Huo Mien's hand paused in the middle of stirring the coffee.
Then, she shook her head …
"Well … I heard from my mom that there's an old Chinese medicine doctor on an old street near my house. He seems to be quite good. There were a few young couples who went to see him, and then they really had a baby. I think Chinese medicine won't hurt people anyway. Wouldn't it be better if they got better? Anyway, my mom said that he's quite amazing. Since you're free today, do you want to go see him? "
If it was every other time, Huo Mien would have rejected her outright. However, this time, she only said one word, "Okay."
Then, Huo Mien drove Zhu Lingling to the street where she lived.
It was an old industrial area. Since Zhu Lingling grew up here, she was used to living here and was too lazy to move to the city center.
Finally, she led Huo Mien to a small courtyard in an alley.
As soon as they entered, a big stupid dog barked …
"What are you doing here?" An old lady with an unknown accent came out of the courtyard.
"Hello, we're looking for Mr. Wang." Zhu Lingling vaguely remembered that the family's surname was Wang.
"Oh, are you here to see a doctor?"
"Yes." Huo Mien nodded.
"Come in, it's 20 yuan for registration," the old lady said as she reached out her hand.
Before Huo Mien could open her bag, Zhu Lingling immediately took out 20 yuan from her pocket and handed it over.
Then the old lady led them all the way inside until they came to a small house.
An old man in his eighties was sitting there with a pair of reading glasses and arranging herbs.
There was a strong smell of Chinese medicine in the house.
"Old man, we have a patient."
"Oh, got it." The old man wasn't deaf at all. After hearing that, he stopped what he was doing.
He turned around and walked over with slow steps.
"Which one of you wants to see a doctor?"
"Me," Huo Mien replied.
"What do you want to see?" the old man asked seriously.
"Um … I just want to check your pulse to see if you have any diseases." Zhu Lingling didn't want Huo Mien to say it himself. After all, she couldn't say that she was infertile. It would be awkward.
The old man nodded and gestured for Huo Mien to sit on the chair.
Then, he placed a wrist pad under Huo Mien's right wrist and began to take his pulse.
The technique looked quite professional. In fact, Huo Mien did not believe in Chinese medicine because he studied Western medicine.
It was just that there were very few traditional Chinese medicine practitioners nowadays. Most of those who graduated from medical school only knew a little about it. Then, they pretended to be Godly Doctors and randomly prescribed medicine. It was true that Chinese medicine couldn't kill people, but if it didn't treat the illness, it couldn't be cured.
If it wasn't for Zhu Lingling, she really didn't plan to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. Her mother had mentioned it before, but she didn't respond.
"Doctor, how is it? What's wrong with my friend?" Zhu Lingling asked anxiously.
The old man slowly retracted his hand and glanced at Huo Mien. "She's lacking in both blood and qi. She's suffering from cold and dampness. Her womb is cold … She has a cold constitution. She probably has menstrual cramps, right?"
"Yes." Huo Mien nodded obediently.
"Take care of your body. Otherwise, it won't be easy for you to have a baby in the future," the old man sighed.
Huo Mien and Zhu Lingling looked at each other …
"Does she need to take some medicine?" Zhu Lingling asked.
"If you trust me, I'll get some for you. If you don't, you can go to the pharmacy and buy some medicine to warm up the womb. It's best if you take it for three months," the old man advised.
"Then I'll get some from you." Huo Mien felt that the old man was right. From a Western medicine perspective, he knew that he had a cold womb.
Then, he got more than two hundred yuan worth of Chinese medicine from the old man.
As soon as Huo Mien got home, she started boiling Chinese medicine in a jar. The entire kitchen was filled with the smell of Chinese medicine.
He had to take one packet of medicine three times a day. The smell was very strong and unpleasant.
Most of the medicine was made from famous Chinese herbs. Anyone who had eaten Chinese herbs before knew how sour it was.
After Huo Mien drank it all in one gulp for the first time, her stomach churned. Then, she couldn't help but rush to the bathroom to vomit.
When Qin Chu came back, Huo Mien was still vomiting. She forced herself to drink it, but she couldn't help but vomit. Her entire mouth was filled with the weird taste of Chinese herbs …
"Honey … what's wrong?" Qin Chu frowned slightly.
