"Ah... you, why do you ask this?" Although Wang Xiaoqiang asked the question with a serious expression, the topic was too sensitive, and the blush that had just faded from Xu Xiaoya's face returned. Her expression and words were very unnatural.
"Don't overthink it. Just treat me as a doctor, and let's discuss this condition..." Wang Xiaoqiang said seriously.
Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang's serious demeanor, Xu Xiaoya couldn't help but laugh inwardly. "You're the manager of a chicken farm. Why not discuss something else, but you have to talk about gynecological diseases?!"
If Wang Xiaoqiang were a doctor, the two of them could discuss the matter more calmly. But Wang Xiaoqiang wasn't a doctor. They were both unmarried young people, and their relationship was somewhat delicate. How could Xu Xiaoya bring herself to speak?
Xu Xiaoya avoided Wang Xiaoqiang's gaze and said, "Is there someone in your family who has this condition? If so, why don't you bring her over, and I'll take a look. I specialized in gynecology when I was in medical school..."
Wang Xiaoqiang was delighted upon hearing this. "Oh, so you're an expert in gynecology. But no one in my family is sick. I just want to discuss this condition with you. I hope you don't misunderstand..."
"Pah! You're the one who's misunderstanding!" Xu Xiaoya shot Wang Xiaoqiang a glance, her face turning even redder.
"Since you're not misunderstanding, let's hear your thoughts!" Wang Xiaoqiang maintained his serious expression.
There! She was in a bind. If she didn't discuss it with him, it would seem like she had a problem with her thoughts!
Xu Xiaoya felt a wave of frustration. She pouted her thin, red lips and said, "The condition you mentioned... right, what symptoms did you describe just now...?"
"Uh, during menstruation, irregular periods, abdominal pain, and... breast..."
"Alright, I get it." Before Wang Xiaoqiang could finish saying "swelling," Xu Xiaoya made a stopping gesture, frowned, and said, "In such cases, a detailed physical examination is usually required. If it's an inflammatory infection, Western medicine is used for symptomatic treatment. If it's not an inflammation, it's a functional disorder, and in severe cases, traditional Chinese medicine is used for regulation..."
"Would traditional Chinese medicine involve tonifying the liver and kidneys?" Wang Xiaoqiang asked.
"Yes, most gynecological issues are related to the liver and kidneys. In traditional Chinese medicine, treatment starts with these two organs." Xu Xiaoya thought that Wang Xiaoqiang had a good understanding. He had learned a bit from reading, but it was a pity that he was applying it in the wrong place. A chicken farmer, studying gynecology for no reason!
"Uh..." Wang Xiaoqiang was pleased to find that his views aligned with Xu Xiaoya's. He nodded lightly and then lowered his head to think.
Since tonifying the liver and kidneys was a viable method, which type of qi from the Five Elements would be suitable?
The Five Elements correspond to the five organs of the human body: Metal to the lungs, Wood to the liver, Water to the kidneys, Fire to the heart, and Earth to the spleen. Clearly, Water corresponds to the kidneys, and Wood to the liver. If the goal was to tonify the liver and kidneys, Water and Wood qi would be appropriate.
Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang's thoughtful expression, Xu Xiaoya couldn't help but laugh. "Hey, you're really into it! Don't overthink it!"
"I already have an answer." Wang Xiaoqiang stood up, his face beaming with joy.
"You have an answer? What answer?"
"Confidential!" Wang Xiaoqiang said, then turned to leave. After taking a few steps, he turned back and said, "Uh, right, Doctor Xu, the wild mountain chickens and eggs from the chicken farm are free for you. If you want to eat them, just give me a call, and I'll have someone deliver them."
"Uh, thank you, Xiaoqiang. But can you please not call me Doctor Xu? It makes us seem distant!" Xu Xiaoya said, lowering her head.
"Then what should I call you?"
"By name!"
"Alright, Xu... uh, Xiaoya, I'm going back!" Wang Xiaoqiang said and turned to leave.
"Uh," watching Wang Xiaoqiang's retreating back, Xu Xiaoya felt a sense of melancholy.
Because they were planning to enter the provincial city market, the mountain eggs from the chicken farm hadn't been sold in the county for two days. As a result, the number of wild mountain eggs in the farm's refrigerated storage had reached a record high of 4,700.
Two days later, in the early morning, Wang Xiaoqiang called Xu Qingxue. Xu Qingxue said she had already contacted the managers of several hotels in the provincial city and asked Wang Xiaoqiang to deliver the eggs directly.
Wang Xiaoqiang didn't expect Xu Qingxue to be so efficient. He thanked her, hung up the phone, and instructed Zhao Dabao and his wife to pack all 4,700 wild mountain eggs from the refrigerated storage into boxes and load them onto the truck. Then, Wang Xiaoqiang drove the small truck to the provincial city. Now that he had a driver's license, he could drive anywhere in the country.
Upon arriving in the provincial city, he picked up Xu Qingxue at a crossroads near the Xu family's residence and followed the route she specified.
Xu Qingxue was dressed casually today, wearing black pencil pants, sneakers, and a white round-neck knitted sweater. Her well-defined face, prominent nose, and deep-set eyes made her look both casual and dignified, with a touch of cold beauty and a hint of authority.
However, when facing Wang Xiaoqiang, this woman put aside her cold and authoritative demeanor and appeared gentle and approachable. She asked him various questions along the way, and Wang Xiaoqiang also inquired about the Xu Yongqian couple. Xu Qingxue nodded and said that both were doing well, adding, "Since you treated my mother, her health has improved day by day. She can now go shopping alone and walk long distances without feeling short of breath or anxious..."
"Still, it's best not to overexert her," Wang Xiaoqiang said, feeling relieved but also giving a doctor-like reminder. This made him seem like a real doctor.
Xu Qingxue nodded and suddenly turned to ask, as if casually, "Hey, Xiaoqiang, have you figured out the gynecological issue?"
"I have!" Wang Xiaoqiang said confidently.
"Then, for my condition, what's the best treatment?" Xu Qingxue turned her head, her face flushed, and asked seriously. Although the condition wasn't serious, it greatly affected her life and work, causing her much distress. Despite her efforts to remain calm, her tone betrayed a hint of urgency.
"No medication, no injections. I'll treat you with qigong!" Wang Xiaoqiang sounded a bit like a charlatan.
But Xu Qingxue believed him.
"That's great!" Xu Qingxue said happily, then pouted and frowned. "Xiaoqiang, you don't know how much I hate taking medicine. In the past year, I've taken more medicine than in the previous twenty years. I'm so tired of it!"
"Indeed, all medicines have side effects, whether they are traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine."
"Exactly, I'm almost getting a stomach problem from taking so much medicine. Fortunately, I met you, a great expert, or I would have to continue taking them!" Xu Qingxue stared at Wang Xiaoqiang with shining eyes, as if he were a treasure.
Under her gaze, Wang Xiaoqiang felt his face heat up. He turned his attention back to driving and said, "Once we're done with this, we'll find a place, and I'll treat you..."
"Okay!" Xu Qingxue responded softly. Thinking about the treatment, she couldn't help but blush slightly and quickly turned her head. Then she suddenly pointed to a hotel on the right side of the road and said, "Hey, we're here, the Di Zun Grand Hotel!"
Wang Xiaoqiang turned his head and saw a grand hotel by the roadside. The hotel had a water feature and a wide parking area, resembling a small square. It was clear that the hotel was of high quality. He slowed down and, following Xu Qingxue's instructions, drove to a small side entrance on the right side of the hotel.
