therefore, writing with a brush pen was usually slow and required years of diligent practice to do well.At first, he had thought that Xiao Yu would give him a pleasant surprise. But when he saw Xiao...Chapter 282: Seeking Medical Treatment
"Third Brother, don't worry about this matter. Damn it! Last time when Chu Guoqing said he needed those small thugs, I let him take them away. I didn't expect that the matters wouldn’t be resolved yet and today I have to deal with the Dingtian Group!"
Zhang Dahai saw these soldiers taking away those small thugs, then turned around to tell Xiao Yu.
"Alright."
Xiao Yu nodded in agreement. He didn’t expect that Liang Shang would still have the energy to find people to smash Wan Sheng Hall when he was so sick. Originally, Xiao Yu wanted to treat him at night. However, with Zhang Dahai handling it, that would be even better. With the intelligence network of Zhang Dahai's Thirteenth Bureau, investigating criminal evidence from Dingtian Group wouldn’t be a small matter.
Actually, Xiao Yu was wrong about Liang Shang. This time of smashing Wan Sheng Hall, he had no idea whatsoever. His brother-in-law warned him not to cause trouble recently and since then he has been recuperating at home; how could he dare to get into trouble The reason for this incident was that the Manager Wang harbored resentment towards Xiao Yu because Xiao Yu played a trick on him. Ever since he followed Liang Shang, he frequently did such things by himself. Anyway, even if they were caught, as long as they mentioned Dingtian Group’s name, the police station would let them go.
"Alright then, Third Brother. I’ll leave first; in ten days, this matter should be resolved."
Zhang Dahai said and got into his car. Although he could investigate criminal evidence from Dingtian Group, but it still had to be handed over to the local authorities. With their Thirteenth Bureau’s influence, no one dared to abuse their power.
If the person they were dealing with was an official, that would have been a different story. After all, in dealing with officials, they wielded more power than ordinary people.
Xiao Yu nodded and watched Zhang Dahai's car slowly drive away.
At this time, Xiao Hongyang and Liu Erxi also came out from the house; when they were inside, they heard something happen. By the time they ran outside, the battle had already ended.
After coming out, they only saw those small thugs being dragged away like chickens.
"Master, what happened" Xiao Hongyang asked after seeing this scene and asked Xiao Yu.
"Haha, a few troublemakers. They must be sent by Dingtian Group!"
Xiao Yu chuckled lightly and said to Captain Xiao Hongyang.
"Dingtian Group Dr. Xiao, we need to be more careful from now on; it’s rumored that the Dingtian Group has a mafia background and they cover the entire Dongcheng District. Moreover, they do all kinds of evil deeds here!"
Upon hearing that these people were sent by Dingtian Group, Liu Erxi was startled.
He had been here for several years and was always at the bottom rung. When a group of people got bored, they would chat about these kinds of things, so he knew a lot about them.
Especially since where they lived—the garbage dump—paid monthly protection fees to this Tengtian Group! Otherwise, they wouldn't be allowed to collect trash. Although each household only paid fifty yuan per month, it was money that came from their hard work and sweat.
Last year, a new family had moved in, but because they hadn't paid the protection fee, someone had severed their Achilles tendon. Although it had been reconnected later on, since they went to a small hospital with little money, the man was still limping up until now.
Furthermore, he heard that this Tengtian Group had powerful backing—people from the group who were arrested would usually be released within a day. This made some people who wanted police protection completely give up and accept their exploitation without complaint.
The man whose Achilles tendon was severed reported it to the police, but after they took someone away, those men came back to the garbage dump the next day and smashed his house there as well as wrecked a hospital he had been staying in.
When these people went to smash that person's home at the garbage dump, many others were watching by the side. Seeing their ruthless looks made everyone who hadn't paid the protection fees do so immediately, even though they felt aggrieved. As common folk themselves, what else could they do
"Haha, it doesn't matter! Don’t bother with them!"
Hearing Liu Erxi’s words, Xiao Yu chuckled and said nonchalantly.
When Liu Erxi heard Xiao Yu's words, he clearly froze for a moment. Although he had seen the scene on the day they opened their doors, he didn’t know those people or what they did.
So although he knew that these people were not simple, he was still somewhat worried because Tengtian Group could deal with both sides of the law, and even wealthy people nowadays wouldn't want to provoke them.
Xiao Hongyang didn’t have many worries. He knew some of Xiao Yu’s background; if this Tengtian Group continued to cause trouble, it would be courting death.
Especially Zhang Dailai at the head of the violent department—this wasn't someone who ate for free. Not to mention his connections in the capital city; how hard was it to deal with a single Tengtian Group Therefore, when he heard Liu Erxi’s words, he had no worries whatsoever.
"Let's go! We should enter!" Xiao Yu said and walked into Wanshentang.
Xiao Hongyang followed nonchalantly as well. Liu Erxi then looked around worriedly before entering too.
In the afternoon, Xiao Yu saw patients on his own while Xiao Hongyang went to order a signboard. A simple unveiling ceremony would be held tomorrow when Zhang Dailai delivered the contract.
"Doctor, do you provide consultations here I was introduced by Old Wang!"
As Xiao Yu sat in the clinic reading a book, an elderly man over sixty entered and said to him.
"House call Who needs a doctor" When Xiao Yu saw the visitor, he put down his book and asked.
"Doctor Xiao It's my daughter-in-law who is ill. I heard from Old Wang that it’s not expensive to see a doctor here, and the doctors are very skilled, so I came over!" The old man sat at Xiao Yu's consultation desk and said.
"That's right! You were introduced by Old Wang! Tell me, what’s wrong with your daughter-in-law"
Xiao Yu asked when he heard the old man speak. This old man was one of the first few elderly people who came to see Xiao Yu and was very enthusiastic, having referred many people to him.
Of course, Xiao Yu didn't disappoint these people; with minimal expenses, medication, and suffering, he helped them recover, which further enhanced his reputation.
"My daughter-in-law has a problem here," the old man pointed at his head and said. "She's been acting crazy all day long!"
“Oh! There’s something wrong with her mental health I can only make a diagnosis after seeing the patient.” Xiao Yu nodded.
Xiao Yu, though skilled, was not a god; he needed to see the patient before making a judgment based on symptoms alone.
"For house calls, if it's not too far, it costs 50 yuan! This fee must be paid regardless of whether or not I can cure the illness. Of course, if you live nearby within walking distance, there won’t be any charge for the consultation fee and other expenses; these will only be determined after seeing the patient. If curable, payment is based on the specific condition, otherwise no charge at all!"
Xiao Yu explained his charging standards to the old man.
Xiao Yu had no choice but to explain this clearly as people nowadays demand transparent consumption; failure to do so could lead to trouble if he charged for house calls and couldn't cure their ailments, especially from those who don’t understand such practices.
"Okay, okay, I understand!" The old man nodded repeatedly upon hearing Xiao Yu's explanation.
"Alright then. Wait a moment while I gather my things." Seeing the old man agree, Xiao Yu got up to pack his items.
Once he was ready, Xiao Yu went out with the old man and asked, "Where do you live And how did you come here"
"I took a bus. I live in Mingyuan Community on Health Road! No worries doctor, let's take a taxi there! Wait here for a moment while I call one." The old man quickly replied upon hearing Xiao Yu.
He was afraid that Xiao Yu would be unwilling to take the bus, and taking a bus would waste time, which is why he said they should take a taxi.
"Haha, no need! I have my own car. I'll drive you there; just give me directions!" Seeing the old man heading towards the road to find a cab, Xiao Yu quickly stopped him and said this.
"Doctor Xiao, that's not necessary. I can take the bus back home," the old man said with an apologetic expression when he saw Xiao Yu offering to drive him.
"Alright then, don't be so formal! Let’s hurry up and go; otherwise we’ll waste more time!" Grabbing hold of the old man, Xiao Yu walked towards his car.
The two people soon arrived at Xiao Yu's vehicle. He drove the elderly person out in his car.
"Uncle, how long has your daughter-in-law been ill" During the ride, Xiao Yu asked the old gentleman.
"Oh, nearly three years! It started back when they went on a trip two summers ago and their vehicle was involved in an accident," the elderly man sighed as he spoke.
“Oh... What happened that caused her illness” Xiao Yu thought for a moment before asking again.
If it were a mental health issue, it would generally be due to excessive stress or shock, which is why Xiao Yu asked this question.
"Alas… We aren't entirely sure of the specific cause. She fell ill suddenly. Two years ago, my son and daughter-in-law went on a trip, their car had an accident along the way, she suffered head injuries, was in a coma for half a month, and after waking up, it became like this. The hospital said there wasn’t any physical illness; it might have been due to shock and that resting would improve her condition. But now two years have passed, we’ve taken her to many places seeking treatment but with no improvement at all!"
The elderly man sighed deeply as he told Xiao Yu about his daughter-in-law’s situation.
Over the past couple of years, their family had been plagued by this illness. It was unbearable for them to watch her deteriorate and see their home become a chaotic mess due to her erratic behavior.
Their attempts at seeking medical help through hospitals didn’t yield any results. They couldn't afford the high costs anymore, so they stopped going to hospitals and sought alternative remedies or small clinics instead.
“Oh.” Xiao Yu nodded without speaking further, continuing to drive forward.
"From this intersection ahead, turn into the road! Walk a bit more than one hundred meters, and you'll reach our neighborhood called the Renyuan Residential Complex!"
The old man pointed towards an upcoming intersection while Xiao Yu was driving.
