Nanny Lian brought an umbrella and held it for Yang Haiyan, saying, "Madam, be careful."
The two entered the next tent and saw the doctor examining Meng Qiu, while Mrs. Meng Qiu held Meng Qiu's hand with red eyes. Over the years, she only had Meng Qiu as her daughter, so she naturally loved her very much. Now that her daughter was sick, she wished that she was the one who was sick. While holding the hand of the concubine, Meng Qiu asked anxiously: "Doctor, how is my concubine? Is she in trouble?"
After observing Meng Qiu's condition, the doctor said: "Her fever is quite serious. If the fever doesn't go away, the problem will be serious. Drink a bowl of boiled medicine first." Fortunately, when it rained yesterday, the medicine was boiled in advance and kept warm. Otherwise, if she suddenly got cold with a fever, it would be too late to boil the medicine again.
Meng Qiu was anxious: "If the fever doesn't go away..."
The doctor did not answer this question: "Use cold water to reduce her fever."
Yang Haiyan knew that in ancient times, cold water was used to reduce fever, which meant to use a towel dipped in cold water and then squeezed dry, and then put it on the forehead, or to use a towel dipped in cold water and then squeezed dry, and then wipe the child's body. But these are also very dangerous. In modern times, a cold is a minor problem, just like the smallest dental surgery, which is very safe. But in ancient times, a cold could kill people.
Looking at Meng Qiu on the couch again, this little girl is usually very well-behaved, picking firewood with Meng Qiu, and is very sensible. But at this moment, her face is red, and the whole person is sick.
Yang Haiyan sighed: "Madam, ask Aunt Fan to cook some rice porridge and bring it to Meng Qiu later."
Madam Lian: "Yes."
Meng Qiu heard it and said gratefully: "Thank you, madam." But she was also weak, and her attention was on her children at this moment.
After Meng Qiu, people came in one after another, basically feeling hot in the head, or dry throat, and some even had runny nose. Yang Haiyan looked for a while and then returned to the main tent.
As soon as she arrived at the main tent, Yang Haiyan said, "Mammy, you guard the door and don't let anyone in, not even the general."
Mammy Lian was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said, "Yes." Although she didn't understand what the lady meant, the lady and the general were in love, and since the lady kept it a secret, there must be a reason.
The main tent was connected by three tents. The middle one was Qin Fang's office and the place where the Qin family ate. The one on the left was where Qin Fang and Qin Shoucheng slept, and the one on the right was where Yang Haiyan, Qin Siya, and Mammy Lian slept. As for Aunt Fan and Aunt Yu, they slept with food supplies.
Yang Haiyan entered the tent on the right and opened the platform. Speaking of which, she hadn't opened the platform for a long time. Before, she opened the platform to buy some snacks, such as cherries that could be eaten in one bite, and vitamins such as calcium tablets. She put these things in her drawer, which was locked. No one dared to open it, and it couldn't be opened. Even if Qin Fang was there, he would not look through her things on weekdays, so it was very safe.
At this moment, Yang Haiyan was looking for cold medicine. She bought Western medicine, which was in boxes. She scooped them out one by one and put them in her purse. Then she burned the boxes of plastic and paper boxes. Regardless of whether it is environmentally friendly or not, if it is not burned and found to be inappropriate, it can only be burned.
She only bought Western medicine. First of all, Western medicine is more effective in emergencies. Secondly, Chinese medicine cold granules or cold liquid are not suitable. Because there is a doctor, the prescription he prescribes is Chinese medicine. Yang Haiyan read the instructions when buying cold medicine, and it will not conflict with Chinese medicine.
A pungent smell came from the tent. Although it was not strong, it was smelled by Aunt Lian at the door. It was the smell of something burning. Aunt Lian stood quietly.
After a while, Aunt Lian heard the voice of the wife: "Madam, come in."
Aunt Lian lifted the curtain and came in: "Madam An."
Yang Haiyan said: "Let's go and see Meng Qiu."
Because the tents were separated for men and women, even for a family, they were separated, so Meng Qiu brought Meng Qiu and lived with Meng An, Kun Zhang, Huang Xu, Aunt Hong, Sister Lu, and Mrs. Yang. These are all acquaintances, so it is more appropriate for them to live together.
Bikun Daying is with Kunshi, Hong Shu, Huang Huzi, Meng Ping, Tao Shan, Chen Dashi, Yang Xiaowei, and Lu Xiaowei.
In the tent here, Meng Qiu was guarding Meng Qiu. Meng Qiu had already drunk the Chinese medicine, but she was still uncomfortable. She looked at Meng Qiu with red eyes: "Mom, I have a headache."
Meng Qiu put a handkerchief on her forehead and fed her a steamed bun: "Be good, go to sleep first, and when you wake up, your headache will go away."
Meng Qiu sobbed softly: "Mom, I can't sleep, my headache is so uncomfortable, I can't sleep."
Meng Qiu's eyes were red when she heard it, and she couldn't help crying. Her daughter was so young, and it was a suffering to be sick. She felt uneasy when she thought about some children who died because of the cold. She was really worried that her daughter would also...
"Are you all in there?" Yang Haiyan opened the curtain and came in, and saw that everyone was inside. The tent here is not like the main tent. This is just a place to sleep. To be more precise, you sleep here and eat here. Fortunately, everyone eats steamed bread, so there is no strange smell.
Seeing Yang Haiyan coming, everyone stood up: "Madam is here."
Yang Haiyan said: "You don't have to worry about me sitting down, I'm here to see how Qiu'er is doing."
Meng Qiu's tears came out when she heard it: "She has a headache and can't sleep, Madam, what can we do? The doctor said that the fever must be reduced, but now her forehead is still hot."
Yang Haiyan patted her shoulder: "Don't worry, I'm here for this matter."
Meng Qiu's eyes showed surprise when she heard it: "Madam, do you have a way? Madam, if you can save Qiu'er, I will be your slave." As she said, she was about to kneel down.
Yang Haiyan really admired Meng Qiu. Is this the time to do this? She supported Meng Qiu: "Don't worry about these, Qiu'er is more important." She took out two purses from her bag and poured out nine pills from each purse. "Take one of these square pills for every three meals, and two of these round pills for every three meals. This is the amount for three days. Don't worry, if nothing goes wrong, she will recover slowly in three days. Also, this pill helps with sleep, and you will fall asleep after taking it."
Meng Qiu heard this and immediately fed Meng Qiu the medicine. Fortunately, Yang Haiyan had absolute persuasiveness in Meng Qiu's heart, and she believed whatever she said. If it were someone more suspicious, Yang Haiyan would probably find an excuse.
Meng Qiu took the medicine, and Yang Haiyan did not leave, just stayed here with everyone. At first, Meng Qiu was still screaming in pain, but gradually the sound became silent and she fell asleep. It was only two quarters of an hour, and I can't say what other effects the medicine had, but it really helped me sleep quickly.
Seeing Meng Qiu fall asleep, Meng Qiu knelt down on the spot and kowtowed three times. Yang Haiyan was helpless because Meng Qiu was very stubborn on this point.
After Meng Qiu got up, Yang Haiyan said to the others inside: "I prepared this pill when I went to the border county. I prepared it just in case, but it really came in handy. However, the number of pills is limited, and there are many people here, so I hope everyone will keep it secret, otherwise if someone gets into trouble, I won't be able to provide it to everyone." Yang Haiyan said this to remind everyone that if everyone spread the news about the pills, then everyone who caught a cold would need pills, and by the time someone caught a cold here, the pills would have been taken away by others.
In a matter of life and death, everyone is selfish and naturally only cares about themselves. So everyone promised not to tell anyone about this.
Yang Haiyan threatened and used the reminders and then left. She couldn't stand by and watch people she knew get into accidents because of a minor illness like a cold, but she could only help these people she knew. For outsiders, she could only apologize. Otherwise, if one hundred out of three thousand people caught a cold, she would have to take out thousands of pills like this, and even if she could, she wouldn't have an excuse.
Yang Haiyan sighed. She didn't know whether it was right or wrong to take out the pills to help Meng Qiu, but the current excuse was still relatively safe. Who would go back to Bianguan County to ask about this? Besides, she didn't say which doctor she got the medicine from. So, she thought again and again before helping Meng Qiu.
"Are you upset, Madam?" Back in the main tent, Nanny Lian wiped the water droplets off Yang Haiyan's body with a dry towel.
Yang Haiyan said, "Who wouldn't be upset on such a rainy day? Oh, where are Shoucheng and Siya? I haven't seen them."
Nanny Lian said, "They went to play with Daying."
Yang Haiyan didn't say much after hearing this. However, "Ask Aunt Fan and Aunt Yu to prepare more ginger tea, three bowls a day for everyone. Also, ask Kunshi to take people to buy another batch of ginger and brown sugar. If this goes on, the current ginger and brown sugar may not be enough."
Nanny Lian said, "In this weather, I don't know if there is so much ginger and brown sugar in the county."
Yang Haiyan said, "Even if there is no brown sugar, ginger alone will do. If the county here doesn't have it, go to the county next door." It would be great if there were cold medicine granules, and it can be prevented. Yang Haiyan once again felt the backwardness and powerlessness of the ancient times, and at the same time, she had an idea. If she could solve the problem of colds not taking people's lives, then... But she couldn't provide Western medicine, and what she provided was the formula of Western medicine. Of course, she didn't know the formula of Western medicine, but the instructions had the ingredients of Western medicine. It was just that translating these ingredients into easy-to-understand text was also a big project, and she had to pick up all the chemical knowledge.
Moreover, the prescriptions that appeared out of thin air would also cause trouble.
If she didn't use Western medicine, she could use Chinese medicine. Modern medicine is more advanced than this ancient medicine. She could also buy Chinese medicine, then find the formula in the product manual, and then leak the formula through reasonable means, or other means.
Of course, this was just her sudden whim.
