Chapter 204: On the right track
It didn't take long for the old man to wake up, and Zhangzhu stepped forward to inquire about the situation. The old man was quite conscious, and when he asked and answered, his face gradually became bloody. The palm bead gave the pulse, and the pulse gradually recovered.
"I'll give the old gentleman two pairs of medicines, the old gentleman will take them for five days, and then come to me after five days, and I will change them for other medicines."
Finally made a business, and when the treatment was over, Zhangzhu received two coins of silver for the consultation.
Liao Kai breathed a sigh of relief: "I finally got off to a good start." ”
"yes, I hope it's easier later."
The next day was just such a patient, and on the third day, as soon as the door opened, there was a business coming to the door, and it was a woman holding a child who wanted to ask the palm beads to see.
The child was only about three years old, his little face was crimson, his forehead was hot, and he asked, "How long have you been sick?" ”
The woman said, "It's been almost five days, and it's useless to take medicine, and it's useless to ask the Bodhisattva, so I beg the doctor to show her quickly." ”
Zhangzhu asked the woman to put the child on the bamboo bed, she asked the leap student to help light the lamp, and looked at it carefully, and later found two strings of white follicles the size of a fingernail in the throat, and there were even signs of suppuration on the left, which was the lesion.
When she was in Jingci Nunnery before, she followed Shi Tai down the mountain to practice medicine, and one of the village women's children seemed to have such a disease, and now it was the second time she met, she didn't have time to find out how it was treated, but with what she had learned, she first pricked the child with two injections, and then hurried to the lattice to get a bottle of medicine, which was dark green medicine powder, which was a special medicine she had made before. Hurriedly picked out some with a cotton swab and smeared it on the follicle, the child suddenly cried even harder, and danced vigorously to break free.
The woman couldn't help but be even more anxious when she saw it, and looked at the palm beads with a questioning face: "Doctor, it doesn't matter, right?" ”
"The drug is caused by some irritation, and now it has suppurated, but I am afraid that it will be more difficult to treat, so you have to be mentally prepared. I also gave you this medicine, you can try to give it to you when you go back, if it is not convenient to take the medicine, you can blow it in her mouth, don't let her spit it out, don't drink it with water, then the medicine will go somewhere else, and the effect will be even worse. ”
The woman hurriedly agreed.
Treating children is already hard, and the palms are already hot and sweaty.
A total of three patients were received that day, except for the child, the other two patients were adults, and the two were very suspicious of Zhangzhu's medical practice, Zhangzhu had already seen more such eyes, so she was always very calm, no matter what the people next to her said, she could be calm and unaffected.
When he went back to rest at night, Liao Kai brought back a mother-in-law, who looked like she was about thirty, of medium stature, with neat clothes on her body and her hair very well-groomed. When Zhangzhu returned, the mother-in-law had already helped cook the meal.
Zhangzhu was busy eating, she had to hurry to make medicine, the green medicine powder was gone, she had to hurry to make a few bottles and prepare it, but the medicinal materials in her hand were limited, so she had to write a recipe for Liao Kai to help go out and buy.
Zhangzhu saw that there was an extra box on the table, she had not seen it before, opened the box and saw that there were four osmanthus cakes inside, and Zhangzhu asked the woman: "Zhang Niangzi, this is what you made?" ”
Zhang Niangzi hurriedly said: "No, it was brought in by the leap student." ”
Zhangzhu had no choice but to call Runsheng to inquire again, and Runsheng said: "If the girl hadn't asked, I would have forgotten that this was a pastry sent by the grandmother of the Xun family, and she said thank you for the girl's medicine." ”
When Zhangzhu heard this, she realized that she didn't have an appetite for the Xun family's things, so she gave the box to Runsheng and said, "You can take it and share it with everyone." ”
"Won't the girl eat it?"
Zhangzhu said: "I don't love this." ”
The leap student had no choice but to give up.
In the following days, there was business from time to time, and the situation was similar to that when Shoufeng, those people heard that there were young women practicing medicine and some curiosity was to see the excitement, and some people had bad intentions, seeing that Zhangzhu was a single woman, and wanted to take advantage of her when the palm beads were treated.
In addition to the fact that she is a female doctor, coupled with her good medical skills and good medication, her business gradually improved. After the business got better, Zhangzhu became even busier.
It's May weather in a blink of an eye, and seeing that the Dragon Boat Festival is coming, the weather is even hotter. Runsheng and Zhangzhu discussed: "Let's have a good festival too." ”
When Zhangzhu heard about it, he also agreed: "Yes, I will let Mrs. Zhang buy some good wine and food, and you will have a good day." ”
"Then we can also go to the dragon boat race?"
"What's so good about the dragon boat race...... Zhangzhu just said, and then thought of the old customs in the capital, the dragon boat race will be held on the Qinhuai River every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, it is said that the people themselves organized, she and the seventh brother came out to see the excitement twice, and then felt bored and did not come out. Runsheng is still young after all, and he usually doesn't have much fun with her, so it's just the holidays, so let him go.
"If you like to join in the fun, go for it."
When the leap student saw the palm beads open, his mouth was full of joy.
Before the Dragon Boat Festival officially came, there was a mother-in-law from the He family who sent some things to Zhangzhu, two sachets and a bunch of colorful zongzi.
Zhangzhu also hurried to return the gift.
She thought of Li Niangzi's mother and son again, the old people in the past could not be found, after all, this Li Niangzi had served her mother, and Li Feng'an had stayed in front of Seventh Brother again, and she should have said something about the holiday. She divided some of the zongzi sent by the He family, chose two of the incense medicine bags she prepared, and asked Zhang Niangzi to buy a piece of cloth for Zhang Niangzi to send these things to the Li family.
The next day is the Dragon Boat Festival, and the market is much more lively than usual in the morning. Those who sold herbs were half the street. This is a rare business opportunity, and Zhangzhu naturally seized this rare opportunity. As early as two days ago, she prepared a lot of summer tea, and this morning she set up a large pot at the entrance of the medical hall, boiled the summer tea, and provided free summer tea to passers-by. This trick attracted a lot of people to come and ask for it.
It was lively for a long time, and the streets were deserted before noon. Mrs. Zhang brought the food over, and after eating the palm beads, she still didn't leave the hospital to make medicine, and Liao Kai and Yan Sheng had already gone out to join in the fun.
Zhang Niangzi stayed to talk to Zhangzhu: "Why doesn't the girl go to watch the dragon boat race?" ”
"It's hot today, there are a lot of people, it's not interesting."
Zhang Niangzi smiled and said, "The girl is right." ”
There is a person as a companion who will not doze off, Zhangzhu lowered his head and was busy grinding medicine, Zhang Niangzi helped to pound the medicine, at this time I heard someone at the door ask: "Is the summer tea in the store really free?" ”
"It's free!" Zhangzhu agreed, she looked up at the door, there was a person standing in the white flower sun, and she quickly stood up after seeing the comer clearly.
