Jiang Shaoyi cald his emotions and, with Lu Jiu's help, slowly adapted to the rhythm of speaking.
Jiang Xiaoquan felt a sense of relief as he watched his father babble like a baby learning to talk, naturally feeling quite happy.
He couldn't wait to call his mom.
For seven or eight years, Jiang Xiaoquan had been dreaming that his father could recover.
He didn't expect this wish to co true today.
"Not bad, the tongue aperture is opening smoothly, but given the long duration of the illness, he can't speak fluently yet. It will probably take a few months of adjustnt. Next, I'll perform acupuncture on the back ridians to see if the Du ridian can recover!" Lu Jiu said.
Jiang Xiaoquan knew that Lu Jiu intended to treat his father's paralysis, so under Lu Jiu's guidance, he carried his father to a small bed nearby and helped him lie down.
Lu Jiu continued to perform acupuncture.
Having previously helped Wang Li, Lu Jiu had so experience with restoring the Du ridian.
However, whether this experience would apply to Jiang Shaoyi depended on his personal physical condition.
"This scar..."
Seeing the scar on Jiang Shaoyi's lower back, Lu Jiu couldn't help but feel fortunate for Jiang Shaoyi.
Luckily, the injury wasn't in the central waist, or it would have completely blocked the Du ridian, making recovery doubly difficult for Lu Jiu.
Currently, the injury was on the left side of the lower back, only an inch from the Du ridian. Even though it still affected the Du ridian, it increased the possibility of Jiang Shaoyi's recovery.
Lu Jiu began to insert needles into the Bladder ridian.
The mountain burning fire technique was then applied.
The Du ridian is the sea of yang ridians, where all six yang ridians of the body converge. Therefore, when the Du ridian is in trouble, all six yang ridians will also have issues.
Originally, Wang Li's waist was problematic, and after surgery destroyed the Du ridian, besides the waist issues, he constantly felt discomfort here and there.
It's like a highway, with the national road dug up, causing jams on the main roads, and traffic congestion occurs elsewhere.
With such a jam, accidents are bound to happen.
For humans, such accidents are equivalent to stagnated energy and blood. While temporary unblockage isn't an issue, prolonged accumulation and a blocked main road will naturally lead to more disease accumulation.
Feeling warmth coming from his lower back, Jiang Shaoyi imdiately felt comfortable.
Whether sitting in a wheelchair or lying in bed, his lower back always felt cold.
Occasionally, a draft on his back would send a chilling discomfort throughout his body.
Since becoming paralyzed, he always had to have a cotton pad on his back.
Despite this, he still found autumn and winter hard to bear.
Now, with warmth filling his lower back, Jiang Shaoyi felt a calmness wash over him, and a wave of drowsiness made him fall asleep directly.
"Snore~~Snore~~"
Hearing this rhythmic snoring, Jiang Xiaoquan gently called, "Dad... Dad..."
Lu Jiu smiled and said, "Let him sleep. For so many years, your dad probably hasn't had a good night's sleep, right?"
Jiang Xiaoquan replied, "Yeah, at first he'd wake up in pain in the middle of the night, and later, when the waist pain improved, he often couldn't sleep past three or five in the morning. My mom says he sleeps very lightly and wakes up at the slightest noise. If I called him like this before, he would have already opened his eyes."
Lu Jiu said, "The reason your dad often wakes up at three or five is due to his liver not being in great condition. Part of this cos from his injuries, but the main reason is his emotions. I ntioned earlier, your dad keeps his anger bottled up, which definitely harms his liver. Also, overthinking long-term damages the spleen. If he never finds a way to release these accumulated thoughts, they will harm his mind, worsening insomnia and further harming his health."
"While my treatnt is effective, real recovery relies on him. His mindset is crucial, and I hope you can guide him."
Jiang Xiaoquan replied bitterly, "We've tried advising him many tis, telling him not to be so pessimistic and to see things more openly. But his temperant is just like that, and changing him is very difficult."
Lu Jiu said, "Do your best. Any small improvent is better than none."
Lu Jiu also understood that once soone's personality is ford, it's almost impossible to change significantly.
Especially those who are extrely stubborn; even facing death, their character won't change.
This might validate the saying, character determines destiny!
But advice should still be given. If the old man sees improvent and believes in recovery, his mindset might change, and his character might improve."
With the round of acupuncture over, Lu Jiu could only temporarily improve Jiang Shaoyi's sleep. As for the recovery of the Du ridian, no signs of progress were evident yet.
There's no helping it, as the Kidney Essence was severely depleted. Lu Jiu didn't dare to use acupuncture thoroughly, as it also consus energy and blood.
For now, the solution is to try and restore Jiang Shaoyi's heart function and supplent the Spleen and Stomach.
With this in mind, Lu Jiu prepared seven doses of dicine.
Once Jiang Shaoyi awakened, the father and son left the clinic.
...
Outside the consultation room, a man in his thirties walked over.
"Brother Yuan."
Wei Lele saw the newcor and imdiately greeted him, "Producer Yan."
"Lele's here too," Yan Sansi smiled, then looked at Zhou Tongyuan, "Brother Yuan, why the secrecy in bringing to this new hospital?"
Zhou Tongyuan chuckled, "Did you see the na of this hospital when you ca in?"
Yan Sansi replied, "Lu Jiu TCM Hospital, right? You didn't bring here just to tell who the dean is, did you?"
"Don't tease , Brother Yuan. I deal with hospitals every day. How could I not know that the dean here is Lu Jiu? We even fild him during our show back then."
Zhou Tongyuan grinned, "But do you know he's now offering free consultations to people in the Disabled Persons' Federation and has gone to the welfare center to aid over a dozen children with cerebral palsy? It's said that thanks to their treatnt, so of these children have shown significant improvent, and of course, all free of charge."
Yan Sansi's eyes widened, "He can treat children with cerebral palsy!?"
Zhou Tongyuan said, "I'm not sure if he's the one treating them, but it's definitely their hospital. Your Healthy Jianghan Live Stream has been lacking doctors, and the departnt heads at the People's Hospital have been reluctant. Coincidentally, this is a newly opened hospital, and they absolutely need promotion. So I thought of bringing you here!"
That's right!
Back then, since Lu Jiu could treat hemiplegia, he had the idea of inviting Lu Jiu to the live stream to share health tips with everyone.
But the leadership at the station disagreed, saying Lu Jiu was just a small doctor from a TCM clinic, not a departnt head from a top-tier hospital, and couldn't join the live stream, so the suggestion was shelved.
Now that Lu Jiu has a hospital and he's the dean, not only can he participate, but the doctors from his hospital can also join.
If this deal is made, then for the subsequent program arrangents of the Healthy Jianghan Live Stream, he wouldn't need to worry about the attitudes of those departnt heads at the People's Hospital anymore.
Plus, with Lu Jiu doing free consultations, helping welfare centers and the Disabled Persons' Federation, they just need to do a few episodes to warm up, which would definitely boost the show's ratings. When the ti cos to report to the leadership, he could proudly hold his head high!
"Alright, Brother Yuan, if this works out, I'm treating you to dinner," Yan Sansi laughed.
"Just so you know, I've got footage of him treating patients. If you're filming at the welfare centers and the Disabled Persons' Federation, you have to give both of us credit," Zhou Tongyuan replied.
"No problem, easy!" Yan Sansi said.
Hearing this, Wei Lele couldn't be happier.
anwhile, there was so activity inside the consultation room.
It was already noon, ti for lunch.
After finishing with a patient, Lu Jiu inford the others to wait a mont while he went to have a al.
However, as he exited the consultation room, he was stopped by Yan Sansi and the others.
"Dr. Lu, oh no, Dean Lu, I'm Yan Sansi, a producer from the TV station's program departnt. Could we discuss sothing with you?"
Lu Jiu glanced over the group, noticing Jian Yongchang was also present. It seed these people were brought by him.
"What's the matter?"
Yan Sansi smiled, "I heard your hospital is supporting welfare centers and the Disabled Persons' Federation, and we wanted to film a few episodes with you."
Oh?
Lu Jiu was quite pleased, "Sure, you're welco to film however you like."
Yan Sansi was delighted and continued, "Besides filming the show, we also want to collaborate with you. There's a half-hour live program at the TV station, Healthy Jianghan Live Stream, which needs doctors to co to the studio to explain so health tips, helping the people of Jianghan improve health awareness and prevent various diseases."
"I want to collaborate with our hospital, getting doctors from your hospital to co and give talks, and of course, if Dean Lu is interested in speaking, you're more than welco. Given your current popularity, if you join our show, the ratings would definitely be very high."
Live stream?
Popularize health knowledge?
This does sound interesting!
Wait a minute...
Suddenly, Lu Jiu thought of sothing and imdiately asked, "Does it cost money?"
This question made Yan Sansi's expression freeze.
Uh...
This model of a hospital collaborating with a TV station to create programs definitely involves charging promotional fees.
But looking at Lu Jiu's wary appearance, could it be that he wants to participate for free?
