Chapter 30 Doctor Ming

Today happens to be the Bon Festival, and ladies and ladies from all provinces are going to temples to offer lotus lanterns and eat vegetarian food, so there are a lot of horse-drawn carriages on the streets.

As soon as the carriage reached the intersection of Qingliang Street, it was blocked. Mingruo lifted the curtain and looked outside, not wanting to waste time: "I'll get off here."

Mingruo still pretended to be a young man and got off the carriage neatly. Zisu hurriedly wanted to follow, but Mingruo said to her: "Send the toilet water to Fuxiangzhai first, and then come to the medicine hall to find me."

"I'd better accompany you to the medicine hall first, and then go to the Fragrance House." Since the last time she met the weird man in black, Zisu didn't dare to let the princess go alone.

"No need." Mingruo walked calmly to the medicine hall.

Although Zi Su did not dare to disobey the order and follow her, she still watched the princess enter the medicine hall before getting on the carriage and heading to Fu Xiang Zhai.

As soon as Mingruo walked into the medicine hall, he found that the place had changed a lot. The medicine hall that was originally empty now had people in twos and threes coming to buy medicine.

"Master, you are here." Old Shen wore a dark gray straight jacket today, his hair was neatly combed, and he finally looked like a doctor.

"Well, how is business lately?" Mingruo sat behind the consultation table prepared for her.

"The children's antipyretic powder and pills for treating colds and coughs sent by the master are selling very well." Old Shen looked happy, "There are also more people coming to the medicine hall to get medicine."

"Today I brought some pills that nourish the stomach, strengthen the spleen and treat indigestion in children." Ming Ruo straightened the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk.

"Are the medicines for children still sweet?" It is most difficult to give medicines to children when they are sick, but he is a really capable master. The medicine he makes is not only effective, but also sweet. Even if it is more expensive, many people are willing to buy it.

"Yes." Mingruo nodded, "Are there any patients with appointments today?"

"Yes, one is the legitimate son of General Yingwu, and the other is Mr. Zhu's wife." Old Shen whispered in Mingruo's ear. Mr. Zhu's family is very rich. He has married more than a dozen concubines and has no heirs...

"

Mingruo suddenly felt that his apprentice was still very smart, and emphasized that Mr. Zhu's family was rich and this information was very important: "Well... at our age, what should I call you?"

"You can call me Shen Cong, or you can call me apprentice..." Old Shen rubbed his hands, "We have to go by seniority, it has nothing to do with age."

"I'm here to treat people, and then I'm telling you - apprentice, get the prescription and get the medicine..."

"I'll just grab the medicine quickly." Old Shen said matter-of-factly.

"Have you considered the patient's feelings?" Mingruo rolled his eyes, probably the patient thought both of them were sick.

"Uh..." Old Shen felt that he was about to be abandoned by his master. Today he specially changed into new clothes, tied his hair seriously, and even shaved off his beard, just to make himself look younger and not let the master

Disgusted. It seems that it still doesn’t work.

Mingruo saw Old Shen looking like he was mourning for his heir, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "I'll call you Old Shen from now on, okay, that's it."

"Okay, okay." Old Shen nodded happily and looked up, "Master, Mrs. Zhu is here."

Ming Ruo straightened her sleeves and sat upright. She saw Mrs. Zhu, who was dressed in luxurious clothes and looked to be in her thirties.

Mrs. Zhu was a little surprised when she saw the young master sitting behind the consulting table. At first glance, this handsome young master seemed to be young and could study medicine for several years.

"Doctor Shen, is this young master your master?" If Dr. Shen hadn't cured her sick mother, she would have left directly.

"Exactly." Shen Cong saw Mrs. Zhu's unkind expression and said quickly, "Mrs. Zhu, as the saying goes, 'A person cannot be judged by his appearance, and the sea water cannot be measured.' Since my master can be my master, it is naturally because of his high medical skills."

"Madam, since you're here, why don't you take a pulse and see if what I'm saying is right?" Mingruo's warm smile made people unable to bear to refuse.

Mrs. Zhu sat down and put her wrist on the pulse pillow. Mingruo picked up the silk handkerchief on the side and put it on Mrs. Zhu's wrist and began to diagnose her pulse. Since she was looking for infertility, Mingruo activated the medical system and gave her a systematic treatment. Check. There is nothing wrong with Mrs. Zhu's body and she should be able to get pregnant normally.

However, there are still some minor health problems: "Mrs. Zhu, do you feel a bitter taste in your mouth in the morning, dry eyes during the day, and trouble sleeping at night?"

Mrs. Zhu was stunned for a moment and nodded: "Are these symptoms related to my years of infertility?"

"Some." Mingruo nodded, "Because Madam has no heirs, she may worry too much all the time, which will lead to stagnation of liver qi, and she will gradually develop these symptoms."

"Then I'm infertile..." Mrs. Zhu looked worried.

"In addition to the wife, there are many concubines in the house, right?" Mingruo continued, "It may be infertile that the wife has no children, but it is too coincidental that all the concubines in the house are infertile. Bar?"

"Ah! What do you mean..." Mrs. Zhu's heart was full of turmoil. In this era when husbands are so powerful, that may be something she has never thought of.

"I suggest you ask Mr. Zhu to come over." Mingruo picked up a pen and wrote a prescription, "This is a prescription for treating Madam's liver qi stagnation."

"Thank you... thank you..." Mrs. Zhu couldn't accept this fact for a while.

At this time, a lady wearing a lake-blue butterfly dress and a floral waist-length satin skirt walked in with a child in her arms, followed by two maids and a nanny. The weather was very hot now, but the child in the lady's arms was wrapped in a thin cloak. He was wearing a hood, and his head was covered with a hood, as if he was afraid of being seen.

The lady didn't show any distrust because of Ming Ruo's youth, perhaps because she had been disappointed too many times and didn't have much hope in her eyes.

Mingruo checked the child's pulse and actually saw subcutaneous bleeding on the child's wrist, so he probably made a judgment. After examination by the medical system, it was consistent with Mingruo's guess.

"Is Mr. Ling's legs bent and deformed?" Ming Ruo felt a little distressed when she saw the child covered by a cloak.

"Yes." The woman raised her head, with a glimmer of light in her eyes, "My Qi'er is not evil, he is just sick, right?"

"Yes." Mingruo nodded seriously.

The woman grabbed Mingruo's sleeve and said, "Doctor, please, please save my Qi'er."

"Madam must have gone somewhere during her pregnancy. The environment there was not good and there were no fresh vegetables and fruits, right?"

"Yes." The woman nodded repeatedly. I didn't know I was pregnant at the time, so I followed my husband to station at the border. It's bitterly cold there all year round. Not to mention fruits and vegetables, even weeds are rare."

"Master Ling's illness has been delayed for too long and needs to be treated slowly." This child actually suffers from vitamin C deficiency. With the abundance of modern supplies and vitamin supplements, very few people have this disease anymore.

"Can my Qi'er be cured like other children?" The woman hugged the child tightly in her arms.
