[Chapter 162 Chapter 162 Pulse Diagnosis]
Cheng Liyan's impression of Old Man Gu improved a lot after he gave them the prescription.
After hearing these words, I felt that this person was worth making friends with.
When I learned that the old man now had six or seven children, the youngest of whom was only three years old, I felt even more compassionate.
So, I planned to bring some food to the old man tonight.
After listening to her husband's story, Shen Yuyao didn't say anything. She just leaned back and put her face against her husband's bare arm.
It made Cheng Liyan feel itchy and tingling.
He couldn't help but laugh: "What are you doing, sit down."
"Nothing." Shen Yuyao ignored him and just moved closer to his body.
She closed her eyes and felt her whole body surrounded by this man's aura.
This feeling made her feel at ease deep down in her heart.
The young wife twisted the bike here and there, causing Cheng Liyan's handlebars to shake several times.
He looked down at the person in reproach, and then found that she had even closed her eyes.
Isn't this because he's tired?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Cheng Liyan felt a little regretful.
Only then did he realize that his wife should be tired after a day's work.
But even though she was very tired, she was willing to accompany him on this trip. This thought made Cheng Liyan feel happy.
He lowered his head and kissed the top of Shen Yuyao's head, then said, "Sit still and don't move. I'll ride faster and we'll be there soon."
After saying that, he climbed into the car with even more effort.
Cheng Liyan himself didn't even realize that his voice was full of tenderness.
The journey usually takes more than an hour, but today Cheng Liyan arrived in less than fifty minutes.
But even so, it was already past eight o'clock when we arrived.
Electric lights were not widely used in those days and lamp oil was expensive, so the entire city fell asleep at about this time.
The small corridor behind the Chinese medicine hospital was even more silent. It wasn't pitch dark, but it was pretty close.
Shen Yuyao was held by Cheng Liyan's hand and walked for a long time, taking one step deep and one step shallow, before she finally reached the place.
This is the house at the back of the alley.
It is called a house, but in fact it is an illegal building that was expanded outwards by borrowing the eaves of someone else's house.
The room was dark at this time, and it was obvious that everyone inside had fallen asleep.
Cheng Liyan knocked on the door.
There was no movement inside.
Cheng Liyan paused for two minutes, knocked again, and then a hoarse voice came from inside, asking, "Who?"
Cheng Liyan did not answer, but knocked again.
At this time, there was a rustling sound in the room, mixed with a child's mumbling.
After a while, a little light came through the crack in the door, and then the door was opened from the inside.
Then, Shen Yuyao saw an old face full of vigilance.
"Master Gu, it's me." Cheng Liyan moved his face closer to the oil lamp.
Old Man Gu obviously remembered Cheng Liyan.
I saw him froze for a moment, then he cleared his throat and asked, "What do you want this time? Bring me the list."
"No orders." Cheng Liyan said.
After that, he pulled Shen Yuyao forward and said, "I came here this time to ask Doctor Gu to take my wife's pulse and see how she is doing and whether she needs any treatment."
Only then did Old Man Gu see Shen Yuyao who was blocked behind Cheng Liyan.
He first said, "There is no Dr. Gu here. If you want to see a doctor, go to the hospital. There is only one old man Gu here. Do you want to see him?"
"Let's see it." Cheng Liyan said quickly.
Shen Yuyao also nodded.
Only then did Old Man Gu move aside and let the two of them go into the house.
After entering the house, Shen Yuyao found that the house was different from what she had imagined.
Before, when Cheng Liyan returned home, he once said that Old Man Gu made a living by picking up scraps and selling them.
The last time he came, the old man was cleaning the house.
So Shen Yuyao originally thought that this room should be filled with a lot of collected waste, but what she didn't expect was that this room was actually very clean.
The room was clearly divided into two areas.
The area near the door was covered with a curtain made of various scraps of cloth. I guess the collected rags were behind the curtain.
Although the area outside the curtain is not large, things are arranged very neatly.
A bed board made from a waste wooden box was placed along the wall, with a cool mat on it.
At this time, there were three boys lying on the mat, ranging in age from three or four to six or seven years old.
Seeing someone coming in, the three children all opened their eyes and looked at the two with vigilance and curiosity.
The oil lamp was too dim, and Shen Yuyao couldn't see the appearance of the three children clearly, but she knew that they must have been adopted by the old man.
She used her pocket as a cover, took out a few candies from the space, and quietly placed them on the table beside the bed.
She said nothing, put it down and stood next to her husband again.
But Old Man Gu still saw it, and he looked at Shen Yuyao deeply.
"Sit down and put your hands out." Old Man Gu pointed to a bench next to the small table.
Shen Yuyao sat down obediently.
Old Man Gu placed three fingers on Shen Yuyao's wrist.
After a moment, he raised his eyes and looked at the couple again.
Then he signaled to Shen Yuyao to get up.
Then he said to Cheng Liyan: "Sit down."
The reason why Cheng Liyan asked the old man to check his wife's pulse was not only because he really wanted to understand her physical condition, but also to pay the "diagnosis fee"
But he didn't expect that this man would actually treat him.
I'm fine, what disease could I have?
He took a step back and refused, "I'm fine. I'm in good health. Just help my wife."
But the old man Gu said, "Your wife is in much better health than you! Although she was a little weak before, she has recovered well in the past six months."
He said, looking at Shen Yuyao: "Do you know medicine?"
"I don't understand." Shen Yuyao shook her head.
She didn't understand, but someone in her family did.
A'niang had many nourishing recipes suitable for women, and there were several of the best ones in her dowry.
After hearing that she had a poor physical condition, I paid close attention to the meals sent to her home.
Shen Yuyao herself could feel that her body was much better now than when she first came.
Thinking of this, she completely believed that the person in front of her was a real capable person.
Even this kind of thing can be seen.
She immediately pushed Cheng Liyan and signaled him to be obedient and let Doctor Gu take a good look at him.
Cheng Liyan had no choice but to sit down on the small stool.
