Chapter 1176: Chapter 1203: Jian Family Reunion 10

They came so suddenly that everyone was a bit dumbfounded. Liu Fanglan was the first to react; she smiled with squinted eyes and said, "Aiya, Qingqing, so you’ve been busy these past few days, looking for a Doctor for your grandma."

Jian Qingqing immediately rushed to claim credit. "Yes, Mom. I know Grandma has been suffering every day, so I wanted to share her burden. I’ve been asking friends everywhere every day, and I finally found the best Doctor."

Jian Xiong’s expression eased a lot when he heard this. "You’re being sensible, doing this."

Jian Qingqing struck while the iron was hot. "Grandpa, let Doctor Zhang and her master treat Grandma. They’re the ones with real prestige. I asked around, you know. Lots of patients at the Divine Doctor Hall said that after taking the medicine prescribed by Doctor Zhang, their illness was gone the very next day. That’s what you call a Divine Doctor."

Zhang Mingyue put on a show of humility. "Actually, the credit all goes to my master. It’s my master who taught me. My master is a famous Doctor abroad, and is better than me in medicine. I think it’s more reliable to let my master handle it."

Doctor Xu held himself like a Divine Doctor, stroking his beard in an extremely serious manner as he said, "Where’s the patient? My schedule is tight; I don’t have that much time to spare!"

Such an arrogant Doctor—He Zhuyu took a dislike to him at first sight.

Jian Xiong turned his head to glance at Nianyang, who hadn’t said a word, then cleared his throat and said, "Doctors, thank you both for coming; Jian Mou accepts this kindness.

But I’ve already invited Divine Doctor Chu. The saying ’you don’t ask two Doctors for one illness’—that much I still understand!"

Zhang Mingyue’s expression stiffened, and Doctor Xu had even less expected that someone would actually refuse his treatment—and for the sake of a little girl at that.

He was a bit angry. "Sir, an illness is a serious matter. How can you use a little girl to insult me? Do you mean to say this little girl’s medical skills are better than mine?"

"This..."

Jian Xiong’s face didn’t look very good. What Doctor Xu said was unpleasant, but the man was still a life-saving Doctor—how could he show him a bad face?

Jian Yang said quietly, "Dad, don’t be muddle-headed. Even though we invited Divine Doctor Chu, now that there’s an even better Divine Doctor, we should choose the better one."

He Zhuyu noticed the instruments on Doctor Xu. "You’re a Western Doctor? I won’t let a Western Doctor treat me."

Jian Qingqing immediately said, "Grandma, even though Doctor Xu is a Western Doctor, Doctor Zhang is a Chinese Doctor. They combine Chinese and Western medicine—it’s definitely more reliable than this so-called ’bringing the dead back to life’ Chu Nianyang."

"Bringing the dead back to life?"

Doctor Xu immediately burst out laughing. "I’ve never heard of any such thing. It’s simply ridiculous! Once a person dies, all their organs lose activity. Unless an Immortal walks the earth, how could they come back to life?

Chinese medicine is supposed to be a cultural heritage, but it’s been ruined by people like you who go down the wrong path, dabbling in superstition with your acupuncture. You smear Chinese medicine, make people think it’s a con, like a single rat dropping ruining a whole pot of porridge!

Chinese medicine is being destroyed by people like you!"

Nianyang hadn’t spoken yet, but Jian Xiong was already displeased.

"Doctor Xu, you can’t say that. Divine Doctor Chu is not a superstitious fraud. She saved a man who was as good as dead—that’s a fact!"

"That’s still a trick!" Doctor Xu raised his voice, stubbornly. "Ever heard of the Witch Doctors of Miaojiang? They’re all swindlers, masters of sleight of hand. Even if they manage to keep someone alive, it’s just a final flare of life—they won’t last half a month before dying."
