Merchant and doctor

Chapter 21 Human heart is the most difficult to heal
Grandpa often said that when strangers and men and women sit at the same table to eat, try not to drink alcohol, and lonely men and widows should not drink at all when eating at the same table.

What's more, it's just a dinner, simple and delicious, with balanced nutrition, Bian Mu specifically told the proprietress not to serve wine.

Bian Mu ordered three dishes of "Small Vegetarian Pork Stir-Fried Three Shreds", "Cold Beef with Sauce Fragrance", and "Homemade Tofu". .

In addition, Bian Mu also asked the proprietress to cook two casserole rice porridge with red dates, semi-finished products, add water and red dates and simmer for a while.

"Wangtianbai" meat is white and tender. Master Guo's cooking skills are quite good. The fire is too oily to kill the fish and remove the evil. It takes a while to simmer on a low fire. It is the finale.

The two chatted while eating. Although Mrs. Chen had seen the world, she also praised Mr. Guo's cooking skills. While chatting and laughing, the food had already gone down for less than half.

In fact, Mrs. Chen usually eats very little.

"At the hospital that day, Doctor Bian seemed hesitant to speak. Does Lao Chen have some hidden illness? It's hard to say in front of everyone?" The politeness was over, Mrs. Chen smiled and pointed out the purpose of today's visit. .

"Indeed! Ma'am! Who bought the shoes Mr. Chen usually wears?" Bian Mu suddenly asked about Mr. Chen's shoes.

"I bought it together before, but then I was busy too! His personal assistant bought it, and my mother-in-law also bought it for him when she was traveling abroad. What's wrong?" Mrs. Chen was at a loss.

"Although the kidney tumor matter is temporarily closed, Mr. Chen was born out of phase, so he escaped, but... he does have some problems with his kidney." Bian Mu explained with a serious expression.

"Ah?! Serious?" Mrs. Chen's complexion suddenly changed, and the chopsticks in her hand almost fell to the dining table. Fortunately, she is a person who has seen the world, and her mind is concentrated, and the expression on her face soon returns to normal. .

"How should I put it... You are usually busy with business, and you may not have noticed that the soles of the shoes worn by Mr. Chen are much thicker and softer than before. We have seen many such situations before, but, like Mr. Chen, looking for The manufacturer's special order is a bit unusual, so I observed it carefully and participated in the pulse condition at the same time, and finally came to the conclusion: Mr. Chen should belong to 'kidney yang deficiency', and it has been going on for a long time. If he can't get the correct treatment in time , I'm afraid it's..." Bian Mu explained patiently for a long time.

"How serious will it be in the end?" Mrs. Chen was a little impatient.

"This... I'm afraid life-threatening!" Bian Mu said honestly.

"Ah?! How did this happen?!" Before the words finished, the chopsticks in Mrs. Chen's hands fell to the dining table, and one of them slipped to the ground.

Well!Not long after the shadow of the tumor had been wiped away, the fear of life suddenly fell on his head, which was hard for anyone to accept.

Seeing this scene, Bian Mu hurriedly pulled two napkin pads on his right hand, bent over to pick up the chopstick on the ground, walked a few steps, and threw it into the trash can.

"Don't worry, people who eat whole grains will never get sick. I'm just saying that if you don't take care of it well, your life will be in danger in the future, not what will happen immediately." Returning to his seat, Bian Mu He quickly comforted Mrs. Chen with a few words.

"Since you have made such a thorough diagnosis, there must be a cure for it?" Mrs. Chen took Bian Mu as a life-saving straw.

"This... Mr. Chen's disease has a special cause. If he doesn't cooperate, the disease is really difficult to cure. Besides, I am young, so I may be able to analyze the pathology and formulate a specific treatment plan... I I'm a little bit powerless." Bian Mu answered truthfully.

"Oh! The cause is special? How do you say that?" Speaking of this, Mrs. Chen seemed to realize something, her eyes wandered, as if she was trying to catch some suspicious signs by turning on the flash memory mode of her brain.

"This... I want to say it, it may affect the relationship between you and your husband, so...you know, I have not yet married, some things are purely deduced from the medical theory in books, real life is ever-changing, it is too complicated! Maybe Chen is always an exception!" Bian Mu didn't excuse Mr. Chen, what he said was actually the truth.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chen's face became gloomy, and she was speechless for a while.

What Bian Mu said just confirmed some of Mrs. Chen's previous conjectures. The world is afraid of associations, not to mention Mrs. Chen's shrewdness, and her mind gradually came to the fore.

"If he is really in danger of his life, how long can he live at the longest?" Mrs. Chen asked with a serious expression.

"It has to be calculated based on Chen Zongxin's physical examination report. Generally speaking, every time the special soft-soled shoes on Mr. Chen's feet increase by one millimeter, the condition will worsen, and correspondingly, the longevity will be relatively reduced. According to relevant ancient books According to the records, if you use Yin-Yang and Five Elements calculations, it can be specific to a month. However, that is just a legend. Anyway, I have never done similar calculations for patients. You don’t have to be so pessimistic. For the master doctor Nie Yixiong, Mr. Chen's illness may not be a big deal at all, of course, the premise is that he has to tell the truth to Senior Nie."

"It can be seen that Doctor Bian is a very sensible person. Why don't we open the window and speak out, there is no need to hide it. Did you say that our old Chen has a woman outside?"

"It's about the same... It's different from ordinary people. Mr. Chen has a good family background and is not short of money, so... some things may be done in a more secretive way. As long as the symptoms are not particularly obvious, he will never admit it. By then , I’m afraid it will be counterproductive and things will go against our wishes, senior Nie’s medical skills are superb, and his experience is like a sea, so there may be a better way.” Bian Mu suggested.

"Yes! I understand!" Mrs. Chen replied coldly.

At this moment, the "Watching the Moon White" steamed fish was served.

Maybe she was in a bad mood, Mrs. Chen took a few sips politely, put the new chopsticks on the table and didn't feel like eating anymore.

Bian Mu knew the value of the steamed fish in front of him. Seeing that Mrs. Chen was not in a good mood, he had no choice but to pretend to be confused, and lowered his head to taste a few mouthfuls of delicious food.

Mrs. Chen was very self-cultivated, and she couldn't leave just because she was in a mess. It would be too disrespectful to do so, so she took out her mobile phone and started sending short messages to different people. Her expression was very calm, and she had to admit that the The psychological quality of this business woman is quite strong.

Bian Mu sat there and ate very awkwardly, and after a few mouthfuls, he called the proprietress to come over and pay the bill.

Mrs. Chen paid for the meal first, forced a smile, and left with a few simple and polite words.

Bian Mu followed closely behind, and sent Mrs. Chen to the parking lot all the way to the parking lot. After watching Mrs. Chen get in the car and leave in a hurry, he turned around and went home.

……

In the dead of night, Bian Mu suddenly felt something was wrong when he recalled the details of dining with Mrs. Chen in the small restaurant.

"'Kidney-Yang Deficiency' can be divided into many types. With Mrs. Chen's level of education and her shrewd mind, she should at least ask me about the relevant pathological details. For example, the pathological origin of deliberately thickened shoe soles. , the dialectical relationship between kidney yang deficiency and gout, and other key details, why didn't she mention a word?" Bian Mu thought to himself.

After thinking about it, Bian Mu gradually realized that Mrs. Chen probably didn't intend to tell her husband the real illness at all, and it was even more impossible to talk about how to treat it.

Thinking carefully, Bian Mu couldn't help but feel his back start to feel cold...
