Chapter 863: Rescue
Xu Waner has been ill for two years and has not gotten out of bed for two years. She is already terminally ill. The best doctors in Ningfeng City have concluded that she is incurable.
Her face was extremely pale, as white as snow, her lips were also white, and even her fingernails were white. She looked so weak that I felt pity for her. Xia Zihan looked at her with pity.
Xu Wan'er's original expression of despair and sadness, after hearing Xia Zihan's words, was like a person who had been thirsty for hundreds of years and suddenly saw the source of water, with a look of hope in her eyes, "Miracle Doctor Bai? Was it that year in Doctor Bai who helped General Chu fight off the Japanese pirates in Ningwucheng? ”
Ningfeng City and Ningwucheng are very close to each other. The common people knew that Bai Shenyi, the Second Prince, Chu Xuanyu, Chu Jingqi and Ao Tianchen fought off the Japanese pirates in Ningwucheng and regained the lost land of Dasheng. His reputation spread all over the country with the Chu family and his sons, especially the people in several big cities close to Ningwu City, who worshiped Divine Doctor Bai very much.
The Xu family was very grateful to Doctor Bai and the Chu family. Mr. Xu always said that if the Chu family, father and son and Doctor Bai had come a month later, maybe the Japanese pirates would turn to Ningfeng after they destroyed Ningwu City. city.
Therefore, the Chu family father and son and Doctor Bai are great benefactors to the hundreds of thousands of people in Ningfeng City.
Mr. Xu would talk about this to Xu Waner and his sister several times almost every month. Later, Xu Waner fell ill, so Mr. Xu stopped talking about it to her.
"Well, he is my master." Xia Zihan smiled and sat down on the chair next to the bed.
"Really?"
Xu Waner's face was excited, and her eyes lit up a little.
However, her face soon became distorted, as if she was in pain somewhere, and it was so painful that cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
The pain lasted only a few seconds.
After the pain, Xu Waner's spirit was dying again. She lowered her eyes slightly and said in despair, "My illness is no longer curable. The doctor has told my father to prepare for his funeral."
Although she is young, she is not afraid of death. She is just reluctant to let go of her parents and brother who have gone bankrupt to cure her disease.
Because of her illness, her brother's marriage was also delayed, and he still hasn't married yet.
It was her who was a drag on the family.
She was the one who harmed her brother.
Xu Waner's eyes turned red when she thought about this, but there were no tears. Her tears seemed to have dried up long ago.
Xia Zihan took her hand that was outside the quilt and said, "I'll check your pulse first to see if we can save you."
How good can the medical skills of the doctors in this small town be?
If Xu Waner was really seriously ill and couldn't be cured, she would have died long ago, and she couldn't delay it for two years.
Xia Zihan felt her pulse carefully.
Her pulse was very weak, so weak that she could hardly feel it. After nearly half a cup of tea, Xia Zihan let go of her hand and put her hand into the quilt.
Xia Zihan asked her, "Miss Xu, are your monthly menstruation inaccurate?"
Hearing this, Xu Waner's originally pale face suddenly turned red. She seemed embarrassed, shy and uncomfortable, and she even said excitedly, "It's not that it's not accurate, it's that it's not clean at all."
A flash of understanding flashed in Xia Zihan's eyes, and she continued to ask, "Have you told other doctors about this reason before?"
"How can you say that?" The previous doctors were all men. How could she, a lady from a wealthy family, have the nerve to say this to a man.
If she had told her, even if her illness was cured, she would have no way of living, and it would also bring disgrace to the faces of the Xu family's ancestors, and the Xu family's reputation would be tarnished.
Therefore, she would rather die to protect the reputation of the Xu family, protect her reputation, and not let anyone have the opportunity to laugh at her Xu family. What disappointed her was that even if she didn't say anything, the doctors wouldn't notice.
Xu Waner shook her head slightly again, "They are all quacks, not even half as good as the miracle doctors. They have been treating me for two years, but they haven't found out the real cause of my illness. Or... may I ask your surname, madam?"
After struggling to talk for a long time, Xu Waner finally remembered that she hadn't asked the name of the miracle doctor's apprentice yet.
"My maiden name is Xia."
Xia Zihan originally wanted to say that her husband's surname was Chu, but when she thought about it, her father-in-law and her husband were quite famous in Jiangnan Border Pass, and the surname Chu was rare. Once she said it, anyone with a little bit of brain would be able to do it. Think of her identity.
Simply, she stopped talking.
Xu Waner stretched out her hand from the quilt and reached out to Xia Zihan with great difficulty, "Sister Xia, can I shout like that?"
"Yes."
Xia Zihan quickly held her hand and comforted her, "I already know your illness. Don't worry, you won't die. I can also guarantee that after I cure you, you can be the same as before. Jumping up and down all day long to lift roof tiles.”
"I'm not that naughty, Sister Xia, I'm a little sleepy." Xu Waner couldn't hold it anymore and wanted to close her eyes.
Xia Zihan hurriedly poured out two pills with different colors from the porcelain bottle in her purse, and said, "Don't go to bed yet. Wait until you take the pills before going to bed. This way your body will recover faster."
Xu Waner's eyes that had just been closed slowly opened again, "Okay, let's go to bed after eating."
Xia Zihan hurriedly took a large pillow and placed it behind her back, letting her sit half-reclining and half-sitting. After she sat firmly, she fed the pill into Xu Waner's mouth.
The pill melted in the mouth and was swallowed by Xu Waner in the blink of an eye.
After Xu Waner fell asleep, Xia Zihan wrote a prescription and pressed it under the teapot on the middle table. Also pressed under the teapot was a banknote of two hundred taels of silver.
After doing all this, Xia Zihan left with a relieved look.
The next day, Xu Waner's mental state was much better. She was no longer as weak as before when she spoke, as if she was as weak as a page and could be blown down at any time. Her originally white cheeks were also slightly red.
She looked at the maid and said, "What did you just say? What prescription is on the table?"
"Girl, that's what happened..." The maid told Xu Waner in a snap. When she woke up in the morning, she saw that the door latch was loosened, and there was an inexplicable prescription and a piece of silver on the table. ticket.
"Girl, it's two hundred taels of silver." The maid said with an almost incredible smile.
As for how the money came from, the maid felt that she didn't have to think about it. She only knew that with the money, her girl could take the medicinal soup for a few more days.
When Xu Waner heard this, a smile appeared in her eyes.
This means that she really saw Sister Xia yesterday, and it was not a dream.
Since Sister Xia is Doctor Bai's apprentice and he says she can be saved, then she must be saved. She believes that Sister Xia will not lie to her.
She really doesn't have to die.
Xu Waner looked excited and told the maid, "You will go to the manager with the banknote and prescription in a moment and ask him to replace all the previous decoctions. I want to take the medicinal decoction on this prescription.
