There is a row of faucets outside the bathhouse.
Su Yuhe only bought a bar of soap. She had just taken a shower and rubbed her body in the water for a while before putting her clothes in to wash.
It was the first time Alina saw someone washing clothes like this, and she was shocked: "You, you wash clothes like this?"
Su Yuhe looked at her blankly: "What else?"
Alina gestured and spoke with a frown.
Su Yuhe listened silently and replied weakly, "Actually, I use soap, which is already a luxury in the village. Others use soap nuts and wood ash. Alina, I can tell from your appearance that you come from a wealthy family. There are some things I haven't seen before, but that doesn't mean there's a problem."
Alina only half understood what he said. She didn't know what soapberry was either, so she nodded obediently: "Okay."
Su Yuhe was about to leave with the basin in her arms when she suddenly noticed some unusual redness on Alina's neck.
As a doctor, Su Yuhe took a closer look, put down the enamel basin, and leaned over: "Don't move."
Alina really didn't move, her body stiff: "What's wrong?"
Su Yuhe frowned: "Why is your neck suddenly so red? I didn't see it just now."
Alina looked puzzled: "I don't know, I'm waiting for you outside, it's so itchy, hiss~"
She couldn't help but reach out and scratch it.
That area became even redder.
It has already developed edema and looks very scary.
These obvious hives are obviously what we commonly call urticaria.
Su Yuhe grabbed her hand and said, "Stop scratching. It's getting worse. You have urticaria. Have you had it before?"
Alina opened her lips, a little anxious: "Yes, sister-in-law, measles, I have had it before, what should I do now? It's so itchy!"
This time the attack was very sudden. Within a few words, the entire area below the neck grew out.
Alina was wearing a square-necked dress, and her rash was clearly visible.
Alina felt itchy on her chest, and in fact, her arms also felt itchy.
The itch was so severe that Alina reached out to scratch it and cried, "It's so itchy, sister-in-law, I don't have any medicine."
She seemed to have forgotten that she was in the hospital.
Su Yuhe looked around. They were on their way back and there was a pavilion next to them.
"Stop scratching!" Su Yuhe said, pulling Alina to the pavilion, "Sit down and stop scratching."
Alina nodded vigorously, her shoulders shrugging. She felt itchy all over, but because of Su Yuhe's words, she forced herself to resist the urge to scratch.
Su Yuhe took Alina's hand and took her pulse. From the pulse, she not only confirmed that it was nettle, but she could even preliminarily diagnose that it was most likely a blood-heat type.
"Open your mouth and stick out your tongue."
Alina did as she was told.
When Su Yuhe saw that her tongue coating was thin and yellow, she became more certain that it was urticaria caused by blood heat.
She glanced at the strong sunlight outside. That's right, the disease is more likely to occur in summer, and the symptoms can be quickly aggravated in a hot environment.
"Stop scratching." Su Yuhe reminded again and went to rummage through her cloth bag.
Luckily I brought it down myself.
Alina saw Su Yuhe rummaging through her cloth bag, taking out a wooden box, and opening it to reveal another cloth bag.
When you open it, there are thin needles inside.
Alina was horrified: "You, sister-in-law, why do you have so many needles!"
Su Yuhe smiled softly: "I'm treating the nettles to relieve the pain. I don't have any medicine, so I'll give you acupuncture to relieve it."
Although she had a smile on her face, Alina thought it was very scary that Su Yuhe was holding a needle in her hand with a smile on her face.
She hid back and said, "I'm scared, sister-in-law. I'm going home to take medicine."
"When you get home, you'll be itching like crazy. It won't hurt. Just close your eyes if you're scared."
Perhaps Su Yuhe's voice and smile had a soothing effect, and Alina was no longer so scared. But when she saw the needles, she looked as if she was ready to die, and she closed her eyes tightly.
Su Yuhe laughed out loud: "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
"Hmm." Alina responded vaguely.
Su Yuhe looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she picked up the silver needle and gave Alina acupuncture, inserting the needle into several acupoints including Quchi, Xuehai and Zusanli.
Alina has had injections, and they are all very painful.
Su Yuhe felt a slightly cool sensation, just a little itchy, but not painful at all?
Alina gradually relaxed her body.
Su Yuhe left the needle in for twenty minutes, and then pulled it out when it looked suitable.
"How does it feel?"
Alina looked incredulous. "It doesn't seem to itch much anymore. Sister-in-law, what did you do to me? It's amazing."
Alina's current condition is an acute urticaria attack, and acupuncture will be ideal for relieving itching.
This was within Su Yuhe's expectations. She smiled and said, "It's good that the itching is gone. What I did to you is called acupuncture in our country."
"Why haven't I seen it?"
Su Yuhe was silent for two seconds, then said to Alina seriously, "No one can see this for now, so Alina, you must keep what happened just now a secret for me."
Alina pursed her lips: "Will it bring danger to you?"
"right."
Alina covered her mouth: "I promise not to tell."
Su Yuhe smiled and pinched her face: "Let's go back to the ward, otherwise they will be anxious. We haven't been back for so long."
As the two walked up the stairs, Su Yuhe suddenly saw a familiar-looking man.
He paused and looked back a few times.
Alina looked at her puzzledly: "What's wrong, sister-in-law? Do you know him?"
"No, I must have seen it wrong. His hair is half white now. He's not someone I know. It must be a coincidence that we look a bit similar."
…
In the ward.
After Su Yuhe and Alina left, Ding Huai put away his playful expression and sat down on the bed with a serious face:
"I heard that you were tricked by a bastard?"
Jiang Lin felt a little embarrassed. He paused and nodded vaguely: "I will deal with that person. I came to you to talk to you about the problem with the goods. I can't leave the hospital in the short term. You have to go to Jinmu County in person to find Xiaohai for the matter over there."
Ding Huai crossed his arms and thought for a moment: "Okay, I'll go there tomorrow. Do you have anything else to arrange?"
The two were talking, not paying attention to the time.
When Su Yuhe and the others returned, Jiang Lin said quietly, "Wife, why did you take so long?"
Ding Huai raised his hand and looked at his watch: "Yeah, I've been out for almost an hour."
Alina was about to share it with Ding Huai when she got close to him, but she remembered that Su Yuhe asked her to keep it a secret, so she pulled the corners of her mouth together and held it back.
Ding Huai saw the rash on Alina's body that had not subsided and frowned: "Alina, why did your hives flare up again? Come on, let me take you to see a doctor. He's in the hospital."
He reached out and grabbed Alina.
Ding Huai refused to have physical contact with her unless necessary. After finally coming, Alina was a little reluctant, but she still broke free and said, "I don't itch anymore. I don't want to see a doctor."
"It's so red now. If you don't see a doctor now, you'll itch so hard that you'll cry, and I won't comfort you."
