“Grandpa, what’s wrong? Where’s Nuannuan?”
“Big Brother Chi Yang, you’re back? Uncle Leng!”
Zhong Nuannuan came out with a basin of water and saw Chi Yang and Leng Jinpeng’s pale faces.
Just as she was about to explain, the old master spoke.
“Why are you two so rash? You asked me this, and before I could answer, the other one asked me too. Who do you want me to answer?”
Chi Yang and Leng Jinpeng were relieved when they saw the old master’s snobbish expression. He did not look like he was in pain.
Zhong Nuannuan knew that Chi Yang cared a lot about the old master’s health, so she quickly explained.
“I just pulled out the fire cups for Grandpa and removed some of the congested blood that was stuck in his veins and arteries. However, there is still congested blood inside, and it won’t be finished in two or three tries. I’ll apply fire cups on Grandpa once a week.”
Zhong Nuannuan spoke as she placed the basin of water on the ground.
This water was specially boiled and then brought to the pool to cool for a long time. After removing the fire cups, the pores would be greatly dilated. Therefore, the requirement for water quality was especially high.
Zhong Nuannuan used a handkerchief to wipe the blood off the old master’s leg before saying to him with a smile, “Grandpa, stand up and take a walk.”
The old master hurriedly stretched his legs out to step onto the floor.
Earlier, he had felt the swelling on his legs was eased. When he walked, he no longer felt like his calves were about to explode.
Seeing this, Chi Yang could not help but reach out to support the old master, afraid that he would fall.
Yet, with his understanding of the old master’s speed, he was actually a beat slower.
The old master stood up easily before his hands could reach over.
Under Chi Yang and Leng Jinpeng’s beaming gaze, the old master walked around the room. Eventually, the old man walked straight out the door.
“Grandpa!”
Seeing that the old master was about to go downstairs, Chi Yang rushed forward to help him up.
Seeing this, the old master quickly slapped Chi Yang’s hand into submission.
“I want to leave by myself!”
“Grandpa, be careful! You might fall!”
Zhong Nuannuan walked up to Chi Yang and held his hand. “Big Brother Chi Yang, even if you don’t trust Grandpa, you trust me, right?”
Chi Yang, who was overcome with all sorts of worry, immediately shut up after hearing what Zhong Nuannuan said.
After all, his Nuannuan managed to rescue him from his severe cerebral hemorrhage. Other people had to stay in the hospital for a month, and if they were lucky, they would be paralyzed. If they were unlucky, they might even die from this sudden illness. However, he was able to recover after four hours of fluid transfusion.
Therefore, Chi Yang firmly believed in Nuannuan’s medical skills.
Since Nuannuan had said so, Chi Yang stopped approaching the old master.
Watching silently from the side, Leng Jinpeng was stuffed with another round of dog chow.
The old master did not ask for his walking stick and neither did he hold on to the railings. He went down half the fleet of stairs like a normal person and then, walked up the stairs again.
After coming up, he even gave himself a stomp in front of Leng Jinpeng. Then, his eyes lit up.
“Lass Nuan, this is really a miracle! It doesn’t hurt anymore! It’s not swollen either! My whole leg feels like it has returned to 20 years ago! I think I can even jump, what more going downstairs!”
With that, the old master prepared to leap, but Nuanuan stopped him.
“Grandpa, even though you’re feeling more relieved now, your leg hasn’t moved for a long time after all. Therefore, even though it’s easy for you to walk, you can’t run or jump yet. Otherwise, you might hurt your tendons.”
“Okay, okay, okay. Then I won’t jump anymore.” At this moment, the old master had complete faith in his granddaughter-in-law’s medical skills. Of course, he would take whatever his granddaughter-in-law said as the truth.
