“Can I have a look at the prescriptions? I have a relative who is also paralyzed. He still hasn’t regained any movement,” said the middle-aged man who showed his true purpose of visit.

“Okay, I’ll get them for you,” said He Xiuhua as she went to the bedroom to fetch the medications for the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man took a close look at the medications and wrote down the name.

“Well, thank you, take care. I’ll buy you some beer when you are better,” said the middle-aged man.

“Okay, thanks,” said Wang Fengxiang with a smile.

Wang Fengxiang was relaxed. He was no longer as grumpy and stressful as before. After all, he had seen hope in his life, which was no longer gloomy. He had left all the negative feelings behind for now.

“I don’t think those medications are going to work,” said He Xiuhua after the middle-aged man had left with a smile.

“Well, he is not our first visitor since I got better,” said Wang Fengxiang.

Five people had visited Wang Fengxiang before him.

“Why do you think Yao doesn’t want people to know he’s a wonderful doctor?” said He Xiuhua.

“Young people like him have their own thoughts. No matter what is going to happen, we will keep in mind forever that he cured me,” said Wang Fengxiang.

“You are right,” said He Xiuhua.

Meanwhile, Wang Yao was brewing a decoction on Nanshan hill. He was brewing Deworming powder for Wei Hai.

He wanted to get everything done before leaving for Beijing.

He needed to see several patients of his before he left. Most of those patients were in Lianshan town center, except for Secretary Yang’s mother.

After he had finished brewing the decoction, he drove to Lianshan town center the next morning.

Wei Hai’s tea shop had no change. Wei Hai kept his tea shop open but didn’t sell any teas. He just laid down on his couch, drank tea and listened to zither tunes.

“How relaxed you are!” said Wang Yao.

“Hey, how come you are here? Please come in and sit down. What tea would you like?” Wei Hai immediately stood up after he had seen Wang Yao.

Wei Hai’s face was shiny, he had put on weight, and his voice was powerful. These were all indicators of his recovery.

“How have you been feeling recently?” asked Wang Yao.

“I feel good, very good. I’m getting fitter, so I’m always in a good mood. Now I don’t do anything else other than practicing Tai Chi and listening to old tunes.

In fact, he still went back to Haiqu often. Although he had given up his career, he had his family and children in Haiqu. He was very attached to his children. It would be a lie to say he didn’t care about them. Interestingly, the business in his company was getting better and better since he was not in charge. His company made more money nowadays than the time when he was in charge.

“Let me take a look at you,” said Wang Yao as he sat down to check Wei Hai’s pulse. “Good, you are almost fully recovered,” said Wang Yao. “This is the decoction I brewed for you.”

Wang Yao took out the decoction and told Wei Hai how much he should take each day. Wang Yao increased the dose this time in order to get rid of the poisonous parasites hiding deep in Wei Hai’s liver. It wouldn’t work if the dose was not increased.

“Okay, thank you,” said Wei Hai.

Wang Yao stayed at Wei Hai’s shop for a short while. He was ready to leave for Tian Yuantu’s office after he had finished drinking a cup of green tea.

“Hey, don’t bother going there, ask them to come here. I’ll invite you guys for lunch,” said Wei Hai.

“Sounds good,” said Wang Yao after thinking for a moment.

Wei Hai made a few calls. A moment later, Tian Yuantu, Zhou Xiong, Zhou Wukang, Wang Mingbao and Li Maoshuang all came to Wei Hai’s tea shop. The quiet shop suddenly became alive.

“Yao, are you going to Beijing again?” asked Li Maoshuang.

“Yes, I will probably stay a bit longer this time,” said Wang Yao.

He would stay in Beijing for at least a week, maybe longer.

He checked Tian Yuantu’s pulse first. He was still skinny, but he looked better. His eyes were also brighter.

“Good, you are getting better,” said Wang Yao.

Then Wang Yao gave Tian Yuantu a massage as a type of adjuvant therapy.

“My wife has been learning how to do massages from an elderly Chinese Traditional Medicine Practitioner,” said Tian Yuantu with a smile.

“Chinese massage?” asked Wang Yao.

“Yes, can she learn from you when you are available?” said Tian Yuantu.

“Sure,” said Wang Yao with a smile.

He then checked Zhou Wukang’s pulse. Zhou Wukang had taken the decoction in the morning. Zhou Xiong had also given his son a massage using his own method, but Wang Yao’s unique method apparently worked better.

It was noon by the time Wang Yao had seen all his patients. All of them had lunch together in the Health Cuisine Restaurant before separating.

Noon was the hottest time of the day during the summer. It was necessary to take a break at noon.

Wang Yao didn’t linger. He drove home after arranging a time to meet Tian Yuantu in Haiqu the next day.

When he got home, he found his mother’s younger brother was visiting. He didn’t look happy.

“Hello, Uncle,” said Wang Yao.

“Hello, Yao, you are back,” said Wang Yao’s uncle.

“How are you?” said Wang Yao.

After chatting with his uncle for a while, Wang Yao knew the purpose of his uncle’s visit.

His uncle wanted to borrow money from him.

His uncle’s father-in-law needed a cardiovascular stent surgery. He had just bought a house, and most of the money for the house was borrowed from Wang Yao. Therefore, he couldn’t provide financial support to his father-in-law. He had to borrow more money from Wang Yao.

“Cardiovascular blockage?” asked Wang Yao.

“Yes, he almost had a Myocardial Infarction. Fortunately, we took him to the hospital in time,” said Wang Yao’s uncle.

Wang Yao had seen his uncle’s father-in-law, who was a forthright person. He could drink a lot of alcohol without getting drunk and was very outspoken.

“Okay, I’ll get the money for you,” said Wang Yao.

His uncle told Wang Yao how much he would like to borrow. Wang Yao drove to the town center to take out 30 thousand yuan for his uncle without hesitation.

His uncle didn’t stay for lunch. He left in a hurry with the money.

“Is his father-in-law’s condition curable?” asked Zhang Xiuying.

“I’m not sure. It depends on how serious the condition is,” said Wang Yao.

“Go see him when you are available. He’s currently in the hospital,” said Zhang Xiuying. After all, it was her younger brother. She said she wouldn’t be involved in any of his business, but she still tried to help him.

“Sure,” said Wang Yao.

He went back to Nanshan hill after dinner.

He had finished brewing Sanyang powder. He planned to visit Haiqu the next day and tried to get back in the morning so that he could go to the hospital.

People normally visited patients in the morning as it would bring good luck to them.

Wang Yao got up very early the next morning. He drove to Haiqu to meet Tian Yuantu.

Tian Yuantu and Wang Yao went to see Secretary Yang’s mother. Wang Yao checked her pulse as soon as he saw her. Secretary Yang’s mother had been recovering well, and the decoctions worked well for her. The accumulated cold evil in her body was disappearing like ice melting in the spring. The color on her face also looked nice.

After leaving the decoction to Secretary Yang’s mother, Wang Yao declined her invitation for lunch and left.

It was past 11 am when Wang Yao had gone back to Lianshan town center. He then bought some gifts to see his uncle’s father-in-law in the hospital.

His uncle was not in the hospital, but his wife was. She was pregnant for months and was showing quite obviously.

“Yao?” His uncle’s wife didn’t expect Wang Yao would visit the hospital.

“Hello, Auntie, Grandpa,” said Wang Yao as he put the presents on the table.

Wang Yao sat down to talk with his uncle’s wife and her father, who told Wang Yao that a specialist from Shanghai would arrive at the hospital on Monday to conduct the surgery.

“Can I take a look at you?” asked Wang Yao.

“Okay,” said the elder with surprise. He didn’t know the young man he had seen a few times had medical skills.

“Yao knows medicine,” explained Wang Yao’s uncle’s wife. She had never seen Wang Yao treat anyone, but her husband mentioned it to her once.

“Sure, I’ll let you take a look at me,” said the elder with a smile. He didn’t take Wang Yao seriously.

Wang Yao knew what was wrong with the elder immediately after he had checked his pulse.

His uncle’s father-in-law had a blockage in his heart.

The medical equipment and devices were quite advanced nowadays, especially diagnostic equipment. Doctors would see clearly of what was going on in the internal organs though CT, then made a quick diagnosis. As for treatments, that was a different story.

“So you are going to do the surgery?” asked Wang Yao.

“Yes, the doctor told us that my dad’s life will be in danger if he doesn’t do the surgery,” said his uncle’s wife.

Wang Yao kept silent for a while.

He could actually cure his uncle’s father-in-law, whose condition was similar to Wang Xiangfeng’s.

“I can prescribe a formula for Grandpa to try,” said Wang Yao.

“Okay, thanks,” said his uncle’s wife.

Although she didn’t say anything, Wang Yao knew she didn’t trust him to be able to cure her dad.

Wang Yao wouldn’t be bothered to offer help if they were not his family. In addition, the formula Wang Yao was going to prescribe for his uncle’s father-in-law contained licorice roots, which were very precious.

Wang Yao didn’t stay for long in the hospital. His uncle came to the hospital with lunch shortly after Wang Yao had left. His wife mentioned Wang Yao’s visit to him.

“He said he’s going to prescribe a formula for Dad?” asked Wang Yao’s uncle.

“Yes, I remember he studied biology in college. Since when did he become a doctor?” asked his wife.

“I don’t know, but he does know medicine,” said Wang Yao’s uncle.

Zhang Xiugao knew that Wang Yao was able to treat illnesses after a few encounters. Wang Yao’s grandma had stopped coughing blood after taking the decoction brought by Wang Yao. Zhang Xiugao thought Wang Yao was better than a lot of doctors in the hospitals.

“Get Dad to try Yao’s decoction, maybe it will work,” said Zhang Xiugao.

“Okay,” said his wife.

Wang Yao told his parents of his intention to brew a decoction for Zhang Xiugao’s father-in-law.

“Mom, tell Uncle that don’t mention it to anyone if the decoction works,” said Wang Yao before he even started to brew the decoction.

“Okay,” said Zhang Xiuying.

Now Wang Yao had one more task to do. He went back to Nanshan hill after dinner and started to prepare the herbs for the decoctions.

I still have some Ziyu which is enough for one decoction.

After Wang Yao had finished preparing the herbs, he sat down to document the situations and treatments of the patients he had seen recently. These were all valuable experiences.

The weather forecast at night reported that there would be storms in the next few days.

Wang Yao walked around his herbal field that night.

He was not sure if the battle array would protect his herbs from the storm.

Ziyu had two leaves on each plant. Wang Yao picked one of the plants and took a leaf off of it. In fact, those Ziyu plants he planted recently were not fully grown yet. It was a waste to use the leaves at the moment, but he didn’t have any other options.

He started to brew the decoction the next morning.

He started a fire to boil the water, then put the herbs into the pot one by one. Although the process looked boring, it was interesting and meaningful to him.

Wang Yao then added Ziyu into the water last. One leaf of Ziyu completely changed the nature of the decoction.

Done!

A bit of purple appeared in the green liquid.

The decoction was almost the same as the one he brewed for Wang Fengxiang. The only difference was that Wang Yao added several pieces of ginger into the decoction for Zhang Xiugao’s father-in-law.

After Wang Yao had poured the decoction into a porcelain bottle, he went down the hill and then drove to Lianshan town center.
