Aunt Lian brought an umbrella, and Yang Haiyan said, "Madam, please take care of it."
The two entered the tent next door, and saw the doctor examining Meng Qiu, while Mrs. Meng Qiu held Meng Qiu's hand with red eyes. All these years, she only had Meng Qiu as her daughter, so she loved her very much. Now that her daughter was sick, she wished that she was the one who was sick. While holding her daughter's hand, Mrs. Meng Qiu asked anxiously: "Doctor, how is my daughter? Is she okay?"
After observing Meng Qiu's condition, the doctor said, "Her fever is quite severe. If the fever doesn't go away, it will be a serious problem. Drink a bowl of decocted medicine first." Fortunately, the medicine was decocted in advance when it rained yesterday and has been kept warm. Otherwise, if she suddenly got a fever and cooled down, it would be too late to decoct the medicine.
Mrs. Meng Qiu was anxious: "If the fever doesn't go away..."
The doctor did not answer this question: "Use cold water to reduce her fever."
Yang Haiyan knew that in ancient times, cold water was used to reduce fever, which was to use a towel dipped in cold water, wrung out, and then placed on the forehead, or to use a towel dipped in cold water, wrung out, and then used to wipe the child's body. But these were also quite dangerous. In modern times, a cold is a minor problem, just like the smallest dental surgery, which is very safe. But in ancient times, a cold could kill people.
Looking at Meng Qiu on the couch, this little girl was usually very well behaved, collecting firewood with her mother Meng Qiu, and was very sensible. But at this moment, her face was red, and she looked sick.
Yang Haiyan sighed and said, "Mammy, ask Aunt Fan to make some rice porridge and bring it to Meng Qiu later."
Aunt Lian: “Yes.”
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Meng Qiu said gratefully, "Thank you, Madam." But she was also weak, as her attention was now focused on her children.
After Meng Qiushi, people came in one after another, most of them felt hot in the head, dry throat, and some even had runny nose. Yang Haiyan looked for a while and then left the main tent.
As soon as they arrived at the main tent, Yang Haiyan said, "Mammy, you guard the door and don't let anyone in, even the general."
Nanny Lian was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "Yes." Although she didn't understand what the lady meant, she believed that the lady and the general were in love, and since the lady had kept it a secret, there must be a reason.
The main tent was made up of three tents connected together. The middle one was where Qin Fang worked and where the Qin family ate. The left one was where Qin Fang and Qin Shoucheng slept. The right one was where Yang Haiyan, Qin Siya, and Nanny Lian slept. As for Aunt Fan and Aunt Yu, they slept with the food supplies.
Yang Haiyan entered the tent on the right and then opened the platform. It seemed that she had not opened the platform for a long time. Before, she opened the platform to buy some snacks, such as cherries that could be eaten in one bite, and vitamins such as calcium tablets. She put these things in her drawer, which was locked. No one dared to open it, and no one could open it. Even if Qin Fang was there, he would not go through her things on weekdays, so it was safe.
At this moment, Yang Haiyan was looking at cold medicine. She bought western medicine, which came in boxes. She scooped out the pills one by one and put them in her purse. Then she burned the boxes of plastic and paper. Regardless of whether it was environmentally friendly or not, if she didn't burn it, it would be found to be inappropriate, so she had to burn it.
She only bought Western medicine. First, Western medicine is more effective for emergency use. Second, Chinese medicine cold granules or cold liquid are not suitable. Because there is a doctor, he prescribed Chinese medicine. Yang Haiyan read the book before buying cold medicine, and it will not conflict with Chinese medicine.
There was a pungent smell coming from the tent. Although it was not strong, Aunt Lian at the door could smell it. It was the smell of something burning. Aunt Lian stood there calmly.
After a while, Nanny Lian heard the wife's voice: "Nanny, come in."
Aunt Lian opened the curtain and came in: "Madam."
Yang Haiyan said: "Let's go see Meng Qiu."
Because the tents were separated for men and women, even for the whole family, Meng Qiu brought Meng Qiu with her, and lived with Meng An, Kun Zhang, Huang Xu, Aunt Hong, Sister Lu, and Mrs. Yang and her daughter. These were all acquaintances, so it was more appropriate for them to live together.
Bikun Daying was with Kunshi, Hong Shu, Huang Huzi, Mengping, Taoshan, Chen Dashi, Yang Xiaowei and Lu Xiaowei.
In the tent here, Mrs. Meng Qiu was guarding Meng Qiu. Meng Qiu had already drunk the Chinese medicine, but she was still feeling uncomfortable. She looked at Mrs. Meng Qiu with red eyes and said, "Mom, I have a headache."
Meng Qiu placed a handkerchief on her forehead and fed her a steamed bun: "Be good, go to sleep first. When you wake up, your headache will go away."
Meng Qiu sobbed softly, "Mom, I can't sleep. I have a headache and can't sleep."
Meng Qiu's eyes turned red when she heard this, and she couldn't help crying. Her daughter was still so young, and it was a pain for her to be sick. She felt uneasy when she thought about some children dying of colds, and she was really afraid that her daughter would also...
"Are you all in here?" Yang Haiyan opened the curtain and came in, and saw that everyone was inside. The tent here is not like the main tent, and this is just a place to sleep. To be more precise, you sleep here and eat here. Fortunately, everyone eats steamed buns, so there is no peculiar smell.
Seeing Yang Haiyan coming, everyone stood up and said, "The Madam is here."
Yang Haiyan said, "Don't worry about sitting down. Come and see how Qiu'er is doing."
When Mrs. Meng Qiu heard this, she burst into tears: "She has a headache and can't sleep. Madam, what should we do? The doctor said she needs to reduce her fever, but her eyes and forehead are still very hot."
Yang Haiyan patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'm here just for this matter."
Meng Qiu's eyes showed surprise after hearing this: "Madam, do you have any idea? Madam, if you can save Qiu'er, I will work like a slave for you." She was about to kneel down.
Yang Haiyan really admired Meng Qiushi. Was this the right time to do this? She supported Meng Qiushi and said, "Don't worry about these things for now. Qiu'er is more important." She took out two purses from her shoulder bag and poured out nine pills from each purse. "Take one of these square pills for every three meals, and two of these round pills for every three meals. This is enough for three days. Don't worry. If nothing unexpected happens, she will recover slowly in three days. Also, this pill helps with sleep. You can fall asleep right after taking it."
When Mrs. Mengqiu heard this, she immediately asked Mengqiu to feed her medicine. Fortunately, Yang Haiyan had absolute conviction in Mrs. Mengqiu's heart. She believed whatever she said. If it was someone more suspicious, Yang Haiyan would probably have to find an excuse.
Meng Qiu took the medicine, and Yang Haiyan did not leave, just stayed with everyone here. At first, Meng Qiu was still crying out in pain, but gradually there was no sound, and she fell asleep. It was only a quarter of an hour, and the other drugs were not very effective, but it really helped to sleep quickly.
Seeing Meng Qiu fall asleep, Meng Qiu knelt down on the spot and kowtowed three times. Yang Haiyan was helpless because Meng Qiu was very stubborn on this point.
After Meng Qiu got up, Yang Haiyan said to the others inside: "I prepared this pill when I went to the border county. I took it just in case, but it really came in handy. However, the number of pills is limited, and there are many people here, so I hope everyone will keep it secret. Otherwise, if someone gets into trouble, I won't be able to provide it to you." Yang Haiyan said this as a reminder. If everyone spread the news of the pills, then everyone who caught a cold would need a pill, and by the time someone here caught a cold, the pills would have been taken away by others.
In a matter of life and death, everyone is selfish, and of course they only care about themselves. So everyone promised not to tell anyone about this.
Yang Haiyan threatened and used her to warn them, and then left. She couldn't bear to watch people she knew get hurt because of a minor illness like a cold, but she could only help these people she knew. For the others, she could only apologize. Otherwise, if one hundred out of three thousand people caught a cold, she would have to take out thousands of these pills, and even if she could, she wouldn't have an excuse.
Yang Haiyan sighed. She didn't know whether it was right or wrong to take out the pills to help Meng Qiu, but the current excuse was relatively safe. Who would go to the border county to ask about this? She didn't know which doctor had prepared the pills for her. So, she also considered it carefully before helping Meng Qiu.
"Madam, are you annoyed?" Arriving at the main tent, Nanny Lian wiped the water off Yang Haiyan's body with a dry towel.
Yang Haiyan said: "Who wouldn't feel annoyed on such a rainy day? Oh, where are Shoucheng and Siya? I haven't seen them for a long time."
Aunt Lian said, "Let's go play with Big Eagle."
Yang Haiyan didn't have much to say after hearing this. However, "Ask Aunt Fan and Aunt Yu to prepare more ginger tea, three bowls a day, and send them to everyone. Also, ask Kun Shi to take people to buy some ginger and brown sugar. If they go this way, I'm afraid the current ginger and brown sugar will not be enough."
Aunt Lian said, "In this weather, I don't know if there is enough ginger and brown sugar in the county."
Yang Haiyan said: "Even if there is no brown sugar, ginger alone will do. If there is no brown sugar in this county, go to the next county." It would be great if there were Ganmao Ling granules, which can also prevent diseases. Yang Haiyan felt the decadence and powerlessness of the ancient times for the first time, and at the same time, she also had an idea. If she could solve the problem of colds not taking people's lives, then... But she couldn't provide western medicine, and she provided the formula of western medicine. Of course, she didn't know the formula of western medicine, but the ingredients of western medicine were in the book, but it was a big project to translate these ingredients into easy-to-understand words, and she had to pick up all the chemical knowledge.
Moreover, such a prescription appearing out of thin air would also cause trouble.
If she doesn't use Western medicine, but uses traditional Chinese medicine, modern medicine is more advanced than ancient medicine, so she can buy traditional Chinese medicine, and then look for the formula in the product manual, and then spread the formula through reasonable means, or other means.
Of course, this was just her sudden thought.
