Chapter 265: Symptoms of a Strange Disease
It turned out that Xiaolan served Rose and came back to return the empty bowl after drinking ginger syrup, and when she saw Hua Mian walking out of the kitchen, she stepped forward to ask.
"I want to go to the palace for a walk", Hua Mian also replied directly.
Xiaolan put the bowl in her hand on the table beside her, and jumped over to hold Hua Mian's arm, "I'll accompany Sister Hua Mian."
"Is it okay if you don't go back to work?"
"It's okay, Sister Rose drank ginger syrup and just fell asleep, and when I came to return the bowl, she told me to thank Sister Huamian well, and I'm okay now, I can lead the way for my sister and talk to my sister"
Seeing that someone volunteered to be a guide for Huamian, Xiao Jin was also a lot more relieved, and picked up the empty bowl sent by Xiaolan to the side to clean it.
Xiaolan took Huamian out of the palace affectionately, and Huamian entered the palace for half a month, except for the distance from the palace to the imperial dining room and the road he walked when entering the palace, he had never been to other areas.
The two of them walked slowly along the outer wall of the palace in the opposite direction to the imperial dining room, and the sunlight shrouded the figures of the two of them in the inky shadows cast on the ground by the tall palace walls.
"Xiaolan, just now you said that Miss Rose began to have such symptoms a few years ago?" ,Anyway, it's boring to walk like this.,Huamian casually asked about Rose.。
Who would have thought that when it came to the topic of this disease, Xiaolan suddenly became mysterious, leaned in the direction of Huamian, and said: "Sister, please be quiet when you mention this disease outside, it is very taboo to talk about this matter in the palace."
Isn't it the flu? Is it because you are afraid of being infected? Yes, after all, there is no vaccine or anything like that in this world, if you get sick, the average poor family will ask the church for help and get some medicine charms that I don't know if they will really work, while those who are a little rich will usually go to the hospital to see a doctor, and those who have more financial resources will hire doctors and pharmacists at home, such as those in Sikong Fu.
It is said that Sikong Nan, the eighth young master in Sikong Mansion, is known as Yan Jun as a wonderful hand among the people, and one person can take care of the work of pharmacists and doctors, and even the pharmacists and doctors in Sikong's family have been mentioned by him, but he doctors all depend on their mood, if they want to seek medical treatment from him but can't get into his eyes, even if the family background is big, it is useless.
"Sister Rose's disease has always been in the palace, and only women can get it"
"Only girls can get it?" Huamian has never heard of any kind of cold that only girls get.,Except for a few special diseases.,Usually this kind of thing is not gender-picking.。
"Everyone is fine in the first two years of entering the palace, I have never heard of this stage of the palace people with this disease, about three to five years later, some people will faintly show signs of illness, at first only in the winter will cough, this stage of the disease only appears in winter, does not affect the work on weekdays"
"In the next two years, the onset will be earlier, in the fall, in the summer... As soon as the disease begins to occur in early autumn, the person will vomit blood, and gradually the whole body will be weak and unable to get out of bed, and the person will be gone by the next spring."
Huamian listened to Xiaolan like an infectious disease with an incubation period and a long period, and it can only be transmitted to girls.
"Since there are many people who are sick, haven't they looked for a cure? That...", although Hua Mian wanted to say the title of Concubine Jing's younger brother, she felt that she was too middle two to shout: "That Young Master Sikong Nan, it stands to reason that he will help his sister, right?" ”
