On the wedding day, I was broken off, so I remarried his uncle

Seeing this, Song Xile pretended to reach into his sleeve and took out the needle bag containing the silver needles.

She picked up a silver needle with skillful movements and inserted it without blinking.

After a round of operations, Patriarch Chen's rapidly heaving chest calmed down, and even his breathing became much steadier!

Everyone in the Chen family breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Patriarch Chen's condition had stabilized.

After patriarch Chen's symptoms eased, Song Xile turned around and said to the family standing in the house:

"You guys should get out now. With so many people crowded around the bed, the air in the room will become turbid, which is not good for patients with breathing problems!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yunshan immediately asked his wife to take everyone out.

A group of people walked out in a rush, and the originally cramped room suddenly became much more spacious. Cao and Chen Yunshan were left in the room.

After everyone left, Cao couldn't help but ask, "Old man, are you feeling better?"

Patriarch Chen then opened his eyes, nodded, and then said to Song Xile in a hoarse voice: "Thank you for your help!"

He felt a little sad, as he didn't want to trouble others.

Alas, my body is no longer useful!

"It's okay, just close your eyes and rest, don't talk too much, let me take your pulse!"

Chen Yunshan tactfully brought a bamboo stool and placed it at the head of the bed so that Song Xile could feel his father's pulse.

After Song Xile took the silver needle, he sat down on the bamboo stool and concentrated on taking the pulse for a while, then looked at Patriarch Chen's complexion and tongue coating.

During the period, he asked about Patriarch Chen's daily life and diet.

Worried that her husband would start coughing again after talking too much, Cao said hurriedly, "Your uncle has not had a good appetite recently. He can only eat some porridge every day. I see that he is getting thinner and thinner!"

"I can't even lie down to sleep. If I do, I'll start coughing. I can only lean back like this and close my eyes to rest for an hour or two!"

Combined with Cao's narration, Song Xile became more certain of her previous judgment. She sorted out her thoughts and said:

"My uncle's cough was caused by an external cold. He didn't receive timely symptomatic treatment at the time, and it took too long for it to become a chronic disease."

When Cao heard this, she regretted it deeply. She should have taken her husband to see a doctor at that time.

Chen Yunshan asked in confusion: "My father has occasionally caught a cold in the past, but it has never been this severe. Why is this time different from the past?"

Song Xile continued to explain: "The factors involved are quite complicated. To put it simply, my uncle is also an elderly man with a weaker constitution. If he coughs for a long time, his lung function will be impaired."

"Secondly, I am not able to get enough food and I cannot sleep. My body is in a state of deficit for a long time. It is difficult for my body to recover in this state of deficit for a long time!"

"And from what I can tell, the inflammation in my uncle's lungs is still progressing!"

There are many types of infections, including bacterial and viral. Although they all have characteristics of fever and cough, their pathogenic mechanisms are completely different!

Although I was able to get over the occasional cold this time, it doesn’t mean I will be able to get over it smoothly next time.

Then Song Xile just used the most understandable words to explain, and the three people in the room all understood it!

When Chen Yunshan heard that his father's condition was still worsening, he said anxiously: "Sister-in-law, please save my father!"

Mrs. Cao also looked at Song Xile with expectation, hoping that she could find a way to cure her husband.

Song Xile sensed the tension of the two people, and softened her tone and said, "Aunt, don't panic. My uncle's illness has been delayed for too long, and he has not been able to get enough food, which is why his health is getting worse!"

"Wait for me to prescribe some prescriptions to dispel wind and cold, clear the lungs and relieve coughs. Take the medicine first to relieve the symptom of coughing. In addition, you should eat a bowl of sugar-water eggs every day to provide the energy your body needs!"

Chen Yunshan nodded repeatedly, "As long as it is good for my father's illness, you can ask me, and we will do it!"

Song Xile thought of something and reminded him, "Just one thing, you must insist on taking the medicine you got back, and don't stop taking it without permission just because you think you are feeling better!"

"The inflammation that could have been suppressed will come back in a big way. Not only will the person suffer, but the medicine may even become ineffective! It may also cost a lot more to treat!"

Song Xile gave this instruction because she was really worried that Patriarch Chen would be like her mother, who would feel he was better after taking a few doses of medicine and then refuse to take any more!

They made this choice simply because they didn't want to be a burden to their family.

Song Xile looked at Clan Leader Chen, who was leaning against the bed and hesitant to speak, and comforted him, "Uncle, don't worry. The medicines I prescribed are all the most common herbs. They don't cost much."

"First, take this prescription to relieve your coughing symptoms. Later, I will prescribe some prescriptions to harmonize your internal organs, warm your lungs, and completely eradicate this stubborn disease!"

Now that things have come to this, it would be ignorant of the consequences if I didn't listen to your advice.

Patriarch Chen nodded slowly, "I'm sorry to trouble you!"

"It's nothing serious. You should have a good rest. I'll come back to see you again in a few days!"

After saying this, he said goodbye to Cao and was about to leave.

Cao hurriedly stood up to see him off, but was persuaded to stop by Song Xile.

"Mom, you stay here with Dad. I'll take your sister-in-law to school!" After saying that, he led Song Xile out of the room.

Seeing his wife coming out, Chen Yunyou, who had been waiting in the main hall, immediately came forward and asked, "How is it? Is your uncle feeling better?"

Song Xile nodded, "The cough has stopped temporarily. Brother Chen, please come with us later. I will write a prescription and you can take it to the clinic to get the medicine!"

"Don't bother, I have all the pens and ink at home!" After saying that, he asked his son to go to the room to get paper and ink.

I forgot that since Patriarch Chen is the patriarch, he must be literate, so it is normal for him to have pens and ink at home.

Soon the paper and ink were ready.

Song Xile spread out the slightly yellowed paper, picked up the sparse brush, ground the ink, and skillfully wrote down the name of the medicine.

The yellowed paper must have been placed for some years, and the words written on it are easily blurred.

Seeing that the ink was seeping through the paper, Song Xile became more careful when writing.

When the ink was almost dry, Song Xile handed the prescription to Chen Yunshan.

"This is Ma Huang Tang, which is made up of Ma Huang, almonds, and licorice. Ma Huang clears the lungs and relieves asthma, almonds relieve cough, and licorice is used to balance the ingredients. If you take this prescription to a pharmacy, anyone can understand it!"

Chen Yunshan took the prescription and quickly told his younger brother Chen Yunlin to go to the pharmacy to get the medicine.

"The Ren Medical Clinic in the city should be closed today. Brother Yunlin should go directly to Doctor Zheng's house. You should be able to buy medicine at his house!" Chen Yunyou reminded.

Chen Yunshan slapped his head and said, "Thank you for reminding me. I actually forgot about this!"

"You're too polite, bro. That's all right. Xile and I will go back first!"

Chen Yunshan hurriedly stopped the two of them, "The consultation fee has not been paid yet, how can I let my brother and sister-in-law work for nothing."
