Chapter 391: It’s Nothing.
A manager of Luo Fang?!
Xiao Luo heard his company being mentioned and couldn’t help but glance at the young man from the corner of his eye. He had no impression of him though. With so many store managers in Luo Fang, he couldn’t possibly remember everyone’s faces. But the man also didn’t know him! It was either he was newly promoted or he was a fake.
Tan Ning Fu was against this matter, she frowned at her mother and said, “Can you not say or do anything until Grandma wakes up?”
Seeing that she was beginning to get really angry, the middle-aged woman smacked her lips and quieted down.
The people at the door turned their attention to Xiao Luo, who was taking the old woman’s pulse. About ten minutes later, Xiao Luo pulled his hand back and stood up.
Tan Ning Fu hurried up to meet him and asked with concern, “How is it, Mr. Xiao?”
“There is nothing serious about her body, but she has accumulated pent-up Qi all year round, which has not been well channeled. It affects her own Qi and blood, causing her blood pressure to rise and an intracranial pressure to surge. Therefore, she passed out.”
Xiao Luo told the truth about the situation that he saw through taking her pulse, “Is your grandmother angry before she fell into a coma?”
Tan Ning Fu subconsciously looked at her mother. Indeed, her mother always scolded her grandmother. Even when she was eating, she was not allowed to sit at the table. Every time, she would carry her food and move to a low stool to sit alone by the bathroom door, eating it bite by bite. The elderly in her eighties also had to mop the floor, wash clothes, cook and wash dishes just like a hired servant.
She held her tears and turned her back to ask, “Mr. Xiao, do you have any way to cure my grandmother?”
“I can give her acupuncture, but it would only be a temporary treatment. If she wants to recover completely, you must be kind to the old woman and not let her suffer from stress. Comfort and happiness are the most effective medicines in the world.” Xiao Luo replied.
“Mr. Xiao, please give my mother the treatment. I will keep your words in mind and keep her in a happy mood, please!”
The middle-aged man pleaded. Although his wife always taunted and scolded his mother, she would often say that it was because of the old woman’s fault. But blood was thicker than water, and such an excuse from his wife could never change the fact that his mother was lying in bed right now.
Xiao Luo nodded and took out his acupuncture equipment to treat the old woman.
The so-called acupuncture referred to the needling of the old woman’s air specific acupuncture points and guiding the pent-up Qi to flow along specific meridians and led it out of her body through her index finger in the form of blood dripping.
Looking at the long needles sticking into the old woman’s body, Tan Ning Fu and the others were nervous.
When the old woman’s index finger trickled out blood, everyone felt relieved and at the same time surprised.
“Bring a basin.” Xiao Luo said to Tan Ning Fu.
Tan Ning Fu immediately ran out and returned with a washbasin in her hand, “Here you are, Mr. Xiao.”
Xiao Luo put the washbasin on the ground, and the blood flowing from the old woman’s index finger trickled down into the washbasin, but the old woman was not awake yet.
“Mr. Xiao, when will ‘grandmother’ wake up?” At this time, the young man asked with concern.
“Soon.”
Xiao Luo lightly replied, and then walked towards the head of the bed. He stretched out his hand and touched the old woman’s skull, and then a slender needle sharply punctured it.
The people stiffened as they saw this. Wouldn’t it damage the brain?
However, these doubts were soon dispelled. The intracranial pressure of the old woman was finally relieved, and her physical state was gradually recovering. First, her fingers moved, followed by her eyelids opening slowly. Although she looked tired, she woke up.
“Grandma!”
Tan Ning Fu excitedly walked up, sat on the edge of the bed, and tightly held the old woman’s hand. Her eyes were wet with tears.
The old woman opened her mouth and called out her name hoarsely and huskily, “Xiao … Fu …”
“It will take some time to channel the pent-up Qi.”
Xiao Luo took out his phone and looked at the time. “Remind me to withdraw the needle at 11:30.”
“Okay.” Tan Ning Fu nodded to affirm his instruction, then got up and bowed deeply to Xiao Luo, “Thank you!”
“You’re welcome.”
Xiao Luo breathed a sigh of relief. He had just fulfilled his promise, so he felt a lot easier.
……
……
The middle-aged man made a pot of tea, after some introduction, Xiao Luo knew that his name was Tan Jianbai, while the young man’s name was Li Yueze.
“Which hospital does Brother Xiao work in?”
Li Yueze asked, Xiao Luo’s appearance made him feel a sense of crisis, especially when Xiao Luo cured Tan Ning Fu’s grandmother. Concerning this, he lost because Tan Ning Fu was very grateful to Xiao Luo.
“I don’t work in the hospital.” Xiao Luo replied.
“You don’t work in the hospital?”
Li Yueze wondered, “Do you own a clinic?”
Xiao Luo shook his head and said lightly, “I am not employed in the medical profession.”
“Then you don’t have a medical certificate?” Li Yueze asked.
Xiao Luo naturally wouldn’t lie and nodded.
Li Yueze was startled and immediately said with profound meaning, “If you practice medicine without a license, and you are found out by the Health Bureau, you would be investigated by them. I am afraid you will be found guilty in court.”
Xiao Luo smiled, he didn’t want to take part in this conversation. He actually thought this was a very boring topic. He saved people, and still was considered in the wrong?
“Xiao Xiao, you must pay attention to it in the future, otherwise you will get into trouble.” Li Yueze called Xiao Luo “Xiao Xiao” and put himself in a higher position.
“Ahem …”
Tan Jianbai coughed softly, “Xiao Li, don’t talk about this topic.” He looked at Xiao Luo, “Mr. Xiao, you saved my mother. Please accept my thanks, take the money.”
Saying so, he took out a sheepskin envelope from his arms. Bulging inside were red bills. It was at least five thousand yuan. He handed it to Xiao Luo.
Did he like money?
Of course, the answer was yes. Who didn’t like money in this world? But this time, it was purely because he had promised Tan Ning Fu, hence he did what he promised. In addition, when he saved the old woman, his system points increased by 30 points, which was already enough in return.
Just as he was about to decline, Li Yueze picked up the envelope and stuffed it back into Tan Jianbai’s arms.
He waved loudly, “Uncle, I’ll pay.” Then he asked Xiao Luo, “Xiao Xiao, open your phone and I’ll transfer 20,000 to you.”
Xiao Luo knew that this person was showing off. If he really was a manager of Luo Fang, his monthly salary should be between thirty to forty thousand, and plus the performance award every quarter. So twenty thousand was really not big for him, but Xiao Luo didn’t want to take advantage of this.
He shook his head, “No, it’s no big deal.”
“No, no, no, no, Mr. Xiao, this is absolutely necessary. Xiao Li, you can sit down. I’ll handle this.” Tan Jianbai said seriously.
“Uncle, 20,000 is nothing to me. I gave 5,000 to a poor beggar once before, so… Oh, sorry, Xiao Xiao, I didn’t mean it like that, it’s just an example, don’t take it to heart.” Li Yueze carelessly said.
