How could Zhang Laosan and his gang of rough men have handkerchiefs? They immediately stared at the women from the Yu family in the room. Although Yu Zhou was very reluctant, she knew that Zhang Laosan was not someone to be trifled with, so she reluctantly handed over her handkerchief.
Zhang Laosan took the handkerchief and without asking anyone else to do it, he personally held it to his son's mouth and let him spit.
After spitting out the phlegm, Yu Zhou and Zhao quickly turned their faces away, their eyes full of disgust.
Yu Jiao reached out and took the handkerchief. She stared at the boy's spit carefully for a long time before placing the dirty handkerchief on the table.
Yu Jiao pointed at the boy's ribs and asked, "Do you often feel pain here?"
The boy touched the place Yu Jiao pointed and nodded.
Yu Jiao looked at Zhang Laosan, "Does he often suffer from loss of appetite, numbness in his hands and feet, constipation, slurred speech? Also, dizziness, irritability and anger?"
Zhang Laosan nodded repeatedly and his attitude changed a lot. He didn't expect that this unreliable girl in front of him was really capable and the symptoms she described were almost correct.
"My son has all the symptoms you mentioned earlier, but he is well-behaved and sensible, and has never been irritable or angry." said Zhang Laosan.
Yu Jiao sneered, "Never? As a father, I'm afraid you don't know your son very well."
Zhang Laosan was speechless and puzzled. He said dryly, "My son is really well-behaved and rarely gets angry."
The sturdy man standing behind Zhang Laosan scratched his head and stammered, "Boss, Brother Qi can't play with the other kids in the village. They often fight. My sister-in-law protects him so well that I never dared to tell you."
Zhang Laosan explained in a protective manner, "Those rascals often teased my brother Qi because he had epilepsy. How can they blame my brother Qi!"
Yu Jiao didn't care about Zhang Laosan's words and asked Old Man Yu, "Can I get moxibustion at the pharmacy at home?"
Mr. Yu nodded quickly, "Yes, I'll go get it now."
Zhang Laosan looked at Yu Jiao and said in a much more gentle tone, "Girl, can you cure my child's epilepsy?"
Yu Jiao nodded. "He has epilepsy caused by internal wind and phlegm. It can be cured."
When Yu Jiao said this, the boy who was sitting quietly, his misty eyes suddenly lit up and he stared at Yu Jiao closely.
Zhang Laosan rubbed his hands excitedly and was so happy that he didn't know what to say.
Old Man Yu retrieved the moxa from the herb room. Yu Jiao picked up the moxa and looked at the boy. She suddenly remembered that she was now in Taiyan, not the world of her previous life where there was no gender distinction in medical consultations but only a doctor-patient relationship.
She couldn't help but feel a headache and frowned slightly.
When Zhang Laosan saw her expression, his heart suddenly tightened and he asked nervously, "Miss... Miss... what's wrong?"
Yu Jiao shook her head, "Nothing."
She said to Yu Ruhai, "It's inconvenient for me to do it for you, so take him to the herb room and use moxa to fumigate his two genitals for one stick of incense."
Old Master Yu understood instantly and took the moxa from Yu Jiao's hand with a strange expression. He was very curious about what strange medical methods Yu Jiao's master had taught her. To treat epilepsy, he had to use moxa to fumigate the front and back genitals.
Zhang Laosan didn't know where Eryin was, and said with some worry, "Miss Meng, Doctor Yu is old, can he do it? Why don't you treat the child yourself, so I can feel more at ease."
Yu Ruhai's face looked a little ugly. He didn't expect to be looked down upon to this extent. He was really embarrassed.
"Of course it can be done. Our old man is a doctor after all. You don't have to worry about this." Yu Jiao didn't want to embarrass Yu Ruhai too much, so she said lightly.
After an incense stick of time, Yu Ruhai and Zhang Qi walked out from the west room. Zhang Laosan looked at his son nervously, "Brother Qi, what happened?"
Zhang Qi changed his pale complexion and put on a relaxed smile. He stretched his limbs and said, "Dad, I feel so comfortable. I feel so relaxed all over."
This was the first sentence the boy said when he arrived at the Yu family. Zhang Laosan was excited and said happily, "Miss Meng... Doctor Meng, my son's epilepsy is cured now?"
"How can it be so easy?" Yu Jiao said, "His mind is confused by wind and phlegm, and he needs to be slowly treated. I will prescribe a prescription, and the patient needs to take the medicine on time and come for moxibustion every two days. After a month, if the wind and phlegm in the body disappears, the prescription can be stopped, but the moxibustion must continue."
Zhang Laosan nodded repeatedly, his attitude humble and respectful, "I will do whatever you say as long as it can cure my son."
Yu Ruhai had already taken a pen and paper, ready to write a prescription, but Yu Jiao said, "You don't have to write the prescription."
She looked at Zhang Laosan and said, "Write down the recipe."
Zhang Laosan nodded quickly and said to the men behind him, "Remember this carefully."
Yu Jiao said slowly, "Grind two qian of gansui into powder, put it in a pig's heart, tie it tightly, wrap it with paper, simmer it until it's cooked, take out the medicine, add one qian of cinnabar powder, divide it into four portions, take one portion daily, and mix half with boiled pig heart decoction."
Zhang Laosan repeated it again, "Miss Meng, I've written it all down."
Yu Jiao reminded him, "The pig heart needs to be fresh."
Yu Ruhai took Gan Sui and Cinnabar and gave them to Zhang Laosan. Because of Zhang Laosan's attitude, he asked for a huge amount of one or two taels of silver as the consultation fee.
Zhang Laosan was overly happy just now, but now he calmed down when he heard the consultation fee. He had spent a lot of money on his child's medical treatment over the years and was often cheated by those black-hearted doctors.
"I can pay the one or two taels of medical fee, but if the child's epilepsy symptoms have not disappeared after three months, I will come back to collect the fee." Zhang Laosan glanced at Yu Ruhai and said with a forced smile.
Yu Ruhai suddenly felt guilty, but he still tried to save face and gave a false smile. After sending Zhang Laosan and the others out the door, Yu Ruhai went up to the gate, spat on the ground, and cursed a few words with gritted teeth.
Back in the main hall, Yu Ruhai asked Yu Jiao with some concern, "Can the Zhang family's child's epilepsy really be cured?"
Yu Jiao glanced at him and nodded.
Yu Ruhai felt a little relieved. The silver in his arms wasn't even warm yet, and he didn't want to return it.
After Yu Ruhai put the silver away, he had more thoughts in his mind. If Meng Yujiao could really cure epilepsy, could she also cure Fifth Brother's body?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Yu Ruhai hurried to the main hall, his face full of eagerness, "Meng girl, have you ever felt the pulse of Fifth Brother? Is there any prescription that can regulate his body?"
Yu Jiao thought for a moment and shook her head, "Although I haven't checked Fifth Brother's pulse yet, I know a little about his physical condition. Fifth Brother's body is seriously damaged and it's difficult to remedy it."
Yu Qizhe has the tendency to die young, and what those doctors said is true.
Yu Ruhai was disappointed when he heard this, but seeing that Yu Jiao had not made up her mind, he pressed on, "Why is it so difficult to remedy the situation? Is there any way to remedy it?"
