The urgent voice coming from outside the door made everyone in the yard put down their work.
They all looked at Xu Zhiyi.
Xu Zhiyi opened the door and stood in front of it, so people outside could not see the scene inside.
"Uncle Tan, what's the urgent matter?"
"My kid has a high fever today. I'd like to ask you to go and take a look." Carpenter Tan came running over in a hurry, barely catching his breath.
"Okay, wait for me to go back and get some things, and I'll be out soon." Xu Zhiyi immediately turned around and went into the pharmacy.
He took a bottle and a few packets of herbs from the shelf, put them in the basket, closed the door, and walked out.
"Ayan, you don't have to come with me. I'll be back soon." Everyone could hear clearly what Carpenter Tan said outside the door.
Pei Yan had been waiting when Xu Zhiyi came out, wanting to go with her.
After hearing her say this, Pei Yan still did not follow.
When Fang Yingzi heard that it was Tan Mutou who was sick, her face was filled with worry.
He had long forgotten that he had work to do and chased after Xu Zhiyi out.
"Sister Zhiyi, I'll go with you." Fang Yingzi caught up with her and said.
Xu Zhiyi nodded, thinking that Fang Yingzi could help out if she went there.
The three of them walked quickly towards Carpenter Tan's house.
Xu Zhiyi walked so fast that even Fang Yingzi had to jog to keep up.
Carpenter Tan ran all the way here, but he still didn't have enough energy to run back.
"Uncle Tan, don't worry, we'll take our time later. Sister Zhiyi and I will go to your house first."
Fang Yingzi turned around and said something.
"Oh, okay."
Carpenter Tan slowed down his pace, took a breath, and then hurried to catch up.
It basically doesn't snow here in winter, but it is really cold and wet.
It's equally cold whether you are inside or outside.
Tan Mulin was bored staying at home, so he went to the river to fish with some naughty boys from the village, not wearing any thick clothes but not being afraid.
As a result, no fish was caught, and a boy who couldn't swim fell in the water. He could only struggle panicking in the water.
Tan Mulin threw down the fishing rod in his hand and jumped down to save the man.
After being rescued, the people stayed in the icy water for a long time, and the cold wind made it even colder.
After returning home, before he could explain the reason, his mother grabbed his ear and scolded him, and hurriedly told him to change his wet clothes.
After the change, she made him some ginger soup while cursing at him, and after he drank it, she confined him to the bed.
I thought he was asleep so I didn't pay much attention to him. But it was already mid-afternoon and it was getting dark, but he still hadn't woken up.
Aunt Gao didn't wake up even after being called. Her forehead was hot when she touched it, and her face was also burning red.
This made Aunt Gao very anxious, and she hurriedly asked the head of the household to call Old Man Niu to come and see her son.
After Carpenter Tan hurried out, he thought about it and decided to go find Xu Zhiyi.
The last time Xu Zhiyi saved Ergouzi, the news spread throughout the village. Even Old Man Niu couldn't catch up with her.
These days, country folks really don’t have the idea of running to the city just because they’re sick, not to mention that the mountain roads are rugged, long, and take a long time.
I am afraid of hospitals because going in costs a lot of money and no one has much money.
Tan family.
Aunt Gao was so anxious that she was running around in the house, calling out to Tan Mulin from time to time, but she couldn't wake him up.
When Xu Zhiyi and Fang Yingzi arrived, they ran into Aunt Gao who was about to go out.
"Aunt Gao, Uncle Tan asked me, Sister Zhiyi, to come and check on Mu Tou. How is Mu Tou?"
Fang Yingzi explained in a few words what they were there for.
"His forehead is terribly burned, and I can't wake him up no matter how hard I try. Comrade Xu, please come in and take a look."
Aunt Gao was so anxious that she tried all kinds of treatments and didn't care that Xu Zhiyi was just a little girl.
After Xu Zhiyi entered the house, the windows were closed tightly.
"Yingzi, go open the window a little and ventilate it. This room is too stuffy."
Xu Zhiyi kept moving his hands while talking.
He first touched Tan Mulin's forehead, and it was indeed very hot, and he was still muttering that he was cold.
What to do about this type of fever symptom was mentioned in Chu Jueming's medical book as early as early on. It is when cold air enters the body, causing fever and fear of cold.
Xu Zhiyi had previously prepared herbal medicine bags for treating common colds and fevers, and he had done everything by himself, from collecting and preparing the herbs to dispensing the medicine.
Chu Jueming knew Xu Zhiyi's learning ability. After testing her, he felt that there would be no problem in treating some common colds and fevers.
"Yingzi, boil some of these herbs. Add three bowls of water and boil it into one bowl of water." Xu Zhiyi took out the herbs she had brought from the basket.
She didn't know the situation before, so she brought other things with her. But now that she has confirmed Tan Mulin's condition, they are useless.
"Aunt, do you have any quilts at home? Bring two more to cover him." Xu Zhiyi said to Aunt Gao.
"Okay. I'll get it right away." After saying that, he hurried out.
At this time, Carpenter Tan also came back.
"Xu Zhiqing, how is Lin Zi?" Carpenter Tan came to Tan Mulin's house without taking a rest.
"Yingzi went to boil some medicine. Drink it and sweat it out, and you'll be fine."
Perhaps it was Xu Zhiyi's calmness and understatement that eased Carpenter Tan's anxiety.
"The quilts are here!" Aunt Gao was holding two quilts, one of which was brand new and she was reluctant to use it.
He gently spread two quilts on Tan Mulin, still muttering that he was cold.
"Xu Zhiqing, Lin Zi is still muttering about being cold."
"Wait until Yingzi prepares the medicine and you'll feel better after drinking it." Xu Zhiyi comforted.
Aunt Gao couldn't wait any longer, so she turned around and went back to the kitchen to light a fire and boil the medicine.
