Chapter 164 Stealing
Mu Bai sighed and continued, "You know that people don't eat well these days. If you eat something that's hard to digest, your bowel movements will be even worse. The old man is used to being simple. We sent him fine grains before, but he gave them away to others. Now the doctor gave him some nutritional powder to try, just to give him some strength, otherwise the enema will be useless. But I didn't expect that after taking the nutritional powder, the situation became worse."
"It has developed into intestinal strangulation. Not to mention nutritional powder, even elixirs are inedible. If you continue to eat with intestinal strangulation, it will only increase the burden on your intestines."
After all, there was no intestinal obstruction surgery at that time, and even if there was surgery, there were considerable risks. After all, the sanitary conditions and rescue conditions at that time were simply not comparable to those in the future. In that era, undergoing intestinal obstruction surgery was almost the same as committing suicide.
Mu Bai felt a little more at ease after listening to Shen Ruoqing's clear and logical words.
"Is there any solution?"
"It's not that there is no solution at all. The problem is that in the old man's condition, no matter what he eats, it will be useless. Because no matter what he eats, it will eventually enter the intestines for absorption. If the front is blocked, even the elixir in the back can't be digested. The solution is to completely empty the foreign matter in the old man's intestines first, and then not replenish electrolytes for a period of time... this... is to drink more sugar and salt water, take anti-inflammatory drugs, and use a small amount of nutrient powder after the swelling of the intestines has subsided. When the intestines are completely restored to normal, it is the last resort. Find an old man, preferably over 80 or 90 years old. Of course, a hundred years old is better, but he must be a healthy old man, and then get his feces, eat it, and rebuild the healthy intestinal flora. Maybe it can cure the old man's disease."
Mu Bai was stunned when he heard this alternative treatment method: "Eat, eat feces?"
"Yes, that is, eating feces. I am not kidding you, I am serious about this treatment method. The old man's intestines should have been severely damaged at this time. Even if he can excrete feces, it is impossible for him to recover to a healthy state. If he doesn't want to eat, he may suffer from it again in the future, and it will definitely be more serious than the first time."
Mu Bai was also embarrassed when he heard this. If he could choose, he would definitely want to cure the old leader. After all, the old leader had been very good to him, a junior, for so many years. But the problem was that the treatment method was special, so he didn't know what to do.
"Mu Bai, there's no rush for this. We can discuss anything after we get to Beijing and see the old man. In fact, the treatment plan I mentioned is not 100% guaranteed to be effective. What if your mother-in-law develops cancer... this... means other serious diseases. Oh, you know what cancer is, that's good, then my method won't work, the specific situation depends on the specific condition. And you should discuss it with the old man's family. After all, this treatment method is very special, and most people may not be able to accept it. You must inform them in advance and do the work to convince them."
"Okay, I will do some ideological work with the old man's family then." Mu Bai said with a complicated expression. He didn't expect that Shen Ruoqing really had a treatment method, but what he didn't expect was that this treatment method was so special.
"What about cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases?"
"I dare not make a fuss about this. I have to see the person in person to know what is going on."
After talking so much, Shen Ruoqing took another sip of water.
The carriage fell silent.
Mu Bai didn't say anything else, and Shen Ruoqing took another sip of water strategically.
Well, nothing to do again.
Mu Bai opened his mouth as if preparing to say something.
The train attendant pushed a small dining table and shouted, "It's time to eat. It's 80 cents per portion, one meat and one vegetable!"
"It's time for dinner. I'll go buy some food." Mu Bai went to buy some food.
There was nothing to do after dinner, so Shen Ruoqing had to go to bed again.
However, because his mind was full of thoughts about cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and intestinal obstruction, Shen Ruoqing was not actually asleep. He was just thinking with his eyes squinted.
Suddenly, Shen Ruoqing felt a figure coming to his bed and a hand reaching out.
Shen Ruoqing immediately opened his eyes and grabbed the restless hand.
"Little boy, what are you doing?" Shen Ruoqing looked at Baoer, and Baoer's hand was actually reaching out to the shoulder bag she had placed inside.
"I, I..." Baoer was a little flustered and speechless when he was discovered unexpectedly.
"What are you doing to my dear grandson!" The aunt's voice rang out, and she quickly protected Baoer behind her.
"Auntie, it seemed like your grandson was trying to steal my things just now?" Shen Ruoqing sat up.
"You're talking nonsense. My little Bao'er is usually very obedient and well-behaved. How could he steal your things?" The old lady looked around. "You little girl, didn't I just have a little quarrel with you before? Do you have to frame my good grandson like this?"
"You should know what kind of person your grandson is. You should also know whether I have framed him or not. Everyone was taking a nap, and your grandson sneaked over to my bed. What was he trying to do? Do I need to tell you about it?"
"He's just a curious child who likes to walk around. Do you have to be so defensive? How could such a young child steal things?" said the old lady.
After half a day, there were many new passengers in this carriage. After hearing what the old lady said, they also felt that there was some truth in it.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Little girl, did you misunderstand something? He is just a child."
"What's wrong with the child? Who says children can't be thieves? Auntie, I saw your grandson trying to steal the candy from my friend's pocket yesterday, but I didn't dare to point it out because I thought the child was still young. Now he has done it again, and you can tell at a glance that this is not the first time he has done it. I just don't know if he was caught by my friend all at once or if he had to walk around for several rounds before being caught." Mu Bai also sat up in the middle bunk.
After hearing this, some people quickly checked the belongings they were carrying.
"My imported chocolate is gone!" said a stylishly dressed woman in the lower bunk next to me. "And the money in my bag is gone too!"
Shen Ruoqing raised her eyebrows. If this child stole candies or something, it could be said that the child was greedy, but he actually stole money?
The child just hugged the old lady, lowered his head and said nothing.
"Did you steal it? This child was the only one walking around in the carriage just now!"
"You're talking nonsense. You must have not taken good care of your things. Who knows when they fell. How can you just casually accuse my child?" The old lady protected Baoer behind her like a hen protecting her calves. "I don't need your little stuff at home. Is there any need to steal it?"
Indeed, judging from their clothes, the lady and the boy looked well off.
