Man Bao went to wash her hands carefully, and then untied the cloth wrapping her head. Because it was wrapped a little tight, there was a light mark on her forehead, and her hair was pulled down and fell down.
Doctor Liu also just took off the cloth towel, saw it and said, "Little Doctor Zhou, let me comb your hair for you."
Man Bao likes others to comb his hair the most. It is not only comfortable but also looks good, so he nodded repeatedly.
Mrs. Han finally came to her senses, and immediately asked them to take them to the guest room to rest and freshen up.
Dr. Liu obviously hadn't recovered from the operation, and while combing Man Bao's hair slowly, she asked, "Little Doctor Zhou, how did you come up with the idea of getting a baby by laparotomy?"
She had a strange feeling that Zhou Man had undergone such an operation many times, and it didn't feel like the first time at all.
For example, the skillful posture of pulling the child out, the careful stitching layer by layer, if you haven't done it before, who knows how to do it
She has seen a lot of things in the imperial hospital, especially when it is inconvenient for the imperial physicians to see the masters of the harem, they need to check and pass the news on their behalf.
And girls have a very special kind of carefulness. Doctor Xiao may have been too scared to pay attention, but she saw it from beginning to end.
Man Bao said: "You will know if you sew too much."
She turned her head to look at the half of her combed hair, and said: "In fact, it is better to give birth naturally, because the tools are limited, postpartum care is difficult, and caesarean section is very harmful to the mother. Unless it is absolutely necessary, caesarean section is not recommended in the future. "
Doctor Liu nodded, "But Doctor Zhou has pioneered this treatment. In the future, if there are women with dystocia, they will have another way to survive."
Looking at her face through the bronze mirror, Man Bao asked, "Do you want to learn?"
Doctor Liu was stunned, and after a while she was slightly surprised: "Can I learn?"
Man Bao nodded and said: "There are so many prejudices in the world. Look at the Han family who dotes on the fifth wife of Han. The Li family is considered enlightened, but the old doctor Tan and the others can only wait outside the screen, let alone other people."
She sighed and said: "The capital city is not bad, but there are more ignorant ones in other places. I have seen mother-in-laws who would rather let their daughter-in-law die in childbirth than ask a doctor to take a look at it, so it is more convenient for a female doctor to give birth."
Dr. Liu did not agree to her immediately, but after thinking for a long time, she said: "But in this way, won't I become a stable woman in the end? How many people in this world need to open their abdomen to get a child? And I don't either. I am confident that I can do what Little Doctor Zhou does."
Man Bao laughed and said, "Not only can you learn how to get a child by opening the abdomen, you can also learn the method of natural delivery, and you can also learn other medical skills. You are not just delivering babies, you can also treat other diseases."
She said: "Look at the patients who come in and out of Jishitang every day, five of them are underage children, four of them are men, and only one is an adult woman. Only these few female patients came down, and in the past, the huge Jishitang might not see a single female patient in a day."
Doctor Liu didn't expect this.
Man Bao said calmly: "Is it because women's bodies are better than men's and won't get sick? No, maybe it's because of poverty, or maybe it's because of the difference between men and women. Women are more able to endure, endure pain, endure illness, and just rely on themselves to survive." past."
"But if there are female doctors among the doctors sitting in the pharmacy, then they will be less patient. Those who can afford to see a disease will always come to see them." Man Bao raised his eyes, looked at Doctor Liu's eyes through the bronze mirror and said: "Your family has practiced medicine for generations. If you want, you can definitely learn other medical skills. Then you can sit down and practice medicine."
Doctor Liu didn't speak for a long time, she combed Man Bao's hair, put the bead flower on it, and then said with a complicated face: "Little doctor Zhou, I'm seventeen, and in two years my family will tell me Darling, and then took me out of the palace to marry, after I get married, I can't sit in court to see a doctor anymore, right?"
Man Bao asked, "Why not?"
The Imperial Physician's family wealth is not as much as Man Bao thought, at least it is not easy to maintain a life in the capital, and it is not easy to support a family. She has learned that the Liu family will not have much dowry for Doctor Liu.
If none of the grandsons after Doctor Liu can enter the Tai Hospital, the whole family will have to leave the capital and go back to their hometown, buy some fields, and become an ordinary rich man. Maybe they will open a pharmacy, or find a local pharmacy to continue. Sit down and be a doctor.
It also depends on the ability of the descendants.
Physician Liu is one of the few imperial physicians that Man Bao is most familiar with, so she and the shopkeeper Zheng Da knew that among the several imperial physicians, his family background was the weakest. Neither the grandson nor the grandson are particularly outstanding at the moment.
On the contrary, it was Dr. Liu, whom Man Bao admired very much.
Dr. Liu fought with heaven and man, and then said in a low voice: "The medical books at home, my grandfather will not pass them on to me. Some of the more important diseases, even my father has never learned it, only my uncle can learn it."
Man Bao: ...
Man Bao said: "It's okay, I can teach you, have you read the "Huangdi Neijing"?"
Doctor Liu nodded, "I've seen this, but there are many things I don't understand."
"You sort it out later, and I'll answer them for you one by one." Man Bao felt a little regretful, "It's a pity that you are inconvenient in the palace, otherwise you will be auscultating by my side like Xiao Shao, and the speed will definitely be faster."
After all, she has also worked in the Tai Hospital for so many years. Although she has read few medical books, she must have seen a lot of symptoms and prescriptions. It is a pity that she has not studied systematically. .
But Man Bao felt that as long as she was taught this, she would definitely grow faster than Xiao Shao.
Man Bao felt a pity.
Man Bao turned his head and thought that her hairstyle looked pretty, so he got up and asked her to sit down, "You should wash it too."
Doctor Liu responded, combing her hair and asking: "Little Doctor Zhou, do I want to stay and watch with you at night?"
Man Bao blinked, met her gaze, and asked with a smile, "Do you want to stay?"
Doctor Liu paused for a moment and then gave a soft "hmm".
Man Bao smiled and said, "Then you can stay."
This is just a matter of Man Bao's words, as long as she tells Imperial Physician Liu and the Li family that she wants to keep Dr. Liu as a helper, someone will naturally ask for leave for Dr. Liu and the Imperial Hospital.
Doctor Xiao came out from the old Tan imperial physician, and when Mrs. Han Wu woke up, Lao Tan imperial physician and Liu imperial physician saw that there was nothing wrong with her, and she left with them after she was still alive.
She has to go back to the palace.
Man Bao wrote a letter to Xiao Shao, asking him to go to Changqing Lane after returning to Jishitang, "Tell my family that I have to stay here tonight and go home tomorrow."
Xiao Shao agreed.
Man Bao washed his hands and went into the delivery room, glanced at Mrs. Han Wu who had woken up, and stretched out his sinful little hand to press her abdomen...
