Song Yi

Chapter 181

After shopkeeper Yin recovered from his illness, he went out of the capital again to trade leather goods.

When Niu Jingbo recalled this experience of treatment, he was very emotional. He was straightforward and outraged by the misdiagnosed quack doctor, so he brought the little skinny man to Yuanrun Hall first, told the story, and taught Dr. Tang a lesson.Dr. Tang's forehead was dripping with cold sweat.

Then, Niu Jingbo took the little thin man to Dr. Zhuang of Hui Ren Tang.

When Dr. Zhuang heard this, he was very surprised that the person he believed to be dead was cured by the young Du Wenhao from Wuweitang.I had to check the prescription, and after thinking about it carefully, I felt that Du Wenhao Yilazhila's medication was really unimaginable, bold and careful, and I admired it very much. He felt ashamed and apologized at the moment.

Niu Jingbo didn't think too much of himself, when he saw that he had admitted his mistake, he stopped scolding and walked away with the little skinny boy.

Dr. Zhuang's heart felt as if the river was overwhelmed, and he sat there in a daze.

Dr. Xiao was very strange. After asking about it, he also felt that Du Wenhao was not in vain. Last time, the two of them were shocked that Du Wenhao used aconite in a large dose to cure Ada's illness, but he was not poisoned. The master who does not accept money from the Imperial Physician Cheng is good at Hua Tuo's magical technique of laparotomy. It is no wonder that his medical skills are like gods. Now he knows that Du Wenhao cured a dysentery patient who he judged to be fatal, and he used La Zhila's method , Both of them were surprised and ashamed.

The two were shaking their heads with emotion when a carriage came galloping and stopped at the door.A person jumped out of the carriage, hurried into the house, cupped his hands and said: "Doctor Zhuang, my master invites you to come to the doctor for treatment."

Doctor Zhuang bowed his hand and returned the gift: "Who is your master?"

"Master Xue He Xue, the censor."

The censor is from the sixth grade, and he is the assistant official of the doctor censor.

Doctor Zhuang asked, "Who is sick?"

"Our wife, you can't have a bowel movement."

Doctor Zhuang nodded, picked up the medicine box, followed the servants into the car, and came to Xue's residence.

Xue He went out to greet him personally, and welcomed Dr. Zhuang to the inner house.

It is generally not allowed to consult a female family member, especially an official family member.A gauze tent was set up in the inner house, and a small tea table was placed in front of the gauze tent. Mrs. Xue sat behind the gauze tent, stretched out her hand from the gap between the two gauze tents, and placed it on the pulse pillow of the tea table.
Dr. Zhuang sat down in front of the gauze tent, put three fingers on Mrs. Xue's wrist, and concentrated on taking the pulse.I asked a few more questions about my symptoms.Then he asked Xue He: "Did you ask the doctor to see your wife's illness?"

"Please take a look at the doctor. It was shown by Dr. Lin from the Imperial Hospital. He said it was intestinal dryness. He used hemp seeds for several days, but it didn't work. I heard that you, Hui Ren Tang, are very good at treating intestinal knots, so Specially send someone to invite you."

Dr. Zhuang humbly said a few words, then cupped his hands and said, "What Dr. Lin said about intestinal dryness is not accurate. Because Mrs. Zun's heart is distended and painful, her hands can't get close, her chest is distressed, her stools are obstructed, and her six pulses are weak. Jie, this disease doesn’t matter, take Chengqi Decoction, two doses should be effective.”

Xue He said happily: "Thank you so much, sir."

Doctor Zhuang wrote the prescription with a pen, and his servants went to pick the medicine with the prescription.Xue He gave Dr. Zhuang five taels of consultation money, and sent a carriage to take him back to the pharmacy.

The next day, Xue's carriage came again, and it was still the same servant with an anxious look on his face: "Is Doctor Zhuang there?"

Doctor Xiao said: "Doctor Zhuang is on a medical visit, is there anything wrong?"

The servant bowed and said: "My mistress is sick and her bowel movements are blocked. Yesterday I invited Dr. Zhuang to see the doctor and prescribed a prescription. He said it would be cured after taking it, but it still didn't work this morning, so I came here Please go see the doctor again."

When Dr. Zhuang came back yesterday, he proudly showed off that he cured the intestinal knot of the wife of Xue He, the servant of the censor. Xue He rewarded him with five taels of silver.Doctor Xiao didn't show his expression on the surface, but he was somewhat jealous in his stomach.Hearing this now, he regained his energy all of a sudden. Although the two of them are both the incumbent doctors of Hui Ren Tang, they still have a rivalry in secret.If he cured Mrs. Xue He's illness, he would not only surpass Dr. Zhuang, but also get more rewards than Dr. Zhuang.He hurriedly said: "Doctor Zhuang won't be back for a while, so how about it, I'll go and see for him."

Dr. Xiao picked up the consultation box, got in the car and came to Xue's residence.

After Xue He's wife took Dr. Zhuang's medicine, she squatted on the toilet several times, but she couldn't defecate at all, and her abdomen was very distended.So Xue He's complexion was a bit ugly, and he also played an official tone, and said coldly: "Doctor Xiao, I respect you Hui Rentang, and I sincerely invite you to treat my wife, but after your doctor Zhuang took the medicine, It's still useless. I want to ask, can you cure this intestinal knot in Chi Nei?"

Dr. Xiao saw sweat on his forehead, and regretted that he came here to be scolded. Now Master Xue is angry. If he can't cure himself, he is afraid that he will be in bad luck. Said: "Lord Xue, wait until I give Mrs. Zun a medical diagnosis first, then I will know what to do."

Xue He snorted coldly, cupped his hands, and did not speak.

Dr. Xiao was frightened and sat down on the stool outside the curtain. He faintly heard Mrs. Xue moaning in a low voice behind the curtain. shake.

Dr. Xiao was too nervous, and it took him a while to be sure that Madam Xue's pulse was weak and thread-thin, which was a severe pulse, and he was even more nervous. He slowly withdrew his hand, thinking about how to escape.

Xue He seemed to see Doctor Xiao's uncertainty, his words were a little annoyed, and he said in a drawn-out voice: "Doctor, how can I cure this disease?"

"This..." Dr. Xiao stammered, "Can you tell me about the history of Mrs. Zun's illness?" I thought it would be best to delay for a while, so that I can figure out how to treat it. Even if it can't be cured, the problem cannot be eliminated .

Xue He said: "A few days ago, I took my wife to attend the family banquet of Lord Yushi with me. After I came back, I felt bloated, but I didn't care too much at the time because I couldn't get any bowel movements. After two days, I still couldn't move my bowels, so I invited you Diagnosis and treatment... Doctor Xiao?—Doctor Xiao?"

Dr. Xiao didn't listen to him much, but just wanted to take the opportunity to slow down and think of a way. While listening, his head was distracted, and his head somehow turned to Du Wenhao of Wuweitang, thinking that this young doctor is really powerful, not only He is good at Hua Tuo's magical skills, and he is familiar with the treatment of various difficult and miscellaneous diseases. If the medicine can cure the disease, it would be great if he can be like him. He used Pingwei Powder to treat dysentery with Lazhila, and used poison to fight poison, and it worked. Replace it with someone else , who dares to use this trick?
His head was distracted, Xue He called twice, he came back to his senses, hummed, and said: "My lord called me?"

"Nonsense, it's just the two of us, if I don't call you, who am I to call you?——Let me ask you, have you seen what kind of disease is the bitch?"

Dr. Xiao was thinking about Du Wenhao's medicine, when Xue He asked him, he said, "Pingwei San!"

"What Pingwei Powder?" Xue He frowned.

After saying this, Dr. Xiao's eyes suddenly lit up, yes, why not use Pingwei San?With a smile on his face, he coughed lightly and said, "Master Xue, Madam's illness is actually not intestinal dryness, nor excessive heat, but stagnation of food!"

"Food stagnation?"

"Yes, the reason for your Madam's illness is that after returning from the banquet, there must be improper food at the banquet, resulting in stagnant food in the stomach and intestines. The only cure for stagnant food is Pingwei San!"

Xue He recalled that when he went to the banquet, Master Yu Shi hired a new cook, and the dishes he cooked were really good. The husband and wife were both greedy. They really had a full meal at that time. The reason for stepping down was stagnation of food, but it did make some sense, so I couldn't help slowing down my tone, stroked my beard and nodded: "Even so, please come down, Mr. Xiao."

Doctor Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and wrote the prescription with a pen.

Xue He rewarded Dr. Xiao another five taels of silver, and sent a car to take him back.

Back at Huiren Hall, Dr. Zhuang had already returned. Dr. Xiao told the story of how he visited him. There was a bit of complacency in his words. Dr. Zhuang pretended not to hear it, and said thank you lightly.

Two days later, early in the morning, as soon as Hui Ren Tang opened, Xue He came angrily in a carriage.

When Dr. Zhuang and Dr. Xiao saw Xue He's expression, they were startled, and hurriedly invited him into the living room of the inner hall to take a seat, and stood with a smiling face.

Xue He slapped the table, and said sharply: "I have spent ten taels of silver to ask you two to treat my wife's illness. It's good for you, one of you is cured, but you can't pass the fart, and the other, it's only open for a little bit, and then it's blocked again. ! Now my wife is so distended that she hits her head against the wall. I have already brought the bitch here, and she is on the cart outside. What do you think should be done?"

Doctor Zhuang and Doctor Xiao both looked at each other bitterly, Doctor Zhuang bowed and said: "Master Xue, no one dares to say that all diseases can be cured by a doctor when heals. Madam, we..." Just now Doctor Zhuang suddenly remembered that Du Wenhao had cured the boy's intestinal tuberculosis, maybe this young doctor has something to do.Hastily said: "Although the two of us can't cure Mrs. Zun's intestinal knot, but recommending one person to your lord will definitely cure Mrs. Xue's disease!"

"who is it?"

"Wuweitang Du Wenhao, Doctor Du, is the young genius doctor who sold a prescription for 10 taels of silver. He is good at Hua Tuo's magical technique of laparotomy. He is the master of Qian Yiqian, the imperial physician of the Imperial Hospital."

Xue He's eyes lit up: "That's right! Why didn't I think of that! Let's go! Go to Wuweitang to invite Dr. Du!" Get up and leave.

Dr. Zhuang and Dr. Xiao also wanted to know whether Du Wenhao could cure Mrs. Xue's illness, so they followed Xue He to Wuweitang.

Sir Shi Yushi personally brought his wife to the door to seek medical treatment. Since they are officials and family members, those who need to be avoided can not see the doctor in the lobby of the pharmacy, nor can they see the doctor directly. Du Wenhao hurriedly ordered to open the gate, welcome the carriage into the courtyard, and come straight to the back hall.His wives, Pang Yuqin and Xue Fei'er, helped Mrs. Xue out of the car and entered the bedroom, which was separated by a curtain. Du Wenhao, Dr. Zhuang, and Dr. Xiao then entered the room.

Du Wenhao asked about the course of the disease, complained of symptoms and pre-medical medications, and then used three fingers to feel the pulse.
