I was a god in the 18th century

"Okay, stop reading. Nanny, please rest for a while... Eh-" Grandpa Xia saw that Xia Qingdai was very tired, so he thought about withdrawing his hand, but found that he couldn't move, and his wrist seemed to be stuck to Xia Qingdai. On Qingdai's fingers.

"I'm fine." At the same time, she felt a strange movement, and her energy bounced back into Xia Qingdai's body like a conditioned reflex.

After regaining her strength, Xia Qingdai looked up at her uncle and said, "Uncle, grandpa has fluid in his lungs and needs to go to the hospital for a checkup."

Uncle Wu Zhengzhe asked with suspicion: "There is fluid in the lungs? How is this possible? Is it true? Can you really feel the pulse?"

Xia Qingdai replied with certainty: "There is 100% pulmonary effusion."

She asked her grandpa again: "Grandpa, do you feel it yourself? You keep coughing, and your back is always cold, right?"

Grandpa Xia replied hesitantly: "The vest is often cold. It's cold now. It'll be fine if it's warm."

Aunts and cousins ​​also expressed doubts about Xia Qingdai's statement. A junior high school student read two books on traditional Chinese medicine, and even if he took his pulse, he could definitely diagnose the disease. No one believed it.

But Grandma Xia believed it, because Xia Qingdai had just diagnosed her with high blood pressure.

Moreover, she also has feelings about her husband's health. It has been getting worse recently and she feels very uneasy at night. She really wanted her husband to go to the hospital and call a doctor, but she couldn't bring herself to trouble her children.

After all, an old man who cannot read a word is anxious about going to the hospital and can only count on his children.

But Grandma Xia, who has been strong all her life, is unwilling to take the initiative to trouble her daughter.

Wu Zhengzhe and Wu Qing'e, brothers and sisters, are still questioning Xia Qingdai's level and don't really want to send Grandpa Xia to a doctor for examination.

Both of them are from rural areas. They have been seeing doctors at barefoot doctors all their lives and are naturally resistant to Western medicine and hospitals.

When Wu Zhengzhe got herpes zoster that year, he refused to go to the doctor because he put off the treatment, which left him with the sequelae of neuralgia.

However, he never admitted that it was delaying his illness that caused sequelae. Instead, he blamed the side effects of taking Western medicine.

He highly praised the traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture that later cured his shingles. He took the online acupuncture course and never got off.

Seeing that the discussion was fruitless, Xia Shanglu turned his head and asked Xia Qingdai: "Are you really sure?"

Xia Qingdai nodded: "Brother, my pulse diagnosis is really good."

Xia Shanglu then made a decision directly: "I will take grandpa for a checkup early tomorrow morning. Don't worry after the checkup."

Since he said so, others naturally had no objections and all agreed.

Wu Zhengzhe said that he would accompany him tomorrow so that his grandson would not need to take the trouble.

Xia Shanglu said with a smile: "I will have a day off tomorrow anyway, so I will be free."

The eldest cousin-in-law also took the initiative to express his position: "Then take my car tomorrow and I will drive grandpa off."

"That couldn't be better."

After discussing this matter, everyone started to have dinner.

Because they decided to take their grandfather to the doctor for a check-up tomorrow, the brother and sister Xia Shanglu changed their schedule tonight and chose to stay overnight.

There is nothing else in my grandparents' house, and there are many empty rooms. It's no problem to stay for one night.

The beds are relatively simple. They are very old bamboo beds, which are decades old. The two brothers and sisters were not picky about the environment and made do with staying for one night.

Early the next morning, Xia Shanglu, his uncle and grandfather took his cousin-in-law's car to Wengshan Hospital.

During the Chinese New Year, there were many fewer people in the hospital than usual. Xia Shanglu's turn came not long after the ordinary outpatient number he called last night. Xia Qingdai did not follow, and stayed in her uncle's study to continue reading medical books.

It was almost lunch time when Xia Shanglu called.

"Brother, how was the examination?"

"You are right. Grandpa does have pulmonary effusion. He needs to be hospitalized to have it drained and further pathological examination is required."

"Tell uncle and grandpa, don't worry, it's no big problem." If there is a big problem, Xia Qingdai can "see" it.

Although she doesn't know how to treat, she is very knowledgeable.

Moreover, Xia Qingdai has a strong ability to "see" diseases. Even if she says she can't cure them, everyone still thinks she can.

She said that there was no big problem with grandpa, and everyone felt at ease.

What the doctor said was scary, but their family members, including grandpa himself, were not worried. They all began to believe Xia Qingdai's words without thinking.

After all, these people in my family have never met a doctor who can detect symptoms by taking his pulse!

Nowadays, when most traditional Chinese medicine hospitals treat patients, they actually ask them to undergo instrumental examinations and do not rely on inspection, smell, and examination to diagnose their condition.

After all, easy-to-use instruments and equipment do not conflict with subsequent treatment!

Western medicine used to only do bloodletting. With the advent of scientific instruments, the level of Western medicine has improved by leaps and bounds. Traditional Chinese medicine can also use instruments to develop. This is an inevitable trend.

After my grandmother learned that her husband was hospitalized, she was anxious and wanted to spend the night with her, but was stopped by her aunt and uncle. She is eighty years old, so I don’t dare to let her work too hard.

But grandma and grandpa have a deep love for each other and must go. In the end, her daughter-in-law couldn't resist her, so she had to call a car to take her there.

Next, there will be nothing to worry about Xia Shanglu. Grandpa has medical insurance and savings. He pays for it himself, and his children contribute, so there is nothing to worry about if there are no grandchildren.

After this time, the whole family was impressed by Xia Qingdai's medical skills. Wang Jun, a quasi-doctor who was originally sought after when he returned home, became the control group and was criticized.

Wu Qing'e said with some irritation: "Look at Qingdai, she is only in the third year of high school and she can achieve this level by self-study. It seems to me that Bao (the barefoot doctor in the village) is not as good as her. You have already gone to medical school, why are you still doing this?" You don’t know anything? Even if your aunt asks you to look at a X-ray film, you can’t do it.”

Wang Jun was helpless: "I have only studied for one semester."

Wu Qing'e: "Qingdai is only in her third year of high school. She is self-taught. She has never attended a single day of class in a medical school!"

Wang Jun: "...She is extremely defiant."

Wu Qing'e sighed faintly: "Qingdai's face means that she will have great fortune, and this child is indeed amazing. I have to fix the Feng Shui bureau at home quickly this year, and I will ensure that your medical skills will be even better than Qingdai's in the future."

Wang Jun: "..."

At this time, Xia Qingdai was carrying a schoolbag of medical books given by her uncle, and was sitting on the train back to Jiangcheng with her brother.

She is now holding the medical book and reading it with all her concentration. The more she reads, the more she likes it.

She did well in her first exam, and she had Gauss, Martin, and Irving at home to help her with three-on-one private tutoring. Xia Qingdai didn't panic at all about studying.

I didn’t bring any books with me when I came out this time, and I had the leisure to read medical books at the moment.

Her uncle bought a lot of Chinese medicine books without annotations. The original versions in ancient Chinese were too difficult to understand, so he simply picked them out and gave them to Xia Qingdai.

Wu Zhengzhe, who is almost sixty years old, does not expect to really learn Chinese medicine, so he specializes in acupuncture. Once he learns acupuncture well, he will be satisfied.
