My delicate husband

Chapter 78 Zhang Xiaomo starts acupuncture

Guo Ge'er persisted in writing a storybook for two weeks but finally gave up. He originally thought it was easy, but later found that he was thinking too much. It would have been fine if he couldn't write a lot of words, but he discovered that thinking of a story and writing a story were completely different things.

After two days of discomfort in the room, Lan'an couldn't stand someone sighing in front of him every day, so he gave Bai Lu one or two taels of silver and asked him to take Ang'er out to play for a day.

As expected, children are children. After playing outside, they are full of energy and no longer think about writing storybooks.

What makes Lan An happy is that Zhang Xiaomo has been in good condition recently. He can already walk in the yard alone. Occasionally, he won't be too tired when he comes back from accompanying him to the academy to read.

When they returned to the village last week, Lan An took Zhang Xiaomo into the shallow jungle on the back mountain to catch rabbits. Of course, Brother Man and Brother Han were also there. Brother Guo also wanted to go in, but Lan An did not agree. However, he and Brother Lin still waited outside the forest.

The harvest was good. Three chubby rabbits and two pheasants were caught. Although they were all shot with blue gum, Zhang Xiaomo was quite excited as it was his first experience. It turned out that men still like excitement and pursue thrills in their bones.

"An An, you must take me hunting when you have the chance in the future."

"Okay, Brother Xiaomo, can you handle it?"

"It's okay, I think it's quite interesting."

"As long as your body can bear it, I will take you to experience it once a month."

"An An, you have to do what you say."

At noon that day, Lan An made a large plate of spicy rabbit and another large plate of peppery shredded chicken. In addition, he made corn and pork ribs soup and scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Zhang Xiaomo ate one more bowl of rice than usual. It had been a long time since Lan An had indulged him in eating chili peppers.

Brother Xie and his friends were also lucky enough to taste some and were amazed. It was a pity that Lan Euan didn't come here often, and he would never go to the back mountain often. It would be a pity not to be able to eat such delicious food often. Even the ones Lan Euan gave them were not enough to fill their stomachs. Each of them grabbed a chopstick and that was it.

Lan An asked Dr. Zhu to see him twice. Apart from changing the medicine twice, there was no other problem. Lan An was relieved. Now he asks Dr. Zhu to take his pulse once a week or so. Anyway, he has plenty of time, so he doesn't mind spending a little more money.

In a blink of an eye, it was time for the third check-up. If nothing unexpected happened, Zhang Xiaomo would start acupuncture today. Doctor Zhu repeatedly emphasized that acupuncture would be very painful at the beginning, so Lan Euan was unusually anxious and made dark food for the first time. Guo Ge'er drank the hot and sour pork rib soup for the first time, but he dared not say anything.

Lan Euan spit out the soup while drinking it. He looked at the two people opposite him who looked normal, and wondered if there was something wrong with his sense of taste.

"Don't you think this soup is unpalatable?"

"An An, don't worry, there's nothing wrong with today's examination. I can handle the acupuncture, too. You're too nervous."

Lan An had no appetite to eat, so he went to ask for Doctor Zhu. Lan An was still a little nervous when he asked for Doctor Zhu. Doctor Zhu also saw Lan An's nervousness and smiled to comfort him.

"Young Master, don't worry. Your husband is recovering well. Acupuncture won't be a big problem. I promise you that."

"Dr. Zhu, thank you so much. I know there won't be any problems, but I still can't help but worry."

"This is human nature, but young master, remember to relax in front of him and not be too anxious, so as not to burden him too much."

"I know, thank you."

The two of them quickly arrived at the yard, followed by the little medicine boy carrying a large box.

Lan An led Doctor Zhu into the room. Zhang Xiaomo sat obediently on the bed waiting. When he saw Lan An coming in, he smiled at her sweetly.

"Young Master is in good condition. Can I take your pulse now?"

"It's troublesome."

"Young Master has recovered well. He can now undergo acupuncture. As long as he endures the acupuncture, he has a good chance of recovery."

After taking the patient's pulse, Doctor Zhu took out a pen and began to write a prescription.

"Yuzhu, go back and get seven doses of this medicine."

"Yes, Master."

The little medicine boy put down the box and left.

"Sir, are you ready? I'm going to start acupuncture now."

"Okay, thank you, Doctor Zhu."

With Lan'an's help, Zhang Xiaomo took off her clothes and lay down on the bed obediently.

Lan An saw Doctor Zhu take out the silver needles. Lan An looked at the silver needles. Each one was very long, slender and smooth. The tip of the needle was as sharp as an awn, and the needle body was shining with a faint silver light.

Lan An couldn't imagine how painful it would be when each needle pierced Zhang Xiaomo's body. Lan An counted the number of silver needles and found that there were more than fifty of them.

"Do we need to use all these silver needles?"

"Yes, young master."

Lan An didn't say much. He saw Doctor Zhu gently insert the silver needle into Zhang Xiaomo's acupuncture point. The needle was inserted quickly, fiercely and accurately, and each needle insertion was accompanied by a slight stinging pain.

Lan An clearly felt that Zhang Xiaomo's forehead was covered with sweat, and his hands were grabbing the quilt more and more tightly.

Lan An was so heartbroken that tears were about to fall. He gritted his teeth and dared not make a sound. Soon, in less than a few minutes, all the silver needles were inserted into Zhang Xiaomo's body.

"Wait an hour, and it can be removed. It doesn't hurt much now, but it will get more painful later. You'll vomit a lot of blood when the needle is removed. Remember to eat more blood-enriching foods recently."

After the needles are removed, you must immediately take a medicinal bath. My apprentice will bring the medicine over shortly. Once the medicine arrives, you should immediately go to the kitchen to boil it."

"Okay, thank you, Doctor Zhu."

A short while later, the little medicine boy brought the medicine. Lan An asked the price, 800 wen per set. Lan An paid nearly nine taels of silver, including the cost of acupuncture and the consultation fee.

Without much delay, Lan An went to boil the medicine. He didn't want to stay in the room. He really didn't have the courage to see Zhang Xiaomo. He felt a pain in his heart like a needle. This time he found that he was so cowardly. Tears fell uncontrollably. If Zhang Xiaomo chose to give up, he would definitely support him. It was so painful, but he persisted for so long.

Lan Euan didn't add much spiritual spring water this time, as he was afraid that Zhang Xiaomo's body couldn't bear it.

He also did not forget to instruct his servants to go to the vegetable market to buy some pork liver. From now on, he would prepare blood-enriching food for Zhang Xiaomo every day.

Lan An also did not forget to enter the space and exchange special products again, such as some red beans and longans, and planned to cook some for Zhang Xiaomo every day.

"Ang'er, why are you in the kitchen instead of accompanying your brother?"

"Brother Guo, I'm scared. I want to cry when I see silver needles all over Brother Xiaomo's body. I feel so selfish for forcing him to endure this pain."

"Ang'er, don't cry. It will be heartbreaking for me if I see you later. So you can make the medicine in the kitchen. I'll be there to watch over you."

"Brother Guo, come and call me when you're done."

Lan Euan was not idle in the kitchen either. She made chicken soup with a lot of red dates and longans. The chicken soup was sweet and not only replenished the blood, but Zhang Xiaomo also liked to drink it.

He also cooked some red beans and blue gum. He planned to let Zhang Xiaomo eat this as the staple food recently, in addition to the brown sugar steamed buns.

The pork liver was bought back quickly, and Lan Euan chose to stir-fry it. Although he didn't like to eat it, he still tried his best to stir-fry it until it was tender and delicious.

Soon Zhang Xiaomo was about to have the needle removed. Guo Ge'er came to call Lan An. Lan An immediately ordered Bai Lu to prepare the medicinal bath water. Lan An accompanied Zhang Xiaomo to remove the needle and watched him soak in the medicinal bath for a quarter of an hour. Lan An forced him to see the pain that Zhang Xiaomo was suffering. He hated that he could not empathize with him.

Zhang Xiaomo was particularly weak today, and Lan An was really heartbroken. She gently picked him up and put him in the quilt. Lan An was about to go to the kitchen to make him something delicious, but Zhang Xiaomo grabbed Lan An with his pale hands.

"An An, do you dislike me? Don't you look so embarrassed and ugly?"

Zhang Xiaomo's voice came out low, a little weak, and it was not very clear to people.

"No, Brother Xiaomo, I'm just heartbroken. I'm heartbroken to death."

"An An, it hurts so much, it really hurts so much."

Zhang Xiaomo grabbed the blue eucalyptus with some force. This was the first time he had grabbed the blue eucalyptus with such force.

"I know, Brother Xiaomo, let's hold on a little longer, okay? There are only six more times left. Please, don't give up. I beg you, don't give up, don't abandon me."

"An An, kiss me, it hurts so much."

Lan Euan kissed Zhang Xiaomo's lips gently and devoutly. Now Zhang Xiaomo really looked like a broken doll.

"Go get some sleep, Brother Xiaomo, I'll call you for dinner later."

"An An stays with me, An An holds me while I sleep."

"Okay, I'll stay with you. I'll ask the kitchen to heat up the food and wait for you to wake up and eat it."

Lan An took off her clothes and got into bed. She held Zhang Xiaomo in her arms, gently patted Zhang Xiaomo's back, and coaxed him to sleep.

"An An, I want to hear a story."

"Okay, let me tell you the story of Jia Baoyu's journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures."

"Well, there was a place called Cloud Recesses. As long as the people lived there, they lived happily. If they made mistakes, they could hide there and not leave without being punished.

A child was born here, a boy named Jia Baoyu. He is very handsome, just like Brother Xiaomo, he is also very smart and kind..."

Lan'an's tone was gentle, more gentle than ever before, and Zhang Xiaomo slowly fell asleep. Today, Zhang Xiaomo slept uneasily, and Lan'an would pat his back every once in a while to comfort him.

In fact, he didn't sleep for long. Zhang Xiaomo woke up in less than an hour.

"An An, can you stay with me during acupuncture in the future?"

"Brother Xiaomo, I'm sorry. I will always be with you from now on."

"It's okay, I know An An is scared, but only when An An is by my side, I have the courage to endure all the pain."

I'm also afraid that I will give up, so An An you must stay with me. Zhang Xiaomo didn't say this in the end.

"I will take good care of you from now on and won't let you get sick again."

"Okay, I'll rely on An An to take care of me from now on."

"Get up and eat. I made something delicious for you."

"Okay, has An An prepared sweet soup for me?"

"There's sweet chicken soup. You'll like it."

Lan An slowly helped Zhang Xiaomo put on his clothes, then helped him to wash up. After they were done, she helped him to the hall to eat.

Lan'an quickly went to the kitchen to make some scrambled eggs with tomatoes and some stir-fried green vegetables, and then she and the servants brought the food to the table.

Red bean porridge is sweet with sugar in it, and Zhang Xiaomo loves it very much.

Zhang Xiaomo also likes chicken soup and eats a lot of the longan in it.

Tomatoes and eggs, as expected, he eats a lot of them.

It was pig liver. He refused to eat it after taking one bite. There was no choice but Lan An had to coax him into eating a lot.

After the meal, Zhang Xiaomo ate quite a lot. Lan An was afraid that he would feel uncomfortable in his stomach, so she accompanied him to help digest the food.

Guo Ge'er has become accustomed to his brother and Ang'er being so close to each other. He also has Xiao Hui to take walks with him, so he is not jealous at all.
