Chapter 457 What to do next
Song Yuntang is now five months pregnant. Her pregnancy is not noticeable even though she is wearing clothes, but if you touch her, you can see that her lower abdomen is slightly bulging.
Because her arm was injured and she was blind, and the mountains were dangerous and she couldn't find any help, for the sake of the baby in her belly and her own personal safety, she didn't think about running away for the time being. She tried not to go out, and kept a calm mind to take care of the fetus in this shabby little courtyard. She always paid attention to her physical condition and always let the food she put into her mouth pass under her nose before eating.
Awang couldn't notice her little action, but Lin Jingyao had already noticed it when he was here.
Although I felt a little uncomfortable, I thought it would be better for her to be more cautious outside, so I didn't say much.
Awang came into the house carrying a tray and went forward to help Song Yuntang up.
"Girl, it's time to eat."
Song Yuntang stood up and let him help him walk to the table.
"Wangfu, how long will it take for your master to return?"
Awang said respectfully, "If everything goes well, I will be back in mid-May. If not, I will be back earlier, perhaps by the end of this month. Miss, do you miss my master?"
Song Yuntang shook his head.
"Not really, just asking casually."
She would rather Lin Jingyao come back in May.
By then, she should have regained most of her vision.
I wonder what Xu Qingye’s reaction would be when he returns home and doesn’t see her? I had originally hoped that he would be by my side when the baby was born.
It seems that I will have to wait until the baby is born and his eyes have recovered before I can see him again.
Awang helped Song Yuntang sit down at the table, picked up a pair of chopsticks and put them in her hands, then picked up another pair and served her food.
"It's right for the girl not to go out these days. I see many people in the village are coughing, as if they have the plague. It's scary to see."
Song Yuntang paused while eating.
"really?"
Awang nodded and said, "I'm active in the village every day, so I can see it clearly."
"If it is really a plague, we will inevitably be infected if we stay in the village every day." Song Yuntang looked at the shadow beside him, "Well, go find a face towel, and I will go to check on the people in the village this afternoon."
Awang was shocked.
"No, young lady. You are still pregnant. If anything happens to you, my master will blame me when he comes back. Besides, you are blind now. How can you treat others?"
"I have experience in treating plague. Although I can't see with my eyes, I can still diagnose the pulse. You can describe the symptoms of the villagers to me and I will prepare the medicine. If we don't cure these people, Hougu Village is isolated from the outside world. When your master comes back, he will only be able to collect our bodies."
As Song Yuntang spoke, he fumbled to hold the bowl in front of him, picked up the chopsticks and started eating the food in the bowl.
She sat in the house all day and had little chance to touch medicinal herbs, so she couldn't even make some poison for self-defense.
She had asked Xinglin Medical Clinic to make preparations in Anyang County in advance, so there shouldn't be any major problems.
Although there are not many people in Hougu Village, they are isolated from the outside world. If a plague really breaks out, she will also be implicated.
It is better to take preventive measures when the plague starts, so that it will not become too serious later.
Awang saw that she had made the decision.
Thinking that it was she who solved the plague in Qingshi Town before, she no longer objected.
After dinner, Song Yuntang asked Awang to go and call the head of Hougu Village first.
The head of Hougu Village knew that a person of prominent status had moved into the abandoned yard in front of Luo's house. He heard that the person was recuperating from an injury and it was inconvenient for him to move, and he gave him some small change on the day he came. So the head of the village turned a blind eye and everything has been peaceful until now.
Now that he knew Song Yuntang was looking for him, the village head naturally followed him.
Li Cangshu clasped his fists towards Song Yuntang.
"I wonder why the young lady called me here?"
Song Yuntang had a scarf on his face and nodded slightly in the direction of the voice. "When I first came to Hougu Village, I was only here to recuperate. I never went to see the head of the village. Instead, I asked the head of the village to see me. I am so rude."
Li Cangshu said politely, "Miss, please don't say that."
Song Yuntang stopped beating around the bush.
"To be honest, I used to be a doctor. I just heard from Wangfu that many people in the village have been coughing recently. I happen to have experience in treating plagues. In case it is really a plague, I want to prevent more people from being affected. Could you please organize these people so that I can take a look?"
When he heard the word plague, a look of fear flashed across Li Cangshu's face.
There was a plague in Anyang County last year, and the incident later spread to their Hougu Village. It is said that a female doctor assisted the Anyang County magistrate in governing the situation, which prevented the entire Yingshan City from being affected.
"I see that the girl is not very old. Are you sure she knows the art of medicine?"
The key point is that she can't see anything, how can she treat people?
The villagers are also dissatisfied.
Song Yuntang smiled and raised his slender fingertips slightly.
"Could the head of the village lend a hand?"
Seeing this, Li Cangshu hurried forward and extended his hand.
Song Yuntang groped for his pulse.
After a moment, let go.
"Wangfu, can you help me check if the village head has a pale face and gray nails?"
Awang looked in the direction of Li Cangshu.
“It’s true.”
Song Yuntang continued, "Does the village head usually have difficulty bending and extending the elbows and knees, stiffness and discomfort, decreased vision, blurred vision, tinnitus and deafness?"
Li Cangshu nodded.
"have."
"When I felt the pulse of the village head just now, I found not only a soft pulse, but also a thin pulse. I guess that in addition to the above symptoms, the village head also has symptoms such as sore waist and knees, cold limbs, and weak legs, right?"
Li Cangshu looked surprised.
“Yes.”
She can tell his symptoms just by taking his pulse. This girl is really capable.
Song Yuntang curled his lips slightly, with confidence on his face.
"I heard that when the village chief came in, he was in a hurry and had a slight cough. I wonder if he had any pain in his chest or ribs?"
Li Cangshu's expression became pious.
"Girl, do you know this too?"
The girl arched her eyebrows slightly.
"I'm a doctor, so it's not surprising that I can diagnose these symptoms. Right now, Li Zheng's lungs have already shown initial signs of infection. If you don't get treated in time, given your current physical condition and age, if it gets worse in the later stages, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to survive."
Upon hearing this, Li Cangshu bowed hurriedly.
"What's your last name, young lady?"
"My last name is Song." Song Yuntang answered truthfully.
Li Cangshu bowed again.
"Please tell me, young lady, what should I do next?"
Song Yuntang looked at the figure in front of him and said, "Hougu Village is surrounded by mountains and is sparsely populated. I think there are many medicinal herbs in the mountains, such as mugwort, March bud, isatis root, honeysuckle, and windproof. The head of the village can ask the villagers to collect more. There are not many people in the village, so the collected herbs should be enough. I will treat everyone later and then prescribe medicine according to the prescription."
If there are few people, one prescription is suitable for each person, which is highly targeted and should be able to cure the disease.
Li Cangshu nodded quickly.
"Okay, I'll go and prepare it now."
