Chapter 2898: Comfort (Reward for "Murong Qingqing" plus 2)
Manbao prepared a tranquilizing soup for the mother and daughter, "Go home and make some. Drink it, and you'll feel better and have fewer nightmares at night."
Jin was a little angry, and quickly took it, pulling her daughter and turning to leave, but Daduo couldn't help but exclaimed, "How did Madam know that we would have nightmares at night?"
Manbao's mind moved, and he smiled and said, "I'm the imperial physician, so I naturally have other ways to know. By the way, we came here to inform you that a medical office has opened in the county town. If anyone is sick in the future, they can be sent to the medical office for treatment. Commoners with lower-class household registration can receive free treatment and medicine, and middle-class household registration can also waive the consultation fee."
Seeing that both mother and daughter were stunned, Manbao asked, "Do you know what a medical department is?"
The two shook their heads together, having never heard of it.
Manbao was already quite experienced, so he pulled the two of them under the tree. Seeing Wen Tiandong treating a patient, he said, "This is the Medical Office. The Medical Office was opened by the imperial court in various places out of compassion for the people of the world by His Majesty and the Empress..."
There happened to be a lot of people under the tree, so everyone could listen when Manbao was explaining to the mother and daughter. She talked about how the Imperial Medical Bureau was established and how it trained students, and then went on to the establishment and functions of local medical bureaus...
Jin, who was anxious to go home, couldn't help but stand under the tree and listen to her.
After she finished speaking, he asked, "Can the hospital treat knife wounds?"
Manbao paused and said, "Of course, the treatment will depend on the severity of the injury."
"Can bad meat be cured?"
Manbao lowered his eyes and was silent for a moment before he said, "If the flesh is rotten, then the rotten flesh must be cut off. As long as the new flesh is not rotten and the patient does not have a high fever, then most people can survive. Of course, everyone's injuries and physical condition are different, and there is a high possibility that they will not survive."
Jin's chest heaved several times, and she trembled as she spoke, "That's what the doctor told us at the time. He cut off the flesh and asked us to stay in the county town for seven days, saying he wanted to see how the flesh grew back. But the county town is too expensive. Food costs money, housing costs money, and even medical treatment and medicine costs money..."
"We were really out of money, so we stayed one night and then got some medicine and came back... I was the one who killed Goudan, I was the one who killed the child. Why didn't I think about getting some money? Why did I come back? Why did I come back?"
Jin sat down on the ground and began to cry slowly. Finally, she cried so hard that her heart ached and she burst into tears.
Daduo was terrified and kept hugging her and crying along with her. Seeing her mother shaking all over from crying, she said anxiously, "Mom, it's my fault, it's my fault. If it weren't for me, Dad and brother wouldn't have..."
Unable to control her tears, Jin covered Daduo's mouth with her hand, and her voice suddenly rose, instantly drowning out Daduo's words. No one heard what Daduo said except Manbao and Xibing who were also squatting beside her to comfort her.
Jin cried and looked at Zhou Man in horror.
Zhou Man seemed not to have heard what Daduo said. He slowly stroked her back to help her ease her fear and sadness.
When her crying subsided, he said, "What does this have to do with you? Don't take other people's mistakes on yourself."
Manbao told her firmly, "It was the bandits who killed Goudan, not you!"
Jin looked at Zhou Man in a daze.
Manbao helped her up and told Xibing, "Bring me my medicine box. I'll give her a few injections."
Xibing agreed and immediately turned back to get the medicine box.
Wen Tiandong also came over and took a look at Jin's face and said, "Sir, she looks like she has liver qi stagnation..."
"It's okay, just take your time to recover." Manbao continued to comfort Jin and Daduo, "It's okay, just take your time to recover, and you will see the day when your revenge is finally achieved."
Manbao nodded to Wen Tiandong and asked him to continue treating the villagers who came for consultation, while she helped Jin and Daduo leave.
She sent them back.
Their home is not far from the village chief's house. The yard is not small and the things inside are very neatly arranged, but it is too neat, making the yard look even emptier.
Manbao paused, and together with Daduo, helped Jin into the house. After letting her change her clothes, Manbao gave her acupuncture to help her calm down, and then gave her another acupuncture before she went to sleep.
Seeing her mother sleeping peacefully, Daduo breathed a sigh of relief, "Madam, is my mother okay?"
"It's okay," Manbao comforted her, "I'll get her two doses of medicine later. You should comfort her more often."
She said, "The dead are gone, and the living are like this. I think they also want you to live a better life, not a life worse than the dead."
Daduo didn't say anything.
Manbao said, "You are still young, only fourteen years old, and you have a lot of life ahead of you. Your mother is also young, and she has only lived a third of her life. You should persuade her to cheer up, just for your sake."
Da Duo pinched the corner of her clothes and asked, "Madam, can we really get revenge?"
I'm still thinking about revenge.
Manbao said: "As long as you live well, you will definitely see it."
Da Duo bit her lip, and finally nodded firmly, "Okay, I'll persuade my mother."
Manbao stood up and said, "You should also drink a bowl of calming soup tonight. Your father and brother's deaths are not your fault and your mother's fault. There is no need for either of you to blame yourselves for the evildoers' sins."
Daduo listened blankly until the sound of the door closing came to her senses. Zhou Man had already walked out of the yard with the cake.
Bai Shan drew another portrait, but the visibility in the house was not very good, and he estimated that he would not be able to draw the third one before dark, so he put down his pen and went out with the village chief to relax his eyes and carry out the theme of their visit to the village this time - to encourage people to study agriculture and sericulture!
After walking a few steps outside, Bai Shan saw Man Bao coming back. She waved to her and asked after she got close, "How are the Jin mother and daughter?"
"Liver qi is stagnant, and worry hurts the lungs. Moreover, she is more sad than worried. This is a heart disease, and it needs to be treated with heart medicine." Manbao glanced at the village chief next to him and did not discuss the issue anymore. Instead, he asked, "Where are you going?"
"Let's go check on the fields. Do you want to go?"
"No," Manbao said, "I'm going to see Wen Tiandong for a consultation."
Bai Shan could only go to the fields with the village chief with regret, followed by Daji and two guards.
The fields in this place are really good, even better than those in the village outside. It is surrounded by mountains on all sides, but the inside is very flat, so the fields are flat and there is no shortage of water. Although the wheat has not been harvested, Bai Shan only needs to look at the wheat ears and touch its grains to know that the yield per mu will not be too small.
Bai Shan asked about the yield per mu over the years and couldn't help but sigh, "There are no floods, and there are very few droughts. This place is really a great place. So your life is not difficult. At least there is no shortage of food. So why don't you build a road out of the mountain?"
See you tomorrow
