Chapter 62: The Controversy over the Etiology
When the mother-in-law saw that the child had a fever again, she immediately got busy and urged her son to go to the hospital quickly. Xinxin and Mu Nan felt that the temperature was not particularly high, and they were a little hesitant, after all, after running to the hospital once, the child was also quite tormented, and it was night, so it might be more troublesome to freeze it again. And thinking of yesterday's blood drawing, Mu Nan's heart was even more reluctant. But the mother-in-law urged her vigorously, for fear of delaying the treatment.
Xinxin said: "The temperature was higher than this last night, and I finally went to the hospital, and the doctor said that it was no big deal, just take some medicine." Why don't we take the medicine and take a look first. It's hard to find a car right now. ”
The mother-in-law pursed her lips and said unhappily: "The child at home is sick, and your brother and sister-in-law can take a motorcycle to the hospital." The child's illness can't be delayed, my heart has been beating, you better send it quickly. ”
Mu Nan said: "I also checked on the Internet today, and it is normal for children to have a fever that recurs occasionally, as long as it is not a high fever, it should not be a big problem." ”
The mother-in-law was even more unkind to her son, and he said: "Don't talk to me, it's important to find a car to send the child." You had a fever when you were a child, and it wasn't me and your dad who carried you to the countryside that time, and it took dozens of miles back and forth. ”
Mu Nan explained helplessly: "It's not that we are too troublesome, aren't we afraid of tossing the child." I went and had blood tests and various examinations, which made the child very uncomfortable. Besides, the doctor said yesterday that it was fine. ”
The mother-in-law still insisted, Xinxin slapped her forehead and said, "By the way, isn't Zhang Yuan a nurse?" It's still obstetrics and gynecology, she should know everything about children, ask her! As he spoke, he called Zhang Yuan. Zhang Yuan is also a warm-hearted person, answered Xinxin's call, and actually ran over with a big belly.
Xinxin said gratefully, "Really, why are you still here?" Just say no on the phone? ”
Zhang Yuan said: "Just listening to you, I can't be sure, after all, it's not my major, just look at me." With that, he followed Xinxin to see the child.
The family surrounded Zhang Yuan and the child, Zhang Yuan reached out and touched the child's fleshy little chin, and said with a smile: "Isn't this quite spiritual?" It's okay! ”
Xinxin said: "But it's a little burnt!" ”
The mother-in-law also said, "That is, the head is hot." ”
Zhang Yuan's hand had already reached the child's neck, and he tried it and said, "It's not a big problem." It's not accurate to touch the forehead, it's more accurate here in the neck, and there are arteries here. Well...... The temperature is not too high. ”
Mu Nan said on the side: "I just measured 37 degrees 2. ”
Zhang Yuan said: "If the fever of a child does not exceed 39 degrees, there is no need to take fever-reducing medicine. This is actually a way for children to self-regulate, take some medicine if they are willing to take some medicine, and if they don't eat for a few days, they will be fine. But ......" she paused suddenly.
The whole family stared at her face, not knowing what was going on.
I saw Zhang Yuan untie the small quilt that wrapped the child three or two times, and said with a smile: "Your family covers the child too thickly, so many layers, don't say that he is really a little hot, even if it is not hot, it is also hot." Children are not afraid to be cold, they are afraid to cover it. The disease that comes out of the cold is easy to treat, but the disease that comes out is not easy to treat. ”
Xinxin glanced at her mother-in-law dissatisfied, the child never left her hand when she came back, and it was naturally her handwriting to cover it so thickly. But because Zhang Yuan was still there, she had to save some face for the old lady, so Xinxin didn't say anything.
Zhang Yuan asked if there was any medicine prescribed by the doctor yesterday, and Xinxin said that there was, so Zhang Yuan asked them to continue to eat on time and pay attention at any time.
After Zhang Yuan left, the mother-in-law still felt that the child was sick and couldn't freeze, so she picked up the small quilt that had just been removed by Zhang Yuan and covered the child again. Xinxin sent Zhang Yuan back, saw it, hurriedly opened it, and complained to her mother-in-law: "I just said don't cover it too thickly, Mom, why did you cover it again." ”
Mu Nan also said to her mother-in-law: "Mom, you have wrapped too much for the child. ”
The mother-in-law was very aggrieved: "Yesterday you thought I froze the child, and today it is too hot again." I've got you covered. ”
Xinxin said: "Yesterday, you opened all the windows and didn't cover the child with a quilt, isn't it frozen?" Or can you get a fever at night? Today, I built several more layers, so what is it if it is not hot? It's cold for a while and hot for a while, and adults can't stand it, let alone children? ”
The mother-in-law said angrily: "The child has a fever, that's what you went back to grandma's house to toss, what does it have to do with not being able to open the window?" ”
Xinxin also got angry and said: "The child's grandmother's house is not out of town, a total of forty minutes by car, and the child is not like you who came from thousands of miles away, and will you not adapt to the water and soil?" ”
The mother-in-law was very determined and said, "Why not? Mu Nan's grandmother's house and we are in the same village, they got sick when they were young, and they got sick as soon as they came home. Mu Nan, did you say? ”
Mu Nan was stunned for a moment, and replied truthfully: "We did have this situation when we were children. ”
The mother-in-law said proudly, "How is it?" Old man's words, that's right! It's better for the child's grandmother's house to go back less! ”
Mu Nan said: "The child is still young, on such a cold day, it may not be good to toss back and forth all the time, or we won't go back this winter." ”
Xinxin originally wanted to listen to her grandmother's words, only for her mother-in-law, and endured Mu Nan first, but now when she heard Mu Nan say this, where can she still bear it, and refused: "I can't go back to my mother's house?" What does it mean to get sick when you go back to your grandmother's house? Your sister took the child back to your house for the winter vacation and summer vacation every year, why are you not afraid that the child will get sick? ”
One sentence blocked Mu Nan and her mother-in-law without words. Mu Nan's sister is a rural teacher, and she often takes her children back to her parents' house during winter and summer vacations, and she lives for at least ten days and half a month. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not very compatible, so they are especially willing to stay with the girl for a few more days. Mu Nan's sisters-in-law don't have any opinions, anyway, the family is separated, and the sister-in-law doesn't need them to serve when she comes, they just need to cook a few good dishes every once in a while and ask the sister-in-law to take the child over for a meal. And usually their children often go to live with Sister Mu Nan when they go to school, so this can be regarded as a courtesy. Because this has become a common practice, my mother-in-law has always taken it for granted, completely forgetting that she is also a grandmother's house. Now that Xinxin was moved out to talk about it, she couldn't speak for a while, so she had to throw her hands out.
Xinxin squinted her eyes and glanced at her mother-in-law's back, and said to Mu Nan with a depressed face: "When I just went out, Zhang Yuan also said that the child is so young, there is no need to go to the hospital all the time. Ask the elderly at home for common diseases, and they can resist it by taking some medicine. I regretted dying when I heard it, and we shouldn't have tossed the child yesterday, and when I remembered that the child had a pricking in his hand, I felt that the child was wronged. My mother said at the time that there was no need to go, there was a standing medicine at home, so I would eat and see it first. It's all your fault, I have to go! ”
Mu Nan also felt that she was a little impatient when she heard this, and let the child suffer a lot in vain, so she said, "Isn't it okay to blame me?" At that time, I also listened to my mother, and I felt that I had no bottom in my heart. ”
Xinxin listened and threw the small quilt that was folding in her hand on the bed, and said angrily: "You said that your mother also claims to be a person who has seen several children, why don't you even know how to deal with the situation of a child's headache and brain fever?" At that time, when Zhang Yuan said that I had asked the elderly in my family in advance, I was embarrassed to tell them that our family was different from other people's families, and the elderly were less determined than us, so they would urge them to go to the hospital! ”
Mu Nan saw that Xinxin was about to fire again, and said, "It's not early, you go to sleep", and hurriedly flashed. Xinxin was holding back her anger and wanted to rush at Mu Nan, but she was recognized by Mu Nan as soon as she started, and she escaped quickly, there was no way, she had to press her anger temporarily, and leave it for the next time she has the opportunity to settle the old and new accounts together.
