Yu Jinnian took the maidservant to the backyard, led her to sit down at ease, brought a wet towel and told her to wipe her face, and then asked, "I forgot to ask last time, what's your name?"
The little maid stopped crying and replied in a low voice: "My name is Mei Dou..."
"Mei Dou?" Yu Jinnian thought, isn't this a name for food.
When he first came here, he thought it was a kind of vegetable that he often ate in his previous life. Later, he saw it in a tea shop, and it turned out to be a kind of rose-colored, sour and sweet tea. He thought it was very novel and asked the tea owner After the cooking method, I came back and did it myself once.
The ingredients are very simple, that is, red yeast rice powder, prunes, sugar and soybeans. Put the red yeast rice and prunes into the pot together, pour water to boil, add sugar, then pour the round and full soybeans into the pot and cook together, stirring a little from time to time to make it color and taste. When the thick soup and water run low, the beans have all turned into a rose red color, and the plum beans are ready, paired with a cup of bitter tea, the taste is quite unique.
Mei Dou seemed to see Yu Jinnian's doubts, and hurriedly said: "The servant girl was kidnapped by a kidnapper when she was very young. I don't remember what my name is. Later, I was sold several times by human teeth. I have all kinds of names, and I am not serious. Name... Because I love plum beans, all the elder sisters in Geli call me plum beans."
Yu Jinnian nodded, seeing that she had also calmed down, and said, "Meidou, speak slowly, what's wrong with Qing Huan?"
Mentioning this, Mei Dou immediately had tears in her eyes, her hands tightly clutching her knees, she looked at Yu Jinnian eagerly and said, "Brother Nian, I know you are a good person, I really can't help it, Sister Qing Huan is about to die, please show her..."
Yu Jinnian thought that Qing Huan had some kind of emergency, and wondered: "Qing Huan? Wasn't she well before, why did she become so seriously ill in just a few days?"
"It's not because of illness, but because of being beaten by the guard in the pavilion." Mei Dou sobbed again, "I don't know what's going on... That autumn evening, a rich master ordered sister Xueqiao's card, Invite her to go to the house for a drink, and sister Qing Huan will naturally follow. According to the porter who carried the sedan chair, the two sisters wanted to visit the He Street Night Market on the way back, so they asked the porter to wait at the entrance of the night market. They would naturally go there after shopping. Go back to the pavilion in a sedan chair at the street corner."
Mei Dou said incoherently: "But who knows, who knows... A group of porters waited until the early morning at the street corner, but they didn't see the two sisters coming back, so they knew something happened, so they hurried to look for it. In the end, only sister Qing Huan was caught. Sister Xueqiao is missing..."
Hearing this, Yu Jinnian couldn't help frowning, and he knew why Qing Huan was disciplined by his master.
As I said before, the popular ladies in Goulan Garden are often accompanied by a young girl who has not opened her face. Played the role of monitoring, reminding, and containing these red card girls.
If the girls made mistakes, such as rejecting customers for their own selfish desires, being disrespectful to customers, or even having any other thoughts, these little girls would be together and disciplined extremely harshly. Not only to force the flower girls to commit the crime honestly, but also to serve as a warning to other flower girls in the building. Although there are some girls who are hard-spoken and cruel-hearted, most of the girls are still soft-hearted. Seeing the young lady being tortured in front of them, they will quickly bow their heads and admit their mistakes.
But Qing Huan's matter was a little different.
Xueqiao ran away - this is a taboo in Goulan Yuanfang, a first-class crime. And when Xueqiao ran away, Qing Huan was still with her. It would be fine if they were caught, but right now, only Qing Huan herself was caught. Even if she was beaten to death for a shameless girl, in the eyes of the madam and the guard, it was nothing more than a loss of a few taels of silver.
Mei Dou cried: "The teacher in charge asked her where sister Xueqiao had fled, but sister Qing Huan didn't say a word, she just refused to speak. The teacher in charge hung her up and beat her... full of blood, interrupted..."
Yu Jinnian was thinking about the ins and outs of this matter, when he suddenly heard something broken, he came back to his senses and asked, "What did you say, what broke it?"
"The leg, the leg is broken... Sister Qing Huan has a bad temper, and the guard master beat her to death." Mei Dou cried and rolled down from the stool and knelt down again, hugging Yu Jinnian's leg and looking at him, "They Seeing that Qing Huan's sister's legs were broken, she refused to say anything, and she was about to die, and she couldn't be a listed girl in the future. They just rolled her up on a mat and threw her out of the city."
"The other sisters were afraid of being implicated, so they didn't dare to intercede, so they all hid. I begged my mother, and I also begged the teacher in charge, but I'm just a maidservant, useless." Mei Dou knelt on the ground, She wiped her face with the back of her hand, half of her sleeves were wet, and she was out of breath from crying, "I know I'm ugly and no one likes me, but Sister Qinghuan and Sister Xueqiao are very kind to me. Let me have some snacks... I don't want Sister Qinghuan to die... When other medical clinics saw that I had no money, they kicked me out... "
Ji Hong couldn't help frowning, but didn't speak. He turned to look at Yu Jinnian.
Mei Dou took out a handful of copper coins from her sleeve. The copper coins were stained with mud and blood. Even if she counted miles, there were only a few dozen. She held it up in front of Yu Jinnian with her hands wide open. : "I know Brother Nian, you will also see a doctor... I know that these are definitely not enough, I will pay it back, I will definitely pay it back! I can still... I can carry the wine jar, and if you lift five, you will get a copper coin."
Look at her slender arms and legs, she could fall down when she carried more books before, but now she said she was going to lift the wine urn, even a grown man might not be able to lift that thing in one go. Besides, the wounds on Mei Dou's body and head, it seems like this is how she knelt down through many medical clinics before she finally knelt down to Yu Jinnian's place.
"It's not about the money." Yu Jinnian went to pull Meidou, Meidou knelt on the ground and refused to get up, and she was also very stubborn. Yu Jinnian sighed, and thought, this is because I saw my soft heart, and came here to restrain me, so he said: "Okay, don't cry, where is Qing Huan now?"
Mei Dou was taken aback, not only did not stop her tears, but she cried even more fiercely, she kowtowed while crying, and kept repeating: "Thank you, thank you—"
Ji Hong bowed his head, pursed his lower lip, turned his head and walked into the room. When he came out again, he had already hung a cloak on his elbow.
Yu Jinnian glanced at him: "What are you going to do again? Where are you going?"
Ji Hong said: "That depends on where you are going."
Yu Jinnian smiled sadly, and said: "Okay, okay, you are all my ancestors." He lowered his head and asked Mei Dou: "Where is Qing Huan? Is it true that her leg is broken, but has she moved again?"
Seeing that Yu Jinnian agreed to save people, Mei Dou finally calmed down, but her eyes were still red, and she explained in detail: "After they threw Sister Qing Huan out, I took the time to go out and splash dirty clothes to find her." …the bones were protruding, and I didn't know what to do, so I dragged her to an abandoned hut nearby on an old plank."
Even Meidou could see the bone, it was not only broken, but also an open fracture—more tricky than expected.
Without further ado, Yu Jinnian told Erniang what happened, then closed the shop and hurried out of the city.
There is a dense forest one mile outside the city, with dense branches and leaves, and weeds are tall, and no one can see a dead body thrown into it. Mei Dou led the two of them around for a long time, only to see Ye San Lin, and a dilapidated thatched hut that was about to collapse beside the stream.
The thatched hut must have been abandoned for many years, and even the door opening is half crooked. If you want to get in, you have to bend down and drill in. When drilling the hole, Yu Jinnian's hair was caught by something, he stretched out his hand and pulled it hard, immediately a piece of yellow mud fell down, flying dust all over his mouth.
——Just this kind of environment where dust and mud are flying together is enough for Yu Jinnian to be bald with worry.
"Sister Qinghuan, I've invited a doctor!" Mei Dou ran in excitedly.
"Ahem!" A weak voice in the corner panted for a while, and responded, "Meidou? Didn't you say don't waste money, I'm dying... You take, take the money, so that you can... redeem yourself... "
Mei Dou held her hand, sniffled and said, "Look, I invited brother Nian."
Yu Jinnian first smelled a faint smell of blood, and then turned his head to see Qing Huan leaning against the corner of the mud.
He was silent for a moment.
This beautiful and charming little lady, whose laughter was as cute as a silver bell, shyly swayed into Ji Hong's arms when she first saw her, and when she saw her again, she leaned on the railing with Yu Jinnian to listen to an excerpt. It was only the third time we met now, but she was covered in blood, her description was messy, and her complexion was pale. The most frightening thing was that her right calf was bent at an unimaginable angle, her flesh and bones were protruding, and the torn cloth under her body was covered in blood. The mat was also half-stained black.
Ji Hong then walked in and stood beside Yu Jinnian.
There was some dry straw on Qing Huan's back, she opened her eyes to look at it, and managed to pull out a not-so-good-looking smile, and said, "Master Ji... I'm sorry, Qing Huan can't sing for Mr. Ji anymore." …”
It was rare for Ji Hong not to keep silent, he said: "Okay, let's sing."
Qing Huan was sweating from the pain, but still smiled: "Okay."
"Stop talking, save some energy." Yu Jinnian squatted beside Qing Huan, checking her up and down carefully. I can’t have any illusions about the leg—an open tibial fracture, the broken bone is about two inches long, and there are muscle tears around the wound, and obvious mud pollution can be seen, which is already a second-degree fracture.
The blood was still flowing little by little, Yu Jinnian pressed two blood vessels with his fingers to determine which blood vessel it was, then quickly tore one from the hem of his clothes, and stuck it on the ankle of Qing Huan's injured leg.
At this time, the leg is the most serious, and the ligation time should not be too long, otherwise the blood supply will be blocked and the whole leg will be damaged. But Yu Jinnian had other worries, he ordered: "Remove the straw behind her, and lay it flat." He added: "Slow down, don't raise too much dust."
Mei Dou quickly and carefully removed the straw, and put Qing Huan flat on the ground.
Qing Huan said: "Brother Nian, don't be too busy... If possible, I would like to try the ice skin moon balls you made again, Brother Nian, it is the best thing I have ever eaten..."
"Don't talk." Yu Jinnian ordered, reaching out to test Qing Huan's body temperature.
Oops, it's hot.
Mei Dou also rubbed her eyes, forced a smile and said, "When Sister Qing Huan recovers, there are still many delicious things to eat!"
Yu Jinnian touched and pressed Qing Huan's body with his hands, or lightly squeezed it, from head to abdomen, and occasionally asked her whether it hurts or not, and how it hurt, Qing Huan answered them one by one. He stretched out his hand again and put his palm on it. With the other hand, he tapped the back of the front finger vertically with the pad of the middle finger, and listened carefully to the movement under the skin. Finally, he scratched lightly with his fingernails at the special positions of her legs and feet on both sides.
Ji Hong looked at Yu Jinnian without blinking, sometimes he would listen to his orders and help out a little.
He finished all these very quickly, but it only took a moment. Yu Jinnian was able to figure it out. He went through all the treatment methods and possibilities in his mind, but he still had some concerns, so he had to stand up and said: "Qing Huan, you And listen, I have two ways to treat you now, and you have to make a decision yourself."
Qing Huan asked: "Which... two kinds?"
Yu Jinnian said: "First, cut off your broken leg directly at the knee. This method can save your life and heal faster. The disadvantage is that you will lose a leg in the future."
Before Qing Huan answered, Mei Dou hurriedly asked: "What about the other one?"
"The other way... I have to remove the bad meat from your broken bone, cut the flesh, put the broken bone back together, and then sew it up with needles and threads." None of the three present, including Ji Hong, had heard of this treatment method. They all opened their eyes wide, and Mei Dou seemed to have seen the dawn, quite radiant, but Qing Huan was still neither happy nor sad, waiting for Yu Jinnian's next words. He did have a follow-up, he said: "It's just that I'm not completely sure about this method. Maybe it will heal after suturing, or maybe it will be worse. If you suffer from the latter kind, amputating this limb is the lightest thing." The consequences are even more serious... life is lost."
"Although I suggest amputating the broken leg directly. But I also know that maybe for you, losing a leg may not be better than losing your life. So... I have to tell you both ways, and you can do it yourself choose."
"Okay." Qing Huan didn't seem to think at all, so she replied, "...I'll choose the second one."
Yu Jinnian frowned: "Think again."
Qing Huan glanced at Meidou who was holding her hand tightly beside her, closed her eyes, and said, "I think too much. It is because I think too much that I have today's result... That's it, the second This sounds very powerful, it has nothing to do with life or death, I just want to try... Brother Nian, the dishes you cook are so delicious, and the healing must be very powerful... "
What kind of logic is this
Yu Jinnian thought she was in too much pain, and she was a little confused.
It's just that she made such a firm choice, and Yu Jinnian should do her best.
He looked around and said, "Not here. Meidou, see if there is a cart that can be rented nearby, first take Qing Huan back to a bowl of noodle shop, hurry up, then go to Canyi Street to buy some drawn silk thread, this It's silver taels. Ji Hong, you go back with the car, buy a pot of the strongest wine, boil a pot of hot water and a pot of thick onion soup, prepare tissue paper and clean cloth, and ask Erniang for the smallest one. Needle... well, move on!"
Ji Hong nodded to show he remembered, and asked Yu Jinnian, "Where are you going?"
Yu Jinnian hurried out, and replied: "I have to go to Pingkang Pharmacy to prepare some medical supplies."
The three parted ways, and Yu Jinnian ran all the way to Pingkang Pharmacy, specifying that he wanted Peach Blossom Powder. Peach Blossom Powder is the most effective for treating wounds and wounds. Stir-fried red lime is used to relieve pain and stop bleeding, and it is combined with fried rhubarb to relieve pain and stop bleeding. We were weighing the weight here, and an old gentleman with white hair came out from the back hall. Hearing that what Yu Jinnian was going to weigh was peach blossom powder, he casually asked what it was for.
Yu Jinnian also wanted to borrow or rent some surgical tools from them, so he replied respectfully, "It's for stopping bleeding after suturing the broken bone."
Hearing this, the old man shook his head again and again, and said bluntly: "Ten out of ten will die, and the other can only be amputated to save his life. The boy is young, so he must not treat people rashly and kill others, and the skin and flesh of a person are not The fabric of the clothes, sewn with needles and threads is really sensational."
"If you don't believe me, sir, you can go with me." Yu Jinnian said, "However, I have the guts to borrow a pair of surgical tools from sir, such as a knife for cutting skin and wounds, as well as sword needles, needles, etc. The boy is willing to pledge silver taels. It must be returned after use."
The old gentleman thought for a moment, then sighed: "Forget it, take the medicine and equipment away."
Yu Jinnian thought that he would interrogate him more, or even stop him, but unexpectedly he agreed in this way, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly lowered his hands to thank: "Thank you, sir."
* *
Back at a bowl of noodle shop, Mei Dou and Ji Hong had done all the things he ordered. He boiled all the dishes, knives, needles and silk threads he needed in boiling water and wiped them with spirits. And let everyone clean their hands and wipe them with strong wine.
After that, a few tables were put together, clean bed towels were spread, and Qing Huan was moved up to lie flat. She seemed a little nervous, she kept blinking her eyes, and looked at the people around her.
Yu Jin said in a young voice: "I used needles to relieve the pain, but there may still be some lingering pain unavoidable. If you are nervous, please talk to us."
Seeing that Qing Huan nodded, he started to pierce a few needles into the corresponding pain-relief acupoints—so there was no good way to anesthetize and relieve pain at the time, and he didn't know how to make the legendary Mabosan. Fortunately, He once learned the technique of acupuncture anesthesia from his teacher, and the curative effect is also very good. He turned to Ji Hong who had cleaned his hands, and said firmly, "Ji Hong, from now on, without my order, you are not allowed to let go of your hands, and you are not allowed to touch anywhere."
Ji Hong: "Okay."
Yu Jinnian fetched a single-edged knife and closed his eyes. This was a complete debridement and closed reduction of an open fracture. However, his mentor in the previous life had told him more than once that he must pay equal attention to both Chinese and Western medicines, and only by knowing himself and the enemy can he be victorious in all battles. Therefore, even though he was born in Chinese medicine, he had also been on the operating table and served as an assistant in many operations. Today, it is he who is the chief surgeon. And the real first surgery in life was under such harsh conditions where complete sterility and complete isolation could not be achieved.
The moment he picked up the knife, there was a sudden beating in his heart, and he retreated.
"If the reset fails and infection occurs, how can he control the infection without antibiotics? If he makes a mistake during the operation and loses too much blood, how can he save it? If in the end, Qing Huan dies because of the wrong treatment advice he gave, what will he do?" How should I deal with myself?" A voice from the bottom of my heart said to myself, "Just amputate the severed limb, at least the chance of surviving like this will be higher..."
"Jin Nian." Ji Hong suddenly called his name.
Yu Jinnian looked up at him, but he didn't know that his eyes were full of confusion.
If it wasn't for the young man's instruction, he was not allowed to touch anything with his hands, otherwise Ji Hong would definitely want to shake the young man's hand or touch his face at this time, instead of just standing opposite him. He frowned slightly, and said: "Qing Huan has already chosen, now it's your choice, Jinnian. But no matter how you choose, and how you succeed or fail in the end, no one here will hate you or blame you."
Qing Huan also said word by word: "It's just that if you lose your legs like this, it will... not look good in the future!"
Yu Jinnian only felt a sweet and bitter taste in his throat, he couldn't describe what it was like, he took a deep breath. Turning around, rinse the wound with boiled water, and then wash it again with thick onion soup, then take two deep breaths, squeeze the single-edged knife tightly, and cut towards the wound on Qing Huan's leg.
Debride the wound to remove the bad meat that may be contaminated, restore the bone tissue, and then suture the fascia and skin with silk thread.
"Ji Hong, refers to scraping the handle of the needle to invigorate the needle."
Acupuncture is effective only when the needle is invigorated.
Perhaps it was his earnest expression without raising his head that added to the solemn atmosphere in the room. No one dared to speak at the moment, and Mei Dou dared not say anything. She closed her eyes and did not dare to look at Qing Huan's lap. In the bloody scene, I just silently prayed in my heart that it would end soon, and hoped that Qing Huan would get better.
In the end, Qing Huan, who should be the most nervous, opened his mouth first.
"Actually... I knew for a long time that sister Xueqiao wanted to escape, and I let her go..."

Pps, the environment in ancient times could not completely isolate bacteria, and the success rate of surgery was very low. Therefore, the treatment method in the article is only theoretically feasible, and for the sake of the plot, there are exaggerated elements, so don't over-investigate the feasibility.
ppps, the ancient times were not completely devoid of surgical operations. In Tang Dynasty’s "Thousands of Golden Prescriptions" there was onion tube catheterization; Song, Jin and Yuan Dynasties also had works on surgical treatment; in Ming Dynasty Chen Shigong wrote "Surgery Authentic", which recorded and created many feasible methods. Surgical treatments with high sexuality and specific operations, such as carbuncle, gold wound, tetanus, amputation, and even suture in the method of saving suicide and cutting throat, etc., have survived countless lives, which shows the infinite wisdom of the ancients.
