Mrs. Pi Guogong is not a serious illness, as she is getting older and the seasons change, she will always feel a little uncomfortable.
After seeing it, Man Bao gave her a prescription and a set of acupuncture, advising her to eat less meat and eat more vegetables when spring came.
Then she wandered from Pi Guogong's mansion to Zhao Guogong's mansion on another street.
The people of Zhao Guogong's mansion didn't expect that the person who came would be Zhou Man, so they were stunned for a while.
Liu Sanniang, who was an assistant to Man Bao, couldn't help looking at them, "Why, isn't this a list from your Duke Zhao's mansion?"
The steward of Zhao Guogong's mansion immediately came to his senses, bowed his waist and said, "Yes, yes, Imperial Physician Zhou please come inside."
Mrs. Zhao Guogong's Shizi was lying on the bed, and Man Bao, a girl in her yard, ran in to report, "Ma'am, the imperial doctor is here."
Mrs. Shizi said: "Please come in."
Then he signaled the girl to put down the tent.
The girl didn't do anything, but leaned forward and whispered: "It's Doctor Zhou who came..."
Mrs. Shizi: ...
This was a bit unexpected, because of Zhou Man, she was fined twice in a row, and the illness was caused by Zhou Man.
Man Bao didn't move slowly into the back house, and soon reached the courtyard. Seeing that no one was leading her into the house, he turned to look at the nurse in charge.
Mammy's face was slightly stiff, and she immediately went to lift the curtain, and got in first to report, "Ma'am, Doctor Zhou is here."
I had already neglected once last time, so it is not good to neglect this time.
The people in the room reacted immediately, Mrs. Shizi said loudly: "Please come in quickly."
She supported the girl's hand to sit up, leaned on the pillow and coughed several times.
Man Bao and Liu Sanniang entered, first saluted her with a smile, and then asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Mrs. Shizi's face was a little pale, but she looked okay, she said a little uncomfortable: "I feel chest tightness, I always cough, and I can't sleep well at night."
The servant girl at the side immediately added: "Our wife invited the doctor to see her. She said she was suffering from a cold and prescribed medicine, but it didn't get better. She passed out when she woke up this morning. That's why she invited the imperial doctor."
Man Bao took another look at her face, felt her pulse, and asked, "What did Madam have for lunch?"
"Our lady is ill and has a poor appetite, so lunch is of no use."
Man Bao asked, "What did you have for breakfast?"
"I ate some japonica rice porridge for breakfast."
"How much is one point?"
The girl was stunned for a moment and then said: "Three spoons."
Man Bao asked, "Then what did you eat last night?"
"I ate a bowl of bird's nest porridge last night."
Man Bao: "Just eat bird's nest porridge."
"There's also medicine," the girl said, "That medicine spoils my appetite, so Madam can't eat."
Liu Sanniang couldn't help but look up at them.
Man Bao couldn't help but think, this is to be a fairy in the sky, just drink the wind and eat the dew.
Man Bao withdrew his hand, and said to the girl: "It's okay, the reason why your wife faints is because you are hungry, you go to the kitchen to cook a bowl of porridge, chop some minced meat, put it in and cook together, then add some oil, salt and green onion , send it when it’s done.”
The girl was stunned for a while, and couldn't help but look at their wife.
Mrs. Shizi's face turned red when she heard Zhou Man said that she was hungry. Seeing that the girl was still lingering and refusing to go down, she couldn't help but get angry, "What are you doing in a daze, didn't you hear what the doctor Zhou said?"
The girl immediately bowed and retreated.
Hungry, Man Bao couldn't do it even if she wanted to get an needle, so she simply went to prescribe a prescription, and handed it to Mrs. Shizi after prescribing, saying: "This is for dispelling cold and relieving cough, eat it after meals!"
Man Bao emphasized: "Don't worry, eat first and then take the medicine. No matter how bitter the medicine is, it can't lose your appetite for two hours. Don't be afraid, I also added some appetizing medicine for you. You will be able to eat after my medicine."
Mrs. Shizi: ... I always feel that she is eccentric.
Man Bao just sat and waited, and when the servants of their family finally prepared the meat porridge and served it, she watched her eat it.
Mrs. Shizi took a mouthful of the hot meat porridge, not to mention, her mouth was full of saliva, and her appetite started to whet!
Mrs. Shizi ate a bowl of porridge under Zhou Man's watchful eyes. After exhaling, she wiped her lips with a handkerchief reservedly and said, "Doctor Zhou, I'm done eating. Let's get an injection."
Man Bao: "You don't need to prick the needle."
Man Bao said: "Look, you sweat after eating, right? This is food replenishing the yang energy in your body and forcing out the cold air. If you can't eat anything in the future, you will eat meat porridge. This is delicious. gone."
After eating for three days, you are guaranteed that everything you eat is green, and you can't wait to eat it in one bite.
Not eating is also a disease, whether it is a weak spleen and stomach or a heart disease, it is a disease and must be cured!
Man Bao left the prescription and left.
Mrs. Shizi gritted her teeth, turned her head and told the girl next to her, "Go and wrap a red envelope and send it to her."
The girl whispered: "I gave you five taels of red envelopes earlier..."
"Change to a bigger one."
The girl understood, and hurriedly took out the purse that was going to be given to the imperial physician, and remembered that there were no large silver ingots of ten taels in the cabinet, so she simply stuffed another five taels of silver in it, and then ran to chase after the treasure. , smiled and stuffed the purse into her hand before she went out the second door.
Man Bao declined as usual, "This is my duty."
After all, it is also one of their duties to see a doctor for the rich and powerful. As long as they accept the order, they will come to see it.
"Yes," the girl said with a smile, "but our wife is very sorry for troubling Imperial Doctor Zhou to travel so far, so it is good to prepare the transportation fee for you, or take the money to drink a cup of tea, just take it. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the servant to turn around and explain."
Although it is the responsibility of the imperial physicians to come to see a doctor, it has always been the rule that they will pay some transportation fees when they invite someone to come to the door.
If the visiting imperial doctor doesn't accept it, then it's over. Either you offended the palace, or you offended the imperial hospital.
Man Bao pretended to decline twice before accepting, and took Liu Sanniang out.
Liu Sanniang didn't understand what Master was trying to do, so she couldn't help asking, "Master, why did you come to see her doctor?"
She had seen that prescription just now, and there was nothing wrong with it except that it was bitter and sour. It was a very good prescription.
Man Bao: "It's a list sent by Zheng Taiyi."
Liu Sanniang: "... Then what if Imperial Physician Zheng doesn't send you?"
"Then I won't come," Man Bao said inexplicably, "Do I have to force it?"
Liu Sanniang was dumbfounded.
Man Bao threw away the heavy purse in his hand and said: "Fool, this is a chance for them to make amends, and I come to the door again this time, just to return her slap in the face."
"But you didn't do anything."
"It's a slap in the face if you don't do anything. If I do, it's a slap in the face of our hospital. You may break the law and you will be asked to go to the county government or the criminal department for a few days."
Liu Sanniang: "...Master, you are thinking too much, I didn't mean that."
