The Shen family's back house looked calm all night, but in fact there was hidden trouble.
In the nursing home, Luo Shizhong and his wife stayed awake all night guarding their daughter.
The medicinal soup has been boiled long ago and kept in a medicine pot. It is heated every hour and one-fifth of it is poured out and fed to my daughter.
After the child stopped convulsing, he quickly fell asleep and it was very difficult to take medicine.
One of the couple held the child, and the other used a spoon to feed it to his mouth bit by bit.
After feeding the first three bowls of medicine, it was already close to midnight.
Looking at her daughter who was still asleep, Mrs. Luo leaned on her husband's shoulder and couldn't help but shed tears again.
"It's all because of my unsatisfactory health. The child was born with inherent deficiencies. Otherwise, he wouldn't have suffered so much. If the gods and Buddhas in the heavens had the spirit, I would be willing to suffer all the pain for my daughter, as long as she can get better."
"Why are you crying again?" Luo Shizhong comforted his wife and said, "We have to look for the brighter side, right? So many doctors said before that there was no hope, but now Mrs. Tong just took two kinds of medicine, and the child stopped convulsing and was sober before. After a while, although I have been falling asleep tonight, I haven't had any more seizures, right? I think this lady Tong really has something to do, and our Qiaozhen will definitely get better."
"I hope so!" Mrs. Luo listened to her husband's words. Although the fire in her heart became stronger, perhaps Mrs. Tong's two medicines had a great effect on waking up the child. Now, after drinking three bowls of medicine, there is no sign of it. She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed at the obvious improvement.
The two of them guarded their daughter without saying a word, while Mrs. Luo couldn't help but think wildly.
"Tell me, is it true, as Dr. Gong said, that Qiaozhen was having a comeback at that time, but now she is no longer useful? No wonder Mrs. Tong refused to stay. She insisted on coming back for a follow-up consultation in the morning. I think she was just cheating. Since we can’t find her, why don’t we just run away?”
Luo Shizhong had never thought about these worries, but at this time, his child was seriously ill and his wife was on the verge of collapse. As the head of the family, he had no other choice but to work hard to hold on.
The long night finally passed, and all five bowls of medicine were given to the child.
As soon as the white fish belly started to appear on the sky, Mrs. Luo started to run around in the room anxiously.
"It's already dawn, why isn't Mrs. Tong here yet? Didn't she say she would come as early as possible today?"
Luo Shizhong was also anxious, but he couldn't show it, otherwise what's the use of the couple running around in circles?
He went out and spent money to buy a pot of hot water. When he came back, he poured it into a copper basin and wetted the cloth to wipe his daughter's body.
During these days of seeking medical advice, my daughter often suffered from sweating and wetted several sets of clothes every day.
Unexpectedly, when he was about to reach out to wipe his daughter's face and neck, he suddenly discovered that his daughter was still dry today, whether in her hair or under her clothes.
"Mother Qiao Zhen, come and see, my daughter didn't sweat much last night."
Mrs. Luo had reached the peak of her anxiety at this time. Although she could hear what her husband was saying, she could no longer understand or understand what he meant.
She threw herself to the bedside and cried at the top of her lungs: "You're not sweating anymore? Qiaozhen? My mother's sweetheart——"
The soundproofing of the house in the nursing home was not good. Mrs. Luo cried loudly in the house, and people outside could hear her clearly.
"No way, the little girl is gone?"
"Lady Tong's medical skills seemed pretty good yesterday. Didn't she cure Lao Guo?"
"Then what do you think we should drink this morning or not?"
"What are you afraid of? I drank a bowl of medicine yesterday, and I feel much more comfortable when I woke up today. Believe it or not, I will continue to drink it anyway."
"I think the little girl is too seriously ill, and even the doctors in Wuchang Mansion are not optimistic about it. Madam Tong is so young that it is normal that she cannot be saved."
The people in the Yangji Hall were talking in low voices. Shen Tianshu walked into the Yangji Hall wearing a curtain hat. Seeing more than a dozen people gathered outside the door, he stepped forward and asked, "What happened?"
When everyone saw her, they immediately looked at each other with different expressions.
Shen Tianshu didn't know why. Just when he was about to knock on the door, he was stopped by his aunt.
She just heard her whisper: "Just now we heard the mother of the child in the room crying bitterly. We were thinking that the child was not in good condition, right? Girl, aunt has been through many things in her life, and she knows that some diseases cannot be forced away. It's in your destiny.
"But they are a young couple and they only have one child. You gave them hope yesterday. If the child really has a problem today, it will be more difficult for them to accept it. Why don't you go back and pretend you didn't come over? We won't I told you."
"Thank you, ma'am, for thinking about me like this, but no matter what the situation is, I have to go in and take a look."
After using American ginseng and musk yesterday, Shen Tianshu was 60% sure about saving Luo Qiaozhen. As long as the couple gave the child medicine strictly according to the time last night, even if he hadn't woken up yet, it would not get worse.
Judging from how much Luo Shizhong and his wife care about their children, Shen Tianshu believes that they will strictly follow the doctor's instructions and will never dare to slack off.
Minghui stepped forward to knock on the door, and Luo Shizhong quickly came out to answer the door.
The rooms in Yangji Hall were the dormitories of former students. The furnishings in the rooms are extremely simple. Once the door is opened, you can see everything inside.
Everyone saw Mrs. Luo sitting by the bed and sobbing. The child was lying on the bed. Although they could not see clearly, they could still see the slight rise and fall of the chest.
The child was still alive, and everyone outside the door breathed a sigh of relief.
When Luo Shizhong saw Shen Tianshu, it was as if he saw a life-saving straw.
Since she really dares to come for a follow-up consultation today, it shows that she is confident in curing her daughter.
Mrs. Luo naturally had the same idea, and her eyes almost glowed when she looked at Shen Tianshu.
"Ms. Tong, please come and take a look at the child. Although the child has not had convulsions all night, he has been drowsy. He used to sweat a lot every day, but he didn't sweat much last night. What's going on? What's the matter?"
Shen Tianshu first stepped forward to diagnose the child's pulse, then opened his eyelids to take a look, and then checked the tongue coating, then wiped his hands with a silk handkerchief and said: "Excessive sweating is due to physical weakness. Excessive sweating can easily damage the vitality. Last night there was no He continued to sweat profusely because the medicine was taking effect.
"As for being drowsy all the time, sleep is also a state in which the human body recovers itself. As long as there are no more twitches or night sweats, it will be better..."
As Shen Tianshu was talking, she found that the couple who had been listening to her attentively had become distracted at some point, with all four eyes staring at the bed behind her with expressions of disbelief.
She turned around subconsciously and saw Luo Qiaozhen, who had just closed her eyes and remained motionless, but she didn't know when she woke up.
Although Luo Qiaozhen still looked tired, even raising her eyelids seemed to be very laborious, she still struggled to say: "Mom, I'm hungry!"
