Chapter 101: Hard to endure (Part )
Yang Baozhu immediately understood what Ruogu meant. She asked excitedly, "Is this really possible? My mother doesn't have to undergo another surgery to remove the tumor?"

Ruogu's expression remained unchanged. She said calmly, "Surgical removal may increase the risk of metastasis. It is better to stabilize it with acupuncture."

Yang Baozhu immediately turned to look at Wang Yun, and asked eagerly, "Mom, do you think this is feasible?"

Wang Yun obviously thought more than Yang Baozhu. She asked calmly, "How long will the whole course of treatment last? Will it affect my work? Do I need to take medication for life?"

Yang Baozhu said angrily: "Mom, it's already this time, and you still have to think about work. Is work more important than life?"

Wang Yun narrowed her eyes slightly and said with an unhappy face: "Baozhu! Children should not interrupt when adults are talking. You are very uneducated. Have you forgotten your etiquette lessons?"

Wang Yun's words were very serious. Yang Baozhu lowered her head with an unpleasant expression. No matter how lively she was, she didn't dare to act unruly in front of her mother. Seeing that she had calmed down, Wang Yun said to Ruogu, "I'm so sorry. This girl is unstable and a little unruly."

Ruogu shook her head slightly, her face calm as she said, "The little girl is not grown up yet, don't restrict her too much. You need to continue to treat your illness for at least three months. The frequency of acupuncture three times a week will have some impact on your work. I plan to prescribe a prescription for Gan Ji Tang for you, and you can take the medicine according to your physical condition."

Traditional Chinese medicine treatment is much more conservative than Western medicine, and does not require a lot of time in the hospital. Wang Yun was still very happy to accept it. Although she attaches great importance to work, she also cares about her own health. She did not hesitate too much and said in a gentle voice: "Then follow Doctor Chen's treatment plan. I will fully cooperate."

Ruogu nodded slightly. She had thought that a strong woman like Wang Yun would have many opinions about the treatment, but she didn't expect that she would be so cooperative. Ruogu was naturally more willing to treat patients who obeyed her arrangements.

She brought Wang Yun into the ward. Seeing this, Chi Zhengzheng hurriedly followed, and Yang Baozhu followed closely behind. Ruogu asked Wang Yun to lie on her back on the bed, and then prepared for acupuncture.

Yang Baozhu stared at it intently. She didn't know why, but she felt inexplicably nervous. Even her breathing became cautious, for fear of disturbing something.

Wang Yun, on the other hand, was very calm. Her eyes were like a calm lake, without any ripples. She turned her head and saw Yang Baozhu pinching the corner of her clothes with a worried look in her eyes. Her heart suddenly felt a little bitter. She said in a calm voice, "Baozhu, go out and wait."

Yang Baozhu said reluctantly: "Acupuncture is not surgery, why can't I watch it?"

Wang Yun said calmly, "I will be distracted if you are here. If you don't obey, don't stay with me. I will have someone send you back."

Yang Baozhu pouted unhappily. She didn't dare to challenge Wang Yun's patience and could only walk out reluctantly.

After Yang Baozhu walked out and closed the door, Wang Yun looked at Ruogu and said softly, "My daughter has a perverse personality, and I don't know what she will be like in the future."

Ruogu was taking out the needle. Hearing this, he chuckled and said, "Both you and Mr. Yang are outstanding people. Baozhu will surely be good in the future."

When people are vulnerable, they will want to talk to someone, and Wang Yun is no exception. She sighed and said, "I'm not worried about her future, but this girl has a bad temper and she doesn't care what she says. I'm afraid she will do something wrong on impulse. You also know that the situation of the Yang family is complicated."

Ruogu has had interactions with both wives of the Yang family. She has to know what to say and what not to say, so as not to cause trouble for herself. Ruogu twisted the needle tip with her fingers and inserted it into the acupuncture point skillfully, and then whispered: "Baozhu may seem spoiled, but she is actually very sensible. You haven't been with her for so many years. Has she caused any trouble?"

Wang Yun shook her head slightly. Not only did Yang Baozhu not get into trouble, but she was loved by the old man and old lady of the Yang family, so much so that the two elders would sometimes stand on her side.

Ruogu gently twisted the needle and injected Qi along the needle, allowing the airflow to enter the body and wrap around the cancer cells. Wang Yun only felt her body warm. After she gained Qi, Ruogu spoke:

"A daughter is always more unrestrained in front of her mother, because she knows that her mother is the most tolerant person in the world. So Baozhu shows her true self in front of you, but not in front of outsiders. Even in front of her father, she is disguised."

Wang Yun thought about Baozhu's every detail and found that it was just as Ruogu said. She blamed herself and said, "I don't even understand her as well as you do. I am a failure as a mother."

Everyone has their own reasons. It is not easy for Wang Yun to get to where she is today.

People outside say that she is indifferent to Baozhu, but Ruogu doesn't think so. If she really doesn't care, how could Baozhu care so much about her life and death.

Wang Yun divorced and did not draw a clear line with the Yang family. Isn't it also for her daughter's sake? Ruogu's mouth corners slightly raised, and she said softly:

"You have too many things to worry about. Baozhu is not with you, and she is growing up so fast. It is normal that you don't know her well enough. As long as you have her in your heart, she shouldn't mind too much."

Wang Yun smiled bitterly. She tried to ignore the discomfort caused by acupuncture and said weakly, "You must have a very good relationship with your daughter. Baozhu is very envious of Huaixi. What do you usually talk about with your daughter?"

Seeing her pale face and beads of sweat on her forehead, Ruogu knew that she was very tired at the moment, so he motioned Chi Zhengzheng to wipe the sweat off her face and said in a gentle voice:
"Huaixi and I spend every day together. We don't deliberately find topics to chat about. We just talk about whatever comes to mind. She is getting older, and we can't treat her like a child anymore. It's time to talk to her about some family matters and social etiquette."

Ruogu twisted the needle again, and this action made Wang Yun gasp. After she recovered, she said weakly: "It is true that I neglected her too much. No matter how smart a girl is, she will never be able to grow up without her mother by her side to teach her by example..."

Ruogu agreed with her words very much. Her daughter was sensitive and thought a lot. Without someone who truly cared about her and patiently guided her, it would be easy for her to go astray.

"Baozhu is still young, you still have plenty of time to accompany her, don't rush."

Wang Yun was sweating profusely due to the pain. The air flow entering her body seemed to be fighting against something. She didn't expect acupuncture to be so painful. After gritting her teeth and persisting for more than an hour, it finally became less painful.

At this moment, her body felt like it was soaking in a hot spring, and even the gaps between her bones felt comfortable. The places that used to feel painful now felt much more relaxed.

She breathed a sigh of relief and said lazily, "Doctor Chen, does acupuncture hurt this much every time?"

Ruogu comforted him softly, "Of course not. It will only be difficult the first time. The rest will be within your body's tolerance range. Don't worry."
