Reborn as a Superpower Girl in the 80s-Chapter 1196: Can It Be Treated?

When the two arrived, the child was lying on the bed with a pale face, looking as small as a seven- or eight-year-old despite being in his teens.

Wei Jun introduced them as he came in: "Sister-in-law, this is Xia Shanmei, my wife, and the boy on the bed is my son, Wei Tianyou."

He then turned to his wife and said, "This is Sister-in-law Luo Qiao."

And to his son, he said, "Tianyou, call her Auntie."

The child opened his mouth towards Luo Qiao: "Hello, Auntie."

Xia Shanmei also greeted, "Sister-in-law."

Luo Qiao smiled lightly, "Hello, everyone."

After taking the child’s pulse and performing a few simple checks, she spoke softly based on her previous experience in the hospital: "The tonsils have been inflamed repeatedly without receiving proper attention. The nasal mucosa is prone to congestion and swelling, easily leading to nosebleeds.

Moreover, I suspect the child’s blood clotting function is impaired, which can easily trigger nosebleeds too. Most importantly, there’s a blood stasis on his head that needs to be cleared."

Xia Shanmei’s eyes were filled with deep guilt: "Can it be treated?"

Luo Qiao replied, "I’ll prepare some medicine for you to give him to drink for a few days. In addition, he needs to supplement with vitamins, which means eating more fresh fruits and vegetables to boost his body’s resistance."

Wei Jun looked at his child, "So, you’re saying it’s not a serious problem, right?"

Luo Qiao smiled at the child, "It’s not a big issue. I’ll give him acupuncture today, and I’ll come over once a week for his acupuncture treatment. Along with the Chinese medicine I’ll prepare, he should recover gradually with proper care."

In reality, Luo Qiao didn’t tell them the whole truth; the child must have suffered a lot. There was certainly a blow to the head, causing the blood stasis, and he also had severe malnutrition. She figured that good care over time could reverse these issues, so there was no need to say everything and upset both the child and the adults.

Luo Qiao took out a Silver Needle from her bag and asked Wei Jun to prepare some alcohol, and looked at the child: "Auntie is going to give you acupuncture. It won’t hurt much. Are you scared?"

The boy, now named Wei Tianyou, blinked his large eyes: "Will I get better with acupuncture?"

Luo Qiao nodded, "You’ll need to undergo treatment for a while and then take Chinese medicine. After some time, you should be cured. Can you endure it?"

Determination filled the child’s eyes, "I can. As long as it can cure me, I’m not afraid of pain."

Luo Qiao reached out and touched his head, "What do you want to do once you’re better?"

A glint of longing flashed in Wei Tianyou’s eyes, "I want to go back to school and study properly."

Luo Qiao smiled, "That’s good to hear. I believe by the time school reopens, you’ll be able to attend."

Hearing Luo Qiao’s words, a glimmer of hope appeared in the child’s eyes, "Really? I haven’t been to school for a long time, and I miss my classmates a lot."

Wei Jun brought the alcohol. Luo Qiao disinfected the Silver Needle, told Xia Shanmei to remove the child’s shirt, and had her hold him steady.

Luo Qiao started with a few needles in the head, then placed more in the chest and back, chatting with Wei Tianyou all the while. It wasn’t long before she finished administering the needles.

Luo Qiao told Xia Shanmei, "The needles should not be removed for half an hour, and don’t let him lie down; make sure you hold him up."

Xia Shanmei, somewhat nervous, nodded, "Okay."

Luo Qiao did this partly for the sake of the pitiful mother and son. Before Wei Tianyou got sick, he rarely visited his maternal grandfather’s home, and hence, was not close to his former aunt and now biological mother. After the truth came out and they were kicked out, they started living together.

For a teenager who just learned the truth, it was inevitable that he would feel wronged. Therefore, his interaction with his biological mother, Xia Shanmei, was awkward.

Consider this an opportunity for the mother and son to bond.

Wei Jun and Luo Qiao walked out to the courtyard, discussing the current situation at Yipin.

Luo Qiao looked at Wei Jun, "You take care of the already developed area first, and let Qiao Hua handle the new development area. Once the child is a bit better, you two can discuss and redistribute the areas again."

Wei Jun nodded, "Sister-in-law, thank you."

Luo Qiao glanced towards the door, "No need to be so formal. It’s about time to remove the needles."

By the time they entered the hall, Wei Tianyou was wiping sweat off Xia Shanmei.

Upon seeing them enter, Wei Tianyou hurriedly hid the towel in embarrassment.

Luo Qiao spoke while removing the needles, "That’s right, this is what it means to be a loving family. Keep it up, young man."

After removing the needles, Luo Qiao instructed Wei Jun, "Don’t give the boy a bath on the day of acupuncture."

Wei Jun nodded, "And the Chinese medicine he has to drink, what should we do there?"

Luo Qiao was packing up the Silver Needle kit as she spoke, "Come and get it tomorrow afternoon. I’ll have someone prepare it for you."

She then turned to Xia Shanmei, "Enhance the child’s nutrition. Go ahead and eat well; Wei Jun’s salary is enough to support you both."

Xia Shanmei nodded gratefully, "Thank you, sister-in-law."

Luo Qiao packed up her things, "Alright, I’ll be going now. In the future, have Tianyou go out to get some sun around 10 in the morning and after 4 in the afternoon."

To them, it was just a simple needle treatment, but Luo Qiao used her Special Ability while administering the needles. She believed that within three months, the child should be able to bounce around lively, and after a few more months of recuperation, he could find a school and start attending classes by the next semester.
