The old man went to the tap nearby to wash his hands. Instead of rushing to open the door, he pushed his wife up, walked slowly to the door, opened the door, and let the two of them in.
"grandmother!"
Wu Xiaoyu threw herself into the old lady's arms, feeling very intimate.
The old lady also touched her head and said with a smile: "Girl, are you going to have trouble with your dad again?"
"No, I just miss you. Grandma, let me introduce you. This is my friend, Du Qingchen! His medical skills are very good. I brought him to see you and treat you by the way."
"I'm not sick. Oh, Xiao Du is so handsome. Not bad. She has good eyesight. Please come in quickly."
The old lady greeted Du Qingchen warmly.
Du Qingchen called grandma and went in carrying a bunch of gift boxes.
"Come on, come on. What gifts are you buying? I haven't finished the ones I brought last time. Besides, we like to eat green food now. How can these nutrients compare to cabbage and radishes?"
The old lady was smiling.
Next, the old lady chatted with Du Qingchen, while Wu Xiaoyu squeezed her legs while the old man went to the field to pull out a radish and a cabbage to prepare for lunch.
Du Qingchen couldn't stand it anymore and rushed to the kitchen to cook.
At noon, although it was a few simple vegetarian dishes, Du Qingchen came up with new tricks. The two old people ate them full of praise, and their impression of him became much better.
After dinner, everyone sat in the yard to bask in the sun.
The old lady asked about Du Qingchen's family situation and learned that he was an orphan, and she felt sorry for him from the bottom of her heart.
From beginning to end, the old man didn't speak much, but he was extremely considerate and caring about his wife. He would help her straighten the quilt covering her knees, and change her tea.
Seeing this scene, Du Qingchen was deeply moved.
This is the dream of many couples when they were young.
Holding the hand of the child, and carrying the child with him until old age, this is how a husband and wife come to accompany each other when they are young.
After chatting for a while, Du Qingchen brought the topic to the old lady's lap.
"Grandma, what's wrong with your legs?"
The old man frowned slightly. It was obvious that he didn't want to mention this matter for fear that his wife would be unhappy.
The old lady was very open-minded and said: "About twenty years ago, I had a car accident, and then my lower body was paralyzed. It was nothing, I was used to it. Your grandfather took good care of me and massaged me every day.
However, I will never have the chance to stand up in this life."
She said it very easily, but Du Qingchen could hear the disappointment in her tone.
"Grandma, can you let me see your legs?"
Du Qingchen took the initiative to say.
The old lady was stunned, hesitated, and took off the quilt covering her legs. A pair of slender legs were exposed in front of Du Qingchen.
The muscles have been severely atrophied and necrotic. After all, twenty years have passed, but in Du Qingchen's opinion, they are already well maintained, thanks to the old man massaging her every day.
"Brother Du, do you think it can be cured?"
Wu Xiaoyu asked expectantly.
"It is almost impossible to cure muscle atrophy and necrosis."
Du Qingchen said subconsciously.
The old lady was calm. This conclusion was exactly the same as that given by the doctor back then.
She was used to it, so she smiled and comforted her somewhat sad and lost granddaughter: "It's okay, girl, it's great that you have such a heart. Grandma is already over eighty years old, and she still has a few years to live."
Oh my god, this is already good."
"Grandma, don't get me wrong. What I mean is that it cannot be cured under normal circumstances, but I can cure it."
Du Qingchen said.
ah?
The old lady was startled.
The old man's eyes shone with hope. He had not spoken a word, but he said excitedly: "Xiao Du, are you kidding me?"
"Xiao Du must be joking."
The old lady smiled.
"Brother Du, can it really be cured?"
Wu Xiaoyu asked excitedly.
Du Qingchen nodded: "I can indeed cure it."
"Ah? Aren't you kidding?" The old lady finally became a little moved.
"Grandma, don't worry. Brother Du's medical skills are really good. If he says he can cure it, he will definitely be able to cure it."
Wu Xiaoyu has great trust in Du Qingchen.
Du Qingchen nodded: "It can be cured now."
After saying that, Du Qingchen took out the silver needle that he had prepared long ago and said to the old lady: "Grandma, I will treat you now. I believe you will be able to stand up soon. I hope to see you walking with grandpa by then."
, go to the market together, and travel together."
This kind of life has been the wish of the two old people for many years. Only when they have truly lost it can they learn to cherish it.
A picture began to appear in Du Qingchen's mind, with blue sky and blue clouds, a pair of old people walking together under the sunset, watching the ebb and flow of the tide together, looking at the mountains in the distance, the water in the distance, the people in the distance...
He was a little moved again.
Although the old lady was looking forward to it, she didn't particularly believe it. After twenty years, she had become desperate, and the little hope she had in the early years had long been wiped out.
But when Du Qingchen wanted to treat him, she still cooperated.
Taking away the quilt, Du Qingchen began to apply the acupuncture. It was difficult to apply the acupuncture through his cotton pants. Maybe another doctor would not be able to do this anyway.
Soon, the old lady's legs were covered with silver needles.
Du Qingchen squatted on the ground and began to apply the acupuncture with all his concentration. Through the silver needle, he transferred his true energy into it, began to activate the opponent's muscles, and expanded the blood vessels and meridians...
More than half an hour later, Du Qingchen was already sweating profusely and was withdrawing his needles. Du Qingchen fell to the ground and asked the old lady: "Grandma, do you feel anything now?"
The old lady closed her eyes. After a while, she opened them. She shook her head with some disappointment, then smiled and comforted: "It's okay, I'm used to it. Look how tired you are. Okay, we won't treat you anymore. Come on soon."
Get up and sit."
"You wait."
Du Qingchen's hands began to massage the old lady again.
Ten minutes later, the old lady suddenly let out an ouch: "Be gentle, it hurts!"
"Take it easy - ah, what did you say? Do you have feelings? Old woman, are you making me happy?"
The old man originally wanted to teach Du Qingchen a lesson, but he suddenly became extremely excited.
"Hey, I really feel it. My legs feel so hot. They hurt just now."
The old lady also became excited.
Du Qingchen had already stopped and was pulled up by Wu Xiaoyu to sit down. He was sweating profusely and looked very tired.
"Grandma, try to stand up now, Xiaoyu, support grandma."
Du Qingchen said.
Wu Xiaoyu and the old man helped the old lady up. The latter carefully walked a few steps forward. After walking only ten meters, she was already exhausted and sweating profusely.
"I have just been cured now. Firstly, I need exercise, secondly, I need nutrition, and thirdly, I need massage. Let's do this. Xiaoyu, you ask your dad to find an old Chinese medicine doctor to come and massage the old lady every day. I don't think you can get one.
In a month, her legs will recover. Although there is still a gap between them and normal people, there will be absolutely no problem walking. In another year and a half, when she has enough nutrition, she will be no different from ordinary people."
Du Qingchen finished speaking: "I'm a little tired, can I take a rest here?"
"Okay, okay, Xiaoyu, help your boyfriend go to the inner room to rest."
The old lady was incoherent and almost burst into tears. She was so happy that she finally stood up again after twenty years.
