Chapter 8: The Strange Illness of the Second Grandmother
Xue Fei'er was very familiar with the county lieutenant's family, and casually asked the nurse: "Who is crying?" ”
The nurse opened the door and glanced at it, and said in a low voice: "It's the second grandmother's maid, and the second grandmother is very sick." Alas......"
"Oh? What kind of disease? ”
"I don't know, Jishitang's Doctor Qian has seen my grandmother several times, but it has no effect, so I sent it to Gedong Mansion to find other famous doctors, and Doctor Qian accompanied me. Looking at it now, I'm afraid people won't be ......."
"Doctor Qian can't see it well, if you want to go to Fucheng to see it, then it's not light, right?"
"But it's not, the eldest grandmother gave birth to four daughters in a row, and she didn't give birth to a son, and she is also old, so our lord married the current second grandmother, and my grandmother is really angry, and she gave birth to a son to our lord when she got married. When I was so happy that I was in love, I didn't expect that I would be sick like this in a blink of an eye. Alas! ”
Du Wenhao asked casually: "What's the disease?" Can you tell me about it? ”
"Well, a few days ago, the second grandmother had a sore on her right thigh, and after Doctor Qian saw it, he prescribed a medicated dress. After a few days, the second grandmother we went to the city to incense, it is estimated that the second grandmother suffered from the wind and cold on the way to and from home, and when she returned home, she had a fever all over her body that night, and her body was as hot as a stove. Doctor Qian came to see her twice, but it was still not good, and grandma began to talk nonsense in a groggy manner. Doctor Qian was in a hurry, and he ran here for a few days, and the prescription was changed several times. It's okay not to change it, but as soon as the prescription is changed, my grandmother is even more hot all over my body, and Qian Shenmei has tried his best to reduce the fever, and in the end, his eyes are white, he has more air in and less air out, and he doesn't know what to do. Alas! Poor ......."
Du Wenhao has been listening attentively, wondering what kind of disease this is.
At this time, I heard a voice from the courtyard: "Lord County Lieutenant, grandma's illness, alas, I'm afraid I can't survive tonight, forgive the old man, I can't save grandma, I'm really ashamed." ”
A deep voice said gloomily: "The famous doctors in Fucheng can't do anything, how can they blame you, after all, this is also her life......"
"Yes! Then the old man will take his leave! ”
"Congratulations to the Divine Doctor!"
"Don't dare to be a ......"
Then I heard someone walking out. Du Wenhao leaned slightly, looked through the crack in the door opened by the nurse just now, and saw an ox cart parked in the courtyard a few steps away, and the curtain in front of the car had been lifted, revealing a young woman lying in the snow-white futon inside, with her hair scattered on the pillow, her big eyes open, looking blankly at the ceiling, and her body twitching from time to time.
There was a strong man standing next to the car, with a black face and an official robe, looking at the woman in the car with a sad expression, this person was Pang Jinghui, the county magistrate of Dongda County.
An old man in a white robe was walking out dejectedly, this person was a well-known miracle doctor in Dongda County, who didn't accept money.
At this time, there was a cry in the backyard, and an old lady with graceful and luxurious white hair, supported by a middle-aged noblewoman, two young women and a maid, staggered out of the moon gate in the backyard with each other, and there was a little girl of three or four years old who was dragging two snots beside the noblewoman, her big eyes flashed and she didn't know what was going on, one little hand was in her mouth, and the other little hand was holding the sleeve of the noblewoman, and followed out.
The old lady looked straight ahead, groped forward with one hand, and stumbled forward with the support of everyone, shouting: "Yu'er! How's Yu'er? ”
Lieutenant Pang stepped forward and hugged Pang's mother: "Mother, your eyes are not good, why did you come out." ”
This old lady is Pang County's mother, Pang County's mother, the middle-aged lady is Pang County's original wife Liu, the two young women are Pang County's second daughter and third daughter, and the little girl with two snots is the fourth daughter. The eldest daughter is already out of marriage.
Pang Mu looked around blankly, and grabbed the hand of the county lieutenant Pang: "Let me ask you!" How is Yu'er? ”
"The famous doctors in Fucheng have all seen it, and they all say the same as Doctor Qian's statement, they all say ......, and say that Yu'er's illness is ......, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to survive tonight......"
"What......?" Pang Mu asked sideways. In addition to her bad eyes, this Pang Mu also has behind her ears and can't hear clearly.
"Yu'er can't do it!" Lieutenant Pang leaned into his mother's ear and said loudly.
Pang Mu heard it clearly, her body trembled, her old tears were rampant, and she groped her way forward: "Where is Yu'er?" Help me through! ”
"Mother, slow down, I'll help you over." The rich middle-aged woman next to her wept as she helped her to the ox cart. The old woman groped and touched the face of the young woman who was lying, although the old woman could not see clearly, but her hand felt that her daughter-in-law's eyes were wide open, and her snort was very weak.
This little concubine Yu'er is a distant relative of Pang's mother, although the family is poor, but in the early years, Yu'er's family was kind to Pang's mother's family, so they got closer. It happened that Pang's mother's daughter-in-law Liu was destined to have no children, and gave birth to four daughters in a row, but she didn't give birth to a son. Yu'er was also angry, and gave birth to a son to their Qian family when she entered the door. The incense continues, and Pang Mu is overjoyed, so she is very fond of this jade. Yu'er suddenly fell seriously ill. Pang Mu was so anxious that when she heard that Yu'er was no longer good, she immediately burst into tears.
When the little girl and the four daughters heard that their grandmother was crying, they didn't care what was going on, and they cried loudly with their mouths shutting their mouths. For a while, the yard was in chaos.
Pang Countywei's original wife, Liu, wiped her tears and instructed the maid next to her: "Go, ask the nurse to bring the child and see her mother." ”
The maid cried and agreed, and the little broken step up the steps came this way, and the nurse had heard this in the house, so she hurriedly picked up the young master who was not yet one year old from the small bed, pulled the door out, went down the steps, came to the ox cart, and handed it to Liu.
Liu put the child next to Yu'er, who no longer knew what was going on, and looked blankly at the roof of the ox cart. The boy burst into tears, and the cry was terrible.
The money that had already walked to the gate of the courtyard was not collected, and when he heard the cry, he stood again, shook his head, stomped his feet, and turned around and walked back: "Lord County Lieutenant, I will take a look at the illness of the second grandmother." ”
"Well, it's hard work! Mother, let me go, the doctor will also treat Yu'er. ”
"Watching a play?" The old lady didn't hear clearly, stomped her feet, and shouted hysterically: "He cured Yu'er like this, and he still wants to watch the drama and see the excitement?" And there is no royal law anymore! ”
"Mother! It's not a play, it's a doctor! ”
"Look? A good daughter-in-law has already seen it like this, what else is there to look at! ”
"Yes, yes!" The county lieutenant didn't dare to talk back to his mother, so he glanced at Liu, and Liu understood, and wept and said: "Mother, let Doctor Qian take a look again, Yu'er can't wake up, and I'm afraid it won't work if I don't treat it again." ”
"Punishment and punishment? Right, right! If you don't accept this money, what can you say about curing diseases like gods, and the patients he treats, even Hades and Laozi dare not accept them? How can you cure Yu'er like this? You can't do it if you have to punish the crime! Son, hurry up and arrest this surnamed Qian! ”
It's very embarrassing to stand there without collecting money.
"Mother, it's not about curing crimes, it's about ......, alas, let Doctor Qian treat Yu'er."
"Molestation? He still dares to take the opportunity to tease Yu'er? He's not human! Oh my God......! Pang Mu stomped her feet and cried.
If you don't take the money, your old face is flushed, and you can't cry or laugh.
Pang County Lieutenant glanced at Liu and the maids, Liu and the maids hurriedly helped Pang Mu to retreat aside, and the nurse also picked up the child and retreated to the side.
The two little maids stepped forward and gently lifted the corner of the quilt, and took out the second grandmother's wrist as white as frost from the inside and put it on the snow-white quilt.
Qian Bu was ashamed, stepped forward, stretched out three fingers and gently put them on Yu'er's wrist, closed his eyes and thought. After a while, let go, shook his head, walked to the other side, took the pulse, and stared for a long time, sighed: "The second grandmother's illness is really strange, the first diagnosis, grandma has a high fever and bad wind, dry mouth, constipation, yellow urine, thin yellow tongue, as a disease of wind and heat, but the pulse is flooded, this pulse is not right, and the old man didn't care too much at the time, with gardenia, skullcap, honeysuckle, forsythia and other cold to relieve the table, Xuan lung heat." After using this formula, although the high fever decreased slightly, there was cold limbs, hypochondria pain, faint speech, pale red tongue, yellow greasy, and slippery pulse, which was not evidence of wind and heat at all. At this point, people are at a loss. After thinking about it again and again, I switched to using raw rehmannia root, buffalo horn, Coptis chuanchuanensis, and Xuan ginseng to reduce the distemper and poison drink. ”
Speaking of this, Yu'er suddenly became short of breath and sweat on her forehead. The county lieutenant Pang and the county lieutenant hurriedly instructed the maid to uncover the quilt on Yu'er's body.
The money was not collected, and he continued to say: "With this prescription, the second grandmother became more seriously ill, and was sent to Fucheng, and the famous doctors in Fucheng considered it again and again, and also said that the prescription before the decay was not a big mistake, but they were also at a loss about the result of the wrong medicine. At this time, the second grandmother's whole body is full of heat, her sweating limbs are cold, her breath is low, her tongue is like a mirror, her mouth and tongue are raw, her tongue is red, her pulse is thin, and she is in a coma and vomit. Some people switched to rhubarb, coptis, and skullcap laxative heart soup, but the second grandmother still had no effect. Alas! The doctors are in a hurry. ”
