Chapter 778: A sick child in front of the city
When the Jiang family's carriage arrived at the city gate, there was just a bright color on the horizon, and there was already a long queue in front of the city gate - the list was released today, and it was just in time for the day of the market, and many small vendors around the capital came in advance to occupy the place.
People like the Dingguo Marquis Mansion can naturally enter the city directly, but Jiang Baoqing is too lazy to use the privileges of the Dingguo Marquis Mansion at this time, so the Jiang family's convoy is lined up at the back of the line according to the rules.
"Official, it's okay, let's go in first." A woman was so anxious that she was sweating, panting and rushing across the crowd to the city gate with her child in her arms, "The child has been burning for most of the night!" The nearby doctor caught up with the doctor again, but he didn't see anyone! Please, a few officials! β
Before the official guarding the city gate could speak, the people in the queue behind him had already complained angrily: "Since there has been a night of fever, why don't you come early?" β
"It's just, we've been standing in line for so long, and if you say it's advanced, it's advanced?"
The woman's eyes were full of tears: "Uncle Auntie, Big Brother and Big Sister, I really didn't come early, I took the child to the east of the town to find a doctor, knocked on the door for a long time, and someone told us that the doctor went to the clinic and didn't know when he would come back." I hurriedly came to the city with the child, I really didn't mean not to come early......"
The woman held the child and cried, "Please let me go with my baby, the baby is burning and cramping." β
Looking at the child in the woman's arms, who was only a little thin and thin, and burned his legs a little bit, everyone almost had compassion, although there were still a few objections, but in the disdainful eyes of the people around him,
"Hey, this eldest sister, look at what the children have burned, pitiful." A woman with a turban and a basket beckoned, "Just stand with me, and it will be my turn to enter the city soon!" β¦β¦ You're not happy, I'll line up again after I go, and no one's work will be delayed! β
When many people heard this, they said that they could give up their own place and let the woman go over with the child in her arms.
It's just that they are worried, seeing that the child's fever is so serious, the clinic near the north city gate is also a little far away......
Just when many people were sweating in their hearts, they suddenly heard a woman's voice say, "Let me take a look." β
The woman was about to line up with a thousand thanks, when she saw a woman who was born a little more beautiful than the most beautiful girl she had ever seen, hurried from the back of the line, frowned, and stretched out her hand to the child in her arms.
The woman, who was afraid of delaying the child's treatment, was about to refuse, but she saw that the woman had already caught the pulse of the child's exposed head with one hand, but touched the child's forehead with the otherβand in a few moments the child's mouth was pinched open with the same hand.
The child's sleek, thin little face, and the woman's slender white hands, look so strong.
Even the child's mouth still had traces of vomiting before she had time to wipe it clean, and the woman did not dislike it.
The woman, who had been a little panicked, suddenly seemed to be ironed out, and strangely calmed a little.
"How long has it been burning?"
The woman heard the woman ask in a deep voice.
She should have hurriedly carried the child across the city gate, but at this time, I don't know why, when she heard the woman ask her, the first thought turned out to be trusting to tell the child's condition: "...... It had to be three hours, and at first I used the local method of the countryside to cool down the child, and I didn't care about anything. Later, he kept icing the child's forehead with a well-watered handkerchief, but he couldn't lower the temperature. β
The woman nodded her head to indicate that she understood.
She carried a maid with a rosewood painted gold wooden box beside her, and immediately stepped forward, and the woman opened the wooden box, took out a small medicine bottle from it, and poured out a medicine.
Before the woman could react, the person next to her shouted: "Oh, sister-in-law, this woman's origin is unknown, so you can rest assured that she can feed the child?" β
The woman also reacted, and subconsciously shrank back to protect the child.
The woman who treated the person was Jiang Baoqing, she was not angry when she was questioned, and explained calmly and patiently: "I am a doctor, and your child has a high fever caused by a cold during the day. Don't worry, I prepared this medicine for my younger brothers and sisters, and I am afraid that they will catch a cold and fever while playing in the mountains, and face the symptoms with your children. β
Mi Liu carried the medicine box on her side, and also persuaded the woman: "My grandmother is very skilled in medicine, you can rest assured." The child's condition could not be delayed. β
Probably Jiang Baoqing's attitude was too good, and the woman's attitude was a little moved.
Look at the woman in front of her, the materials are all good satin, what do people want her?
There was another person next to him: "Old girl, I advise you to be careful, this medicine is no better than other medicines that can be taken casually." Have I ever heard someone say that some of Miao Jiang's Gu or something, if you accidentally eat it in your mouth, you will be controlled by others for the rest of your life. β
Jiang Baoqing glanced at the man silently.
The man was an old man with a rosacea, his hair was a little sparse and yellow, he was dressed in a half-worn coarse cloth robe, and he had a cigarette stick pinned to his waist, and he looked like the most ordinary farmer.
Although the woman was obviously a little confused by what the old man said, she also understood that it probably meant that this medicine of unknown origin was not a good thing.
"Forget it, forget it." The woman said timidly, "I'll just hold the baby and run faster." β
Jiang Baoqing looked at the child in the woman's arms with both legs swinging, and frowned.
"The child's condition is already a little critical," Jiang Baoqing said calmly, "I'm afraid it will burn out if it drags on any longer." The nearest clinic in the north of the city will take you two quarters of an hour to run there with your child in your arms, and you can't afford to delay. In this way, if you don't worry about the child using my medicine, I will accompany you to wait for the child's fever to subside before leaving, okay? β
The woman looked at Jiang Baoqing's earnest eyes, and was a little dazed.
People are born like fairies, dressed up to look like the daughters of large families, in order to treat her child, she does not hesitate to show her face, and is willing to accompany her to wait for the child to have a fever, so sincere and sincere!
The woman gave birth to a wave of trust in Jiang Baoqing in vain, and nodded slightly.
Miliu handed over the water bladder, helped dissolve the pill, and gave it to the child in the woman's arms.
Jiang Baoqing's medicine worked very quickly, and after a while, the child who had been asleep opened his eyes, and his voice was a little hoarse and shouted, "A-Niang, hungry".
When I touched the child's head again, although it was still a little warm to the hand, it was no longer as hot as it was at the beginning.
The woman's tears of excitement fell down, and she was about to kneel down for Jiang Baoqing while holding the child.
Jiang Baoqing stopped her and said, "This is just to reduce the child's fever, so as not to burn the child." After a while, you should take the child to the hospital to get some medicine. β
At this time, the woman had already regarded Jiang Baoqing as a living miracle doctor, nodded with tears, and finally held the child with one hand and freed up one hand, and pulled it to her waist: "Doctor, give you the consultation fee......"
Jiang Baoqing stopped the woman: "No need, it can be regarded as my fate with this child." β
The child weakly cried out that he was hungry, and Mi Liu looked at the child pitiful, and gave the child a piece of warm yam cake: "This was just made last night and ready to be eaten on the road." Little brother, you pad your stomach first. β
The woman was a little at a loss, and she didn't know how to thank Jiang Baoqing and them.
