This time the acupuncture lasted for forty minutes, and the old lady kept saying that it was effective. Wen Qiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "The effect is not so immediate. After the whole course of treatment, there may be some effect."
The old lady just wanted to strengthen her confidence. She insisted that it would work, and it would work.
Wen Qiao put away the needle bag, helped the old lady clean her skin, went to the bathroom to wash her hands, and then called Fu Nanli into the bedroom.
The two men helped the old lady to the dining room.
"It's just dinner time. I, an old woman, have someone to eat with today."
At a glance, Qiu Ya was still sitting on the sofa in the living room. She hadn't left for nearly an hour. The old lady couldn't help but frown.
Seeing them coming out, Qiu Ya immediately stood up and greeted them: "I don't know how good Wen Qiao's medical skills are. Are you feeling better, old lady?"
Wu Yue'e forced a smile: "Qiao Qiao's acupuncture skills are better than many old Chinese medicine practitioners who have been practicing for decades."
Qiu Ya said thoughtfully: "That's great."
Wu Yue'e said, "Okay, let's have lunch together."
Wen Qiao and Fu Nanli sat on either side of the old lady, and Qiu Ya wanted to sit next to Fu Nanli.
The old lady frowned. How could this girl have no sense of propriety at all
"Just sit opposite me, Xiaoya."
It was a round table, and sitting opposite her meant she wasn't leaning against either side, which also showed that the old lady was keeping a distance from her.
Qiu Ya felt that the old lady didn't give her any face at all. She felt very aggrieved, but she had no choice but to sit opposite the old lady.
Wu Yue'e first poured a bowl of pork liver soup and placed it next to Wen Qiao, smiling: "Drink some soup, our Qiao Qiao has worked hard again today."
Wen Qiao picked up the soup: "It's not hard."
Wu Yue'e turned to Fu Nanli and said, "Your girlfriend is very sincere."
"Yes, he is always silly and not very smart in some aspects, but fortunately he is very diligent in his studies."
Qiu Ya snorted in her heart, thinking that Wen Qiao was just pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, and he was actually very smart.
Wu Yue'e ordered the housekeeper: "Go and get the mahogany box from the bedside drawer in my room."
After a while, the housekeeper came out with a well-made wooden box. Wu Yue'e took out a high-quality jade bracelet from it and said, "This is the bracelet my grandmother left me. I want to pass it down from generation to generation. You keep it."
Qiu Ya looked at the bracelet, her eyes were filled with jealousy and she felt unhappy. Was it necessary to do this in front of her? Did he consider her feelings
Wen Qiao quickly put down the spoon in his hand: "This is a very precious thing of yours, I can't accept it."
Wu Yue'e held her hand and helped her put it on: "Grandma gave it to you because she likes you. Besides, doctors have to charge for home visits. You work so hard, how can I let you go for nothing?"
Wen Qiao: "I just want to cure you and relieve your pain. I never thought about getting anything in return."
"I know you're a good kid, but grandma loves you, so she gave it to you. You must accept it."
Fu Nanli finally spoke: "Grandma gave it to you, just keep it."
Qiu Ya was completely ignored, and the smile on her face seemed to be a little hard to maintain. Was the old lady doing this on purpose for her to see
Wen Qiao's words were flawless and really pleased the old man.
Wen Qiao accepted the exquisitely crafted jade bracelet.
After the meal, Qiu Ya couldn't stay any longer, so she said goodbye to the old lady and left in a hurry.
Fu Nanli looked unhappy and asked, "Grandma, do you have any dealings with the Qiu family?"
