Chapter 199 Treatment
After seeing off the two people who brought the good news, Suning returned to the pharmacy, put away the basket of eggs first, and then looked at the bottle of used ointment.
It wasn't that she had mean intentions. The ointment, which was made from jadeite from the bottom of the spring and a secret recipe from the pharmacopoeia, was far more effective than she had imagined.
It’s better to take it back just in case.
If the old lady of the Liao family was aroused and a pearl was born, it would not only be fun for her but also cause her a lot of trouble.
She dare not underestimate the Chinese people's obsession and madness for offspring.
After putting the ointment back into the medicine room, Suning gathered his thoughts and started cleaning.
After cleaning the house inside and out, I also got medicine for two or three patients who came to see the doctor.
When it's cold, the elderly and children with weak bodies are more likely to catch a cold. Several families who come here are for this reason, and they either want antipyretics or cough suppressants.
Western medicine works quickly but only treats the symptoms and not the root cause. Thinking of several targeted prescriptions in the pharmacopoeia, Suning, who has some free time, suddenly wants to make some for use.
Just do it if you want to. Pick the necessary herbs from Taoyuan Medicinal Garden according to the recipe, spread them one by one in a large winnowing basket, and then start to prepare them.
These simple pills were no longer difficult for her now. In a blink of an eye, she had made a lot of colorful pills that had no medicinal fragrance.
As for pharmaceutical manufacturing, after trying so many times, she has become very casual about shapes and colors and no longer worries about them.
"Sister Su!"
"Sister Su, Sister Su!"
A burst of rapid shouts made Su Ning, who was still immersed in the space medicine house, tremble his fingers. He did not care about the spoiled pill and quickly retreated.
His face was covered with snot and tears, and his sleeves and trouser legs were wet in large areas, probably because he fell several times.
The little girl, who was wiping her face with her red and swollen hands from the cold, was crying out of breath. When she found someone walking quickly towards her, she immediately reached out and grabbed her, crying for help.
"Whose family are you from? Don't cry, don't cry, tell your sister slowly what happened."
"Hiccup~Sister Su~"
After burping, the little guy tightened his hand, which was as warm and soft as orange jelly candy, and finally calmed down his extremely confused and panicked emotions.
"I, I'm Xiaogaozi from the Dong family. Sister Su, my brother jumped down from the wall of Chunliu's house, and his feet...his feet were pierced by broken glass, and he bled a lot... wuwuwu~"
Children aged six or seven were so frightened by the bloody scene that they couldn't stop shaking just thinking about it.
After figuring out the situation, Suning quickly returned to the pharmacy, picked up the medicine box engraved with a red cross, hurriedly locked the door, and rushed to the scene of the accident with the little guy.
When they reached the side wall of Chunliu's house, five or six children surrounded the injured person, and their crying sounded like a chorus.
"Sister Su is coming, get out of the way!"
"Have you told the adults at home?"
"No, no..."
"Someone go get the Dong family's people over here quickly. And the rest of you, Sister Su is going to check on his injuries now. Everyone please stay quiet and stop crying."
With an adult around, especially their favorite sister, the little kids suddenly felt like they had found their backbone. After hearing her words, they covered their mouths with their hands to stop the crying that seemed to be unstoppable.
The smartest one among them had already started running desperately towards the Dong family with his short legs.
The injured child didn't look very old, probably about ten years old. His thickly patched cotton coat had been soaked by the snow water beneath him, making his lips, which had already lost blood, turn pale and even slightly cyanotic.
Squatting down, Suning carefully grasped his injured ankle and lifted it up slightly to check the glass shards stuck in the sole of his foot.
The exposed end looks like the broken base of a bottle used to hold soy sauce and vinegar.
The glass went in so deep that you can see the flesh inside. Luckily, the injury was to the tenderest part of the foot. Otherwise, if it was the toes...
She opened the medicine box, and besides the things she got from the hospital, most of the things inside were emergency medicines she had prepared herself.
He washed the wound several times with a medicine bottle filled with spring water until the bleeding gradually stopped.
"I have to pull out the glass first so I can apply the medicine to you properly. Can you bear the pain?"
"Sister Su...you pull it out, I am a man and I am not afraid..."
"Okay, what's your name, little man?"
"Dong...Dong Liang..."
"Dong Liang, sister will count to one, two, three and then pull out the glass, okay?"
The gentle questioning voice calmed Dong Liang, who was trembling with fear and panic on the inside, down inexplicably. Especially when she looked at him with a smile, it dazzled her eyes: Sure enough, the most beautiful girl in the village is Sister Su...
"good."
"one…"
"ah--"
The scream that came out of his mouth instantly stopped his mind from counting secretly, and Dong Liang couldn't control his tears.
Uh, didn’t you say count to three?
He hasn't prepared himself mentally yet, how come, how come he has already started?
Su Ning was quick to pull out the glass while he was distracted. He didn't seem to notice the accusation in his eyes. He rinsed him with spring water again and smiled to comfort him, "It will stop hurting soon, just bear with it."
"ah--"
The hemostatic powder coagulated into tiny blood beads the moment it was sprinkled, until it covered the entire wound. The blood that was gushing out immediately lost its momentum and slowly stopped.
"You lied, you lied to me... wuwu..."
Dong Liang was about to faint from the pain, with big tears falling down his face. What kind of man can bleed but not cry?
He is still young and he has a lot of time to grow.
"Okay, okay, then I'll treat you to some candy to make amends."
I took out a candy from my pocket, tore open the candy wrapper and stuffed it into his slightly open mouth. Only then did the little guy's cries of pain gradually subside.
"How about it? Doesn't it hurt so much now?"
"Liang Wa Zi, Liang Liang!"
Before he could finish his words, he felt a figure rushing in from beside him, picking up the child on the ground while shouting in a crying voice.
"He just stopped bleeding and applied medicine on his foot. Be careful not to bump into it again!"
"Did Liang's mother hear that? Watch out for his feet!"
A lot of people from the Dong family came in.
As Dong Fusheng spoke, he carefully examined his grandson's wound. Seeing that the wound had been treated, and although it looked scary but no longer bleeding, he finally felt relieved and patted his frightened chest.
"Thank you, Xiao Su, thank you!"
This is when the benefit of having a barefoot doctor comes into play. Without her, the pool of blood on the snow would be useless even if it was sent to the county hospital as quickly as possible.
So those gossipy women are still making sarcastic remarks behind her back, saying that she got full work points for nothing?
He has long hair but little knowledge!
"Thank you, thank you Dr. Xiao Su!"
Dong Da, feeling relieved, followed closely and bowed repeatedly to express his gratitude.
"It's okay. It's my job. Now take Xiaoliang home. His clothes are all wet and need to be changed immediately."
"Hey, okay, okay, come back, come back now!"
"What are you still standing there for, you idiot? Hurry up and take Liangliang home!"
The Dong family came quickly and left quickly. Dong Da rushed home with the child in his arms.
People who heard the noise and went out to watch the excitement also followed in a swarm.
Only Chunliu's door remained closed, and no one came out despite the loud commotion.
"Sister Su, Chunliu and the others have gone to Gaga's house, there's no one in the house."
So that's how it is. No wonder the naughty kids climbed over the wall and no one shouted or stopped them.
After putting the medicine bottles on the snow back into the medicine box with wooden corks, Su Ning stood up and looked at him, "Little cake, why don't you go home with your parents?"
Dong Gao sniffed hard, tears and snot still lingering on his face. "They seem to have forgotten me."
"Come on, I'll take you home and visit your brother."
"Uh-huh!"
When Dong Liang brought Xiaogaozi to Dong's house, he had already taken off his wet clothes and stuffed his naked body into the quilt, wrapping himself tightly.
The little guy, who was tired and in pain, had closed his eyes and fell asleep, with no signs of fever for the time being.
Use a smooth bamboo stick to scrape off the special medicine powder on his wound, then apply ordinary medicine powder from the medicine box and wrap it with gauze.
After everything was done, he stood up and gently grabbed the corner of the quilt to cover the little feet.
"Don't eat anything greasy these days, be careful not to touch water, and come to me immediately if you have a fever."
"I've made note of that. Thank you, Dr. Su."
Suning nodded and walked out of the room with the medicine box. When he saw Dong Ruolan again, his eyebrows jumped.
