Chapter 5609 Pediatrician
When the women were talking about these things, Yang Ruoqing happened to be present.
We can’t blame women for being so strange. In fact, medicine in this era is backward. Diseases like wind-cold are nothing in modern times. It only takes a few days to hang up normal saline and nothing will happen.
But in ancient times, when there were no antibiotics such as penicillin and amoxicillin, relying solely on those herbs to treat the symptoms and root cause was, to be honest, like boiling a frog in warm water.
So many people, especially poor people, have a very low survival rate once they are infected with cold.
Even some scholars with good family backgrounds would die in many cases if they left their hometowns to go to the capital to take exams and were not accustomed to the local environment in a foreign country, even if they had money to buy medicine for treatment.
So it is understandable that everyone is worried about the third girl.
"Don't worry, use the best medicine to treat her, and the three girls will be fine." Yang Ruoqing said to the women.
Yu Bamei and the others nodded one after another: "Yes, use the best medicine to treat it. We are no longer the old Yang family who had to consider buying medicine. If the fourth uncle doesn't have enough money, Yong and I will "I'll definitely join in."
Sun and Bao Suyun naturally had the same idea. What a good girl the third girl is. She is responsible for almost half of the fourth bedroom.
Especially during the more than a year since Mr. Liu was away, the three girls were taking care of all the human relations in the old Yang family. If they were unsure about something, they would take the initiative to come over to discuss ideas with Mr. Sun and Bao Suyun. So Good girl, you guys can't just watch her die of illness.
Yang Ruoqing glanced at everyone. In fact, the 'best medicine' she mentioned was not the most expensive herbal medicine as they understood it.
This time she came back from the capital and brought back many things to make gifts for everyone.
But there was one thing that she got from a Yajili merchant at a high price.
That Yajili businessman should be a very well-connected big businessman in Yajili, and he is related to the capable academic figures in Yajili's upper class society.
For some special reasons, he offended the powerful people in Yajili, so he was exiled and traveled across the ocean to Daqi.
He brought a lot of good things.
The noble ladies in Daqi’s capital city rushed to buy the Western goods from Yajili merchants.
But Yang Ruoqing fell in love with the three tubes of medicine he brought.
In order to buy the three tubes of medicine, she spent a lot of brains and a huge sum of money to buy them.
When the two parties were doing the transaction, she had no one else with her, only Liu Xueyun, a confidant.
She still remembered that Liu Xueyun was holding the box containing three tubes of medicine in both hands, carefully, for fear of bumping into it.
In his own words, the things in this box are more valuable than his life, and his life is far from worth that much money.
But at the same time, Liu Xueyun was also secretly curious about the three tubes of medicine in the box. She didn't know what kind of miraculous medicine could make her calm and rational. She spent a lot of money on it as she was low-key and never extravagant.
Yang Ruoqing never took the initiative to say it, so Liu Xueyun never asked about it. This was a tacit understanding between the two.
"Qing'er, why don't we go to town tomorrow to see the third girl?" Sun suddenly suggested.
Yang Ruoqing thought for a moment and said: "Mom, I can't go tomorrow. I made an appointment with Duo'er two days ago to visit Jiaojiao at her house. The pediatrician from the county still lives in Xiangjiao. Home."
When Sun heard this, he even Lian nodded: "Yes, yes, Jiaojiao should go and check the situation."
Bao Suyun and Yu Bamei also knew that Xiaoduo's daughter was weak and had diarrhea from the twelfth lunar month to the first lunar month. The dealer broke his leg and was not in the mood for the New Year. "Third sister-in-law, why don't we go to the town to see the third girl? You don't want to go. You have a lot of things to do, and you have endless worries." Bao Suyun felt sorry for Mrs. Sun and advised her.
Mrs. Sun sighed: "Yes, I really can't finish worrying about it. Since Qing'er is going to Duo'er's place, I will go there in two days. If I go too much, I won't be able to help. Seeing Jiaojiao I feel distressed again, Duo'er has to comfort me in turn, I'm here for Duo'er To add to the burden, I’d better not go to Xiang’s house. I’ll go to town with you to see the third girl, and give your fourth sister-in-law a few words of comfort.”
The next day, the Sun family and the other women made an appointment. I went to the town to visit a doctor and brought a lot of supplements.
As for Yang Ruoqing, she made an appointment with Xiaohua to go to Xiangjiazhuang together. Xiaoan drove them there and did not let Luo Fengtang and Daan see them off.
As for the reasons, there are two.
Luo Fengtang was sent by Yang Ruoqing to prepare New Year's gifts at home. After the tenth day of the first lunar month, the couple planned to take Luo Baobao to Zuo's family in Huguang County to pay New Year's greetings and spend the New Year with Mrs. Zuo there. Lantern Festival.
Luo Baobao was thinking about his little friend Zuo Jingling and wanted to go there early, so Luo Fengtang stayed at home to pack his things.
As for Da'an, he received an invitation from his classmates in Qing'an County and went to a small gathering.
So, Yang Ruoqing and Xiaohua took Luo Baobao, Feng'er, and Fuwa to Xiang's house.
The pediatrician lives in the guest room of the Xiang family. He was invited by Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang from Wanghai County. Naturally, they know the relationship between the little baby Jiaojiao and the General Protector and his wife, so the diagnosis process is There is no carelessness, even when making medicine, I do it myself.
Of course, the Protector General and his wife did not treat him badly. They gave him fifteen taels of silver before leaving for the doctor, and promised to give him another fifteen taels of silver after the child recovered.
From then on, every other month, the pediatrician would take the initiative to come to Xiangjiazhuang for follow-up consultation with Jiaojiao, and each follow-up consultation was worth five taels of hard-earned money.
In addition, if there is something wrong with children such as Luo Baobao, Feng'er, and Fuwa that the village doctor cannot handle, he will come immediately to see the doctor as long as he sends a message.
The pediatrician is not stupid. Even if he doesn't pay, the general and his wife who protects the country ask him to come for consultation by name. This is also a sign of trust and praise for him.
With the promotion of the National Protector General and his wife, the name of his medical clinic will naturally become more famous, and he will also find a backer for himself.
Besides, there is still money to be paid for medical visits. This medical visit alone costs thirty taels of silver, and follow-up visits will cost five taels of silver every month. Calculating like this, by the end of this year, I will have seven taels of silver on hand. Eighty taels of silver, my God, I can buy a two-story shop with a small backyard on a good street in Wanghai County.
With a two-story shop with a small backyard, my son will be more confident in marrying a wife in the future.
So, when he saw Yang Ruoqing coming to Xiang's house, the pediatrician hurriedly came to her to report on Jiaojiao's situation in the past few days.
Nothing is too small or too small, no word left behind.
Yang Ruoqing squinted her eyes and listened, feeling secretly satisfied. It was obvious that the doctor had really put his thought into this.
"Very good, you are interested." Yang Ruoqing smiled faintly at the doctor and waved her hand.
The pediatrician withdrew knowingly, and only three sisters, Yang Ruoqing, Xiaohua and Xiaoduo, were left in the room.
Yang Ruoqing came to the cradle and looked at Jiaojiao. She was relieved when she saw that the child's cheeks were a little more rosy.
Duo'er looked at the direction the pediatrician was leaving and said to Yang Ruoqing: "Sister, this doctor really has a lot of skills. Since he came to our house, Jiaojiao's condition has improved day by day. Sheng and I The man was so happy that he said this The doctor is a living Bodhisattva."
Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "Jiaojiao will get better day by day. By the way, how is your uncle's leg recovering?"
