Chapter 41 Go to the provincial capital
The next day was Sunday. Ge Dongxu wrapped the thousand-year-old wild Polygonum multiflorum in a plastic bag and put it in his schoolbag. Then he took the urban and rural bus back to Songyang Town, the county town as usual in the afternoon.
However, after returning to Songyang Town, Ge Dongxu did not return to Cheng Lehao's house, but went straight to the train station. He bought a train ticket to the provincial capital Linzhou at the train station, and had a little supper near the train station. At about 8 o'clock in the evening, Ge Dongxu got on the train.
There are no high-speed trains or high-speed trains yet, just ordinary trains, which take a full twelve hours from Songyang Town to Linzhou City.
This means that Ge Dongxu will not arrive at Linzhou City, the provincial capital until 8 o'clock tomorrow morning.
As he grew up, Ge Dongxu went the farthest place in the county town of Songyang Town. He had never been to Ouzhou City, the administrative city of Changxi County, but this time he had to take the train alone to Linzhou City, the provincial capital. It was fake to say that Ge Dongxu was not nervous, after all, he was just a 16-year-old boy. Even speaking, this was his first time taking the train.
Fortunately, Ge Dongxu was too strong in his psychological quality, so he quickly calmed down his nervousness and began to look around the train.
There were not many passengers in the train at night, and the seats beside him were empty, with only a young man and a woman sitting opposite him whispering, hugging her, obviously in love.
Although the young man and woman were very calm, Ge Dongxu was not used to watching them hug them as if nothing had happened. In addition, there was no beautiful scenery outside at night, so he simply hugged his schoolbag containing the thousand-year-old wild Polygonum multiflorum.
Whenever the train arrives at a station, people will stop, and from time to time, and then the young man and woman opposite him get off the car and change another group of people, but Ge Dongxu didn't pay attention to it.
Anyway, they were all passers-by, and it was midnight again. In addition, Ge Dongxu was just a teenager, not a big beauty or a handsome guy, and no one was interested in chatting with him.
Ge Dongxu was also happy that his ears were purified. Even at midnight, he quietly circulated the true qi in his body to practice, but the effect was extremely poor. In the end, Ge Dongxu gave up and simply closed his eyes and went to sleep. After all, he had to go to Yongchuntang to sell medicine tomorrow, so he had to maintain his spirit and physical strength.
It was just because he was thinking about the thousand-year-old wild Polygonum multiflorum, and on the train, Ge Dongxu slept intermittently, and he lost all sleep at about five o'clock in the morning. Because at this time, it was the time for him to practice morning.
At about seven o'clock, the train stopped at the Kuaiji Railway Station next to Linzhou City.
At this time, there were obviously more passengers. At first, two women came up from Kuaiji City with a child in their arms, sat opposite Ge Dongxu, and then another man came up and sat next to him.
The two women opposite were young, about thirty years old, and the other was older, about 60 years old. The child was held in the arms of the young woman, about 1 year old. A child of this age should have been fat and cute. But the child in front of him was listless, thin, a little swollen, and looked sick. The young woman hugged the child tightly from time to time and kissed him on the forehead from time to time. The woman who was older than her coughed from time to time, and sometimes even had difficulty panting.
The man sitting next to Ge Dongxu seemed to be in his fifties, but his intuition told Ge Dongxu that he should be more than this age. The man had a thin face, was energetic, and looked very elegant, which made people easily feel a little kind.
"Ms., is the child in your arms sick?" After the man got into the car, he looked at the child in the young woman's arms from time to time. Finally, he seemed to be unable to help but ask.
"Yes! The child has been losing appetite recently and cannot sleep well. He keeps crying and is worried about me." The young woman nodded and said.
"This is how, if you don't mind, can you let me see it?" The man said. After saying that, he seemed to realize that it would be a bit abrupt. He then explained with a smile: "Don't misunderstand, I am a Chinese medicine doctor, this is my business card. It is very distressing for a child to be sick and cannot be delayed, so he recommended himself. Of course, I just want to see it. You must trust me and I can give you a treatment advice. Of course, if you are lucky, you will definitely not charge any money."
The young woman and the older woman had heard that the man wanted to help see the child, but her eyes became obviously alert. These days, lying and robbing children often happens, so we have to be wary of it. However, after listening to the man's explanation, the two of them looked obviously relaxed. The young woman smiled apologetically at the man and then took over the business card.
The young woman glanced on her business card and immediately said in surprise: "It turns out that you are an expert professor at Jiangnan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It's great. This time we went to the provincial capital to find famous Chinese medicine experts. You also know that Western medicine can see a cold or fever and other things immediately come into effect, but like my child, they have no choice. Then we went to find Chinese medicine doctors, but we found several Chinese medicine doctors in Kuaiji City, but they had no effect. So we couldn't think of looking for Chinese medicine experts in the provincial capital."
"So you are Professor Tang Yiyuan. I have heard of your name, but I didn't expect you to look so young." The old woman heard that the man in front of her was an expert professor at Jiangnan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Her eyes lit up and hurriedly leaned over to look at the business card in the young woman's hand. When she saw this, she immediately said excitedly.
"Haha, sister, you have been awarded. I think you coughed very badly. Is it because of asthma?" Professor Tang Yiyuan saw that the woman had heard of his name and said that he was young, and he couldn't help feeling a little satisfied, but he hurriedly said modestly.
"Yes, the weather has suddenly become cold recently. I'm worried that my grandson will not have a good sleep and will have an asthma attack again." The old woman replied.
"I'll help you see later." Tang Yiyuan said with a smile.
"Then, thank you so much! But I'm an old problem and it's hard to cure." The older woman said hurriedly gratefully.
"Asthma is difficult to cure, but it is not impossible to cure. Don't be discouraged. I'd better help your grandson first." Tang Yiyuan said.
"Thank you, Professor Tang, please." The two women hurriedly said gratefully.
"You're welcome." Tang Yiyuan said politely, and then asked the young woman to give the child to him, but the child started crying as soon as he left his mother's arms. Tang Yiyuan had no choice but to let the young woman hold him and let him see.
Tang Yiyuan first helped the child take his pulse, and then spent a lot of energy to look at the child's tongue coating. Because the child was still young, he did not ask him to stick out his tongue like an adult, but he struggled for a long time.
