Chapter 67: Treatment
Su Chong and Su Hua still did not understand what had happened, but they had a good impression of Old Wu and they trusted him, so they walked to his side.
Old Wu took their pulses.
Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao watched nervously.
After a while, Old Wu let go of his hand and said, “It’s difficult to cure, but it can be done. They can be treated by using some medicinal herbs to nourish them. After they are cured, they won’t recover immediately. Their minds will only mature like a normal person, and they will be a few years later than their peers.”
Su Chong and Su Hua’s illnesses were difficult to treat, and some medicinal herbs needed were very precious.!!
However, this was not a big deal. He would treat it as a gift for his disciple.
Su Sanlang couldn’t believe his ears.
Madam Zhao cried tears of joy. She covered her mouth in disbelief and said, “Really? Can they really be cured?”
As long as they could recover, it wouldn’t matter if they grew up slowly. Chong and Hua would grow up eventually. They would understand the ways of the world. What normal people would know, so would they.
Old Wu nodded. “From tomorrow afternoon onwards, they will be treated with acupuncture with Zhou Heng every day. I’ll give you some medicine later. Take one set of medicine every two days. We’ll see how it goes. When the first stage is over, we’ll start the second stage. If nothing goes wrong, they’ll be cured in a year.”
“Thank you, thank you.”
Su Sanlang’s eyes were red. He looked at Old Wu, not knowing how to express his gratitude.
Old Wu waved his hand and said to Su Chong and Su Hua, “Chong, Hua, come. You can carry your Brother Heng over to sleep now.”
He had done what he needed to do. It was time to go back to bed.
Su Chong and Su Hua carried the wooden wheelchair and Zhou Heng respectively.
Old Wu joined him.
After they left, Su Xiaolu went forward and wiped Madam Zhao’s tears. “Mother, don’t cry. Big Brother and Second Brother will be fine.”
Madam Zhao hugged Su Xiaolu and kissed her forehead before caressing her hair lovingly.
Su Sanlang looked at Su Xiaoling and asked, “Sanmei, tell me, did something happen this afternoon?”
Su Xiaoling told him about what happened in the afternoon in all seriousness.
Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao were extremely surprised.
“Simei, you’re so talented.”
Madam Zhao was very shocked. She didn’t even dare to think about it.
Looking at her obedient, sweet, and cute daughter in her arms, Madam Zhao exclaimed, “Simei, how are you so smart?”
Su Xiaolu smiled sweetly and said, “Father, Mother, it’s actually not difficult at all. I learned how to take a pulse when I entered the city last year. I know that my brothers are sick in the head, but I didn’t know what to do. Today, when I saw Master giving Big Brother Zhou Heng acupuncture, I realized that I have a solution. Don’t worry, it’s very simple.”
Su Xiaolu made it sound as simple as drinking water and having a meal.
When Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao heard this, they were terrified. That was acupuncture. How could it be this simple?
However, looking at how relaxed their daughter was, they seemed to understand why Old Wu was in a hurry to take her in as a disciple.
When it came to things that others might not be able to master for decades, their daughter learned them immediately. This was a gift from the Gods.
Su Sanlang stroked Su Xiaolu’s hair and said gently, “Simei, I’ll leave your eldest and second brothers in your hands. No matter if they can be cured or not, I’ll thank you.”
Madam Zhao hugged Su Xiaolu tightly and said gently, “Simei, I must have accumulated so much good fortune in my previous life to be able to give birth to you in this life.”
“I love Father and Mother. I love Third Sister, Big Brother, and Second Brother.”
Su Xiaolu leaned into Madam Zhao’s arms. She was so warm that she was unwilling to leave. She loved everyone in the family, and they treated her so well. She had a lifetime of memories, and she had the Space. It was only right that she let her family live a good life.
Su Chong and Su Hua returned and the family went to bed after washing up.
Now, Su Chong and Su Hua slept by themselves. Even Su Xiaoling and Su Xiaolu did not sleep with Su Sanlang and his wife. The two sisters slept together.
At night, Su Xiaolu soon fell asleep quickly. She entered the space to see the herbs she had planted. They looked good.
After packing up, he left the space to sleep.
In a daze, she felt a kiss on her cheek.
Beside her ears, she heard her sister’s gentle whisper. “Xiaolu, I love you so much too. Thank you for what you’ve done for our family.”
With that, Su Xiaoling leaned against Su Xiaolu and fell asleep.
Su Xiaolu was also sleepy and fell asleep with a smile on her face.
The next morning, Su Sanlang took Su Chong and Su Hua to work.
After Madam Zhao cooked, Su Sanlang and the others returned.
After eating, Old Wu went to pick herbs.
Naturally, Su Sanlang’s family went to work.
Su Xiaolu and Su Xiaoling accompanied Zhou Heng at home.
At noon, Madam Zhao returned to cook.
Old Wu also came back on time. After eating, he called for Su Chong and Su Hua.
Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao also followed them.
Old Wu said to Su Xiaolu, “Little girl, you do the acupuncture today. I’ll watch.”
As he spoke, Old Wu got Zhou Heng to roll up his pants.
Zhou Heng was a little nervous. Su Xiaolu smiled sweetly at him and said, “Big Brother Zhou Heng, don’t be afraid. It won’t hurt.”
Su Xiaolu’s smile was very harmless. She held the needle in her small hand and inserted it into the acupoint accurately.
One by one, Su Xiaolu inserted the needles quickly. In less than ten minutes, hundreds of needles were inserted.
Old Wu was convinced. “Little girl, you’re much better than me.”
Su Xiaolu smiled. “Master, I knew I could do it.”
“Yes, indeed. Then I’ll leave your two brothers to you.”
Old Wu was completely relieved. Sometimes, talent could offset all hard work, and Su Xiaolu happened to have that talent.
Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao were dumbfounded.
Nothing like the shock of seeing it with your own eyes.
Su Xiaolu asked Su Chong and Su Hua to sit down. She kissed their cheeks and smiled. “Big Brother, Second Brother, don’t be afraid. It doesn’t hurt at all.”
Su Chong and Su Hua were not afraid. They both smiled.
“If Xiaolu gives me a kiss, I won’t be scared.”
Su Chong said seriously. Ever since Su Xiaolu could walk, she had often kissed their cheeks. Over time, they gradually understood that this was their sister’s way of encouraging them.
This was useful to them.
They were mentally incompetent and naturally did not understand the difference between men and women. Hence, since Su Xiaolu was also still young, Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao did not say anything about it.
Su Xiaolu took the silver needles and inserted them without hesitation.
After a while, Su Chong and Su Hua’s heads were pierced with dozens of silver needles.
Madam Zhao’s heart ached and she shed tears.
Su Hua looked at Madam Zhao and said, “Mother, don’t cry. It doesn’t hurt at all. It’s just a little hot and it feels good.”
