Chapter 273 Retirement?
The peaceful days passed one by one. Except for the day of the funeral, Yuan Xiao never saw Hua Jingjing again, as if this person had disappeared in the capital.
In November, the weather gradually became cooler, and good news came from Qushui County again.
He Changlin has confirmed that he will be promoted and will go to Pengcheng to take up his post at the end of the year.
Yuan Xiao knew that the place that had just begun to develop, although it was difficult at the beginning, was also easy to make achievements.
She planned to wait for He Changlin to officially go to Pengcheng to take up his post, and then go to Pengcheng herself.
On this day, Yuan Xiao and Gu Lanting went to Han's house.
Because Gu Lanting received Han Xiaoguang's retirement application, he wanted to go to his house in person to find out what was going on.
Mother Han blamed Gu Lanting and Yuan Xiao for Su Ding and Han Xiaoguang's leg injuries, and was not welcoming of their arrival.
If Han Xiaoguang hadn't stopped her, she could have blasted Yuan Xiao out.
"Have you decided to retire?"
Gu Lanting said in a low voice, looking at Han Xiaoguang with burning eyes.
Han Xiaoguang just smiled bitterly, lowered his eyes and looked at his legs, "Boss, I can't stand up. Even if I stand up with crutches in the future, I can't go to the battlefield."
"We can wait for you! You don't need to rush to apply for retirement. As long as you don't retire, our army will still have your name!"
Han Xiaoguang shook his head, "We are special forces, and special forces don't need useless people."
"You are not!" Gu Lanting roared, staring at him with bloodshot eyes.
Yuan Xiao's heart was entangled with complex emotions, and he held back for a long time before tears fell.
Han Xiaoguang laughed, "Don't be like this, I knew you would look at me like this, that's why I don't like you to visit me, you really make me look like a useless person!"
"You are not! You will definitely get better!" Yuan Xiao said hurriedly.
Han Xiaoguang wiped his face, "Sister-in-law, I don't want you and the boss to feel guilty. In the final analysis, this matter is not your fault at all! But I tell you the truth, my leg can't be healed, I may not be able to stand up in this life!"
Yuan Xiao felt as if he was stabbed by needles in his heart.
No matter what the reason, Han Xiaoguang became like this, it was indeed her reason.
"Are you going to the hospital for a follow-up check now?" Yuan Xiao asked.
Han Xiaoguang took out a cigarette and lit it, "I didn't go to the hospital. My mother found a foreign doctor for me, but the result was similar."
Now he takes a lot of medicine every day and does some strange movements, but it doesn't help at all.
"Have you ever seen Doctor Liu?"
Han Xiaoguang blew out a puff of smoke and shook his head, "No, Western medicine doesn't work, how can Chinese medicine be useful?"
Every time he saw Doctor Liu checking someone's pulse, he felt that he was cheating.
Yuan Xiao's eyes widened, "How do you know it's useless if you haven't tried it? Why don't you go see Doctor Liu and give it a try?"
Although she didn't understand medicine, she had really seen cases of paralysis being cured by Chinese medicine in her previous life.
Before Han Xiaoguang opened his mouth, Han's mother came over and looked at Yuan Xiao coldly: "Don't give my son random advice, he is very stable now. I spent a lot of effort to find Dr. James. If he leaves, can you find me a new one?"
Although Yuan Xiao felt uncomfortable, he still endured it in the end, "Auntie, this doesn't have to be a choice between the two. Combining Chinese and Western medicine is also a very good choice. If Dr. James's method doesn't work, why can't we change to Dr. Liu? More choices mean more opportunities!" Although
she was anxious, her attitude was always polite.
On the other hand, Han's mother was different. Her annoyance with Yuan Xiao was almost written on her face.
"Okay, stop talking. It's none of your business to take care of Xiaoguang's affairs!"
Han Xiaoguang called her helplessly, "Yuanxiao means well, she means no harm."
Han's mother sniffed and turned her face to wipe away her tears.
She has been worrying about this family all her life. She has a son who makes her proud, but he has become like this because of a woman.
No one can be happy.
Yuanxiao stopped talking and pulled Gu Lanting up to say goodbye.
Gu Lanting looked at her depressed look and rubbed her little head, "Don't think too much."
Yuanxiao said in a dejected tone: "I'm not blaming myself, I just think he shouldn't be like this."
Soldiers like Han Xiaoguang are people who swear to dedicate their future to the country.
Retiring now is tantamount to cutting off his future.
"Let's go." Gu Lanting opened the car door.
Yuan Xiao was stunned: "Where are we going?"
"Don't you want to see Doctor Liu?"
Yuan Xiao smiled. The one who knew her best was Gu Lanting.
Yuan Xiao informed Doctor Liu of Han Xiaoguang's current condition, and the result he got was similar to that of the hospital: there was no hope for him.
Yuan Xiao was a little disappointed, "Please think about it again, is there no other possibility?"
Doctor Liu adjusted his glasses and said unhappily, "I didn't see his wound, so I don't know much about his condition, but according to what you said, since Doctor James has already made a conclusion, it is estimated to be difficult."
"Do you know James too?"
Doctor Liu laughed, "Although I am a Chinese medicine practitioner, I still know something about the famous people in the industry. He is indeed an expert in this field."
Yuan Xiao was a little absent-minded. Doctor Liu said so, and Han Xiaoguang's hope was even slimmer.
"Grandpa Liu, are you free to go see Han Xiaoguang?"
Doctor Liu glanced at her. When he was needed, he called him Grandpa Liu, and when he was not needed, he called him Doctor Liu. This child is really flexible.
"If the Han family wanted me to come, they would have invited me long ago. Since they invited James, it means they don't need me."
Dr. Liu saw it very clearly.
In Beijing, he now has a certain reputation, but he was excluded when he was young.
Even now, many people still think that he is actually a liar.
People who don't believe in Chinese medicine will never believe it.
After all, Chinese medicine takes longer to take effect than Western medicine, but people often overlook the fact that Chinese medicine has fewer side effects.
"Next time I go to Han's house, can you accompany me? It's just a visit. I don't have to cure him before I can leave?"
Yuan Xiao hesitated for a long time before Dr. Liu reluctantly agreed to go.
She thanked him excitedly and was about to leave when she heard Dr. Liu say, "There is no free lunch in the world. I need a few kinds of medicinal materials. Do you have any?"
Dr. Liu tore off a page of paper from his notebook and handed it to Yuan Xiao.
Yuan Xiao: "How many kinds do you call this?"
A full page of paper, is that also called a few kinds?
Doctor Liu acted like a rogue. "Anyway, whether I go to the Han family or not depends on whether you give me the herbs."
Yuan Xiao looked at him speechlessly, and put away the list angrily. "I don't have many of them here. I'll give you some first. If you have seeds for the rest, you can give me some and I'll help you plant them."
