Transmigration of Mian [Reluctantly] Becomes His Man [Wife]

221 – Diagnosis and Treatment

The elderly man of the Liu family was a meritorious statesman after the founding of the People’s Republic of China. He had seen all kinds of people in his nearly 70 years of life. When he heard that the doctor his grandson found was only in his twenties, he knew that his grandson had been cheated. Thinking that his grandson would gain wisdom by suffering a cut, he didn’t voice it out. He coldly watched his grandson receive a call from the other party to postpone the consultation time, and then coldly watched his grandson receive a call from the other party to ask about the meeting time.

Before his grandson looked over at him, he had withdrawn his eyes and continued to read the newspaper.

“Grandpa.” Liu Yaoming walked over and sat down at the elderly man’s side. “I know you don’t believe Qin Mian actually has such good medical skills, but it’s true that Lin Feng’s illness has been mostly cured. You only have to think of him as a friend of mine. It’ll only take ten minutes to see him.”

Since this was his grandson’s good intention, Elder Liu did not want to let him down. He patted his grandson’s head and said, “Fine, fine, fine. But he should understand what can be said and what can’t be said.”

“You can be assured, I’ll make it clear to him.” Liu Yaoming stood up, “Grandpa, I’ll go out and pick him up.” There were guards outside the residence; ordinary people couldn’t come in.

“Go.”

Qin Mian followed Liu Yaoming into the enclosed courtyard residence and went straight to the third section. When he entered, he saw an old man in his sixties sitting on a mahogany bench. He had a square face and a pair of bright and expressive eyes, keenly sizing Qin Mian up with an imposing manner of a superior pouring out at him.

Qin Mian raised his eyebrows, is this displaying one’s severity? He nodded slightly to the elderly man and turned to Liu Yaoming, “Is this the patient?”

His aura of being in a high position for a long time was not what ordinary people could bear, but this young man was not affected at all, like a double-edged sword stuck in the ground motionlessly braving the strong wind, refraining from showing its ability. Elder Liu was surprised. Only then did he face Qin Mian squarely.

Liu Yaoming was a little displeased. But his grandfather was the first to use his imposing manner to suppress Qin Mian, so he was not able to say anything. He said to Elder Liu, “Grandpa, this is Doctor Qin I told you about; Doctor Qin, this is my Grandpa.”

These people were overly suspicious [of him]. Qin Mian inwardly shook his head. Now, he had regretted that he promised Lin Feng. He didn’t have to take this troublesome way to integrate into modern life. However, he had promised the other party, and neither would he come to an uneventful end.

Mister Liu had read countless people, so he was keenly aware of Qin Mian’s cold-shouldering. Although he was not enthusiastic at first, he now wondered if Qin Mian really had the ability. He gestured with a hand, “Doctor Qin, please sit down.”

“Thank you very much.”

After Qin Mian sat down, Elder Liu asked Liu Yaoming to pour tea.

“I wonder where Mister Qin works?” Elder Liu had a smile on his face and a kind look.

Qin Mian didn’t want to practice Tai Chi¹ with him and said directly, “Pardon me, Elder Liu. I have something else to do later. Let’s get down to business first. I’ll check your pulse first, and then write down the medical case and prescription. I can treat you myself, or you can ask someone else.”

Elder Liu had the mind to test his ability. He reached out his hand and said, “Please.”

Qin Mian put his fingers on the pulse about ten seconds before letting go. He looked at Elder Liu, “From your pulse, you have had three minor strokes, and because the treatment is timely, the condition is under control.”

Elder Liu and Liu Yaoming looked at each other in surprise. Elder Liu’s identity was not ordinary, so his medical records were confidential. It was impossible for ordinary people to look at it. In other words, Qin Mian’s diagnosis was really seen from the pulse. Before this, they both looked down on him.

Liu Yaoming secretly congratulated himself for not being rude to the young doctor.

Qin Mian seemed to be unaware of their change of attitudes, “The interval between the first stroke and the second stroke is about four years, and the interval between the second stroke and the third stroke is about one year. Although all of them are under control, it can be seen from these that your condition has actually become more and more serious. One more stimulus will very likely lead to a severe stroke.”

Elder Liu and Liu Yaoming looked grim. Severe stroke could be treated, but it was very difficult to recover to the condition before the onset of the disease; the person would be equal to a waste.

“In your opinion, can my Grandpa’s condition be cured once and for all?” Liu Yaoming asked anxiously.

“Fortunately, Elder Liu always pays attention to physical exercise; his physical function is good.” Qin Mian pondered for a moment, “the elder’s pulse is powerfully stable with strong vitality. If nothing happens, he’ll have no problem living for another 14~15 years. Give him acupuncture several times, with a reasonable diet and proper exercise, his life can extend for another five years or so.”

Elder Liu appeared a little relaxed. He was 64 this year. In 20 years, he would be 84. 84 was already a long life.

Qin Mian asked, “Do you have a pen and paper?”

“Yes.” Liu Yaoming hurriedly went to the study to get pen and paper, and handed them to Qin Mian with both hands. He was a few years younger than Qin Mian; there was no look of disgrace in his act of respect toward Qin Mian.

Instead of writing immediately, Qin Mian said to Elder Liu, “Do you want me to do acupuncture for you or find another doctor? If it’s another doctor, I’ll write down the acupuncture method, but then I have one condition.”

“What is the condition? Please say it,” asked Elder Liu.

Qin Mian said, “To tell you the truth, my prescription is handed down from my ancestors. It’s the rule of my ancestors to not hand it down to others. If the elder asks for another doctor, I hope the other party can keep it secret.”

Liu Yaoming could not help but say, “Mister Qin, you should know how many people are suffering from stroke in today’s society. I can pay a high price for your prescription.”

Qin Mian shook his head lightly, “Sorry, it’s not for sale.” It was enough to give a couple of people treatment. If the prescription was really published, it would change the medical process to a great extent. He remembered Lei Tie once said that cultivators should not use their own abilities to interfere in the affairs of the secular world, otherwise, the punishment of the Heavenly Law’s Tribulation would be very heavy in the future. Back then when he and Lei Tie took part in the war between Great Xia and Tuluo, it had perhaps been “recorded” by the Heavenly Law. He should be more cautious in the future.

Liu Yaoming said, “The price can be properly discussed.”

Qin Mian said with a smile, “I’m not short of money. Young Master Liu and Lin Feng are good friends. You should be able to understand that if a person has too much money, money is just a number to him.”

Liu Yaoming didn’t know how rich Qin Mian was, but he totally agreed with him. Let’s take Lin Feng as an example; he had a hobby, which was buying houses. Whether domestic or abroad, as long as he saw the house he liked, he couldn’t help but buy it. The cheapest ones cost 800,000, while the expensive ones cost more than 20 million. He didn’t even blink when he bought them.

However, Liu Yaoming was still a little unwilling [to give up] and secretly signaled Elder Liu with his eyes.

Elder Liu understood his meaning. If their Liu family could donate this prescription, they would surely make the Liu family’s position more stable. However, he couldn’t do that because he suddenly remembered that there were still some “otherworldly experts” in the country about 50 years ago, when only their top brass had access to some classified information. He wondered whether the young doctor was a disciple of the otherworldly expert. If so, such people could only be roped in while maintaining gentlemen’s relationship, or even could be ignored, but only couldn’t offend.

He waved hand [in dismissal] at his grandson, “Doctor Qin, it’s you who checked my pulse, so you know my physical condition better than others. I think it’s better for me to have you treat me.”

“No problem.” Qin Mian nodded, “Also, I have one condition. I don’t plan to see other patients. I hope you don’t publicize my medical skills to the public.”

Elder Liu glanced at Liu Yaoming. “No problem.”

Liu Yaoming awkwardly said, “Uhm… Many people have already known about you treating Lin Feng, and many people have seen us at the party that day.”

“I understand that.” Qin Mian said, “In a word, don’t talk about it outside henceforth.”

Liu Yaoming agreed.

Qin Mian wrote down a prescription and handed it to him, “Follow the prescription. The best time to drink the medicine is immediately after I gave the elder acupuncture.”

“Okay, I’ll go right now.”

After more than two hours, Qin Mian came out of Liu Residence. He would give the elder man acupuncture once every three days. After ten times of acupuncture, the elder man could just take another two months’ medicine and that would suffice.

Liu Yaoming personally sent him out of the door.

Passing by the bakery, Qin Mian stopped and bought four small cakes.

When he got home, as soon as he opened the door, he saw one big and two small ones sitting in a row on the sofa in the living room, looking up at him. Everyone had a luggage bag beside them.

“Daddy!” Qin Ruilin and Lei Ruilin ran over at full speed and took the cakes in his hand.

Qin Mian sat down beside Lei Tie and handed him a box of cakes. Looking at the three bags on the ground, he said with an amused face, “What are you guys doing with these?”

“Daddy, didn’t you say to take us on a tour?” Lei Ruilin, lying on the back of the sofa, reminded him. Yesterday afternoon, he finished his filming parts. Now, he was free.

“Yes.” Qin Mian took a bite of the cake, opened the zipper of Lei Tie’s luggage bag, flipped through the clothes inside, touched a box with his finger, and saw the words on it clearly. His face became hot. He turned to look at Lei Tie. “One box is enough. You’ve packed four boxes. How much… Hmph.”

Lei Tie seriously explained, “Not that I wanted to buy. It’s an online purchase, buy three and get one free. Wife, don’t you often say that we should be diligent and frugal in running our household?”

Qin Mian stared at his innocent appearance without saying a word.

Lei Tie’s face didn’t change its color. He reached out and wiped the cream from the corner of his wife’s mouth and licked it. He turned his head and continued to watch the TV.

Qin Mian rubbed his face, amazed at the man.

“Set out after finishing the cake.”
