Chapter 680 Moved
The old nanny heard this as soon as she came in. She quickly dismissed the person and whispered about what happened this morning. "I saw it clearly. The owner of Jishitang sent a prescription. Do you think we should invite Miss Zhou in to help?"
Madam Ji thought for a moment and shook her head, saying, "That's unnecessary. She's young, and even if she knows more from her family's background, she's definitely no match for Doctor Ji and Imperial Physician Fan in terms of physical strength. There's no need to upset Doctor Ji over this right now. If he's willing to put in the effort, it won't make any difference to us whether the child comes in or not."
Anyway, since Doctor Ji is here, she will naturally be a help to them, just like now.
The old lady lowered her eyes and thought for a moment before asking, "The medicine..."
"Listen to Doctor Ji and the others," said Madam Ji, holding the Buddhist beads in her hand. "Let's go to the Buddhist temple and pray to the Bodhisattva. I just hope that this time the medicine will be effective."
The old nanny quickly helped her up and asked, "What about outside? From what the second master said, he actually wants to reconcile with the Ying family."
Madam Ji sneered, "Reconcile? If Hao'er survives, I'll let them do whatever they want, but if Hao'er is gone, I don't think anyone dares to reconcile."
The old lady lowered her head and said nothing.
Madam Ji supported her hand and walked slowly towards the Buddhist hall, saying, "It's good that he's back. Someone has to take care of the things outside. Go and ask Ji Zhong to hand over the witness list that we compiled at the time. Those who need to move can move, and those who need to be protected can be protected. Don't wait until the Ying family has bribed people while we still haven't made any moves."
Madam Ji said, "My energy is limited. I can only take care of the inside, but not the outside. It's just right that he's back."
The old lady murmured "yes".
Old Madam Ji was not worried that Ji Xiang would not be diligent. Even if he was inclined to reconcile, he would not let the Ying family take advantage of him, so he would definitely protect the evidence and witnesses that were beneficial to them.
The initial struggle was tedious, and Mrs. Ji did not have the energy to do so. As for the final negotiations and whether there would be a settlement, it was not up to Ji Xiang alone to decide.
Old Madam Ji walked to the Buddhist temple, knelt down, and began to pick up Buddha beans attentively, praying that Ji Hao would get through the difficulties safely.
In Ji Hao's courtyard, the air was filled with the aroma of medicine. Imperial Physician Fan brought the boiled medicine and asked the attendant to pour it into him...
After he finished taking a dose of medicine, about half an hour later, another bowl of medicine was brought to him. The servant drank it carefully. After he finished drinking this bowl of medicine, the external ointment was also prepared, and Doctor Fan personally applied it for him.
This is a brand new prescription and their last hope. If it doesn't work, the four doctors will be helpless.
At least based on what they have in their minds now, they really have no other choice.
Everyone stared at Ji Hao. The doctors were very serious that day, just like the day when Ji Hao was carried back.
Doctor Ji had already removed all the fever-reducing injections. After waiting for about two quarters of an hour, he reached out and touched his forehead. His eyes lit up slightly, and he asked Doctor Fan and others to try to see if the fever had subsided a little.
Imperial Physician Fan and the other two confirmed it and nodded, "It seems to be a little lower."
Doctor Ji: "I can give you another injection in the afternoon. I don't know if this medicine will be effective."
Imperial Physician Fan: "Let's see how it goes tonight. If you can make it through, there will be more hope."
He turned around and told the servant beside him, "Feed him more water."
"yes."
The effect of the new prescription was better than they had imagined. When the second dose was given in the afternoon, Doctor Ji could already sense the change in the pulse. He immediately and happily asked Doctor Fan to come and confirm it.
Imperial Physician Fan felt his pulse and nodded slightly. He unbuttoned his clothes and looked at the wound. "Go get some salt water. Let's clean the wound and change the dressing."
Compared to the morning, the wound was not as red now, and the astringent effect was better. Even the least experienced Doctor Ding could see it.
Everyone was cheered up when they saw this, and the Ji family became excited as well. Hot water and medicine were continuously delivered to the courtyard.
Ji Xiang, who had just returned from the county government office and had no time to take a breath, also ran to the courtyard to look after his son.
Mrs. Ji Er had no time to be angry with him. The two of them stood at the head and foot of the bed, staring blankly in silence.
There was no festive atmosphere at the Ji family's side, and it was very dull, but a small courtyard on Kangxue Street was very lively.
Manbao and his friends had dinner early, and when it got dark, they hung lanterns in the porch and set up the table in the yard.
There were pastries on the table. Aunt Rong took out the steamed crabs and placed the prepared sauce on the table. Zhou Silang and Daji opened the wine. Everyone sat around the table, happily chatting and eating delicious food.
Manbao felt that this was what a holiday was like, and the previous two days were all wasted.
It was Manbao's first time drinking. He carefully brought the cup to his lips, took a deep sniff, and commented, "It smells so good."
Then he took a sip cautiously.
Manbao tasted the chrysanthemum wine with the tip of his tongue. It felt a little bitter, but bearable. After the bitterness, it was slightly sweet, and there was a special aroma lingering between his teeth, which was very wonderful.
Manbao didn't find this feeling unpleasant, so he simply drank it all in one gulp, then looked at Baishan with a smile.
Bai Shan also drank the wine and said, "It's bitter but slightly sweet, but other than that, I don't feel anything special."
Mr. Zhuang looked at them and said, "This wine has a strong aftereffect. Don't drink too much. Just two glasses each will be fine."
The two of them didn't like drinking much at that time, so they nodded indifferently and then reached out to eat the crabs on the table.
Mr. Zhuang looked at them with a smile and saw that their faces were flushed. They had just eaten one crab and their faces turned red, which was obviously due to the aftereffects of the meal.
Manbao also felt dizzy and wanted to sleep, so he looked at everyone in a daze, got up, washed his hands and went to sleep.
Bai Shan kept looking at the wine jug, as if he wanted to drink more.
In the middle of the night, the Imperial Physician Fan and Doctor Chen who were on duty came to give Ji Hao medicine and change the dressing. Ji Xiang had been running around all night, and he had been busy since he got home today, so he was very tired and fell asleep on the soft couch in the room.
He woke up immediately after hearing the noise. He wiped his face and went to watch Doctor Chen and the others administering and changing the dressings. Seeing Imperial Physician Fan using salt water to clean the winding wound on his abdomen, he couldn't help but ask, "Master Fan, how is my son?"
Imperial Physician Fan examined the wound under the light and nodded, saying, "It looks a little better than this afternoon. This proves that the medicine is working."
Ji Xiang breathed a sigh of relief and looked down at his son, only to find that his son's eyelids seemed to tremble. He opened his eyes wide to see and found that it was indeed trembling. He immediately screamed, "Master Fan, look, is my son waking up?"
Imperial Physician Fan went to check and found that Ji Hao's fingers were also moving. He said quickly, "Master Ji, please call him."
The next update will be around 6:00 PM
