Cheng Wanwan spread out a piece of paper and asked Cheng Zhao to write the letter on his behalf.
This letter was asked by Shen Zheng to take to Magistrate Shen.
The main purpose is to inform the symptoms of plague and explain in detail the isolation methods to prevent the spread of the disease.
As for the treatment method, she needed to study and test it before she dared to hand over the prescription. After all, it was a matter of life and death, and she could not make a decision based on experience.
After the letter was written, it was solemnly handed into Shen Zheng's hands.
Shen Zheng said: "Auntie, I should stay in the city to assist my father in managing the refugee affairs, and come back after a while."
Cheng Wanwan looked at him and said softly: "You must take precautions and wear a mask at all times. Don't neglect it. Do you understand?"
She packed some special masks in a bag and handed them over. These were for Magistrate Shen and the government officials to use. If the officials fell, Ping'an County would really be in chaos.
Shen Zheng obeyed her instructions and followed Zhao Ergou into the carriage. The carriage left Dahe Village smoothly.
Cheng Wanwan had no time to worry about the condition of the children. At this time, Wang Yongcheng hurried over and reported: "Dashan Niang, the number of people suffering from fever in the village has increased by seven, and there are still more than 20 people who do not have fever, but they have been Cough, how are these people going to be resettled?”
"Patients with high fever are taken to the ancestral hall for isolation. Except for Li Xiu'e, no one else can go near the ancestral hall." Cheng Wanwan made a prompt decision, "Let Master Yu move to Xiao He's residence. The school is used to house mild patients."
Wang Yongcheng nodded and went to do it immediately.
Cheng Wanwan went to the ancestral hall first.
There are only three rooms in the ancestral hall, with the memorial tablets placed in the middle, and the left and right rooms housing critically ill patients.
These people were all burned out, all red, and talking nonsense. Their parents collapsed and cried outside the ancestral hall, but there was nothing they could do.
Cheng Wanwan walked into the ancestral hall. Li Xiu'e was the only one there. It was easy for her to avoid Li Xiu'e and feed the medicine. There were nine people in total, and she gave them antipyretic medicine to all of them.
After feeding, she walked out of the ancestral hall, looked at the parents who were lying on the ground, and said slowly: "Don't worry, everyone, Uncle Li Zheng and I will not give up on anyone in the village. From today on, you will bring children from home." The children’s rations will be delivered, and I will be responsible for cooking the porridge and delivering it.”
She has eaten isatis root, which makes her more resistant to viruses. Moreover, she wears a medical-grade mask and disinfects her hands from time to time. Her probability of getting sick is lower than everyone here. Furthermore, even if she gets sick, she She can also buy medicine for treatment from the mall, so she is the most suitable candidate.
These collapsed parents had no choice but to follow Cheng Wanwan's arrangements and trudged home one by one to get food.
"Dashan Niang, there's a commotion over there." Li Zheng came over in a hurry, with a haggard look on his face, "Among the more than twenty people coughing, there were several children aged two or three. The children's parents refused to leave the children alone. What should we do in school?"
Cheng Wanwan followed Li Zheng towards the school. Before he could get closer, he heard constant coughing.
Three or four women held their children in their arms and cried bitterly.
The child was indeed young, only two years old, a three-year-old, and a four- or five-year-old child. They were crying so hard that they were out of breath.
Cheng Wanwan said: "If the child is too young, the mother will stay in the school with her and take care of other patients. However, make it clear in advance that if you live with the patients, you will also be susceptible to the disease. If you I am mentally prepared and I personally will not have any objections."
It is really cruel to separate children from their parents.
And the child is too young and really needs to be taken care of.
The women who were mothers naturally nodded hurriedly.
Cheng Wanwan continued: "Everyone who lives in the school will eat alone and pay rations per person. The cost of medicine will be borne by the village for the time being. I will be responsible for cooking the porridge and medicine."
She needs to determine the dosage of the medicine and its therapeutic effect before she can deliver the prescription to Magistrate Shen and save more people.
"Da Shan Niang, there is something wrong with what you said." Mrs. Zhang's sharp voice sounded, "We hand over the food, what if you deduct it? These days, food is more valuable than gold, I can't trust you."
She held her nine-year-old son Zhang Daqiang in her arms, coughing all the time.
Cheng Wanwan raised her eyes: "It's better than this. Madam Zhang takes her son home. Wang Yongcheng, you arrange for someone to guard the Zhang family's door and not allow anyone in their family to enter or exit. The Zhang family will bear all the consequences themselves."
"You!" Mrs. Zhang's eyes widened, "You are too domineering. Are you a Sui Ruren?"
"Suiru people are amazing." Li Zheng said coldly, "If the Zhang family doesn't listen to the village's arrangements, then stay at home. If you dare to sneak out, I will kick your family out immediately. .”
"You stinky bitch, why are you doing so much trouble!" Zhang Rascal cursed and threw Zhang Daqiang into the school, "You kid, please just stay alone. How old are you? It's embarrassing for your mother to hold you." !Zhang Dagang, go back and bring the rice over!"
Granny Zhang wanted to say something more, but was forcibly taken away by rogue Zhang.
Even the most difficult Zhang family was scolded away by Li Zheng, and the others naturally obeyed the orders. In the end, all the more than 20 people with mild symptoms were admitted to the ancestral hall, along with three women.
Cheng Wanwan ordered people to build an earthen stove in the open space and set up two large pots, one for cooking porridge and the other for boiling medicine.
Zhao Ergou and his party haven't come back yet, so she plans to buy some medicinal materials from the space and cook them first. She uses Shuanghuanglian formula, the main ingredients are forsythia, honeysuckle and skullcap.
The Shuanghuanglian formula was widely promoted after being verified by modern science. It has a good effect on treating influenza and viral infections.
She once read a report that ancient plagues sounded scary, but in fact some were similar to modern influenza. As long as the right medicine was given, the disease could be cured quickly.
While she was preparing the medicinal materials, Doctor Zheng suddenly came over: "Da Shan Niang, why are you locking up sick people alone? They need to be treated immediately, otherwise they will be burned to death by high fever!"
Cheng Wanwan raised his head and asked slowly: "Zhao Guan'er and Zhao Shagen both asked Doctor Zheng for prescriptions and took several doses of medicine. Doctor Zheng, can you see if they have recovered?"
Doctor Zheng choked for a moment and said: "They have a high fever that won't go away. I prescribed a prescription to relieve the fever. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the prescription. I don't know why it hasn't been cured... but even if it hasn't been cured, it can't be done." Give up treatment and use the method of clearing the bowels and releasing heat to relieve constipation and make the evil heat go away. If it doesn't work once you take the medicine, take it a few more times and it will always work..."
"Excessive ejaculation can cause the lips and face to turn blue and make you short of breath. If the body is too weak, you may die." Cheng Wanwan threw the medicinal materials into the pot and continued, "For another recipe, use the method of raising the soup to stop boiling. Then it will damage the body fluids, make the hot ones even hotter, and the hot ones will be cold again..."
She was talking eloquently, and Doctor Zheng was suddenly shocked.
He knew that Dashan Niang was very powerful, but this was the first time he knew that Dashan Niang was also skilled in medicine.
"Mr. Zheng, do you understand? The focus is not on reducing fever, but on dispelling wind and relieving the surface, clearing away heat and detoxifying. Detoxification is the most important thing." Cheng Wanwan looked at him, "I use skullcap, forsythia, and honeysuckle as the main ingredients. , supplemented with other medicinal materials, boil some medicine first and give it a try."
Doctor Zheng was stunned again: "Isn't this, this recipe for livestock?"
This prescription is an antidote, which means it can be treated wherever there is a problem. It is a strong medicine, and only animals can withstand such a powerful medicine.
He once prescribed this medicine when he was treating animals in the village.
It's really a bold attempt to use it on people...
