Chapter 29 Drowning Neck
Most of the medicine Lu Yun brought this time was for stopping bleeding and reducing bruising, and he sold it for a total of five taels.
There was also a bottle of wound medicine that Lu Qingqing had just prepared, which was given to Boss Tian for trial use.
Mr. Tian said that if the medicine works well, he will buy it in large quantities.
The younger sister said that the medicine she makes can bring the dead back to life and even the King of Hell will be troubled.
Mr. Tian will definitely be begging to buy it.
The price of that medicine had already been set: one ounce per bottle!
Ten bottles equal 10 taels.
100 bottles equal 100 taels.
1000 bottles equals 1000 taels...
I don't dare to think about what comes next. How big is 1,000 taels? How big of a box would it take to store it?
"Dad, you need to order another big trunk!"
Lu Yun stood under the eaves, pondering.
Just as Lu Qingqing entered the room, a clump of bird droppings landed on his head.
"Second brother, looks like you're in luck with bird droppings today."
Lu Yun reached out and touched it, and immediately felt disgusted and cried out.
He had forgotten that two new members had joined the family.
"Could you please keep an eye on people? Oh, you're spotting them so accurately, were you pulling on me?"
"Look at the mess you made on the floor. I have to clean it up every day. Can't you just go outside to do it?"
Two swallows hid in their newly built, imperfect nest, only their cute little heads peeking out as they blinked their little eyes at Lu Yun.
The whole family laughed heartily.
These are two newly established swallows who have struggled to build their nest, falling off the wall several times in the process.
In the end, it was Old Man Lu who ordered a wooden board to support the couple, which finally allowed them to settle down.
Lu Yun washed her hair and then hurried back to check on the herbs that Lu Qingqing had brought back.
"Holy crap, what is this thing?!"
Lu Yun accidentally spilled out a pile of dead insects.
There are two scorpions inside!
Lu Qingqing, however, cherished it very much.
Explain each point in detail.
"Woodworms, also known as woodlice, are roasted over a low flame until golden brown, ground into powder and taken orally. They are used to treat: break up blood stasis and swelling, promote menstruation and diuresis, treat thrush and other sores, promote tendon and bone healing, and treat knife wounds and bruises."
"Nine-fragrance insect, stink bug, is prepared in the same way as woodlice. It can regulate qi and relieve pain, warm the middle and harmonize the stomach. When ground into powder and blown into the ear, it can treat otitis media."
"A whole scorpion..."
...
Lu Yun: "Can I just process the herbs?"
The bugs smell awful! So disgusting.
"no!"
"Ahhhhh!" Lu Yun cried out for a while.
Lu Feng chimed in, "Just think of it as money. One woodlice is one coin, and a scorpion is 100 coins..."
It seems so!
Lu Yun no longer found it objectionable.
Bend over and fuck me hard!
Then, remembering what Li San had said, he told Lu Qingqing.
Lu Qingqing frowned after hearing this.
"Eucommia ulmoides does strengthen muscles and bones. However, they are not dealing with bone problems."
Perhaps Li Da's father is getting old and might be calcium deficient, leading to osteoporosis, but Li Da won't be.
"Drinking this is fine, but the red clay... tell them not to drink it, it's bad for their health."
“Then I’ll talk to Li San again. But I don’t think they’ll listen. His mother is stingy and a shrew. She bullies her daughter-in-law and mistreats her granddaughter. The men in the family have no backbone. They don’t dare to utter a word when a woman is in charge.”
After Lu Yun finished speaking, he felt that something seemed off.
It seems that the villagers used to curse their family in the same way.
Lu Qingqing said quietly, "Are you guys any more capable than the men of the Li family?"
They're not even as good as the Li family!
At least other families are governed by their elders, but the Lu family is the opposite, with their daughter suppressing them.
The three men all gave an awkward smile.
How could Qingqing be like that shrew? She was just young and ignorant before.
"You can remind me, but if I don't listen, then forget it," Lu Qingqing said.
Whether or not to treat the illness is the patient's own business; she doesn't force them.
She's just a doctor, not a savior.
From inside the room came the sound of a baby crying loudly.
"Little sister, little sister—"
Lu Qingqing quickly ran inside.
"Little sister, look, is Xibao sick? Or has she hurt her shoulder again? She's cried several times today."
Feng Xiaowan was very anxious; as the child cried louder, her eyes reddened.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, let me take a look."
Lu Qingqing first checked Xibao's shoulder; the bandage was still in place.
Body temperature is also normal.
But she just kept crying, milk spilling from the corners of her mouth and running down her neck.
Feng Xiaowan drank soup and ate meat every day, which made her breast milk plentiful. As a result, Xibao became much plumper and fairer, with a round face and no visible neck.
Lu Qingqing took a soft cloth and wiped away the milk stains for her.
Xi Bao cried even harder and started to arch her back.
"Is she having a stomachache?" Lu Feng, who followed her in, asked helplessly.
"no."
There was no bloating in the abdomen, and bowel movements were normal.
Lu Qingqing had absolutely no experience in raising children, so she could only examine them little by little.
She took off all of Xibao's clothes but still couldn't find anything wrong.
The problem was finally discovered when Xibao tried to straighten up again.
sky!
It's up to my neck!
It turns out that there are folds on her neck, and milk stains often seep in. Because it's not breathable, and we're afraid she'll get cold, we wrap her up tightly, which causes her very delicate skin to break.
When you break it open, it smells terrible, and the bright red color is even more frightening.
Lu Qingqing's heart trembled, and she felt extremely distressed.
Feng Xiaowan, needless to say, was already filled with self-reproach.
It was all her negligence!
Lu Qingqing then thought of her armpits and looked through them as well.
Sure enough, the same was true under the armpits.
It's just a minor issue.
No wonder the child is crying; it must be in so much pain.
"Sister-in-law, don't be sad. This is our first time being a mother, we have no experience."
Now that I know, I will pay more attention in the future.
"But what do we do? I can't touch this..."
It's all peeling skin, even the softest cloth would hurt if you rub it.
I dare not make a move.
"You blow on it first, I'll go get the medicine."
Lu Qingqing boiled honeysuckle in water and made several small cotton swabs from cotton.
Then, together with Feng Xiaowan, they washed Xibao several times and applied a layer of sesame oil.
Honeysuckle has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, clears heat and detoxifies, and its sesame oil can relieve itching and protect the skin from friction.
"Just wash it several times a day and let your neck air dry often."
"Little sister, thanks to you."
Xi Bao gradually stopped crying.
Lu Feng grinned and said, "Xi Bao, quickly thank your aunt."
Your aunt is the best to you.
Lu Qingqing rolled her eyes: "Nonsense, stop teaching me nonsense!"
My brother really doesn't know how to talk, saying things like that in front of my sister-in-law.
But Feng Xiaowan was naive and innocent, and nodded in agreement with her older brother.
Why.
