No Worries about Food and Medicine

Chapter 121: A drink

Views:

Although the woman is elegant and luxurious, she is decorated with gold and jade, but she is indeed not young, there are many fine wrinkles on the corners of her face and eyes, and her skin is much rougher than that of the ladies in Beijing. According to the customs of the Xia people, a girl is married as early as 13 or 14 years old, and as late as double ten, otherwise she will be called an old girl.

However, looking at the age of the lady in front of her, she is old enough to be a grandmother in some fast-moving families.

Yu Jinnian walked up quickly, and when he came to him, he lifted the veil and squinted to look at the child, but his eyesight was indeed poor, he could only see the child's convulsions, but couldn't distinguish the more detailed symptoms, so he immediately asked: " Ma'am, can you let me have a look at this child, I know a little bit about medicine, maybe I can save this child's life."

He didn't think too much about it. When encountering urgent patients on the street, any kind-hearted doctor would not be able to ignore them. What's more, the young child's convulsions are a critical illness, and he can't wait for a moment.

When the woman panicked, she instinctively took a step back, and looked at the young man in front of her vigilantly. She saw that he was dressed in blue-patterned heavy brocade clothes. Great, always squinting hard. Naturally, she didn't trust a boy who suddenly appeared in the market, let alone he was half-blind.

However, this place is Shibao Street where there are many restaurants and restaurants, and there is no medical hall nearby, and what she regrets the most is that she just sent servants and maidservants to buy cloth in the next-door market, and now there is no one who can drive a car. And my master didn't know where he went, because he wanted to discuss important matters with others. She hesitated, wondering whether she should trust Yu Jinnian or not—at this moment, the baby in her arms suddenly opened her mouth and twitched twice, and then turned her neck back and twitched again.

The woman was so frightened that she lost her soul, and before she could react, Yu Jinnian had already stepped forward, with her right hand helping to support the child who was about to fall out of her arms, while the little finger of the other hand took advantage of the child's mouth to open its teeth. It quickly reached into the child's mouth, and gently pressed the tip of the child's tongue to prevent him from accidentally biting his tongue.

As soon as the child twitched, his teeth were closed tightly, and he snapped and bit Yu Jinnian's little finger. Even though it was a child, the strength of the convulsions was not small. He frowned slightly after being bitten, felt the unusual heat in the child's mouth, and then said to the woman: "Put him down first, open the wrap, don't No more boredom."

The woman didn't know whether she should listen to the young man's words, and she was struggling. Her gaze caught on to an oval jade pendant hanging from his waist. The suet-white jade was moistened just right, and a rose was carved on the jade surface. flower. She wondered for a moment, but she let go of her guard a little bit, slowly put the child in the car, doubted for a moment, finally gritted her teeth and decided to trust him once, and opened the child's blanket.

The child's back was already wet with sweat. Yu Jinnian quickly untied the child's clothes, rolled up the outer shirt and brocade, and only pinched the sleeves of the soft cotton jacket inside, gently wiped off the wet sweat from the child's head and body, and touched it again. He touched his little hands and feet, and protected him a little bit, preventing his hands and feet from hitting hard objects and hurting himself when he twitched.

"How is my son?" the woman asked anxiously.

The child's face was red and angry, his head and body were burning hot, and now he convulsed several times, obviously caused by febrile convulsions, which are more dangerous convulsions among children's diseases. As the saying goes, if you are urgent, you will treat the symptoms, and if you are slow, you will cure the root cause. At this time, regardless of the original syndrome or the original syndrome, the immediate priority should be to resuscitate and calm the shock. Otherwise, the convulsions will continue, and the child's brain may be injured, which is commonly known as "burning stupid".

Yu Jinnian didn't have time to explain to the woman in detail, so he raised his voice and called, "Brother Duan, bring a basin of cold water!" He raised his head, and quickly asked the woman, "Are there any embroidery needles in the car?" Seeing that the woman turned her head to get it , and immediately turned back and shouted, "Ah Hong!"

Ji Hong nodded, returned to the restaurant just now, picked up the candle holder on the cabinet, took the fire bag, and walked quickly towards Yu Jinnian.

The woman brought a needle, and saw a man in front of the car holding a candle lamp, being ordered around by the young man, she was taken aback for a moment, she was about to speak, but was interrupted by Ji Hong shaking his head, and motioned her with his eyes Take care of the kids first. She suppressed many words, got into the car, and handed over the sewing needle to the young man. Seeing Ji Hong standing outside the car, her heart hanging in her throat was slightly relieved.

If this young man is a doctor invited by Duke Li's mansion, even if he is a little younger, he should have some skills, not to mention the little gentleman who can let the son of Duke Li work hard and hold the candlestick, I am afraid that it is not only "some skills" "So simple.

Earlier, she heard that Li Guogong's son, who had been ill for more than a year, had recently been helped by a genius doctor and suddenly got better. She thought it was just a boast of the people in Beijing. The son is really recovering from illness.

Yu Jinnian took the needle and burned it over the candle held by Ji Hongduan, then took the child's little hand, kneaded the fingers with his index finger and thumb, and then held the needle in his right hand, pierced it firmly, accurately and decisively. The tip of the child's delicate, white and soft little finger is exactly the junction between the nail and the flesh of the finger. After piercing through the skin, he immediately rushed the blood from the pulp to the fingertips, released two or three drops, and then pricked the second finger.

The child's mother was heartbroken when she saw it. She didn't know what Yu Jinnian was going to do with the needle, but she didn't expect it to be used to prick the child's finger. She is used to knowing that sometimes when torture is carried out in secret in the army, a kind of punishment of finger pricking is often used, and the pain can scream through the entire tent. She loves her son very much, how can she see people treat her child like this, and said anxiously: "What are you doing? He is still so young!"

Ji Hongfang wanted to open his mouth, but he heard that the young man had already spoken, his words were as calm as usual, and he was not shaken by the woman's questioning and condemnation.

"Ma'am, please be quiet. Just count to thirty. After thirty, your son will stop convulsing himself, and return to his senses." Yu Jinnian only moved his mouth, but kept his hands. After stabbing three fingers, the child's convulsions were gone. Gradually stopped, but the mind was still not clear, he turned the child over again, made him lie on his body, stroked the highest point of the vertebrae at the back of the neck with his fingers, which is the Dazhui point, and stabbed it.

Dazhui's strong neck, back pain, febrile disease, dyspnea, epilepsy, convulsions in children. This acupoint is the confluence of the three yang governor vessels, so it can clear the yangming, open the sun, and regulate the qi of the six yang meridians. Because of this, Dazhui can nourish and relieve, while Yu Jinnian only uses the method of single purging at this time, clearing pathogenic heat and excess, and dredging the meridians to relieve spasm. Because the child was young, his skin was thin and his neck was the most tender and dangerous place, he only pierced with the needle for less than half an inch.

Even though his eyesight is bad, these acupuncture points have long been memorized in his heart, and he can find them accurately without much effort, practice makes perfect.

After such an operation, the baby in his arms fell silent for a moment, then suddenly opened his mouth, and howled with a "wow"!

The stone hanging from Yu Jinnian's throat finally fell back into his stomach. He put the child back on the brocade quilt, and gently stroked the back of his hand to test it out. After a while, he felt that the heat on his head had gradually receded. He still had a fever, but not enough to be life-threatening. At this time, Duan Ming, who was sent to fetch water, also came back, and handed over a basin filled with cold well water to Yu Jinnian.

The cold well water came up from a few feet below the ground, and the cold air wrapped around his fingers, reminding him of the coldness in the dumb room for a moment, and he couldn't help but lose his mind. Seeing that he was suddenly still, Ji Hong put his hand on his shoulder and rubbed it gently. Yu Jinnian came back from a trance, hurriedly took out the brocade handkerchief in his sleeve, soaked it in cold water and wrung it dry, and spread it on the child's forehead, then took out the plain silk from Ji Hong's waist without asking, which was also soaked for use Wipe the child's extremities.

"Children with high fever are already dangerous, so they should be taken care of carefully. Today, I saw that your son's complexion is red and red, his tongue is slightly greasy, and his pulse is floating..." Only then can Yu Jinnian take the time to feel his pulse. Children's wrists and arms are thin, and it is difficult for adults to determine the pulse of inches, so we only use the thumb to designate the three pulses, move back and forth slightly, and measure the three pulses.

Then he raised his head and said to the woman: "Young master must be suffering from wind-heat and evil depression, disturbing his mind. He lost his cure due to long-term depression, and the extreme heat generated wind, so he convulsed. Although the convulsions are temporarily stopped, this is only for first aid. It’s just a law. Of course, after that, you need to be diagnosed and treated by a doctor you trust, take medicine, completely subside the heat, and get rid of the evil, so that you can safely pass through this catastrophe.”

After finishing speaking, he bowed and got out of the sedan chair, thinking that this lady should be a mother for the first time and not very good at taking care of children, so he added a few key points of child care: "The weather is getting warmer now, and your son is suffering from the heat. If the wind is blowing, the quilt is not appropriate. The child’s yang energy is strong, so there is no need for these wraps. After a few days, the weather will be hot, and only a small thin quilt can be used to cover the belly below the waist.”

The woman was about to wrap the child in a quilt, when he heard what he said, she quickly opened the quilt and even claimed that she remembered it.

The child has indeed settled down, and this cannot be faked. The woman's suspicions at the beginning disappeared. She picked up the child and only thanked him. She asked his name and said that she would go to thank him in person in the future. Yu Jinnian shook his head, when he got out of the carriage, he felt the sun was glaring, and couldn't help but want to use Ji Hong's tall figure to block the white light in front of his eyes, Ji Hong took a step forward, and naturally covered the black veil on his head.

"He Fang Xiaoxiao!" A man angrily walked out of the food hall not far away, looked up and saw their noisy place, and saw a young man get out of the car, and immediately pointed in their direction and shouted, "You actually entered my wife's car tent !"

Yu Jinnian was so frightened that he immediately hid behind Ji Hong. Although he was there to save others, he came uninvited after all, and got into the lady's car and sedan chair first, so it is understandable for her husband to be angry.

The woman hurried over and called "Master".

Ji Hong also turned around, and said kindly: "General Lu, Madam Lu."

Yu Jinnian touched his head quietly and looked up, good guy, he cured a disease casually, and he cured the head of a high-ranking official and aristocrat.

The person in front of him is Lu Wei, the famous Suiyuan General of the Great Xia, because of his meritorious service in the Northwest, he is very famous and prestigious in the court, and is highly relied on by the emperor; She is the wife of Yipin who was personally appointed by the emperor of the current dynasty. Speaking of this matter, Lu Wei himself can only be commended for his outstanding military achievements, but his wife is even more legendary.

During the battle in the northwest at that time, Lu Weima stumbled, and a small group of elites led by him were lured into the depths of the yellow sand by the enemy, and did not return for several days. In the desert, not only is the sky full of yellow sand, but there are also small bands of bandits running around. It is difficult for ordinary men to guarantee that they will come back in one piece, not to mention that Mrs. Lu is just a talented official who does not touch the spring water with her ten fingers. Noble girl, but she was not afraid of hardships and persuasion, and insisted on going her own way, leading a camel deep into the hinterland of the desert.

Ten and a half months later, everyone thought that the couple had died in Huangsha, and when preparing for the funeral, she carried Lu Wei out of the desert alone. In the early morning of that day, when she walked into Xia Jun's camp covered in blood, even Lu Wei's old subordinates were stunned, and it took a long time to react before they knew how to pick her up.

Later, General Lu returned home after winning the battle, but his wife was shot in the lower abdomen by bandit arrows in the desert, injuring the uterus, and it was impossible to conceive and have children in this life.

Lu Wei and Fan's marriage was concluded according to the order of their parents and the words of the matchmaker, and because Lu Wei went to the battlefield not long after getting married, and did not return for several years, the two of them got together less and separated more. If we talk about feelings, it is true It wasn't very deep, but after this encounter, the two became more affectionate. Over the years, countless people have persuaded Lu Wei to have another marriage to pass on Lu's blood, but Lu Wei treated them coldly, saying, "Madam treats me like this, how can I be that heartless person?" ".

The incident was reported back to Beijing, and the emperor was moved by it. After rewarding Lu Wei as usual, he also granted his wife a first-rank imperial order.

It is also a good story.

There were crowds of people on Shibao Street, some recognized Lu Wei, some wondered why he came back from the northwest at this time, and some gathered around to watch the excitement, but they were all surprised when they saw the child in Mrs. Lu's arms puzzled. I only wondered in my heart, didn't everyone know that this surnamed Lu has no children and no heirs, why did a little baby suddenly appear

General Lu is a tough man, and he has been tempered in the army all year round. The last thing he knows is flattery. He took a closer look and recognized the person in front of him as Ji Hong. Prince of the state? Why are you here?" Then he turned his head to look at the little man hidden behind Ji Hong, "Dare to ask the prince, who is this?"

The woman took the words and immediately explained: "Master, it was that little gentleman who saved my family's Axi's life. Just now Axi was convulsing and frightened me. I didn't know what to do for a while, thanks to that little gentleman's medical skills." You are clever and decisive, and this stopped Ah Xi's illness."

Hearing what he said, Lu Wei took a closer look at the past, only to notice that the clothing on Yu Jinnian's body was a royal tribute, and even in the imperial city, few palaces could receive this reward. He specially bestowed several pieces of heavy brocade, which are still stored in his own warehouse, and he is not willing to use them for cutting. Such an expensive cloth was fine if it wasn't draped over Ji Hong's own shoulders, but it was surprising that it was worn on a young man whom he had never heard of or seen before, not to mention the rose jade eggs hanging around his waist.

Ji Hong slightly turned his body sideways, half blocking in front of the young man. Lu Wei had seen countless people, and he knew that this was a subconscious gesture of protection, which showed how much he valued the young man. After Lu Wei heard the whole story, he thought for a while, then turned his head to look at the anxious lady, patted her hand lightly to show comfort, and then saluted Ji Hong and the two: "If that's the case, Lu A certain generation of in-laws, thank you Xiao Shizi and this gentleman first... I will definitely come to thank you someday."

For him to be able to say that was already a great face for the Ji family. No one knew at the time that General Lu Wei of Suiyuan was the most upright. Now that there is an undercurrent in the court, no one dares to mention it on the bright side, but each family has a bright mirror in their hearts. One of the minxiang, one of the eunuchs of the Lu party, and one of the king of Yue, whoever is on the team is already an official. Those who choose carefully and cautiously.

Lu Wei holds a lot of power and has hundreds of thousands of cavalry under his command. He is the target that all forces want to win over. However, he has been an official for more than ten years and has never stood in line. Although he has been excluded from the capital all the year round and lives in poverty, But also chic. Min Xuefei threw olive branches at him more than once, and Lu Wei just pretended not to see him, let alone visit him. Today, he opened his mouth and said that he would go to Li Guogong's mansion to thank him for the sake of his wife and children. It really shocked the front teeth of others. .

Who says a strong man has no tenderness.

Ji Hong raised his eyebrows secretly, and glanced at the young man hiding behind him from the corner of his eye. Through a thin layer of black veil, he could still see the innocent expression on his face, and he couldn't help sighing in his heart: Some little things can Really lucky star. This is what is called breaking through the iron shoes and finding nowhere to find it, and it takes no effort to get it.

As soon as the voice on the downstairs side finished speaking, upstairs, in the half-open window, a person suddenly stood up, swiped his sleeves and put a cup on the table. Zhou Feng went to pick it up immediately, but it might as well have dropped a few small cups on the ground, spewing broken porcelain all over the place, and the crimson sleeves of the person in front of the case were also soaked with deep tea stains, so Zhou Feng carefully went to pick them up. After wiping, he was also pushed away violently by the other party, and said harshly between his eyebrows: "Why is there him everywhere!"

That General Lu, who was sitting in this tea room half a quarter of an hour ago, was going straight to his master without any detours, but now he is politely claiming that he is going to visit Jifu, Zhou Feng dare not say more, just whispered : "It should just be a coincidence..."

"Coincidentally, he—" Yan Chang opened his mouth, then closed it again, cursing in a lowered voice, "Get lost."

Zhou Feng knew what he wanted to scold, so he got out immediately without waiting for him to scold.

Yan Chang grabbed the only remaining white porcelain pot on the case and was about to drop it when he saw a black gauze veil passing by under the window. In the middle of the wine shop, he lost his mind for a moment, then he stopped the teapot heavily, and said to himself: "I shouldn't have let you go."

"Zhou Feng," he called again, "get out."

Zhou Feng poked his head in: "What is the master's order?"

Yan Chang asked, "What kind of shop is that?"

Zhou Feng looked down, and replied: "It's the place where drunk spring is sold. This wine is very strong. Ten years ago, it was popular in the capital. It was the best wine for the second son of the Ji family. , but there is also some business.”

Yan Chang let out a breath of depression, sat down and said, "Go and make a pot."

Zhou Feng was in a dilemma: "This wine...they only sell one drink."

Yan Chang raised his eyes, and saw the adulterer and adulterer coming out of a small room, and the young man was bouncing around, causing a veil to flutter in front of him. What a big jar of drunken spring covered with red silk! In the other hand, he was still holding a small and exquisite wine gourd, and he was eagerly pouring it into his mouth. Ji Hong got into the car, put his hands out, and dragged the alcoholic young man under the car up.

In front of the window, the tea was cold and cool, Yan Chang watched them go away, couldn't help but sneered, and asked: "I only sell one cup of Drunken Spring...how come there are thousands of rules in the world, but when you come to him, they won't count?"

Zhou Feng: "..."
