Chapter 191: Demonstrating Medical Skills

Otherwise, if a group of them were eating and drinking in the cafeteria, those who didn't understand what was going on would wonder if they were eating on a stove.

It would be better to light the stove in the dormitory and cook, and then bring the staple food back from the cafeteria.

Zhao Yue came back to get his things and took Su Jinxia with him, taking the small path to the dormitory.

I remember that when he first came here to serve in the army, he also lived here, with 6 people in one dormitory.

After his promotion, he was given a new place to live. If he hadn't often had to get up in the middle of the night to lead the troops in training, he wouldn't have wanted to move out. These people were very nice to him and would think of him when they had something delicious to eat. Otherwise, he wouldn't have grown more than 10 centimeters in a year.

I entered the familiar house and everything was still the same as when I left, except that the bed I used to sleep in was now occupied by someone else.

The room was clean and tidy, and there was smoke coming out of the stove.

Old Yuan used a hook to open the stove cover and looked, "Xiao Liu, the fire is very good today. This fire is perfect for cooking."

Then everyone started to work hard and soon put the fish, prawns, oysters and clams in the pot. All they had to do was boil the water.

Old Xie took out a bottle of white wine from his suitcase and said, "How can good food be served without wine?"

"I was wondering why you had to bring the peanuts back. It turns out you hid the wine there." Old Yuan snatched the bottle from him, opened the lid with his teeth, and then took a bowl and poured himself a small half bowl of wine.

“The feeling is back. It’s so comfortable.”

"It's because you can drink. If you had known this earlier, the wine would have been lost long ago. I was thinking of drinking some during our New Year's party, and today is a good day, so let's just take it out and drink it!"

"You are still scheming! This wine is strong and tastes good!"

Zhao Yue picked up the wine bottle and poured some into the pot.

"It just so happens that there is wine to remove the fishy smell!"

"Oh, what a waste! I brought cooking wine." Old Yuan is addicted to wine and is reluctant to waste a drop of it.

It was a rare chance for me to have a game today, and I had a bottle of good wine. I craned my neck to look at the pot and said, "What a pity, what a pity!"

"Master, do you like drinking so much?" Su Jinxia asked.

"Yes! I like drinking. If you two want to give me gifts, just remember to give them to me!" Old Yuan said shamelessly, "I don't like anything else, I just like wine."

"Old people should drink less." Zhao Yue covered the pot. "Your hands are shaking more than before. I know you've been drinking a lot in recent years."

"These are just minor problems. You know I'm a heavy drinker. I never drink when I'm working, but I definitely drink a little when I'm resting. Otherwise, life would be boring and I'd feel like something is missing." Old Yuan said and sat down. "I'll retire next year and you won't see me anymore. Then no one will control me. I can drink as much as I want."

There is a hint of arrogance in the last sentence.

This sentence made everyone silent. One cannot work in the army for a lifetime, even for Lao Yuan. He has been in the army for 25 years, starting from the age of 15, and is now 40 years old.

He was one of the first soldiers to live on the island, and it can be said that he dedicated all his youth here.

The weather on the island was unpredictable, and his legs would ache every winter. Everyone knew this very well.

Su Jinxia, ​​"I can cure your right hand, but you should drink less wine."

"You know medical skills?" Old Yuan felt incredible. The pretty girl looked about 20 years old.

"If you know a little, learn from an old Chinese medicine practitioner. I can give you acupuncture. In about three days, your hand will be healed." Su Jinxia was able to say it so readily, but she also exaggerated the time. In fact, two days is enough, and three days will be enough to consolidate the healing.

After all, his hands were only shaking slightly, not very heavy.

For people who drink alcohol for a long time, the nerves in their hands are most likely to be damaged.

"If it can really be cured, then I'm willing to give it a try." Lao Yuan looked at his shaking right hand. If it could recover to normal, could he delay it for another year next year?

He really treats this place as his home. Living alone all his life, it is hard for him to imagine how he would live if he returned to his hometown.

He has no wife or children. This place is everything to him. If possible, he would like to stay here for the rest of his life and be buried here after his death.

"But you can't drink today. I will give you acupuncture after dinner!" Su Jinxia said and looked at Lao Yuan.

The person who took out the bottle quickly took the wine back, "Then let's be obedient and not drink today. It's good to just eat some food!"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

A group of people around him echoed that they also wanted Lao Yuan's good hands and wanted to drink whenever they wanted.

Old Yuan knew that he couldn't persuade this group of people, "Okay, I'll drink after my hand is healed, then we'll eat vegetables today.

These clams are hard to catch. How did you catch such a big basin? It must be five or six kilograms, right?"

Su Jinxia, ​​"It's actually very simple. Just shovel the soil on the beach. If you see a small hole, sprinkle some salt around it. The clams will sense the saltiness and come out automatically.

As for the crabs and scallops, I found them in the cracks between the rocks. Not many people come to this area of ​​the sea, so you can find them if you look patiently. "

They were stunned; they didn't expect it to be so easy.

"It seems that we were negligent. We only focused on training and didn't know the details around us. We missed a lot of delicious food."

"Isn't it?"

A group of people were chattering and cooking one dish after another. At 8 o'clock, all the dishes were finally ready.

Eight people sat around a simple table and enjoyed the meal very much.

We didn't finish the party until after 9 o'clock and finished eating everything.

The diligent people cleaned up the mess and took the things to the washroom for washing.

Old Yuan was lying on the bed, and Su Jinxia was giving him acupuncture.

Looking at his hands densely covered with dozens of needles, which looked scary but not painful, he knew that this girl was really capable.

Otherwise, how could it not hurt when the needle is inserted into the flesh!

"Girl, I underestimated you before. Your medical skills are amazing."

"I happen to have research interests in acupuncture."

"That's great. You can develop in the field of traditional Chinese medicine in the future. You will definitely have a bright future."

"Thanks to your words, I will continue to study medicine in the future. This way, I can cure any headache or fever at home."

"You're absolutely right." Old Yuan completely relaxed, and after saying this, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

They all felt incredible after watching it.

In fact, Lao Yuan loves drinking because he suffers from unbearable pain in his joints. He can have a good sleep after drinking. In their impression, it is very rare for him to fall asleep directly like this.

They didn't dare to speak, for fear of disturbing Lao Yuan.
