Chapter 239

Several doctors in the resettlement workshop gathered in one of the resettlement rooms. There was a little child lying on the single bed. This was the first time for Xu Yi and others to receive such a young child. She looked like she was only a few months old. The mother's eyes were red and swollen from crying, her throat was hoarse, and her speech was intermittent. She couldn't even explain the basic situation.

This is not a place where anyone can come in. It's too late to arrest someone who can explain the situation clearly.

Xu Yi leaned over to check for pulse, but the child's pulse was too weak and he couldn't feel it.

Seeing that Xu Yi was helpless, the expressions of Pang Mincai and Yang Xiujin changed again and again, becoming even more ugly.

"Is there nothing we can do?" Yang Xiujin took a deep breath, "Brother Xu, what should we do now?"

He knew the child's family. Although they were not relatives, the two families had the same ancestors. This woman wanted to call him Uncle of the three clans.

He couldn't just watch this child just disappear.

Xu Yi was silent for a long time and looked at the people present with determination: "The original prescription is not suitable. We can only improve it from the original prescription and change it to Yingru prescription."

"It takes time to change the prescription, but depending on the child's condition, It's unclear, maybe it will last until then?" Pang Min touched the child's little hand, it was cold and could not detect much temperature.

He just noticed that the baby's vomit turned into blue water, and there was nothing left in the stomach to vomit.

According to this situation, it must be relieved with prescription first.

The baby, who is a few months old, was already very weak. Now he is sick and his health is even worse. Medications prescribed for adults will be harmful to him to a certain extent.

If possible, Xu Yi would not want to apply such a prescription directly.

He thought for a while and made a suggestion: "What do you think about using Tiaozhong Decoction?"

Tiaozhong Decoction can treat children's diarrhea caused by the cold weather in the morning and evening in spring and autumn, or it can simply treat fever and vomiting. and diarrhea etc.

Among the medicinal materials used in the prescription is Pueraria lobata. This Pueraria lobata is a good thing. It has a slight smell and a sweet taste. It can be used to satisfy hunger when there is no food. However, it is cool in nature and cannot be eaten in too much.

It is sweet and not unpleasant to drink when boiled into soup.

Compared with the adult prescription, this infant formula is a very good emergency prescription.

"That's all." Pang Mincai nodded sadly.

In the ears, the child's mother was still crying intermittently, and everyone in the room was in a very low mood.

With the suppressed cries rising and falling, Minzhuang from outside wearing a mask came to report: "Doctor Xu, there is a new doctor outside."

"Go and invite him quickly." Xu Yi turned around and quickly led the people out.

Several people did not go to see the doctor immediately, but asked Minzhuang to take them to the free clinic. When they come out of the resettlement house, they have to wash their hands and faces with water.

Then I went to see the two new doctors.

Among the new doctors, there is one named Qi Ming. He is currently the oldest person in the resettlement center, already forty-six years old. After receiving the summons order this time, he only hesitated for two days before taking his luggage and heading to the resettlement house outside Qishui City.

There was another doctor. The two met halfway, and they happened to be coming to the resettlement workshop, so they went together.

This doctor's name is Lin Xiuhui, nicknamed Qingpeng. He is a private apprentice of a professor at Qizhou Medical College. He once worked as an outside student in the "Fangmai Department" of the medical school for three years. Because he prefers to travel and study, he left the regular medical school. , to be an ordinary medical doctor.

He came by self-recommendation. Magistrate He agreed that he was a student of a professor at Qizhou Medical College and that he was well-known in medicine and well-known around Qizhou Prefecture.

When the two came to the resettlement workshop, they were shocked for a moment by the resettlement method inside.

Especially Lin Xiuhui, who once followed his teacher to the Huimin Bureau to assist in medical rescue and had a little understanding of the plague.

From the moment he entered here, he discovered that Dr. Xu, who led the resettlement workshop, had some real abilities.

"It seems we came at the right time." After asking about the situation in the Minzhuang resettlement center, Lin Xiuhui looked at Qi Ming with a smile.

Qi Ming stroked his beard and nodded: "At the beginning, I was afraid that these people were trying to be mysterious, but I didn't expect that they are actually quite capable."

"By the way, where are they?"

As soon as he said this, several sets of footsteps sounded outside.

The light outside the house dimmed instantly, and several doctors came in from the door. They met and introduced each other, and Xu Yi ordered A Xu to clean out the house where the doctors lived.

"There are not enough resettlement houses at the moment, so I have sent the remaining civilians to help the craftsmen build houses." Xu Yi looked at the two people with an apologetic look, "The disaster relief funds are limited, and the doctors' food and accommodation are kept simple, so we can only work hard for the two of them. "

We're not here to enjoy ourselves." Qi Ming waved his hand and said there was no need for this.

Lin Xiuhui looked at Xu Yi with a faint smile: "I heard that a doctor in the resettlement workshop concocted 'Piwen San', but what did Dr. Xu do?"

"It's me." Xu Yi nodded.

Lin Xiuhui's eyes changed slightly, and she asked, "Can I bring this Piwen Powder to see you?"

Xu Yi said, "Doctor Lin can do it anytime he wants, and I happen to still have some."

He took out the small cloth bag tied around his waist . Untie it and hand it to Lin Xiuhui.

Lin Xiuhui was not polite. After taking it, she opened it and smelled it in public. Then she pinched some and put it on the tip of her tongue to taste. She analyzed with half-squinted eyes: "There are Atractylodes, Chuanxiong, Angelica dahurica, and what's the taste... "

The smell of this medicinal powder was so mixed that he couldn't remember it for a short time.

Qi Ming next to him took the cloth bag and also tasted some of it in his mouth. Xumi, Qi Ming looked at Xu Yi uncertainly: "Linglingxiang?"

"That's it." Xu Yi raised his eyebrows.

He didn't say what medicinal materials were used in this Piwen Powder, he just wanted to see if the two doctors who came today could identify it.

At present, it seems that the arrival of these two doctors can take away part of their burden.

After finishing the topic, A Xu led the two of them to the doctor's dormitory.

This dormitory is not a single room. There are two beds inside and two small square tables. The table can just fit the medicine box.

Qi Ming and Lin Xiuhui looked at the dormitory in front of them with only one bed and one table and stools, and felt that Xu Yi's "simplification" was already beautified. This is not simplicity at all. This is really poverty-stricken.

"Fortunately, I brought a bedding." Qi Ming wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Lin Xiuhui was a little miserable. He didn't have much luggage. Apart from a medicine box he carried with him, he only had two changes of clothes. Not to mention bedding, there are not even toiletries.

He looked at the young man leading the way awkwardly: "Are beddings provided here?"

"No." A Xu shook his head honestly, but he changed the topic, "If Dr. Lin didn't bring beddings, if there are some at home, I will bring them to you. "

Lin Xiuhui breathed out: "That's troublesome, brother."

A Xu waved his hands naively: "No trouble, I'll go get the two doctors a basin and toothbrush and tooth powder first, if you two still need it. I can tell you anything. If there is any in the resettlement workshop, I will bring it to you."

"I don't need anything else. I just want to ask if there is an oil lamp?" Qi Ming asked.

"I have them all, I'll get them for you." A Xu said.

...

After settling the new doctor, Xu Yi returned to the room where the child lived.

At this time, Ah Jin fed the cooked medicinal soup to the child in small mouthfuls. After the child finished the medicinal soup, he fell asleep from crying due to exhaustion.

Xu Yi touched the child's forehead, hands and feet, and they no longer felt so cold and hypothermic.

His serious expression eased, and he looked at the woman next to him and asked, "Can you tell me more carefully, what does this child eat on weekdays?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, realizing that Xu Yi was asking. As she spoke, her excitement had eased. She wiped away the remaining tears hanging in the corners of her eyes and replied in a low voice: "After Yangjiazhuang was closed down, my mother-in-law followed Min Zhuangfa's words and only fed her with boiled water and rice. It’s so sticky that I don’t dare to eat anything else.”

Even though he was so cautious, the child still got sick.

Thinking of this, the woman's tears couldn't stop falling again.

Xu Yi sighed silently, took out the spare cotton handkerchief from his sleeve pocket and handed it to her to wipe her tears.

"Don't cry either. We will try to cure the child's illness as soon as possible, but you must be well-educated before you have the strength to take care of the child. Otherwise, you will fall ill before the child is saved."

After that, Seeing the woman still wiping her tears, Xu Yi frowned and said, "If you fall ill, you will be separated from the child. I think you don't want to see the child without someone to take care of it."

The woman heard this. , hurriedly raised his head and shouted: "I, I won't be sick, I can take care of the child."

"Okay."

Xu Yi was finally satisfied and looked at Ah Jin next to him, "Take her to eat something first. Let her have a look again. If she still has symptoms, take Piwensan first."

A Jin took the order and took the people out.

There were several other young patients in the room, all between eighty-nine and ten years old.

Two of them were in serious condition. They had diarrhea and vomiting for a few days and were relieved after taking medicine, but the situation was still a bit bad.

Xu Yi was afraid that there would be patients in the resettlement center who would not be able to support him, so he would send a few people to patrol back and forth every day.

And doctors like them will also arrange shifts, and doctors will check the wards every hour. In this case, whenever something happens, everyone will be able to discover it immediately.

A Xu and A Jin's medical skills are no worse than those of ordinary doctors, and Xu Yi arranges almost all their daily schedules. They do not need to patrol the wards, but they are responsible for prescribing medicines, supervising decoction, etc., and running errands.

But neither of them had any complaints and had been doing every job assigned by Xu Yi conscientiously.

Of course, no one else dared to use them except Xu Yi.

At first, Pang Min thought Ah Jin was just a personal maid and asked her to bring him face wash.

Later, new patients came to the resettlement workshop, two of them were women, and he saw Xu Yi asking the maid named A Jin to treat them.

He is also very skilled in diagnosing pulses and is even more skilled in writing medical records.

He was surprised and ran to ask Xu Yi, only to learn that the two brothers, A Xu and A Jin, were not Xu Yi's servants at all, but disciples.

Pang Mincai: "..."

What a risk, they are actually the same generation.

In the distance, the woman who was busy boiling water saw Ah Jin coming over. She quickly stood up, wiped her hands on her abdomen, and said with a smile: "Doctor Ah Jin, the Xiaoshi Pills you prescribed for me last time are really useful. My stomach won’t be bloated today.”

Because of the shortage of manpower, Xu Yi hired villagers from surrounding villages who were not sick to help with chores, such as boiling water for cooking, soaking in quicklime water and other chores that did not require contact with patients.

The salary he gave me was good, fifty cents a day, and two meaty meals.

Although the poor families knew about the horror of the plague, they were so poor that they ate wild vegetables. Even though they knew that this job was very risky, more than a dozen villagers signed up.

Ten of these dozen people were women, and Xu Yi put these people in charge of Ah Jin.

The woman who asked the question suddenly had a stomachache yesterday, which scared her so much that she thought she had the plague.

After diagnosing her pulse, Ah Jin discovered that she had eaten too much and had accumulated food, and that she could be cured by taking a few Xiaoshi pills.

The woman was panicking for half a day, but within half a day of taking Xiaoshi Pills, her abdominal pain was cured.

"Don't worry, Lang Jun makes you soak your clothes and kitchen utensils in quicklime every day, and he also gives you some medicinal soup to dispel filth from time to time. You won't get sick easily."

Even if you are unfortunately infected, as long as Lang Jun and the others are around, you can still Get cured.

After Ajin comforted the women, he told them to boil more water and asked them how much firewood was left.

She recorded the lack of firewood in the book, and explained the situation to Xu Yi during the evening statistics. When the time comes, Xu Yi will ask Erqing to go up the mountain with his hands and cut down the firewood.

Firewood is needed to decoct medicine, firewood is needed to boil water for cooking, and firewood is used to boil quicklime water...

This firewood is a huge consumable. In half a month, many trees on this mountain were cut down.

Xu Yi was worried about the impact of cutting too much on the surrounding villages, so he ordered Erqing to go deeper into the mountains this time. Villagers rarely go into the mountains, and the trees inside are denser. If they cut back more, there will be no impact.

...

After Qi Ming and Lin Xiuhui arrived at the resettlement workshop, they quickly adapted to the pace of work here.

The two of them got up early and washed up, then went to the cafeteria to have breakfast. Today's breakfast was vegetarian steamed buns, with no limit on quantity. After eating too early, they received their first task, which was to check the patients in the resettlement room.

They are all new doctors and are not familiar with this process.

Therefore, Xu Yi called A Jin and Yang Xiujin, who were free, and asked them to take the people separately.

Yang Xiujin's family is in Yangjiazhuang. He is not only a local, but also a doctor in the plague area.

Qi Ming and Lin Xiuhui have heard more or less about his reputation.

But... Ah Jin and the others were a little confused. This young lady with bright eyebrows looked like she was no more than 20 years old. Her speech was gentle and gentle. Judging from her clothes, they thought she was a maid from someone's family. .

Is he really a doctor?

"Where did the young lady study?" Lin Xiuhui asked as gently as possible.

A Jin said uninhibitedly: "My name is A Jin, and my given name is Xu Jin. I am Lang Jun's apprentice."

Lin Xiuhui: "..."

"Who is your husband?"

A Jin blinked and looked at him: "Doctor Lin? Do you know? It's Dr. Xu Yi."

Qi Ming and Lin Xiuhui were stunned for a moment when they heard that he was Xu Yi's disciple.

Both of them wanted to see how powerful Xu Yi's apprentice was, but they checked the ward in two separate ways and could not go together.

Therefore, the elder Qi Ming took the lead and asked A Jin to accompany him.

On the way to the ward rounds, Qi Ming asked A Jin some questions intentionally or unintentionally, and A Jin answered them all.

"That is to say, among the patients in this resettlement center, you are responsible for treating women and girls?" Qi Ming suddenly stopped and looked at her.

Ah Jin nodded in confusion: "Doctor Qi, is there a problem with this?"

"No! There is no problem!" Qi Ming looked stunned for a moment and shook his head very quickly.

He just didn't expect that the little lady in front of him was an amazing female doctor.

When he entered the resettlement room, he chuckled and said, "Your husband is very discerning."

A Jin looked at him suspiciously, and when he heard that he was praising his husband, he smiled and said, "Well, your husband has great discernment. ”

*

On this day, several more villagers in Yangjiazhuang showed symptoms and were taken away on carts by Minzhuang from the resettlement house.

The woman who was feeding her sister-in-law's children raw water saw more and more villagers falling ill and looked at her two children with panic in her heart.

Waiting until night, she secretly asked her husband: "What are the plans for the big house?" She

didn't hear her husband's reply, so the woman continued talking to herself, "My sister-in-law went to the resettlement house and didn't come back, and my uncle didn't say anything about it." Go along, I think my parents-in-law want to give up on my eldest brother."

"What are you talking about?" Her husband turned over and yelled unhappily.

The woman curled her lips and said, "Did I make a mistake? We are not a good family. How can we have spare money for medical treatment? Besides, the eldest brother is so young. Even if he is rescued, I am afraid that he is still a human being..."

Her husband turned over without lighting the lamp. The room was so dark that no one could see his fingers. He sat by the bed, covering his face with his hands.

After being discouraged for a while, he whispered: "It's not like you don't know. That's my eldest brother's only child. Now that he's sick, both my mother and eldest brother are suffering. Don't bother me. No one is allowed to say these things in the future." "

The woman pulled the quilt and wrapped it up, feeling happy in her heart but unhappy in her mouth: "I also mean well. If something happens, I can still try to have a few more. If I wait a few years, it will be too late. "

Listening to her words, the man was also a little moved.

Maybe he could persuade his elder brother to ask his sister-in-law to come back from the resettlement house.

It's really procrastinating... I'm afraid it won't happen.

The next day, the rooster crows.

The Yang family got up one after another at dawn. The atmosphere in the house was strange these days, no one was laughing or talking, so the woman rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen.

She is responsible for boiling water and making breakfast every day, and no one will come in at this hour.

Seeing the water in the pot emitting smoke, she tested the temperature with her hand. She felt it was a little hot, so she took the pot of water away.

Then move the earthen pot filled with beans and japonica rice to the stove.

After she finished doing this, she was about to go back to the stool to light the fire when she saw her mother-in-law standing at the door.
