Li Xiyue chuckled. Why did that sound so strange?
Chu Xun had to go to town to run errands in the afternoon and wouldn't be back until evening. He also said that he had already reported to the brigade cadres and would be staying in the observation room of the health clinic.
Li Xiyue then went to tidy up his room.
Just as they finished their work, Uncle Xu arrived carrying a basket of medicine on his back, along with Erniu.
"Yueyue, I heard you asked Erniu to come help out at the clinic?" Uncle Xu asked with a smile.
Li Xiyue took the medicine from his back. "Yes, I can cure Grandma Wang's illness, but Grandma Wang is afraid of spending money, so I came up with this method."
"Good, that's a good idea," Uncle Xu praised with a smile.
Li Xiyue took out the medicine, sorted and arranged it, and taught Erniu how to process the medicinal materials.
Erniu listened attentively and learned it in no time. After practicing for a while, she got the hang of it.
Li Xiyue said to Uncle Xu, "Grandpa, Erniu is very talented in this area."
"This kid is definitely a good candidate for studying medicine," said Uncle Xu, stroking his beard.
Li Xiyue smiled, "Then shall we mentor her?"
“No problem.” Uncle Xu agreed. Since his grandson wouldn’t stay in the village to study medicine anyway, he decided not to interfere and let him be.
Just as Li Xiyue was about to say something more, Gao Xiuzhi arrived, so she had no choice but to take Gao Xiuzhi and her sister-in-law into the consultation room.
Uncle Xu then went to teach Erniu pharmacology.
The consultation room is divided into an inner and outer room, separated by a curtain.
Li Xiyue led Gao Xiuzhi's sister-in-law into the inner room, drew the curtain, examined her, inquired about her symptoms, and then came out to take her pulse.
"The deficiency of Qi and blood leads to a decrease in resistance, and the lack of proper hygiene can cause inflammation. I will prescribe some medicine for internal use and external washing. During the treatment, avoid sexual intercourse, spicy food, maintain a good mood, go to bed early and get up early, and avoid overwork."
Li Xiyue wrote down the prescription while giving detailed instructions.
My sister-in-law, Qin Fang, asked shyly, "How long will the treatment take?"
"One course of treatment is half a month. I'll prescribe half a month's worth of medicine for you to take home and use. Come back for a follow-up visit after half a month to see if you need to continue treatment." After writing the prescription, Li Xiyue went to the pharmacy to get the medicine.
After preparing the medicine, Li Xiyue handed it to her. "There are fourteen doses in total. I've separated the oral medicine from the wash medicine and written down the usage instructions. Take the oral medicine twice a day, after breakfast and dinner."
"Dr. Li, I understand, thank you." Qin Fang took the medicine, feeling very satisfied with Li Xiyue's thorough and attentive diagnosis.
Gao Xiuzhi smiled at her sister-in-law and asked, "Dr. Li, how much?"
"The medicine costs one dollar, and the consultation fee is one cent," Li Xiyue said.
Fourteen days' worth of medicine costs one yuan, plus two types of medicine: oral and topical. Divided into daily doses, it only costs a few cents, which isn't expensive. However, the consultation fee is a bit pricey. But Li Xiyue is a legendary doctor, so it's normal for her consultation fee to be a bit high.
Qin Fang readily paid the money; she was willing to spend money as long as her illness could be cured.
"Dr. Li, if my illness is cured, I will definitely bring patients to you." The wives in the village all have this problem; if her illness can be cured, others will definitely come for treatment as well.
Li Xiyue smiled and saw the person off.
"Uncle Liu, my duck suddenly became lame. You need to go and take a look." Su Guixiang rushed into the clinic and saw Uncle Xu cutting medicine in the yard. She said anxiously.
Uncle Xu put down his things, stood up, dusted himself off, and left.
Li Xiyue took over his work and continued, but before she could sit down for two minutes, another person arrived.
It wasn't a patient, but Liu Hongshao, whom I hadn't seen in a long time.
