He left the office with a curious look on his face and called out to Li Qingmei who had not walked a few meters while pushing the wheelchair.
Li Qingmei obviously didn't expect to meet Ye Su in the municipal hospital. When she turned around and saw Ye Su in a white coat, she was obviously stunned and said in shock: "Ye Su? Why are you here? You...
What does this outfit mean?"
"I'm the doctor here. Of course I have to wear a white coat." Ye Su smiled, and then noticed that as Li Qingmei turned around, the wheelchair she was pushing also turned around.
Sitting in the wheelchair was a boy who was only about fourteen or fifteen years old.
The boy's eyes were quite clear, and the one sitting in the wheelchair looked at him curiously. Judging from the outline of his face, the boy looked a bit like Li Qingmei.
But what really caught Ye Su's attention was that the boy's limbs were obviously sluggish. Compared with the limbs of a normal fourteen- to fifteen-year-old child, they were slender and obviously in a state of constant shrinkage.
"Doctor? You clearly told me that you are a teacher at Ocean University."
The expression on Li Qingmei's face was even more shocked.
"Yes, teaching is my main job, but the salary of a university teacher is really not high, so I work as a visiting professor in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department of this municipal hospital to earn some extra money."
Ye Su nodded and explained.
It's just that the content of this explanation made Li Qingmei's head a little confused for a while.
Teacher and doctor... how can these two professions be related? Even if you are looking for a side job... you have to find one that sounds more reliable, right?
Li Qingmei looked at Ye Su blankly, feeling that she could not understand Ye Su more and more.
"Is this your brother?"
Li Qingmei was in a daze when Ye Su pointed at the boy who was staring at him curiously and asked.
"Well, it's my younger brother. I brought him here for a massage on his limbs. There is a very good masseur in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department of the municipal hospital. I bring my brother here for a massage once a week."
Li Qingmei said simply, and at the same time reached out and rubbed the head of the boy in the wheelchair. It was obvious that Li Qingmei loved this younger brother very much.
"Is the muscle atrophy in his limbs...innate?" Ye Su carefully observed the boy's body and asked with a frown.
"Yes, my mother had a serious illness when she was pregnant with him. If she didn't take medicine, she might not be able to survive it. Although my mother was unwilling to take medicine no matter what, she couldn't bear my father's request. As a result, my brother was born.
His body was greatly affected by this. His limbs were born much smaller than ordinary people, and they looked as if they were not fully developed. If the muscles are not massaged on time, his limbs will continue to degenerate."
Li Qingmei sighed and said helplessly.
"But it seems that the effect is not very good. His limbs are still shrinking, but the rate of shrinkage has been slowed down to a certain extent."
Ye Su said.
"Yes, but there is nothing we can do about it. I have asked some other medical experts in related fields around the world. They said that this kind of congenital muscle atrophy is formed in the mother's body, so the current medical level cannot
There is no way to slow down the rate of atrophy, which is the limit of what can be done. According to current estimates, around the age of twenty, my brother will have to have all his limbs removed to prevent the atrophic muscles from affecting the physiological functions of the trunk.
."
Li Qingmei had a bitter expression on her face and looked quite helpless when she said that she wanted to amputate her brother's limbs.
"What's your name?" Ye Su squatted in front of Li Qingmei's brother and asked with a smile.
"My name is Li Xiaoyun, big brother, are you my brother-in-law?" The boy in the wheelchair suddenly asked with his big bright eyes flashing.
This question was not only unexpected by Li Qingmei, but also caught Ye Su off guard.
"Ahem, your sister and I are friends, not your brother-in-law. Why do you suddenly ask like this?" Ye Su coughed twice and asked awkwardly.
"Because after my sister suddenly saw you, the number of times her eyelids blinked tripled. The strength of the hand muscles pushing my wheelchair also increased significantly. The sound of my heartbeat suddenly became louder. I raised my head deliberately.
After taking a look, I found that the focus of her pupils had also changed. This series of changes proved that my sister has an inexplicable affection for you. This is the first time I have seen my sister react like this to a man.
So I think you might be my brother-in-law."
Li Xiaoyun said calmly.
Now it was Ye Su's turn to open his mouth. He really didn't expect that the boy in the wheelchair...had such keen observation?
"Xiaoyun! Don't talk nonsense!" Li Qingmei couldn't help scolding, then looked at Ye Su with a red face, and said apologetically: "Although my brother has no limbs, he has been extremely smart since he was a child, and he has lost all his limbs.
The loss of his limbs also makes his five senses seem to be more sensitive than ordinary people, but don't listen to his nonsense... Well... I will push my brother into the massage room first, and we will talk later."
Li Qingmei seemed a little flustered, and the order of her words was a little incoherent. As she spoke, she hurriedly pushed Li Xiaoyun towards a room next to her.
The Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine is an absolutely small department in the municipal hospital, so it has the fewest clinics and offices among all departments. In this case, it can have its own massage room. The old man who is said to have excellent massage techniques
Traditional Chinese medicine does have a relatively transcendent status in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department of this municipal hospital.
When Ye Su came to report yesterday, this old Chinese medicine practitioner specializing in massage and acupuncture was treating patients, so he only said hello to Ye Su and Fu Ning, but did not say a few words.
So today, when I saw Ye Su reappearing, the old Chinese doctor who was giving acupuncture treatment to a patient in the massage room just nodded towards Ye Su and didn't say anything else.
Li Qingmei pushed Li Xiaoyun directly to the waiting room, while Ye Su stood beside the old Chinese medicine doctor and nodded secretly while watching the old Chinese medicine doctor's acupuncture technique.
Although from the point of view of acupuncture point control, the old Chinese medicine practitioners can only be regarded as quite satisfactory, but what is rare is that there are no mistakes in the entire acupuncture process.
Many times, being able to avoid making mistakes is a very powerful skill.
However, from this old Chinese medicine practitioner, Ye Su could roughly see to what extent Chinese medicine had declined in this era. For someone with the level of an old Chinese medicine practitioner during the Song Dynasty, he would have just started at most.
Standards for being able to practice medicine.
After watching for a while, Ye Su turned around and went to the waiting room. Li Xiaoyun and Li Qingmei seemed to be talking about something. As Ye Su came in, Li Xiaoyun immediately stopped talking, looked at Ye Su with a narrow smile, and then
He looked at Li Qingmei.
"Qingmei, come here, I have something to ask you." Ye Su smiled and waved.
Li Qingmei was slightly startled, then leaned her brother's wheelchair against the wall, and then walked towards Ye Su. When she reached Ye Su's side, she asked strangely: "What's wrong?"
Ye Su took Li Qingmei out of the massage room again, and then asked: "Your brother also has a serious heart problem. What's going on?"
Li Qingmei's face suddenly showed a look of shock, and she lost her voice: "You...how did you know?"
