Gu Yundong was going to take Mother Yang to see a doctor.
When she was in Gu's house, Gu Dajiang took her to the county capital, but unfortunately all the
money was in Old Madam Zhao's hands at that time. Gu Dajiang's private savings were limited, and he naturally could only see few doctors.
Moreover, every time Old Madam Zhao would see them going out, she would make a scene.
Gu Yundong had inquired about it a few days ago. There were many clinics in Xuanhe City, the largest was Huimin Medical Clinic in the south of the city.
There was a doctor surnamed He who had cured two patients like her mother.
Dr. He went on a long trip to see a colleague and only came back yesterday.
Gu Yundong only brought Mother Yang there.
Dr. He had high medical skills and his status in the medical clinic was naturally high, so the price of consultation was also expensive.
When Gu Yundong and her mother arrived, there were three patients in front of them, and they had to wait nearly half an hour before it was their turn.
Mother Yang was a little nervous, grabbing Gu Yundong's hand tightly, "Dongdong..."
"Mother, let the doctor's check your pulse first. Don't worry, it's alright, I'm here."
Doctor He had kind eyes and asked a few questions. Then he reached out his hand, closed his eyes slightly and carefully examined her pulse.
However, the more time passed, the tighter his brows became, and Gu Yundong gradually had a very bad premonition.
When Doctor He withdrew his hand, Gu Yundong hurriedly asked, "How is my mother?"
Doctor He didn't respond ,he just stood up and walked behind Mother Yang to look at the back of her head.
Mother Yang became nervous all of a sudden, Gu Yundong hurriedly patted her hand soothingly.
Doctor He looked at her carefully for a long time before sitting down, but his expression was not very good.
He asked Gu Yundong, "Did other doctors give her an acupuncture treatment when they saw her ?"
In reality, every time Gu Dajiang took Mother Tang to the clinic, Gu Yundong did not follow them.
So she didn't really know whether or not Mother Yang received acupuncture.
"I think they did. When I was in Yongning prefecture, a doctor treated my mother. He gave my mother acupuncture and said it would dispel the congestion. However, after the first treatment, my mother was in a coma for a day, the doctor said that this was a normal phenomenon. He added that she needed to go to his clinic for a few more times for the treatment, that the congestion would slowly dissolve and then Mother would recover completely. But then Yongning prefecture was in chaos, and my parents stopped going.''
"Nonsense! Quack doctor!!" Doctor He was so angry that he cursed loudly. Mother Yang was so
frightened that she turned around and hugged Gu Yundong tightly, closing her eyes tightly.
Dr. He took two deep breaths, his tone was still rigid, "The human brain is the most complicated. How can acupuncture be given randomly when you are not sure that its the right treatment. Also, just to disperse congestion, it's really a quack doctor."
Gu Yundong's expression became solemn, "What Doctor He means is that my mother ..."
"Sigh, if it was before i would be confident that I could cure her. But sadly, she has been treated by that quack doctor, so I am only 30% sure. If I make a mistake, it may be counterproductive and I might not even be able to save her life." Dr. He waved his hand, "It's better to keep it this way, at least she is alive."
"Is there no other way ?"
Doctor He shook his head, paused, and after thinking for a few seconds, said, "There is someone who may be able to cure it."
Gu Yundong's eyes lit up, "Who?"
"The Imperial Physician Song Taiyi, he graduated from the Imperial Hospital, and I received his teachings many times before. It's a pity that he is traveling now and I don't know when he will come back. ''
It was good to have hope.
Gu Yundong immediately said, "Then, can I trouble Doctor He to send someone to deliver a message to Yumi Lane when Imperial physician Song comes back?"
After saying that, she took out five taels of silver and handed it over.
