Seeing that Grandpa refused without thinking, Youguang replied,
"It's fine if you don't." She could do it herself anyway. "So when will the needles be ready?"
"In about a month."
"Can you make it quick? How about a week."
"You're not in a hurry to learn. Why do you need the needles so quickly?" Xia Rong didn't know whether to laugh or cry at her granddaughter's impatience.
"Then two weeks. Is that okay?"
Youguang was indeed anxious.
Her grandfather's refusal to teach her acupuncture was to be expected.
Learning acupuncture from him was not her ultimate goal. Getting the golden needles was.
She had seen Little Wangyue's case. The child was indeed seriously injured.
If acupuncture treatment was not administered in addition to the medical treatment as soon as possible, the child would probably never be able to walk again. It will be exactly like what the Western doctors had advised.
Timing is critical in Chinese medicine.
If the timing was right, anything was possible.
