383 Chen Xuan comes to the door
Qingshi came over early in the morning and told Ping'an that Young Master Chen was relatively stable last night. He and Wu Jun were on duty that night, and Master Chen and his wife were also there.
Only then did Ping An know that the boy's surname was Chen.
"Qingshi, prepare the medicine for him, then go to bed with Wu Jun, and leave him to other doctors. I will go to the house at noon to examine Mr. Ma and see if he can undergo surgery, and then go to the medical office."
"Yes, Master."
Ping An sat in the study on time.
Master Wang came over and asked: "Is that man from yesterday okay?"
Ping An said, "Sir, it was really dangerous yesterday. The young man was first poisoned, and then bitten by the bamboo leaf green snake. The two poisons made him dying. After half a day of rescue, he was finally saved temporarily, but the poison has not been completely eliminated. I have to go over to help him detoxify in the afternoon."
Master Wang stared at him and said, "Forget about it this time. Saving a life is like putting out a fire. But Ping An, try to focus on your studies. There are many doctors in Yingtian, but you will leave in half a month. On the way back, you have to perform a major operation on the old abbot. The journey is long, so there is no time for you to study."
"Sir, I understand. I will make up for the time lost this afternoon tonight. I will never care about you again. You can't save all the lives."
"It's good that you know."
After noon, Ping'an ate some food and left in a hurry.
The old man shook his head and said, "I didn't eat much at noon. Practicing medicine is very hard, especially for doctors with a conscience."
Master Wang told him what happened yesterday.
The eldest lady sighed and said, "It is our duty to save people safely. My husband, studying is important, but there is no rush. If the person is gone, how will the parents live?"
Master Wang was annoyed: "You all have a conscience, but I don't, okay? He didn't even have enough food, he was in a hurry to check someone, and there was another person with his son waiting for him to check. I secretly overheard yesterday, there were so many things going on, it took up a lot of time."
The old man said, "Another sick child? Why are there so many sick children nowadays?"
Master Wang came close to his father and whispered something.
The old man nodded and said, "Let Ping An go and have a look. Maybe he can perform the surgery. This will directly affect the child's life. Sometimes saving a person means saving his whole family. Even for poor families, a boy is important."
When he arrived at the house safely, Mr. Ma was already waiting for him with his youngest son. The child had delicate features and was very gentle.
"Now that you are here, bring the child in with me. I need to examine him to see if he needs surgery."
Master Ma led the child into the room. The child probably knew what was going to be checked, so he started to hesitate.
Ping An walked over and said, "Little brother, we are both men, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. Besides, doctors are not concerned about gender, and all they want to do is cure illnesses and save lives, don't you think? And I promise you that I will never tell anyone about my treatment for you."
The little boy blushed and said to his father, "Dad, please get out."
Master Ma said unhappily, "I am your father, what part of you have I not seen?"
Despite what he said, he still walked out.
Ping An asked him to take off his clothes and shook his head after looking at him. He indeed needed surgery. The operation was not difficult and would only take an hour, but he would have to lie down for a few days after the operation.
He asked the boy to get dressed, went out, and told Master Ma the results of the examination.
"If you want your child to have a normal life in the future, he must undergo surgery. Think carefully. If you want to do it, I can perform the surgery on him now. To be honest, I will be leaving here in half a month. He will need about ten days to recover after the surgery."
"Sir, is the surgery dangerous? Will it affect my ability to have children in the future?"
Ping An controlled his temper and explained it to him again.
"I will do it. I have to do it. Thank you for your help, sir. The cost is not a problem."
There is a treatment room in the Sun Mansion.
Ping'an planned to receive treatment here, and he could let the father and son stay here for three days, making it easier for Qingshi and Wu Jun to take care of him.
As soon as he said that, Master Ma was naturally happy. Both of Master Wan's subordinates were very good doctors. He would feel much more at ease having them in the same house day and night.
From anesthesia to surgery, Ping An took more than half an hour to complete the operation, which went very smoothly.
He asked Wu Jun to find a new small bamboo plate, the kind usually used to hold food, and placed it upside down on the injured area so that clothes and quilts would not touch it. It was ugly, but it was not a problem for staying in the room.
Qingshi took Master Ma's servant to boil medicine. The medicine had to be taken three times a day, and he couldn't always do the job of a medicine boy.
Half an hour later.
Ping'an took Qingshi away from the house, and Wu Jun stayed, but Ping'an promised to come here for a consultation after returning from the clinic.
The house is very close to the medical clinic, and it is easier to get things done if the master has money.
When Ping'an arrived this time, Mr. Chen stuffed a small cloth bag into his hand and said that these were just labor fees and he would calculate the medical expenses later.
Ping'an did not refuse and gestured to Qingshi to accept it.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Chen. Was he okay last night?"
Master Chen said, "Not bad. He even drank some porridge at night. I dare not give him anything else. Master Wan, you must help him get rid of the poison. There really is no doctor who is good at detoxifying when we return to Minzhou."
Ping An took the man's pulse and found that it was much calmer.
The medicine I drank yesterday was similar to the one I gave the general, except for a few different ingredients.
It seems that there is nothing wrong with his prescription.
"Master Chen, I will come back to give him acupuncture at 3 pm tomorrow. After tomorrow, he only needs to take medicine and there is no need to stay here. Just stay here for one more night. You can let the servants watch over him."
Master Chen shook his head and said, "I'll let my wife go back. I'll stay with the servant to watch over him. Even if your men have to work hard for me, they'll have to work hard for me for a whole night."
After that, he took out two purses and stuffed them into the hands of Qingshi who had just come over: "Little doctor, please give a purse to the doctor surnamed Wu yesterday. Thank you for your help."
Qingshi accepted the purse and thanked him.
When he came out of Sun's Mansion again, it was already dusk. When he returned to Wang's Mansion, Xiao Ming told him that a man named Chen Xuan had come. He said it was Chen Xuan from Qingyu Town. He said he had something to do the next day and would come back early the next morning.
"Chen Xuan? Why is he here?"
Ping An shook his head and smiled. The boy and he met because of an appendectomy operation. In just a few days, the two of them got along very well. I remember that he even gave him two drawings, and the other party gave him many small jade pieces and two very good jade ornaments. He gave one to his husband and the other to his stepmother.
"Has Huo Zhi come back?"
"No, he hasn't come back yet. Brother Erqiang and Brother Linfeng haven't come back either."
Before they finished their conversation, Erqiang and Lin Feng came back. They had been away for two days because He Jin had temporarily asked them to go out for something.
