Miss Yang's panicked look startled everyone accompanying her.
Shen Weiyan also came out of the house and saw Miss Yang talking to two maids. He couldn't see Miss Yang's expression clearly through Mi Li, but her voice was lower than usual.
"Do you two still remember the medicine I used when I had acne? How did I get better? Is there a special medicine available at home?"
Acne? Chunhe opened his eyes wide and didn't know what to say. Qiu Tong came to his senses first and shook his head hastily, "It was a prescription prescribed by Mr. Bai. We... don't know... I heard it is for common use. Maybe it’s good, maybe it’s not. The old lady worships in front of the Pox Goddess day and night, and the eldest lady... just... just..."
Yang Mo was immediately discouraged because the Yang family had no secret recipe for treating acne.
Shen Weiyan, who was next to him, understood and looked into the Taoist temple where the patients were gathered. "Miss Yang said, isn't this malaria? Is it acne?"
It's acne, also known as smallpox. Smallpox has been eliminated in modern times, but it broke out in ancient times. At least one out of four people infected would die.
No wonder Dr. Tong looked like an old god. He had already dug a trap waiting for her to jump into.
Even if all the mosquitoes here are eliminated, it can't stop the spread of smallpox. Even if all the artemisia from the Zhou Dynasty is dug up and used, it can't save patients with smallpox. The Taiyuan Hospital will not admit that the people in this village are suffering from smallpox. For smallpox, when she returned to Beijing, it would only be said that her medical skills were poor and delayed the treatment. She believed that Tai Hospital would have a lot of reasons waiting to suppress her.
She was just a little orphan girl, and she didn't expect the dignitaries in the capital to go to great lengths to deal with her.
Yang Mo looked at the imperial doctor next to her. The imperial doctor stood at the door with a wary look on her face, as if she was afraid that she would rush out of the door. Not to mention that she had already had smallpox and would not be infected again. Even if she had not had smallpox, she could not She left the hospital full of patients without asking any questions, and allowed the people in the hospital to ignore their life and death and only gave them mugwort water to drink. What she wanted to be was a doctor, not to use modern knowledge to make a career.
Yang Mo looked at the imperial doctor and said, "There are many patients here but few manpower. Your Excellency should at least send some manpower over to help."
The imperial doctor did not understand what Miss Yang meant for a moment.
Yang Mo said: "Let someone steam and boil cloth towels in case we go into the house to check on the patients. We also need to add two more cauldrons for boiling medicine. We will also clean up a room and prepare all kinds of herbs. Please tell the envoy of the children's hospital that this place Not all of the patients have malaria, please ask the children's hospital to diagnose the symptoms together."
Only now did the imperial doctor realize, "Does Miss Yang want to stay to treat the patients?"
Yang Mo nodded under the imperial doctor's gaze, otherwise why would she come?
The imperial doctor took a breath of cold air, with a look of shame on his face. Miss Yang had already seen that it was smallpox but she still wanted to stay. Thinking of her colleagues who ran away after just one glance from a distance, the imperial doctor couldn't help but lower his head. He had said to Yang before The prejudice against the eldest lady is also much smaller. Miss Yang is not chasing fame and fortune through the Yang family's secret recipe.
"I'll let someone make the arrangements." The imperial doctor no longer looked arrogant.
Yang Mo took out a soft towel from the medicine box and covered her mouth and nose, then took off the power cover on her head to prevent an extra layer of gauze from blocking her sight.
Shen Weiyan also covered his face with a soft scarf, obviously intending to follow Yang Mo into the house.
Yang Mo looked at Shen Weiyan, "Mr. Shen, stay and ask people to clean out the room next to them. I will go in to identify whether there are malaria patients and treat them separately," he said, instructing Qiu Tong, Chun He , "You also stay outside and help."
The eldest lady wanted to enter the house by herself. Qiu Tong shook his head and said, "Let the slave and the young lady go in."
There were countless patients with smallpox in the room. Ordinary people could easily get infected if they went in like this. Yang Mo frowned and looked at the two girls, "You and Dr. Shen go get the medicine and do as I say, otherwise not only If you can’t help, you will cause more trouble.”
This was the first time that the eldest lady spoke with a straight face like this. The two girls did not dare to speak anymore and could only watch Yang Mo walking into the inner room to see the patient.
Qiu Tong stamped her feet, "Even if the eldest lady wants to kick me out, I can't just watch here."
Shen Weiyan put down the medicine box on his shoulder, "I...I...go in. I can help if I go in. You will have to wait on the eldest lady for a while."
Shen Weiyan said and walked forward.
…
Yang Mo looked at the patients on the ground carefully. There were obvious red rashes on their foreheads and faces with high fever. Yang Mo looked at them one by one and counted them carefully. Suddenly, a hand grabbed her skirt, and a pair of bloodshot and chaotic eyes appeared. He stared at her with his eyes tightly, "Save my child, save my child."
The woman used her hands to open the hem of her clothes, and Yang Mo saw the baby, who was more than a month old, lying there motionless. Yang Mo's heart sank, and she stepped forward to hold the baby.
"Baby, don't cry, don't cry." The woman murmured. The child in her arms did not cry, but curled up and opened her small hands slightly.
The child closed his eyes tightly and had no breath. Yang Mo couldn't help but feel sour in her heart. Such a big child couldn't bear the invasion of the smallpox virus.
"He fell asleep after eating enough," the woman said, stretching out her hand to pat the child. Yang Mo naturally dodged and stood up, "You take good care of yourself, how about I send the child to your family outside?" "
When the woman heard that the child was to be sent away, she struggled hard and stood up to grab the child from Yang Mo's hand. However, the patient beside her stretched out a trembling hand to hold him, "Let her take it away." , do you want your child to die here with us?"
The woman finally calmed down, stared at Yang Mo, and nodded fiercely for a while, "I want his father to raise him, no matter what, my man is Ding Pingsi from the east of the village."
The patient next to him sighed, "Don't worry, you are young, you will definitely be able to survive, and your family will be reunited in a few days."
Yang Mo listened to the comforting voice coming from behind, and couldn't help but shed tears on the child's face.
If this continues, more and more people will die of the disease, but she can't think of a good treatment. Before Yang Mo can leave the house, someone has already opened the curtain and walked in. Yang Mo lowered his head to wipe his tears and saw a pair of men's fast boots. .
It was Shen Weiyan who came in to help.
She knew she couldn't persuade her, so she stretched out her hand to send the child in her arms, lowering her voice, "Go and tell the Ding family in the east of the village that the child has..."
The person in front of him didn't extend his hand, so Yang Mo raised her head, and unexpectedly met a pair of clear but cold eyes. The beard on her face had been glued back on, and she had returned to her mediocre appearance.
It's Liu Chengling.
Why is Liu Chengling here?
Liu Chengling glanced behind him. The man behind him immediately wanted to take the child from Yang Mo's hand. Yang Mo did not let go. She trusted Shen Weiyan in her heart, so she sent the child over for Shen Weiyan to take a look. And you can't just give it to others at will.
Yang Mo went out and handed the child to Shen Weiyan. Shen Weiyan looked at the child carefully and shook his head at Yang Mo.
After putting the child in the basket and sending it out, Yang Mo turned to look at Liu Chengling. His eyes were clear, somewhat arrogant, and his expression was like a towering mountain peak, as if he could be suppressed at any time, "How could Young Master Liu come here? "
"Transporting medicinal materials," Liu Chengling said calmly, "Fresh Artemisia annua and various herbs."
It turned out to be business.
"I heard from Tai Hospital that only this village has the worst epidemic situation. Tai Hospital is short of manpower and asked us to stay and help. Among my entourage, there happen to be people who have suffered from smallpox and are not afraid of getting sick. Miss Yang can give them orders if you have anything."
Liu Chengling knew that those patients had smallpox.
Yang Mo raised his head and looked over. A cloud floated over, covering the sun. The look in his eyes seemed to be like the silent night. "I also have some knowledge of medical skills. The herbal medicine that the imperial doctor asked for just now is commonly used to treat smallpox." unilateral."
This Liu Chengling can see through her thoughts. This person is difficult to figure out. Now he appears here again, saying that he is a businessman, but he stays to help. He is obviously an old acquaintance of Yan Ge, but he can also be in Feng Dangdui. He can come and go freely, and it is not impossible for a businessman to be so comprehensive, but he does not have the copper smell of a businessman.
Yang Mo thought for a moment and immediately came to her senses when she heard the moans of the patients in the room. Someone came to help, which would be an extra pair of hands and feet. Otherwise, she was the only one who was not afraid of smallpox, and she didn't know when she would be able to separate the patients in the room.
Yang Mo bowed slightly to Liu Chengling, "Then please ask Young Master Liu for help."
While they were talking, several people re-entered the room. Yang Mo treated the patients one by one, and Liu Chengling asked his followers to move those suffering from malaria out of the room.
He quickly cleaned up the patients from beginning to end, and Yang Mo also found the two children of the Wu family in the corner.
The two children were holding hands and huddled in the corner, their bodies as hot as red-hot coals.
"Ice water, see if there is any ice water left."
As soon as Yang Mo finished speaking, Liu Chengling shouted, "Jiang Ping went to the big house in the village to see if there was any ice."
The attendant next to him responded and took a few steps out of the room.
"These two babies have been burning for two days and cannot be saved." The patients nearby looked at the two Wu children. "Yesterday they were clamoring for their mother, but today they haven't said a word."
The two children, only three or four years old, were brought here to fend for themselves by people from the Tai Hospital.
Yang Mo suddenly felt a surge of anger welling up in his heart. He stepped forward to pick up the smaller girl, took the medicine bowl from Liu Chengling's entourage, and fed the little girl a spoonful.
But the little girl's lips and tongue were tightly closed, and the medicine dripped from the corners of her mouth.
There were sighs all around, and some people choked with fear, as if they knew that they would end up like this in the future.
What to do? Yang Mo kept thinking, smallpox cannot be cured in modern times, what else can she do here? She is not even as good as Shen Weiyan, who can still prescribe a single prescription to try.
The safe use of vaccines has made smallpox extinct, so no one is developing specific drugs anymore. However, she cannot limit herself to the known range and will only use the drugs that have been developed. She must make good use of her knowledge...
Liu Chengling lowered his head. The clear eyes of Miss Yang in front of him were covered with a layer of darkness, and the sparkling look in the Yan family was gone. When he thought that the light was about to take advantage of the opportunity, it was like a spark blown by the wind, and a cluster of stars suddenly burst out. The flame burned slowly, as if it would never go out.
