Chapter 29 Medical Skills
Mrs. Cui handed the purse to Jiang Zhiluo and then relaxed.
When she heard Zhiluo say this, she was both excited and happy, and smiles filled her eyes.
Although I know how much I have earned, going home to count the money is something I look forward to.
My daughter-in-law is so capable.
"Zhiluo, what should we do next? Should we go home and buy some beets so we can make brown sugar?"
Mrs. Cui felt full of energy now.
I wish I could go home and make brown sugar right now.
It turns out that business can be done this way. Look at the scene where Zhiluo was selling brown sugar just now, so many people were rushing to buy it.
This feeling is really great.
Jiang Zhiluo said, "Mom, don't worry, let's go shopping first and buy some things to take home."
"What are you buying?"
Mrs. Cui had no idea what to buy.
But then she thought that Zhiluo might need something, so she said, "Zhiluo, if there's anything you want to buy, just buy it. Mom supports you."
Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said, "Mom, take a look first, walk around and see if there are any good things."
Jiang Zhiluo was strolling around the town to check out the market situation and see if there were any business opportunities.
Also, maybe there are some cheap things on sale, which is a good opportunity to buy some.
As I was walking around, I heard someone in front of me crying, "Doctor, please..."
"Brother You, Brother You, don't scare your mother..."
"Doctor, Doctor Qiu, you are the best doctor in our town. You must have a way. Please save him quickly..."
The old doctor hurried over and said, "This is the disease again."
As he spoke, the old doctor gave acupuncture to the boy who was about seven or eight years old.
The boy, who had been looking crazy, started spitting when the needle pricked him.
"ah!"
The old doctor was shocked.
"Did he eat something bad?"
"I don't know, I don't know, wuwu, doctor, what's wrong with him, how could this happen!"
The woman was at a loss.
"Quick, call the young master over."
Jiang Zhiluo happened to see this scene when she walked over.
Many onlookers watched.
"Is this going to kill me?"
"Doctor Qiu is the best doctor in our town. He came from the capital. How could he kill someone with his medicine?"
"If Doctor Qiu kills someone, the medical clinic will have to close down. Will Doctor Qiu go to jail?"
"Dr. Qiu is a good doctor."
When Mrs. Cui saw this, she nervously grabbed Jiang Zhiluo's arm and said to herself worriedly, "I hope this person is okay!"
"Doctor Qiu has helped us."
Previously, when Mrs. Cui was ill, she couldn't afford the consultation and medical expenses. Doctor Qiu didn't charge them for the consultation and even let them pay the medical expenses in arrears.
Later, He Jin sold the book and went back to school.
Mrs. Cui had heard that Doctor Qiu was kind-hearted and had treated many poor people.
Old Doctor Qiu looked a little pale.
He had never seen such a situation before.
Jiang Zhiluo listened to what Mrs. Cui said, walked quickly forward, and pulled the clothes off the little boy's neck so that he could breathe.
Then she turned him over, took the silver needle from the old doctor's hand, and pierced several key acupoints on his body.
Soon, the little boy coughed a few times and then vomited out the contents of his stomach.
Only then did the little boy catch his breath.
"It's okay, it's okay now."
The onlookers all breathed a sigh of relief.
Just at this moment, a young man of about eighteen or nineteen years old rode over from outside the crowd. The young man had handsome features and a gentle aura like a jade-like beauty. He happened to see this scene.
Jiang Zhiluo saved the man and didn't stay long. She just took Mrs. Cui and left quietly.
The infirmary's manager saw the young man dismounting from his horse and said respectfully, "Young Master, you're finally here. It was truly a false alarm just now."
…
Old Madam Cui was still a little dazed. It was only after Jiang Zhiluo pulled her away for a distance and she could no longer see anyone that she came to her senses.
"Zhiluo, you just saved someone, Zhiluo, you... you know medical skills?"
Jiang Zhiluo looked at Mrs. Cui's surprised expression and nodded, "Yes, mother, I know a little bit."
"I learned a little from a traveling doctor before."
Jiang Zhiluo actually found it difficult to explain that she knew medical skills.
Her parents and brothers and sisters all knew that she had no medical skills, so when she suddenly discovered that she knew these skills, she could only find a lame excuse to explain it.
Moreover, she knew medical skills and indeed planned to open a pharmacy.
However, it takes a lot of money to open a pharmacy in the early stages, and the pharmacy needs a lot of medicinal materials.
In order to diagnose and treat patients, it is also necessary to change the world's views on women practicing medicine.
Moreover, the medical clinic she wanted to open was somewhat different from the medical clinics of this era.
She wanted to make some ready-made medicine, like those for headaches and colds.
If you have some minor ailments, you don’t have to go to the clinic to see a doctor. You can buy medicine directly based on your symptoms.
You can also buy some medicine and take it home as a backup. If you accidentally catch a cold and have a headache, you can take some medicine and it will be fine.
Needless to say, you can't find a doctor in the middle of the night and have to wait until the next day to go to the clinic.
It's better when the weather is good, especially in winter when it snows heavily and the clinics are closed. Some people have to endure the discomfort.
However, this is just her initial idea, and it is not so easy to actually implement it.
Because in this era, there were no women opening clinics to provide medical treatment.
Although Mrs. Cui was a little surprised, she didn't think much about it.
"It's a good thing you can do it. It was really thrilling just now."
"Zhiluo, you are really amazing. You saved someone's life."
Jiang Zhiluo said, "Mom, didn't you think my medical skills were shocking?"
She just pulled Mrs. Cui away because she didn't want to cause trouble.
Mrs. Cui had been through so much, and her thinking had long since changed. "What's the big deal? A woman's medical skills are her own abilities."
"You don't know, during exile, you could get sick and lose your life at any time. There was a female doctor in our group. Her father was an imperial physician, but he was implicated and exiled. Her ancestors practiced medicine, and according to family rules, the medical tradition was passed down to sons, not daughters. It was the imperial physician who was not so pedantic and taught his daughter some medical skills. So, thanks to that female doctor, we saved some people during the exile."
"This is about doing good and accumulating virtue. It's a good thing. Others won't be able to learn it even if they want to."
Mrs. Cui knew that some abilities required talent to learn.
Jiang Zhiluo's eyes lit up and she asked, "Mother, where is the female doctor?"
Mrs. Cui felt a little uncomfortable and shook her head, saying, "It's gone on the road."
Jiang Zhiluo's expression also changed, and the two of them didn't mention it again.
Jiang Zhiluo was in no mood to continue shopping. She said, "Mom, let's go to the butcher's counter first and buy something to take back."
I ate the chive dumplings from last night in the morning.
You can't eat leeks every day, so Jiang Zhiluo thought about making something else to eat.
She thought of willow buds, and maybe she could buy some meat and take it home to make willow bud buns.
Jiang Zhiluo originally wanted to make pies, but pies need to be fried in a pan, which requires oil.
It’s better to make dumplings and eat them directly after steaming or cooking.
"good."
"Oh, by the way, Mom, we only have a little salt at home. We need to buy some more salt to take back."
