Chapter 20: Carbuncles

The two ships went on the opposite side of the road after a day of travel, and the Otani clan accelerated the trip because he wanted to rush back to the capital for Laba, but the Gu clan was not in a hurry, drinking tea, playing cards, sitting and watching the clouds rise and fall, and the life was leisurely and comfortable.

No one wants to take Hua Qianyue with this kind of thing now, the reason is that her playing skills are too good, a deck of cards out of a few cards, and a few, probably in which person's hand, the calculation is clear.

Everyone said: "Playing cards is just for fun, passing the time, you are good at arranging the general's formation, marching and fighting, what is the meaning."

If you don't fight, don't fight, drink tea, tell stories to Hua Qianshu, think about the winery, and before you know it, you will be back in Willow Creek Town in two days.

Hua Qianyue stood on the deck and looked at the reeds on the shore in a daze, and suddenly she found that there was something on the side of the reeds that rose and fell with the river.

Hua Qianyue hurriedly called the boatman to take the two guards to put down the boat and row towards the reeds, and the boat rowed back after a while.

Hua Qianyue looked at the boat, and there was no one else except the boatman or the nursery.

"Dead of gas?" Hua Qianyue asked.

There is no one nearby, it is impossible to fall from the water here, then it is floating down from the upstream, at least for one day, such a cold weather in the river for a day is only afraid that it will run out of gas.

The shipwright and the nurse looked at each other and hesitated: "There is still a breath of air, it seems that I am afraid that I will not be able to save it......"

Without waiting for Hua Qianyue to finish speaking, she interrupted: "Still alive?" Then go and bring someone here. Then he said, "I'd better go with you." ”

The boatman hesitated, "I think it's better to forget it...... It's not that we're ruthless, it's really that the little girl is hopeless, I think it's better to have more than one thing. ”

The nurse also said: "We all know that Miss is kind-hearted, and that child doesn't know what kind of child it is, and if he can't save it, it's small, and if he gets into a lawsuit for this, it will be troublesome."

yes, yes, the others nodded in agreement.

Hua Qianyue had a hint of hesitation, so forget it? Suddenly, there was a taste of whether the old lady fell down in the future to help or not...... In the end, he gritted his teeth and said: "Since you have encountered the truth that you don't leave it alone, and you accidentally choke people to death after eating, will you not eat?" You don't have to think too much about it, and I'll take care of what happened. ”

Hua Qianyue has a new understanding of life since she was reborn, and she feels that she should not give up even if she has only a glimmer of hope.

Everyone blushed when they heard this: "In this case, I will go and bring people back, Miss, you are not afraid, what are we afraid of?" ”

Hua Qianyue sat at the stern of the boat, the boatman stabilized the hull, and the two guards reached the plank held by the little girl and dragged the board onto the boat, the person was already frozen and unconscious, but the two arms were still firmly holding the plank, and the knuckles of the knuckles were white with the edge of the plank. It must have been because she was afraid that she would lose consciousness and slide into the river so hard to pick at the plank, and the guard broke her fingers one by one to remove the plank, and the hand was still in a bent posture, seeing that the people on the boat were silently crying, Hua Qianyue was very glad that she finally decided to save her.

The boat quickly rowed back again, and a little girl who was frozen in the courtyard boarded the deck, and Lan Xiang Helu didn't wait for Hua Qianyue to take the person and put it in their house.

When Hua Qianyue passed by in a small boat, they had already prepared hot water for bathing.

After soaking three large jars of hot water, the little girl's body warmed up, poured two bowls of medicine and placed her on Lan Xiang's bed.

It wasn't until now that Hua Qianyue had time to take a closer look at this little girl, only to see that she was eight or nine years old, with a thin little face and pointed chin, and she looked malnourished at first glance.

The little girl lay like this for a day, and she did not wake up until the evening when the painting boat docked at the ferry.

Hua Qianyue was anxious, her body temperature, heartbeat, and breathing were normal, why didn't she wake up? Subconsciously don't want to wake up? If you don't have a head injury, you won't be in a vegetative state if you soak in water, right?

I didn't eat Qianyue's dinner well, thinking about how to wake her up.

Gu is also very anxious, Yue'er, this child is sometimes like an adult, not only does not need you to worry about her, but also helps you arrange things properly, and sometimes she is more willful than a child. What do you do when you save someone well, it's not that it's bad to save people, it's just that before saving people, you have to think about whether the person can be saved or not, and what if you don't save them? Just throw it into the river? …… You have to think about your own safety before doing good deeds, right? ……

Thinking about complaining about those boatmen's nurseries, Yue'er is a child who doesn't know the Tao here, don't they adults know either? Also persuade a little ...... Is....... For a while, I thought that Yue'er was the master, they were servants, and they didn't dare to disobey the master's orders. For a while, I blamed myself, what kind of cards to play, otherwise...... Alas! Yue'er's bullish temper is afraid that she may not be able to move her, but the only way to do this is to ask the Bodhisattva for protection. Thinking of this, he went into the ear room and burned a few pillars of incense for the Bodhisattva.

Hua Qianyue didn't sleep well all night, she was thinking about how to wake up in her dreams, and she was a little groggy when she got up the next day.

The happy Gu burned a few pillars of incense to the Bodhisattva and thanked the Bodhisattva for his blessing.

Hua Qianyue found that she was happy and too early, the little girl just opened her eyes and looked, and fell asleep again before she had time to ask, and she also started a fever, Lan Xianghe couldn't untie her clothes and kept rubbing her body with soju to cool her down, and the effect was not very good.

Hua Qianyue wanted to see the sample, but she was afraid that she would not be able to escape from the pneumonia, so she had to find the old doctor on the ship again.

The old doctor stroked his long beard and turned his face solemn, and after a while, he pondered Hua Qianyue and said, "Let me tell you the truth, this girl looks like a carbuncle in the lungs, and the old man is only shallow in learning, and I am afraid that she is powerless......"

Before the words fell, Qianyue blurted out: "How can you be powerless, wouldn't it be good to prescribe more anti-inflammatory and eat for three or five days." ”

Anti-inflammatory? Can you get a carbuncle after three or five days?

Is there such a medicine?

"Where is this medicine, can you tell the little old man?" The old doctor said excitedly, staring at Hua Qianyue with bright eyes.

You must know that pneumonia cannot be said to be an incurable disease in ancient times, it is also a very difficult disease, not a little careful will kill people in minutes, and suddenly I heard that there is a medicine that can cure the carbuncle in three or five days, how can it not be exciting, and this person is still a doctor.

Hua Qianyue then remembered that there was no inflammation in ancient times, and there were no anti-inflammatory drugs such as antibiotics, and scratched her head irritably, just now she said that there was such a medicine, and immediately said that there was actually none, and she really didn't know how to explain it to this happy old man.

It's hard to say, I have to say, who let himself not study pharmacy in college in his previous life.

I had to bite the bullet and say to the old doctor: "I don't understand medical science, but last time I had a fever, the doctor prescribed me dandelion, banyan root, bitter dice, and skullcap, which are said to be anti-inflammatory, and it will be good in only three or five days.

Sure enough, the old doctor couldn't help but be disappointed when he heard this: "The anti-inflammatory drugs you are talking about are these ordinary herbs that clear away heat and remove fire?" ”

I knew that this would be the result, but when I really heard this, Hua Qianyue couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Seeing that Hua Qianyue was a little embarrassed, the old doctor took the initiative and said: "I think it's better to decoct another dose according to the previous recipe, and then you order the boat to drive faster and strive to arrive in Liuxi Town early in the afternoon, the town's doctor Gu has some experience with carbuncles, if this girl has the interest of creation, she may still be saved." ”

If you can't take medicine in modern times, a few bottles of saline will be fine, there were no antibiotics such as cephalosporin and penicillin in ancient times, and the mortality rate of pneumonia is still quite high, and now you can only be a dead horse doctor.

Here, the painting boat is speeding up the trip according to the queue of people, and Lanxiang Helu continues to wipe her body and cool down.

On the day of departure, Gu sent a letter, saying that he could arrive tonight. After lunch, Mrs. Min went to the ferry early in a carriage and waited, and she was sitting on the Luohan bed talking to Mama Wang. I heard a little girl report outside: "Mrs. and the young master are back." ”

Old Madam Min said curiously: "Why is it so early?" It's a shame that the carriage was sent early, otherwise he would still be standing on the dock to blow the wind."

Mama Wang smiled: "Otherwise, as the old saying goes, 'there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure'." ”

Hearing this, everyone in the room laughed.

Mrs. Min couldn't sit still, and said to Mama Wang: "I don't know if my good grandson has gained weight and lost weight...... Let's take a look. As she spoke, she was about to get off the Luohan bed, and Mama Wang hurriedly stepped forward and helped the little girl to the left and right.

In the upper room, the mother-in-law came and went to pack up the cage utensils, and the Gu family saw that the old lady Min came over to greet her.

Old Madam Min looked at the shuttle crowd and didn't see Hua Qianyue and Hua Qianshu and asked, "Why don't you see Yue'er and Xiaoshu?" ”

Gu said: "Xiaoshu got a few conch shells in Mingzhou, so he went to find Ziming as soon as his feet touched the ground." ”

Thinking of his son's anxious appearance, Gu couldn't bear it, and his eyes were crooked.

"As for Yue'er...... Gu said, "I went to the Gu Family Medical Center......
