Chapter 152 152. Peony and Licorice Soup

Mr. Mu stood aside and watched Shen Ruoxi's consultation process. He was able to diagnose the disease so quickly and give a prescription, which showed that he had a solid foundation.

This girl is only fourteen or fifteen years old, but she has such a foundation, which makes people sigh.

Shen Ruoxi gave the prescription to Shen Suhong, "Go and grab the medicine, give him one dose, and he will take the rest and cook it himself."

Shen Suhong's expression was serious. She was always serious when working, "Yeah."

Shen Ruoxi looked at Mr. Mu, "Mr., are you going to see a doctor or buy medicine?"

Mr. Mu thought for a while and sat on the medical chair. "I always feel uncomfortable, but I can't tell where I am feeling unwell. Please help me take a look."

Shen Ruoxi observed Mr. Mu for a while. His face was rosy and his skin was smooth. He didn't look like a sick person, but sometimes it was just a symptom. What happened next would depend on hearing and hearing.

Shen Ruoxi asked Mr. Mu to stretch out his arm so she could feel her pulse. She concentrated on the diagnosis for a moment and then asked, "Does Mr. Mu have leg cramps?"

Mr. Mu was surprised, "Did you feel the pulse?"

Shen Ruoxi explained, "Taking the pulse can only give you a general direction, and you have to match the symptoms to finally determine the disease."

Mr. Mu nodded and saw a slight change in Shen Ruoxi's eyes, "I do suffer from leg cramps. I bought a lot of medicine, but I have never been able to completely cure the disease."

He didn't tell anyone about this matter. He was Doctor Mu and he couldn't afford to embarrass that person.

Shen Ruoxi asked again, "Does the old gentleman usually eat a combination of meat and vegetables?"

"Yes, in addition to meat and vegetables, I can eat two bowls of white rice." Mr. Mu secretly praised. Indeed, a person's diet can also cause various physical discomforts. It is rare to notice this.

Shen Ruoxi took her fingers back and said, "The cramps in your legs are not caused by lack of nutrition, but caused by disharmony between the liver and spleen, blood deficiency and loss of body fluids, and lack of nourishment of the muscles and veins."

Mr. Mu asked humbly, "Why do you say this?"

Shen Ruoxi said, "The spleen is the foundation of acquired nature. It governs transportation, energy and blood. The spleen also controls muscles. The nutrition of muscles depends on the spleen's transportation and transformation of water and grain essence. If the spleen's transportation and transformation ability is weakened, the water and grain essence cannot reach the limbs. It’s easy to get muscle soreness after working.”

"For example: after lifting heavy objects, your arms will be sore when you wake up the next day after a good sleep. If you do physical work or walk for too long, your calf muscles will be sore."

"The liver stores blood, and the liver governs the fascia of the whole body. If the liver's qi and blood are abundant and the fascia is nourished, the muscles will be strong, flexible, and less prone to cramps. However, when the liver stores insufficient blood, the muscles will lose their nourishment. , the legs and feet will become stiff and cramped.”

Mr. Mu nodded repeatedly. This girl knew what she was doing and why. She was really powerful, not superficial.

Shen Ruoxi continued, "The liver and spleen cooperate with each other to maintain the production and circulation of blood."

"The transportation and transformation of the spleen depends on the liver's dispersion, and the blood stored in the liver also depends on the transformation and regeneration of the spleen."

"If the spleen is healthy and the source of blood is sufficient, then the blood function of the blood lineage will be strong, the liver will be stored, and the liver blood will be sufficient. Only then can the blood be regulated according to the needs of the human body's physiological activities."

“If the liver blood is sufficient, the catharsis will be normal and the qi movement will be smooth, so that the qi and blood can flow unobstructed, which is conducive to the transportation and transformation of the spleen.”

"The spleen generates blood. If a person's spleen is not good, the body's qi and blood will be insufficiently produced, and all parts of the body will not be nourished, including the liver, of course. The liver has lost the nourishment of spleen blood, has insufficient blood storage, and cannot nourish the whole body. If the muscles and veins are affected, cramping will occur.”

"The spleen controls the muscles of the body, and the liver governs the tendons. Imbalance between the liver and spleen can lead to blood deficiency and body fluid damage, which can cause cramps and muscle soreness. Muscles and tendons are prone to problems."

Mr. Mu felt as if the mist that confused him had lifted. He really knew that there was no end to learning, and he couldn't judge people by their cover. He fully recognized Shen Ruoxi's abilities.

Mr. Mu said politely, "Girl, please give me some medicine."

Shen Ruoxi thought for a while and wrote down the prescription for peony and licorice soup, "Old sir, take three doses of medicine and your leg cramps will be completely cured."

White peony is sour and cold, nourishes blood and restrains yin, softens the liver and relieves pain. Licorice is sweet and warm, strengthens the spleen and replenishes qi, relieves pain and relieves pain. The two medicines are combined together to remove the sourness and relieve the pain due to the sweetness. The combination of sourness and sweetness can be used to nourish yin. Blood can achieve sourness and sweetness, transform yin, nourish blood and soften the liver, relieve pain and relieve pain.

Mr. Mu looked at the prescription and asked deliberately, "Girl, I have severe leg cramps. These are just two medicines. Can they be cured?"

Shen Ruoxi said confidently, "If it can't be cured, I don't want your money."

Mr. Mu smiled heartily, "You are quite confident, girl."

Shen Ruoxi handed the prescription to Shen Suhong, "I won't prescribe this prescription to you without 90% certainty. Old gentleman, please feel free to use it."

"Thank you, girl." Mr. Mu then said to Shen Suhong, "Give me the medicine and I'll take it back and fry it."

Shen Suhong looked at Shen Ruoxi, and Shen Ruoxi nodded.

"Okay, please wait." Shen Suhong took the prescription to the counter. Wang Yi quickly grabbed the medicine. Shen Suhong took the medicine and handed it to Mr. Mu, "Two coins."

Mr. Mu paid the money readily and said, "Thank you very much. If it is useful, I will come again next time."

Shen Ruoxi smiled and said, "It's better not to come to the medical center."

Mr. Mu was startled, "What the girl said is that it is better to come to the medical center less often."

…

Mu Mansion.

Mu Liankun was about to go out. As soon as he came out, he met Mr. Mu who had just returned, "Grandpa, you look very happy?"

There was a smile on Mr. Mu's face, "Don't you have grandpa's leg cramps all the time? Maybe he won't suffer from these pains in the future."

Mu Liankun quickly asked, "Grandpa, has he met a good doctor in this field?"

Mr. Mu was full of praise, "Yes, the other party has a profound foundation in medicine. Even grandpa may not be as good as her. After taking my grandpa's pulse, she explained the cause of leg cramps in detail. The more I listened, the more I felt that this was really the case. She How do you know this at such a young age?"

Mr. Mu was talking and thinking as he walked towards the house, leaving his grandson behind.

Mu Liankun was worried and followed back, "Grandpa, who are you talking about?"

Mr. Mu turned around and said, "It's Shen Ruoxi from Gushengtang Medical Center. She sells medicine to Zhou Shou. I know about her from Zhou Shou. You must be modest in the future. Her medical skills are better than yours."

Mu Liankun frowned, feeling very unconvinced. He had worked hard to study medicine since he was a child, but his grandfather rarely praised him. How could a little girl now deserve such praise from her grandfather?

"Grandpa, are you exaggerating? She only showed you one kind of disease. Maybe it was a coincidence?"

Mr. Mu glanced at his grandson. He was a high-spirited grandson. He was not surprised at all when he heard the other person say this. "If you think grandpa is overgeneralizing, you can go and see for yourself."

Mu Liankun said with a hint of anger, "Just go, grandpa, I will definitely go and see it."
