Chapter 427 Treating Master Gu
Chapter 427 Treating Master Gu
As Patriarch Gu spoke, he looked back at everyone in the Gu family.
But after just one look, I didn't see the person I wanted to see.
My heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
He silently counted the number of people again. He remembered the Gu family. There were still two little ones, a grandson and a granddaughter. Why were they not here today?
And he didn't see his sixth brother either, thinking about the difficulties he had experienced over the years.
Is it...
Master Gu didn't dare to think any further at this point, and his expression turned somewhat ugly.
Suppressing the terrible thoughts in my mind, I tried hard to suppress the worries in my heart, pretending to be concerned and said, "Da Hai, why don't you see your father?
I remember that Dahe's family has a son and a daughter. The girl was still asleep when we left. Didn't she come with us this time?"
The change in the old man's expression at that moment could hardly escape the attention of the Gu family.
When Gu Dahe was asked, he smiled and responded, "Uncle, they are all fine. They are still young, so we didn't bring them out this time.
They are at home with their grandfather. We are here in Beijing for business. Once we buy the farm and build the house, they will come.
Then, you old brothers will be able to meet each other again!"
When Mr. Gu heard that everything was fine, he was finally relieved and responded happily, "Good! That's good! That's good! I've been looking forward to this day and night, and even dreaming about it! Hahahaha."
"Uncle, are you in good health?" Gu Dahe asked with a smile.
"I'm in good health! Dafu takes good care of us." Old Man Gu said with satisfaction and pride.
It seems as if he is proud that his family can produce such outstanding descendants.
"Yes, we all heard it today, Dafu is indeed great!
We will be in the capital from now on, and in a few days we plan to buy a farm and settle down here.
We have been looking at one recently, and when the time comes, if any of our clansmen are willing, we can all move there.
We can build a big Gu Village in the capital, so we can look after each other." Gu Dahai leaned close to the clan leader's ear and told him his plan.
When the clan leader heard this, his eyes widened. He wanted to agree, but was afraid that Gu Dahai and the others would spend money.
Before he could refute, he heard Gu Dahai say, "We heard from Dafu today that Uncle Wu is ill and has been ill for many years?
We brought some medicine with us today, and my third brother has also learned some medical skills over the years. Why don’t we go and see Fifth Uncle first?
As for other matters, we will talk about them later after we have decided. What do you think, uncle?"
When Master Gu heard that he was going to treat his sixth brother, he nodded excitedly and said, "Okay, okay, then come with me!"
Gu Dahai and Gu Dahe each supported the clan leader and walked towards the cottage where the fifth uncle lived.
Master Gu Wu was lying in the house, but his ears were always paying attention to the excitement outside.
I wonder who is coming.
I have heard Gu Dafu's shouting a long time ago, but due to his poor health, he was lying in bed unable to move. At this moment, he was looking at the door curiously.
The clan leader, Gu Dahai and others knocked on the door and said, "Fifth brother, we are coming in."
Then he opened the door and said with a smile: "Old Five, guess who's here to see you!
These children are all good people. As soon as they heard that you were sick, they came to see you immediately."
Master Gu Wu looked at the door eagerly, and saw several people coming in.
But with the light against him, he couldn't see clearly.
I had to try to open my eyes wide, but because of the backlight, I kept blinking. I asked in confusion, "Who are you? I don't know you?"
"Hey, it's not your fault that you didn't recognize him. I almost didn't recognize him when I first saw him. The kid has changed a lot in recent years!" Old Man Gu still had a smile on his face and spoke patiently to his younger brother.
Master Gu Wu turned his head to look at his brother and asked in confusion, "Who are they?"
"These are Lao Liu's children! This is Dahai, Dahe, Dajiang, as well as his wife and children. They are all here to see you! Are you happy?"
"From Old Six's family?" Uncle Gu Wu asked loudly and calmly.
"Yes, from Lao Liu's family! These children will settle down in the capital. When the house is built, Lao Liu will come. Then we brothers will be able to meet each other."
"Where's Lao Liu?"
"Old Six will be here in a few months!"
"Uncle Wu, I am Dahai. In a few months, my father and his family will be here. I will bring him to see you as soon as possible."
When Master Gu Wu heard this, he thought about his own health and wondered if he could survive the winter.
After so many years, the brothers finally have a chance to meet each other, but my health is not doing well again.
As I thought about it, tears started to flow.
"I am already waiting for God's death. I don't know if I can ever see your father again. But if I can see you, I will die without regrets!"
Master Gu Wu said with great effort.
"Uncle Wu, don't worry. I have studied medicine a lot over the years. I will check you out later and I promise to make you healthy." Gu Dahai said.
Upon hearing this, Master Gu Wu grinned and laughed foolishly, "You kid, you are still the same as when you were little, you love to brag.
But Uncle Wu likes to hear this now."
"You are underestimating me! I not only like to talk, but I can also do it. If you don't believe me, just wait and see. Let me check your pulse first."
As Gu Dahai spoke, he sat down beside the bed, lifted a corner of the quilt, pulled out Gu Wuye's skinny hand, felt his pulse, and began to take his pulse.
During these years in the Military Medical Department, Gu Dahe has indeed learned a lot.
After continuous practice, I can now identify the patient’s basic problems by taking his pulse.
The rest will still be handed over to the smart butler for a full body check.
After all, this can be more accurate, and combined with surgery, it can also better relieve the patient's pain.
After Gu Dahai's diagnosis and treatment, Zhifeng was called in for a full-body examination.
It was discovered that the reason why Master Gu was like this was probably due to long-term malnutrition, mental stress during the famine, and lack of adequate rest and nutrition.
After settling down, I relaxed for a while, and those symptoms that had been accumulating for years suddenly broke out.
The body lacks various nutrients (vitamins), and aging causes decreased vision and intermittent deafness.
Lying down for so many years has caused a certain degree of muscle atrophy and weakness.
Because of muscle atrophy and weakness, lying down all year round further accelerates muscle atrophy, creating a vicious cycle.
And as I get older, I develop some age-related diseases.
The body is also gradually consumed by lying in bed all day without exercise, just like a rusty machine, which will naturally decay and break down if it is not used for many years.
If it were an ordinary doctor, he would definitely just recommend eating more nutritious food and slowly nourishing the patient until the last moment of life.
Doing so might extend your lifespan by a few years, but it would cost a lot of money.
