Chapter 436: Fubao studies medicine
When Wan Laoer came out of the clinic, he asked where the inn was.
Baiyun Town is a small town. It is not very big. There are only three streets and one inn.
Following directions, Wan Laoer walked along the main street and arrived at the second intersection.
At this time, Fubao was watching the old doctor treating a woman.
This is the second customer this morning.
The sunlight shone through the window lattice onto the floor of the clinic and on the bodies of several people. The morning light shone on Fubao's face, and the soft hair on her face could be clearly seen. Her fair skin was like amber, crystal clear in the sunlight.
The long eyelashes fluttered like a small fan, making people unable to help but take a second look.
"This girl is so pretty. Is she your granddaughter?" The woman said with a sallow face and a slight smile.
The doctor stroked his beard and smiled, "If I had a granddaughter like this, I would wake up with joy even when I was asleep."
Fubao was originally concentrating on seeing the patient, but she didn't expect that the two of them would start talking about her. She was a chatterbox to begin with, and at this moment she giggled adorably, revealing a row of little white teeth.
"Grandpa, I am your granddaughter, otherwise how can I call you grandpa?"
Fubao didn't feel shy at all. He ran over and hugged the old doctor's arm and shook it gently.
The old doctor laughed out loud.
The woman was also touched by Fubao's adorable appearance and couldn't help but chuckle along with him, but suddenly she frowned, which was seen by Fubao.
"Aunt, you don't look very well. Are you feeling unwell? Let my grandfather take a look at you."
The woman nodded, her eyes revealing a hint of uneasiness and discomfort.
She sat down slowly and said softly, "Doctor, I have been feeling unwell recently. I have pain in my lower abdomen and something is always coming out. I wonder what the disease is?"
The old doctor knew it was a gynecological disease when he heard it. He couldn't help but take a look at Fubao, wanting to teach her a thing or two. After all, if Fubao could learn gynecological skills, women all over the world would suffer less. Many women in large mansions were tortured by gynecological diseases and became half-human, but they dared not show it in front of others out of courtesy.
If there was a female doctor, their situation would be different. Many people could be cured and no longer suffer from the pain.
"Fubao, what's the difference between this aunt and the others?"
Fubao understood what she meant and hurried forward to carefully observe the woman's appearance and mental state.
"Grandpa, this aunt doesn't look good. She is pale with a bit of sallowness, bloodless, and haggard. There are deep dark circles under her eyes, as if she hasn't had a good rest for a long time. Her lips are dry and flaky, and her hair is not as good as Fubao's. It's not shiny, and she looks very weak."
The old doctor nodded in appreciation, "Yes, that's very well said. Look, Grandpa is here to check Aunt's pulse."
Fubao immediately looked at it without blinking.
The old doctor gently placed his hand on the woman's wrist, stroked his beard, and concentrated on feeling the changes in the woman's pulse. After a moment, he taught Fubao to feel the pulse as well.
Fubao was so happy that she was eager to try. She put her hand on the woman's pulse and felt something beating there. Could this be the pulse that Grandpa mentioned? Could it be possible to judge what disease the other person had just by the pattern of this beating? This was too magical, wasn't it?
Fubao felt the changes in his pulse, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, very irregular, and he didn't know any more.
"Grandpa, this aunt's pulse is irregular, sometimes fast and sometimes slow. Is Fubao's pulse the same?"
As Fubao spoke, she touched her wrist, only to find that her pulse was beating faster. Fubao became anxious on the spot.
"Grandpa, Fubao is dying. His pulse is beating so fast. Is he going to die?"
Fubao's face turned pale, obviously he was frightened.
The old doctor burst into laughter.
"Of course not. Children's pulses are naturally fast. The older they are, the slower their pulses become. This is the wonder of nature's creation of human beings."
Fubao suddenly realized, "Oh - so that's how it is. Fubao has learned something from this. Thank you, Grandpa."
Fubao bowed seriously, with his two little hands clasped above his head, looking very cute.
The old doctor pulled Fubao up and said, "Come on, Grandpa is going to check on this aunt. You can come with us."
Fubao nodded immediately and followed the old doctor like a little tail. He was much more steady than usual and no longer jumped up and down when he encountered something happy.
The old doctor took the woman to the side room and asked her to lie flat on the bed.
He gently pressed the woman's abdomen, observing her complexion and tongue coating, and asked, "How long have your symptoms lasted? Is there anything abnormal in your daily diet? Do you feel any discomfort in your life?"
The woman thought about it and said, "It's been about half a year. There's nothing wrong with my diet. But recently I've been feeling irritable and have pain in my lower abdomen. My period is rare and only happens once every two months. It only lasts two days. I wonder if this has anything to do with it?"
After the examination, the doctor said, "I see that your pulse is subtle and disordered, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, with no regularity at all. It is deep, thin and astringent, like a blocked river, unable to flow. Every beat is weak. This kind of pulse is caused by damp heat, which is mostly caused by careless living or depression, resulting in poor blood circulation in the body and damp heat accumulating in the lower part of the body."
The woman asked nervously, "Doctor, can it be cured? My child is still young and needs my care. My mother-in-law is old and can't take care of herself. There are many things to do at home. I can't die."
The doctor smiled and said soothingly, "You don't have to worry too much. Although this disease needs time to be treated, it is not incurable. I will prescribe some herbs for you to clear away heat and dampness and regulate qi and blood. You should take them on time for one month. But the most important thing is to keep a happy mood and not overwork. If you are relaxed and healthy, you will be free of worries and diseases as time goes by."
The woman quickly thanked the old doctor.
Fubao saw a ray of red light coming out from the woman's body, swirling into a circle on the old doctor's forehead, and slowly merging into the old doctor's body.
Fu Bao was amazed. It turned out that saving people could bring blessings? Then she wanted to be a doctor, cure diseases and save lives, so that Wanjia could receive blessings.
Fubao made up his mind secretly.
Seeing that the old doctor and the woman had already walked out of the room, she quickly moved forward to catch up with the old doctor.
The old doctor had already started writing the prescription, but Fubao didn't know many words, and she was very annoyed. She really regretted not studying hard in Shizi Village, otherwise she would be able to understand the prescription now.
Fubao secretly added learning to read to her list of plans.
But Fubao is very sweet-talker, and even though she can't read, it doesn't affect her knowing what medicines the doctor has prescribed.
The woman took the prescription and went to get the medicine. Fubao took advantage of the fact that there were no patients in the clinic and asked the old doctor: "Grandpa, what medicine did you just prescribe?"
The old doctor had never seen such a studious and inquisitive child, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, thinking how great it would be if such a good seedling was his granddaughter.
