Chapter 132: College entrance examination is approaching and Hongmei is injured in a car accident.
There is still one month left before Hongmei and Niuniu will take the college entrance examination. Taoist Priest Yuan Yanqin came to visit Niuniu at Professor Chen Zhuoran's home in the provincial capital.
Grandma Lu Jingde, Sister-in-law Hao Xia, Professor Chen Zhuoran, and Qian Yizheng warmly welcomed Taoist Master Yuan Yanqin. They specially prepared a room for Taoist Master Yuan Yanqin and invited her to stay for a few more days.
Taoist Master Yuan Yanqin performed Taoist thank-you gifts to Grandma Lu Jingde, Sister-in-law Hao Xia, and Professor Chen Zhuoran one by one.
"Grandma Lu, I see you have white hair but a youthful face and a healthy body. I'm really envious of you." Taoist Priest Yuan Yanqin complimented.
Taoist Priest Yuan Yanqin looked at Professor Chen Zhuoran's face and said in a gentle voice, "Hello, Professor Chen. I heard from Qian Yizhen that you just came back from Beijing for medical treatment and you are a little weak. I suggest that you practice Taoist health-preserving exercises to help you regain your health. Are you willing to accept it?"
Professor Chen Zhuoran immediately said, "Master Zhang, I accept and am willing to learn. Thank you for teaching me."
Grandma Lu Jingde, Sister-in-law Hao Xia, and Qian Yizheng all shouted, "I want to learn, too." Everyone smiled at each other.
Taoist Priest Yuan Yanqin said: "Taoist health-preserving exercises are an ancient health-preserving method that combines physical and mental training, aiming to achieve health and longevity through specific movements and breathing techniques.
Taoist health-preserving exercises: including the Five Elements Qigong, Yin-Yang Transformation, and Shoulder Transformation. These exercises are designed to enhance Yang energy, unblock the whole body, and improve sleep and physical fitness.
Taoist Huiyang Gong: Through specific movements and breathing exercises, it helps the yang energy return to the body and strengthens the physical and mental state.
Knocking the Sky Drum: By knocking the imaginary "drum" above the head, you can massage your shoulders and back to relieve tension in the shoulders, neck and back.
Clapping therapy: By clapping the hands, the body's qi channels are vibrated, which stimulates the circulation of the twelve meridians and the eight extraordinary meridians, and assists in the treatment of various acute and chronic diseases.
Sitting to nourish the mind: emphasize nourishing the mind while sitting, gather and nourish Qi through meditation and sitting posture, and achieve the integration of physical and mental energy.
In addition, Taoist health-preserving exercises also include basic movements such as teeth-clicking and fist-holding, which are designed to return to the innate and enhance physical and mental state. Taoist health-preserving exercises not only focus on physical exercise, but also emphasize the calmness of the mind and the control of breathing to achieve the effect of both body and mind. "
Taoist Master Yuan Yanqin took a sip of tea and continued, "Professor Chen Zhuoran, I also had surgery for gastric cancer. After the surgery, I have been practicing Taoist health-preserving exercises. It has been five years now. I have a checkup every year, and all indicators are normal. I have passed the critical period and have fully recovered. Speaking of my second life, it was given by Yang Ruolan, Qian Yizheng, and Wang Min." Taoist Master Yuan Yanqin looked at Qian Yizheng affectionately.
When Niu Niu came home from school and saw Yuan Yanqin's mother, she hugged her excitedly and couldn't stop crying. Yuan Yanqin patted her daughter Niu Niu on the back and said, "You are going to take the college entrance examination soon. You are already a grown-up girl, but you are still crying. Isn't it embarrassing?" "Mom, these are tears of joy. Don't get me wrong." Niu Niu said shyly.
Sister-in-law Hao Xia said: "Niuniu is a very lovable child. She is very capable of taking care of herself and has good academic performance. She is much better than our Hongmei."
"Mom, how can you belittle me in front of so many people? Humph." Hongmei said unhappily.
"Hongmei and Niuniu are both good children. They will take the college entrance examination soon and will grow up and fly away. I really can't bear to part with these two granddaughters." Grandma Lu Jingde interrupted.
"Grandma Lu, the sky is high and the birds fly freely. The children will fly away sooner or later. Time flies, and our current task is to cherish the present and live happily every day. Don't worry, Uncle Zhuoran, Sister-in-law Hao Xia, I, and Ming Yuanhui will always be with you and will be there whenever you call." Qian Yizheng comforted.
Taoist Priest Yuan Yanqin personally made Wenchang talismans for Hongmei and Niu Niu who were taking the college entrance examination, and Qian Baogui who was taking the high school entrance examination, to help them.
The Wenchang Fu is considered a traditional cultural symbol that can enhance learning motivation, improve concentration and memory, and help improve academic fortune and wisdom.
The three children were very happy. They accepted the Wenchang Talisman solemnly and wished themselves to get good grades in the exam.
Unexpectedly, Hongmei was hit by a tractor on the way to school, resulting in a broken hip. The doctor advised: "You need to rest at home for one to two months before you can recover." This made Hongmei and sister-in-law Hao Xia very anxious.
Sister-in-law Hao Xia kept blaming Hongmei: "Why are you so careless? You will take the college entrance examination in less than a month. What should we do?" Hongmei just kept wiping away her tears.
Grandma Lu Jingde found Qian Yizhen and said, "Go and persuade Hao Xia and Hongmei. They are losing their composure at the critical moment." Qian Yizhen followed Grandma Lu Jingde to the Lu family, holding the military pigeon.
"Hongmei, what happened? Does it still hurt?", "Aunt Yizhen, it hurts a little, but I can overcome it. My mom nags me all the time, and I feel so upset. I can't study at all. My classmates are studying hard in the classroom, but I have to lie in bed to recuperate. I'm so anxious. Why am I so careless? Besides, you can't blame me. I was walking on the sidewalk. It was the tractor that hit me illegally. It's not my fault." Hongmei said with a sob.
"Hongmei, how about this? As long as you study hard and seriously, you can also achieve good learning results at home. When Niu Niu comes back from school, talk to her and ask her to give you extra lessons every day based on the teacher's lectures and homework requirements. Aren't you two always studying and making progress together?" Hongmei nodded with satisfaction, picked up the textbook and mock test questions and began to study seriously.
Qian Yizhen pulled sister-in-law Hao Xia out of the door and gently closed it: "My dear sister-in-law Hao Xia, you have to know that now is not the time to blame or quarrel. Time is pressing. What is most needed is to stabilize the morale of the troops and not disrupt Hongmei's study. What you need to do most now is to shut up, prepare three meals a day, take care of her clothes and food, obey her will, and give her a quiet learning environment until the college entrance examination is over and her hip fracture is completely healed. Got it, Mom?"
Sister-in-law Hao Xia said a little aggrievedly: "I am doing this for her own good. Why is she so careless? Your uncle Zhuoran is sick and needs to be taken care of. Now there is another patient who needs to be taken care of. I feel so tired, mainly mentally."
"Sister Hao Xia, listen to me, this is only temporary. Just hold on, it will soon be over. When Hongmei gets the college admission letter, you will be so happy. Think about more good things, and your heart will not be tired." Qian Yizheng patted Sister Hao Xia on the back and said.
Qian Yizhen persuaded Niuniu to stop living on campus and go to school during the day and go back to Lu's house to study with Hongmei at night, so as to help Hongmei keep up with her studies. Niuniu agreed to Qian Yizhen's request without hesitation.
Sister-in-law Hao Xia sincerely thanked Niu Niu and Qian Yizhen. She stopped complaining, calmed down, and worked with the housekeeper to take good care of the elderly, children, patients, and the daily life of the two college entrance examination candidates.
Grandma Lu Jingde said, "Yizhen, you are the savior of our family. We are used to it. Whenever there is something wrong at home, the first thing we think of is you." Uncle Zhuoran said ashamedly, "Thank you, Yizhen. I am sorry for making you worry. It is my fault.
