Chapter 18: Chapter 18 His Illness Seems Bad_1

Su Pan’er listened carefully in the firewood room, her brows furrowed. Could it be the quack doctor who treated Qin Yi?

As the door creaked open, Qin Yi stepped over the threshold and into the firewood room.

"Old Uncle Hu, thank you so much for all your trouble."

Following Qin Yi and Qin Yu into the room was an elderly man in his fifties with silvery hair. He glanced at Su Pan’er with his dimming eyes, a hint of unnoticed contempt flashing across his gaze, but his face was filled with a friendly and genial smile.

"Doctors have a parental heart, this is what Old Uncle Hu should do. This must be your new wife? She does look quite auspicious."

Su Pan’er lifted her eyelids and gave the old man an indifferent once-over, speaking in an extraordinarily flat tone.

"Who doesn’t know that the third son of the Qin family has contracted tuberculosis, and married the foolish girl from the Su family to bring good luck? This news has spread throughout the neighboring villages. Since you are his uncle, how could you not know about this? That’s rather peculiar!"

At her words, Uncle Hu’s face stiffened instantly, and after a stunned moment, he responded sarcastically, "Heh, you’re indeed from the Su family, your sharp tongue and sarcastic wit are truly first-class!"

Just a fool, yet she dares to act so recklessly!

She doesn’t respect him at all.

Qin Yi saw Uncle Hu quivering with anger and quickly helped him sit down, playing peacemaker.

"Uncle Hu, don’t take it to heart. Pan’er just moved in and isn’t familiar with the situation... Uncle Hu, please be patient."

Qin Yu on the side also quickly offered refreshments, giving Su Pan’er a significative look.

"Third sister-in-law may not know Uncle Hu since you’ve just moved in, but that’s understandable! This is Uncle Hu, the one who diagnosed Third Brother. His medical skills are famous throughout the neighbouring villages, top class. He could cure both minor and major diseases."

Hearing Qin Yu’s praises, Uncle Hu’s stiff facial expression gradually relaxed a bit. He shook his long tunic, lifting his head high; his nostrils pointed at Su Pan’er, his gaze sweeping over her like a venomous snake.

In a laid-back tone, he said, "Heh...what is my nephew saying, how could the old man have a quarrel with a little girl! Come, let’s see your disease, how is it now?"

As he spoke, he reached out to feel Qin Yi’s pulse.

Su Pan’er wanted to speak again, but was pulled back by Qin Yu: "Third Sister-in-law, Uncle Hu originally came to treat Wan’er, but he happened to meet Third Brother and is checking his pulse for free." He emphasized the word ’free’.

"Oh? Is that so?"

Su Pan’er squinted at Uncle Hu, who was taking the pulse, a cold sneer appeared in her eyes! In the end, she didn’t say anything more, she lazily yawned, and casually sat down on the bed edge.

He can’t even distinguish between tuberculosis and internal injuries that induce coughing up blood, yet he boasts about his medical skills?

The phrase "expert skills" is truly destroyed in this manner!

Uncle Hu was taking the pulse while squinting and thinking deeply. After a long while, he shook his head with a regretful face and sighed deeply.

"Your nephew seemed to have improved quite a bit under my secret ancestral prescription. But today, I can see that his condition has worsened; if this continues, I’m afraid it may spell trouble. Has anything happened these days...otherwise..."

This morning, Qin Yi was hit hard on the chest with a pole by Mrs. Qin-Li. At that time, nothing abnormal happened. But as the blood clot gradually formed at the site of the impact, it began to affect the blood flow around the lesion, which added fuel to his already severe disease.

Su Pan’er had already made that clear, but she couldn’t help sneering at this bogus doctor faking concern. Her eyes were filled with a mocking smirk.

Fuck! Is he trying to no have his cake and eat it too?

Doesn’t he know the patient’s condition only after checking the pulse, yet he insists on putting on a show here, isn’t that disgusting?

Qin Yu and Qin Yi looked at each other, both of them avoidant: "Uncle Hu, as for this disease..."

"This disease... I’m afraid it’s not good news."

Old Hu checked the pulse again, pondering for a longer time.

The delay was so long that Qin Yi’s heart sank further; his hope faded, and his face turned paler.

It was a while before Uncle Hu shook his head again and sighed, "He was already critically ill before, but now he has suffered additional injury. Given this, my previous treatment plan must be reduced a bit... Wait until this evening; I will prescribe a few more medications. You should get the medications brewed as soon as possible and give them to him. Perhaps, it will still have some effect..."

As he spoke, he picked up a paper and brush, and began prescribing.
