Zhou Man and Bai Shan were lying side by side on the bed, and they touched Zhou Man's belly. Although they found nothing now, they also thought about the prenatal care that they would need to do when their child was older.
Zhou Man thought she couldn't sleep because she was pregnant, but after resting her head on the pillow, she fell asleep after saying a few words to Bai Shan.
Bai Shan was left alone, full of energy and unable to sleep.
He raised his head and looked at her, and when he saw that her breathing was slowly becoming slower and longer, he knew that she was asleep.
Bai Shan reached out and touched her forehead and hair. Feeling that she was sweating a little, he took the cattail leaf fan and gently fanned her.
Zhou Man fell into a deeper sleep, turned over and faced Bai Shan, getting closer to the source of the wind.
Bai Shan tidied her hair and gently fanned the cattail leaf...
Bai Shan stayed up almost all night. He didn't know why he couldn't sleep. Anyway, he kept fanning Zhou Man. Maybe he felt cold in the middle of the night, so he woke up again and covered her belly. He woke up and went to sleep again, and then slept and woke up again.
It was so repeated that although he was energetic at night, he felt a little sleepy in the morning.
However, he didn't stay in bed. After getting up, he went to do a set of boxing. After the exercise, he was sweating all over and his energy improved.
Zhou Man slept well last night and was in good spirits today, so he did a set of body-building exercises as usual and then went to have breakfast. After eating, he took the cakes to the medical department, but later today he
Follow the two of them.
Zhou Man couldn't help but stop, turned around and said to Bai Shan: "It's okay for Daji to follow, why do you want to send me off too?"
Bai Shan: "It's good to take a walk after dinner to digest food."
"You don't want to go to the office?"
"It's still early, and the hospital is not far away. I can send you off and come back in time." Bai Shan urged her, "Let's go and see if there are many patients today."
There were not many patients who came to the Medical Office for treatment today, but there was one more person who asked for accommodation at the Medical Office. As soon as Wen Tiandong saw Zhou Man, he stopped her and said: "There is a patient who has been coughing for a long time. It seems to be tuberculosis.
Sir, this patient asked me to see him, but you’d better not go.”
Zhou Man's eyes were slightly bright, and he had tuberculosis. She had never treated a patient with this disease before. She asked, "Where have you arranged it?"
"In the most remote corner of the backyard, more people live there."
Zhou Man raised his feet and headed over there. Wen Tiandong stopped talking and couldn't help but look at Bai Shan.
Bai Shan did not stop her, but just warned: "Be careful, your medical office has masks, right?"
"Don't worry, since the smallpox outbreak occurred in Xiazhou, medical offices in various places have all the tools needed to fight the epidemic."
Bai Shan did not go in, but nodded and said, "I will bring you food at noon."
Zhou Man waved his hand and told him to go back to the county office and go about his business.
She first went to the pharmacy and put on a mask and gloves, and then she and Wen Tiandong went to see the patients.
Wen Tiandong also put on something and introduced to her: "He is a thirty-eight-year-old man named Sun. He is thin and has been coughing intermittently for three years. Recently, he has been coughing up blood slightly."
That's why he thought it was tuberculosis, but he had seen few illnesses and had never seen such a patient, so he wasn't sure.
Zhou Man: "Who sent it?"
"His wife and children."
Three people delivered it on a cart. Because their home was far away, they walked for two days on the road to get there.
There was a rain yesterday. Although they escaped in time, the three of them were all a little embarrassed at this time. When they saw Master Wen bringing a woman with extraordinary temperament, even though the other person's face was covered, they still stood up from the ground.
, standing a little awkwardly.
Zhou Man nodded to them, opened the door and went in to see the patient.
This was also a ward, with four small beds as before. At this time, there was only one bed with a person lying on it. Apparently his family knew that the disease was contagious, so they deliberately avoided it.
But because the doctor was here, the family of three followed him into the house.
Zhou Man did not let them get close, but walked to the bedside to see the patient.
The patient had fallen asleep, but when he heard the noise, he woke up and immediately got up to get out of bed.
Zhou Man didn't stop him, but he just saw him standing up, looked at his figure, nodded slightly, and asked him to lie back down.
Wen Tiandong brought a pulse pillow and placed it under the patient's hands. He then moved a chair for Zhou Man to sit on. He and his family of four introduced: "This is Mr. Zhou, the director of our medical department."
When the four of them heard this, they immediately became excited. They were here for Zhou Man. Before they came, they had often heard people talking about Zhou Man, saying that she was an imperial physician and a miracle doctor in the capital, and she could treat the emperor and empress.
The four people looked at her with piercing eyes, and even the heartbroken patient couldn't help but ask, "Sir, can my disease be cured?"
Zhou Man withdrew his hand, asked him carefully about the process of his illness and his situation in the past few years, then shook his head and said: "It's not easy to cure, but we will try our best."
The four of them were a little disappointed when they heard it, but they were also somewhat hopeful amidst their disappointment.
Zhou Man stood up and left. Wen Tiandong had already diagnosed him before, so he stopped checking his pulse and left directly with Zhou Man.
Avoiding the Sun family, Zhou Man said: "It's consumption."
Wen Tiandong couldn't help but sigh and asked: "What kind of soup recipe should I use?"
Zhou Man thought for a while and then said: "Don't we have Panax notoginseng to replenish deficiency and nourish energy, treat tuberculosis and kill insects? We can use it with Asparagus, Ophiopogon japonicus, Rehmannia glutinosa and Fritillaria fritillary..."
She discussed the prescription with Wen Tiandong, and after deciding on the prescription, she prescribed it, "Will their family members stay here to take care of the patients? Will it cost much?"
The situation of the Sun family was better, but they were still downgraded. After discussion, they decided to leave their daughter to take care of the sick, while the young man went home with his mother. The autumn harvest was about to begin, and there was still a lot of work to be done in the fields.
Zhou Man then asked Xiao Kou to send the girl a set of protective medical supplies, "You can't go wrong if you are more careful. Let her go in and out of the room to protect herself."
Xiao Kou agreed, still a little worried, "Sir, do they also eat in the kitchen?"
Seeing her worries, Zhou Man smiled and said: "Prepare a pair of bowls and chopsticks for him to use alone, and then add a pair of serving bowls and chopsticks for him. It doesn't have to be so complicated."
It was arranged that the patient would not go to the front yard to see other people who came to seek medical treatment until the end of the week.
Now that the Medical Department has become more famous, some sick people in the city will come here to seek medical treatment, especially those from poor families, and they don't mind having to queue for a long time to get to them.
Fortunately, most people's illnesses are minor, and it doesn't take long to just get a prescription and take the medicine.
Zhou Man finished reading it before noon. She had nothing to do, so she took out a medical book and read it.
Wen Tiandong knew that Zhou Man would read medical books in her free time at the medical office, so he didn't bother her. He also found a place to take out yesterday's prescription and pulse analysis and start studying.
When Mingda and Bai Erlang arrived, it was a rare quiet time in the medical office. The yard was deserted, with only a few cicadas occasionally coming from the trees. It seemed like there was no one there.
It was rare to see such a quiet medical office. Mingda went to look for Zhou Man out of curiosity and saw her leaning on a recliner in the corridor, holding a book in her hand and Xi Cake standing aside with a big fan.
