The Wizard of Medicine

Chapter 82 Prescription for Depression (Part [-] of the second update)

Lawrence didn't know why his old classmates attached so much importance to the young Mr. Yan, but he didn't ask.

What he worries about is the illness of his relatives: "Milton, Mr. Yan. My mother and my aunt both live in Milwaukee. But they don't communicate with each other. The main reason is that my aunt doesn't like to deal with people, so she has no friends. .She hardly talks to anyone except a few servants. My aunt, well, she's been in a deep depression for almost nine months. Everyone's worried about her."

Lawrence paused, and then said: "Comparatively speaking, my aunt likes me a little bit, but she doesn't accept that I go too many times. Once a year is the limit."

Only allowed to watch it once a year?This is how you don't like to meet people.This lady was obviously lonely, and loneliness is the root of all neuroses.Yan Zixiu thought to himself.

Lawrence continued to introduce the situation: "I'm quite worried about her. I happened to know that Milton was going to give a speech in Milwaukee a while ago, so I called you and hoped for your help."

Milton asked, "Does your aunt live alone?"

"Yes. My aunt usually lives alone in her mansion. She has a housekeeper and a maid. The maid comes to the house every morning, mainly doing housework, cooking and washing dishes, and does not leave until evening. The housekeeper is responsible for buying life supplies, and sometimes a gardener is brought in to landscap the yard,” Lawrence said.

It seems that there are three people living with her, but they are actually parallel to each other, and there is no intersection.Yan Zixiu analyzed in his heart.

Soon, the car came to an area with beautiful scenery and fresh air, and stopped in front of a mansion.

There is a wide lawn in front of the mansion, as well as a parking lot.It is indeed a rich family.

Lawrence went to ring the doorbell.

A woman who looked like a housekeeper came to open the door: "Ah, it turned out to be Mr. Lawrence."

"Rita, this is my classmate—Mr. Milton, a master of psychology. This is his friend, Dr. Yan Zixiu. You know why I'm here." Lawrence introduced.

"Yes. We are all concerned about the health of the master. Then please come with me." The housekeeper Rita turned sideways politely.

"I won't go, lest my aunt bother me." Lawrence shook his head and didn't move.

"Alright then, gentlemen, please follow me." Butler Rita led the way first.

They walk across the courtyard.

The green plants in the courtyard are quite pleasing to the eye.

Under a flower stand, a woman about 50 years old was sitting in a daze. When she heard someone coming, she looked up.

Yan Zixiu saw that her eyes were quite big, and her complexion was gray with a layer of blackness.The whole person looked impatient.This is one of the characteristics of depression, not liking to see people.

"Master, this is Mr. Milton, Mr. Lawrence's classmate, and this is Mr. Milton's friend, Dr. Yan Zixiu." Rita introduced.

Milton and Yan Zixiu nodded slightly: "Ms. Beth." They learned how to address Lawrence's aunt on the way.

Beth nodded indifferently, indicating that she knew.

Milton said: "Ms. Beth, I see that your house is very uniquely decorated. Could you please show us around?"

Yan Zixiu knew that patients with depression had insufficient yang qi, and they could not move without moving.

Sure enough, Ms. Beth's face showed a very reluctant look.

But on the one hand, the guests were friends with his nephew Lawrence, on the other hand, they exalted her and praised her unique house.

Most importantly, she knew that they were helping her treat her mental illness.You can't just ask the butler to receive the distinguished guests.

So she stood up reluctantly, and led Milton and Yan Zixiu around unhappily.

Rita followed.

In a glass sun room, Milton and Yan Zixiu noticed three pots of blooming African violets of different colors.

This kind of flower is small and exquisite, colorful and poetic. It is a famous potted flower in the world.Its flower language and symbolic meanings are: kind and luxuriant, eternally beautiful, eternal beauty, tiny love, and lovable.Propagation can be done by leaf cuttings.

Seeing the guests noticed African violets, the lazy Ms. Beth took the initiative to plant a violet leaf in an empty flowerpot for the first time.

Milton's eyes lit up, and he said to Ms. Beth, "I've found a way to help you. You just have to do it."

Ms. Beth looked at Milton without speaking or objecting.

Milton said to the housekeeper Rita: "I remember that there are about 13 different colors of violets. I hope you can buy one of the same violets of other colors that you don't have at home. You can buy 50 potted plants and violets from the nursery. Some soil. Also, buy another 200 gift pots."

Rita said, "As I'm told."

Milton said to Ms. Beth: "My method is: these flowers need to be propagated and maintained by yourself. Whenever someone gives birth to a child, you give the child a pot of mature African violets. In addition, whenever someone is sick, Or when a girl announces her engagement, or a new couple gets married, you give a pot of violets. Every time there is a charity sale, you take out 10 to 20 pots of violets as a charity sale. In short, at every appropriate time, give a pot of violets Violet out."

When Milton said these words, Ms. Beth seemed to see those scenes.When someone was born, someone got sick, got engaged, got married, she sent a pot of violets that she had grown herself, and people greeted her with smiles.

Her eyes gradually brightened: "Okay, Mr. Milton."

Yan Zixiu secretly confirmed in his heart that he was at Xinzheng Airport and made Tian Yayun look forward to the future, isn't it the same?It can be seen that the wisdom of the East and the West is interlinked.

Yang Qi lasts a lifetime, and depression disappears by itself.

Now that the prescription has been prescribed, Milton and Yan Zixiu left.

Ms. Beth asked Rita butler to pay the consultation fee: "Thank you two gentlemen. I will send it off soon."

Rita escorts the two out of the gate.Lawrence was very happy when he saw Milton and Yan Zixiu coming out, and heard that his aunt had made some positive changes, and warmly invited him to lunch.

On the way to visit, Yan Zixiu talked about his understanding of the prescriptions for depression: "Mr. Milton, there is a Confucian sage in our East named Mencius, he said a word 'single happiness is not as good as all happiness'. I think The prescription you prescribed for Ms. Beth is in line with this concept. Let the person concerned turn his favorite into the joy of everyone. In this way, the isolated island of the soul of the depressed patient will be opened up."

"It's better to be happy alone than to be happy together. Turn your own liking into everyone's joy." Milton refined and repeated, and couldn't help applauding softly, "Okay. Well said."

Milton added. "Yan, there is one more thing. African violets are very delicate plants. If you don't pay attention to them, you can't keep them alive. The light must be just right, and the amount of watering must be just right. So I asked her to take care of about 200 violets, which is equivalent to giving her Arrange the workload of the day so that she has no time to fall into depression and depression. Because she is busy early in the morning and will stay until late."

Lawrence laughed and said, "You are all right. Part of her problem is loneliness, and part of her problem is that she is free."
