Chapter 369: Tonic Adjustment (Part 1)_1
"Er, what’s wrong?" Old man Qian turned his head and was momentarily stunned when he saw a beautiful girl following, then became somewhat flustered, "Look at the mess in the house, young lady, please sit outside, it’s embarrassing in here..."
"Uncle Qian." Yang Ruxin smiled and took a step forward, "I am a friend of your son Qian Er, my surname is Yang. I know a bit about medical skills and have come to look at your leg."
"This..." Old man Qian looked at his son.
"Dad, Sister Xin is really amazing," Qian Er quickly nodded, "If she takes a look, who knows, your leg might just get better."
"Yeah, Old Qian, Sister Xin is really great..." Chengzi and Liang Zi also nodded vigorously.
Old man Qian frowned. This young girl looked barely thirteen or fourteen. Why were his son and the others calling her sister? Was it because she looked younger than she was, or was her name Sister Xin?
Yang Ruxin ignored their musings and concentrated on Old man Qian’s injured leg. She frowned, noting the old smash injury. Although the bone hadn’t broken, it had cracked, and the tendons had been damaged too. Over time, the tendons had lost their elasticity, and the muscles had atrophied. The likelihood of a full recovery was slim, but she could adjust things to at least ease his pain and possibly allow him to walk with the help of crutches.
"Dad, let Sister Xin have a look," Qian Er, thinking his father disapproved, began to persuade, "Even if it doesn’t get better, it’s okay..."
"Miss Yang, should Xiao’er wash it for me before you take a look?" Old man Qian said, embarrassed, and reached for the tattered quilt on the kang to cover his leg.
"Uncle Qian, your leg was crushed by something heavy before. The tendons and muscles are necrotic now. Initially, the bone fractured, and not treated properly, it didn’t heal well but also didn’t completely break. That’s why it hurts so much when you move it slightly..."
"Sister Xin, you’re incredible! You didn’t even touch my dad’s leg; how did you know all that so clearly?" Qian Er couldn’t help but widen his eyes in amazement.
