Chapter 85: Hypoproteinemia
After they settled the horses, they brought some grain and two pieces of bacon to the old man.
"Sorry. This is a little bit of our heart, please accept it. After Nangong Ye finished speaking, Tao Qiqi handed over the things.
When the old man saw that it was both food and meat, he immediately waved his hand and refused: "No need, no need." It's just a night's sleep. It just so happened that my youngest son took his daughter-in-law and children back to his parents' house these days, and their room was empty and empty, as long as you don't dislike it. ”
"Just have a place to rest, how can you dislike it, these are our intentions, uncle, you better accept it, otherwise we will be very embarrassed."
After Tao Qiqi finished speaking, just as the old man was about to refuse again, another old man on the side smiled and persuaded him: "You can accept the wishes of several sons." They must not have eaten dinner yet. Cook more rice and cook two more dishes. ”
The old man knew at a glance that it was the old man's daughter-in-law.
With the persuasion of his daughter-in-law, the old man had no choice but to accept the things handed over by Tao Qiqi.
"Okay, then we'll take it, and I'll add two dishes to you later."
After the old man finished speaking, Fang Yu behind him hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I'll cook tonight, and everyone will eat together later." Meals we will prepare. ”
When the old man heard this, he began to refuse: "How embarrassing is this." ”
Fang Yu replied with a smile: "It doesn't matter, there are many of us, there are many men, and we have a large amount of food, so we should come to cook." ”
After speaking, Fang Yu took out the food and vegetables that he was going to cook tonight from the carriage.
When she did this, it would be a bit hypocritical for the old man to refuse again, so he had to be embarrassed to arrange his daughter-in-law: "Old woman, then you go and help the handle, light the fire or something." ”
The old man smiled and responded: "Okay, I'll go and help make a fire." ”
Saying that, the old man led Fang Yu to the kitchen.
Tao Qiqi originally wanted to go over and help out, after all, there were a lot of people who were going to eat tonight.
As a result, Chang Wu robbed her of her job.
"Peach Boy, noon is the lunch you cooked, let me make dinner with Xiaoyu in the evening, you go to rest."
After saying that, Chang Wuyi slipped into the kitchen, not giving Tao Qiqi a chance to speak at all.
Seeing this, Tao Qiqi shook his head helplessly, and then let Chang Wu toss away.
The old man asked his eldest son to make a pot of tea, and then everyone chatted in the courtyard while drinking tea and resting.
During the chat, everyone learned that this person's surname was Luo, and he was the village chief of Yunxi Village.
The village chief has two sons and a daughter.
The eldest son is called Luo Yang, the second son is called Luo Heng, and the youngest daughter is called Luo Juan.
Because Village Chief Luo went to a private school for a year and a half when he was young, the name he gave his children was much better than pillars, stones, etc.
In addition, Luo Jinglin, the eldest son of the Dafang family, is currently 13 years old, goes to a private school in the county, and his grades are not bad.
……......
After learning about the family members of Village Chief Luo, Tao Qiqi didn't see Luo Xiaoyu, the youngest son of the Dafang family, so he inadvertently asked: "Then why didn't you see Xiaoyu, isn't he at home?" ”
As a result, as soon as Tao Qiqi's words came out, the smile on the face of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Luo family immediately sank.
Seeing this, Tao Qiqi knew that he had said the wrong thing, and was about to apologize, but Boss Luo explained: "I'm sick, I can't get out of bed for the past two days, and I rest in the room." ”
Hearing Boss Luo's explanation, Tao Qiqi understood, so he asked with concern: "Then did you see the doctor?" ”
"Yes, but the doctor can't tell what is going on with him."
"Well, I'm also a doctor, so can I go and have a look?"
Tao Qiqi's words fell, and Boss Luo's expression did not change, but he said slowly: "If the son doesn't dislike it, then it will be troublesome to the son." ”
After saying that, Boss Luo got up and led Tao Qiqi to their room.
Luo Xiaoyu, who was lying on the bed, was obviously asleep, but he was awakened as soon as he heard the footsteps.
Seeing that it was his father, he shouted a little weakly: "Dad." ”
"Xiaoyu, how are you feeling now?" Boss Luo looked at his youngest son and asked with concern.
And Tao Qiqi quietly pulled Luo Xiaoyu's hand and began to take the pulse.
Xiao Yu was very brave, reluctantly allowed himself to show a smile, and then replied: "Dad, I'm much better, maybe I will be fine in two days." ”
Boss Luo replied with relief: "Our Xiaoyu is the bravest, when our Xiaoyu is well, Dad will take you to the river to catch fish and swim." ”
Luo Xiaoyu nodded: "Okay, then dad has to talk and count." ”
"It must count."
After Boss Luo agreed with his son, Tao Qiqi, who had finished his pulse, looked at Luo Xiaoyu's swollen legs again, and then gently pressed it on his calf after reading it.
After pressing it, he slowly spoke: "Did Xiaoyu have overfever (fever) a few days ago?" ”
"Yes." Boss Luo replied.
"Is Xiaoyu born prematurely, and is Xiaoyuniang not having enough milk after birth?" Tao Qiqi asked again.
Xiao Yuniang nodded and replied, "Yes." Is this related to Xiaoyu's current condition? ”
Tao Qiqi: "There is a certain relationship. ”
"So, can that be cured?" Xiao Yuniang asked a little nervously and expectantly.
Tao Qiqi looked at Xiao Yuniang and replied affirmatively: "Yes." ”
As soon as she heard this word, Xiao Yuniang instantly burst into tears.
But fortunately, before Xiao Yuniang begged Tao Qiqi to save Xiao Yu, Tao Qiqi hurriedly took the lead and said: "Xiao Yu's condition is caused by long-term malnutrition, I will explain it to you, and you probably can't understand it." But as long as you do what I say and slowly adjust Xiaoyu's body, then he won't have such a situation in the future. ”
Luo Xiaoyu was malnourished from the beginning of his mother's womb, coupled with premature birth, and there was no milk to drink after birth, so he could only rely on drinking rice soup to satisfy his hunger, and when he was older, he could only eat rice cereal.
But the nutrients in these two are completely insufficient.
What's more, because he was born prematurely, his stomach is not very good, the absorption of nutrients is slow, the nutrient supply is insufficient, and the protein is too low.
In modern medicine, this symptom is called 'hypoproteinemia'.
As soon as you have a fever, the protein is lower, and it is more likely to cause hydroascites, also known as 'nutritional hydroascites'.
Like this, you must supplement nutrition, and simply drinking Chinese medicine will not solve the problem.
Xiaoyu's situation is not bad, premature birth itself is very dangerous, coupled with insufficient nutrition, it is a big fate to survive.
What's more, he also has insufficient gastrointestinal development due to insufficient nutrition, and the absorption of nutrients is slow, but fortunately, there are no problems with the heart, liver, and kidneys.
Fortunately, these are all right, and now the treatment is not so tricky.
"So, what are we going to do, how are we going to cooperate?" Xiao Yuniang looked at Tao Qiqi nervously and asked.
