606 Bear the Hurt by Myself (1/2)
”You, you just know how to keep working!” Professor Lin smiled and shook his head. ”This opportunity is rare. You have merits, and the leadership also has the intention. Making a further step means a better platform with better treatment, better working environment, and more research funds. Even if you don't care about fame and fortune, you have to consider the young people who are following you. I heard they are a bit unsatisfied with you!”
Professor Wu was silent for a while. He then said, ”I'll think about it.”
”That's right, you have to change your temper,” Professor Lin said.
”Change what? I think it is very good,” Professor Wu said.

In the his clinic, Wang Yao was considering the illness of the man who suffered from the anorexia. As he thought, he knew this illness would require unique treatment.
He could not see it or smell it. The treatment would also require the cooperation of the patient and his family members.
In addition, Wang Yao also prepared a drug to stimulate the man's appetite.
Chinese yam, hawthorn...
These so-called appetizing medicinal materials were foods. Some of them were to stimulate the taste buds. This would hopefully promote a healthy appetite.
As he wrote, Wang Yao though, He can't just rely on medicine. Otherwise, the taste of the medicinal agent is likely to cause bad consequences. If he did not just dislike foods, and even disliked drinks and soups, it would be more troublesome.
The last time he spoke with the man, he told Wang Yao that he was able to drink some liquid food, such as chicken soup and porridge. But, that was it.
Based on that, Wang Yao though, First, he needs to drink soup to stimulate his appetite without seeing what he is eating.
Wang Yao gradually came up with a treatment plan. He prepared several herbs. They were really quite simple since they were just an aid in the man's recovery.
He called the man and asked him and his family to come the next morning for treatment.
Around dusk, Wang Yao was about to close the door and go home. Suddenly, Wang Zecheng hobbled toward the clinic entrance with an injured face.
”What's wrong?” Wang Yao hurriedly opened the door and let him in.
”The speed was a little faster when I was riding on the road, so I fell,” Wang Zecheng said.
”It looks serious,” Wang Yao said.
”Oh, it's OK!” Wang Zecheng bit his teeth.
He was actually experiencing severe pain. After he got off work, he rushed back from town to have a meal. After eating, he had to go back out to work at his night job. In order to make it there in time, he was riding faster than usual. When he was at the entry of the village, he fell down while avoiding a sheep.
”Let me see.” Wang Yao carefully checked him. ”Fortunately, you didn't hurt the bones. What about your head? Does it hurt? Were you wearing a helmet?”
”I wore it. My head does not hurt. My face is just painful,” Wang Zecheng said.
If he had not been wearing a helmet, he could have suffered more severe injuries in the fall.
”I will give you some medicine.” Wang Yao got up and got some medicine.
The medicine was made in the mountains. It was very effective for traumatic injuries, such as bruises. He had tried them on other patients, and it worked well.
”It may be a little painful,” Wang Yao said. He carefully applied the medicine to injury and bandaged it.
”Oh, ah!” Wang Zecheng exclaimed.
”Come on, I will give you a massage,” Wang Yao said.
”Really?” Wang Zecheng asked.
”Yes. It promotes blood circulation to dissipate stasis,” Wang Yao said. ”That will help some of the muscles on the contusion recovered more quickly.”
The fall was serious, even if he didn't hurt his bones. Some muscle tissue contusions on his body were inevitable. His body would take a few weeks to heal.
”Oh, OK,” Wang Zecheng said.
”It might be painful.” Wang Yao began to massage him with a unique technique.
”Ah, it hurts!” Wang Zecheng shouted.
”Put up with it,” Wang Yao said. He was already using light pressure.
Wang Yao massaged Wang Zecheng's back, leg, and arm contusions. He was in so much pain that he kept quivering. If Wang Yao had not given him a piece of gauze to bite, he would have been grinding his teeth. He sweated profusely, which drenched his clothes inside.
”Now,, go back and have a good rest. Don't engage in heavy physical labor for seven days. Don't work,” Wang Yao said.
”Ah, seven days?” Wang Zecheng was shocked.
”What's the matter?” Wang Yao asked.
”But, I have to work,” Wang Zecheng said.
His family relied on him for money, especially his father, whose medicine was expensive. How couldn't he not be anxious? He had hoped to take on a third labor job to make money.
”In order to buy medicine for your father?” Wang Yao asked.
”Yes,” Wang Zecheng said.
In order to afford the medicine, he was borrowing money from others. In life, most things could be easily dealt with except borrowing money.
