Tang Xuan sat on the sofa and looked at the white porcelain cup in her hands.
The porcelain cup that had been washed with baking soda was as clean as new. Two bright yellow cups of tea were floating on top of the light green tea. It was the dragon well that had just been delivered in the morning, light and pleasant.
She tasted it for the first time, and then, with a bitter taste in her throat, there was a burst of relief. She was used to the taste of black tea, but this was the first time she had tasted this green tea, and the fragrance of Longjing was even more pleasing than the faint, insipid scent of Keemun Black Tea, the light grass color after the spring rain and the fragrance in the air.
She took in a deep breath, her mouth still holding that sweet taste. So this was what it meant to be thirsty.
"How is it?" Seated across her, her uncle Cai Yang asked, "TangTang, how's this tea?"
Tang Tang Tang laughed, her eyebrows curved like the new moon: "Very nice to taste, I really like this taste."
Cai Yang smiled, "It's good that you like it. Next time Uncle goes to Hangzhou, I'll bring it for you."
Tang Tang's parents, Tang Chu and Mrs. Tang, were not in the mood for tea. Mrs. Tang looked at her watch repeatedly and could not help but ask Cai Yang, "A Yang, when exactly did you make an appointment with that doctor?"
Cai Yang put down his teacup and comforted them, "Sis, brother-in-law, don't worry. We've talked about the weather and the flight being late. Let's wait a little longer."
Mrs. Tang frowned. "It's almost 9 o'clock!"
Tang Chu lightly patted his wife's hand. "Alright, you don't have to worry about that. There's nothing we can do about the flight being late. Just wait patiently."
Mrs. Tang looked at her younger brother, Cai Yang, with a grumbling expression. "Is the doctor you recommended good enough?" A single trip would cost hundreds of thousands, if I didn't say so, it's not that my family couldn't afford to spend that money to treat TangTang's illness, we also spent a lot of money, we've never seen any big hospitals, never invited any experts, it's been so many years, yet TangTang's legs haven't gotten any better. "
This Doctor Fu is not someone you can hire with just money. I was lucky enough to meet a rich person in Hangzhou, and after his introduction, I finally managed to get on the line with him, not because I'm an acquaintance of his, how could ordinary people be able to get close to him? He's an old Chinese medical doctor who's cured in the past few decades, and the patients who have gone to his door can all be queued up on the street, do you think that it's easy for me to get him to come here, if not for the sake of TangTang, I won't waste my heart. "
Tang Tang Tang sweetly smiled and said, "I know uncle treats TangTang well, thank you uncle."
Cai Yang also smiled and said, "What's there to thank me for, the most important thing is that our TangTang's disease can be treated as soon as possible, right?"
Tang TangTang inwardly sighed, she also wanted to as well!
In the past few years, in order to treat her illness, her parents had taken her to countless hospitals, seen many doctors, spent a lot of money, injected a lot of acupuncture and consumed a lot of medicine, but her legs still didn't feel any better, and she was just as unconscious as before. She had been sitting in this wheelchair for who knows how many years.
Every time she went there, she would feel hopeful, but she would always come back disappointed. By now, she didn't even dare to hold on to hope anymore, afraid that the more hope she had, the more disappointed she would be.
Ding dong! Ding dong!
The doorbell rang.
The servant hurried to open the door.
The first to come in was Cai Yang's son, Tang Xuan's cousin Cai Yu. Each of his hands held a suitcase, and as soon as he entered, he put it down and said, "Doctor Fu, we're here, let's go in first."
"Doctor Fu is here!" As he spoke, Cai Yang stood up to welcome them, followed by Tang Chu and his wife.
Tang Tang Tang sat on the sofa and tried her best to look in the direction of the door. She was still thinking about what that "old Chinese doctor" would look like, and then the scene from the TV flashed through her mind. Immediately, she recalled the old Chinese doctor's appearance: an old man with a beard, white hair and reading glasses.
Just as she was thinking this, a man wearing an iron-gray suit walked in. Tang TangTang was stunned when she saw the man, who was this? This couldn't be the old Chinese medical doctor that her uncle spoke of, right? Isn't this too young?
Traditional Chinese Medicine...
Is he very old? Not even forty years old? Furthermore, she was so beautiful! Under his two long slanted brows, his eyes were bright and spirited, as if he could see deep into a person's heart with a single glance. Under his tall and straight nose was a beautiful line that seemed to depict a pair of lips.
This time, not only Tang Tang, even his uncle Cai Yang and her parents were shocked. They looked at the young man with a stunned face, unable to speak.
After a long while, Cai Yang finally reacted. He forced a smile and asked tentatively, "You are …"
The man extended his hand and said very politely, "Hello, my name is Fu Jun."
Cai Yang's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. "You, you are..." is it Doctor Fu? "
He nodded. "Yes."
Tang Chu and the others looked at each other, speechless. They hadn't thought that the old Chinese doctor Cai Yang spoke of would be so young. When he looked at Fu Jun again, his eyes were full of suspicion.
It wasn't that they felt sorry for the few hundred thousand dollars, but after all, they had brought Tang TangTang to so many hospitals and invited so many experts to visit. Tang Tang Tang's condition hadn't improved at all, and looking at such a young 'doctor' now, they couldn't help but doubt him.
Fu Jun naturally saw the suspicion in their eyes, but he didn't care. As if he didn't see it, he indifferently asked, "May I ask where is the patient?"
It was only after Fu Jun had asked that did Tang Chu and the others react. Cai Yang hurriedly said, "It's inside. Doctor Fu, please come in and have a seat."
Mrs. Tang frowned and glared at Cai Yang. She thought to herself, "What kind of doctor did you hire? I knew you were unreliable."
Cai Yang had an apologetic look on his face as he smiled, then he whispered into Mrs. Tang's ear, "Since they're already here, why don't you let TangTang have a look first."
With that, Cai Yang rushed to Fu Jun's side and said, "Doctor Fu, thank you for your hard work. Quickly, please come in."
Cai Yang brought Fu Junto Tang's side and said, "Doctor Fu, look, this is the person I told your friend before."
Fu Junlooked over at Tang Tang Tang, and couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
He didn't expect that his patient would be a young girl. She looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old, but her face still had some traces of immaturity, and her facial features were as delicate as if they were painted.
Under her long eyelashes, there was a pair of big eyes that were as clear as water, and her eyes were very clean, without even a speck of dust. At this moment, she was curiously looking at him, and her eyes carried some shyness and uneasiness.
Cai Yang helped introduce her, "Tang Tang, this is Dr. Fu, he's a very good Chinese doctor, he can definitely cure your leg." As he spoke, he turned to Fu Jun and said, "Doctor Fu, this is my niece Tang Tang, Tang Dynasty's Tang Dynasty, Candy's Tang, her that …" Her leg was injured in a car accident five years ago and she was unable to stand up. We have also sought out quite a few doctors … "Ai, look at this teenage girl, how pitiful …"
Fu Junnodded. "Alright, I'll take a look first." As he spoke, he asked Cai Yang, "Where is it convenient? I'll check with Miss Tang first. "
Cai Yang was stunned for a moment before he turned to look at his elder sister. Mrs. Tang hurriedly said, "How about this, Doctor Fu, let's go to TangTang's room."
Cai Yang agreed and helped carry Tang Tang Tang onto the wheelchair and said, "TangTang, Uncle will take you to your room, you have to obediently listen to Doctor Fu, do you understand?"
Tang TangTang sneakily glanced at Fu Jun once more before nodding her head.
Because Tang Tang Tang's legs were inconvenient, her room had already been moved to the first floor. After Cai Yang helped push Tang Tang back into the room, he said to Fu Jun, "Doctor Fu, I'll leave it to you."
In the past few years, Cai Yang had been feeling anxious as he watched his older sister and brother-in-law run around for Tang Xuan. It wasn't easy to find Fu Jun. Although Fu Jun looked young, Cai Yang still held some hope in his heart, hoping that Fu Jun would be able to cure Tang Tang Tang's illness.
Fu Jun ignored Cai Yang and directly said to Cai Yu, "Little Yu, help me get that small suitcase."
"Yes, Doctor Fu." "Here, Doctor Fu," Cai Yu answered and quickly helped to carry the luggage over.
When Fu Jun took the suitcase, he saw Tang Tang Tang looking at him with a nervous expression. He smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, I'll check for you first. If you need anything, just wait until I've finished inspecting you."
His smile seemed to have some sort of magic to it that made Tang TangTang's nervousness ease up in an instant.
Watching Fu Jun enter the room and close the door, Mrs. Tang could not help but grumble at her younger brother, "Hey, Yang, is this Doctor Fu you invited really alright?" It's just a few decades old Chinese doctor, I think you've been tricked by someone, right? "
Cai Yang was a bit embarrassed himself. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Sis, I-I was recommended by someone else. Sigh, no, Sis, please don't be angry. Listen to me, this Doctor Fu came here for hundreds of thousands yuan. He doesn't have that kind of ability." Since the person is already here, let's just let him let TangTang have a look. This money has already been spent, don't you think so? "
Mrs. Tang glared at him and scolded, "If you dare to make such a decision again, I'll never forgive you!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Cai Yang nodded. "Sis, don't worry, it won't happen, it definitely won't happen..."
Having said this, Tang Chu, his wife, and the others still harbored a glimmer of hope in their hearts, even if it was just a subtle hope.
