041 Mr. Huo apologizes
Ping'an hurried to the backyard to talk to his parents, and Erqiang followed him. He would naturally follow wherever his cousin went.
Mei Niang looked at her son's little back and felt uneasy again.
"Husband, is practicing medicine so busy? Are we wrong to let our son study medicine?"
"My dear, please don't say such things in front of the children in the future. First of all, Ping An likes medicine, and secondly, it's not easy to meet a good master like Mr. Sun. Practicing medicine is difficult, but what is not difficult in the world?
An adult man works hard for a day and only earns thirty or fifty cents, and is busy all day long. Being a doctor is just a matter of using your brain. Besides, the eldest son also said that he would find someone to teach Ping An his lessons. "
Mei Niang sighed, "I understand this, but soon after arriving in the city, the eldest son will take his son to Jiangnan. I don't know how many months we will not be able to see each other. From the birth of our son to now, we have never been apart for a whole day. I can't bear the thought that he will be away from me for so many days and it will be like this often in the future."
Wan Changsheng patted Mei Niang on the back and said, "This is the only way for now. Once we get familiar with the eldest master, we will follow him as much as possible. At worst, we can just not learn to grow herbs and do chores behind him."
…
After Sun Sicheng diagnosed Mrs. Huo, he had an idea of what was going on. He then looked at Doctor Wang's prescription and found nothing wrong with it. As he expected, the prescription was a bit mild, but the old lady was nearly sixty years old, obese, and other aspects of her internal organs were not necessarily in good condition. If he changed another doctor, he would be cautious in prescribing medicine.
I don't know why, but there are more and more such diseases now.
"Mr. Huo, my doctor's prescription and diagnosis are correct. There are other doctors in Gu County. You can find a few more doctors to see.
If my diagnosis is correct, the old lady has suffered a stroke, and it is a very serious one. To seek medical treatment at this stage is not just a matter of taking medicine.
Besides, I should have taken the medicine the same day I saw the doctor yesterday afternoon, and I took it again this morning. Why did I only take it once?
Also, when the old lady fainted, shouldn't she have immediately sought medical attention and found out what happened? Why did she file a complaint with the government office so early in the morning?
Mr. Huo, you can ask more doctors to see if my doctor prescribed the wrong medicine. Stroke is a brain disease, so it is hard to treat. No one can guarantee a 100% cure. Once the disease cannot be controlled, the doctor has to go to the government. To be honest, I dare not treat it. "
The old doctor beside him nodded repeatedly: "Mr. Huo, Mr. Sun is telling the truth. This level of stroke is indeed difficult to treat. If even Mr. Sun doesn't dare to take over, no one else will dare to take over. Mr. Huo, Mr. Sun, you guys are busy. I'll take my leave now."
Ping An found that this old doctor was also a wonderful person, the kind of cunning old man who praised his master without offending the patient's family, and he also got out of the trouble easily. What a wonderful person.
Mr. Huo bowed deeply and said, "Mr. Sun, I am really sorry. I went to a friend's place yesterday and only returned home this morning.
My son is ignorant and panics when things happen. I will ask him to apologize to you. My mother is old and suffered a lot when she was young. She has not enjoyed happiness yet. I, I, please help me, young master. "
Mr. Huo's attitude was quite sincere, and Sun Sicheng was still satisfied.
"Well, let me make it clear first, your mother's condition is quite serious, and I can't guarantee that she can be saved.
Also, you should ask clearly why he missed a dose of medicine? What did he eat last night and this morning? You should ask clearly about everything from yesterday afternoon to before he fell into a coma. This is very important."
"Yes, Master, please save my mother no matter what. I will not blame you no matter what happens. Also, I will withdraw from the government office at noon. I'm sorry."
Sun Sicheng nodded, "Go and ask your questions. My master and I are here. I will give the old lady acupuncture first."
"We'll be out now. Sorry to bother you, young master."
Jixiang took Erqiang to the outer room, while Ruyi stayed aside.
"Ping An, you see, most people who suffer from stroke are fat, but that's not always the case, there are also thin people, anyway, it's probably a disease of the rich.
Mr. Huo said that he didn't enjoy the good life, but I think he enjoyed too much and ate too well. He is an old lady, not very tall, but she is almost as big as a ball, with a belly full of fat."
Sun Sicheng took out the silver needle slowly and said, "This old lady's illness is similar to the illness of the old master of the county magistrate's family a few days ago. I am confident that I can save her, but if the patient does not change her bad habits, she will get sick sooner or later. By then, I am afraid that there will be no cure.
Ping An, it is natural for doctors to save lives, but they should not forget themselves while saving lives.
When it comes to some diseases, like this, Doctor Wang is right. The prescription should be mild, and you should avoid taking risky measures as much as possible. If something goes wrong, it's not worth getting yourself involved. Do you understand?"
"Master, I understand."
"Okay, watch me carefully as I give you acupuncture. I will give you acupuncture for at least three days. After three days, if you feel better, you can start medication."
Ping An nodded. He already knew that the unique skills of doctors in this dynasty would basically not be passed on to outsiders. Although they would be passed on to apprentices, the skills would not be passed on in the first few years. The secret skills would only be passed down to their children and grandchildren.
There are definitely very few people like his master.
Ping An was still very touched, and secretly vowed that he would slowly come up with some prescriptions in a few years, but of course he had to keep them secret.
And the master's way of dealing with things can give me peace of mind.
At any time, people have to consider themselves well, otherwise they won’t know how they died and will also be a burden to their family.
Once a person becomes stupid and corrupt, no matter how good his skills are, they will be of no use.
The master is very comprehensive, and he still has a lot to learn in this regard.
Sun Sicheng used the same acupuncture method as last time. Ping An was already familiar with this acupuncture method, but there were many details to pay attention to when inserting the needle, so Ping An didn't even blink.
Half an hour later, Sun Sicheng wrote out a prescription and carefully explained to his apprentice the reasons for writing the prescription before letting Ruyi go and get the medicine.
Ping An felt that the prescription written by the master was much better than that written by Doctor Wang. Combined with acupuncture, the old lady's life was saved this time.
Less than a quarter of an hour after Ruyi left, Mrs. Huo woke up. She was a little dazed at first, but soon she came to consciousness.
The Huo family was ecstatic. He woke up from such a serious illness. He was worthy of being the eldest son of the Sun family.
Sun Sicheng asked everyone to follow him to the living room, as the patient was still very weak and should not be disturbed.
It turned out that the old lady was most afraid of drinking bitter medicine yesterday. She felt that she was fine and thought that if she still felt dizzy tomorrow, it would not be too late to drink it then. However, it was only one meal in the evening, so it was no big deal.
Although there was no big fish or meat for dinner, there was a pigeon. Pigeons are helpful for dizziness, and the old lady ate the whole one in one breath.
I ate another plate of steamed meat dumplings this morning, and I was also self-righteous and thought that they contained lean meat and not too much fat.
Sun Sicheng was speechless.
Such a fat person has no dietary restrictions at all.
"Mr. Huo, your old lady must avoid certain foods in the future. I will write it down and your family members must pay attention to it. I was able to save her this time. If you don't pay attention, you won't be so lucky next time. Remember this."
Mr. Huo responded repeatedly.
His father died early and his mother suffered a lot for him in his early years. Now that life is better, of course he hopes she can live longer.
Furthermore, my son is preparing for the provincial examination in October this year. If he passes, he will take the spring examination next year.
If something happens to the grandmother, the grandson will not only have to observe mourning, but also the imperial examination will be delayed.
Also, there are not many people in the Great Zhou Dynasty who have better medical skills than Young Master Sun. The real ones are in the Imperial Hospital and Kyoto. You are lucky to meet him this time, but it will be difficult to have such good luck next time.
My son and his wife are still too naive. They can offend anyone, but not the famous doctor. People eat all kinds of grains, and who knows when they will get sick and whether they will die?
