Sometimes, when one hopes for the best and waits, the results are worse than expected. If a person did bad things all day and then wanted Bodhisattva to bless them to be safe and happy, it would be an idiotic dream. Of course, sometimes Bodhisattva just needed time to sleep.

Sun Dacheng only had one son, so he would not give up so easily. The family next went to the provincial capital.

...

In the evening, Wang Mingbao and Wang Yao had several small dishes in the pub in the village, as well as a small pot of wine. The two people talked until it was very late.

The next morning, the weather was gloomy. The low temperature lasted for a few days. It was warm and springy on the mountain, but it was piercingly cold outside the mountain.

People coming into the clinic to see the doctor kept coughing. Serious coughing with sputum was the common symptom. The medicine Wang Yao gave them was basically the same: honeysuckle, radix isatidis, bitter almond, licorice, and ephedra. It worked to clear heat, remove sputum, and stop coughing.

There were also two adults who came with their children, who were only about 3 or 4 years old. The children were very sick. The suffered from fever, cough, and loss of appetite.

In addition to giving the children some medicinal mild remedies, Wang Yao also gave them a massage to help to relieve the pain.

The effect of the massage was surprisingly good. The children with fevers sweated a lot after the massage. After the fever was gone, their spirits were much better. One of the children was even hungry. Thankfully, his family had brought food with them.

“You need to wait a while before leaving,” Wang Yao said.

The children’s parents rushed to dry the children’s clothes because they had sweated a lot. It was easy to catch a cold again when going out in such cold days. After sending out the parents, Wang Yao was a little more relaxed.

He took out the Treatise on Miscellaneous Diseases to read, which he had read no less than five times. Once he had leisure time, he liked to read it again. It was no longer just for acquiring knowledge. After reading about the diseases, he wondered if there were other suitable solutions to treat them.

At 11:30, when Wang Yao was preparing to lock the door, he saw a car parking next to the clinic. A couple rushed over with a child in a small bag.

“Hello, Dr. Wang, can you check our child?” The parents were anxious.

“Come in and we’ll talk about it.” Wang Yao hurriedly opened the door and invited them into the clinic.

The child stared at Wang Yao with a pair of very bright little eyes. He was curious. It was as if something new was discovered.

She coughed after a little while. There was a whistling sound in the throat. Her face was red because of the continuous cough.

“Look, doctor, my girl coughs so badly, and her throat is always whispering,” the mother said.

“I heard it.” Wang Yao shook his hand. There was a warm breath working to keep the cold outside the little baby. “Hold her and sit down.”

The little baby was very calm. Although she coughed, she did not cry. Some children were naturally charming and attractive, such as this little baby in front of him.

After checking, Wang Yao found that there was nothing wrong with her. He gently massaged her and transfused a small amount of neixi into her. After a few minutes of massage, the whirring in the throat of the little baby began to weaken. After 10 minutes, the sound was almost inaudible.

The little baby was very comfortable. She actually fell asleep in her mother’s arms.

“It’s amazing!” The couple couldn’t believe it.

They had come from the town’s health clinic, where the doctors advised them to infuse their children. They suggested to go to a pediatrician in the township hospitals. The parents were afraid of the delay of treatment. They were also worried that the child was too small to infuse.

They were thankful they had come here. The effect was surprisingly good.

“Thank you, Dr. Wang.” The parents were overjoyed. They kept expressing their gratitude when they left.

“Go home and take the medicine regularly. Make sure to give your child more water,” Wang Yao said.

“OK, we’ll remember that.” The parents then left.

Wang Yao went home to have meal.

“Were there a lot of people this the morning?” Zhang Xiuying asked.

When she had gone out to throw away the garbage in the morning she had seen some cars parked outside the son’s medical center. She knew they were looking for her son.

“Well, there were a lot of people, but all of them had colds,” Wang Yao replied.

“There have been a lot of colds recently,” she said.

After eating, Wang Yao returned to the clinic. In the afternoon, there was another wave of patients. There were a lot of people coming today.

Near the evening, Wang Ru came back with Du Mingyang.

“Uncle, aunt.” Du Mingyang greeted Wang Yao’s parents.

“It’s Mingyang, come in,” Zhang Xiuying said. “How many times have I told you. When you come here, you don’t have to bring so many gifts.”

“No matter, it’s all snacks and tonic for you and uncle,” Du Mingyang said with a smile. “Xiao Yao?”

“He’s at the clinic,” Zhang Xiuying said. “There are a lot of people coming today. I just went out to see it. There are many cars parked outside.”

“Xiaoyao’s business is good?” Du Mingyang smiled.

Wang Yao was in the clinic checking on a little baby for treatment. The child suffered from fever, runny nose, loss of appetite, and vomiting. “Why did you come so late?”

The child’s condition was similar to the 6-month-old child who was admitted at noon but only slightly more severe. It was already dark when the parents came. It was very cold out.

“I was busy with my job. He has had a cold a few days. When I came back from work today and found that he had a cough, I quickly came over to see you,” the man said.

Wang Yao just listened. The child’s body clearly showed signs of just getting an injection. “Hold him down and sit down.”

Wang Yao gave the child a massage in the normal way but gently. In this way, the boy sweated quickly, and his face became red.

So effective! He was really worthy of the reputation! The couple looked at each other and were very surprised. They heard from other people that the doctor was very skillful. Their child has recently been infused for three days, but the effect was not very good. They were really worried, so they rushed over to the clinic.

When they first saw Wang Yao giving their son a massage, they were still suspicious. Massage could cure some diseases, especially for special diseases such as lumbar disc herniation, but they had never heard that massage could treat colds and coughs. Wang Yao overturned their traditional thoughts.

The original massage could reach such a high level that it could fever, cough, and bronchitis.

The general massage method was naturally not so effective. It could only play a role in auxiliary treatment and health care. However, Wang Yao was naturally different. It turned out that his massage technique was the ancient pharmacist’s medical skill, which was really extraordinary. His neixi was extremely refined, unique, and effective. As a result, the combination of both was incomparable and marvelous.

“I will give you some more medicine, which he should take regularly when you return home,” Wang Yao said.

“Oh, thank you, doctor,” the man said.

When the husband and wife left, it was already 6:30. Although the winter solstice had passed and the days were becoming longer, it was still completely dark.

“Xiao Yao, do you finish your business?” A man’s voice came from outside.

Wang Yao went to see who it was and found Du Mingyang.

“Hey, why are you here?” Wang Yao asked.

“No patients?” Du Mingyang asked.

“They are all gone.” Wang Yao said.

“Then, go home to have meal. The food is ready. We are waiting for you,” Du Mingyang said.

“You go back first. I will clean up here and be back soon,” Wang Yao said.

“Can I help you?” Du Mingyang kindly helped. He was embarrassed for a while because he didn’t know what to do. Wang Yao quickly cleared up the clinic. The two of them went home together.

At home, Zhang Xiuying already had prepared a good dinner. In fact, dinner should be as simple and light as possible. A dinner that was too rich could increase the burden on the body. It was only OK occasionally. But, if everything in life could be done according to science and rules, it would be a bit rigid and boring, like the monks in the temple who insisted on the rules and regulations.
