Chapter 655 Treating Wounds
Manbao quickly grabbed the quilt and looked at Wei Chen disapprovingly, "What are you doing?"
Ji Hao also glared at him and said, "Don't make my quilt dirty, or I'll change quilts with you later."
Wei Chen turned to look at Bai Erlang and winked at him. Bai Erlang walked up and asked, "Brother Wei, is your eye cramp?"
Wei Chen: ...
He looked down at the wound on Ji Hao's chest, and seeing the blood, he couldn't help but look away. When he saw Manbao holding a pair of scissors, he was stunned for a moment, "Manbao, you don't want to use the scissors to cut his wound wider, do you?"
"What?!" Ji Hao almost sat up from the bed. Man Bao quickly held his head down and glared at Bai Erlang, saying, "If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. If the patient is scared to death, is it your responsibility or mine?"
Manbao turned around and looked at Ji Hao gently and said, "Don't be afraid. I didn't expect you to take off your clothes so quickly. I thought you would need scissors to cut them."
This was her first patient in the true sense. Although she could also see patients in the pharmacy before, the final treatment of the patients was always done by Doctor Ji and others.
Even now that Doctor Ji had asked her to prescribe a prescription, it was with his assistance, and he had never seen a patient independently.
So Manbao is very satisfied with Ji Hao as a patient.
Even if they had just fought.
But Ji Hao looked at Manbao with an increasingly horrified gaze. He trembled as he looked at Wei Chen and Wei Ting, "You, you better watch out for him. Don't let him kill for money. No, that's not right. He's taking revenge for personal gain. That doesn't seem right either..."
Wei Chen wanted to cover his mouth, "Shut up, you're being treated."
The boiling water had already been poured into the basin. Manbao put down the scissors, stirred the cloth soaked in the basin, and when he felt it was almost done, he pinched it with his fingers and shook it. When he felt it was not particularly hot, he wrung it out slightly and went to wipe his wound.
Ji Hao's face turned pale instantly, and he bit his lips tightly without saying a word.
Bai Shan returned quickly. Wei Ting and Jiao Yong hadn't expected him to actually get the medicine from the medical officer. They were stunned for a moment, "Why would the medical officer give you the medicine?"
Bai Shan: "Because I am a good person."
He put the medicine aside and looked at Ji Hao's wound. Now that he had taken off his shirt and was lying down, the wound was even more obvious.
He frowned slightly, "The injury from yesterday hasn't stopped bleeding yet?"
"It's stopped," Ji Hao gritted his teeth while enduring the pain, "You pushed it, and then it split open and started bleeding again."
"Come on, there's no sign of your wound scabbing." Bai Shan was not an ignorant child. He had a friend who studied medicine next to him, so he naturally knew some medical knowledge and had even read medical books carefully.
Manbao often talked about what happened in the pharmacy. It was obvious that Ji Hao's wound showed no signs of healing. Even if he didn't push him, the wound would bleed again if he moved a little more violently.
Thinking of this, Bai Shan frowned, "You really don't care about your life. Even in this state, you still want to climb over the wall to get out. Aren't you afraid of the bloodshed?"
Manbao ignored them and concentrated on cleaning the wound. The water in the basin soon turned red, and Jiao Yong quickly changed it.
Ji Hao was led by Bai Shan to talk, and although his forehead was sweating from the pain, at least he did not struggle.
"That's why I asked you to step on me. We're all classmates. Will you die if you bend down and step on me? Isn't this how we all help each other when we climb the wall?"
"Hmph, after you teased me, I still had to bend over and let you step on me to climb up the wall. How can you be so shameless?" Although he was a patient, Bai Shan did not give in at all on the issue of right and wrong.
Manbao finished cleaning the wound while they were arguing back and forth. Then he picked out a bottle of ointment from the medicine Bai Shan brought. He also selected a pair of medicines and checked that they were correct. After that, he handed it to Wei Ting and said, "This is medicine for internal use. Have someone boil it and send it over."
Wei Ting said "oh" and went out with the medicine bag.
Manbao carefully applied hemostatic ointment and bandaged him, saying regretfully, "It's a pity I didn't bring my needle bag, otherwise I could give you acupuncture to stop the bleeding, which would make the ointment more effective."
Manbao thought thoughtfully, "It seems I have to carry a needle bag with me from now on."
Of course, this "carry on" does not refer to the one kept with Koko, but the one kept on the body.
Her consciousness slipped into the system and took a look at the needle bag in the corner. She felt that even if Ji Hao didn't use acupuncture to stop the bleeding, it would be fine, so she didn't risk taking it out.
Bai Shan said, "Your needle bag is too big. I heard there are simple needle bags with only a dozen needles. Even tied together, they are only about three fingers wide. You can tie it around your waist or put it in your sleeve."
Manbao bandaged Jihao and nodded in approval, "That's a good idea."
The ointment took effect. The medicine used by the medical officer was not as good as the expensive ones bought from outside, nor as good as what he had at home, so it was a little spicy and painful. He sucked his saliva and couldn't help but speak to divert his attention. "Really? You are a student, and you actually carry a needle bag with you. Are you going to be an imperial physician instead of taking the imperial examination?"
"I don't want to be an imperial physician," Manbao said. "Being an imperial physician means staying in one place for the rest of your life. The thought of that is pathetic."
Bai Shan nodded in agreement and added, "It's easy to die. Haven't you read in some storybooks? They didn't cure this noble lady's illness, so they dragged the imperial physician down and beheaded him; they didn't cure that noble lady's illness, so they confiscated the imperial physician's entire family."
Ji Hao: "...Who wrote this story? In this world, apart from a few nobles in the palace, who would dare to do this and treat the imperial physician with such disregard?"
And who would dare to frame those noble ladies in the palace?
Manbao blinked and said, "I don't know who wrote it, but there is such a book anyway."
Bai Shan also tried hard to think about it, but he couldn't quite remember where this sentence came from. But who cares, he must have seen it anyway.
The bandaging was completed, but the medicine was not yet ready, so everyone sat and waited for the medicine, and the atmosphere was a little tense for a while.
Wei Chen looked around, afraid they would start arguing or fighting again, so he quickly said, "Today, we've made peace with each other. Once we leave this room, we'll still be friends. No more fighting."
After saying that, he looked at Wei Ting, who immediately nodded and said, "Yes, yes, that's what we should do. Today, we are all in this together."
Manbao then asked, "Since we're friends, can you tell me how this wound came about? I thought hairpins were usually used to stab people, so how could this be a scratch?"
Ji Hao looked at their ages and couldn't help but say something mean. He lay on the bed and chuckled, saying, "You don't know what Chunfeng Tower is, do you?"
The three of them shook their heads together, "Restaurant? A restaurant better than Ganxianglou?"
Ji Hao couldn't help but burst out laughing, which hurt his wound and made him cry out again.
If he wasn't injured, he would be rolling around with a smile.
