Chapter 258 Hygiene Manual, Secret

Mingdai put away the joking expression on her face and nodded seriously.

"You can rest assured that keeping the privacy and confidentiality of patients' information is the doctor's obligation."

Tian Li nodded. She didn't know why, but when she heard Mingdai say that sanitary napkins and tampons were produced to better serve women and improve their living standards, she felt that she could trust her.

No one had ever said such words to her before. In her mind, menstruation was a shameful thing, and sanitary napkins existed only to cover up this shame.

"The patient is not a messy person and has never been a mess! She is my sister."

Mingdai nodded and encouraged her to continue.

Tian Li's eyes turned red, and she looked at Ming Dai: "My sister is a typical lady from a wealthy family. She is different from me who is noisy. She is very gentle, very quiet, and likes to read.

She is only a few years older than me, but very mature. She has been taking care of me since my mother passed away.

She got engaged last year, and the wedding date was set for August this year. She was about to get married, but she discovered... "

Tian Li bit her lip and looked like she had a hard time speaking: "There are a lot of small bumps there, red and itchy, just like..."

As she was talking, she couldn't go on and burst into tears.

"My sister didn't dare go to the hospital. My father is a well-known figure in the capital. If she was recognized and people knew that the daughter of the general manager of the Friendship Store was not decent and had contracted a dirty disease, it would be the end of her.

There are no other female elders in my family, and my sister really didn’t know what to do, so she told me. She said she would rather die than let anyone know that she had this disease!

But, Dr. Ming, my sister is a decent person. I am with her every day, and she has never done anything out of line.

Even with Xingye, they only held hands after getting engaged, and they never kissed. . .

She doesn’t know how this thing came to be!”

Mingdai felt relieved but helpless when she heard this.

This is caused by inadequate hygiene coverage.

"Okay, stop crying, your sister doesn't have a contagious disease."

Tian Li, who was crying so hard that her nose was running, raised her head and said, "Really?!"

Mingdai nodded and handed her a piece of paper.

Tian Li didn't have time to wipe her nose, and hurriedly said, "You haven't even met my sister, how did you judge?"

Ming Dai asked her, "Does your sister live at home every day?"

Tian Li nodded quickly: "Yes, my sister lives at home, she has her own room."

Ming Dai nodded: "Then there is no problem. Your sister lives alone at home and has a healthy private life. She does not have the conditions to be infected with the disease, so the possibility of contagious disease can be basically ruled out."

After hearing this, Tian Li started crying again.

"Wow! I'm so scared! It's good that it's not true, it's good that it's not true!"

Mingdai looked at her with disgust and her nose was running with tears.

After she finished crying, Ming Dai spoke up: "Your sister's condition shouldn't be a big problem. It's probably because she was on her period and the sanitary napkin was too thick, stuffy, hot, and damp."

Tian Li nodded: "Yes, yes, yes! My sister is particularly afraid of leakage down there. She feels unsafe after using sanitary napkins, so she will also put some toilet paper on it."

Mingdai sighed. This is the disadvantage of not having a mother. There are many things that a father cannot handle, and the same goes for the general manager's daughter.

"Try not to use toilet paper, and change sanitary napkins frequently, every few hours, especially when the flow is large."

Tian Li nodded: "So that's how it is. My sister likes to read books. She often reads for a whole day without any distraction."

Ming Dai nodded: "This is most likely the reason. Just keep dry and clean, and change clothes frequently. It would be best if your sister could come over to check and make sure there are no other problems."

Tian Li's eyes widened: "Do you still want to come over and see?"

Ming Dai criticized her sternly: "Why should you be shy about seeing a doctor? In front of a doctor, there is no distinction between male and female patients. You know, even if you stand naked in front of me, all I see is a human body made up of skin, flesh, and bones. Don't you understand?"

Tian Li nodded obediently: "I understand."

Mingdai got up and went back to her room to get a box of ointment.

"It's okay if you don't come. Try this first. If it doesn't work, you must come and have a look. Don't delay. Also, don't use other random medicines."

Tian Li took it and smiled gratefully at her: "Doctor Ming, how much is it?"

Ming Dai waved her hands and said, "This is not expensive, no need to give it to me."

Tian Li didn't show any sympathy. She put away the ointment, wiped her face clean, and left impatiently.

"Dr. Ming, thank you! I'm going back now. I have to tell my sister the good news!"

Ming Dai smiled and nodded: "Go!"

After she left, Mingdai closed the door and returned to the space.

Lying on the lounge chair in the yard, Mingdai thought for a long time.

In fact, when she was in Liujiawan, she discovered that in this era, it was really difficult to see a doctor, and it was even more difficult for women to see a doctor.

Especially when it comes to gynecological problems, everyone tries to endure it as much as possible. But when they can no longer endure it and go to see a doctor, a minor illness may very likely develop into a major one.

Sister Tian Li's situation is not uncommon.

In this mood of fear and self-loathing, it is easy for things to go wrong.

If other people find out, all kinds of rumors can drive a person to death.

Mingdai is very fortunate that she learned a lot of health knowledge since she was a child and knows how to better protect and take care of herself.

Now, she wondered if she could do something within her ability for the girls here.

Her power is limited, and she cannot immediately improve the medical system and make seeing a doctor no longer a problem. However, she can do something to spread health knowledge among women. At least, she can write a popular science manual.

Just do it!

So, in the following time, Mingdai did not go out shopping, but wrote and painted at home.

This also meant that the Zhao family, who had been waiting at the bus stop for many days, had no chance to show up.

Zhao Pengcheng waited at the bus stop for a whole day, sweating all over, and returned home with a gloomy face.

Zhao Qingqing called out "Dad" softly, but he ignored her.

When Old Lady Zhao heard the sound, she looked at his expression and realized that no one was squatting there again. She sighed and went to get him some bath water.

After the two of them left, Zhao Qingqing on the sofa snorted coldly to express her dissatisfaction.

“Pah.”

The door opened and a smiling woman came in, carrying a lot of bags.

Zhao Qingqing felt wronged instantly: "Mom! Dad went out again and came back sweaty. I called him but he ignored me!"

Qian Xiaojuan narrowed her eyes, nodded, and sat on the sofa.

Zhao Qingqing rummaged through the woman's bag: "Mom, you made new clothes again, why aren't there any for me this time?!"

Qian Xiaojuan glared at her and said, "You silly girl, I just made two skirts for you, and you forgot about them?"

Zhao Qingqing curled her lips: "You made two pairs, right? It won't stop you from making new clothes, right?"

Qian Xiaojuan put away the clothes and asked her, "What was your father's expression like when he came back?"

Zhao Qingqing glanced at the room: "He came back with a dark face and is going to take a shower now."

Qian Xiaojuan's slightly raised heart calmed down: "It's good that I didn't find it, it's good that I didn't find it."

Zhao Qingqing looked at her mother suspiciously: "Mom, what have you not found?"

Qian Xiaojuan realized that she had let the cat out of the bag, coughed lightly, and changed the subject: "Nothing, you heard wrong. I just met Teacher Ge, and she said that you haven't been going to class recently. What's going on?"

Zhao Qingqing's eyes suddenly turned red: "Why not go? I don't even have a piano, what am I going to do if I go and just watch? None of you care about me!"

Qian Xiaojuan smiled awkwardly: "Didn't I forget? Don't worry, I will write to your aunt later and ask her to send the piano back to you."

Zhao Qingqing was immediately delighted: "Really?! Then tell your aunt to give the violin to me. Jiang Sisi doesn't like playing the violin anyway!"

Qian Xiaojuan smiled and agreed: "Okay, are you satisfied now?"

Both mother and daughter were happy.

Mrs. Zhao came out with a kettle of hot water and frowned: "Qingqing, the violin belongs to your sister. You can just use it, why do you want someone to give it to you?"

Zhao Qingqing, who had just been coaxed, suddenly became unhappy and looked at her mother with a pout.

Qian Xiaojuan did not let her down. She looked at her mother-in-law with a smile and said, "You are right, Mom. That is indeed Sisi's piano. How can we give it to Qingqing?"

Zhao Qingqing became anxious when she heard this: "Mom?!"

Qian Xiaojuan glared at her and signaled her to stop making trouble.

Just as Mrs. Zhao was about to nod, Qian Xiaojuan's next words almost choked her.

"So, why don't we just ask Xueying to buy another one for Qingqing? Xueying said that she would treat Qingqing and Sisi equally. If Sisi has it, Qingqing can't be without it, right?"

She looked at Mrs. Zhao with a smile: "Mom, don't you agree?"

Old Mrs. Zhao looked at her daughter-in-law who was smiling gently in front of her. She didn't know whether to scold her or not. In the end, she was so angry that she ran to the kitchen in shame.

Zhao Qingqing looked at her mother in admiration: "Mom, you are so amazing! My classmates' mothers are afraid of their grandmothers, but in our family, it is our grandmother who is afraid of you!"

Qian Xiaojuan snorted softly: "That's right, don't you even look at who your mother is?!"

Zhao Qingqing's eyes rolled: "Mom, what does my dad do every day? He doesn't even go to work."

Qian Xiaojuan stood up with her bags and said, "Children should stay out of this adult matter."

Zhao Qingqing followed her into the house: "Mom, everyone else in our family favors Jiang Sisi, but you are the only one who treats me the best. Just tell me!"

Qian Xiaojuan was so annoyed by her pestering that she cursed her and turned around to close the door.

When they came back, the mother and daughter sat on the bed.

Qian Xiaojuan looked at Zhao Qingqing and said, "In the blink of an eye, you are already eighteen years old. You are an adult now. It's time for you to know."

Zhao Qingqing was confused: "Know what?"

Qian Xiaojuan said disdainfully: "Do you know why your mother has been able to do whatever she wants and buy whatever she wants for so many years without working or doing anything? Your grandmother doesn't dare to say a word?"

Zhao Qingqing shook her head: "I don't know."

Qian Xiaojuan smiled mysteriously: "Because, I know your secret that scares your grandma and dad."

"What secret?!"
