Chapter 14: A busy day
On the way back, Nan Jin happened to run into Hebo, who was holding a fishing basket and a net, probably going fishing.
"Hebo, are you going fishing again?"
"Yes, Doctor Nan Jin, where are you coming from?"
"I don't wake up early, come out and get moving, get some fresh air." It's hard to talk about the Ma family, after all, it is related to a woman's reputation.
"Oh, the fresh air is good!" Hebo already has an understanding of the fresh words in Nan Jin's mouth.
"Uncle He, you have to leave me one for me when you catch a fish today, I want to drink fish soup."
"Don't worry, Dr. Nan Jin, I'm sure I'll leave you the best." Hebo didn't say that he left the fattest one, and Dr. Nan Jin was alone, and it was too big to eat.
"Thank you, Hebo."
"What do I have to thank you for taking care of my business."
He Bo waved his hand and went to the Danan River.
Nan Jin wandered along the edge of the village to her home, and her body was really moving. Xiaobai himself fell asleep in the yard, last night it didn't sleep all night, saw the owner get up, only to fall down and fall asleep, really a good (stupid) dog who only cares for the home.
Nan Jin smiled helplessly and went to make medicine.
"Doctor Nan Jin, please show my son what's wrong with him, he keeps shouting cold, and his body is still hot when he touches it."
A woman hurriedly came in with a child in her arms, sat down on a stool and began to talk incessantly, very anxious. She was followed by a large family.
"That's it, what's wrong with my grandson, he was fine a few days ago, he didn't eat anymore these days, he only drinks water all day long, doctor, look at his little yellow face!" The child's grandmother covered her heart and felt very distressed.
"Come, you all sit down first, let's talk slowly."
Nan Jin laid out the pen and paper.
"How old is the child?"
"Four years old, three years old." The woman said with tears in her eyes.
"How long has this been the case?" Nan Jin wrote down everything they said on the medical record.
"It's been two or three days, and at first I thought that the children were making a fuss and refusing to eat, so I didn't pay much attention to it." As soon as she said this, the woman's heart was pricked, why didn't she take it seriously!
"Did the kid have anything different from usual before he was in this situation?"
"Well, I'll think about it." The woman frowned and thought.
"Yes, before my grandson didn't eat, he went back to his parents' house with my daughter-in-law. Because her brother married his daughter-in-law, he went to help. The old lady glared at her daughter-in-law, presumably at her mother's house. This only cares about his mother's family and doesn't even take care of his son, it's really confusing!
"Oh, yes, I was helping out in the backyard at the time, and my son let my seven-year-old niece lead me. But nothing happened? "The woman didn't want to believe that it was her mother's house, and her son went to eat good food, and if he ate good food, he could still eat and have an accident?
"Is there anything else besides this?"
"Doctor, no, nothing else is different."
That's weird.
Nan Jin thought carefully about whether she had missed something? If the woman is going to help with the marriage, she will definitely have to eat the wedding feast at the end. Children are not watched by their parents, and they generally do not know how to be temperate. And this symptom is also very similar to the spleen and stomach weakness in children, food accumulation.
"I want to ask, did the child eat a lot that day?"
"Definitely, there are so many good things, I can't eat them a few times a year, so I must let my stomach go and eat them." The woman said as a matter of course.
Nan Jin carefully checked the child's physical signs again.
"Okay, I know what's going on with this kid, he's just eating. You don't have to worry, this disease is also easy to treat, and there are two main options now. Would you like to see which one you can choose? ”
When I heard that it was not a serious illness, but that she was eating, the whole family relaxed, and the woman stopped crying.
"Doctor, you say, we listen to you."
"One plan is to go down, that is, to have diarrhea. With some of that laxative medicine, I will prescribe some jade cakes and let the child pour out the contents of his stomach. Wait until you finish it and then prescribe him tonic medicine to replenish the spleen. Well, it's faster. Nan Jin tried to make it as easy to understand as possible.
"It's not okay to have diarrhea, doctor, child, if you have diarrhea, you have to go to half of your life. You don't know, we used to have a child here who had diarrhea, and he didn't die until he had diarrhea. This doesn't work, it doesn't work! Doctor, tell me about the second method! The old lady was very excited when she heard that she was going to make diarrhea, and she disagreed.
"It's different, auntie. However, if you don't want to, the second option is fine, but it is slower. We just use the elimination circle to slowly grind the contents of the stomach off. ”
"Okay, as the old saying goes, a good meal is not too late. My grandson doesn't want that diarrhea method, so he uses this to eliminate the accumulation circle, take his time, and have to raise my grandson. ”
As soon as the old lady thought of the child who had pulled it, her heart twitched. This stupid daughter-in-law, for the sake of so much food, almost put the child in. It seems that she will have to watch more in the future. Otherwise, the grandson may suffer again again!
"Okay, let's eat this accumulation circle first, and come to me again if there is any situation."
"Yes, doctor."
The family was finally sent away.
It's really cheap and greedy, people have a big stomach, they can eat as much as they want, but they can't be blinded.
This reminded Nan Jin of a Japanese comic "Spirited Away" that she once watched in modern times, the heroine's parents just couldn't control themselves and kept eating, and they all turned into pigs in the end.
Of course, anime is exaggerated, and no matter how much people eat, it is impossible to achieve a leap in species. However, there is no distinction between species.
Before Nan Jin could finish sighing, another patient came.
"Doctor, my throat hurts so badly, please hurry up and take a look."
"Come, stand here, yes, head to light. The mouth is open and the tongue sticks out. And then say. ”
"Ahh
"It's okay, close it." Nan Jin looked at it, and her tonsils were swollen.
"Aside from a sore throat, what's uncomfortable?"
"No, doctor. That's what my throat is, and it hurts. Especially at night, my throat seems to be on fire, and my hair hurts. I can't sleep well, I didn't hurt so much, I really can't stand it. ”
"How many days have it been?"
"It's been almost five days!"
"Has the menstrual affair come recently?"
"Huh?"
"The medicine I prescribe to you is all cold medicine, and you can't take it when the menstrual period comes, you know?" Nan Jin also asked casually, forgetting that there was no modern openness in ancient times.
"Oooh! I just left a few days before the moon. The man said embarrassedly.
Nan Jin prescribed her medicine for three days, and asked her to come back to her for follow-up if she had any conditions.
This person had just left, and after a while, another person came, and there was still a queue.
Nan Jin had to treat them one by one, these people were not seriously ill, they were basically minor illnesses such as inflammation and diarrhea.
Before I knew it, it was dusk.
Nan Jin saw the last patient, stretched his waist, and his stomach screamed. She was so busy that she forgot to make lunch.
Nan Jin went to the well to fetch water and found a fish jumping around in the basin next to it. I guess it was put by Hebo, but the money hasn't been given to him yet? I'm too tired now, let's go to Hebo's house tomorrow morning.
Nan Jin ate some baked cakes in the morning first, and she didn't know why so many people came to her to see a doctor today? Some are minor ailments, and some should have been seen a long time ago. It's a strange thing that happens every year, and there are a lot of them today.
After eating and drinking, Nan Jin lay on the bed and rested.
