Feng Shishi is very ill.
Even after taking anti-inflammatory injections, the fever still recurred.
Lu Baiwei had learned how to use silver needles to reduce fever from her grandfather Tang Zhongjing. With the help of anti-inflammatory needles, she was confident that she could cure Feng Shishi.
It’s just that Feng Shishi is too weak.
It's a cold spring day. Take off her clothes and insert needles into her body to prevent her from catching a cold again!
As a last resort, Lu Baiwei lit a few pots of charcoal fire in the house and came to the educated youth site every day to do moxibustion for her.
"Feng Zhiqing, you finally woke up."
Seeing Feng Shishi wake up, Lu Baiwei breathed a sigh of relief.
She reminded Zhao Lingling: "Her fever has subsided. It's time to replenish her nutrition. She can eat some preserved egg and lean meat porridge, or shredded chicken porridge."
"In order to welcome Comrade Zhao and Comrade Zhang from the Provincial Capital Geological College to live in the educated youth camp, our educated youth camp has gone to the supply and marketing cooperative to weigh meat. I will order some lean meat to make porridge for educated youth Feng later."
Zhao Lingling asked Lu Baiwei: "Doctor Lu, I have never cooked preserved egg and lean meat porridge. How do I cook it?"
"First, cook the porridge, then add the preserved eggs and lean meat into the boiling porridge. When it's done, sprinkle some chopped green onions and pepper powder on it. Pepper powder has the effect of warming and dispelling cold."
"Don't cook the preserved egg and lean meat for too long. Let them soak in the porridge for a while, so that the meat can remain fresh and tender."
"She has a poor appetite after recovering from a serious illness. Considering Feng Zhiqing's condition, it is better to cut the meat slices into minced meat. Her spleen and stomach can digest it better."
Feng Shishi felt like she had been to the gates of hell.
When she was delirious due to the fever, she even saw her dead grandmother coming to pick her up.
However, when she was confused and unconscious, she heard Lu Baiwei's voice.
At this moment, Feng Shishi was lying on the bed with a complicated expression, watching Lu Baiwei busying around doing moxibustion for her and carefully instructing Zhao Lingling how to make nutritious porridge for her.
Fortunately, she thought that Lu Baiwei's medical skills were not good.
Afraid that Lu Baiwei would harm her.
The commune hospital was unable to cure her, but it was Lu Baiwei, the barefoot doctor, who brought her back from the brink of death.
"Humph, don't think I'll be grateful to you if you cure me."
Feng Shishi's face was pale and sickly, and she lay weakly on the bed, groaning.
Meeting Lu Baiwei's gaze, Feng Shishi closed her eyes feeling guilty.
It seems that Feng Shishi was quite upset about the fact that I came to the educated youth center to treat her illness.
But she was so proud of being born in a wealthy family in Beijing, and she must feel unconvinced when she lost to a country girl like me, right?
Lu Baiwei was too lazy to argue with her childish stubbornness.
"You don't need to be grateful. I am the barefoot doctor of the brigade. Saving lives and curing illnesses is my duty as a barefoot doctor."
"It's not you who is sick, it's another educated youth. I will also come to the educated youth center to treat her."
Feng Shishi had a look of disbelief on her face, and she believed that Lu Baiwei came to the educated youth center to treat her illness just to put on an act for He Ting.
She thought to herself, this country girl has some tricks up her sleeve!
No wonder I was defeated by her.
Seeing Feng Shishi turning her face away in anger and turning her head towards the bed, Lu Baiwei was speechless at her childish behavior.
After giving her the moxibustion, Lu Baiwei handed her the prepared medicine.
“It’s so bitter!”
After taking a sip of the medicine, Feng Shishi frowned in disdain.
Lu Baiwei ordered her: "Don't sip it bit by bit, pinch your nose and drink it all in one gulp."
I don’t know why, but Lu Baiwei looks quite scary when she looks serious and doesn’t smile.
Feng Shishi pinched her nose obediently and gulped down a bowl of medicine.
"Lu Baiwei, you are so fierce!"
After she finished drinking the wine, she felt so wronged that she burst into tears: "It's too bitter, I want to eat a piece of persimmon to sweeten my mouth."
"Persimmons are too cold, so it's best not to touch them."
Lu Baiwei took out a piece of dried mango from her pocket and handed it to her: "You eat this sweet mouth, it's sour and sweet, it can remove the bitter taste in your mouth."
Feng Shishi also received a lot of dried mangoes and chocolates before the New Year, all of which were sent to her by Li Ruicai from the army in the south.
But Liu Cuifang said she loved dried mangoes the most, so she only kept a few pieces for herself. The rest were all taken away when I visited Liu Cuifang and her children on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
After all, Liu Cuifang is her best friend!
Lu Baiwei gave her some dried mangoes, but Feng Shishi turned her face away and ignored her.
This young lady with a weird temper is really hard to please!
Lu Baiwei was too lazy to bother trying to please someone so she stuffed the dried mango she was about to give her back into her pocket.
"Your fever has subsided, and there's basically no major problem. Don't catch a cold again, and pay attention to your diet."
Before Lu Baiwei left with her medicine box, she gave a businesslike reminder: "Also, remember to take your medicine on time."
Feng Shishi was dumbfounded as she watched Lu Baiwei stuff the dried mangoes she had given her back into her pocket, pick up the medicine box and leave after giving her a few instructions.
"I don't want it, won't she force it on me? Really."
Feng Shishi was very angry: "You even gave me dried mangoes to eat, as if I had never eaten dried mangoes before."
"Miss, your fever has just subsided, don't lose your temper."
"Doctor Lu was very kind to you. He came to the educated youth center every day to treat you despite his big belly. He tried every method to reduce your fever. He was afraid that you would catch a cold and didn't dare to give you acupuncture. He stayed by your bed and did moxibustion on your acupuncture points one by one. Finally, he cured you."
"Your life was saved by Doctor Lu, don't be ungrateful!"
After being scolded by Zhao Lingling, Feng Shishi remained silent.
Because she knew that the reason she was able to survive this time was not only thanks to Lu Baiwei who found all kinds of ways to treat her illness, but also thanks to the enthusiastic Zhao Lingling who always stayed by her side and took care of her.
Otherwise, she would really lose her life in the countryside.
"But my mouth feels bitter after taking the medicine!"
Although she knew what was going on, as proud as Feng Shishi was, she still looked unconvinced.
Thinking about the handful of chocolates I left for He Ting before the New Year, I haven’t given them away and haven’t had time to eat them yet.
She called Zhao Lingling: "Open my cupboard and take some chocolate to sweeten my mouth."
Zhao Lingling opened the cupboard to get her some chocolate, but only took one and handed it to her.
Feng Shishi scolded: "Am I such a stingy person? I'll give you one too."
"No, take them all out and we'll share."
"Each of us gets half..."
Lu Baiwei was about to step out of the educated youth center, and she forgot to ask Feng Shishi for medical expenses.
She was just about to go back to settle the medical bills for Feng Shishi after she recovered from her illness at the brigade clinic when she ran into Yin Jiaming who had returned from outside with surveying equipment, and two comrades sent by the provincial capital's Geological College to assist him in the survey.
I bumped into someone I didn't want to bump into.
alright!
Lu Baiwei didn't plan to go back and talk about the medical expenses, so she stepped over the threshold and left.
Yin Jiaming called her, "Doctor Lu, are you here to see Feng Zhiqing again?"
Yin Jiaming introduced Zhang Cailiang and Zhao Xi who came from the Provincial College of Geology: "This is Doctor Lu from our Xiangyang Brigade Health Center. She got her bone-setting skills from her grandfather, Mr. Tang."
