"Xiaoxiao is our niece! She made you take your pants off so she could better administer acupuncture to treat you. What are you still being so stubborn about?"
All that could be heard was Aunt Shen's loud voice, booming like a bell, coming from outside the door, making the whole room seem to tremble slightly.
Inside the room, Uncle Shen stood there, his face flushed red, completely at a loss for what to do, muttering, "Oh dear, I'm just embarrassed! After all, I'm a grown man, after all..."
As he spoke, he kept scratching the back of his head, looking extremely embarrassed and helpless.
At this moment, Aunt Shen rushed into the house in a flurry of activity. As soon as she stood at the doorway, she blocked most of the light that was streaming into the room.
She glared at Uncle Shen and snapped, "Alright, alright! Stop nagging. I'm all here now. Hurry up and take off your pants so my little niece can give you a proper treatment."
After saying that, she put her hands on her hips, striking a pose that left no room for argument.
However, Uncle Shen still hesitated and slowly reached out to undo his belt.
Seeing his dawdling, the impatient Aunt Shen finally couldn't hold back any longer. She rushed forward and, without saying a word, yanked Uncle Shen's pants down.
"Oh my god! That's finally done, stop dawdling like that!"
Aunt Shen clapped her hands, then turned to look at Shen Xiaoxiao beside her, her tone suddenly becoming incredibly gentle, "Little niece, do you think we should let him lie down on the bed first?"
Shen Xiaoxiao watched the two people interacting with great interest, a smile on her face. When she heard her aunt's question, she nodded gently and replied, "That's right, Aunt Liu."
She carefully placed all the silver needles one by one into the sterilization box, making sure that each needle was thoroughly sterilized.
The radiant smile that had been on his face gradually faded, replaced by a look of focus and seriousness.
She narrowed her eyes, precisely aimed at the acupoints, and then, without hesitation, firmly inserted the silver needle into her hand.
Time passed second by second, and fine beads of sweat gradually covered Shen Xiaoxiao's forehead, like crystal clear pearls.
However, she was not bothered by the sweat at all and continued to concentrate on operating the silver needles in her hands.
Finally, after the last silver needle was successfully inserted into the corresponding acupoint, Shen Xiaoxiao gently flicked the end of the needle with her finger.
In an instant, all the silver needles seemed to come alive and began to tremble slightly.
Aunt Shen stared intently at the scene from beginning to end, her mouth agape in astonishment, her eyes wide as saucers.
She kept muttering, "Oh my god, this is amazing! My little doctor's medical skills are simply incredible!"
The trembling of the silver needles lasted for about ten seconds, and then, as if given a command, they stopped trembling one by one.
Just then, Shen Xiaoxiao, who had been keeping a close eye on the silver needles, made a swift move and pulled out all the silver needles one by one.
She gently placed the used silver needles into a container of alcohol to continue the sterilization process.
Then, she looked up at Uncle Shen lying on the bed and said softly, "Uncle, you can get up and move around now. Please get dressed first."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Shen hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Shen Xiaoxiao's hand, and asked with concern, "Niece, how is your uncle's leg being treated? What else do we need to do?"
Shen Xiaoxiao replied seriously, "So far, the acupuncture treatment has gone relatively smoothly. However, you will still need to come for acupuncture once a week for a total of seven treatments."
"Another very important point is about Uncle Liu's stomach. He absolutely cannot continue to starve himself like this. If he continues like this, his health will suffer sooner or later."
Then she added, "Sixth Aunt, judging from your complexion, you must be the same. Don't think about saving it for Sixth Uncle. If Sixth Uncle isn't better yet, and you get into even bigger problems, that would be troublesome."
"Don't worry! Aunt Liu knows what's important. This stomach problem is probably from the famine a few years ago. Now the family's conditions aren't so bad. Although we can't eat white flour every day, we have food to eat every meal," Aunt Liu said.
