Chapter 9: The Unheated North
How do you explain it?
Planted on Doctor Zhou? No, if it spreads, others will ask Doctor Zhou for advice, it will bring him trouble.
When Lin Yu'an was thinking about something, she subconsciously pursed her lips, and the red eyes that she had just cried just now made her look like she was scared.
The doctor opposite was stunned.
He touched his face, although he didn't look handsome, but he was also a righteous and upright Chinese face, why did he scare the little girl?
Lin Ruochen hurriedly hugged his sister tightly, "Doctor Mu, my sister is still young." ”
"Uh...... Sorry, I was too eager. Doctor Mu immediately apologized, "Miss Lin, I'm sorry, because people in our army are often injured, so I heard that there is such a treatment, so I will be so anxious." ”
Lin Yu'an bit his lip and said, "I, I heard from the traveling merchants, and they said they had seen it somewhere else." ”
This answer surprised both Dr. Mu and Lin Ruochen, but after thinking about it carefully, they felt that this was quite reasonable.
The traveling merchants have seen or heard a lot of things in the north and south, so it is not strange to tell the little girl something interesting.
"What do they say?"
Doctor Mu took a step forward anxiously, and even wanted to grab Lin Yu'an's hand.
"Doctor Mu, please drink tea."
He Da handed a cup of tea to Dr. Mu in time and stopped between him and his own young lady.
"Uh...... Good tea. Doctor Mu, who reacted, immediately took two steps back, took the tea and took a sip to hide the embarrassment just now.
Lin Ruochen gently stroked his sister's head and said softly, "An An, can you tell Dr. Mu what those wandering merchants said?" ”
Lin Yu'an looked at them in a daze, then blinked his eyes, put on a timid look, and whispered about the approximate use of splints and plasters.
The reason why I say probably, is because she herself doesn't know very well.
After hearing this, Doctor Mu fell into deep thought, and it didn't take long for him to clap his hands happily, "Wonderful, wonderful, with these two methods, at least you can ensure that you won't cause secondary damage due to slight movement." ”
He looked at Lin Ruochen with burning eyes.
"Lin Gongzi, would you like to give it a try? This method is the most suitable for you. ”
He Da's face became a little ugly after hearing this.
Isn't this a test on the injuries of their young master? The young master is not easy to speak, so let him say this refusal.
But before He Da could say anything, Lin Ruochen agreed, "My injuries will be handed over to Dr. Mu, but whether to use a splint or a stone... Paste? Do you already know what that plaster is? ”
Doctor Mu was very relieved to hear him agree so easily, he was a decisive person who could do great things.
It seems that it is a good thing for the little boy to make friends with him.
"Among the medicinal herbs we use, there is indeed a gypsum, I don't know if it is it, and it will take some time to study this, so we use a splint first."
"Okay, Uncle He, please help Dr. Mu prepare the plank."
"Yes."
He Da saw that the young master had already responded to this matter, so he did not object anymore.
Lin Ruochen was afraid that the next treatment would scare her sister, so she asked the nurse to take her back to the room to rest.
After most of the day's tossing, Lin Yu'an was indeed tired, and under Qinghe's service, she tossed and slept for half an hour before deciding to get up.
It was too cold for her to sleep.
Unheated northern winters are terrible.
There is not even a fire pit that the northern friends are proud of, so they can only burn a charcoal stove in the house, and the cover is only a linen quilt stuffed with catkins.
Since the Lin family is still wealthy, there is also a leather quilt made of sheepskin.
It's just that Lin Yu'an's body is too weak, even with these, she will still be cold.
"Qinghe."
Qing He, who was napping next to him, hurriedly walked over, "Miss, are you awake?" Do you want to drink saliva? ”
"Okay."
Although it is a bit inhumane to let a ten-year-old girl serve her, this is ancient times, and she can only follow the local customs and not be too unconventional.
But what he can do by himself, Lin Yu'an will handle it by himself.
took a sip of warm water and drank it, and finally had a little warmth on his body, Lin Yu'an sat by the charcoal stove with a cup in his hand while warming his hands and thinking about things.
It's not going to be cold like this.
Lin Yu'an was originally a native of the south and had been living in a city near the sea in the south of China.
I read such a passage on the Internet before, saying that in fact, the winter in the south is colder than in the north, because the dry and cold in the north is a physical attack, and it can be easily defended by wearing a few more clothes; But the clammy cold in the south is a magical attack, and no matter how much clothes you wear, you have to be resistant.
But these are premised, and that is the heating of the north.
In the southern winter that Lin Yu'an has experienced, many times it is only cold for a few days, and he usually sweats when he wears a thicker coat.
To solve the problem of keeping warm, you may have to rely on the ondol.
How do you bring this up?
Do you continue to use travel merchants as an excuse? But she is still a child, will it arouse everyone's suspicion to make so many suggestions rashly?
Alas!
She felt like she was too cowardly.
In those time-traveling novels that I used to read, the protagonists did whatever they thought of immediately, and they weren't afraid that others would suspect it, didn't they have nothing?
Lin Yu'an thought that maybe he should be bolder.
If it's too cold, you won't be able to sleep!
At this time, the nurse came in with a bowl of things, and said with a smile: "Listen to the voice, the young lady is awake, right?" Come, drink a bowl of goat's milk, this is specially ordered by the young master. ”
Qinghe stepped forward to take the bowl and handed it to Lin Yu'an.
But after smelling the smell coming from the bowl, Lin Yu'an immediately wrinkled his delicate eyebrows, and he was a little resistant.
But the nurse kept urging her.
Lin Yu'an had to try to take a sip, the strong smell made her want to vomit, but she knew that ancient dairy products were rare things, so she didn't waste it and swallowed it hard.
It's weird.
She had also drunk goat's milk brewed with powder before, but it didn't taste like this!
The nurse saw that she only took one sip and did not move, so she continued to persuade: "Drink it quickly, it will not taste good when it will be cold." ”
Lin Yu'an muttered in his heart, it's not cold, it's not much delicious!
She was a little resistant to this bowl of goat's milk, so she changed the topic and asked, "How is my brother's injury?" ”
Speaking of this, the nurse's eyes flashed with excitement.
"Doctor Mu is a capable person, he added that splint to the young master's leg, which allowed the young master to move a little, he was worried that he would be injured if he moved, but the young master didn't even dare to move."
"Really? I'm going to check it out! ”
After Lin Yu'an finished speaking, he put the bowl of goat's milk aside, and then pulled Qinghe out quickly.
"Miss, Miss, slow down, Qinghe has to hold on to Miss, don't fall!"
The nurse hurriedly followed behind, and kept commanding.
The bowl of goat's milk was forgotten.
