Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, the prince led me to rebel

It had been a long time since anyone had asked her what her name was. Du Kang thought for a moment before slowly speaking:

"There's a 'Ming' in my maiden name, so you can call me Aunt Ming."

"Aunt Ming, I'm sorry to bother you and Kong Qing tonight. My brother is seriously ill, so I had no choice but to come to your house."

"Don't bother me, don't bother me. You are Kong Qing's employer. You provide her with food and pay her a high salary every month. You are a favor to our family."

"Aunt Ming, please don't say that. It's a waste of talent for Kong Qing to work for me. I should be thanking her."

"Xiao Ran, please don't say that. The thing I regret least in my life is working for you."

Du Kongqing quickly jumped out to express her feelings. Luo Xiaoran looked at her and smiled, then turned to Luo Xingchen and frowned again.

Even after all the medicinal wine from Du Kongqing's house was used up, Luo Xingchen's body temperature did not go down, which made Luo Xiaoran very worried.

Keep burning, or you'll turn into a fool?!

correct!

Didn’t you buy some medicine for treating typhoid and cold when you fled to Changzhou?

Later on the road, Qiu Niang fell ill and used some of them. There should be one pair left. Where did she put it?

"Kong Qing, Chou Li is tied up in your yard, right?" Luo Xiaoran suddenly asked.

"right!"

Luo Xiaoran rushed to the yard and saw Chou Li in the southeast corner.

He then entered the carriage and successfully found the packet of medicine in the gap between the seat cushion and the carriage wall.

Back in the house, Luo Xiaoran handed the medicine to Du Kongqing: "Do you think this medicine will work?"

Du Kongqing took the medicine and carefully identified it under the candlelight: "Is this medicine for treating colds?"

Luo Xiaoran nodded: "That's right!"

Du Kongqing looked at it for a while and said, "This pack is for an adult. I can use it after I adjust the dosage of each herb."

Luo Xiaoran breathed a sigh of relief, "Then please boil some medicine for Chen'er. I'll continue to wipe his body with cold water and make sure his fever goes down quickly."

Du Kongqing nodded quickly: "Okay, okay, I'll go right away!"

Du Kang looked at Du Kongqing who ran away like a gust of wind and hurriedly called her:

"Qing'er, it's getting late and the dew is heavy, you should put on some clothes!"

"I'm boiling medicine over a fire, it's not cold!"

Du Kang turned his head and looked at Luo Xiaoran with a gentle expression:

"Look at this girl of mine. She never listens to me. I'll go find her some clothes to put on. Miss Luo, please help yourself."

······

After Luo Xiaoran constantly wiping and feeding him a bowl of medicine, Luo Xingchen's temperature finally dropped in the second half of the night.

Early in the morning, the unfortunate child Luo Xingchen woke up to the chirping of sparrows.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Luo Xiaoran, who was leaning on her elbows and guarding the bed.

When Luo Xingchen woke up, Luo Xiaoran woke up almost at the same time. The first thing she did was to touch Luo Xingchen's forehead. It was not hot:

"Chen'er is awake, how do you feel?"

Luo Xiaoran looked at Luo Xingchen staring at her with big eyes, her eyelashes clearly visible, but she didn't say anything. She sighed helplessly:

“Look, sister forgot again, Chen’er doesn’t want to talk yet.

What I mean is, you had a fever last night, your whole body was burning, and I couldn't wake you up even if I called you, but you've taken medicine and your fever has gone down. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere now, please point it out to me."

Luo Xingchen shook his head. Seeing that he was in good spirits, Luo Xiaoran finally felt relieved and poured a glass of water for Luo Xingchen:

"You need to drink some water now, and then have a good breakfast, and you will be healthy and full of energy again."

Luo Xiaoran went to the kitchen to make breakfast. She had been busy until late last night, and Kong Qing and her daughter had been busy all the time, which made Luo Xiaoran feel bad.

After Luo Xingchen's fever subsided, Luo Xiaoran put him in the carriage and took him back home.

For breakfast, I had vegetable noodles and boiled eggs. Luo Xingchen's fever had just subsided, so it would be better to eat something light.

After breakfast, Luo Xiaoran planned to take Luo Xingchen to the county town to see Doctor Zeng from Huichuntang for another checkup.

When it comes to raising children, you still have to be careful.

Before leaving the village, Luo Xiaoran heard someone shouting from behind: "Xiaoran, wait for me!"

Luo Xiaoran stopped the car and looked back. The woman running wildly on the road, who else could it be but Du Kongqing:

"Didn't I give you a day off? Why are you here again?"

Du Kongqing was panting, climbed onto the carriage swiftly, and took the reins from Luo Xiaoran:

"Today is not a day off. I can't be lazy when I get paid so much by you.

When I went to your house just now, the door was locked.

I guess you are just worried about Chen'er. Although his fever has subsided, you will definitely take him to the city to check on him.

So I chased you to the village entrance, and I didn’t expect that I actually caught up with you.”

After saying that, Du Kongqing lifted the car curtain and came face to face with Luo Xingchen, who was lying on the curtain and eavesdropping on their conversation.

Luo Xingchen blinked and said nothing.

Um, he hasn't spoken for several months.

Du Kongqing also blinked and said nothing.

Why does she feel that Chen'er is more lively after he fell ill?

It's an illusion.

After what happened in the past two days, Luo Xiaoran deeply felt the importance of having a doctor in the village:

"Kong Qing, besides your father, are there no other doctors in Hexi Village? Are there no other doctors in other villages?"

Du Kongqing thought about it and said truthfully:

“There are no doctors in Hexi Village and several nearby villages.

First, these villages are close to the county town and the prefectural capital, so if we need to hire a doctor, we can go to the city.”

"But what if it's like ours, an emergency that occurs in the middle of the night, and there's a curfew in the city? Do we have to wait until dawn to go into the city to find a doctor?"

Luo Xiaoran was very puzzled. Some illnesses can be delayed, but some illnesses will be so bad that the cucumber dishes will get cold if you delay treating them overnight.

Du Kongqing shook his head, glanced at Luo Xiaoran, and smiled bitterly:

“This is the second reason I want to talk about. There are wars in the North all year round. Medicinal materials are not in short supply, but they are in short supply, so the price is not low.

Ordinary people simply cannot afford to seek medical treatment, so why would ordinary doctors come to the countryside to practice medicine? "

······

As soon as I walked into Huichun Hall, Doctor Zeng's voice rang out: "Why are you here again?"

After saying this, he stretched his head and looked behind Luo Xiaoran and the others:

"It's not even three days yet, why are you here again? Where's your brother? Is it because my medicine is not suitable for you, or is it..."

Luo Xiaoran felt helpless as she watched Dr. Zeng mutter to himself. She had never expected that he had the potential to be a chatterbox:

"Brother took the medicine you prescribed and feels good.

This time I came for my younger brother. He had an emergency last night. His whole body was burning hot and his limbs were twitching. Although he has no fever now, I still want to ask Dr. Zeng to take a look. "

Doctor Zeng put his hand on Luo Xingchen's wrist and concentrated for a moment:

"Your brother is fine now, but he is still young after all. He was sick last night and is still a little weak. He needs to eat lighter food in the next two days."

Luo Xiaoran nodded to show that she understood.

"Miss Luo! Why are you here?" A familiar voice sounded outside the door.
