One after another, acupuncture needles were inserted into Uncle Xu's head. After about fifteen minutes, Li Xiyue removed the needles and asked, "How do you feel?"
Uncle Xu felt much better and stroked his beard excitedly. "Girl, when did you figure out I had headaches?"
"I could tell when we were talking," Li Xiyue replied as she put the silver needles back.
Uncle Xu nodded approvingly, "Not bad, your skills are top-notch."
"However, your headaches are a chronic condition that cannot be cured in a short time. If you don't mind, I can give you acupuncture every day to relieve the symptoms and reduce the frequency of attacks."
"I'm overjoyed that you don't mind." Uncle Xu was extremely satisfied. "You have the heart of a doctor, you're a rare find."
"You flatter me. I'm just trying not to disappoint my grandfather's teachings," Li Xiyue said modestly.
Uncle Xu nodded. "Your maternal grandfather must have been a great doctor."
Li Xiyue smiled. "Yes, he is."
"That girl, I'll have to trouble you from now on," Uncle Xu said with a smile, stroking his beard.
Li Xiyue: "No trouble at all."
After the people left, Uncle Xu called into the house, "Come out."
A robust and tall young man walked out, his face still calm and expressionless, but the change in his eyes could not hide the turmoil in his heart.
Uncle Xu looked at him and said, "Now you believe that people are different, right?"
"Just because of this one thing?"
Uncle Xu rolled his eyes. "You're just being stubborn." He went back into the house, took out a few packets of medicine, and threw them at him. "Take the medicine and get out of here. Don't get in my way."
“Grandpa, you don’t treat Sister Li Zhiqing like this at all,” Xu Guoqing said, sticking his head out of the window of another room.
Uncle Xu looked disgusted. "If you had half her skills, I would speak to you kindly. But do you deserve it?"
"I'm not worthy." Xu Guoqing turned his head back and slammed the window shut. After a while, his complaints could still be heard, "Then don't force me to study medicine. I want to join the army."
Seeing that Xu Xiangyang's expression had visibly changed, Uncle Xu picked up a broom from the side and threw it at him.
With a loud bang, the broom slammed against the window, but there was no sound from inside the room.
Xu Xiangyang took the medicine, turned around, and left, his steps hurried and fast, as if someone was chasing him.
Uncle Xu raised his hand as if to say something to him, but in the end he didn't say anything and watched him disappear outside the courtyard.
"Grandpa, the broom." Xu Guoqing walked over with the broom and handed it to his grandfather with a guilty look on his face.
Uncle Xu got angry just looking at him, snatched the broom and swung it at him, "You little brat, how dare you talk like that? Do you think you can mention the word 'soldier' in front of him? I'll beat you up, you forgetful brat!"
Xu Guoqing was beaten and ran all over the yard, still begging for mercy, "Grandpa, I was wrong, Grandpa, please don't hit me, Grandpa, go easy on me, I'm your own grandson!"
Back at the educated youth settlement, Huang Xinrui was already back and cooking dinner in the kitchen. "Xinrui, you're back so soon?"
"Yes, my aunt's family is all at work, so I can't be late for too long." Huang Xinrui rolled up her sleeves, working very skillfully, it seemed she had done a lot of work at home.
"Yueyue, let's cook for Wang Zhiqing tonight."
Li Xiyue agreed, "My cooking skills are definitely not as good as yours, so I'll help you out."
"You don't need to lift a finger, I can do it all by myself."
How can I let you cook for yourself?
Huang Xinrui said, "Then you help me start the fire."
Li Xiyue agreed and went to the stove.
Li Xiyue still knew how to use this kind of earthen stove. During the apocalypse, it was mostly used for cooking, and she was very skilled at it.
First, light the fire with dry leaves, then add some dry firewood, and the fire will be burning in no time.
"Oh, you're already cooking?" Wang Jiaxing came back from work and smelled the aroma of food as he walked in with a smile.
Li Xiyue replied, "You work so hard, we're just relaxing, we can't expect you to cook for us."
