Se Tingnan said, "Yes, the traditional Chinese doctor we consulted before said the sa thing, but after he took so traditional Chinese dicine, he didn’t get better."
The traditional Chinese doctor they had seen before was very famous, a master of Chinese dicine.
Initially, Se Tingnan wasn’t entirely sure about Si Mingjing’s dical skills. But now, hearing Si Mingjing describe the sa symptoms that the master of Chinese dicine had ntioned, Se Tingnan felt reassured. "My dear niece-in-law, can it be cured?"
After making a diagnosis, Si Mingjing picked up paper and pen, wrote down a prescription, and said, "Yes, it can be treated. I will prescribe Zhen Gan Xi Feng Tang. Take it for three days to start with."
Having written the prescription, Si Mingjing handed it to Se Tingnan and added, "There’s a traditional Chinese dicine store in Yecheng, run by my senior brother. It’s Zhang’s Traditional Chinese dicine Hall, located on the first floor of Yinhai Building. You can get your dicine there; if needed, the dicine hall can also prepare the decoctions for you."
Se Tingnan took the prescription and read it: Achyranthes bidentata 15g, Pueraria root 30g, unprocessed Hematite 30g, unprocessed Dragon bone 30g, unprocessed Oyster shell 30g, unprocessed Plastrum Testudinis 10g, white Peony root 15g, Scrophularia 15g, Asparagus tuber 15g, Sichuan chinaberry 3g, unprocessed malt 5g, Capillaris 5g, stir-fried sour Jujube seed 20g, roasted Licorice 5g. Three doses, one dose daily. Captopril 12.5mg, twice a day; Cinnarizine 25mg, three tis a day.
The prescription seed different from what the famous traditional Chinese doctor had prescribed before.
Se Tingnan asked her husband, "Shall we try it for three days?"
Yan Bei, sprawled on the couch, glanced at the prescription and said, "Hmm."
At that mont, Yan Mu ca out of the washroom, his eyes still tearing up.
Se Tingnan called out to her son, "Ah Mu, co here. Go get your father’s dicine. What happened to you?"
Yan Mu’s eyes were red and swollen, looking rather miserable.
He said, "It’s nothing, my eyes just got irritated by tear gas. Is the consultation done? Where do we go for the dicine?"
Ye Shen, holding the car keys, said, "Let’s go. I’ll go with you; I know where it is."
And so off went Ye Shen and Yan Mu, the pair of ’plastic brothers’.
After the ’plastic brothers’ had left, Se Tingnan again took Si Mingjing’s hand, asking earnestly, "My dear child, I heard from my Zhenxi that you looked after her during her postpartum confinent. She said your dical skills are excellent. We made this special trip hoping you could cure my husband’s vertigo.
Doctors have told us that many conditions can cause vertigo, so severe, so mild. Mild cases are often overlooked, while severe cases beco difficult to treat. As one gets older, so types of vertigo might even lead to a stroke."
Just hearing the word "stroke" scared Se Tingnan terribly. Even though her husband wasn’t taking it seriously, Se Tingnan couldn’t afford to let him be so indifferent.
Si Mingjing reassured her, saying, "Don’t worry, Auntie. Let’s start with three days and see the effects. Then I can give Uncle another check-up and adjust the dosage if needed. After a few courses of treatnt, he should recover. It might take about a month and a half."
Ye Xinguang, sitting nearby, also smiled, consoling Se Tingnan, "If my daughter-in-law says a month and a half, then it will definitely be a month and a half. You should stay here. I’ve had soone tidy up the villa for you. After dinner, I’ll have soone drive you over."
Se Tingnan was grateful. "Xingguang, thank you for going to such trouble."
"Sister-in-law, why be so formal with ?"
Ye Xinguang wouldn’t let Se Tingnan feel like an outsider. "With our many years of friendship, is there any need to ntion ’trouble’? If I weren’t afraid you’d feel constrained staying in the palace, I would have arranged a guest room for you long ago. But the villa is nice too, just outside the palace. You can rest assured about the security here; it’s definitely top-notch."
As the forr president of A Country, Yan Bei had a specialized security team, which had already gone to the villa to arrange security.
Se Tingnan said with a smile, "Then we won’t stand on ceremony. I heard Ye Siyuan is getting engaged. Who is the other party? Why has no information been released yet? Zhenxi ntioned he’s soone from the ocean?"
Speaking of this, Ye Xinguang couldn’t help but complain, "She chose him herself. If it were up to , I wouldn’t want my daughter to marry so far away. I just want to keep her by my side. I really don’t want her to marry far away. If she marries far off and faces any grievances in the future, I won’t be able to support her imdiately."
All parents think this way.
On this point, Se Tingnan and Ye Xinguang deeply resonated. Se Tingnan hadn’t let Zhenxi marry far away; they all lived in the Imperial Capital of A Country. When she wanted to see her daughter and grandchildren, it was just a five-minute car ride. Being able to look after them made her feel secure.
Ye Siyuan was also soone Se Tingnan had watched grow up, and Se Tingnan was very concerned about her, so she asked a few more questions, "How is the young man’s character?"
Si Mingjing hurriedly interjected, "Auntie, there’s no problem with his character. He really treasures Si Yuan."
"Oh, that’s good. When choosing a partner, it’s essential to pick soone who cherishes you. But that’s just the basic requirent. If a man doesn’t love and cherish her, then why marry at all?"
Se Tingnan wasn’t so easily convinced about the young man. She said, "eting the basic requirents is one thing, but one also has to consider his family background and capabilities. All parents want to choose the best for their child."
Si Mingjing added, "While I can’t say he’s the best, he’s definitely among the top. Si Yuan has good judgnt."
Se Tingnan could tell that Si Mingjing was very protective of the young man. She smiled and said, "That is true; Si Yuan has always had good taste. And with Yinhe to vet him for her, if he weren’t among the best, he wouldn’t have caught Yinhe’s eye. With a doting brother like Mo Yinhe, who is known for spoiling his sister, to approve him, this young man must indeed be quite decent."
They don’t call Mo Yinhe the number one eliminator of romantic rivals for nothing!
How many budding romances were stamped out under Mo Yinhe’s foot before they could even blossom!
Now that Ye Siyuan was getting engaged, her choice would undoubtedly have to pass Mo Yinhe’s inspection first.
That put Se Tingnan’s mind at ease.
Afterward, the conversation drifted, and they chatted about other things.
After Ye Shen and Yan Mu had bought the dicine, they all had dinner together.
Yan Mu arranged for the Traditional Chinese dicine Hall to brew the dicine. He took his father’s security very seriously. After the herbs were bought, he had them inspected to ensure there were no issues before allowing his own people to prepare the decoction.
At the dinner table, several children were sitting in a row, which left Yan Mu dumbfounded. "Where did all these children co from?"
Ye Shen boasted, "They’re all my brother’s!"
Yan Mu: "......."
Yan Mu put on a serious face, pointed at the row of children, and asked, "Alright, you little rascals, confess—who launched the attack on ?"
Yan Mu’s eyes were still red. He was eager to catch the culprits and give them a stern lecture. As hosts, they shouldn’t treat a guest like this!
Ye Nianbai blinked her sly eyes and asked, "Uncle Yan, what’s wrong? Did you get hit in the face? Are you crying?"
"Xiaobai, was it you? Is this how you treat Uncle Yan, who has carried you on his shoulders and let you ride him like a horse since you were little?"
Ye Nianbai imdiately put on an expression of feigned innocence. "It wasn’t this young master!"
"Then who was it? Hands up, let see!"
No sooner had the words left his mouth than all the Little Dragon Cubs, including Xiaobai, raised their hands. They would share fortune and misfortune together; no one would betray another!
