At Ma's house, Zhou Chen checked Wang Sufang's pulse. Wang Sufang wanted to cough but was afraid of disturbing Zhou Chen, so she could only try to restrain herself.
After a while, Zhou Chen let go of his hand and said softly: "It's better. I'll take medicine for a few more days."
Hearing this, several people in the room breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhou Chen explained a few more words and then left: "Then I'll go back first. I still have some unfinished business at home."
Peng Yongli said: "I'm going with you. I just have a few questions I want to ask you."
With that said, she went upstairs to get her books.
"Okay, I'll wait for you outside."
Zhou Chen came to the door and waited. After a while, Ma Kui came out and pulled Zhou Chen aside.
"Zhou Chen, tell me the truth, how is your aunt's health?"
He is a policeman, and his observation is subtle. Unlike his daughters, he just saw something different in Zhou Chen's expression, so he chased him out to ask.
Zhou Chen said in a deep voice: "Uncle Ma, I won't hide it from you. My aunt's health is indeed not very good. I'm afraid, I'm afraid it will only be in the past year or two."
"What?"
Ma Kui shook his body, with a look of disbelief on his face. He eagerly grabbed Zhou Chen's arm.
"How could this happen? Hasn't she always been fine? Haven't you already cured her?"
"Uncle Ma, you know very well what kind of illness aunt is suffering from. I have no ability to cure it. I have just been controlling it. However, aunt's health is worse than ordinary people. She has been tired over the years and has been sick several times since the beginning of spring.
My body and bones are getting worse and worse, and now even if I use acupuncture, it won’t have much effect.”
Acupuncture in traditional Chinese medicine may have miraculous qualities, but after all, it is not a cure-all. When the body is in good health, the effect is very good, but Wang Sufang's body is riddled with holes, and even if he uses acupuncture, it is difficult to change it.
Ma Kui looked sad. Of course he understood. In fact, he understood it after they came back from seeking medical treatment.
It's just that Zhou Chen's methods in recent years have kept Wang Sufang alive and well, so much so that their family has almost forgotten that Wang Sufang is terminally ill. They always feel that as long as Zhou Chen is around, that day will be far away from them.
But in fact, more than five years have passed since then. Experts in the capital said that without surgery, it might only last one or two years. But under Zhou Chen's treatment, he survived for five years.
Over the years, this has been much better than the results they heard at the time.
"Really, is there really nothing we can do?"
"I can only prescribe some healing prescriptions. If you take good care of yourself, you may be able to survive for another year or two."
Ma Kui was silent for a few seconds, and then said: "I understand, don't tell your aunt and Ma Yan about this."
"Don't worry, Uncle Ma."
At this time, Peng Yongli came over, and Ma Kui immediately adjusted his expression and smiled, as if nothing happened.
Peng Yongli followed Zhou Chen back home and suddenly asked: "I heard some of what you just said. Is the second mother really helpless?"
She couldn't help but think of her mother who died of illness when she was young. She had lived in Ma's house for more than two years. Wang Sufang, the second mother, was very good to her. From Wang Sufang, she felt like a mother, so after learning about Wang Sufang
If it didn't work out, she would be very sad.
Zhou Chen didn't say anything, he just gently put her in his arms, hugged her and comforted her.
He is just a doctor, not a god. He can live for five or six years in the late stage of lung cancer. He has done his best. The rest can only be left to God.
Peng Yongli leaned in Zhou Chen's arms, hugged Zhou Chen tightly, and shed tears of sadness.
"Zhou Chen, I want to go buy something for my second father and second mother. Let's go together when I'm on my next weekend."
"Okay, what do you want to buy?"
"Clothes, shoes, etc. I see that my second father and second mother always wear those clothes all year round. They don't even have two pairs of shoes, they are all worn out. In the past two years, they have been very good to me. They have always taken good care of me and treated me well."
I am closer than my own daughter, and I have always wanted to reciprocate, but my second father always refused to let me give him anything."
She lived in the Ma family for two years. Although her father brought many things to the Ma family, she did not contribute much herself. At most, she helped with housework and taught Ma Jian to study, so she felt very sorry for Ma Kui and his wife.
.
"Our family Lili has a filial piety, okay, I will accompany you."
"Then we've made an agreement."
Zhou Chen was about to give a lecture to Peng Yongli when someone suddenly knocked on the door.
"Zhou Chen, Zhou Chen is not at home. I, your old Brother Wu, have something to do with you."
