After traveling through time, she took her husband to be a food doctor

Chapter 236: Worrying about the future, how to diagnose and treat "bad" patients

The autumn wind blew, and the steps were covered with fallen leaves. Ding Xirui felt refreshed.

"Sister-in-law, let's go too," she said.

"Thank you very much!" Tears finally fell from the lady boss' eyes. She had been struggling alone for so long, almost collapsing. Now someone was speaking for her, and she couldn't believe it for a moment.

"You're welcome. It's our duty to help each other when we see injustice," said Banxia.

"When my hand is healed, I will treat you to the best tea."

"it is good."

Ding Xirui looked at his sister-in-law's hands with admiration and heartache. There seemed to be only two people in the tea shop, and Amu could only do some simple work. How would they eat and run the shop?

"Sister-in-law, is there anyone else at home? Your hands are in this state now, you definitely can't work."

"Well, the shop has to continue to run, and we will do as much business as we can. There are only me and Amu at home. Fortunately, Amu can cook simple meals, so the two of us will not starve to death."

"If you need help, just ask. We are at the Jimin Hall on Third Street."

"Thank you."

"I will come to change your dressing tomorrow morning. Your wound is serious, so please take good care of yourself." Ding Xirui continued.

"Thank you very much. I will give you the money for the medicine tomorrow."

"Don't worry. Can you still afford the compensation for Yue Lao San?"

"We should be able to scrape together some tea leaves if we look for them at home. If not, we can sell some tea leaves to the teahouse. You don't have to worry."

……

The sky was filled with sunset glow. They walked and talked. After sending the proprietress and Amu to the door of the tea shop, Lin Mingxuan and his companions walked back to the clinic.

After putting down his things and taking a short rest, Ding Xirui took Nanxing to the back hall.

"Nanxing, what did you do after arriving at the government office today?"

"I testified."

"and then?"

Nanxing smiled embarrassedly and then lowered her head.

"At the gate of the yamen, I said a few words to Yue Lao San."

"A few words of what kind?"

Nanxing hesitated, lowering his head even lower. His face flushed as he muttered:

"Young Madam...I was wrong."

"It's okay if it happens in the yamen, because you will have to testify sooner or later. But why do you say those things outside the yamen?" Ding Xirui became serious.

"I can't get over this." Nan Xing muttered, "It's clear that those people didn't receive any punishment."

"According to you, you have achieved justice? Then why do you still say you were wrong?"

"I...what I said would make Yue Lao San angry. If we annoy him, he might retaliate against us."

Ding Xirui breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly.

"Nan Xing, I understand that you are angry, and we are just as upset. You are an upright person, and it is good that you are angry. However, since Lord Li has already made the verdict, we can't say anything, at least not in front of Yue Lao San."

"Ah."

Ding Xirui patted his shoulder and continued:

"You also understand that it's best not to offend a villain. He is still a free man and can do something at any time."

"Yes, Madam, I will pay attention to it next time." Nanxing nodded heavily.

"Go ahead."

"Yes."

Ding Xirui raised her head and looked at the sky, but the pressure in her heart was not relieved. Judging from the appearance of Yue Lao San and his men, they would not give up, and she was very worried about this.

The two men in the tea shop were weak and powerless. If the proprietress resisted, she would have to pay a heavy price. Today, she was pushed to such a critical point. It was simply a "suicide" attack. She didn't hurt the enemy much, but she was seriously injured. If she hurt the enemy, she would have to pay compensation. If she encounters problems again in the future, I don't know how she will deal with it. Moreover, there are many gossips around widows, and rumors are very harmful. For example, Arong from the grain store, after hearing the scolding on the street, has already determined that she has bad character. If such dirty words spread, how can her family's shop business... Amu is mentally retarded, and once he goes out, he is more likely to be bullied.

It was easy for something to go wrong in a clinic. The diagnosis and medicine could be caught by others. Pretending to be sick and causing trouble would ruin their reputation. They had experienced this before in Luocheng County. Even if they were not afraid of medical trouble, they couldn't bring it to the government office every day. How could the clinic be open? Besides, they were outsiders...

When he returned home in the evening, Ding Xirui was still thinking about these things, and he spilled a bowl of soup while eating.

"Young Madam, you must not burn yourself." Banxia took the rag and wiped the table.

"Sorry, I was distracted. I will pay more attention next time."

"Who reminds us every day to concentrate when eating?" Lin Mingxuan looked at her and smiled slightly.

"I was wrong, I will change." Ding Xirui shrugged and pursed his lips.

After the table was cleared, Lin Mingxuan brought out the medical book.

"Recently, I've dealt with quite a few bruises, injuries, beatings, and burns... Please tell me about these types of illnesses."

"Well... bruises, smashes, and hits are similar in that they are all caused by collisions between body parts and objects. They may cause internal or external bleeding. Internal bleeding will manifest as redness, swelling, and bruises. You need to promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, and relieve swelling and pain."

"What are the medicinal herbs that have such effects?"

"Panax notoginseng, Salvia miltiorrhiza, frankincense, safflower..."

"Yeah." Lin Mingxuan nodded, then asked, "What about the burns?"

"Burns have different degrees. Like Yue Laosan's, he needs pain relief..." Ding Xirui said, lowering his head.

"what happened?"

"My attention was focused on the boss lady today, and I didn't pay any attention to Yue Lao San and the others. It would have been nice if you had reminded me."

"It's okay. The boss lady's condition is quite serious. It's normal that you can't take care of her." Lin Mingxuan patted her hands.

"Maybe... I don't want to treat them in my heart. Does this mean I am not a good doctor?" Ding Xirui raised his head and asked.

Lin Mingxuan smoothed her hair, thought for a moment, and said:

"I have no way to answer this question. Being sick is being sick, but sick people can be good or bad. When a bad person who has done many evil things gets sick or injured, isn't it God's punishment for him? I sometimes think so. We are doctors, ordinary people. We can feel resentment and make judgments. How can we exclude the factor of character and simply diagnose diseases? Just like yesterday, when Yue Laosan and his partner went to the clinic, I recognized them at a glance and felt unhappy. I know that I should be careful and patient when treating patients, but when facing the two of them, I barely controlled my mood and could only speak coldly. I don't know if this is right, but at the moment I really can't be selfless in my heart."

"I can't do it either." Ding Xirui smiled, "Maybe, we have to think about this problem for a lifetime."

"Don't be afraid, we'll do it together." Lin Mingxuan held her hand.

Ding Xirui breathed a sigh of relief and continued:

"For cases like the boss lady's, where blisters, broken skin, and bleeding have occurred, we need to use drugs that can reduce inflammation, stop bleeding, relieve pain, and promote tissue regeneration. There are many such drugs, including radix sanguisorbae, coptis root, phellodendron, chuanxiong, myrrh, lithospermum officinale, and radix rehmanniae... When making ointments, we also need sesame oil, beeswax, borneol, etc."

"Well, let's go to the clinic tomorrow and try the prescription."

"it is good."
