Sometimes, when one hopes for the best and waits, the results are worse than expected . If a person did bad things all day and then wanted Bodhisattva to bless them to be safe and happy, it would be an idiotic dream . Of course, sometimes Bodhisattva just needed time to sleep .
Sun Dacheng only had one son, so he would not give up so easily . The family next went to the provincial capital .
In the evening, Wang Mingbao and Wang Yao had several small dishes in the pub in the village, as well as a small pot of wine . The two people talked until it was very late .
The next morning, the weather was gloomy . The low temperature lasted for a few days . It was warm and springy on the mountain, but it was piercingly cold outside the mountain .
People coming into the clinic to see the doctor kept coughing . Serious coughing with sputum was the common symptom . The medicine Wang Yao gave them was basically the same: honeysuckle, radix isatidis, bitter almond, licorice, and ephedra . It worked to clear heat, remove sputum, and stop coughing .
There were also two adults who came with their children, who were only about 3 or 4 years old . The children were very sick . The suffered from fever, cough, and loss of appetite .
In addition to giving the children some medicinal mild remedies, Wang Yao also gave them a massage to help to relieve the pain .
The effect of the massage was surprisingly good . The children with fevers sweated a lot after the massage . After the fever was gone, their spirits were much better . One of the children was even hungry . Thankfully, his family had brought food with them .
“You need to wait a while before leaving,” Wang Yao said .
The children’s parents rushed to dry the children’s clothes because they had sweated a lot . It was easy to catch a cold again when going out in such cold days . After sending out the parents, Wang Yao was a little more relaxed .
He took out the Treatise on Miscellaneous Diseases to read, which he had read no less than five times . Once he had leisure time, he liked to read it again . It was no longer just for acquiring knowledge . After reading about the diseases, he wondered if there were other suitable solutions to treat them .
At 11:30, when Wang Yao was preparing to lock the door, he saw a car parking next to the clinic . A couple rushed over with a child in a small bag .
“Hello, Dr . Wang, can you check our child?” The parents were anxious .
“Come in and we’ll talk about it . ” Wang Yao hurriedly opened the door and invited them into the clinic .
The child stared at Wang Yao with a pair of very bright little eyes . He was curious . It was as if something new was discovered .
She coughed after a little while . There was a whistling sound in the throat . Her face was red because of the continuous cough .
“Look, doctor, my girl coughs so badly, and her throat is always whispering,” the mother said .
“I heard it . ” Wang Yao shook his hand . There was a warm breath working to keep the cold outside the little baby . “Hold her and sit down . ”
The little baby was very calm . Although she coughed, she did not cry . Some children were naturally charming and attractive, such as this little baby in front of him .
After checking, Wang Yao found that there was nothing wrong with her . He gently massaged her and transfused a small amount of neixi into her . After a few minutes of massage, the whirring in the throat of the little baby began to weaken . After 10 minutes, the sound was almost inaudible .
The little baby was very comfortable . She actually fell asleep in her mother’s arms .
“It’s amazing!” The couple couldn’t believe it .
They had come from the town’s health clinic, where the doctors advised them to infuse their children . They suggested to go to a pediatrician in the township hospitals . The parents were afraid of the delay of treatment . They were also worried that the child was too small to infuse .
They were thankful they had come here . The effect was surprisingly good .
“Thank you, Dr . Wang . ” The parents were overjoyed . They kept expressing their gratitude when they left .
“Go home and take the medicine regularly . Make sure to give your child more water,” Wang Yao said .
“OK, we’ll remember that . ” The parents then left .
Wang Yao went home to have meal .
“Were there a lot of people this the morning?” Zhang Xiuying asked .
When she had gone out to throw away the garbage in the morning she had seen some cars parked outside the son’s medical center . She knew they were looking for her son .
“Well, there were a lot of people, but all of them had colds,” Wang Yao replied .
“There have been a lot of colds recently,” she said .
After eating, Wang Yao returned to the clinic . In the afternoon, there was another wave of patients . There were a lot of people coming today .
Near the evening, Wang Ru came back with Du Mingyang .
“Uncle, aunt . ” Du Mingyang greeted Wang Yao’s parents .
“It’s Mingyang, come in,” Zhang Xiuying said . “How many times have I told you . When you come here, you don’t have to bring so many gifts . ”
“No matter, it’s all snacks and tonic for you and uncle,” Du Mingyang said with a smile . “Xiao Yao?”
“He’s at the clinic,” Zhang Xiuying said . “There are a lot of people coming today . I just went out to see it . There are many cars parked outside . ”
“Xiaoyao’s business is good?” Du Mingyang smiled .
Wang Yao was in the clinic checking on a little baby for treatment . The child suffered from fever, runny nose, loss of appetite, and vomiting . “Why did you come so late?”
The child’s condition was similar to the 6-month-old child who was admitted at noon but only slightly more severe . It was already dark when the parents came . It was very cold out .
“I was busy with my job . He has had a cold a few days . When I came back from work today and found that he had a cough, I quickly came over to see you,” the man said .
Wang Yao just listened . The child’s body clearly showed signs of just getting an injection . “Hold him down and sit down . ”
Wang Yao gave the child a massage in the normal way but gently . In this way, the boy sweated quickly, and his face became red .
So effective! He was really worthy of the reputation! The couple looked at each other and were very surprised . They heard from other people that the doctor was very skillful . Their child has recently been infused for three days, but the effect was not very good . They were really worried, so they rushed over to the clinic .
When they first saw Wang Yao giving their son a massage, they were still suspicious . Massage could cure some diseases, especially for special diseases such as lumbar disc herniation, but they had never heard that massage could treat colds and coughs . Wang Yao overturned their traditional thoughts .
The original massage could reach such a high level that it could fever, cough, and bronchitis .
The general massage method was naturally not so effective . It could only play a role in auxiliary treatment and health care . However, Wang Yao was naturally different . It turned out that his massage technique was the ancient pharmacist’s medical skill, which was really extraordinary . His neixi was extremely refined, unique, and effective . As a result, the combination of both was incomparable and marvelous .
“I will give you some more medicine, which he should take regularly when you return home,” Wang Yao said .
“Oh, thank you, doctor,” the man said .
When the husband and wife left, it was already 6:30 . Although the winter solstice had passed and the days were becoming longer, it was still completely dark .
“Xiao Yao, do you finish your business?” A man’s voice came from outside .
Wang Yao went to see who it was and found Du Mingyang .
“Hey, why are you here?” Wang Yao asked .
“No patients?” Du Mingyang asked .
“They are all gone . ” Wang Yao said .
“Then, go home to have meal . The food is ready . We are waiting for you,” Du Mingyang said .
“You go back first . I will clean up here and be back soon,” Wang Yao said .
“Can I help you?” Du Mingyang kindly helped . He was embarrassed for a while because he didn’t know what to do . Wang Yao quickly cleared up the clinic . The two of them went home together .
At home, Zhang Xiuying already had prepared a good dinner . In fact, dinner should be as simple and light as possible . A dinner that was too rich could increase the burden on the body . It was only OK occasionally . But, if everything in life could be done according to science and rules, it would be a bit rigid and boring, like the monks in the temple who insisted on the rules and regulations .
