What's more, the medical fee that Qi Nanye, this rich man, gave her last time was so expensive that she always felt like she was taking advantage of him.
Now that the other party has come to me with something, how can I not help him?
Si Jinxing didn't delay. He put down what he was doing and hurried over.
When she arrived, she happened to hear a rapid baby cry coming from the hall!
What is this? And he brought the little prince here?
Judging from the crying sound, I’m afraid that the young master is sick again, which is why Qi Nanye and his wife came to his house in such a hurry?
Bai Shao shouted, "The lady is here!"
Chen Luochu rushed out of the door, held Si Jinxing's hand, and said with a sad face:
"Auntie Huang, it's so great to meet you!
We have no choice but to come here without authorization. We hope the Empress Dowager will not mind.
Please save this child!"
When Si Jinxing saw that her eyes were moist, he knew that the young master was probably seriously ill.
She turned her head and saw that the young master was being held in Qi Nanye's arms, crying and twisting his body.
She nodded to Chen Luochu, then walked towards the child and asked, "What are the symptoms of the child?"
Qi Nanye was a tall and strong man, and although he was holding the nearly five-month-old little prince in his arms, his movements did not seem unfamiliar.
He said with a worried look:
"Aunt, this kid started having a fever yesterday at noon.
The imperial physician wrote a prescription and prepared the medicine, but the soup was so bitter that I couldn't drink it at all!
Several doctors came to see him, but none of them could help.
Finally, it was Doctor Du who said that he had seen the Empress Dowager use a certain pill to reduce General Si's fever.
But yesterday at noon, the imperial aunt had not returned to Beijing yet, so I went to the imperial aunt's Jirentang to try my luck, but the clerk said that the fever-reducing medicine had been sold out long ago.
There was no other choice but to give the bitter medicine soup to the child and force him to drink some of it.
I heard that the imperial aunt had returned and must have been busy yesterday, so I didn't come to bother her. Fortunately, the child's temperature dropped a little last night.
It was fine when I woke up this morning, but after noon, I suddenly felt very hot, even hotter than yesterday!
I really can't help it, so I hurried to find the Queen Aunt, can you please take a look, what's wrong with him?"
Si Jinxing looked at the young master and saw that his face was flushed and his crying was rapid and deep.
She put her hand under the child's nose and felt the hot breath.
Si Jinxing hurriedly took out a thermometer from the medicine box that Zi Su was carrying, put it close to the child's ear, and heard a "beep".
She couldn't help but exclaim, "Forty degrees! High fever!"
Si Jinxing quickly put the fever-reducing patch on the child and asked Zi Su to bring hot water.
While waiting for the hot water, she asked Qi Nanye to lay the child flat, and while giving him a massage, she explained:
"The child's temperature is now as high as 41 degrees. If it is not cooled down in time, it is easy to cause high fever convulsions.
This acupoint is Liufu. Use your middle two fingers to push down from the lower end of the elbow to the wrist, and repeat this one hundred to five hundred times.
When you are at home, you can also give him a massage. The child's skin is delicate, so remember to put some lubricating oil on your hands."
After Zi Su brought a pot of hot water, Si Jinxing gave the child a fever-reducing medicine suitable for infants and young children and asked Chen Luochu to feed it to the child.
But the child kept crying and the bowl could not even reach his mouth.
When Chen Luochu saw this, his eyes turned red, and he felt distressed and kept muttering anxiously:
"Child, drink it! You'll be fine after drinking the medicine! Drink it now!"
Qi Nanye patted Chen Luochu's shoulder gently and helped her feed the child medicine.
But no matter how hard the two tried, they kept spilling the medicine in the bowl, and in the end, only a little medicine was left at the bottom of the bowl.
Seeing this, Si Jinxing had no choice but to take out the antipyretic suppository.
After she told them how to use the antipyretic suppository, Chen Luochu's face flushed at first, and then he nodded to indicate that it was no problem.
Qi Nanye waved his hand and immediately took apart the child's swaddling clothes and quilt.
Si Jinxing instructed the two of them, and after inserting the medicine, he said:
"The child has a fever, and we need to draw blood for testing to see what's causing it.
What do you think?
When she asked this question, she realized that people at that time believed that their bodies and hair were given by their parents and should not be damaged at will, including the blood in their bodies.
As expected, as soon as she said this, Chen Luochu frowned and said with a worried look on his face:
"Draw blood? Auntie Huang means to take the blood out of the child?
"Auntie Huang, is there no other way? He's still so young, and if we draw blood, it won't be enough. What can we do?"
Si Jinxing repeatedly comforted:
"We're not going to take all his blood, just a little bit.
"After a few days, the blood you took out will grow back, don't worry!"
After hearing this, Chen Luochu felt less worried, but he was still uneasy. He wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Qi Nanye.
Qi Nanye is very irritable towards outsiders, but very gentle towards his own princess.
He patted her shoulder and said:
"Chu'er, this is the Queen's aunt. If she says it's okay, then it must be okay.
Back then, this child was dark yellow in color and was saved by the imperial aunt. At that time, even the imperial physician said that there was no cure.
Now, it’s just a little blood, nothing to be afraid of!
We must trust the Queen Auntie!"
Chen Luochu wiped the tears from his cheeks, nodded repeatedly, and said:
"Yes, yes, I was confused. The Imperial Aunt is this child's savior. I don't trust anyone else but the Imperial Aunt!"
She then turned to look at Si Jinxing and said:
"Aunt Huang, go ahead and smoke. We trust you!"
Seeing that she was ready to die, Si Jinxing couldn't help but purse her lips. Under the gaze of the two, she took a little blood from the child's fingertips.
