Chapter 351 A minor cold
Zhao Anmin's face was full of smiles.
"I don't have any other wishes now. I just want to hold my grandson in my arms as soon as possible."
"Mr. Zhao, let's talk about your old friend."
Lin Fan cleverly changed the subject.
"Well, you know there are ten famous families in Ancheng, right?"
Zhao Anmin suppressed his smile and spoke seriously.
"One of the families is the Situ family, and the old patriarch of the Situ family is Situ Daxian."
"Oh I got it."
Lin Fan was not surprised. After all, the old man had such a high status, so his old friend would naturally not be ordinary.
But these two names, one is Anmin and the other is Daxian, really seem to match each other.
Daxian and I have been companions since our youth. Later, I took over the Zhao family, and he led the Situ family, thus forming a solid alliance between the two families. Zhao Anmin paused at this point.
"Oh, by the way, the last time I 'died', the head of the Situ family came in person, and my old friend cried his heart out at home."
"You have experienced two 'deaths'. Which one are you referring to?" Lin Fan asked, suppressing his smile.
"You mean the one that almost had a funeral? Or the one about the poisoning?"
"It was that time when we almost had a funeral." Zhao Anmin answered with a smile, at the same time with a hint of gratitude.
"If it weren't for you, I'd probably be buried in the ground."
With a chuckle, Zhao Xingmin, who was driving, couldn't help laughing.
"You're still laughing. If Xiaofan wasn't here, you would be dead." Zhao Anmin said with a stern face.
"Yes, yes, I am very grateful to Xiaofan. I will treat Xiaofan to a meal alone some other day. I will arrange it."
"That's more like it, but you're only allowed to eat. Don't take Xiaofan to those smoky and foul places. Do you understand?"
"Xiao Fan just came from the countryside and is still an innocent person."
"Look at what you're saying. Where can I take him?"
"Besides, do I dare to take him with me? If Ziqing knew, wouldn't she sever the father-daughter relationship with me?"
"Take me with you. Can't we just keep Ziqing in the dark? It's time for this innocent child to see the world."
Lin Fan thought to himself that this future father-in-law must be a veteran in Ancheng!
In the old mansion of the Situ family in Ancheng, a frail old man lay on a hospital bed, breathing weakly. His family members were chatting quietly around him.
"Brother, Master Li is here."
"Please come in quickly."
A burly man responded quickly.
"Divine Doctor Xu is here too."
"Come in," the man said
In less than half an hour, more than a dozen renowned doctors had gathered in the old house, making the space seem crowded. They examined Situ Daxian one by one, and ultimately came to the conclusion that his time was running out and there was no way to save him.
"Master, you have to be prepared. The old master won't have much time left, only two or three days." Master Li, a famous local doctor in Ancheng, spoke to the man as a representative.
"Only two or three days?"
Hearing Master Li's words, the man's heart trembled.
"My father has always been in great health, how could that be possible?"
"Alas, life is unpredictable. Many normally healthy people can quickly deteriorate once they become ill."
Master Li sighed.
"Some people who often suffer from minor illnesses may not develop serious illnesses."
"Are they helpless?"
The man looked at the dozen or so famous doctors present and asked.
"We have discussed it, but there is really nothing we can do."
Master Li shook his head.
"No, I want to save my father. You guys think of another way."
The man spoke loudly, his voice filled with deeper sorrow.
"Mr. Situ, given our status, if we say we are powerless to save the patient, then we really can't do anything." An old doctor with a white beard said in a heavy tone.
"Indeed."
Voices of agreement echoed from all around. These individuals were leading figures in the nation's medical field, and their decision practically sealed the patient's fate.
"Mr. Situ, it's better to prepare early."
After hearing this, Situ Lei was overwhelmed with emotion, his eyes reddened, and he said in disbelief: "How is this possible? My father is obviously fine, how could it be..."
"Mr. Situ, aren't you questioning our medical skills?" The old doctor frowned, looking a little dissatisfied.
Although the Situ family holds a prominent position in Ancheng, these doctors each have their own backgrounds and are therefore not afraid of Situ Lei.
"Old Chen, that's not what Mr. Situ meant. He has a deep affection for his father and his feelings are understandable." Another doctor, Li Shengshou, tried to ease the atmosphere.
Situ Lei looked at Li Shengshou and said with a wry smile, "Yes, birth, old age, sickness and death, no one can escape it."
At this time, someone hurriedly came to report: "Mr. Situ, Mr. Zhao is here to visit."
"Please come in!" Situ Lei hurried out to greet him.
"Situ Lei has met Mr. Zhao."
"You're welcome. How is your father?"
Zhao Anmin walked into the house as he spoke, "Take me to see it quickly."
Arriving at the bedside, Zhao Anmin saw Situ Daxian, who was breathing weakly, and his eyes became moist. He held his hand and said, "Daxian, I'm here to see you. Talk to me."
Seeing this scene, Situ Lei felt even more sad. Not long ago, Mr. Zhao was also critically ill, and his father had visited him at that time.
Unexpectedly, the situation has now been reversed, and Mr. Zhao has miraculously recovered.
Thinking of this, Situ Lei suddenly remembered something and looked at Lin Fan beside him.
"Lin Fan, come and show it to Patriarch Situ!"
"Ok."
Lin Fan nodded, walked to the bedside, and began to take Situ Daxian's pulse.
"Mr. Zhao, he..."
Situ Lei looked at Lin Fan expectantly.
"Don't be anxious, don't disturb Xiaofan." Zhao Anmin said.
"Ok."
Situ Lei fell silent and waited quietly.
This action aroused the curiosity of more than a dozen famous doctors around, and they all turned their heads to watch.
Seeing Lin Fan taking Situ Daxian's pulse, everyone was a little surprised, wondering how much medical skills this young man knew.
Traditional Chinese Medicine is profound, and it is difficult to grasp its essence without decades of study!
And real masters of traditional Chinese medicine are usually in their fifties or sixties!
Lin Fan is so young, he probably can’t even remember the names and effects of all the Chinese medicines!
About two minutes later, Lin Fan withdrew his hand.
"Doctor, how is it?"
Situ Lei asked anxiously. His respectful address for Lin Fan puzzled the famous doctors present.
If this young man is a miracle doctor, then what are they?
"There's no serious problem." Lin Fan said with a slight smile.
"A few injections will give it some relief."
"what?"
Situ Lei opened his eyes wide, because he had heard many famous doctors say that his father's condition was critical and incurable, but now Lin Fan said that acupuncture could solve it?
His tone was so relaxed as if he was just dealing with a minor cold!
"really?"
Zhao Anmin also seemed very excited.
