Chapter 414: Sweet Practice of Medicine
"I'll go tell the village chief this great news. My eldest daughter-in-law, quickly catch the old hen at home and kill it to entertain this great benefactor."
Zhang A'man's husband ran out incoherently. He wanted to find the village chief to discuss the important matter, but was afraid of offending his benefactor.
Jiang Tangtang waved her hand and said, "No need to kill the chicken, it's just a small matter. Let's get your son treated first!"
Zhang Aman's husband was too excited to hear Jiang Tangtang's words and ran out.
Zhang Aman, however, came back to her senses from her excitement and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Then I'll trouble you, benefactor."
She thought Jiang Tangtang knew medicine and brought a few children to see her for treatment.
But I didn't expect that it wasn't her who knew medical skills, but that sweet-looking girl.
She was completely stunned.
Such a young child can treat patients.
Zhang A'man had some doubts in her heart, but her family was really poor, and the only valuable things in the house were the few old hens.
If she didn't let this child help her son with his medical treatment, she wouldn't be able to send her son to see another doctor.
Finally, she swallowed her doubts.
Jiang Tangtang was somewhat surprised by Zhang A'man's reaction.
Generally speaking, most people wouldn't believe a child could cure an illness. Although she had doubts in her eyes, she was able to endure it. This person is really not ordinary.
While Jiang Tangtang was distracted, Lu Tiantian had already acted like a little adult and started to take Zhao Daniu's pulse.
Although she is young, she has actually been studying medicine under Dr. Xue for several years.
Although the study time is long, it is mostly theoretical knowledge and there are few opportunities to see patients.
They are the type that are strong in theory but weak in practical application ability.
Therefore, she was very slow in taking the pulse.
Zhang Aman saw that she was frowning while checking her son's pulse and didn't speak for a long time. She was worried, "Little Doctor, is there something wrong with my son?"
Lu Tiantian withdrew her hand and said, "It's okay, let me take another look at his legs."
Zhao Daniu took his legs out from under the quilt somewhat embarrassedly.
While Lu Tiantian was examining Zhao Daniu, Zhang Aman couldn't help but say, "He didn't bleed when he fell, so we thought it wasn't a big deal and he could just rest at home. But now, after several months, not only has he not recovered, but his condition has gotten worse. Doctor, can you tell me what's going on?"
At first, she was very skeptical whether such a young child like Lu Tiantian really knew medical skills.
But since she chose to believe, she now believes in Lu Tiantian wholeheartedly.
Lu Tiantian frowned and said with embarrassment, "The bones inside were broken, and they weren't reattached at the time. Now the bones have grown back, but they're misplaced. If I want to stand up again, I need surgery to break up the dislocated bones and reattach them."
She had seen similar cases before and had heard her master talk about them, but she wasn't sure she could perform the surgery successfully.
"What should I do?" Zhang A'man lost his balance and collapsed to the ground.
My son has become paralyzed before he even gets married. How can he ever find a wife? His life is over.
What will he do in the future?
Lu Tiantian looked at Zhang A'man, who was kneeling on the ground, and then looked at Zhao Daniu, who was looking very sad with his head down, and said, "I heard from Master how to treat this kind of disease, but I haven't done it myself, so I'm not completely sure."
Zhao Daniu clenched his fists and asked, "Little Doctor, how confident are you?"
"Half sure." If it weren't for the operation yesterday and her mother's good medicine, she might not even be half sure.
"I'm willing." Zhao Daniu climbed up, endured the pain in his legs, and knelt down in front of Lu Tiantian and said, "Little Doctor, I'm willing to try even if I have half the chance. If I can't walk, I might as well die. Please, little doctor, save me."
Zhang Aman covered her mouth and cried, trying to stop her son from taking risks. But in the end, she said nothing except crying.
She knew in her heart that this was her son's only chance.
Letting this little girl treat the disease may not be reliable, but at least there is still a 50% chance.
If he didn't let this little girl treat his illness, he wouldn't have even half a chance.
Lu Tiantian bit her lip, hesitated for a while, looked at Jiang Tangtang and said, "Mom, I want to try."
"Do you really want to try it?" Jiang Tangtang also felt that Zhao Daniu was very pitiful, but compared to feeling sorry for Zhao Daniu, she cared more about her daughter's mental health. She didn't want her daughter to force herself to do this just because she sympathized with others.
So she told her that if she felt sympathy, she could give some money to the Zhao family and ask them to hire a doctor.
But Lu Tiantian said firmly that she really wanted to give it a try. However, after leaving the Zhao family, Lu Tiantian bit her lip and whispered, "Mom, can you let Gugu go and let Master take it over? I'm a little scared."
Jiang Tangtang nodded and said, "Great! It's time for your elder brother's follow-up visit, so inviting him over is perfect."
Lu Tiantian hugged her mother happily and said, "Thank you, Mom."
Jiang Tangtang tapped her forehead gently and said with a smile, "Don't thank me. Tell us what herbs and tools we need for Zhao Daniu's surgery. We'll prepare them in advance."
Lu Tiantian covered her forehead and said, "Master has given me the silver needles and other tools. Now I only need the herbs. But you don't need mother to help me prepare them. I can prepare them myself."
Seeing her daughter's expression, Jiang Tangtang couldn't help but feel a little proud. "Okay, then, prepare it yourself."
After returning to Wu Daoba's house, Jiang Tangtang found an opportunity to put Lu Tiantian into the space and asked her to prepare the medicinal herbs.
She found Lu Shiyan again and told him that her daughter had decided to help Zhao Daniu perform surgery and wanted to ask Dr. Xue to take over and supervise it.
Lu Shiyan said without thinking: "Then I will ride Gugu back and pick up Doctor Xue."
When he was in Xirong, he would occasionally ride Gugu back to Lingnan and other places to handle military affairs.
This is an easy thing for him.
The two were talking when suddenly some villagers came over.
Jiang Tangtang looked at the crowd of villagers outside the door and felt a little dazed.
Before she could ask what was going on, the villagers started talking about it.
It turned out that not long after she brought the child back, the news that a young doctor had come to the village spread throughout the village.
I heard that this young doctor was not only good-looking but also kind-hearted and treated patients for free. So many villagers who were not feeling well came to see him and wanted to see him.
There are also a few who come out of curiosity and want to see what the young doctor looks like and whether he can really treat patients.
For a doctor, this is a rare training opportunity, and Jiang Tangtang did not refuse it outright.
Instead, she asked the villagers to wait, saying that she had to ask her daughter first and seek her opinion before she could treat them.
The villagers found it strange that she, an adult, had to seek the opinions of children before making decisions.
