Chapter 164: Using the Wrong Medicine

Thyme felt very sympathetic to the woman, and couldn't help but comfort: "Don't worry, the child will be fine." ”

The woman put away her suppressed emotions and felt better to speak out what was in her heart.

"I'm just this one child, and the child is his father...... I don't count on it, there has been no news for two years, and I don't know if something happened, the child is everything to me, if the child is gone, I don't want to live anymore. The woman's face was in pain.

Thyme wanted to say give it a try, but when she saw An Le's eyes, she finally stopped.

It was quiet inside the carriage.

Luckily, it was in town after a while.

It was already dark and many of the shops on the street were closed.

This town is not very big, and thinking of sending the Buddha to the west, Thyme still decided to send the woman to the medicine hall.

Fortunately, the medicine hall above the town was not closed, and the woman thanked her with a thousand thanks, and got out of the carriage with the child in her arms.

The woman didn't ask for the money that the coachman had given to the woman just now, but An Le still asked the coachman to put the money in the child's arms.

This time the woman did not refuse, in fact she really did not have much money on her to treat the child, although she knew that it was not good to accept other people's money, but now in order for the child to survive, the woman could not care so much.

Seeing the woman enter the medicine hall, Thyme asked the coachman to find an inn with confidence.

An Le asked for three rooms this time, one for each person.

Arrange the room, all that remains is to eat and rest.

Thyme chose a window seat and sat by the window at this time. There is a special feeling to look at the street outside.

Before sitting down, Thyme's eyes saw outside, and what to eat was arranged by Anle.

Suddenly, Thyme saw a woman who had started to hitchhike on the empty street with her child in her arms.

Thyme couldn't help frowning, knowing that they had only been away for less than a quarter of an hour, and even if it was a doctor, it would not be possible to treat the disease so quickly.

The result can be imagined, Thyme has already expected that the doctor in the medicine hall will not help to see the disease.

"The woman who hitchhiked came, and I think she must not have had a good time." Thyme looked outside and said with a sigh.

An Le also glanced at it, and suddenly frowned.

The woman had already passed by the window by this time, and An Le looked at the woman carefully. Then he lowered his head and thought about things.

By this time the gates were closed. The only way to get out is to wait until tomorrow morning, and there is only one inn in this town, and Thyme was thinking about this, when she saw the woman walking in with her child in her arms.

The woman's face was lonely and disappointed. His eyes were also red and swollen from crying.

Walk to the counter. The woman was going to ask for a room. The shopkeeper in the counter frowned and looked at the child, and combined with the woman's current appearance, he immediately asked, "Is your child sick?" ”

It was the first time the woman had stayed at the guest house. The shopkeeper nodded tremblingly when he asked.

The shopkeeper walked out from behind the counter, glanced at the child, looked at the child's pale face and closed eyes, thought for a while and said: "The guest room is gone, if you want to live, you can live in the firewood room, and I will charge you for the room for the ordinary room." ”

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he entered the counter again.

The shopkeeper said this without the slightest concealment, and there were not many people in the lobby, so naturally Thyme heard it very clearly.

The woman was not stupid, and when she saw the shopkeeper say this, she asked in a low voice, "Why do you want to charge me for my ordinary room?" ”

The shopkeeper snorted coldly: "Don't blame me for speaking straight, your child is so sick, who knows if you can survive tonight, if you let you live in an ordinary room, what if you get bad luck at that time, it is already merciful to live in a firewood room for you, if it weren't for watching you a woman holding a child, it would not be easy, otherwise I would have the exclusive right to drive you out." ”

Tears rolled in the woman's eyes, and finally Thyme couldn't help but stand up.

"Sister, come here." As soon as Thyme spoke, the shopkeeper looked over.

It's just that the attitude towards thyme is completely different.

Because what, it's not because of thyme and An Le dressing up, you can tell at a glance that they are from a big family.

When the woman was helpless, she heard the familiar voice of thyme and immediately looked at thyme.

The woman with the child in her arms walked up to Thyme.

"Madame, why are you here?"

The woman said as she said and her tears fell again.

Thyme sighed: "You can show me the child!" I also know a little bit about medicine. ”

Thyme didn't know whether it was right or wrong for her to do this, in short, when she saw the woman so helpless, she thought of the original owner in her heart, and when she fled with Xiahou Yuchen at that time.

A feeling of empathy came out of my heart.

The woman looked at Thyme with some surprise and hurriedly handed the child to Thyme.

"Sit down!" An Le said with the teacup in his hand.

The woman sat down and looked nervously at thyme.

Thyme held the child, and when she held it in her arms, the first feeling that the child gave Thyme was that the child was very thin.

The second is that the child is not very tall, and the child looks much shorter than children of the same age.

Because it was winter, the child was wrapped in a large cotton jacket, and the size of the cotton jacket may be the woman's.

The child was wrapped in a cotton coat, and only one head came out.

And the child's face was very pale at the moment.

Thyme began to check on the child.

First the eyes, then the mouth, pull the child's hand out of the quilt, and then carefully start the pulse.

The child's condition is more serious than Thyme imagined, maybe it is really like An Le said, the child is hopeless.

"When the child became ill yesterday, did there any abnormality?" Thyme asked, looking at the woman.

The woman said again and again: "Yesterday afternoon, the child kept saying that his stomach was uncomfortable, I didn't care about it at the time, the child used to have a lot of stomach pain, but after a while it didn't hurt, so I thought it should be the same as before, but last night I still rolled on the bed in pain, I was so frightened that I went to the next village overnight to invite the barefoot doctor to come over, and the barefoot doctor prescribed a few flavors of medicine to the child, I boiled it for the child and drank it, and the child became like this." ”

The woman's face was ugly, and what could she do but watch the child become like this little by little.

Thyme frowned, the child had a stomachache?

The place is not easy to check, and after looking left and right, Thyme wants to find a suitable place to put the child.

An Le seemed to know what Thyme was thinking, and immediately said, "Carry the child back to the room!" ”

Hearing An Le say this, Thyme knew that An Le supported her in doing so.

Nodding, Thyme picked up the child.

An Le knew that the shopkeeper would stop him, so he directly stepped forward and threw two pieces of broken silver to the shopkeeper, and then saw the shopkeeper watching a few people go upstairs with a smile.

When the woman went upstairs, she looked at the shopkeeper in fear.

Thyme put the child on the bed, and then opened the padded jacket, and the child was also wearing a padded jacket, and Thyme untied the child's padded jacket.

The child's belly is round, high and bulging, and it is hard to the touch.

"How many days has the child not pooped?" Thyme is worried that the child has too much intestinal stasis.

Without thinking, the woman blurted out, "I haven't been to the toilet for two days." ”

Thyme thought of something, it stands to reason that even if the child is this problem, it is impossible to kill him.

"Do you remember what medicine the doctor prescribed you?"

The woman remembered very well, because there was no pen at that time, so the woman wrote it directly in her head.

"Bupleurum chinensis, Banxia, white poria ......" The woman muttered seven or eight herbs, but there were basically no one or two flavors to cure children's diseases, and these medicines were all phlegm-stopping.

What kind of medicine is this? Thyme had already thought in her heart that the doctor who treated the child must be a quack doctor, or a doctor who was not skilled in medicine.

Where did you pick up the medicine?

The woman immediately said, "The barefoot doctor gave me the chaihu and the banxia, and I will go into the city to pick up the rest." ”

Thyme felt that the child should have taken the wrong medicine, the so-called right medicine, the medicine given by the doctor did not control the child's symptoms at all, and it is no wonder that the child became like this after taking the medicine.

Thyme didn't want to hide it from the woman, and said directly: "I don't have much confidence that I can cure your child, to be honest, I knew that your child was hopeless from the first time I saw your child, and now I just want to be sorry for my heart, if you want me to treat it, I don't dare to completely guarantee that the child can be cured." ”

The woman had heard too much about the child's death, so she was so excited that she could not help when she heard thyme say that she could give it a try.

"Madam, you are the merciful Guanyin, the child can meet you is his blessing, Madame just let go of the healing, anything happens to the child, I don't blame Madame."

The woman looked at Thyme with gratitude and said seriously.

An Le looked at the woman: "You sit there and rest first, she doesn't like others watching when she is sick, so she is uncomfortable." ”

The woman's hope is all in thyme, and now it is naturally thyme that they are whatever they say, and there is room for refutation.

Nodding, the woman stepped aside and sat down on the stool, but it looked like pins and needles.

Thyme didn't want to waste time, like feeding the child space stream water, and then rubbing the child's belly. The child didn't get any better at all.

Thyme is decadent. While rubbing the child's abdomen, he thought about what medicine to use.

The barefoot doctor used the medicine wrongly, which means that the child may be so serious because of the medicine, and thyme has never encountered such a thing, and he doesn't know how to do it.

An Le looked at thyme worriedly beside him.

And the woman looked at the thyme from time to time.

Time passed little by little, the child still did not improve a little, and thyme stopped the movements of his hands.

Instead, he walked directly to the woman, recalling the prescription in his mind, as if the bamboo slip had recorded some prescription for this regard.

It's just that Thyme can't think of anything. (To be continued......)
