Cheng Rui pursed his lips, quickly composed himself, still feeling a little embarrassed.
"There is something I need to ask you to come with us for a house call, but given your health..."
Even if she's anxious, she can't ignore the doctor's health, can she?
Besides, the doctor himself is feeling unwell, experiencing dizziness; how can they feel at ease?
It's not simple, even Ming's father, who was with them, was a little worried.
"Yeah, Lao Mu, with your health, can you really go out?"
"fine,"
Old Mu waved his hand, let go of Little Mu, and steadied himself.
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
He was stubborn, but unfortunately his body couldn't keep up; he started swaying after standing for less than two minutes.
"Huh?"
"Lao Mu?"
Even a simple heart is on edge. How can I feel at ease with this situation?
However, there really is no other way at the moment. The only doctor in the area is Old Mu, and the only other doctor is Old Man Liu Dazhen from Liujiatun. But Old Man Liu fell ill a few days ago and is still bedridden.
Fortunately, Lao Mu was indeed tenacious and quickly stabilized his body, which relieved Cheng Rui and Jian Dan's anxiety a little.
Once the person is found, a swift and decisive action is necessary.
The car was already waiting at the door. Lao Mu went back to the cowshed to get almost all the herbs he could use, then entrusted Xiao Mu to Ming's father. Jian Dan also carried a small basket on his back, which was not big and had a lid on it, in case he needed anything and used the basket as a cover. The three of them then got into the car.
With all this dawdling, it was getting late, and Cheng Rui started to get anxious. He couldn't sit still in the car and kept looking out the window.
Jian Dan didn't try to persuade him. At this time, words were useless. Nothing could compare to letting him see Cheng An's condition with his own eyes.
Upon seeing the simple statement, Cheng Jin's first words were...
"So what exactly made you come here?"
Cheng Rui had already dragged Lao Mu into the ward. Cheng Jin's complexion wasn't good either; his lips were chapped and his eyes were red, clearly indicating that he had stayed up all night.
Jian Dan followed him inside, asking questions as she went.
"Uncle, how's Xiao An? Is he still running a fever?"
Cheng Jin rubbed his eyes.
"The fever goes down, then the fever comes down again, you've really worn Old Mu out like this."
"Okay, let Lao Mu take a look and see if it can be moved. If it can, then take it to the hospital in the county town."
"Uncle, didn't we build a hospital here? Is there only one doctor?"
Jian Dan was puzzled from the moment she heard the news. Was the hospital going to close down without Lao Yang?
Speaking of this, Cheng Jin also had a lot to say.
"Hey, to put it nicely, it's a hospital. We've already got everything set up, and I've even recruited the people."
"Look, your second aunt went over there, and they set up their own health center. They transferred all my staff away, and now this big hospital is so deserted; Old Yang is practically the only doctor there."
He secretly regretted it. He always thought that with Lao Yang around, he would have nothing to worry about and hadn't prepared any backup plans. He thought that these few days would be fine, but the situation was too urgent, and he couldn't wait for Lao Yang to come back at all.
"Why wasn't it taken to the hospital?"
Speaking of this, Cheng Jin felt even more helpless; he knew he should ask that question.
"Don't even mention it. After the accident yesterday, I sent someone to the county town to check, but none of the doctors at the hospital were there."
Only after asking the nearby residents did I learn that the soldiers in the county town had recently gone mad, smashing and looting everywhere.
The doctors at the existing hospital, some of whom learned medicine from senior doctors through informal means, and others who passed the formal examinations, all of them got into trouble.
I even had someone check on it yesterday, and it's still a mess. It's better to just leave it here."
The few people Cheng Jin and his team who were guarding the house only knew first aid and only performed first aid to stop the bleeding. Fortunately, the simple hemostatic medicine they had left behind was effective, and the bleeding was stopped.
Their concern was the recurring fever. Old Yang went in and treated it for half a day, but when he came out, he didn't look too worried.
"It's alright, the wound was treated well, but the disinfection wasn't thorough enough. I cleaned it again, it's not a big problem. Just take your medicine on time and rest well."
Cheng Jin hurriedly asked,
"Is this medicine that needs to be decocted?"
Old Mu thought it was simple.
"She forgot to take her medicine kit last time, but she brought it over today. There are still some medicines inside, which is great and convenient."
I've divided it up for him, so he can eat it in meals.
Children recover quickly, so avoid getting the area wet and stretching it for the next few days.
"It'll be almost healed in a few days. If you need me again, just come find me."
Herbal medicine wasn't the only factor; he was also worried that these rough men wouldn't brew it properly and would ruin his medicine.
Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Cheng Jin rubbed his temples, and Cheng Rui's eyes immediately welled up with tears again.
"Xiao An, he won't have a fever again, will he?"
"Perhaps,"
Seeing that his tears were about to fall, Lao Mu quickly chimed in.
"Don't worry, that medicine has antipyretic and sedative effects. He'll probably sleep through the night and wake up around tomorrow morning."
"real?"
Old Mu quickly nodded in agreement.
"It's really, really, really true."
When he wakes up, give him some light porridge or something similar. If you can get some good food, give him more to nourish him; children need good food to recover faster.
This is because it's a military camp, and they seem to receive occasional aid, so the conditions must be quite good. Otherwise, ordinary people wouldn't need to say such things.
The main problem is that there are simply no other options. Being able to eat your fill is considered a good thing, let alone having good food.
