Mrs. Yang Hou was ill, and it seemed that she was still seriously ill. Man Bao first transferred to the Imperial Medical Office and asked Liu Sanniang for medical assistance, and then transferred to Yang's residence.
Imperial doctors who are ordered to go out for outpatient consultations must bring a medical assistant with them, which is also the rule of imperial hospitals.
Although Liu Sanniang and the others are doing medical assistance in the Tai Hospital, they are still in the Tai Medical Office most of the time, and they only enter the Tai Hospital when they are on duty.
On the one hand, they have to study at the Imperial Medical Office, and on the other hand, they also need to help the imperial doctors to teach. The Imperial Medical Office has decided to wait until this winter to select the first batch of graduates, and to send them to the established places next spring. Department of Medicine, began to prepare for the study in this area.
Now the only female medical assistant in the Tai Hospital is Liu Sanniang. She should not be transferred out, but Zheng Gu and others should be the first batch to release their experience before returning to the Tai Hospital.
When we arrived at Yang's Mansion, Steward Yu came out to greet him in person. He was all smiles, "I didn't expect Miss Man to come to see Madam, please come inside."
Man Bao said apologetically, "I'm busy today, so I didn't come here until now. Is Mrs. Hou alright?"
The smile on the butler Yu's face changed into a worried look, and he said: "I have a bad cough. I heard from the nurse in the inner courtyard that it was cold and hot. The imperial physician was only invited when there was a solution. Please."
Man Bao nodded, her symptoms sounded like a cold.
If it is easy to cure, just take two doses of medicine and you will be fine; if it is not curable, you may not even save your life.
Butler Yu only sent people to the second gate, and there was a nanny inside to lead them in.
Man Bao walked in for a while, then turned his head and asked Mammy, "When will Master Yang leave for Xiazhou?"
Mammy was stunned for a moment and then said, "This servant doesn't know."
Man Bao nodded and asked, "Is Master Yang not at home now?"
Mammy replied, "Yes, it's still on Zhuangzi."
Entering the main courtyard, Mrs. Yang Hou was lying on the bed with a cooling cloth towel on her forehead. Seeing that Zhou Man was coming, the maids tied up the curtains and exposed him.
Man Bao sat by the bed, Liu Sanniang immediately took out the pulse pillow for her, Man Bao took it, put Mrs. Yang Hou's hand on the pulse pillow after placing it beside the bed, and asked while looking at her face, "Who is Madam?" Do you feel unwell from time to time?"
Mrs. Yang Hou did not expect that the imperial physician invited was Zhou Man. Although she was a female imperial physician, it seemed more convenient, but because of her relationship with her stepson, Mrs. Yang Hou always felt a little uncomfortable.
But it was related to her body, and she didn't dare to fool her, mainly because the past two days were really too painful, "It's been four or five days, and I woke up once at night. I don't know if it was blown by the cold wind, but the next day I feel a little dizzy, and it doesn't help how many doctors I have invited."
The nanny at the side immediately said: "Doctor Zhou, our wife has been taking medicine, and she seemed to be much better in the past two days, but she suddenly had a fever yesterday, and she fainted for a while, it seemed that it was worse than the previous few days." some."
After listening to the pulse, Man Bao looked at her tongue coating and complexion, and turned to look at Mammy: "Is the prescription still there? Let me have a look."
Mammy immediately handed the prescription to Man Bao.
Madam Yanghou stared at Zhou Man and asked, "Is the prescription wrong?"
Man Bao said: "It's not wrong."
Although the prescription is not very good, it is suitable for the symptoms. Even if it can't be cured, it won't make people suffer.
She looked at Mrs. Yanghou and asked, "Did you not catch cold or heat from behind?"
Mrs. Yang Hou paused and said, "No."
Man Bao looked at the big girl who was serving at the side.
The big girl couldn't bear it any longer, she lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Madam was a little hot after eating the day before yesterday, so I went to jacket. The window in the room was open at that time, maybe it was because of the wind?"
Unfortunately, the day before yesterday happened to be cold in spring, and yesterday Man Bao couldn't resist wearing a cloak to go out. Today is also very cold, not much better than it was in the first month of the lunar year.
Man Bao was speechless for a while, looked carefully at Mrs. Yanghou's face and said: "I'll prescribe a prescription, and let's have a look at another set of needles."
She said: "You are suffering from cold now, be careful, you will not be able to catch cold and heat again."
Man Bao asked people to prepare hot water and a brazier, and then let most of the people retreat, and Madam Yang Hou unbuttoned her clothes and had needles.
It was already four quarters of an hour after a set of needles was done. Man Bao took the needles, looked at Mrs. Yang Hou who was sweating slightly, nodded slightly, and said to the servant: "Give her the medicine and cover it with the quilt." , It's almost enough to sweat all over, don't let her take a bath, just dry it with a warm towel."
The servants listened carefully, and then respectfully sent him to the second gate.
Steward Yu was already waiting, and immediately gave Zhou Man the red seal he had prepared, and Liu Sanniang also got one.
Butler Yu said with a smile: "Master Hou just asked, it's getting late, Miss Man, do you want to stay and eat before leaving?"
Man Bao declined, as she was not familiar with Lord Yang.
She asked, "When will Brother Yang leave for Xiazhou?"
Housekeeper Yu knew this, he said with a smile: "The date has been fixed, it is the queen, and the uncle will come back tomorrow."
Man Bao nodded, she knew that Yang Heshu hadn't set off to wait for the relief money from the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Ever since he was determined to be promoted to governor of Xiazhou, he was no longer in a hurry to return to Xiazhou, but stayed in the capital and started walking around.
Xiazhou is currently short of people, money, and goods, and it is hard to go back to the capital. Now that the big event has been decided, it is natural to bring more things before going back.
Coincidentally, there are some people and things in Xiazhou that need to be cleaned up, and it will take time.
Man Bao vaguely heard something from Bai Shan that there are rumors in Xiazhou now that the Niu family seems to be unable to stay in Xiazhou.
After leaving the Yang Mansion, Man Bao nodded to the butler, then got into the carriage and went straight home.
Liu Sanniang didn't go back to the Imperial Medical Office either, and went home directly with Man Bao.
Man Bao memorized Mrs. Yanghou's pulse in the study, and saved it in the imperial hospital tomorrow.
She was sitting at the desk and meditating. Zhou Liru looked at it and couldn't help but ask, "Sister, is there something wrong with this pulse case?"
"No, it's just that it's not easy to cure," she said, "I guess I'll have to take the medicine for half a month. It's been cold in spring recently, and the weather is very cold. Be careful when you go in and out."
In fact, Man Bao was thinking about the twelve patients in Huangzhuang. When she went to Huangzhuang the next day, she reached out and touched their quilts, and said to Xiao Yuan, "You must add an extra quilt for them, otherwise if they get infected The wind and cold may affect the results."
Xiao Yuanzheng thought about it for a while and agreed, but a new quilt is not cheap, so he took money from his office and sent people to a pawn shop to choose twelve quilts.
It was the first time Man Bao saw buying a quilt from a pawnshop, and it was extremely strange.
Xiao Yuanzheng saw it and said with a smile: "It's a bit like otherworldly things now, what things in this world can't be bought from pawnshops?"
He said: "The Ministry of Households has disliked the high cost of our report in the past two days. There is no way to do it. We can save some."
