Chapter 122 Hope for a Cure
In front of Dr. Du, he couldn't say much and could only watch from the side.
"Yes, yes, Doctor Du is right. I'll keep it for you."
Ye Zhenghai held the small bamboo tubes upright in his hands one by one, fearing that the water inside would flow out and be wasted.
Yan Hong was stunned by this scene and felt warm in his heart. Although his elder brother became a little nagging, it was because of his illness after all.
It was Yan Hong's blessing to have such a good brother. Without his elder brother's persistence, he might not have known until his death that his disease could be cured.
After collecting the medicine, Ye Zhenghai told Chang Sui: "Give Doctor Du one thousand taels of silver."
Chang Sui took out his purse without saying a word, found two silver notes with a face value of 500 taels each, and placed them respectfully next to Du Wanwan's hand.
Du Wanwan accepted it without hesitation.
Afterwards, Ye Zhenghai said goodbye to Yan Hong and left the clinic with him on his back.
Sitting in the carriage, Yan Hong's eyes were filled with meaning. Although he was a military general, he could also see that Doctor Du was different from others.
He was very confused. When did his elder brother find such a good doctor? Why did he come to see his legs?
It feels so weird.
My eldest brother seldom seeks medical treatment outside. Whenever he feels unwell, he always goes to the military doctor in the camp.
"Brother! Don't look at me like that. I'll tell you. This Doctor Du is not an ordinary doctor. You will understand after you drink the medicine she prescribes."
Ye Zhenghai couldn't bear to hide the truth from Yan Hong, so he told him about how Du Wanwan met Ye Tingxiao on the way to escape famine and how she saved his life, as well as his recent research on pills and his plan to hand the prescription over to military doctors, and how he was going to teach them how to perform suture surgery.
These are all the things that can be said. He didn't mention a word about the parts that cannot be said, such as the origin of the magical water and the crossbow.
Miss Du had told him not to tell anyone, so he naturally knew the seriousness of the matter. Even though he was a good brother to her, he didn't say much, for fear that Miss Du would blame her son for not keeping his word.
"Ah? It seems that I was so sick that even my brain was damaged. I didn't even know that such a great doctor came to Liangjun City." Yan Hong had a smile on his face at this moment, and the hope in his eyes was as solid as substance. "My disease is finally expected to be cured. Big brother! Thank you!"
Ye Zhenghai smiled calmly, "Why are you thanking me? It wasn't me who cured you. It was Doctor Du who brought you back to health. My dear brother, remember her words. Once you recover, protect Liangjun City well. This is her wish."
"I know. I will definitely live up to Doctor Du's expectations." Thinking that he would be able to return to the battlefield one day, Yan Hong was full of energy. "It turns out that my disease was caused by soaking in ice water. It has a strange name, called Ten Fingers Falling Off.
Even the director of the Imperial Hospital couldn't diagnose my illness, but this young doctor diagnosed it. The people in the Imperial Hospital were all good-for-nothings. At first they said I was poisoned and I drank a lot of detoxifying medicine, but it didn't work.
I'm not poisoned at all, I have a rare vascular disease. When I get better, I'll write a letter to tell my family about it."
Ye Zhenghai looked at Yan Hong's childish side and shook his head helplessly: "Don't do that. If the director of the Imperial Hospital knew about it, he would be so angry that he would vomit blood."
Yan Hong laughed loudly: "What does his vomiting of blood have to do with me? He is also the director of the hospital? I don't know shit, and I don't know how he got the position of director. If Doctor Du's medical skills were known to the capital, he would definitely be worshipped as a god."
Hearing this, Ye Zhenghai was thoughtful. Miss Du's medical skills were really superb, and the key was that she could create many medical skills that others could not match. If such a talent went to the capital, he would definitely be the object of competition among the major families.
But she just liked to stay in Liangjun City, which was a blessing for him and the people.
"Doctor Du doesn't like going to the capital, he likes staying in Liang County." Ye Zhenghai looked at Yan Hong meaningfully, "Brother! If Doctor Du is poached by someone in the capital, who will treat you?"
Hearing this, Yan Hong thought deeply: "Right, right, right, we can't tell anyone in the capital about Doctor Du. She's leaving. Who will teach the military doctors how to make pills? Who will teach them how to do suture surgery?"
"By the way, we finally got a good doctor in Liang County City, who opened a clinic that is loved by the people. We must think of a way to keep him here."
Ye Zhenghai spoke from the bottom of his heart. Du Wanwan not only knew medical skills, but also could make new weapons. Once such a talent entered the capital, he might become a victim of party struggles.
Currently, the Crown Prince seems to have a solid foundation, but the King of Qi has been eyeing him covetously. Given time, he may take action against the Crown Prince.
Miss Du was far away in Liang County, and the party struggles in the capital had no impact on her.
Du Wanwan didn't think too much about it. She had lunch, rested for a while, and continued to see patients in line. It has been rainy recently, and the humidity is quite high, so many people have caught colds.
The sheep intestines have been bought and cleaned. They will be made into sheep gut thread in the evening. Once the process is successful, the suture needles will be made and taught to the military doctors along with the pharmaceutical making technology.
As for other things, she would wait for the opportunity. Ye Tingxiao would come to get water in the evening, and she had asked Yaya to prepare it.
It's in the water tank next to the medicine pot in the backyard kitchen. It's exactly the same as the one I gave him last time. Just take it away when you come.
Everything that needs to be given is ready and waiting for him.
As it got dark, Ye Tingxiao drove a carriage and brought Ye Yier to the People's Medical Clinic. There were several large water bags prepared in the carriage, which made Ye Yier very happy.
The master is asking Miss Du for the holy water again. They were still puzzled when they were selecting the secret guards, but now they realized that they were going to form a commando team.
They are all captains, the master is the commander-in-chief, and four other captains were selected during the period.
Thirty-six people were divided into six teams, each with a captain and five members. After a month of rigorous training, when the crossbow came out, they began to travel around and launch surprise attacks.
At first they doubted whether the people they had chosen could do it, but when their master told them to prepare water bags and come to Miss Du's clinic, they knew they were asked to fetch water.
Ye Yi and Ye Er whispered: "Miss Du is the most generous and righteous woman I have ever met. I will never give in to anyone but Miss Du."
Ye Er glanced sideways and lowered his voice: "How dare you disobey your master?"
Suddenly startled, Ye Yi gave Ye Er a slap: "You are the one with the most cunning mind, did I say that? I am talking about obedient women, not men."
Unable to fool Yoruichi, Yoruji flexibly apologized: "I'm sorry! I didn't listen carefully."
Ye Tingxiao glanced at his two troublesome subordinates and said, "Be quiet. Just do whatever Du Dalang tells you to do. Stop talking nonsense."
Ye Yi smiled and agreed: "Understood."
Ye Er came over and said, "Master! What's wrong? It's not the first day you meet Du Dalang, why are you so nervous?"
Ye Tingxiao was stunned for a moment, and asked Ye Er in confusion: "Did you find out? I'm nervous?"
