Chapter 40 Simple Fever Shock】

When Ye Qingyue heard Wang Shengying mention the name "Xu Juan", she always felt that it sounded familiar, but she couldn't remember it for a while.

Until she saw the Xu family quarrel and met Xu Juan again, Ye Qingyue finally remembered it.

In the previous life, there were two crazy people in Xiangyang Village.

One was Ye Xianghong and the other was Xu Crazy.

Compared with Ye Xianghong, who only went crazy when his daughter was injured, Xu Crazy was even crazier.

People in the village said that Xu Crazy would hold a straw doll and treat it as his dead son, laughing and crying. He

often ran from the end of the village to the head of the village in the middle of the night, crying loudly all the way, like a ghost crying.

During that time, Ye Qingyue stayed indoors because of the drowning incident, but he also heard the terrible crying outside, with unspeakable sadness.

She once secretly looked out through the crack in the window, and could only see a figure with ragged clothes and hair like dead grass.

At this time, Ye Xianghong would let her go back to bed, cover her ears, pat her back, and coax her to sleep.

Not long after, Xu Fengzi's husband came back, took her away, and never appeared again.

The villagers treated Xu Fengzi as a topic of conversation after dinner, but soon their attention was attracted by new gossip.

Ye Qingyue was also too annoyed by her brother's head hit, worsening illness, and the Ye family's mischief to pay attention to other people's affairs, and soon forgot about this little episode.

Until now, seeing the haggard Xu Juan, Ye Qingyue immediately thought of the figure she saw through the crack in the window that night, holding a straw doll, stumbling, and crying sadly.

It was Xu Juan.

A woman who became crazy because her son died in her previous life.

"Doctor Wang..."

Xu Juan stammered when she saw Doctor Wang, but she did not say bad things to Doctor Wang like Xu Genlai and the others did. She just seemed a little numb.

The doctor from the county hospital had just come to see Dabao and said that they had tried all the methods to reduce the fever, but to no avail.

The child can only rely on himself. If he can't bear it, she must be mentally prepared.

Xu Juan held Dabao's hand and cried silently.

She lost her parents when she was young, and was scolded by her relatives as a nemesis. Anyone who was close to her would be killed by her.

Xu Juan was a person from the new society, and she did not believe in ghosts and monsters at all.

But seeing Dabao's painful look because of the fever, Xu Juan suddenly felt that she was a nemesis.

She was the one who harmed her son!

"Dabao, I'm sorry for you..."

Xu Juan choked up, "It's all my fault that I brought bad luck to you. How great would it be if I could suffer for you and die for you?"

"Aunt Xu, didn't I tell you? Dabao has a cold caused by wind and heat. He can't sweat. It will only make his condition worse."

Suddenly, a voice sounded from beside Xu Juan.

Xu Juan was startled, and when she looked up, she saw a familiar, very beautiful young woman walking to the bedside and directly lifting the thick quilt on Dabao.

"No..."

Xu Juan subconsciously pulled the woman's hand, "You need to cover Dabao to sweat, and sweating can reduce the fever."

"That's a cold caused by wind and cold."

The woman pushed Xu Juan's hand away and explained slowly: "People with colds need to cover themselves to sweat, which helps the patient eliminate the cold in the body, but Dabao doesn't have a cold caused by wind and cold. Look at his runny nose, isn't it a little yellow?"

Xu Juan subconsciously said: "Not only the runny nose, but also the phlegm, which is yellow and thick."

"That's right."

The woman nodded: "Most patients with colds caused by wind and heat have clear runny nose and clear phlegm, while patients with colds caused by wind and heat mostly have yellow runny nose and thick phlegm, and they also have dry mouth and red and swollen throat."

"Dabao has indeed been shouting that he is thirsty..."

Xu Juan said, and hurried to look at Dabao's mouth, which was indeed red and swollen!

"Who are you?" Xu Juan stared at the woman blankly, and her originally desperate heart suddenly gave birth to a glimmer of hope.

"My name is Ye Qingyue, and I have learned a little bit of Chinese medicine."

After Ye Qingyue finished speaking, Xu Juan knelt down in front of her with a thump.

"Comrade Ye, please save my son! Please!"

Xu Juan cried out and wanted to kowtow to Ye Qingyue.

Ye Qingyue stopped her, "Aunt Xu, I can try, but you don't have to kneel down, get up and help me, I can't do it alone."

Hearing this, Xu Juan hurriedly got up, "How can I help?"

"First put the quilt on the empty bed next to you, then get some warm water, and a clean towel or cloth."

Ye Qingyue's calm voice also calmed Xu Juan's mood.

She quickly packed up the bedding and took the enamel pot to get water.

Ye Qingyue sat by the bed, took Dabao's hand, determined the three gates, and felt the pulse.

At this moment, she felt a line of sight, and when she looked back, she saw Doctor Wang staring at her.

"Qingyue, you can't treat people casually."

Doctor Wang reminded in a low voice, probably because he was afraid that Xu Juan would come back and hear it, "Your family is now separated, and you are living as an orphan and a widow. If the Xu family knew that you treated Dabao, they would most likely blame you!"

As a doctor, Doctor Wang certainly wanted to save Dabao.

But Doctor Wang didn't believe in Ye Qingyue's medical skills. After all, he had never heard of where she studied medicine.

After running the clinic for many years, it was not the first time that Doctor Wang had encountered medical disputes.

Losing money was a small matter. When it was serious, it almost cost him his life.

Doctor Wang was kind-hearted and reminded Ye Qingyue to prevent her from getting into trouble.

"I'm just trying it. There's no one else here. If the news gets out, just help me deny it, Doctor Wang."

Ye Qingyue blinked, "Besides, I really studied Chinese medicine. Granny Zhong taught me."

Hearing "Granny Zhong", Doctor Wang was surprised: "She actually taught you?"

Doctor Wang once misdiagnosed a patient because of his limited medical skills. It was Granny Zhong who reminded him and saved a life.

After that, Doctor Wang knew that Granny Zhong's medical skills were superior and he could not compare.

However, due to the sensitive identity of Granny Zhong, Doctor Wang did not dare to talk to her again after thanking her.

"Well, she saved me, and I secretly sent her food. After a while, the relationship was good..."

Before Ye Qingyue finished speaking, Doctor Wang waved his hand and signaled her to stop.

"Don't tell anyone about this."

Doctor Wang said, "Granny Zhong has not been rehabilitated yet. It's not a good thing to have anything to do with her now."

He looked at Ye Qingyue's hand taking the pulse, and after a few seconds of silence, he said, "If you really cure Dabao, when others ask you where you learned medical skills, you can say that I taught you, understand?"

Ye Qingyue knew that Doctor Wang was protecting herself, she nodded and concentrated on treating Dabao.

When Xu Juan came back with the water, Ye Qingyue already had the answer in her heart.

"Wet a towel with warm water, and wipe his forehead, neck, armpits, groin, and limbs. Repeat every fifteen minutes. Be careful not to wipe his chest and abdomen, and avoid the back of his neck and the soles of his feet."

While Xu Juan was doing her work, Ye Qingyue asked her a few more questions about Dabao's life before he fainted.

"I was half asleep last night when I heard Dabao screaming and saying there was a ghost outside."

Xu Juan said, "When I opened my eyes, Dabao was foaming at the mouth and twitching..."

After listening to this, Ye Qingyue pondered for a while and said, "Dabao has a wind-heat cold. When I saw him last night, his fever was not serious. Now his temperature is very high. Based on these symptoms and his pulse, he is probably having a febrile convulsion."

"This symptom usually occurs in children between six months and four years old. Dabao is eight years old now, so it is rare."

Ye Qingyue added, "But fortunately, he has a simple febrile convulsion. After being cured, there should be no sequelae."

"Simple?"

"Fever convulsion?"

Not to mention Xu Juan, even Doctor Wang was a little confused.

In the 1970s, medical resources were scarce, and many rural doctors were barefoot doctors who had not received systematic training.

Coupled with complex factors such as the special period, their medical knowledge was limited.

Doctor Wang didn't understand, but just thought he looked amazing, worthy of being a student taught by Granny Zhong.

"Sorry, Comrade Ye... No, Doctor Ye, I didn't understand what you said."

Xu Juan rubbed the towel in her hand a little stiffly, and looked at her hopefully: "You mean, my Dabao can be cured, right?"
