Tian Cai went over the important points to note when acupuncture is used to treat metrorrhagia, including the location of the needle and the depth of the needle insertion. She practiced it over and over in her mind several times before asking the man to help her wife take off her clothes and began the acupuncture.

First, all the dirt in the body must be cleaned out before the bleeding can be stopped. Tian Cai washed his hands and disinfected the needle with alcohol. Just as he was about to insert the needle, he heard Qu Ting's voice coming from the yard.

Tian Cai put down the needle he had just picked up, pulled a corner of the quilt to cover the woman, and called out, "I'm in the pharmacy. There's a patient. Just come over."

Then he turned to the man and said, "She passed the exam to become a health worker a while ago. She's also a medical worker. I'm going to give you an injection later. Let her help you with it."

The man nodded stupidly, not daring to ask what he was going to do.

Qu Ting walked into the main room and lifted the curtain of the pharmacy with a smile. She was stunned to see Tian Cai wearing a white coat and the smile on her face disappeared.

Tian Cai winked at her and told her to wash her hands before coming over, and took the basin from the pharmacy to get a basin of hot water.

She stopped the man who was about to go to work and said, "Did you bring some clean clothes for your wife? She will need to change into them later."

Qu Ting came back with some hot water and stood aside. Tian Cai then started giving her acupuncture. After a few injections, more dark brown liquid began to flow out from under the woman.

When they finally came out, Tian Cai was fine, but Qu Ting and the man's faces were slightly pale and their feet felt a little weak.

Qu Ting was particularly powerful, so the last basin of blood was brought out by a man and poured into the ditch in front of Tian Cai's house.

The man's brothers were guarding in the yard. They saw their eldest brother bringing out more than one basin of blood, his face getting paler and paler, but they didn't dare to speak. Their eyes kept scanning the faces of several people. The uneasy premonition in their hearts became stronger and stronger, and their eyes became more and more sad.

Tian Cai said to him, "Don't worry, I just treated her. She will need a few more injections and some medicine afterward."

The man came back from pouring the water and heard this. He fetched some more water and cleaned the basin. Then he followed Tian Cai closely and asked nervously, "Doctor Tian, ​​can you cure my wife?"

Tian Cai thought for a moment and said, "Go back and take good care of her for a year or so. Let her take the medicine I prescribed for about two months straight. Then I'll bring her in for acupuncture when the time comes. Although her health won't be as good as an average person's, she should still be able to do some light housework."

She continued, "Also, the prescription this time needs to be adjusted based on her recovery. I'll prescribe one for half a month. You need to bring her in for acupuncture every other day. The intervals may need to be longer, and I'll adjust the prescription based on her condition. However, I'll try not to use expensive herbs."

The man listened carefully.

Tian Cai continued, "She won't be able to work for at least six months, and she needs to be cared for as carefully as possible. While she doesn't need to eat rich meat or fish, her diet should be light and nutritionally balanced. You can give her fish and eggs as often as necessary."

The conditions that Tian Cai mentioned were not difficult for the man's family to achieve. They also lived on the edge of a mountain. Not to mention that they had a hen at home that laid eggs every other day, there were also plenty of pheasants in the mountains. They could sneak up the mountain and catch some pheasant eggs to eat. Fish were even easier to find. There were plenty of them in the river. They just had to avoid the villagers and go fishing.

Tian Cai took out a pen and paper and carefully wrote down the prescription. This was her first time to revise a prescription. Although there was a mature prescription for treating metrorrhagia in the Cai family medical book, this time she had to add or reduce the amount of herbs according to the woman's physical condition, and also reduce the cost of the prescription, so she revised it twice before finishing it.

Tian Cai took the prescription, opened the medicine cabinet, and began to grab the necessary herbs.

Several medicinal herbs in the prescription were purchased at the purchasing station. Tian Cai kicked out all the more expensive herbs and replaced them with cheaper ones with similar effects. If it was the ones she picked herself, it didn't matter whether they were more expensive or cheaper, but she couldn't take advantage of the group.

Tian Cai rarely prescribes medicines that need to be boiled at home. He only prescribes medicines that do not require dew to increase their efficacy. However, the illness of this woman named Damei requires the use of dew, so Tian Cai chooses to grind the herbs into powder and then roll them into large pills.

She directly took out two medicine grinders and handed them to the brothers, and placed several herbs on both sides separately, "Here, grind them."

The two of them didn't say a word. After asking how to use the medicine grinder, they started working hard.

In fact, there were already grinding machines at that time. Not to mention that it required electricity, that kind of equipment would never be available to a village doctor like Tian Cai.

The two men were grinding herbs in the yard while discussing, "Brother, I just heard from the doctor that my sister-in-law can't get cold. It seems that pushing her back and forth like this won't work either. She needs to be left alone."

"What's the point of 'resting'? It's about resting." Knowing that his wife's life could be saved, the man was in the mood to give his brother a cold look. However, he also took what Tian Cai said to heart, but he hadn't thought of a solution yet.

"Oh, right, rest. Rest. I mean, rest. But I won't even mention how long it takes us to go back and forth. Even Aunt Wang's cart can't be lent to us forever. And the cover, they can't always keep an eye on it."

The man understood what he meant, but he hadn't figured out a solution yet.

He had thought about it before. He didn't ask for anything else but to save his wife's life. The child was still young and couldn't be without a mother. His eldest sister had no milk during this period, and the child had to eat rice soup. He was dark and thin. If he lost his mother again, it would be too pitiful. Besides, he couldn't be without a wife either. The family had spent all their savings on marrying her, and his second brother was still a bachelor.

But just now, Doctor Tian said that as long as he came for acupuncture on time and took the medicine properly, his wife might still be able to recover and be as good as before...

The man didn't stop his hands, but he stopped talking. He needed to think about it carefully.

Qu Ting prepared herself mentally before entering the room. Seeing the woman sleeping on the examination bed, she whispered to Tian Cai, "Cai Cai, do you think all women giving birth will be like this?"

"Of course not," Tian Cai briefly explained the causes of this condition to her. "So, try to give birth in a health center. That way, if anything goes wrong, the doctors will be able to spot it in time. Don't listen to the older generation who say giving birth in a hospital is just pretentious. We can only have a few children in our lifetime, so what's wrong with being pretentious twice? If you really end up with a lot of problems like this sister-in-law, won't you be the one who suffers in the end?"

Qu Ting nodded repeatedly, thinking that what Tian Cai said made a lot of sense.
