Chapter 457 Clever Use of Imperata Cylindrica to Reduce Fever
As a mother, Sun Shangxiang felt relieved when she heard that Liu Yao and Liu Yan were both uncomfortable. She touched Da Ni'er and Jia Ye's foreheads and, seeing that they were alright, breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mom, I'm thirsty," Liu Yan repeated.
"Oh, oh~ Mother is giving you water to drink." Zheng Xiuzhen hurriedly picked up the water gourd, opened the cork, and was about to feed Liu Yan when Zhao Lian stopped her.
"No, he can't drink cold water in his current condition. We need to heat the water and make sure he drinks warm water."
This water is rainwater, which needs to be disinfected at high temperatures. In addition, Liu Yan is currently feeling unwell and his resistance is low.
Sun Shangxiang hurriedly boiled water, and after heating it, she made Liu Yan drink more water. At the same time, she also asked Jiang Si to try to feed Liu Yao water.
In addition, Zhao Lian soaked a cloth in hot water and applied it to Liu Yao and Liu Yan's foreheads.
Seeing that Liu Yao was listless and didn't even want to open her eyes, Jiang Si was so anxious that she was about to cry: "Mother, what should we do?"
Yan Guihua was at a loss, slapping her thigh helplessly: "Oh dear~ there's no doctor here right now, what are we going to do? If only we could find some fever reducer, but where are we going to find it in the middle of the night?"
Suddenly, Zhao Lian had a flash of inspiration. She seemed to remember that there were quite a few yellow grasses at the entrance of the cave. These yellow grasses had the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, promoting urination, and also had a certain effect on reducing fever.
Without delay, Zhao Lian quickly moved the large rock. It was still raining outside, but not as heavily as before.
Zhao Di asked with a worried look, "Zhao Lian, where do you think you're going so late at night?"
Zhao Lian put on her raincoat: "I'll go dig up some grass roots by the door and boil some water for them to drink!"
“Zhao Lian, I’ll go with you.” Liu Tongzhu stood up.
"Okay, let's hurry up, the two of us!"
Liu Tongzhu quickly put on a straw raincoat as well.
Stepping out of the cave, it was pitch black outside, and a light drizzle was falling from the sky.
Through the faint light inside the cave, one could vaguely see the yellow thatch by the entrance.
Huo Lian picked up a knife and cut off the leaves of the yellow spear grass, then dug up the roots.
Liu Tongzhu had assumed Zhao Lian was digging up some kind of medicinal herb, but it turned out to be just a common weed. He looked puzzled and asked, "Zhao Lian, isn't this just a common weed? What's the use of digging this up?"
Zhao Lian didn't even look up: "Whether it works or not, we'll only know after we try. There's no other way right now, so we have to give it a try. Third Uncle, if you trust me, don't ask any more questions. Let's hurry up and dig!"
Actually, she had never tried using Huang Yu Shui to reduce fever before; this was her first time using it. She just remembered her grandfather saying that this herb did have such effects.
"Third Uncle believes you!"
Liu Tongzhu didn't ask any more questions; he trusted Zhao Lian.
There must be some basis for knowing that Zhaolian is there, otherwise they wouldn't have dug up this herb for no reason.
Not long after, Liu Yinzhu also came out and took the grass roots they had dug up to wash.
It rained really hard just now, and there was a low-lying area in front of the cave entrance that formed a small ditch, which was a good place to wash.
"Alright, let's stop digging here. If it works, we can dig some more tomorrow."
Feeling that she had dug enough, Zhaolian stopped.
It's really inconvenient to dig at this late at night, and I don't even know how effective it will be.
If it works, it's not too late to dig again tomorrow.
Applying a wet compress to their foreheads had a certain effect in reducing their fever, and Liu Yao and Liu Yan's body temperatures dropped a little.
In less than half an hour, the water was ready, and Zheng Xiuzhen and Jiang Si fed it to the two of them.
Now that everything that needed to be done had been done, all that was left was to wait. After finishing all this, Zhao Lian breathed a sigh of relief and did not forget to give Zheng Xiuzhen and Jiang Si some instructions.
"Second Aunt, Third Aunt, you two keep an eye on them and see if they're sweating. If they are, remember to wipe them dry as soon as possible."
Zheng Xiuzhen nodded: "Okay, I understand. You must be exhausted. Take a rest."
Not long after everyone sat down, they started to fall asleep again.
Zheng Xiuzhen and Jiang dared not be careless at all. Although they were also sleepy, they dared not sleep too soundly. They dozed off with their eyes closed, and then woke up with a start after a while. They would touch the children's foreheads from time to time and feed them water.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Si was pleasantly surprised to find that Liu Yao had started to sweat, and her body was no longer as hot as before. Remembering what Zhao Lian had said, Jiang Si quickly wiped Liu Yao's sweat.
Jiang Si was extremely excited; it seemed the medicine was indeed effective.
Jiang Si turned to look at Zheng Xiuzhen and found that Zheng Xiuzhen was dozing off and sleeping soundly, so she quickly nudged her with her elbow.
"Second sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, our Yao Yao's fever has started to subside. Do you see if your Liu Yan is feeling any better?"
"Ah~ah~"
Zheng Xiuzhen was still sleepy and didn't react immediately when she opened her eyes.
Jiang Si reminded her again, "Our Yao Yao's fever has started to subside. Quickly check on Liu Yan to see if his fever has gone down."
Zheng Xiuzhen only realized what was happening at this moment. She quickly touched her son's forehead and her eyes immediately lit up. Her son's forehead was indeed much cooler and there were small beads of sweat.
Zheng Xiuzhen couldn't contain her excitement: "Our Liu Yan's fever has also started to subside."
Since the medicine was effective, Zheng Xiuzhen and Jiang Si made them drink the rest of the medicine.
"Yaoyao, how are you feeling now?"
Liu Yao opened her eyes and smiled weakly: "Mother, I don't feel so bad anymore. I was burning up just now."
"That's good, that's good!" Jiang Si nodded excitedly, tears streaming down her face.
"Mom, don't cry, I'm alright." Liu Yao raised her sleeve and sensibly wiped away the tears from Jiang Si's eyes.
The next morning, Liu Yan and Liu Yao's fevers completely subsided. Fearing a relapse, Zheng Xiuzhen asked Liu Yinzhu and the others to dig up some more Imperata cylindrica roots and boil them into a decoction for them to drink.
The rain was still falling without stopping, but thankfully it was just a light drizzle.
But this can't go on forever; we have to go out and find something to eat.
Zhao Lian suggested going out to find something to eat, and Liu Jinzhu and the others also said they wanted to go.
"How about this, Uncle, Second Uncle, let's go out together and split up," Zhao Lian suggested a rough plan.
"it is good!"
"Sister, I'll go with you!" Zhao Di said as they prepared to leave.
"Okay, let's go out together."
Several people put on raincoats, went out of the cave, and began to search around.
I have to say, yesterday's heavy rain was really destructive; small trees were lying everywhere, lying in disarray.
However, because it rained for a day and a night, the soil was soaked with water, and the grass that looked dry and withered yesterday seemed to have come back to life overnight, with tender leaves sprouting out.
Along the way, she found some edible wild vegetables, and Zhaolian picked the tender ones. Now that it's raining, she won't have to worry about not having anything to eat.
