Chapter 98 Checking Teeth
Du Ruo went out today and happened to run into Li Yuanyuan when he returned. So when Du Ruo delivered the message, Li Yuanyuan was already in the courtyard. By the time Qin Suiyou put down his notebook and came over, Li Yuanyuan had already started drinking tea.
"Didn't Xiaodong come with you?"
Li Yuanyuan put down her teacup, straightened her posture, and replied with her eyes slightly lowered, "That child is too afraid to move because of the severe toothache. He had Master Ma come directly to me to get the medicine. He should be here in a little while."
Qin Suiyou nodded and sat down.
"Let me see the prescription."
Li Yuanyuan took out a piece of paper from her sleeve pocket, unfolded it, and handed it over with both hands.
Qin Suiyou took it in his hand and glanced at it briefly, and then he had a general idea of what was going on.
"Your prescription is fine; it's very effective for treating common dental problems and pain."
"As you said, it can only be the ordinary kind. I looked at Xiaodong's case. He suddenly had a tooth that was in a bad position growing in, and the root of the tooth was red, swollen and suppurating. The medicine I prescribed only treated the symptoms and not the root cause. I have seen similar patients before. After Master Ma came to see me today, I thought I would come and ask you if you have a better way."
Qin Suiyou first turned his head and said something to Beitang Yan. After Beitang nodded and left, he turned back to Li Yuanyuan and said, "Since it is growing in the wrong place, then pulling it out is the best choice."
"What? You want to pull it out!"
Hearing a gasp from outside the door, Qin Suiyou and Li Yuanyuan looked over and saw Chen Xiaodong standing there, covering half of her face in a daze, with Uncle Ma behind her looking apologetic.
"Come in first."
Qin Suiyou let the master and apprentice outside the door come in first. Chen Xiaodong was still immersed in the panic that his teeth were about to be lost. It was only when Uncle Ma patted his arm that he came to his senses.
After the two entered, Beitang Yan carried a wooden box over. Qin Suiyou asked him to place it on the table next to him and then gestured for Chen Xiaodong to come to him.
Upon suddenly seeing Beitang Yan, who was making no attempt to conceal his true intentions, Uncle Ma and Chen Xiaodong stiffened and instinctively reached out to stand up and bow.
Before they could make a move, Beitang Yan dodged away, saying, "Don't waste time, let's get down to business first."
The conversation about the fighter jet hadn't ended yet, and Beitang Yan was still preoccupied with it. However, he knew that his wife took matters of the heart very seriously, and he couldn't back out. So he could only tell others not to waste his wife's time.
Uncle Ma sat back down as instructed, while Chen Xiaodong walked over to Qin Suiyou.
Because there was no treatment table, Chen Xiaodong had nowhere to lie down. He was already quite tall, and it was difficult for Qin Suiyou to examine him while he was standing in front of him. After looking around, Qin Suiyou pointed to a corner with a few stools and told Chen Xiaodong, "Get a stool and sit down."
Because Li Yuanyuan was giving medicine, Chen Xiaodong's toothache had been relieved a lot after he had already taken the medicine. Hearing this, he prepared to get a stool, but Lan Ya, who was listening nearby, beat him to it.
After putting down the stool, Lan Ya passed by Li Yuanyuan on her way back to her seat. They unexpectedly made eye contact. One remained calm and composed, while the other seemed inexplicably embarrassed.
After Chen Xiaodong sat down, Qin Suiyou took out a small flashlight and a tongue depressor from the wooden box, and then asked Chen Xiaodong to open his mouth.
After a careful inspection, Qin Suiyou put down the small flashlight and tongue depressor.
"Your wisdom teeth are coming in, but you haven't paid attention to it."
Chen Xiaodong nodded with an awkward smile.
"It only hurt occasionally before. I asked my master to take a look and he saw that it was damaged or something, so I didn't pay attention to it. Who knew that it would suddenly hurt so badly today?"
Qin Suiyou took out a syringe from the wooden box and attached a needle to it, saying, "Actually, if there are no other adverse reactions when your wisdom teeth come in, you don't need to worry about it. The slight pain was almost gone after using the medicine prescribed by Mr. Li. But you love to eat sweets, especially today when you stuffed your mouth full of them, which caused inflammation. Fortunately, it didn't cause any cavities, otherwise you would have been in pain during the treatment."
Upon hearing Qin Suiyou mention candy, Chen Xiaodong's expression became unnatural. He glanced at his master without realizing it, and seeing his cold gaze and the words "I'll deal with you later," he immediately lowered his head, his face ashen.
After Qin Suiyou prepared the tools, he asked Chen Xiaodong to roll up his sleeves and raise his hands.
“Your situation is considered good. Many people grow two or even four at once and need to have them removed. However, we need to do a blood test before removing them, and the results won’t be available until tomorrow. You can use the next few days to prepare yourself mentally.”
Chen Xiaodong didn't seem to hear what was said after that. He just stared at the strange, transparent tube that Qin Suiyou had stuck in his arm and that was already sucking his blood, his face full of surprise.
Once the blood volume was sufficient, Qin Suiyou deftly removed the needle and pressed a small piece of cotton onto the puncture site.
"You can press it yourself, but you don't need to use too much force. Count to sixty in your mind and when you see that there is no more bleeding, you can put it down."
Chen Xiaodong pressed the cotton as instructed, while Li Yuanyuan, who was closest to the side besides Beitang Yan, watched the whole process. Thinking about the blood test Qin Suiyou mentioned, she asked a question based on her own understanding.
"Is a blood test required because not everyone can have a tooth extracted?"
After having Beitang Yan help him tidy up, Qin Suiyou replied, "That's right. During the tooth extraction process, it is inevitable that a wound will be created and blood will be drawn. Some people with blood diseases cannot have their teeth extracted. For example, people with low blood clotting ability may die from massive bleeding if they have just one tooth extracted because they cannot stop the bleeding."
"I see. So, what are the specific conditions that people with the blood disorder you mentioned, where the blood clotting factor is too low?"
Qin Suiyou didn't answer immediately. He asked Chen Xiaodong to turn his right cheek, where the wisdom tooth had grown, toward him, and then gently pressed his index and middle fingers on a spot above Chen's jaw. He said, "Today's teaching time is over. I'll compile some theoretical books for you tomorrow so you can study them at your own pace."
Li Yuanyuan didn't have much experience in this area, and thinking that what Qin Suiyou had just said was enough for her to think about, she didn't ask any more questions. She was already quite happy at the thought of having a new book to read tomorrow.
After Qin Suiyou used some special methods to confirm that there were no other lesions inside Chen Xiaodong's teeth, he said, "Alright, just follow Mr. Li's doctor's instructions and take the medicine for one day. Come back after breakfast tomorrow."
"Thank you, Masakazu."
Qin Suiyou's gentle fingertips had already lowered, but Chen Xiaodong's face began to flush. Seeing this, she immediately glared sharply at Beitang Yan, who had been observing her.
Feeling a strange chill on his head, Chen Xiaodong realized something and cautiously looked up. He immediately felt a chill run down his spine and looked away. His face stopped blushing, and he quickly moved further away with a serious expression.
Qin Suiyou remained calm, seemingly unaware of what had happened around him. When Uncle Ma asked how he should repay him, he casually replied, "Xiao Dong often drives for me. I owe him a lot for being able to leave the manor safely. Consider this a small bribe."
After Uncle Ma thanked Chen Xiaodong again, the two returned home.
