Chapter 267: The forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds
He helped Sophie back to the ward, and everyone in the ward was looking at them.
Every leukemia patient has a desire for life.
The 40-year-old lady in the next bed is also a leukemia patient. She is now in her second course of chemotherapy. And her disease has relapsed.
She whispered to her husband who was accompanying her at the bedside, "Xiao Su looks much better. It seems that Chinese medicine is effective." She was obviously tempted and wanted to ask Li Quan to treat her with Chinese medicine.
Sophie's complexion now does look much better than it did this morning.
Li Quan used acupuncture to help her boost her qi and blood, which naturally had an effect.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the middle-aged woman's husband curled his lips and muttered with disapproval.
"It's a different era now. How can Chinese medicine cure diseases? It's all just bullshit. Don't believe in the tricks of those charlatans."
Well, this middle-aged man was afraid that his wife would try traditional Chinese medicine, so he directly called Li Quan a charlatan.
Li Quan was speechless for a while.
The treatment for childhood blood diseases that I learned is not that cheap. It is not someone else's turn to insult me.
He would never beg to treat others.
On the contrary, in the near future, there will surely be numerous leukemia patients begging him for treatment.
All I can say is that this middle-aged man has too deep a prejudice against traditional Chinese medicine and is too self-righteous.
Of course Li Quan would not argue with such a person.
However, after hearing the middle-aged man's mumbling, Sophie felt a little dissatisfied.
She wouldn't allow anyone to insult her boyfriend's medical skills.
"Uncle, my boyfriend is not a charlatan. He is very good at Chinese medicine. After chemotherapy failed to work, my boyfriend gave me acupuncture, and that's when I started to feel better."
She has always been gentle and kind, like a mountain spring, speaking softly and gently.
No matter how dissatisfied you are with others, you will never say harsh words or curse at them.
"Yeah, I didn't say anything. Actually, if you want to advertise, you can go somewhere else. We are all patients in the same ward, so there is no need to deceive us."
The middle-aged man nodded perfunctorily. He said nothing, but what he actually said was very unpleasant.
The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds.
There are not only people like this middle-aged man, but also quite a few of them.
He always thought that everyone in the world wanted to take advantage of him and cheat him out of his money. He thought he was the only smart person in the world.
"You...my family is not short of money, and my boyfriend is even less short of money." Sophie was so angry that her face turned red.
Her family is really not poor.
As for Li Quan, she had heard He Youlong say that Li Quan's annual income was at least 60 million yuan. Although she still had some doubts that He Youlong deliberately exaggerated Li Quan's income in order to match her with Li Quan.
However, it is an ironclad fact that Li Quan earned 100,000 yuan in betrothal money in just seven days.
Neither she nor Li Quan were short of money, and they had never thought of cheating others of their money.
It is so infuriating that this middle-aged man has wrongly accused her and Li Quan of cheating her out of money based solely on his subjective conjecture.
"Haha, don't you know whether your family is short of money or not? This time your family spent 50 million to hire foreign experts, and even sold the house, how can you not be poor? As for your boyfriend, excuse me for being frank, I really can't tell where he has money. From head to toe, except for the doctor's white coat, nothing costs more than a hundred yuan."
The middle-aged man sneered.
The two sides had an argument.
Originally, he insulted Li Quan and called him a charlatan, but Li Quan was not going to take it to heart.
Now he is getting ahead of himself and saying that Li Quan and Sophie are colluding to cheat the patients in the same ward out of their money. This is a bit abominable.
"Fei, there's no need for us to bother with this kind of person. Don't worry, even if he kneels down and begs me to treat his wife, I won't agree." Li Quan was really angry this time.
As a doctor, I will definitely not argue with my patients.
There is no need for that.
I believe that before long, this middle-aged man will definitely regret what he said and did today. When he knows that Li Quan's traditional Chinese medicine can really cure leukemia, he will probably kneel down like a dog and beg Li Quan.
"Would I ask a charlatan like you to cure my wife's illness?" The middle-aged man couldn't help but get furious. Fortunately, his wife was reasonable and quickly pulled him back.
Li Quan is a doctor at Huier Hospital and he is familiar with some basic principles.
He certainly would not take the initiative to argue with the patient any further.
After chatting with Sophie for a few minutes, he went straight to the office of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Research Department to pick out Hua Tuo's medical books.
Some time ago, he made a request to Director Li Ding to collect as many medical books of ancient famous doctors as possible even some books that were not medical books.
Because those books are useless to others, but very useful to Li Quan.
For example, the "Five Animal Exercises" and "Two Oxen Picture" that Li Quan had read were not medical books, but he gained a very high degree of favorability from them.
The medical books of ancient famous doctors collected by Director Li Ding were temporarily stored by Li Quan in the office of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Research Department.
This is also to make it convenient for him to check at any time.
After all, the hospital library will close after working hours.
If there are some medical books by ancient famous doctors that are not available on the market, Li Quan is also worried that they will be borrowed by others or even lost or damaged.
After reading Qian Yi's original medical book, he gained 100 points of favorability, which made him eager to get every unique copy.
Hua Tuo's medical skills were very famous in ancient times, and he was even revered as the founder of surgery.
Unfortunately, he was born in the most chaotic and war-torn era.
In Chinese history, the most serious wars were not during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, but rather during the Western Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms period. Just look at the famous generals who emerged during that period.
No dynasty in history had as many famous generals as the Three Kingdoms period.
Various brave and wise generals appeared on the scene one after another.
As the saying goes, it is easy to get thousands of soldiers, but it is difficult to get a good general.
Times make heroes. Where do you think so many brave and wise generals came from? They were forced out by the wars of that period.
Hua Tuo was very unfortunate, as he was born in the chaotic war years. Very few of the medical books he wrote with great effort have survived. Many people even suspect that none of them exist.
It is very likely that the few medical books of Hua Tuo that still exist today, including the Five Animal Exercises and the Pillow Book of Moxibustion and Acupuncture, are not authentic.
Instead, it was compiled by later generations based on the medical skills and fragments left by Hua Tuo.
Even though Li Quan asked the professional curator Li Ding to collect the books, he still only collected two books by Hua Tuo. One of them was the Five Animal Exercises, which Li Quan had already read. It was a fitness book that was too common.
The other one is the "Pillow Moxibustion and Acupuncture Sutra" mentioned just now.
Therefore, Li Quan had no choice but to read "The Pillow Book of Moxibustion and Acupuncture" if he wanted to gain Hua Tuo's favor.
Fortunately, he had already exchanged for Hua Tuo's surgical skills.
The remaining medical skills were actually of little use to him.
Only the Five Animal Play techniques could catch his eye.
As for anesthesia and expectoration, it would be best if you can learn them. It doesn't matter if you can't.
Modern anesthesia technology should be stronger than Hua Tuo's anesthesia technique.
