Chapter 1068: Doctor Tan
Old Madam Yin couldn't help but glare at Manbao, but Yin Huo still ignored her.
Bai Shan couldn't help but ask, "Didn't the school plan to go climbing for Double Ninth Festival? You told us today that you wanted to go too. How can you go if your injury isn't healed? Have you ever climbed a mountain in your life?"
Bai Erlang said, "Definitely not."
Yin Huo turned his head slightly to look at them.
When the three saw that there was something interesting going on, they immediately said, "The mountains near the capital are quite beautiful. It's autumn and the weather is clear and crisp, and there are wild flowers and insects along the roadside. It must be very beautiful."
Bai Erlang had originally found an excuse, but when he heard Manbao's words, he shuddered, "What's so good about bugs?"
"Butterflies are also insects," Manbao said, "Have you ever caught a butterfly? I can make a net for you and we can go catch butterflies."
Bai Shan said: "You can also climb up the mountain and write poetry, and sleep outdoors on the mountain, which is very fun."
Bai Erlang nodded repeatedly, "You still have a lot of fun to do. Don't keep thinking about life and death. You just don't want to have children, right? If you don't want to have children, then don't have them. If they don't listen to you, just don't tell them. You can tell us, too."
Seeing that his attitude had softened a little, Manbao asked Bai Shan and Bai Erlang to help him up, put a pillow under him, and then scooped a spoonful of medicine and handed it to his mouth.
Old Madam Yin looked at it nervously.
Yin Huo lowered his eyes and looked at the medicine that was handed to his mouth. After a moment of silence, he opened his mouth and drank it.
Seeing that he had finished drinking, Manbao simply handed the bowl to him and said, "Just drink it in one gulp. Spoonfuls of it are too bitter."
Yin Huo glanced at her, reached out to take it, and drank the medicine.
Bai Erlang reached out and took out a candy, peeled off the candy wrapper and put it into his mouth, smiling innocently: "How is it, not bitter anymore?"
Doctor Tan watched all this silently, and turned aside to ask Madam Yin to go to the yard to talk.
Old Madam Yin glanced at the three people gathered around the bed, then turned and went to the yard with Doctor Tan.
"Madam, the young master has already made his own decision. That medicine..."
Old Madam Yin still felt a little resentful when she mentioned this. She looked at Doctor Tan suspiciously and asked, "Didn't Doctor Tan notice that Qilang had changed the medicine?"
Doctor Tan lowered his eyes and sighed, then took a step back and bowed deeply. "I see, I didn't tell the old lady. This is my fault."
Madam Yin's face turned ugly. She asked, "Why didn't Doctor Tan tell me?"
Doctor Tan remained silent.
Madam Yin clenched her cane and said angrily, "Doctor Tan, we asked you to come here to treat me..."
"Madam," a voice sounded behind Madam Yin.
Madam Yin turned around and saw Doctor Tan standing behind her, holding a medicine box. She immediately suppressed the anger on her face and went to greet him, "Why are you here, Doctor Tan?"
Doctor Tan smiled and said, "I heard from the servants that someone had come to the mansion, so I thought maybe something happened to the young master, so I came to check."
He glanced at Doctor Tan and sighed, "Qi Lang has suffered many misfortunes. Although I retired a long time ago, he is my son after all, and I can't help it for the moment."
He pointed at Doctor Tan and said, "Earlier, he came back and told me that the young master seemed to have changed to a better prescription and was much more cheerful. I was very happy when I heard that."
The prescription that Yin Huo is using now is the one left by the old imperial physician Tan. It is a series of three prescriptions, used in stages. The Yin family will not change the prescription. How could he not know this?
He said this now just to expose the fact that Doctor Tan found the problem but did not report it in the past.
Madam Yin was silent for a moment before nodding and continuing his conversation, "The new prescription was written by a young doctor at Jishiditang. She's young and doesn't know how it works. We're lucky to have Doctor Tan come to visit us today. Why don't you take a look at it for us?"
"Okay, I haven't felt Qilang's pulse for a while," said Doctor Tan with a smile. "I heard that this young doctor is a famous young doctor in the capital. The prescriptions she prescribes should be pretty good."
As they were talking, Doctor Tan had already entered with Madam Yin.
He squinted his eyes and looked at a young girl and two young boys sitting by the bed. The three of them were laughing and talking about something. Although Yin Huo, who was leaning on the bed, didn't say anything, he looked very relaxed and seemed to have some energy.
Doctor Tan helped his father forward. Yin Huo also saw Doctor Tan. He sat up slightly and bowed to Doctor Tan.
Doctor Tan took two quick steps forward, supported him and said, "You're injured. You'd better lie down. No need to be so polite."
He took out his pulse pillow from the medicine box and said with a smile, "Come, let me feel your pulse."
When Doctor Tan came up, Manbao made way for him and stood by the tent. Yin Huo subconsciously looked up at her first.
Manbao had long wanted to have a chat with the old doctor, Dr. Tan. She had read the prescription that Yin Huo had given her. Although it was a medicine to strengthen the essence, to be honest, it was very impressive that it could strengthen the essence in a body like Yin Huo's.
If it weren't for Teacher Mo, she wouldn't be able to prescribe a better prescription than his. Basically, with Yin Huo's physical condition, she could only watch him slowly become weak and die.
Even if he took supplements, the patient would often become too weak to absorb them and instead develop other symptoms. She felt that his use of medicine and dosage were particularly magical.
So when she saw Yin Huo looking at her, she nodded at him repeatedly.
Doctor Tan also saw the interaction between the two and smiled slightly. He took Yin Huo's pulse first, then looked at Man Bao with a smile, "This is the little genius doctor, right?"
"I'm not qualified to be a junior doctor," Manbao said quickly. "I'm just a junior doctor. Old Doctor Tan, what do you think?"
Old Madam Yin also looked at Doctor Tan with concern.
Doctor Tan smiled and said, "What's your new prescription? It seems better than I thought."
The prescriptions were all memorized in his mind and Manbao could recite them on the spot.
Doctor Tan considered it for a moment and nodded, "It's a method to strengthen the body and circulate blood. This is the first time I've seen such a combination of the main and auxiliary ingredients in this prescription. However, the medicine is common, so it's not likely that he would be able to return to normal condition after the change of medicine."
He said, "The child is weak and has been taking my prescriptions and seems to be getting better. You suddenly reduced the dosage of the nourishment. It is expected that he will be weak for a while."
Manbao said, "I gave him an acupuncture."
"I wonder what kind of needle is being used?"
Manbao did not hide anything and told him her needlework technique.
Everyone else was confused, but Manbao and the others became more and more excited as they discussed. Doctor Tan stood silently behind Old Doctor Tan and listened, occasionally interjecting a few words and successfully joining their group chat.
Madam Yin waited anxiously on the side. When they finally seemed to have finished talking, Doctor Tan picked up the teacup and drank from it. He hurriedly asked, "Doctor Tan, how is the child?"
