After taking her pulse for a while without any response, Mr. Cheng and Mr. Cao looked at her anxiously; when Zhong Yuxiu took her hand away, Mr. Cao started to ask.
"Yuxiu, my Cao Yi..."
Zhong Yuxiu glanced at him and said calmly, "Grandpa Cao, please wait a moment. There is still one person whose pulse has not been taken."
"Okay, okay." Old Master Cao nodded repeatedly, his heart in his throat.
Seeing this, Zhong Yuxiu sighed secretly; Cao Yi stood up and walked away, and then a young man sat down. He was about the same age as Cao Yi. He sat down nervously, put his left hand on the small table, and stared at her.
He didn't miss any expression on her face, but Zhong Yuxiu had experienced many worlds and didn't want others to see it. Others couldn't tell what she was thinking.
After taking the man's pulse, Zhong Yuxiu felt a little more relaxed and spoke to him gently.
"Don't worry, your condition is relatively mild. If you cooperate with the treatment, there won't be any problems."
Old Master Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, but Old Master Cao was not so optimistic; because when Zhong Yuxiu spoke, she was talking to the younger generation of the Cheng family, not to his own Cao Yi.
"Yuxiu, what about my Cao Yi?"
Old Master Yan glanced at them and was also worried; looking at Cao Yi's tender and sallow face, he felt uncomfortable. These were children he had watched grow up, so how could they have such a strange disease?
Zhong Yuxiu said, "Sister Cao Yi's condition is slightly more serious, but don't worry. Start by taking the repair fluid, and then I'll prescribe some medication for her. It will take about three years to heal. If you follow my instructions, even if Sister Cao Yi can't be cured, she can still live a normal life."
Old Master Cao's wide eyes relaxed a little, his straight spine relaxed, and he belatedly patted his chest.
"It's okay, it's okay. My Cao Yi is still young. It would be totally unworthy if he lost his life to this strange disease. Yuxiu, why did they get this disease when they were fine?"
Yuxiu glanced at the young people and spoke after careful consideration, "There are many reasons for liver cirrhosis, such as staying up late, alcoholism, and family heredity. Also, they often eat foods that cause poor liver metabolism. In short, there are many reasons. If we want to find the specific cause, we have to search slowly."
"So they can no longer live on their old eating habits?"
"Yes, try to eat lighter foods and avoid oily foods. Also, drinking alcohol and staying up late is absolutely forbidden, as it will aggravate the condition."
"Okay, I've got that. Yuxiu, please write them a prescription. When we get back, we'll go straight to the hospital to get the medicine and buy two more bottles of repair fluid." Old Master Cheng quickly continued, then looked at his younger generation. "Did you hear that? You young people don't take care of your bodies. You've gotten yourself sick at such a young age. People of our older generation weren't like you, yet you're even worse off than us."
The younger generations blushed and nodded in agreement, promising that they would never do it again.
It was common for these young people to stay up late and drink, and they would even form teams to go on adventures in search of excitement. Think about it, at that time, there was no excitement for them to find. They could hardly even save their lives, and all they thought about every day was how to fight the Japanese.
Cao Yi blushed, and even though his face was pale, it was clearly visible.
They really shouldn't have gotten so sick. It's strange, they often play together, why are she and another person, Cheng's brother, the only ones who got this disease? It's so embarrassing.
"Yuxiu! There is one that hasn't been checked yet. They often run together. Could you please check them too?" Old Master Cheng spoke.
Zhong Yuxiu glanced at the two of them and nodded, "Okay."
After the other man from the Cheng family sat down, Zhong Yuxiu took his pulse briefly and looked at his pupils and complexion. After taking his pulse again, she spoke.
"He's fine, just a little damaged in his internal organs. He'll be fine after some nourishment."
Old Master Cheng felt a little better. After all, not everyone suffered from this disease.
"Yuxiu, how can we make him better?"
"Eat a normal diet, with plenty of vegetables and fruits, and don't forget to eat meat. In the future, try not to drink alcohol, smoke less, and exercise more whenever you can."
"Okay, I will definitely supervise them." Old Master Cheng felt relieved and couldn't help cursing, "What are these little bastards doing all day? They don't do their work, they don't study well, and they just want to play."
And I came back with this disease.
Mr. Cao was relatively calm and had no intention of scolding his granddaughter in public. Instead, he was more concerned about what his granddaughter should do in the future.
"Yuxiu, will this disease affect your future marriage and childbirth?"
Her gaze fell on Cao Yi, and Zhong Yuxiu spoke slowly, "It's possible. This disease is hereditary. A child might inherit the mother's pathological genes for various reasons. Of course, there's also a chance that they won't inherit it. The probability is fifty-fifty."
"this......."
Grandpa Cao looked at his granddaughter helplessly. Cao Yi felt sad and said with his head down, "Grandpa, don't think too much. At worst, I can just not get married. I can live well on my own. Besides, I have you, my parents, and my brother. I won't be any worse off than others if I don't get married."
"You see it clearly." Old Master Cao glared at her unhappily.
Zhong Yuxiu looked up at Gu Lingguo and said, "Comrade Gu, could you please get me the medicine box? I'll write them a prescription."
"I'll be there right away." Gu Lingguo turned and left. When he got outside, he remembered that he didn't know where Zhong Yuxiu's medicine box was. He turned back and said, "Comrade Zhong, where is your medicine box?"
"You ask like a mountain."
Gu Lingguo nodded and left again. After about ten minutes, he came back with a wooden box. Zhong Yuxiu took it and put it on the table. After opening it, she took out a small notebook and pen for writing prescriptions.
In the 1980s, prescriptions were basically written down, and there was no very fixed pattern; Zhong Yuxiu wrote their prescriptions and handed them to them, and then took out two medicines from the box and gave them to them.
"Take these two and use them."
Grandpa Cao and Grandpa Cheng looked grateful. These two must have been made by Zhong Yuxiu herself. They didn't have such medicines, and perhaps only the Yan family had used them.
"Yuxiu, thank you so much. Let's work out how much it costs. I don't want you to work in vain."
"Grandpa Cao, Grandpa Cheng, you two are being too polite. Not only do we have a close relationship with my grandfather, but we also have a close relationship with Rushan, Cheng Minglang, and Cao Zheng. We shouldn't accept this money. It's just a small favor. Don't think too much about it, and don't even think about paying it back."
"You and Grandpa understand the relationship between our families best. It's not like we won't interact anymore. Only interactions can last a long time. Don't you agree?"
As soon as these words were spoken, both Mr. Cao and Mr. Cheng's eyes were red.
