Then he spoke to his aunt who was waiting beside him:
"Your child has a weak spleen and stomach, and poor absorption. Does he often have diarrhea?"
The aunt nodded repeatedly:
"Little girl, you are right. I really have no idea what to do with this child. He has had diarrhea since he was young! He has diarrhea for several days at a time! What can I do? I went to the hospital, but the doctor didn't have any good ideas. He said that the child has a weak spleen and stomach, and suggested that he eat some Shimusheng every day. He said that the child will get better when he grows up. He has been eating it for several years, but he still has diarrhea."
Sheng Kangning said:
"I'll write you a recipe for dietary therapy. Your child has a weak spleen and stomach, and it's not something that can be changed overnight. It takes time to slowly recuperate."
The aunt smiled and nodded:
"Okay, little girl, don't worry, I'll listen to you. I'll feed the child as long as you tell me!"
Sheng Kangning smiled and said:
"Just hold on for half a year and that's about it!"
Sheng Kangning took out a piece of paper and pen from his cloth bag, wrote a recipe for dietary therapy, handed it to the aunt, and said:
"Let your child go outdoors more often and get some sun. It's good for their health. I'll teach you a set of massage techniques to nourish the spleen meridian."
Upon hearing this, Chu Nanzhou asked Li Youfu to ask the passengers next to him to vacate their seats.
The aunt hurriedly picked up her child and laid him flat on the bed.
In order to get the child to cooperate, Chu Nanzhou asked someone for two candies and gave them to the child's mother.
Sheng Kangning taught the mother how to massage her child to replenish the spleen meridian.
After making sure that she had learned it, Sheng Kangning stood up and prepared to go back.
She saw several women looking at her, wanting to say something but stopping themselves.
Sheng Kangning smiled and said:
"The prescription I just gave to that aunt is suitable for most people, including the elderly, children, men and women. It contains the herb Euryale ferox. I've read a book before that said that Su Dongpo, a great writer in the Song Dynasty, loved to eat Euryale ferox and paid attention to health preservation. In his old age, Su Dongpo was healthy and strong, with a ruddy complexion, and looked much younger than his actual age. If you need it, you can copy the prescription back. Euryale ferox is not difficult to buy."
Chu Nanzhou took Sheng Kangning and Li Youfu out of carriage number 10.
"Let's go directly to the dining car! You said to eat on time! It's late now!" Chu Nanzhou turned around and said to Sheng Kangning with a smile.
Sheng Kangning smiled:
"Let's go back. I bought some sesame pancakes before I got on the train. I can just soak one of them when I get back!"
Chu Nanzhou raised his eyebrows:
"Listen to me, keep your sesame pancake, and let's go to the dining car!"
Li Youfu immediately said:
"You guys go ahead. I won't go. I brought some buns with me. If I don't eat them, they'll go bad!"
Li Youfu returned to the carriage, and Chu Nanzhou took Sheng Kangning to the dining car.
Chu Nanzhou bought two dishes and a soup.
The portion is big and the taste is okay, but it’s not cheap. Fortunately, you don’t need food coupons, just pay money.
The soup is fermented glutinous rice and egg soup, with sugar in it, so it tastes sweet.
Sheng Kangning liked it very much and drank half a bowl before dinner.
In the middle of the meal, Sheng Kangning thought of Dr. Liu and Dr. Dai and was slightly absent-minded.
"What are you thinking about?" Chu Nanzhou asked.
Sheng Kangning tilted his head and frowned slightly:
"I was thinking about those two doctors. Do you still remember the doctor named Dai? He was carrying a bulging briefcase, which must have been filled with medicine, and quite a lot of it.
I don’t know if he has any medicine for stomach problems in his briefcase. If so, why doesn’t he take it out?
When I go out, I always bring some regular medicine if conditions permit.
This is a very normal thing, especially taking some medicine for fever and stomach problems with you.
Of course, this is just my guess!
However, they are doctors, so it is normal for them to bring medicine!"
Chu Nanzhou's eyebrows jumped and he asked:
"Are you sure there are drugs in his briefcase?"
Sheng Kangning nodded:
"What I smelled was a mixture of medicines, so I thought there was more than one kind of medicine in his briefcase."
Chu Nanzhou said "oh" and didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he started eating with big mouthfuls.
The man ate very quickly. When Sheng Kangning had only finished half of his bowl of rice, Chu Nanzhou had already finished his second bowl of rice.
When he looked up, he saw that Sheng Kangning had not finished eating, so Chu Nanzhou slowed down.
After finishing a bowl of rice, Sheng Kangning put down his chopsticks and served himself half a bowl of fermented glutinous rice and egg soup.
Chu Nanzhou was already eating his third bowl of rice.
After Sheng Kangning put down the bowl, he said, "I'm done eating."
Chu Nanzhou glanced over and asked, "Are you sure you're full?"
Sheng Kangning nodded.
The man quickly finished the food on the plate and drank the remaining half of the fermented glutinous rice and egg soup. Then he looked up and said to Sheng Kangning:
"Let's go! It's time to go back!"
Chu Nanzhou walked in front of Sheng Kangning, and the cool breath of the man swept across her nose.
Sheng Kangning walked behind the man, and couldn't help but look at his lean waist and raised his eyebrows.
This appetite is indeed amazing, but after eating so much, I feel like there is no change!
Where has all the food gone!
…………
In the carriage, Zhou Xiaoran did not go back to his own bunk to rest, but sat on Chu Nanzhou's bunk waiting for a few people.
Seeing Li Youfu coming back, Zhou Xiaoran immediately stood up and looked behind Li Youfu:
"Where are they?"
Li Youfu smiled and said, "Let's go to the dining car to eat!"
Zhou Xiaoran glared at Li Youfu and said, "They are the only ones going, why don't you go?"
Li Youfu smiled:
"I bought some buns before I got on the train. If I don't eat them, they'll go bad! Besides, the food in the dining car is expensive!"
After saying that, he took out some buns from his luggage and started eating them with hot water.
Zhou Xiaoran muttered softly:
"Sheng Kangning brought her own dry food, how could she be so shameless and insist on following Brother Chu to the dining car! Shameless!"
She was so mad!
Xu Hongmei asked about carriage number ten.
Li Youfu told them what he saw while eating.
Finally, I asked Xu Hongmei:
"Who did Kang Ning learn medical skills from? He's so amazing!"
Xu Hongmei shook her head:
“I’m not sure who I learned this from.”
Zhou Shen, who was on the upper bunk, answered:
"I know this. Kang Ning learned it from her grandmother! Their Ling family is a family of traditional Chinese medicine! It has been passed down for several generations!"
Zhou Xiaoran snorted coldly beside him:
“What’s so great about that!”
After saying that, he sat down in the aisle, glancing towards the dining car from time to time.
Zhou Shen shook his head after seeing this.
After Chu Nanzhou came back, he entrusted Xiaobao to Sheng Kangning and Xu Hongmei, and then called Zhou Shen out of the car.
Zhou Xiaoran chased after him, not knowing what Chu Nanzhou said to her.
Anyway, after a while, Zhou Xiaoran came back dejectedly, climbed onto his bunk, and went to sleep with his head covered.
It was not until the next morning that Chu Nanzhou and Zhou Shen came back and brought breakfast to everyone, including Li Youfu.
Breakfast includes millet porridge, steamed buns, dumplings and tea eggs.
