Arriving at the backyard of the county government office, Qu Yuanxun first went to pay his respects to Old Madam Qu.

Old Madam Qu sat on the high hall, looking coldly at her son standing below.

“Mother, Madam Lin cured a person with tongue stiffness some time ago, and even Wan Weiran recognized her medical skills.

Today, I asked her to come and see me. Maybe she can cure your illness."

Madam Qu had no expression on her face, and one could only discern some of her emotions from her voice.

"If you are truly filial, why would I do this? Yuanxun, just listen to your mother for once.

Miss Ye from Minzhou is twenty years old. Her mother and I are old acquaintances. Her maternal grandfather's family is the Minister of Personnel in the capital.

You and I are quite compatible. I will invite them to visit Wenzhu County in a few days, and let you spend some time with Miss Ye. Maybe you will hit it off."

Here she comes again. Qu Yuanxun has refused many times, but Mrs. Qu still succeeds every time.

"Mother, I really don't want to get married. My destiny is weak, and I am destined to be a lonely widow."

"nonsense!"

Mrs. Qu slammed the table. She was already angry, but it was not visible because of her facial paralysis.

"It's been eight years, son. It's time for you to let it go. If you don't agree to me, there's no need to treat this face.

A hundred years from now, when I am in the underworld and the ancestors of the Qu family question me, I won’t feel wronged and embarrassed.”

This is what Mrs. Qu cares about most. Now she just wants Qu Yuanxun to have someone to accompany him.

There is no one left in the Qu family. Parents love their children with long-term plans. How could she bear to let her son live his life alone?

Qu Yuanxun had no choice but to nod and agree.

"Okay, I promised my mother that we will cure the disease first."

Only after Qu Yuanxun gave in did Mrs. Qu nod. She didn't want to make things difficult for Lin Ting and Wan Weiran.

But only this method can force his son to submit.

At the door, Qu Yuanxun came out and invited Wan Weiran and Lin Ting in. This was the first time Lin Ting met Madam Qu.

He looks very peaceful, but his eyes and face cannot express any corresponding expressions.

"Madam Qu, my name is Lin Ting. Nice to meet you. These are the pastries made by our Tea House. I'm really not that good."

Madam Qu has all the good things. She is in Wenzhu County and has access to the best resources.

Lin Ting thought that giving them cakes was more practical than giving them expensive gifts.

Xiaoju took the cake from Lin Ting's hand, and Madam Qu said, "Mrs. Lin, you are so polite. You invited me to treat you, and you also brought a gift."

Although she showed no expression, Lin could tell that Madam Qu didn't dislike her.

"Aunt, let Madam Lin examine you first. Maybe she can really cure your illness."

Madam Qu: "Alright, thanks to Madam Lin."

Mrs. Qu did not question Lin Ting. She did not understand others, so she would not make random guesses.

Moreover, Wan Weiran is very young and has learned good medical skills since childhood.

"Madam Qu, let me take your pulse first!" Lin Ting also went straight to the point.

A weak pulse is caused by taking too many medicines. It is not a big problem. As time goes by, these medicines will be metabolized.

After taking the pulse, Lin Ting stretched out her hands and checked Madam Qu's face, which was a little swollen. On the way, Wan Weiran told her about Madam Qu's condition, saying it was muscular dystrophy, also known as facial paralysis.

After Lin Ting personally examined the case, he found that this was not the case. Mrs. Qu suffered from facial paralysis caused by a facial stroke, and this could only be treated with acupuncture, and only by someone skilled in the technique.

“This is a bit difficult!”

This one sentence made Wan Weiran and Qu Yuanxun worried. If Lin Ting couldn't cure her, then maybe no one could cure Madam Qu's illness.

Both of them were a little anxious, but only Old Lady Qu treated it with a normal attitude. After being treated for so long, she never thought that she would get better.

"Mrs. Lin, what are you saying? My mother, could it be..."

"Master Lin, is there nothing even you can do?"

Lin Ting: "No, this is a bit difficult to treat, only I can treat it."

Qu Yuanxun breathed a sigh of relief, but Wan Weiran felt a little frustrated.

The last time we treated the tongue disease, Lin Ting did it once and then handed it over to him to treat. That time he wrote the disease into the medical record and gained more experience.

But this time, Mrs. Qu heard what Lin Ting said and knew that he could not help at all.

"Madam Lin, since you are so confident, I'll leave my mother to you."

Lin Ting is thin and handsome, but he has a convincing strength.

Mrs. Qu no longer has any feeling on her face, but if she sees a needle for the first time, she might resist.

"Madam Qu, if you feel any pain while I'm treating you, don't move. There are so many acupuncture points on your face, and if you move, the needles will go astray."

Madam Qu said "hmm"!

Lin Ting let her lie on the beauty bed, and Wan Weiran followed behind Lin Ting with a rogue smile on his face.

"Master Lin, I want to learn from you!"

"Then please help me disinfect the silver needle."

Qu Yuanxun and Xiaoju stood aside, watching from a distance, not daring to get close.

Madam Qu's entire left face was paralyzed, and the right side of her face also suffered a mild stroke.

Lin Ting stretched out his hand in front of Wan Weiran: "One inch needle."

Wan Weiran took the silver needle into Lin Ting's hand. In the first step, Lin Ting did not use it on Madam Qu's face.

Instead, first insert the needle into the Hegu point on the right hand. This point is located at the base of the thumb. Hegu is where the qi and meridians are located, and is the original point of all yang meridians.

Except for Chengjiang on the lower lip, which is the Ren meridian, all other acupoints on the face, including the entire head, are yang meridians.

According to traditional Chinese medicine, a disease on the left should be treated on the right, but Mrs. Qu had facial paralysis on both sides due to a stroke, so acupuncture was performed on the Hegu points on both hands.

When it came to her face, Lin Ting first gave acupuncture to her healthier right side of the face. Wan Weiran was watching, trying to remember Lin Ting's technique and the acupuncture points.

"Wan Weiran, this needle I use is called a penetrating needle. It's the most difficult needle in the entire treatment process. If you're not skilled, it can cause the patient great pain."

As Lin Ting spoke, she gave Madam Qu an acupuncture injection with her hands. This time, she used a three-inch long needle.

"To treat facial paralysis caused by a stroke, you need to penetrate from Dicang to Jiache. Dicang is next to the corner of the mouth. Use a three-inch silver needle to penetrate from this point to Jiache, one inch below the earlobe.

The needle must penetrate accurately and be raised to the skin, corresponding to the position of the cheek-cartilage point. The needle tip must not penetrate the skin from the cheek-cartilage point."

During the lecture, Lin Ting told him that these two acupoints could cure stroke, but he did not expect that such advanced techniques were required.

He is still far from being able to achieve such a technique.

Lin Ting is younger than him, but he has mastered such amazing medical skills. He really feels ashamed of himself.

"After two or three injections, the patient will gradually stop drooling."

After giving acupuncture to both sides of Mrs. Qu's face, Lin Ting also gave acupuncture to the Ren Zhong and Cheng Jiang points.

These two injections serve to stabilize the face and prevent the patient's face from tilting to one side.
