Chapter 208: Medical Consultation
Lying on the bed, the warm candlelight made Xu Miaomiao drowsy, and she immersed herself in it and slowly fell asleep.
Xu Miaomiao had a good sleep that night, but people in the capital city had trouble falling asleep.
Song Weiwei paced back and forth at home anxiously, slapping her palms in annoyance.
"Okay." Gu Yuanniang touched her forehead helplessly, looked at Song Weiwei and said, "You're making me dizzy. Come sit down and take a rest."
"No, I can't calm down."
Song Weiwei walked around the room for a few times, then sat down on a chair beside her and drank all the tea on the table, but she was still feeling irritable.
"How can we continue our business after these people made such a fuss?" Song Weiwei said dejectedly, "If we hadn't met that kind husband today, we would have been hit to death by the turnips."
He refilled the teacup in front of Song Weiwei with water, looked at her and said, "Now that things have come to this, I can only hope that Xuguo can find some loopholes by following that person."
Seeing that it was getting late, Gu Yuanniang urged Song Weiwei to go to bed early.
Although what happened yesterday, Gu Yuanniang still prepared a carriage to go to the department store at dawn.
"Are you going today?"
Song Weiwei looked at Gu Yuanniang who was fully prepared and spoke in confusion.
"Miao Miao said that if we open the door sometimes and close it sometimes, we may lose customers, so we have to go no matter what."
Hearing what Gu Yuanniang said, Song Weiwei got on the carriage without hesitation.
When I arrived at the store, Xuguo had just got up and simply cleaned the first floor.
"Xuguo is quite annoyed that you have to keep a closer eye on her these days." Gu Yuan's mother looked at the boy and gave him instructions.
Xuguo nodded and looked back at Gu Yuanniang: "Don't worry, Sister Gu, I will keep a close eye on them."
Watching Xuguo leave, Gu Yuanniang also sat on the chair and stared at the empty door in a daze.
The warm sun shone onto the bed through the gap in the window. Xu Miaomiao stretched lazily and got up from the bed.
"Madam Xu, it's still early, why don't you sleep a little longer."
As soon as she went out, Xu Miaomiao saw her sixth sister-in-law busy in the house.
"I don't want to sleep anymore." Xu Miaomiao reached out to take what the woman was holding, but she dodged her hand.
"You are the guest, I will do the work."
The morning is a simple meal of the day. It cannot be said to be rich, but it can satisfy the basic need to fill the stomach.
"Ms. Xu, we're going to go check on the seedlings later. I hope you're okay at home by yourself." While eating, the woman looked at Xu Miaomiao with some concern and said.
Xu Miaomiao shook her head.
"I also do farm business outside. How about I go with you to take a look? Maybe I can help?" Xu Miaomiao looked at the woman tentatively and said.
Hearing this, the woman's eyes lit up: "Really? That's great, it just so happens that the rice seedlings have been sick these days, and I was wondering, with you here, you will definitely be able to find the problem."
After quickly finishing breakfast, Xu Miaomiao followed the couple to the field.
The green seedlings really didn't look very alive. If it hadn't been like this before, Xu Miaomiao would have thought it was because she vomited here.
"Mrs. Xu, look at this, what should we do?"
Squatting down and touching a leaf of the seedling, Xu Miaomiao looked at the woman and asked, "What kind of water do you usually use to irrigate the plants?"
"It's all well water." The woman pointed to the well in her backyard and said, "It's the well water we dug in our backyard."
"That's right."
Xu Miaomiao clapped her hands, stood up, looked at the woman and spoke.
"Madam Xu, what does this mean?"
The man next to him said something confused when he saw this.
"The well water is too cold, and the roots of the seedlings are getting quite cold, so they look sick." Xu Miaomiao explained, "I see there is spring water here, so it's better to use spring water for irrigation."
"I see."
The man suddenly realized and looked at Xu Miaomiao with gratitude: "Madam Xu, thank you so much."
Xu Miaomiao touched his head: "You're welcome."
Just as I was about to enter the house, I heard a cry of surprise from a house not far away: "Ah! My child."
"This is?"
Xu Miaomiao looked at the woman in confusion and shook her head.
"It's the child of Lao Wu's family that I told you about who is sick, otherwise he wouldn't have robbed your goods."
"I see." Xu Miaomiao nodded thoughtfully: "By the way, I know some medical skills, why don't you let me go over and take a look?"
"Mrs. Xu, you also know medical skills?" The man next to her opened his eyes wide in disbelief: "You look so thin and small, how come you know everything?"
"You are too polite, Sixth Lord."
"In that case, I'll take you over to talk to Fifth Sister-in-law."
As she spoke, the woman pulled Xu Miaomiao towards the next house.
When I first entered, the man was pacing anxiously outside the door.
"Sixth sister, why did you bring her here?"
"Fifth brother, she knows medical skills."
"Really?" The man's pupils shrank rapidly as he looked at Xu Miaomiao. Seeing her nod carefully, he led her in.
The woman was crying heart-wrenchingly while holding the baby in her arms. Anyone who saw this scene would feel heartbroken.
"Let me see the child first."
Xu Miaomiao squatted down to look, stretched out her hand, looked at the woman and spoke.
The woman's hands were shaking as she handed the child over.
Perhaps because he was held in his arms for too long, the child's cheeks turned red.
First, she reached out and touched the forehead of the child in her arms, which was surprisingly hot.
There were patches of red rashes on my body, which looked scary.
Xu Miaomiao immediately realized that the fever was caused by urticaria. If not treated immediately, such a young child might lose his life.
“How many days have you had this symptom?”
"It's been about three or five days. He didn't have a fever before, but he had a red rash on his body. But the day before yesterday he started having a fever again and it hasn't gone away." The woman spoke anxiously, looking at the baby on the bed, her voice trembling.
Xu Miaomiao nodded and instructed the man next to her: "Go boil a pot of hot water and add some pepper and salt."
"What is Madam Xu going to do?" Sixth sister-in-law next to her was also a little confused and asked Xu Miaomiao.
"These things are used to give her a bath." Xu Miaomiao said as she picked up the paper and pen on the table and wrote down a prescription: "The method just now can only alleviate this symptom. If you want to cure it completely, you must take medicine."
As soon as Xu Miaomiao finished speaking, everyone started to feel troubled again. They had lived here for a long time and had no communication with the outside world. If they wanted to buy things, they were afraid that they would not have enough money.
Understanding everyone's difficulties, Xu Miaomiao took out her wallet
