Chapter 573 A Dream of Youth 105
The night was deep, and the moonlight slanted across half of the courtyard. The Big Dipper leaned against the south, and cicadas chirped, their calls carried by the wind through the green window screen.
Xie Ning organized Fu Rong's medical records and put them in a separate box for later binding. This was the first gynecological case she had treated alone.
Although the two women did not reveal their identities, Xie Ning still guessed that they came from brothels.
For Xie Ning, whether or not someone came from a brothel was not important; what she cared about was the patients and the disease itself.
To be honest, she was surprised when she found out what illness Furong had today.
She hadn't expected Furong to have the courage to come to the clinic. You see, even older people are ashamed to see a doctor for such an illness.
Most people would secretly seek out traditional Chinese medicine practitioners to obtain herbs for external use, or use folk remedies, or simply endure the pain for a lifetime.
Although the clinic gained another female junior doctor, her effectiveness was minimal.
Because the road is made step by step.
Xie Ning wrote down some basic physiological knowledge and simple prescriptions that he remembered, and then took the article to the east suite.
"Mother."
Xie Wangzhi worked overtime tonight and didn't come home, but Chen Wanniang didn't go to bed early either. Instead, she stayed up late looking at the account books.
"What's wrong?"
Chen Wanniang put her arm around Xie Ning and tapped her nose. "Bao'er, why aren't you asleep yet? Didn't you say you were going to the Imperial Academy with your aunt tomorrow?"
"I will not go to the Imperial Academy tomorrow."
Xie Ning recounted the incident with the female patient she had encountered that day, a hint of worry on her face.
"Mother, do many women get this disease?"
Chen Wanniang was surprised by Xie Ning's knowledge of such matters, especially the topic of sex. Her face flushed slightly, and she coughed lightly, "Bao'er, how... how do you know so much about this?"
"It's written in medical books, and there are even illustrations."
Huh? A painting!?
Chen Wanniang's eyes widened, and after a long pause, she asked, "Does your father know?"
"I know."
Xie Wangzhi originally intended to hide the original medical book and only let Xie Ning learn the knowledge he had selected, but Xie Ning anticipated his intentions and opened that page to ask him questions early on.
This directly made Xie Wangzhi, who was usually calm and collected, blush deeply.
The elderly father had no idea how to explain the human body to his young daughter, so he fled in panic, forgetting to hide the medical book.
Chen Wanniang dismissed everyone around her and, suppressing her embarrassment, explained the medical techniques to her young daughter. Seeing that Xie Ning was focused on medicine, the blush on Chen Wanniang's face faded considerably.
"...Actually, as long as it is properly cared for and kept clean, it will not get sick."
As if thinking of something, Chen Wanniang paused, but still said, "Of course, men should also keep themselves clean, like your father, who is very clean."
Chen Wanniang found it difficult to say anything more. This was her young daughter; who would talk to their child about such matters of the bedroom?
She only learned about it from the booklet right before her wedding, because she only had one older brother and was completely clueless about everything.
Xie Ning certainly didn't want to hear about her parents' amicable communication, after all, she had been bothered by it when she was young. Her purpose was simply to bring up the topic of pharmaceuticals.
“Mother, the medical books also contain a lot of information about how women should take care of themselves, as well as some medicines for treating illnesses. Can we share this information with more people?”
I think there are many people who don't understand..." Xie Ning then talked about the leukorrhea that the old woman who came to see the doctor had contracted. Some of it was because of her children, but most of it was because she didn't understand when she was young.
"this......"
The warm candlelight reflected in Xie Ning's eyes like crystal, causing Chen Wan Niang to swallow her words of refusal. "Okay."
This was actually her true feeling, but ultimately she was bound by social norms and etiquette. Everyone found it difficult to talk about such things, and no one would openly ask or discuss them.
"Mother, you're so kind..." Xie Ning praised without reservation.
"Little debt collector."
