109: Every family has its own problems

"Dr. Qin, I'm sorry, I was too emotional earlier."

For someone with Fang Hongxia's personality, it was very difficult for her to apologize to Qin Jiang on her own initiative.

From the very beginning, Qin Jiang had noticed that Fang Hongxia actually loved Fang Hong very much.

It was just that her way of loving was extremely radical and overly aggressive.

Qin Jiang looked at her and said,

"Why did you make her wear a chest binder? Don't you know how uncomfortable it made her?"

Fang Hongxia clenched her fists, and after a long while, she finally spoke:

"Thirty years ago, I was just like her daughter, a girl in the prime of her youth."

"Girls, who doesn't love beauty?"

"When other girls were still wearing long-sleeved clothes, because my family was better off and I pursued fashion, I started wearing a floral short skirt much earlier."

At this point, Fang Hongxia's voice paused, and tears streamed down her face.

"Later, I was targeted by a man. He tricked me, he raped me..."

Fang Hongxia covered her face, in unbearable pain.

It was only then that Fang Hong understood why, even though she had large breasts since childhood, Fang Hongxia still made her wear a chest binder.

She wasn't allowed to wear clothes that exposed her arms or legs, nor was she allowed to go out with boys, or even add them as friends or keep any contact information!

Because the Fang family was a scholarly family, they had considerable background and reputation in the local area.

But ever since Fang Hongxia's incident, the Fang family had become the local laughingstock.

Everyone thought it was Fang Hongxia who was shameless and dressed inappropriately, which was why she brought such misfortune upon herself.

To prevent her daughter from repeating her mistakes, Fang Hongxia was so strict with Fang Hong, and full of suspicion towards any boy who appeared around her.

After hearing this story, the netizens in the live stream all sighed.

"I just thought this woman seemed sick. She wasn't quite normal when she entered the Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic, especially her strong hostility towards Dr. Qin. Turns out she had such a tragic experience."

"Those who made her family a laughingstock aren't good people either. Why condemn the victim instead of the perpetrator?"

"Actually, Fang Hong's mother's idea isn't wrong. If a girl dresses too revealingly, it does indeed attract the attention of bad people more easily. But you can't make her wear long pants, long sleeves, and a chest binder all year round just because of that. That's too extreme."

"One can only say they are all unfortunate people. Every family has its own difficult scripture to read."

After learning the whole story, Qin Jiang couldn't help but sigh.

Although he could cure illnesses, Fang Hongxia's emotional knot still needed to be untied by herself.

"Let bygones be bygones. Life is like this; eight or nine out of ten things are unsatisfactory."

"Let's talk about your illness instead."

Qin Jiang took out a plastic bag, inflated it, and demonstrated to Fang Hongxia.

"This thing on the chest, both men and women have it, but men don't develop it, while women do."

"Therefore, although men can also suffer from breast cancer, the probability is much lower."

"For a normal woman, the incidence of breast cancer is 12%, and this probability is still increasing year by year."

"This probability is very high, and you are one of them."

Hearing Qin Jiang say this, the female fans in the live stream had already started trembling.

A 12% probability, from a probabilistic perspective, is really not low.

Especially since the metastasis rate of this disease is relatively high; once contracted, doctors basically recommend surgical removal, which greatly affects appearance.

Fang Hong asked from the side, "Dr. Qin, why did my mother get this disease?"

Qin Jiang held up two fingers.

"There are two main reasons."

"First, emotional stagnation; anger greatly stimulates the breasts."

"Second, external injury."

Qin Jiang picked up the inflated plastic bag in his hand and slowly squeezed it with force.

"When a person is young, breast cells are in an extremely active state,"

"In this situation, metabolism is fast, and even if there is cell damage, it can be repaired quickly."

"But as age increases, this cell repair ability will become worse and worse, and if subjected to strong external pressure or impact, breast cells will suffer irreversible damage."

"It's like a bunch of grapes; once crushed, they can never be restored."

Hearing Qin Jiang say this, Fang Hongxia and Fang Hong immediately understood.

No wonder Qin Jiang kept saying that if Fang Hong's chest binder wasn't removed, Fang Hong would also get breast cancer.

It turns out the consequences of damage caused by external pressure are so terrifying!

Fang Hong was very anxious.

Because before Fang Hongxia made Fang Hong wear a chest binder, she herself had worn one for a full thirty years!

"Dr. Qin, what should my mother do now? Is there still hope?"

Qin Jiang nodded.

"I told you all this because I hope you can realize the seriousness of the matter and not have the idea of restricting yourselves anymore in the future."

Qin Jiang pointed to the QR code on the table.

"Alright, the medical fee is a total of seventy-five thousand three hundred. Scan the code to pay."

"I'll do it, I'll do it."

Wu Yong had not found an opportunity to show off, and now hearing about payment, he quickly took out his phone to scan the code.

All along, due to her special experience, Fang Hongxia had actually been resistant to, or even disgusted by, Wu Yong.

If it hadn't been for the sake of 'face' back then, Fang Hongxia would not have agreed to recruit Wu Yong as a live-in son-in-law.

Now that Fang Hongxia had let go of her emotional knot, her heart was filled with gratitude for this husband who had silently taken care of her for thirty years.

"Thank you."

Hearing Fang Hongxia say this, Wu Yong was first stunned, then somewhat flustered.

"You... what are you saying 'thank you' for between husband and wife?"

Ding.

[Detected that the host was blunt with the patient, revealed the patient's hidden illness, and greatly helped the patient. Task completed]

[Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: Golden Right Hand (Upgraded Version)]

Seeing the reward given by the system, Qin Jiang, who was dispensing medicine, was immediately stunned.

Again?

The Golden Right Hand was one thing, but this was an upgraded version?

What the heck!

Just as Qin Jiang finished preparing the medicine, several boys' shouts came from outside.

"Doctor, Doctor, are you there?"

"Our stomachs hurt, can you come out and take a look?"

Qin Jiang walked out of the pharmacy.

He first handed the medicine to Fang Hongxia, instructing her to decoct and take one packet of medicine per day, and return for a follow-up examination in half a month.

After the family of three left, he looked at the boys who were shouting in pain.

"Who's seeing the doctor?"

The four boys scrambled.

"Me! See me first!"

"See me first, my stomach hurts like hell!"

"Wang Kai, are you trying to cut in front of me? Aren't you afraid I'll get angry!"

"Xu Liang, what's there to fight over when seeing a doctor? I'm indeed more serious than you!"

Seeing the four of them actually start arguing, Qin Jiang suddenly had a headache.

"No, what's there to argue about?"

"Having the energy to argue means the situation isn't particularly serious yet. That boy named Wang Kai, you go first."

Qin Jiang randomly pointed to one, signaling him to sit down first.
