Song Yun, a modern inheritor of ancient medical practices, accidentally transmigrates to the year 1973, becoming an unlucky girl unloved by her father and ignored by her mother.
She didn'...
Song Yun took out a thermometer from the medicine box and took her temperature. It was 39.7.
"Your fever is so high, haven't you been to the clinic before?" Song Yun asked.
Sister Xu said hurriedly, "I went to the clinic this afternoon, and Doctor Jiang prescribed some antipyretic medicine, but Lingling's fever didn't go down after taking it. Instead, it got even higher, and she became delirious."
Song Yun nodded, "Do you still have the fever-reducing medicine the child took?"
Sister Xu quickly pulled out a paper bag with two dark brown pills still inside. "Yes, yes, yes, this is it."
Song Yun took the pill and looked at it, and almost laughed out of anger, "This is not a fever-reducing medicine. The doctor must have taken the wrong medicine." After that, she asked Sister Xu to wait for a moment. She turned and went to the kitchen, took a clean bowl, poured some warm water, took out the remaining fever-reducing medicine, and dripped three drops into the bowl according to the dosage instructions.
Song Yun returned to the main room with a small bowl of warm water, took out two black pills from the medicine box, pinched the child's chin, and poured the water and pills into the child's mouth.
"Do you live close to here?" Song Yun asked.
Sister Xu said, "It's not far. It's over there in the three-bedroom courtyard. It's only a few minutes' walk away."
Song Yun said, "Then leave the child with me first. Go back and get two sets of clean clothes for the child to wear underneath, and also bring two towels. He'll sweat a lot when the fever subsides."
Seeing that she spoke so confidently, as if the fever would really subside in a short while, Sister Xu felt much more at ease and hurried home to get clothes and a towel.
Sister Xu ran back, quickly grabbed the things and ran back again. It took only about ten minutes to go back and forth. The child was lying on the bunk bed in the main room, covered with a cotton coat, which seemed to be Doctor Song's clothes.
She was beside her daughter and habitually reached out to touch her daughter's forehead. Her forehead was still hot, but it was damp and a thin layer of sweat was oozing out.
Song Yun said, "She's already starting to sweat. Put a towel on her back to absorb the sweat. If her clothes get wet, change them immediately. There's a stove here, so she doesn't have to worry about being cold."
Sister Xu thanked him repeatedly, feeling deeply moved. At the same time, she also felt that although Dr. Song was young, he was very thoughtful in what he said and did, and had a gentle personality. He was much better than Jiang Xin.
When she thought of Jiang Xin, she thought of the medicine bag in her pocket. If Jiang Xin really prescribed the wrong medicine, then she must get to the bottom of it.
Seeing that Sister Xu was taking good care of the child, Song Yun felt relieved and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to busy myself. You stay here to take care of the child. Call me if you need anything."
Sister Xu was busy and asked her to go on with her business, so she didn't want to accompany her.
Song Yun went back to the kitchen and busied herself with kneading dough to steam buns. A lot of dough had risen in the day, so it took two large pots to steam them all.
She put two steaming hot buns with yellow rock sugar on a plate and returned to the main room. Sister Xu was changing the child's clothes. The child had woken up and was talking to Sister Xu in a low voice.
"You're awake, kid. How do you feel?" Song Yun asked with a smile.
Yan Lingling looked at Song Yun curiously, but also a little shy, and shrank into her mother's arms.
Sister Xu smiled and said, "The fever has gone away. I just asked her and she said she's not feeling unwell anywhere, except that her throat still hurts a little."
Song Yun nodded. "Her throat is seriously inflamed. Take her to the hospital tomorrow to get some anti-inflammatory medicine."
Yan Lingling hid in her mother's arms and peeked at Song Yun. Her eyes fell on the plate in Song Yun's hand and she swallowed.
After Sister Xu finished changing the child's clothes, Song Yun handed over the plate and said, "You haven't had dinner yet, right? I just steamed it. It's still hot. Come on and eat it to fill your stomach."
