Chapter 1252 Please
After Shi Dalang used his strength to trick his cousin Dou Dalang, Old Lady Dou used her strength to trick her nephew back.
Shopkeeper Zheng sent Old Lady Dou away contentedly, then carried three bags of things into Manbao's clinic and gave them to her. "These are all sent to you by Old Lady Dou."
Manbao didn't refuse. She needed it right now, so she accepted it. She even opened the paper package and took a look. She became more certain, "Is this the brown sugar from our pharmacy?"
"All brown sugar in the world is the same, how do you tell them apart?"
Manbao looked up at the shopkeeper Zheng and was about to speak, but the shopkeeper Zheng stopped her and said, "Okay, clean up the table and get ready to see the patient. A patient is coming."
Manbao just ignored the matter.
Manbao has become famous in the capital again. Of course, the excitement is currently only limited to this street, but I think it won’t take long for the whole capital to know about it.
It’s not that the people in the capital are so fond of gossip that any little news will spread all over the world, but Shi Dalang’s illness is a little special.
It really satisfies people's gossipy nature.
Even Doctors Ding and Tao, who had participated in almost the entire treatment, couldn't help but discuss privately, "Do you think the Shi and Dou families will fight each other privately?"
Doctor Tao's medicine boy beside him heard this and said, "No."
He said, "I heard that Aunt Dou went back to her parents' home yesterday with some brown sugar and eggs. Shi Dalang was recommended by Aunt Dou to come and see the doctor. The Shi family is extremely grateful."
Doctor Tao thought for a moment and nodded. "Indeed, Shi Dalang was the one who was at fault first. His aunt had kindly recommended him here for treatment, but he went ahead and tricked his cousin first."
"Fortunately, the disease has been cured. It's just something to talk about for a few days." Doctor Ding coughed lightly and turned to Manbao and said, "Doctor Zhou, I have a patient here. His kidneys are a little weak. Can I introduce him to you?"
Manbao asked, "Who is it?"
"A merchant named Wan," he said, "is almost forty years old. He has only two daughters, born when he was young, and no sons at all. He is very anxious now and says that if he can't have another son, he will have to ask his daughters to marry into his family."
Manbao said: "I am treating infertility, not treating the gender of the baby."
"He has two daughters, one is now sixteen and the other fifteen. He has been unable to have any children since the birth of these two daughters. I have felt his pulse and it is similar to Shi Dalang's condition, with kidney deficiency and weak sperm. Would you like to take his pulse first?"
Manbao nodded and said, "Okay, let him come tomorrow. I have to go on a medical visit soon."
She didn't say where she was going to see a patient, but Dr. Dante and the others knew that she was going to the palace in disguise.
Now, her disguise as a eunuch to enter the palace to treat the queen is just an act of self-deception. Inside and outside the palace, I am afraid that except for the queen mother, everyone knows everything that should be known and should not be known.
So everyone tacitly agreed not to continue discussing this issue. Manbao was chatting with them when a few more patients came into the lobby. The four doctors divided the patients into groups. After examining them, they had to take some time off to help organize the medicinal materials and make some ointments, pills, etc., and they passed the time easily until noon.
People from the East Palace came to pick up Manbao.
Manbao had already changed into eunuch clothes in the rest room in the backyard, and then left with an empty basket.
She no longer brings her medicine box when she enters the palace. Everything is fully equipped in the Queen's Palace, which is very easy and convenient.
When he arrived at the palace gate, Manbao lowered his head as usual to let the guards check him.
The guards checked the empty basket and let them in with a blind eye.
How does decay arise?
It is derived from power and selfishness.
Manbao followed the eunuch all the way to Taiji Hall. The empress and the female doctor from the Imperial Hospital were already waiting there. Manbao continued to give acupuncture while explaining to the empress's female doctor.
After the acupuncture was completed, the queen fell asleep.
The prince found two female doctors for Manbao, one was Doctor Liu and the other was Doctor Xiao.
Doctor Xiao is the daughter of Xiao Yuanzheng. She is a concubine and was selected into the palace at the age of thirteen. She mainly helps out in the Imperial Medical Bureau. Sometimes the imperial doctors are unable to treat the concubines and princesses in the harem, and the doctor will follow their orders and carry out their work.
Doctor Liu is the granddaughter of Imperial Physician Liu. She is a legitimate daughter, but her father is a bastard. Originally, she should not have entered the palace. Even if her father is a bastard, she is a legitimate daughter.
However, she seemed to like medicine very much and wanted to enter the palace to be a female doctor, so Doctor Liu asked her to come.
Manbao also prefers to give her guidance because she learns quickly and asks questions.
After the acupuncture, the queen fell into a drowsy sleep. Manbao and the two female doctors left the tent. Manbao checked their homework, which was actually a test on their acupuncture points to see how well they remembered them.
Acupuncture points have to be pointed out on the body, and only when you find the correct point can you be considered to have mastered it.
Both Doctor Liu and Doctor Xiao were quite attentive. They found acupuncture points on each other's bodies for Manbao to see. After Manbao pointed out some shortcomings, he taught them some new ones and asked them to repeat them. When he knew that they had basically mastered them, he smiled sweetly at them.
Doctor Liu and Doctor Xiao: ...
Both of them felt a little uneasy.
Manbao asked quietly, "Didn't you say last time that you have family leave every month?"
The two nodded hesitantly.
Unlike the imperial physicians in the Imperial Medical Bureau, female doctors have to live in the palace. However, there are some differences between them and palace maids. Although they live in the palace, they can go home for three days every month to enjoy family happiness with their parents.
Manbao asked, "Can you guys take some time off?"
The two of them blinked, glanced at Aunt Shang, who was standing by the Queen's bed and looking at her intently, and whispered, "Doctor Zhou, is there anything you want us to do?"
Manbao smiled broadly and said, "I'd like to ask you for a favor."
She said, "I have a patient who is due to give birth in about two months. Well, if you calculate it this way, she should give birth before the New Year. However, her pregnancy is not going well, so she will have to have a caesarean section. I'd like to ask you for a favor and help me out when the time comes."
Doctors Liu and Xiao were extremely shocked and asked, "They're going to perform a cesarean section to get the baby before the baby even goes into labor?"
Isn't this taking human life lightly?
Manbao realized that they had misunderstood and quickly explained that her cesarean section and cesarean section for delivering a baby were different.
The two female doctors finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Manbao whispered, "I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, no matter what the final result is, I will bear the consequences."
However, she has already made it clear to the Li and Han families. Even if she fails, she doesn't think the Han and Li families will blame her. However, no patient has died at her hands yet, and she doesn't want to set a precedent for the time being. So this matter still needs to be planned carefully. She will go back tonight and prepare for the first caesarean section.
See you at 8pm
