Chapter 83: Lifting the Pot and Opening the Lid

Ye Qingcheng and Zhang Ping continued chatting in the living room for a while.

One of the topics discussed was that Zhang Ping had a boyfriend during college. They were very much in love and had even decided to get married after graduation.

Ye Qingcheng asked her why they broke up later.

Zhang Ping hesitated for a long time, but in the end just sighed and said nothing.

of course.

Ye Qingcheng didn't take it to heart at all. She asked the question purely out of gossip. Seeing that Zhang Ping didn't want to talk about it, she didn't ask any more questions.

Seeing that the conversation was almost over, Zhang Ping stood up and left. Before leaving, she looked at Lu Yun deeply again.

That look seemed as if he wanted to eat Lu Yun right away.

Lu Yun shuddered.

After Zhang Ping left, Lu Yun asked, "Sister Qingcheng, why did she come to our house?"

Ye Qingcheng spat, "What's the matter? You don't dress properly, and you blame others for looking at you?"

Lu Yun smiled awkwardly, knowing that Sister Qingcheng had misunderstood him.

After a pause, Ye Qingcheng explained, "Sister Ping's husband is the CEO of a listed company in the provincial capital. He has some connections with the Jin Group, so Sister Ping took the initiative to find me and said that she could help me set up a meeting with the boss of the Jin Group."

"I see."

Lu Yun nodded, but did not express his true feelings, that is, Zhang Ping might not have any good intentions.

The night passed.

The next day, Lu Yun came to Xinglin Hall and said to Yu Hongwen, "Master Yu, how is your practice of the Nine-Turn Yang-Returning Needle going?"

Yu Hongwen stood up respectfully and said, "Teacher, it's almost done. It will only take a week at most to master it all."

"Well, that's good. Once you have learned the Nine-Turns Yang-Returning Needle, I will teach you the Seven-Knocks of Ghost Gate."

Yu Hongwen's body trembled: "Thank you, teacher!"

The way the two addressed each other was very interesting. Lu Yun called Yu Hongwen "Mr. Yu", while Yu Hongwen called him "Teacher". The two had their own opinions.

"Mr. Yu, long time no see!"

At this moment, a middle-aged man with a slicked-back hair suddenly came from outside the door and greeted Yu Hongwen with a smile.

Yu Hongwen also said enthusiastically: "It turns out to be Mr. Shen, please come in quickly."

The man with the slicked-back hair is named Shen Jinhua. He is from the Shen family in Jiangnan Province and has always been on good terms with Yu Hongwen.

"Mr. Yu, didn't you retire a long time ago? Why are you seeing patients again?" Shen Jinhua asked.

"Haha, these are all the teacher's requests. However, after coming here to see patients, I found that it is indeed interesting to treat patients. Staying at home all day, my bones are almost rusted." Yu Hongwen said with a smile.

teacher?

Shen Jinhua thought about it and felt that Mr. Yu’s teacher should also be a respected senior!

Without going into details, Shen Jinhua said, "Mr. Yu, actually I came here today mainly because I have a disease and I want you to take a look."

"Well, tell me about your symptoms."

"I just have trouble urinating. The amount is very small each time, and the color is yellowish," said Shen Jinhua.

"Does it hurt when you urinate?" Yu Hongwen asked while taking Shen Jinhua's pulse.

"will not."

"Are there any other discomforts?"

Shen Jinhua thought for a moment and said, "Also, my lower abdomen is a little bloated, but there's nothing else wrong."

Yu Hongwen nodded and said, "You have dampness and heat combined, and your bladder is not able to transform qi properly, which is why your lower abdomen is bloated and your urination is not smooth. It's not a big problem. I'll prescribe Fu Ba Zheng San for you to take."

"Thank you, Mr. Yu."

Yu Hongwen wrote out a prescription in a very eloquent manner. At this time, Lu Yun had just finished acupuncture for a patient and came out to see the prescription. He suggested, "You can add two herbs that can clear the lungs, such as platycodon and almonds."

Shen Jinhua immediately shouted angrily: "Where did this apprentice come from? He is so ignorant. How can Master Yu prescribe medicine? Do you have the right to point fingers at him?"

As soon as he said this, the patients around him all looked strange.

Yu Hongwen's face also darkened, and he said, "Mr. Shen, you must not be rude to my teacher!"

"Your teacher?"

Shen Jinhua was stunned and couldn't wrap his mind around it for a moment.

The patients around him teased and said, "How dare you say that Dr. Lu is an apprentice? Sir, are you a funny guy hired by the monkey?"

"Haha, you must be from another place. Who in Jiangcheng doesn't know that our Divine Doctor Lu is Elder Yu's teacher? You should be happy that you can get guidance from Divine Doctor Lu!"

"That's right. Normally, we can't even see Divine Doctor Lu. Today, he finally came once, and you actually called him an apprentice. It's really funny."

Listening to the laughter of the patients around him, Shen Jinhua was completely confused.

Doctor Lu?

Mr. Yu’s teacher?

Just him?

Shen Jinhua couldn't believe it.

He thought that Yu Hongwen's teacher was an elder and respected person, but he didn't expect that he was so young!

Seeing the solemn expression on Yu Hongwen's face, Shen Jinhua knew that this was definitely not a joke, so he quickly stood up and said, "I'm sorry, Doctor Lu, I didn't know your identity just now, I'm sorry."

Lu Yun waved his hand casually and said, "It's okay. Ignorance is not a crime."

Shen Jinhua finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Yu Hongwen asked seriously, "Teacher, you just asked me to add lung-clearing herbs to Bazheng Powder. Is there any reason for that?"

Lu Yun nodded: "This is called the method of lifting the pot and opening the lid."

"Lift the pot and open the lid?"

"Ok!"

Lu Yun explained: "Our human body is like a teapot. If you tilt it slightly, the tea will pour out. But if you want the tea to pour faster, you just need to open the lid."

"I understand!"

Yu Hongwen slapped his forehead and said, "The lungs are the canopy, and they are at the highest position among the five internal organs, just like the lid of a teapot. After using the lung-clearing herbs, it is like opening the lid, and the diuretic effect will naturally be stronger."
