Chapter 18

Chapter 18

Qingliu Town is a small town, because it is the only way from the north to the south, so there are many pedestrians coming and going.

Old man Fang parked the mule cart in front of the ancient medical hall, the largest medical center in the town. However, even the largest medical center is only two storefronts, and only one side of the door is open.

"Ma'am, it's here!"

"understood."

Fang Miaolan wore a plain dress that couldn't be more low-key, and picked up the valance beside her to put on herself, covering herself tightly.After thinking about it, she took an old cloak and wrapped Zhou Lang from head to toe.

"Mother, I'm not cold!" Zhou Lang was puzzled, it was already April, and the weather was getting hotter, why Fang Miaolan was still afraid of her being cold.

Fang Miaolan said, "Put it on even if it's not cold."

Zhou Lang saw Fang Miaolan's serious expression and thought of encountering officers and soldiers on the road, so he didn't object.

This world, it seems, is not as safe as imagined.

After getting out of the carriage, old man Fang drove the mule cart to the side and waited, while Fang Miaolan led Zhou Lang into the lobby of the medical hall.

In the medical hall, most of the cabinets were filled with medicine cabinets, and two young apprentices were filling prescriptions.On the other side, an elderly doctor was seeing a middle-aged man who was clutching his stomach and complaining of pain.

"You just took laxatives, and you just have diarrhea." The old doctor stroked his beard and said with a smile.

"Ah, laxatives?" The middle-aged man yelled, "That smelly beggar actually put medicine in my food. Next time I see him, I must teach him a lesson!"

He cursed a few words, his stomach growled again, and the pain was terribly painful, so he grabbed the old doctor's hand and said: "Doctor, I have been stretching all day, you should think of a way, don't let me pull it anymore !"

"Don't worry, don't worry!" The old doctor picked up the prescription just written on the table, shook it and said, "This is the prescription, you go to the side to grab the medicine!"

The middle-aged man stopped being entangled with the old doctor, took the prescription, covered his stomach, ran to the medicine cabinet next to him, and slapped the prescription on it: "Quickly get the medicine for me!"

The younger apprentice was taken aback and froze.The older apprentice, as if he was used to such yelling people, rushed up to get the prescription, and said with a smile, "Don't worry about this guest, I'll catch you right away!"

Fang Miaolan brought Zhou Lang just after entering the door. If she wanted to go to the inner hall for a consultation, she had to pass in front of the medicine cabinet, but the middle-aged man stood in front of the medicine cabinet aggressively, so she had to lead Zhou Lang to stand aside.

Zhou Lang looked at the middle-aged man curiously, and saw that he was dressed in common clothes and looked dusty all over. He didn't look like a rich or powerful person at all, but the two medical school apprentices respected him.

Seeing Zhou Lang sizing him up, the middle-aged man felt even worse. He glared at Zhou Lang and shouted, "Boy, what are you looking at!"

Fang Miaolan hurriedly held Zhou Lang in her arms, retreated a few steps to the side, and hid in the shadows.

The middle-aged man took the medicine, and ran away in a hurry, ignoring the faults of others.

Fang Miaolan breathed a sigh of relief, pulled Zhou Lang inside, and sat in front of the old doctor.Zhou Lang unbuttoned his cloak, revealing his gauze-wrapped head.

"Oh, little girl, why did you break your head?" The old doctor untied Zhou Lang's gauze and inspected the wound, shaking his head regretfully: "Oh, the wound medicine used here is not good, and it will definitely leave scars in the future!"

Although Zhou Lang was young, he looked very much like his mother, and he could see the softness between his brows and eyes at a young age. If he was a few years older, he would be a little beauty who could attract people's sympathy.The old doctor felt sorry for the scars on her nice little face.

"If you leave a scar, you will leave a scar, and it doesn't matter." Zhou Lang looked in the mirror, and naturally knew that his body was good-looking.With a little more scar on her forehead, she didn't think it would make her ugly, so she didn't care.

"Hey, if you leave a scar, let's leave a scar." Fang Miaolan sighed, feeling sorry for her daughter and feeling that it's good to be ugly.

If a girl has a scar on her face, it is actually considered disfigured.But in this chaotic world, a girl has a pretty face, so she is destined to get into trouble easily. It would be better to marry an ordinary man with an ordinary look, and live a safe life.

The old doctor understood what Fang Miaolan meant, so he stopped talking and focused on observing Zhou Lang's situation.After checking the pulse for a long time, I felt the pulse again, and after thinking for a while, I said: "The trauma on Lingqianjin's head is almost healed, but there may be some blood in it."

"Ah, blood stasis? Is it serious?" Fang Miaolan panicked when she heard the blood stasis. She had heard before that someone died suddenly within a few days because of the blood stasis in the head.Zhou Lang is only nine years old and her only daughter, she must not lose her!

"My daughter has been groggy all the time, and she feels dizzy when she wakes up. Could it be because of congestion? Is there a way to cure it?"

The old doctor frowned: "No, judging from the degree of healing of the trauma, there is not much congestion, and it will dissipate after a period of recuperation. How can you be dizzy and unable to get out of bed?"

He stretched out his hand to touch Zhou Lang's head again, and inspected it for a long time, feeling a little puzzled.After thinking for a while, he said, "Perhaps it's because of my young age and my weak health."

The old doctor was not very clear, but Zhou Lang knew it in his heart.Sure enough, as she had guessed before, the wound was not that serious, and the symptoms of dizziness were due to the sequelae of the previous world.

"Then what should we do?" Fang Miaolan asked anxiously.

The old doctor wrote a prescription to Fang Miaolan, and said: "This prescription is for your daughter to take care of her body. Later, I will put a few acupuncture needles on her head, so that the congestion will dissipate faster, and she should recover sooner. "

Acupuncture on the head?Zhou Lang was stunned, he couldn't stop looking at the old doctor with suspicious eyes.

Isn't ancient medical technology very backward?Or is it that Chinese medicine is particularly developed and acupuncture techniques are common?Even acupuncture can be done on the head.

Could it be that the master is in the world, and she met the imperial doctor hidden among the people as soon as she arrived in the town?

The old doctor met Zhou Lang's suspicious eyes, thinking she was amazed at his medical skills, so he stroked his beard and smiled complacently.

He took out a needle bag from the low cabinet next to it and spread it out. There were more than a dozen silver needles in it, all of which were shining and looked brand new.

Do you really want acupuncture?Zhou Lang was a little afraid that the old doctor's hands would shake, and he stabbed her head crookedly, so he pulled Fang Miaolan's clothes, and said in a low voice: "Mother, the needle is so long, it hurts when it hits the head, I won't faint, we Or go back to decoction to eat?"

"Don't mess around. This doctor Gu is very skilled in medicine. Your head injury will heal after he gives you acupuncture and moxibustion." Although Fang Miaolan spoke softly, her expression was very serious.

Everything is negotiable, but when it comes to her daughter's body, she will never go along with her daughter's will just because she acts like a baby.

Zhou Lang curled his lips in dissatisfaction, looking at the needles, he felt a little palpitated, the needles or something reminded her of things in the previous world.

The old doctor thought that Zhou Lang was too young to be afraid of pain, so he shook his head with a smile, and picked up a needle to poke her on the head.

Seeing the needle getting closer and closer, Zhou Lang almost wanted to wave that hand away and shrink to the side.

Suddenly, several people came in carrying a stretcher noisily. On the stretcher lay a person clutching his knees and crying, and the surrounding area was covered with blood.

"Doctor, doctor! Take a look at him! His leg is injured!" a thick man yelled, and strode in a few strides to drag the old doctor away.

"Oh, don't worry, don't worry!" The old doctor was still holding the silver needle that was about to pierce Zhou Lang, and he was suddenly pulled in front of the stretcher, feeling a little unhappy.But when he looked at the wailing person on the stretcher, he found that it was indeed a bit serious. Due to the doctor's instinct, he focused on examining the injury.

Zhou Lang hurriedly pulled Fang Miaolan up, and retreated to the corner of the medical hall, so that no one would notice them, but he could clearly see the group of people.

"It hurts, it hurts!" the man on the stretcher cried out weakly.

"I'll stop the pain first!" The old doctor didn't hesitate, holding the silver needle and stabbing it into the man's calf.

Everyone watched, but within a few minutes, the man's wailing gradually subsided, and even the blood from the wound gradually stopped.

so amazing!

Zhou Lang was surprised. Could it be that she is also wearing the halo of the protagonist?That's why when I went out, I met a master hidden among the people!This old doctor with a white beard, with a kind and ordinary face, really can't tell that his medical skills are so superb!

The old doctor touched the man's knee and immediately knew that this was another troublesome matter.However, these troubles are none of his business, he only cares about saving people and treating injuries.

Carefully dug out a small iron bead on the man's knee, the old doctor poured a pile of precious golden medicine, pulled out the silver needle, and after bandaging the wound, he spread his hands to the men and said, "Okay! , 100 taels of medical expenses!"

Several men looked at each other in blank dismay, each of them lowered their heads, one of them said embarrassingly, "Doctor, we don't have that much money for the time being."

The old doctor snorted, as if he already knew that these people didn't have that much money, so he said angrily: "Then give as much as you have, and you will pay the owed part within one month."

"Thank you, old doctor!" Several men beamed with joy, took out a dozen taels of silver from their bodies, stuffed it all to the old doctor, took the medicine prepared by the apprentice, and carried the stretcher away neatly.

"100 taels?" Zhou Lang exclaimed in a low voice, and Fang Miaolan said, "Mother, this doctor's consultation fees are so expensive, we'd better stop treating him, I'll just go home and take care of him."

She vaguely remembered that she had seen the scene in Dream of the Red Chamber, where Grandma Liu went to Rongguo Mansion to get silver, and said that with 20 taels of silver, ordinary people could live a good life for a year.

Although this old doctor has good medical skills, the fees are too expensive.He only gave that man a needle, and he charged 100 taels of silver. If he gave her a few needles in the head, wouldn't it be a few hundred taels of silver?

A few hundred taels of silver is probably enough for her family to spend for many years!Her mother is not a rich man, so how can she afford it!

Fang Miaolan smiled and shook her head, "It's okay, mother has money."

No matter how expensive it is, the most important thing is to heal your daughter's injury?

After listening to the conversation between the mother and daughter, the old doctor said cheerfully: "You are a sensible little girl and know how to save money for your mother. But you don't have to worry, we ordinary people have ordinary people's charging standards, and it won't be very expensive."

Double standard charges?Zhou Lang laughed, this old doctor is really interesting.

The old doctor stopped talking, and asked Zhou Lang to sit down again, and wanted to give her an injection.

Although Zhou Lang was still a bit repelled, but thinking about the old doctor's good medical skills and nice person, he shouldn't mess around, so he resisted the urge to push away, closed his eyes, and followed the old doctor on his head. Acupuncture.

The needle sticks in the head, although there is a little pain, it is more of a hot feeling.

When Zhou Lang opened his eyes again, he felt that his head seemed to relax a lot, and he became more energetic.

"Okay," the old doctor put away his silver needles, and Fang Miaolan instructed: "You bring her back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. After three consecutive days of acupuncture and moxibustion, drink some tonics to nourish her, and she should be fine."

Fang Miaolan naturally nodded her head in response, and asked about the consultation fee, but the old doctor only asked the apprentice to collect ten taels of silver.

"It really is a double standard!" Zhou Lang sighed.Although it is still a bit expensive for ordinary people, it is much cheaper than the consultation fees of those men during the day.
