Chapter 104: One hundred and three, cure disease

A brand-new sedan parked at the entrance of the alley, drawing a crowd of local residents. In this era, there weren’t many cars on the road, and a small sedan like this one was even rarer.

"This sedan is really pretty. I’d love to sit inside and see what it feels like."

"Wonder who the newcomer is. Yesterday they came with two cars, and today there’s another small sedan."

"I bet it must be some big shot."

"Look, here comes someone!" Someone spotted Luo Shu and a few others walking out of the alley and shouted excitedly.

Seeing Luo Shu and her party approaching, the driver hurriedly got out of the car and opened the rear doors for them.

"Little Divine Doctor, please get in first!" He Xiangyu said with a smile, inviting Luo Shu to get into the car first.

"Thank you, Aunt He!" Luo Shu smiled, nodded her head, and bent over to get into the car.

It wasn’t until the car drove off into the distance that the onlookers began to discuss again.

"That young girl just now is the one who moved in. I saw her yesterday."

"That woman called her ’Little Divine Doctor’. Could it be she’s a doctor?"

"Very likely. The way that woman treated her was so respectful; I guess that young girl’s medical skills must be really good."

"If that’s really the case, aren’t we, the residents of this alley, in for a treat?"

"Right, from now on, it will be convenient for us to seek medical treatment. We just need to find that young girl." The crowd chuckled and dispersed in all directions.

Only a skinny teenager covered in patches, standing still, looked towards where the car had disappeared. If you looked closely, you could see that his eyes were very bright and carried a sharpness.

The car stopped in the courtyard of the Mu family, and as soon as Luo Shu got out, she saw that the people of the Mu family were already waiting for her.

A square-faced middle-aged man came over with a smile and extended his hand to Luo Shu, "Little Divine Doctor, welcome to the Mu family!" He was Mu Youxin, He Xiangyu’s husband.

Luo Shu had cured Zhao Aishu’s legs and saved Zhou Chang, and he had heard about it. Although Luo Shu looked very young, he did not look down upon her in the slightest.

"Hello!" Luo Shu reached out and shook hands with Mu Youxin, her manner confident, as if she was already accustomed to such scenes.

"Let’s go inside, this way please!" Mu Youxin gestured for Luo Shu to follow him. His wife had been praising Luo Shu’s many virtues in his ear the past few days, but at the time, he hadn’t felt much about it.

Having met Luo Shu today, he realized his wife’s words were not exaggerated. He had seen countless people and had long since cultivated the skill of judging people. He felt that she was extraordinary from the first glance.

Members of the Mu family followed behind Mu Youxin and Luo Shu, heading inside. They too had heard of Luo Shu’s remarkable medical skills, but they were still taken aback when they saw her in person because Luo Shu was much younger than they had expected.

"My mother’s health has been failing to improve, her whole body swollen, especially her legs, as if they were filled with water. We’ve done a full body check and found nothing." Mu Youxin said while walking, explaining Old Madam Mu’s condition to Luo Shu.

Luo Shu nodded slightly, "Lead me to her, please." Without seeing the patient, she couldn’t be certain of the diagnosis.

Mu Youxin nodded and led Luo Shu to Old Madam Mu’s room on the second floor.

Upon entering the room, Luo Shu saw an elderly woman with graying hair lying on the bed, her complexion pale and haggard, with her eyes closed.

Luo Shu asked someone to pull Old Madam Mu’s hand out from under the blanket, and she reached out to place her hand on the old lady’s thin wrist.

Everyone watched in silence, waiting for her diagnosis. They were actually quite hopeful about Luo Shu.

Luo Shu withdrew her hand and looked at the crowd, "Old Madam Mu is suffering from nephrogenic edema, caused by severe proteinuria leading to low plasma protein levels."

"What does that mean?" The people looked puzzled at Luo Shu. Although it sounded like she explained it clearly, they didn’t understand all that protein stuff.

"Little Divine Doctor, can it be treated?" Mu Youxin asked. This was his most pressing concern.

"It can be treated." Luo Shu nodded, "Old Madam Mu has a problem with her kidneys. The key is to repair the damaged renal glomerular cells, which is the fundamental way to eliminate the edema. However, a full recovery will still take some time."

"Little Divine Doctor, we’re counting on you." Although they didn’t understand what Luo Shu was saying, as long as she could cure the old lady’s illness, that was all that mattered to them.

"Lift her blanket; I will perform acupuncture first." Luo Shu opened her small bag, took out a needle pouch containing Silver Needle, and looked at Mu Wan on the side, "Mu Wan, please disinfect Silver Needle with alcohol."

"Sure!" Mu Wan excitedly took the Silver Needle, carefully disinfecting it with alcohol swabs.

Luo Shu sat by the bedside, began massaging an acupoint on Old Madam Mu’s arm, and waited for Mu Wan to hand her the Silver Needle. She then took out a seven-inch-long needle, swiftly inserting it into the acupoint she had just massaged.

Her fingers gently shook the Silver Needle, sometimes going deep, sometimes shallow, occasionally twisting it.

Once the Silver Needle was almost completely inserted into the arm, Luo Shu took another Silver Needle. This time, without massage, she quickly pierced it into an acupoint above Old Madam Mu’s navel, then proceeded to her legs.
