Yang Mo had just finished eating when he heard Wei Mao knocking on the door, "Master, that Zhu Shan is here."
After Wei Mao finished speaking, a mother-in-law came to help Yang Mo get dressed.
Yang Mo glanced at Zhou Chengling. Zhou Chengling stood up and walked to the window at the back of the house. He stretched out his hand to open the window and jumped out. Jiang Ping, who was waiting outside, heard the sound and hurriedly went around behind. When he saw the master adjusting his robe, Jiang Ping
I just thought it was funny. The master's stature really shouldn't go through the window. Is it possible that a high-ranking person is different from ordinary people even if he has some earthly influence?
Yang Mo let her mother-in-law in and looked sideways at the food on the table. Qiu Tong came in and put the bowls and chopsticks into the food box without saying a word. Only then did Yang Mo realize that Zhou Chengling's pair of chopsticks had been taken away by him.
The mother-in-law saw two empty bowls and said with a smile: "The mother-in-law in the kitchen of our drug store is a good cook, and the food bought outside is easy to eat."
The mother-in-law thought that she had eaten both bowls of rice. Yang Mo was embarrassed to answer the mother-in-law's words and said vaguely, "I'm a little hungry today."
The mother-in-law said: "I'm hungry. I'll ask the servants in the kitchen to learn these dishes tomorrow."
Yang Mo looked at Qiu Tong, who was smiling and didn't know what she was thinking.
Coming out of the house, Wei Mao came over and said, "Zhu Shan is a little strange. Master... you have to be prepared..."
Somewhat strange? Yang Mo didn’t know what Wei Mao was referring to.
The two people walked into the front hall, and Yang Mo immediately heard the sound of discussion.
"Who is this?"
"Miss Yang came here and asked him to help treat the disease."
"This person? No way? How could Miss Yang use him?"
Ji Zizhuan heard these discussions and sat aside with a calm look on his face, but the bearded Zhu Shan disagreed and stood beside Ji Zizhuan and said: "Did Mr. Ji think that my method can be used before he mentioned it to Miss Yang?
"
Ji Zizhuan felt dumbfounded. He originally thought that Miss Yang knew about Zhu Shan, so it was considered a mistake to introduce him to Zhu Shan.
Zhu Shan looked excited, "Mr. Ji, is my method good? I know that Mr. Ji is the only one in Beijing who can understand what I say."
"I have long said that this method is not my imagination. It is recorded in "Compendium of Materia Medica" that none of them are willing to listen to me," Zhu Shan said to Ji Zizhuan with messy hair and foaming at the mouth.
He said, "Haha, I'm just waiting for this day, waiting for someone to believe me. Mr. Ji, you are indeed a genuine surgeon."
He said this as if no one appreciated him. Ji Zizhuan smiled and shook his head, "Don't thank me. I didn't believe you originally. It was Miss Yang, the boss of Baohetang, who heard about you and let me know."
You will be invited over to ask."
Who is Miss Yang? Zhu Shan was stunned. It was a woman who called him here?
Looking at Zhu Shan's confused look, Ji Zizhuan asked, "How long has it been since you went out?"
Zhu Shan thought carefully and couldn't think of a reason. He turned to look at the weather outside and said, "About... a year."
No wonder, even Miss Yang doesn't know about it.
Ji Zizhuan raised his head and saw Yang Mo walking over. He stood up and said, "Zhu Shan, this is Miss Yang."
Zhu Shan turned his head. Not far in front of him stood a petite woman wearing a hat. Most of the joy on his face suddenly disappeared. It turned out that the person who called him was a woman.
"Is this Mr. Zhu?" Yang Mo whispered.
Zhu Shan was stunned for a moment before responding.
Yang Mo said: "I heard that Mr. Zhu can use meat maggots to treat sores and sores."
Zhu Shan nodded, "I can."
"Can you show it to me?"
What are you looking at? Zhu Shan didn't react.
Yang Mo said: "Mr. Zhu still has any meat maggots in his hand that can be used to treat diseases. Can you show them to me?" She would only know after seeing them whether they were the same as the maggots used in modern medical treatment.
This woman wants to see flesh maggots, which is something that scares many men. She has gone to many medical clinics. As long as they hear that it is flesh maggots, everyone will look disgusted and their bodies will naturally avoid it. Even Ji Zi Zhuan is just
After taking one look, he frowned and asked him to put away the maggots.
Now this woman takes the initiative to see those maggots.
It was something that a woman would exclaim when she saw it. She wanted to see it... Did he hear it right?
There was a suspicious look in Zhu Shan's eyes, "Has the eldest lady seen those things?" To be able to prescribe a prescription like Baohetang, it must be that he is being served by someone, and his fingers are not touched by Yang Chun Shui. Not to mention maggots, even small bugs may not have been seen before.
.
Yang Mo said: "I have seen some before. I wonder if Mr. has brought anything here."
Zhu Shan deliberately adjusted his robe, "Of course I brought it with me. I was afraid that the lady would be frightened if I took it out."
No matter how courageous she is, she is still a woman.
Yang Mo smiled and said: "No, sir, just bring it."
Anyway, he had something to say first, and he would not be responsible if he scared anyone. Zhu Shan carefully took out a wooden bucket from his arms, opened the cork, and poured the insects on the cloth.
When the doctors and doctors in the drug store looked over, they saw that the white maggots were no different from what they saw on a daily basis.
Zhu Shan looked at Miss Yang. Miss Yang did not hide away but took a few steps forward to check, "Where did these insects come from?" In this weather, flies are rarely seen, let alone these little white ones.
insect.
This woman is really brave. Zhu Shan said: "Of course I raised them. I raised them with meat and sugar. The house had long been burned with charcoal, but it was all good silver frost charcoal."
Having said this, people around him couldn't help but find it ridiculous that Zhu Shan looked like a beggar and even used silver frost charcoal to feed maggots. No wonder everyone said that Zhu Shan was crazy.
In other words, these maggots are not produced by flies that eat randomly. Artificially cultivated bugs have fewer germs.
Originally, Yang Mo thought there was a 30% to 40% chance that it could be used, but now after Zhu Shan said this, she was 70% sure.
"How many of these bugs are there in your home?"
Miss Yang did not leave, but continued to ask Zhu Shan. Ji Zizhuan next to him became more and more confused. Miss Yang really wanted to use these things?
Zhu Shandao: "There are hundreds of them."
In this case, biological therapy should be enough.
Yang Mo said: "Mr. Zhu, wait for me for a while. I'll be back as soon as I go."
Miss Yang must be scared, so she doesn't dare to say it here.
Zhu Shan couldn't help but sigh and sat down.
As soon as Zhu Shan sat down, someone said: "Hey, Zhu Laosi, what are you wearing? Why do your pants still have patterns on them, as if they were worn by women."
Several people in the room couldn't help laughing when they looked at Zhu Shan's pants.
Zhu Shan blushed and said, "Go, go, I don't believe you, you haven't worn my pants." Now he is living in poverty, and all he has is flies. He heard that Ji Zi Zhuan asked him to come, but he didn't have any pants to wear.
He had no choice but to put the dead woman's arms around his legs. If he had known this was the case, he wouldn't have come.
"Zhu Laosi, you just sold your family property for these bugs? You didn't even get a wife?"
"Aren't you afraid that my mother will crawl out of your ancestral grave and pinch you?"
When Zhu Shan heard someone questioning his insect, he immediately stood up and said, "When one day I use it to cure people, you will all be dumbfounded, and you will be blind to gold and jade."
"Haha." When people outside heard that the crazy Zhu Laosi was coming, they all gathered at the door and laughed.
…
Yang Mo opened the curtain and went to the consulting room inside. Gao Zhengchun was lying on the bed not knowing what he was thinking.
Yang Mo was going to explain the two treatment plans to Gao Zhengchun in detail.
Gao Zhengchun turned his face, trembled his lips and said, "Miss Yang, have you ever seen any candidate who is missing a hand or has no arm?"
I've never seen this Yang Mo before, but there should be some.
Gao Zhengchun said: "If I can't pass the imperial examination, my family will not be able to survive." He has no other abilities and has only been able to study in these years.
"What if there is another way to treat it? No one else has used it, and bad things may happen. But if it works, your hand can be saved. Are you willing to try it?" Yang Mo interrupted Gao Zhengchun.
.
Gao Zhengchun, who had already lost all hope, suddenly brightened up, as if he had found a way out, "Yang...Miss Yang, is there such a way? I am willing to try, I am willing to try."
Many patients have to discontinue treatment because they cannot tolerate maggot therapy.
Yang Mo explained the method of using maggots to remove rot, "If you are afraid, don't force it."
Can maggots be used to cure diseases? It was the first time Gao Zhengchun heard that those bugs eat carrion, wouldn't they eat him whole? Thinking of these, Gao Zhengchun felt numb in his heart, as if there were countless bugs getting in, and he couldn't help but tremble, but
Thinking of his own hand, Gao Zhengchun raised his head and said, "Miss Yang, please treat it for me. I...I'm not afraid."
Yang Mo said: "Maggots only eat carrion. They won't eat any parts that are not bad, and they are kept for a short time. They will be opened and replaced every day. I will clean the bugs and then rinse them with salt water." Yang Mo did his best to complete the steps.
To make it clear, a lot of fear is due to lack of understanding.
"It will hurt a little, but it's much better than using a knife."
Gao Zhengchun nodded as he listened.
Ji Zi Zhuan couldn't help but be surprised. Hearing Miss Yang say this, she seemed to be very clear about this method. She didn't hesitate to use it when she saw those bugs, and she didn't question whether Zhu Shan was a lunatic.
He thought that at least he was very familiar with Miss Yang in terms of medical skills, but what happened today made him feel that there is always something surprising about Miss Yang.
Yang Mo came out, and Zhu Shan stood up, ready to leave after listening to Miss Yang. Anyway, Miss Yang couldn't use his bugs.
"Mr. Zhu, could you please bring all the maggots from home? I have a patient who wants to try this method."
Zhu Shan opened his eyes wide, and there was a sound of air-conditioning sucking around him.
Miss Yang wants to use this method.
Miss Yang believed Crazy Zhu.
"Miss." Ding Er took a step forward and was about to speak, but he saw Miss Yang tilting her head at him, her eyes clear and confident.
…
Qiao Yuechan stayed by Mrs. Qiao's bedside, listening to the news from the steward's mother, "There was a patient treated at Baohe Hall. I heard... I heard that the hand was injured, very seriously. Miss Yang
Okay... what kind of maggots should I use to treat it, live maggots?"

Thanks to the White Lotus followers for translating the original English text, which has helped me gain a lot of knowledge.
Maggottherapy (maggot therapy, no Chinese entry), it is said that the first record of maggot therapy in modern times was a case during Napoleon's expedition to Egypt. During World War I, Dr. Bell systematically implemented maggot therapy as a regular medical treatment.
The original translation on the Internet is: As early as World War I, Dr. William Baer (williams.baer), Napoleon’s military medical director and plastic surgeon, used maggot therapy to treat war wounds. There were similar medical treatment cases before. there are many.
I have blurred the relevant parts of the article. Can any good English translators translate the full text? Otherwise, where will an English novice like me go to find information.
