Bab 33: Are you a doctor?

When Ming took out the hairpin from the box everyone was shocked. Liwei asked her, "Ming, what are you doing?" asked anxiously.

Ming didn't reply to him. She then suddenly pulled the wooden hairpin from one side and hold it from its handle. When she pulled it, a silver needle came into sight of everyone. Everyone was shocked. Even Liwei also didn't know about this needle under hairpin, how come she knows it. He looked at her, with a bewildered expression.

This hairpin was especially made by the former Emperor for the grandmother of Ji Cheng. She also had some knowledge of acupuncture and medicine. In Palace, no one is allowed to keep needles and things that can harm the Emperor. That's why after entering Palace, she couldn't practice medicine anymore.

But grandfather knows how much his wife, loved her needles. For the writer, their pen is their love and for her it's needles.

So he made this hairpin for her as a gift. Then it was treated as an heirloom and given to Ji cheng's mother and then passed to Zhao Ming. But she found about the needles accidentally and tend to practice sometime secretly.

That's why this hairpin is so dear to her. But she never expected that she would get to use these in this world like this.

Then she uncovered the woman's stomach area. And placed her hand on the abdomen and closed her eyes. She was like a human x-ray. Her senses and skills were so amazing that when she placed her hand on her stomach she started imaging her body and positions of her organs and found a point which needs to be treated. Then she took the needles and stabbed on the side of the stomach. The expression on everyone's faces was horrified. They were looking at Ming like she was some stupid. Who stabs needles like this. It's like killing a person.

But there was one person in the crowd, who was looking at her intently. Because he knows what is she doing. And he was surprised that she can do acupuncture at this young age. But the point is how can she do without any tests and monitors. Because the acupuncture originated in ancient Chinese but its method has been evolved by the time. Now they use machines to figure out the places of acupuncture. People have evolved and they have become more dependent on the machines rather than their skills and insights.

So he was wondering how can she do it without it.

As Ming was doing acupuncture, everyone was scared of her and making videos but didn't say anything. Even Liwei didn't say anything. He was looking at her amusingly and surprised. He doesn't know what is she doing but he knows that she definitely knows what she is doing.

At last, Ming pulled out the needle and put it inside the box covered by the wooden hairpin.

At that time ambulance also came. And the team of paramedics came with a stretcher. Then they start putting the woman on the stretcher. As they were leaving, Ming went to them and called the head of the team.

She told him, " She is one month pregnant. The condition of the fetus was not good. So I treated it with acupuncture. But it still needs attention and proper treatment so be careful. And inform the doctors in my stead. Thank you". As she said all this, she turned to leave.

But the officer interrupted her and asked, " Ahm, Miss are you an oriental doctor?" Officer wondered how does she woman know all this.

Then Ming replied, " You can say that". After saying that she left and other officers told the head that they need to head to the hospital quickly. So he gets on the ambulance. But in the ambulance, he remembered, that he forgot to ask the lady her name or anything. They don't even know who is she. If something had gone wrong with the patient, how will they find her?

After all, If what she said is true and this patient is pregnant who seems in her 40's. It means it's a late pregnancy but because of an accident it may cause more complications and that woman did the acupuncture. If anything were to gone, they can at least blame her for it.

Because she treated her first and they don't know if she had any medical certificate. But now due to his carelessness, he doesn't know who is she. 'He Sighed'.
