Chapter 100 Are you serious?
Jiang Nuanzhi: "."
Fortunately, it's true that Ping'er has gained weight.
In a daze, the old man was grabbed by the wrist by Jiang Nuanzhi and stared at Jiang Nuanzhi's hand with his head down.
After Jiang Nuanzhi withdrew her hand, he suddenly grabbed her wrist: "Ping'er, take a look at the young master too. He's sick and can't move."
As she spoke, she carefully handed over the pillow.
Jiang Nuanzhi met his gaze, then fell to the ground and placed her hands on the pillow.
"How about it?"
He seemed really anxious.
"It's alright, he'll be lively and energetic again when I come next time."
"Okay, okay, young master, it's alright now. It's alright now."
He continued to comfort her while holding the pillow, clearly not quite in his right mind.
Shen Wenshu frowned: "He was only a little better when he was delirious. You also saw that the wound on his back has started to fester. I'm afraid medicine will be useless. He doesn't have much time left to live."
After hearing Shen Wenshu's words, Jiang Nuanzhi went to check the wound on his back.
The old man's frail body was covered with various scars from knives, spears, and halberds, crisscrossing his body.
Even in his current state of madness, he still sits here with his back straight.
The fatal wound must be a whip mark. The whips in this military camp all have barbs, and when they hit a person, they tear the skin and flesh off together. Now it is red and oozing pus, and it is indeed difficult to treat.
After examining him, Jiang Nuanzhi even turned to look at Shen Wenshu behind her and said, "His illness may be treatable."
Shen Wenshu frowned: "Now is not the time to talk big! He not only has such festering and suppurating wounds, but he has also contracted an epidemic. I'm afraid even the current divine physician Que would be powerless to help him. How can you possibly cure him?"
Jiang Nuanzhi: "I wonder if I could help him treat his wound?"
Shen Wenshu frowned: "If you're not afraid of wasting your energy, I don't care."
Jiang Nuanzhi: "Thanks."
Without saying a word, he took out his toolbox.
She helped Simbo drain the pus from his body and simply cut away the rotten flesh.
After cleaning it up, I applied some wound medicine, asked Shen Wenshu for some strong liquor, and took care of everything before wrapping it up with a clean handkerchief.
"Uncle Xin, hang in there a little longer. I'll be back for you soon."
The old man let Jiang Nuanzhi treat his wounds, seemingly oblivious to the pain, still swaying back and forth while clutching his pillow. It was unclear whether he heard her or not.
Jiang Nuanzhi stuffed the two bottles of wound medicine into his arms. Then she stood up and looked at Shen Wenshu: "Wenshu, I may be able to cure this epidemic."
"Are you serious?" Shen Wenshu was at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
The reason the previous general received the transfer order was because the epidemic situation could not be treated and the army suffered heavy losses.
The newly appointed general brought several imperial physicians and prescriptions from the legendary physician Que to the army, but he hasn't come up with a treatment plan yet. Yet this woman in front of him claims she can cure the disease? Isn't this a joke?
How old is she? Perhaps she thinks she's already surpassed the imperial physicians?
Jiang Nuanzhi said very seriously, "If the clerk trusts me, I will write down the prescription and ask the clerk to prepare all the medicinal materials. I will then provide proof to the clerk."
Seeing Shen Wenshu frowning in thought, Jiang Nuanzhi said, "For Wenshu, finding medicine should not be difficult. But if Wenshu really has a way to cure this epidemic, why worry about his future career? Moreover, saving several lives is a great deed in itself."
Shen Wenshu frowned for a while before saying, "If you really dare to fool me, I will let you know that I, Shen Tingwen, am not someone to be trifled with."
Jiang Nuanzhi smiled noncommittally.
This epidemic was a disaster in ancient times, but for her now, there are at least eighty or a hundred epidemic remedies passed down over thousands of years.
She wouldn't dare say she could solve all the epidemics, but this is clearly not outstanding among the many severe outbreaks.
"Could the medical staff find a few more patients? That would make it easier to test the medication."
In fact, Jiang Nuanzhi had more than three prescriptions in mind that could treat the current epidemic, but she only wrote down two prescriptions with common medicinal materials that were easy to assemble for him.
A quarter of an hour later, Shen Wenshu was squatting at the entrance of the main tent, brewing medicine. Suddenly, he slapped himself in the face.
"Are you fucking insane?! What the hell are you doing?!"
So many imperial physicians couldn't solve this prescription, yet he now truly believed in this woman, who was still squatting here like this, preparing medicine for her!
Feeling somewhat annoyed, he turned around and saw the woman calmly taking the pulses of the patients he had brought in, one by one. She then took out paper and pen to record something.
Shen Wenshu felt inexplicably at ease, and in a daze, she felt that she really did seem somewhat trustworthy.
He immediately grabbed a fan and frantically fanned the fire under the medicine pot.
Finally, the medicine was ready. Everyone watched as they swallowed bowl after bowl.
He watched everyone's reactions with bated breath.
Jiang Nuanzhi also fed Xin Bo the medicine. When she turned around, she saw Shen Wenshu staring at her intently. She found it a little funny and said, "Wenshu, the medicine won't work that quickly."
I've adjusted the prescription; this one is more effective. You can decoct the medicine this way tonight, and you should see results by tomorrow morning. However, to completely cure it, it will probably take at least seven to ten days.
Shen Wenshu took the prescription and glanced at it, looking at it suspiciously: "These are all common medicines, can they really cure the disease completely?"
"Of course, don't worry." Jiang Nuanzhi nodded with a smile, and then said, "I'll head back today to make the money. I'll leave these people to the clerk to keep an eye on their medication."
Shen Wenshu frowned: "You're leaving already? How am I supposed to know if you're trying to scam me?"
"We made such a big fuss about searching for that person; all my colleagues know about it, they probably think I've lost my mind. And now you're just packing your bags and leaving?"
Jiang Nuanzhi: "Shuwu, don't be impatient. My people are still in Shuwu's hands, aren't they? What are you afraid of? If I say it's okay, then it's okay. It's just a matter of waiting one day to see the results. Don't be impatient."
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Nuanzhi took out a twenty-tael silver note from her bosom and placed it in Shen Wenshu's hand.
"Please take care of Uncle Xin these days, my clerk. Consider this payment for the medicine, which I will cover. I will also give you this prescription, my clerk, so you can use it as you see fit. Consider it a token of my gratitude for taking care of Uncle Xin during this time."
"I will be back soon with 150 taels of silver. I will need your help then."
Shen Wenshu was unsure, but he still nodded with a sour face.
However, still feeling uneasy, he followed the people out of the military camp.
At the entrance of the main tent, he still asked with unease, "How confident are you really?"
Jiang Nuanzhi shook her head and chuckled: "Even if the clerk doesn't trust me, he should trust Magistrate Feng. I really don't have much ability, so how could I save Wan'er? You can put your mind at ease and wait until tomorrow to see the effects of the medicine."
Shen Wenshu finally nodded.
Watching Jiang Nuanzhi walk away into the distance, he called out loudly, still worried, "I'll be waiting for you in the tent. Come over soon!"
Jiang Nuanzhi waved to him from afar: "I understand."
The two guards at the gate were terrified.
Shen Wenshu was always aloof, but he didn't know what relationship this plump woman had with him that made him so concerned about her, and even went to the trouble of seeing her off so far.
He suddenly felt a little guilty; they had just accepted money from the fat woman. Would they blame him later?
Shen Wenshu frowned as he looked at the two guards at the gate, making them seem flustered. He then said, "Next time you see her, bring her directly to me."
