Chapter 559: Chapter 558: Mass Release 38

It wasn’t long before Doctor Cui arrived. Jin Nanxi hurriedly pulled Doctor Cui and ran upstairs. As Doctor Cui was older, he couldn’t withstand such hustle and bustled, saying, "Hey, slow down a bit."

It was then that Jin Nanxi realized he had run too fast in his anxiety and apologized, "Doctor Cui, I’m sorry, I was too anxious."

"It’s all right, it’s all right."

Doctor Cui didn’t blame Jin Nanxi. The family members of patients were all like this, rushing around in a panic over major and minor illnesses as if they were about to die.

When Doctor Cui arrived in the room, Xu Niannian had fallen asleep again. Since Jin Nanxi had entered the room before and knew that Xu Niannian slept in pajamas and pants, he saw no need for modesty.

"Doctor Cui, please take a look at my niece-in-law. Is she having a fever?"

Doctor Cui first took Xu Niannian’s pulse, then pried open her eyelids to look for a while.

He eventually concluded that she was just running a high fever.

But the temperature was a bit high, and Jin Nanxi asked Doctor Cui anxiously, "Doctor Cui, what should we do? My Niannian is pregnant, carrying twins, and can’t take those hospital medications. What do you suggest?"

"Don’t panic." Doctor Cui was very calm, regardless of how nervous Jin Nanxi was, as he leisurely took out his tools from the medical box.

Silver needles.

Seeing the row of glistening silver needles, Jin Nanxi unconsciously shrank his neck, "Doctor Cui, are you going to use the silver needles on Niannian?"

Doctor Cui gave a hum of affirmation, and Jin Nanxi, worried, asked, "Will this bring down the fever?"

"It won’t; she’ll die," Doctor Cui answered her.

Jin Nanxi was startled and looked at Doctor Cui, "Doctor Cui, didn’t you say it’s nothing serious? How can it now be lethal?"

Doctor Cui was annoyed and curled his lip, "If you really want her to die, then just keep standing in the way."

Really, if it were useless, why would he take it out? Was he just showing off his collection of silver needles?

Doctor Cui always hated when people mistrusted his medical skills.

Jin Nanxi was aware of this too and immediately apologized, "I’m sorry, Doctor Cui."

Doctor Cui snorted in response, "You’re still in the way."

"Excuse me, excuse me, I’ll move," Jin Nanxi quickly stepped aside.

Doctor Cui used the silver needle to insert several needles into acupuncture points on Xu Niannian’s body.

Jin Nanxi saw silver needles on both sides of Xu Niannian’s head.

It looked painful to her.

After about ten minutes, Xu Niannian’s flushed face not only didn’t become less red, but it actually became redder, with her hands and palms starting to redden as well.

Jin Nanxi was so worried it was unbearable, feeling that the situation was getting worse.

But she didn’t dare to keep asking Doctor Cui, afraid of being scolded; Doctor Cui wasn’t as easy to talk to as Old Wu.

She couldn’t help but reach out to touch Xu Niannian’s head. Thankfully, although her face looked very red, the temperature was not as high as before, just that her forehead was covered with a bit more cold sweat.

After a while, Xu Niannian mumbled something in her delirium. Jin Nanxi leaned in to listen and heard her murmur.

"Jin Yu..."

Jin Nanxi immediately sat up straight, covering her mouth to laugh, her great-nephew was not doing too badly, totally capturing his little wife’s heart.

She was sick and still didn’t forget to think about him. It couldn’t be lovesickness causing the fever, could it? Jin Nanxi thought mischievously.

After laughing, Jin Nanxi felt again that Xu Niannian was pitiable, with her big belly, doing anything was inconvenient, especially with her husband not by her side.

Even if their family helped care for her, it wasn’t as convenient as having a man around. After all, she was alone in her room at night; if anything happened, they wouldn’t know and couldn’t look after her.

Like today, if Nanny Zhao hadn’t mentioned that Xu Niannian hadn’t gotten up for breakfast, she wouldn’t have come over to wake her. She thought Xu Niannian was just being sleepy from her pregnancy, but it turned out to be a high fever.

Such a fever can be a minor illness or a serious one.

It’s called a minor illness because it can usually be cured with medical attention.

It’s called a serious illness because if not treated in time, there’s a chance it could burn someone’s brain out.

Jin Nanxi had been through it herself, and so had Ye Qin; only Wu Lan was slightly better off. She went with her big brother to the base, where people looked after her.

"Ah..." The more she had experienced, the more Jin Nanxi felt for Xu Niannian, whose delicate little face had just turned bright red and was now shockingly pale.

She looked increasingly pitiable.

"What sin is this, marrying such a man, really," Jin Nanxi complained, but halfway through, she suddenly realized she was complaining about her dear great-nephew.

Uh, my mistake, my mistake, she said nothing.

After a while, Jin Nanxi saw Doctor Cui applying a brown liquid medicine to her forehead and asked puzzledly, "Doctor Cui, what is this for?"

Doctor Cui: "Poisoning her."

Jin Nanxi: "..."

Um, Doctor Cui is really fierce.

Do older people all like this?

Jin Nanxi wondered with a frown.

Her own father was also quite strange, getting odder with age.

But he wasn’t as proud as Doctor Cui.

After a while, Doctor Cui slowly removed the needles and began to tidy up his medical box.

"Doctor, is she alright now?"

When Jin Nanxi asked this, she was especially afraid that Doctor Cui would reply with a "she’s dead."

After all, Doctor Cui’s mouth was indeed venomous.
