Su Xiaoxue thought, He will come again.
This night, she had a very sweet dream that her illness was cured. She could walk down on the ground. She wandered with a gentleman in Jing. They visited every scenic spot.
In the dream, it was March and the sun was shining. She laughed out loud in her sleep.
…
In the morning, it was sunny. The forecasted snow had not come down. Not even a snowflake could be seen.



There is not much snow this year,
Zhang Xiuying said as he went down the mountain for breakfast.
Such weather was not good for crops. Wheat needed snow to pass the winter. Plus, people could easily catch a cold in such dry and cold weather.

I have to go out this morning to see a patient,
Wang Yao said.
I won’t be back to have the noon meal.


OK, be careful if you drive,
Zhang Xiuying said.
Wang Yao drove off. He bought some gifts on the way. When he arrived at Pan Jun’s uncle’s house, he tried to give the elder the gifts.

You did not have to do this,
Pan Jun’s uncle said as he try to refuse them.

I didn’t give you money for the treatment,
Pan Jun said.
I cannot let you spend your money.


Nothing, I have a predestined relationship with you.
Wang Yao smiled.
After a dispute, the elder accepted the things. Wang Yao then began to treat the old man.
As Pan Jun said earlier, the old man’s recovery was coming along very good. The most important reason was that the blocked blood in his brain had become unobstructed. The reason that his body was still unable to move was because he had already laid on the bed for many years. During that time, his muscles shrunk. After the stimulation of Wang Yao’s medication, his muscles began to recover. But, it would take time, just like seeds planted under the ground. Growth and germination could not be completed between a day and a night.



Use the medicine first,
Wang Yao said.
He brought the elderly man medicine to consolidate the corporeity. He added some ingredients for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. After taking the medicine, he would dredge the blood and acupoints to help the absorption and utilization of the drugs.
After these two stages of treatment, he stopped. The elderly man needed to take a break to let the drug spread to the whole body. In fact, the treatment was also a test for the patient, who was tired. The treatment was different from massage or taking a bath in hot spring. It was not so comfortable.

Come on, have some fruit,
the old man’s wife said.
These are the sweet potato slices we planted.
The old woman took out all the most delicious food they had.

You don’t have to be so busy, just have a seat. How is your hurt leg doing?
Wang Yao asked.

It doesn’t matter. It’s better since you pricked needles last time.
The old woman smiled.

Let me check again,
Wang Yao said.
You could sit down and have a cup of tea.

The tea was very fragrant and slightly bitter.
Wang Yao looked at the woman’s legs. There was no big problem, but he still gave a massage to stimulated the meridians of her legs with neixi to promote smooth blood circulation.

You should pay more attention to your body and have appropriate supplement,
Wang Yao said.


When people were old, their functions began to degenerate. This was a natural law. No one could violate it or avoid it. Therefore, delaying physical aging by various means was something that should be done, such as regular exercise and taking an appropriate supplement.

Hey, I started drinking milk powder recently, which my son bought,
the old woman said.

That is good,
Wang Yao said.
How do you feel?


It’s very good,
the old woman said.
The legs are hot. It’s like there is a hot water bottle on the top of my leg. It’s very comfortable.

Leg pain was a common elderly disease. It was more common in the village, because it was related to hard labor and not paying attention to one’s health in daily life.
This old woman had this problem because she worked very hard when she was young. When she was aged, leg and back pain began to appear. It would be serious in cold and wet weather. In winter, especially a cold one like the current one, she did not go out because the symptoms would become more severe when the wind was more powerful. She could not even walk if she was blown by the wind. But, she had been much better since Wang Yao’s two treatments.
After a while, Wang Yao inserted needles into the old man’s body while he was lying on the bad. This time, the position of the insertion was not the head, but the trunk and limbs. The purpose was to stimulate the muscles in his body and promote their recovery as soon as possible. Only in this way could the old man return to normal life.
A silver needle was inserted in the body of the old man. From time to time, he whirled or pulled out the needles.

How do you feel?
He also had to pay attention to the feelings of the elderly and adjusted the degree of acupuncture.
Acupuncture was not finished by just inserting them in. The dazzling acupuncture methods on TV were all deceptive.


After this treatment, the old man felt that some parts of the body were numb, some parts were hot, and some parts were slightly painful.
Wang Yao did not rush to leave after the treatment. He waited for a while to ensure that the elderly man had no problem before leaving.
The two old people wanted him to stay and eat. He had already made an excuse that he already had an appointment with a friend. However, when he left, the old man still stuffed gave him some eggs, fried peanuts, and the dried sweet potato slices. Wang Yao actually still had some in his home, but he accepted them anyway If he did not accept them, the elderly might feel awkward.

Be careful on the road.
The old couple didn’t return to their room until they saw Wang Yao’s leave the village.

What a good man,
the old couple sighed.
Wang Yao was not a benevolent person. Not everyone could be his patient, nor did he give any patients medicine for free. He felt that he and the two old people had a special relationship, so he could treat them free of charge and provide them with drugs, even if they needed licorice roots. However, to some people he was dissatisfied with, even if they knelt to the ground and gave him a sack full of cash to ask for treatment, he wouldn’t treat them.

Hey, if you treat people like this, will you lose money?
Pan Jun asked. It was his first time to see a doctor treat a patient in this way, paying a visit and giving them some gifts.

I like it,
Wang Yao said. He thought, Yes, you can be capricious as long as you like. He had this right and the ability.
Wang Yao did not drive home. Instead, he entered Lianshan County with Pan Jun. He had an appointment with Tian Yuantu to have a meal and chat.
Except for Wang Mingbao, who went to the mountain village of Jia County to contact Han to strengthen their feelings, all of the rest of his friends came. They had not got together for a long time.


They talked about everything happening everywhere and laughed, which was very lively. In this way, the whole afternoon passed by. When Wang Yao returned home, it was already after 5 p.m.
There were two guests at his home. Both of them were villagers, chatting with each other.

Well, why are you going to move out?
his father asked.

I have wanted to live in the city awhile,
the male guest said.
I chatted with Sun Yunsheng today. I heard that his family’s also engaged in real estate, and they are ready to build a community in a good place in the county. The price is very low for villagers.

After listening to the dialogue between them, Wang Yao understood their intentions.
Sun Zhengrong’s real estate company was preparing to build a number of commercial housing projects in Lianshan County. This was one of his local investments. In the face of such a consortium, the county naturally welcomed them very much. He also told Sun Yunsheng to let him tell the villagers know that if they went to Lianshan County to buy a house owned by their group, he would give them a favorable price. This was another kind of compensation for what happened that night.
Just like the couple in front of him, just at the age of 40, the man worked in Lianshan County. Their children also studied in the county. They had wanted to buy a house in the county, but the money they earned in the past few years didn’t increase much while the price of houses went up. They were also anxious. Suddenly, there was such an opportunity, so they were very happy. They knew his son was here to ask Wang Yao to see him. They wanted to ask Wang Yao to talk with them and see if the price could be cheaper.

OK, I can try,
Wang Yao said.

Thank you.
The couple left with a smile.

There are fewer and fewer people in the village now.
Zhang Xiuying sighed with emotion.
The young people are buying houses outside. No one wants to come back her to live. There are a few empty rooms in the old house. I also heard that there are several people who want to move out. Some of them go to the town, and some go to the county. If this continues, after eight or 10 years, there will only be some old people left in the village.
