Liu Jun saw that Luo Zhentian and Zhou Dabao were relaxed and comfortable, and that they had a special relationship with the owner of the clinic. Remembering what he had just instructed his nephew, he suddenly felt his throat dry and his legs trembling.
"When my father was alive, he often told me that you two were his best friends. After all these years, you two old gentlemen are still so strong. You are really vigorous in your old age! It's a pity that my father was unlucky and passed away early. Alas..."
Although Liu Jun was afraid of dealing with these two old men, he had to say polite words. After all, even if they had retired to the second line, they were still more important than himself, a ninth-rank official. If he offended them, he would not have to buy shoes for the rest of his life. There were many people who would give them to him, and they were all small shoes!
Liu Li also lay sickly on the chaise longue, grinning and nodding, trying to make peace with the two old men.
When Liu Lizheng was alive, the two brothers were flattered wherever they went. It all came down to the father respecting the son. Without Liu Lizheng, who would have known who Liu Jun and Liu Li were? After Liu Lizheng's death, the brothers tried to connect with their father's former subordinates, but those old leaders were all shrewd and had long since disliked the two boys for being unlearned and unfilial, even to their own father. They were too busy avoiding them, so who would dare approach them?
Unable to curry favor with their father's former colleagues, the brothers could only hang out with those of their own level, akin to playing chess with a weak opponent. The more they played, the worse they became, and it was difficult for them to achieve anything. Over the years, Liu Jun had reached deputy bureau level, but it was difficult to climb any higher. He regretted that his father had died early, so he hadn't been able to support him for a few more years.
Today, they accidentally met two great gods, Luo Zhentian and Zhou Dabao. Liu Jun and Liu Li both had their own plans. If they could curry favor with one of them, they would be able to rise to the top in the future!
Luo Zhentian didn't say anything and continued to sip his tea. Zhou Dabao, however, said sarcastically, "We are indeed more fortunate than Liu Lizheng. We have obedient and filial children and grandchildren. Unlike him, not only did raising a son fail to provide for his old age, but he also has to clean up the mess for his son. What a miserable life!"
Liu Jun's face turned awkward after hearing Zhou Dabao's words. "Uh... what Old Master Zhou was saying is that my brother and I were indeed ignorant when we were young. We got into a lot of trouble and made my father worry about it. It was truly a sin! A sin!"
"Young? You were almost 40 when your father died. His toes were rotten and you didn't even go to visit him. You're such a fucking jerk!"
“…”
Qingshan walked to the imperial concubine's bed, carefully observed Liu Li's condition, and took his pulse. It was indeed that his large intestine meridian was damaged and his spleen was not functioning properly.
Liu Jun took the opportunity to escape Zhou Dabao's criticism and ran to Qingshan, waiting for her to announce the results. Qingshan finished taking Liu Li's pulse, wiped her hands with a handkerchief, returned to the desk, and began to write the medical records.
Liu Jun followed him with a lecherous look on his face and asked, "Doctor Chen, how is my brother's illness..." Although Liu Jun was not filial to his father, he cared very much about his brothers.
"The lungs govern the skin and fur, and they are also the exterior and interior of the large intestine. Your brother's lungs were unable to dissipate the turbid air, causing toxins to accumulate in the hand-yangming large intestine meridian, leading to intense heat and poison in the intestines. At this point, if scraping the toxins out of the large intestine meridian could have been used, you could have recovered. However, it just so happened that your brother also took a lot of antibiotics, which damaged the body fluids in the intestines and caused a severe cold. The cold and heat counteracted each other, damaging the large intestine meridian, causing gastrointestinal dysfunction and an inability to digest food."
Liu Jun exclaimed, "Ouch!" and gave Qingshan a thumbs-up. He said, "My brother really did have lung disease first, and then he became like this! You're truly a miracle doctor! I wonder if this treatment..."
Qingshan didn't even raise his head as he wrote, "Boil the Ren Zhong Huang in water, take it three times a day for fourteen days, and you will be cured!"
