Chapter 107 The Filial Eldest Son
"You are my biological father. I certainly cannot charge you for medical treatment. The prescription is also free, but you have to pay for the herbs. I need ginseng, ganoderma lucidum, gastrodia elata, etc. They have to be wild and very expensive." Jiang Hanyan spoke very nicely, and Jiang's father was quite pleased to hear it. He thought this rebellious girl had some conscience.
"The only thing that can cure me is ginseng and ganoderma lucidum."
Father Jiang was a little worried, and worried that the little money he had was not enough, so he asked, "How much does it cost to cure my illness?"
"It's impossible to cure you completely. There's something wrong with your tendons. I can only relieve your symptoms. It will definitely relapse in the future, and you still need to take medicine." Jiang Hanyan said.
Jiang's father's face changed. He couldn't be cured? Was he suffering from a terminal illness?
"How about I go to the provincial capital to have a look?" Jiang's father said to himself. He felt that the rebellious girl's ability was still not good enough and the disease could not be cured.
Jiang Hanyan snorted coldly, "You met me. If it were someone else, they wouldn't even be able to find out what's wrong with you. I'm saying this. Even if you go to the provincial capital, you won't be able to find out what's wrong with you. They will say that you are healthy and have no problems at all, but you are actually terminally ill. If you don't take my medicine, you will be paralyzed in a year at most, and you will die in a few years."
Jiang's father's heart sank to the bottom. What the rebellious girl said was as if she had seen it with her own eyes. The doctor at the People's Hospital said that there was nothing wrong with him and even said that he was mentally ill. It seemed that the rebellious girl's medical skills were better, at least she was right about the symptoms.
"Hanyan, will you really become paralyzed if you don't take the medicine?" Jiang's mother asked in a low voice.
"Of course, at most a year. Except for the head that can move, everything below is stiff." Jiang Hanyan lied without changing his expression.
Father Jiang's face turned pale as he imagined himself lying miserably on the bed with his feces and urine all over the bed. He would rather die than live like this.
"Then how much does it cost to cure my disease?"
Jiang Hanyan pretended to calculate and said, "Five thousand. I've already told you that you have a disease of affluence. As long as you take the medicine, you can eat, drink, and kill pigs just like normal."
Father Jiang felt both relieved and distressed. He just happened to have 5,000 yuan in his hand, and his pockets were not even warm yet. But fortunately he had the money so he could get treatment.
"I'm taking medicine, when can I get it?"
Father Jiang made up his mind that he must take the medicine. He didn't want to be a useless person. He would earn money again after he lost it.
"I'll send you down tomorrow. I'll give you a few injections first. It will help relieve the pain at night."
Jiang Hanyan took out silver needles and a candle, and sterilized them by roasting them over fire. Then she pierced several harmless acupuncture points on Jiang's father's body. After half an hour, she removed the needles one by one.
"These injections can temporarily relieve your symptoms. It's better to take medicine. I'll prepare the medicine tonight and send it home tomorrow."
Father Jiang didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but he felt a lot more relaxed. It seemed that the injections from Ni Nu were really effective.
"Give me money to buy medicine."
Jiang Hanyan stretched out her hand to ask for money.
Father Jiang looked hesitant, but he finally took out a thousand yuan from his bag and said, "These are all I have with me. I'll give you the rest later."
"Why later? Just give it to me tomorrow when I deliver the medicine. I'll go buy the medicine later and I'll have to pay for it for you." Jiang Hanyan sneered secretly. Don't even think about evading her money.
"Give it to me tomorrow."
Father Jiang didn't dare to offend her now, because the life-saving medicine still had to be prepared by this dead girl. Although he felt sorry for the money, he felt more sorry for his own life.
"Okay, I have two packs of good cigarettes, given to Lu Chen by someone else. Mom, come with me to get them."
Jiang Hanyan winked at Jiang's mother, who understood and followed her into the house. Jiang's father was sitting in the yard.
"Two drops tonight, remember that."
Jiang Hanyan picked up two packs of cigarettes at random and told Jiang's mother not to make any mistakes.
"I know. Two drops."
Jiang's mother nodded. She was no longer as panicked as before. She went out calmly, handed two packs of cigarettes to Jiang's father, and the two of them rode a motorcycle back home.
In the evening, Jiang's father had dinner as usual, and then the familiar feeling of dizziness came again, but this time he felt much better than yesterday. He was only dizzy for a few minutes, and his hands and feet were not as numb as yesterday.
"That damn girl is really capable. Those few injections are quite effective."
Jiang's father couldn't believe it. Ni Nu's medical skills were unexpectedly good. Who did this damn girl learn from? "If Han Yan didn't have real skills, those big bosses wouldn't ask her to see a doctor. When the medicine is prepared tomorrow, your illness will be cured." Jiang's mother was relieved. Her daughter didn't lie to her. The medicine had no side effects and was very effective.
It's great that she doesn't have to be divorced and can earn 500 yuan.
Jiang's father snorted and refused to praise his rebellious daughter in front of his wife, but he was convinced in his heart and even a little proud. Others said that he had no son, but his daughter was very capable and better than other people's sons.
If he had known that this rebellious girl was so powerful, he would have found a son-in-law for her. But it is not too late now. After he recovers from his illness, he will tell the rebellious girl that the first child born will have the surname Jiang, so that the Jiang family's bloodline will not be cut off.
After dinner, Jiang Hanyan was still busy in the kitchen. She ground licorice into powder, mixed it with flour, added some honey, and kneaded it into finger-sized balls. She steamed them in a pot and then dried them. They turned into gray-brown pills that exuded a medicinal smell.
"What is this for?" Lu Chen was very curious.
He ate licorice as a snack when he was a child. It was a little sweet, but the taste was weird. His grandfather said that he had a hot temper and eating licorice could reduce heat and detoxify, so he told him to chew a few sticks whenever he had nothing to do.
"My father's life-saving medicine, one hundred and fifty per pill."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Jiang Hanyan blinked and put the dried pills into the bottle. There were thirty pills in total. One pill a day was just right.
Lu Chen almost choked. Just a ball made of flour and licorice, 150 yuan per ball? Even more shady than profiteers! "What happened to your father?" Lu Chen was more curious about what disease his cheap father-in-law had.
"Nothing, he's just a playboy. Give him some treatment."
Jiang Hanyan shrugged. A man's fickle mind is caused by money. The best remedy is to cut off his money. He will be obedient if he has no money in his pocket.
She told him about how Jiang's father had secretly saved up some private money in order to change his wife and have a son. "My mother was so annoyed by all the crying, so I just took the money. Five thousand yuan, I gave five hundred to my mother, and I made a net profit of four thousand five hundred. These licorice pills are very good to eat, they clear away heat, reduce fire and detoxify. I am really filial."
Lu Chen twitched his lips. What a filial daughter! "What medicine did you give your father?"
"It's a knockout drug. Even the best equipment in the hospital can't detect it. It has no side effects on the body. Scare my dad again and he'll pay the money."
After saying that, Jiang Hanyan made a needle-piercing gesture to Lu Chen and scared him, "Don't offend the doctor, or you'll die without knowing how. Be polite to me in the future, okay?"
"Know."
Lu Chen held back his laughter and nodded in cooperation.
"Don't disbelieve me, I'm very powerful!"
Jiang Hanyan snorted. He still didn’t believe it. Humph, I’ll make this guy inhumane in a minute.
"You are the best. Let me tell you something. Can you change the bottle?" Lu Chen suggested sincerely.
"what?"
"This bottle was where my grandfather used to store rat poison." Lu Chen explained kindly.
His grandfather would make his own rat poison, always making a large bottle, which would last for a long time. Who knew that Jiang Hanyan happened to find this bottle.
It’s not that he was reluctant to part with the bottle, but he was afraid that something might happen to his cheap father-in-law.
