Chapter 580: Mishap
Zhong Nuannuan knew that this would not intimidate them, so she said immediately, “He’s suffering from shortness of breath now and can’t speak properly. If you don’t let me insert these needles, his muscles will be cramped for a long time. Besides, he’s aged, so it’s very easy for him to suffer major side effects. It’s even possible for him to suffer from hemiplegia.”
When the guards heard that, they were frightened.
One of them asked, “Then, do you really know acupuncture?”
“Mmm.”
Seeing Zhong Nuannuan nod her head, everyone believed her. After all, she was the future granddaughter-in-law of the old marshal. The old marshal meant to dote on her endlessly—she was the future matriarch of the Chi family who would carry on the family line for the old marshal and the commander.
After Zhong Nuannuan inserted three needles into the old master’s body, the old master was surprised to find that he could breathe smoothly again. His body, which had been in so much pain just now, gradually stopped hurting. Moreover, he could move again.
It was a miracle.
The old master could not help but applaud his grandson! He actually found this old man such a beautiful granddaughter-in-law who could perform acupuncture for him!
The worry and depression that he had felt earlier had long disappeared the moment he saw Zhong Nuannuan with his own eyes.
“Sir, don’t move. Just maintain this posture for three minutes.”
“Okay, okay, okay!” The old man quickly cooperated and told the guards, “Don’t make a big fuss. You can’t believe how nimble this girl’s hands are. I couldn’t even breathe earlier, but after she inserted these needles into me, I instantly felt better.”
“Yes.” The two guards stood in a single file and looked at Zhong Nuannuan with admiration.
The future commander’s wife was indeed extraordinary.
Those onlookers who had been out for a walk that night, that had not dispersed from the scene had their eyes lit up when they saw what happened. They quickly came over to watch.
“Sir, do you really feel fine?”
“I’m fine, I’m fine! Just now, I suddenly sprained my waist, and then I felt a shortness of breath. I couldn’t breathe. But the moment the needles came in, I immediately recovered. I recovered so quickly I don’t feel any symptoms anymore. She must be a miracle doctor!”
The old master was used to being alone at home. Once he left the house, he was definitely fated to be a chatterbox. Soon enough, he joined the crowd in the ruckus.
“Grandpa, you can move a little now. If there’s no problem, we can remove the needles in two minutes.”
“Okay.”
The old master was extremely pleased with the way she addressed him. Following Zhong Nuannuan’s instructions, he straightened his back and did two chest-stretching exercises.
Seeing the silver needles around his waist, the guards were extremely nervous, afraid that the old marshal would sprain his waist severely.
After twisting a few times, the old master’s eyes lit up. “It doesn’t hurt anymore, girl! It really doesn’t hurt anymore! It’s amazing! It’s amazing!”
At this moment, the old master was looking at his granddaughter-in-law—he almost lit three incense sticks on her forehead.
He felt that the Chi family had picked up a treasure!
“As long as you’re not hurting anymore.” Then, Zhong Nuannuan removed the three needles from the old man’s waist and put them back into her bracelet.
“Sir, have you really recovered?”
“Yes, yes! I’m good!” The old man was overjoyed.
“Miss, since you’re so good at acupuncture, why don’t you take a look at this for me? My knee hurts especially when it rains.”
“Miss, let me take a look too. My back hurts.”
“Miss...”
In an instant, Zhong Nuannuan was tightly surrounded by the crowd. Facing these neighbors, she was caught in a dilemma—she could neither reject nor accept their requests.
