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

Chapter 322: The grain seller asks for money for medicine, the poor woman has a stomach worm

"Okay..." The old lady nodded, as if she had something else to say. She hesitated and finally spoke it out.

"Doctor, how much medicine should I take? How much does it cost in total?"

"Auntie, your illness has not been completely treated yet. I estimate that you will need to take medicine for ten days."

"Ten days?"

"Yes, you have Yin deficiency. You will need to take another decoction starting tomorrow. The decoction contains donkey-hide gelatin and is more expensive, so you will need to pay some money."

"How much do you want?"

"Including the medicine for the next two days, you only need to pay one hundred coins. We promised the villagers that we would only charge one hundred coins at most."

"Oh, I see..." The old lady smiled slightly and felt a little relieved.

Ding Xirui also smiled, "Your hands and feet were not cold yesterday. Did you get a better rest?"

The old lady nodded, "Yes, I have the energy to get up today."

"If you are sick, you have to treat it. What if something goes wrong if you delay it for too long? Your grandchildren still need your care." Ding Xirui continued. She had talked with Mrs. Li yesterday about the situation of her aunt's family and knew a little about it.

"Yes, both children are naughty." The old lady's expression softened suddenly.

She sat aside to drink the medicine. The young woman, the little girl, and the two slightly older uncles from yesterday all came. Ding Xirui stood on tiptoe and looked at the door. She saw a figure flashing by at the entrance of the alley. It seemed to be Uncle Zhang who had rejected them yesterday. She stepped out of the door and the man disappeared.

A dirty, skinny kid about six or seven years old ran into the alley in a hurry. He was sweating profusely. When he saw Ding Xirui, he stammered and finally said, "Save my mother!"

"What's wrong with your mother?"

"Eat, vomit, vomit bugs." He pulled Ding Xirui and ran out of the alley.

"What? Wait a minute..." Ding Xirui wanted to call Lin Mingxuan, but the child found strength from somewhere and pulled her straight towards the street.

"Mom! Dad!" The child suddenly stopped.

Not far away, a man of medium build came hurriedly carrying a woman on his back.

"Mom!" The child shook off Ding Xirui and ran towards the couple, and Ding Xirui hurriedly followed.

"Dad, doctor!" the child ran to the man and said breathlessly.

"Doctor, my wife is vomiting a lot, and there are... roundworms in the vomit!"

Ding Xirui's stomach reacted instinctively, she gritted her teeth and said.

"Go to the infirmary!"

She supported the woman's back, and several of them quickly ran to the temporary clinic.

"Ah Qing, quickly serve a bowl of tangerine peel soup! Xiao Qiang, boil the Magnolia bark soup and Anqi soup!" Ding Xirui shouted.

"Yes!" After hearing the order, the two hurried into action.

Everyone in the courtyard made way for the man to carry the woman to the front of the hall. Yuan Sanxing and Lin Mingxuan spread out a few bundles of straw to use as mats.

"Doctor, please save my wife." The man said tremblingly. After the woman lay down, she still wanted to vomit, so Ding Xirui asked her to lie on her side to avoid being choked by vomit.

"The orange peel soup is here." Ah Qing brought the medicine bowl over. Ding Xirui helped the woman up and fed her the medicine, but the woman seemed unable to control herself and spilled most of it after taking a sip.

"Open her mouth." Ding Xirui said.

The man was at a loss, not knowing what to do. Lin Mingxuan took the medicine bowl and said, "You come."

Ding Xirui put his hands on the woman's cheeks and exerted force towards the middle, and the woman's mouth opened a little. Ah Qing found a spoon and Lin Mingxuan fed the medicine into her one spoonful at a time with the spoon.

The woman drank the medicine and continued to lie down, still trembling a little. Ding Xirui found a small cushion, covered her with it, and then touched her hands, upper arms, feet and calves.

"Everything is cold, from the hands to the elbows, from the feet to the knees." She said to Lin Mingxuan.

"Ah Qing, take the Shouyang Pill."

No one responded. Ah Qing was frying black plum soup, and Xiao Qiang was adding herbs for Magnolia bark soup. In the kitchen, An Yumo was cutting vegetables, Ban Xia was washing vegetables, and Xiao Qin was making a fire. None of them were free.

"I'll go." Yuan Sansheng said.

He walked to the medicine box and took out two pills swiftly. Lin Mingxuan took out the cotton cloth from the medicine box and handed them to Ding Xirui. The Shouyang Pill was placed in the woman's palm, and the cotton cloth was wrapped tightly. Just as she was about to take a breath, the woman vomited again, and there were indeed worms... A sister-in-law in the yard scooped up a handful of soil to cover it, and Ding Xirui thanked her repeatedly.

"I'll go get another bowl of orange peel soup." Yuan Sansheng trotted over.

"Brother Yuan, don't be anxious." Lin Mingxuan shouted.

"Don't worry, it won't be a big deal." Yuan Sanxing said.

The woman vomited twice, and the Magnolia Bark Soup and Anchu Soup were cooked, and several people fed her again. The woman's body gradually stopped shaking, her face had some color, and her hands and legs were no longer cold.

Ding Xirui let out a long sigh of relief.
