Chapter 67 2. Autumn Maple and Qiulan

My father's gout was not recovering for a long time, and craniotomy was impossible. I was so anxious that I ran all over the pharmacies in Dongzhou, trying to find a special medicine.Coincidentally, when I went to the traditional Chinese medicine counter of Fangyuan Pharmacy to inquire if there was such a medicine, the lady who sold the medicine looked at me in a daze. "Why are you looking at me like that?" I asked boldly. "Brother, why do I think you look familiar? Is your surname Lei?" She asked in surprise... "Yeah, how do you know?" I wondered even more.

"Your name is Lei Mo, right? Your family lived in the Liu family's shack for two years when you left the 'May 7th'?" "Yes." "Brother, you don't know me anymore? When you were a child, you let my dad see a doctor." "Are you Qiulan?" I suddenly remembered and asked in surprise. "Yes, I am Qiulan. We played house together when we were young!" Qiulan said excitedly. "How are your parents?" I also asked happily. "My parents are dead." "What about your brother Qiu Feng?" "I opened my own clinic. My brother inherited my father's business and is now a well-known Chinese medicine practitioner."

"Your family's medical skills are inherited from your ancestors, and your father is a man of great ability." "My brother has learned all my father's skills, and has new innovations. How are uncle and auntie?" "My mother is in good health, but my father is not in good health. He not only has gout, but also has a meningioma." "My brother is excellent at treating gout. I'll call him and you can go to his place some time. I guarantee that uncle will be cured with the medicine." I was very happy when I heard that, and said to Qiulan, "I'll treat you to dinner another day."

I wrote down Qiulan's phone number, left my own, and left. I left Fangyuan Pharmacy and drove straight to Qiufeng's clinic according to the address Qiulan provided.The clinic is located in an elegant courtyard on Ren'ai Road, Qingfu District. There are several big poplar trees with dead branches in the yard, and sparrows are chirping on the branches. "How can I find Qiufeng?" I walked into the clinic and asked a nurse in a white coat. "Which room has more patients, he will be in that room." The nurse said enthusiastically. Sure enough, there were more than a dozen patients waiting for their pulse in a consulting room. A thin but energetic doctor who was several years older than me was giving the patient his pulse.Qiu Feng played with me when I was a child, and even fought with me, so I recognized him immediately. "Brother Qiufeng." I shouted happily.

Qiu Feng looked at me very surprised. "Raimer?! Why are you here? Wait for me for a while." After Qiu Feng took the pulse of the patient at hand and prescribed the medicine, he said to the assistant: "You take care of it first, I have a friend here." He said and walked out of the outpatient room. "Come on, sit in my office, good guy, I haven't seen you for so many years!" Qiu Feng said while shaking hands with me. "I haven't seen each other since I left the Liu's shack. I didn't expect my elder brother to have a successful career and already has his own clinic." I said with admiration.

I followed Qiu Feng into the office.There is a boss desk in the office.The two-person sofa and coffee table are simple and clean, and the walls are covered with banners and plaques such as "Wonderful Hand Rejuvenation" and "Hanging Pot to Help the World", all given by patients. "Remo, please sit down!" Qiu Feng greeted me warmly, made tea for me, and asked me how I found him.He said nostalgicly: "Lei Mo, do you still remember that our two families were the only 'five or seven' households in the Liu family shack, and the locals bullied the students, so your brother and I joined hands to fight the local children."

"I remember, my house was connected to the blacksmith's shop at that time, and during the day we would lead horses to shoe them." I also said with longing. "Although your house is connected to a blacksmith's shop, you lived in a gege in 'Manchuria'." Qiu Feng said mysteriously. "I've never heard of that." "Before liberation, Gege married a regiment leader of the Kuomintang, and later that regiment leader fled to Taiwan; after liberation, she went to the countryside to undergo reform, and later died in the Liu family shack. The house where your family lives is still there. "

"Really? My family has been away for more than 20 years." "Leimo, don't go to the Three Treasures Palace if you have nothing to do." "Brother, Qiulan said, you are the best at treating gout. My father has had gout for a long time, and he has taken a lot of medicine but it doesn't work. You should find a way." "Did you bring the test sheet?" "Here it is." I handed him the test sheet. "No problem, it will be relieved in three days after taking my medicine, and it will be ready in a week." Qiu Feng said after reading the test sheet.

I'm glad to hear that. "Brother, how did you get gout?" "Gout is a foreign disease. Before the reform and opening up, this disease was not found in our country. Eating seafood and drinking beer is the easiest way to get this disease." "My father was a good beer drinker when he was young." "Uncle, aunt, are you okay?" "Fortunately, my dad has a meningioma in his head. Once the gout heals, he will have to undergo surgery." "Where are you going to do it?" "Provincial Cancer Hospital." "Are there any acquaintances?"

"Have." "Leimo, don't worry, old people will have sick children when they get old, treat them correctly. My father had a cerebral hemorrhage, and he was like an old child before. He can't remember the things in front of him at all, and the things in the past I remember clearly, lying down without sleeping, sitting up and dozing off, crying without tears, laughing and shedding tears." I laughed when I heard that, and thought to myself, Qiu Feng really summed it up like this.After Qiu Feng accompanied me to grab the medicine, I left.When parting, Qiu Feng said: "Lei Mo, Qiulan and I will go to see uncle and aunt some other day."

Leaving Qiufeng's clinic, I drove to deliver medicine to my father, and I couldn't help but think of the time when Li Guofan and Zhang Guochang went to an old Chinese doctor for a massage.The home of the old Chinese doctor is near the clinic opened by Qiu Feng.At that time, Li Guofan had to find an old Chinese doctor for massage every night, and it is said that Chen Jianxiang introduced him. Old Chinese medicine practitioners have a set of fitness theories. When a person lies flat on the bed with his legs stretched out, if they are not normal, he is sick. Massage should be done to make his legs even, so that he is considered healthy. There are quite a few people who go to the old Chinese doctor for massage, but the old Chinese doctor almost declined other patients in order to give Li Guofan and Zhang Guochang a massage.Because of these two Gods of Wealth, both fame and fortune can be gained. At first, Zhang Guochang didn't know that Li Guofan asked an old Chinese doctor for a massage, and Zhang Guochang had to compare with Li Guofan in everything.The design style of the business card printed by the secretary for Zhang Guochang was different from that of Li Guofan. Zhang Guochang got angry with me and asked me to notify the secretary for a reprint.It was also when Lin Guihua went to the Municipal People's Hospital to see a doctor and talked about Li Guofan's massage. The speaker had no intention of saying it, but the listener had a heart. Meng Lihua thought to herself, the old Chinese doctor Li Guofan found must be a master. If he enjoys it, our family Guochang must enjoy it. .So Meng Lihua obtained the location of the old Chinese doctor from Lin Guihua, and the couple went to the old Chinese doctor for massage every evening.Every time the old Chinese doctor gives Zhang Guochang a massage, he always praises Mayor Li, saying that every time he gives Mayor Li a massage, he will be picked up by a car. .Zhang Guochang closed his eyes and rested his mind, pretending he didn't hear. Finally one day the old Chinese doctor asked for a price. "Mayor Zhang, please do one thing." The old Chinese doctor said embarrassingly. "Please tell me, old man, as long as it can be done, I will help." Zhang Guochang said lying on the massage table. "My son works in the Dongzhou Acrobatic Troupe and is a masseur. He wants to buy a second-hand car, preferably a new one, and a Santana 2000 will do," said the old Chinese doctor. "How much can your son pay?" Zhang Guochang asked with a smile. "Seventy to eighty thousand yuan." "Leimo, I will leave this matter to you." Zhang Guochang said in a broad-minded manner. I was very upset, and felt that the old Chinese doctor was talking too loudly.But I can't help it, who made Zhang Guochang speak?I found Yang Rubin and explained the situation, and he readily agreed. One evening, when I accompanied Zhang Guochang to another massage, I told the old Chinese doctor the news.The old Chinese doctor asked me to contact his son.I had no choice but to call the old Chinese doctor's son.Unexpectedly, the son of the old Chinese doctor had a bigger appetite. He said, "Sorry, I can only give 50,000 yuan at most." I thought to myself, why are people so greedy?I don't agree. After sending Zhang Guochang home, I talked with Yang Rubin on the phone, and Yang Rubin became angry when he heard it. "A Santana 2000 for 50,000 yuan. How much does he have and how much do I want? Isn't this a robbery? Besides, I'll sell it to you for 50,000 yuan, okay?" Yang Rubin said angrily. "Ru Bin, forget it, I'll go back to Mayor Zhang tomorrow." I said angrily. Unexpectedly, the next evening, Zhang Guochang refused to go to the massage. "Leimo, when I went home yesterday, your sister-in-law told me that the old Chinese doctor was a lung cancer patient. When I heard that, I was so disgusted. I knew I couldn't go at all." Zhang Guochang said disgustedly. "Boss, do you still want to help the old Chinese doctor's son buy a car?" I asked jokingly. "Help me, don't care about it, don't care about it." I was relieved when I heard it. Regarding fitness and health preservation, Zhang Guochang has changed many tricks. "Lei Mo, do you know why the old secretary of the Provincial Party Committee is still in good health at the age of ninety?" Zhang Guochang asked mysteriously once. "I don't know." I said. "I have been drinking the water soaked in Cordyceps sinensis for more than 40 years." Zhang Guochang said with a surprised expression. "Really?" I was also surprised when I heard that. "Leimo, from tomorrow onwards, don't make me tea, but make me some Cordyceps sinensis." Zhang Guochang said seriously. Zhang Guochang insisted on drinking it for half a year, but he didn't think much of it. He held the water soaked in Cordyceps sinensis during the executive meeting, fearing that it would affect badly, so he said, "Forget it, let's drink tea." So he changed it again. Afterwards, I asked the secretary of the old secretary: "I heard that the old secretary's health is good because he uses Cordyceps to make water every day. Is there such a thing?"
