Shu Ying could only try to expel the ailment through acupuncture.
She found a row of acupuncture needles in her spatial storage and accurately located the acupoints on Xie Zhiyan's head. Acupuncture requires a high level of skill.
Fortunately, she still remembered what she had learned from the old Chinese medicine practitioners. Shu Ying picked up a one-inch long needle, gently twisted the needle with her thumb and forefinger, and inserted it little by little into the corresponding acupoints.
Perhaps because his head felt the stimulation from the needles, Xie Zhiyan's expression changed slightly.
After the first needle was inserted, Shu Ying inserted a second and a third needle in succession.
The acupoints on the head are relatively easier to find. Once you've found the first few acupoints correctly, the rest will be much easier.
By the time all the needles had been inserted, Xie Zhiyan's head was covered in needles, resembling a hedgehog.
Shu Ying covered him with the blanket again, only to realize that her palms were sticky and she didn't know when she had developed a layer of cold sweat.
After the needles are inserted, they also need to be heated with a heat lamp. Shu Ying glanced at the time on the wall. It takes half an hour after the needles are inserted. Generally, if there is bruising on the head, it is necessary to have the needles inserted for seven consecutive days.
Xie Zhiyan looked pained. Shu Ying sighed softly, pulled over a chair, sat down, and took Xie Zhiyan's hand.
"I know it's not pleasant to get this needle in. If you were healthy, you wouldn't have to suffer like this. Have you learned your lesson this time? If you don't protect yourself, you'll not only suffer from gunfire, but also from the pain of surgery and acupuncture."
She softened as she spoke, her voice gentle and soft, with the accent of the Wu dialect: "Get well soon. I'll bring the children to see you later. It's been so long, and you haven't seen them. Don't you want to see what they look like?"
Shu Ying placed Xie Zhiyan's hand on her cheek and looked down at him.
“I know you’re angry with me. I shouldn’t have said those things to you before, and I shouldn’t have held a grudge against you. I originally planned to slowly cultivate our relationship after we got married, but we haven’t been married long before you went to the front lines. Xie Zhiyan, I’m not such a righteous person. I just hope my husband can be healthy and safe, and I hope my family can be happy.”
As a result, she didn't expect anything else.
From the moment she learned about Xie Zhiyan's job, she knew that the two of them could not stay together forever.
“Your work takes precedence over romance, and you won’t give us time to slowly develop feelings for each other. But when I said before that we weren’t a good match, I was not being sincere.”
She just thought that since the two of them had already become husband and wife, they should live a good life together. If they couldn't stay together forever, then they should at least have a peaceful and lasting relationship.
But they were married for less than three days before the newlyweds separated.
In the years that followed, she had no news of Xie Zhiyan. The only news she heard recently that was widely circulated was that he had sacrificed himself.
She simply couldn't accept such a turbulent and displaced ending.
"I have no experience in dating, so my words might sound a bit harsh. If I apologize, would you be willing to wake up?"
Thinking about these things, Shu Ying couldn't help but blush.
From childhood to adulthood, many people have praised her beauty, but few have pursued her.
I was young then, in my early twenties, with no dating experience and little contact with the opposite sex. Even holding hands or kissing would make me very nervous.
However, things took a sudden turn for the better on their wedding night.
The clock on the wall ticked forward, but Shu Ying's thoughts drifted back to the past.
The red candles flickered, and the bright red "囍" (double happiness) character was reflected in the window.
