Chapter 8: Money Not Guaranteed
Pang Xiao shook his head, "It doesn't hurt, you can feel your touch!"
Zhou Heng nodded. The ancients generally rarely used analgesic drugs, and it seemed that their sensitivity to anesthetics was pretty good.
"Okay, I'm going to clean the wound!"
After saying that, Zhou Heng quickly cut off the tissue on the cut surface. The edge of the wound was not neat and was stained with toxins. The most important thing at this moment is debridement.
After cleaning up, I started to rinse it with salt water. As for the defective bone, I couldn't find it. The pain of cloudy and rainy days is inevitable. However, compared with the broken arm, this is a very good result.
Zhou Heng sutured the wound in layers and gave him a few stitches on the cuts on his fingers. Time passed by minute by minute. When he was sewing the last finger, Pang Xiao's hand shook.
Obviously, the effect of the anesthetic has begun to dissipate. I quickly tied the knot to loosen the tourniquet, and my pale arms suddenly turned red.
Zhou Heng put away the scarf and utensils and threw them into the first aid kit. He looked at the location where the anti-via venom serum was injected just now. There was only a small needle eye, without redness, swelling and fever. It seemed that he was lucky that Pang Xiao was not allergic.
I felt relieved and I had my own hands, no laboratory equipment, no nurse, and no anesthesiologist. I felt a little tired from the rescue last night to today.
Zhou Heng checked the utensils and saw that there was no omission, so he wrapped the box with a sack. Then he returned to the edge of the soft couch and pulled off the silk handkerchief from Pang Xiao's head.
Suddenly seeing Guangming, Pang Xiao was a little uncomfortable and turned his head to look at his left arm. At this time, he just wrapped his wrist and rootless fingertips into gauze. The exposed part could see that the skin had returned to blood.
Pang Xiao stared at Zhou Heng in disbelief. Zhou Heng's cheeks trembled. What does this look mean?
Do you think there is something wrong with your medical skills?
"Uh, Xiao Bo?"
Pang Xiao then came to his senses, "Thank you, Doctor Zhou, I have eliminated the poison. Do you need to take any medicine?"
Zhou Heng breathed a sigh of relief and thought for a moment. Since the anti-via venom serum is effective, it means that he has bet correctly. Then he can also use medicine in this direction for treatment.
"The poison has been relieved, and the surgery has been performed for debridement. However, you have been poisoned for a long time, so you still have to eat something to relieve the residual poison."
"Oh, I don't know what it is?"
Zhou Heng blinked, what was the name of hawthorn in ancient times?
I remember reading Rong Xiaorong wrote a time travel novel that once said that people in the mountains did not pick hawthorns in large quantities, and I don’t know if this is the case here.
"This thing is called red fruit, also known as hawthorn or mountain red, and can be used as medicine. It has a size similar to apricot, with a dark red coat, and some white sand dots on it, and its taste is sweet and sour."
Pang Xiao thought about it for a moment and seemed to have never heard of this thing before. He raised his hand to pat the window frame.
"Come in!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Heng heard the sound of someone pulling the door. Then he realized that he had just been afraid of disturbing others, so he closed the door and window, with a slightly awkward face. He quickly got up and opened the door latch.
A man wearing a black robe and a sword around his waist walked in quickly, heading straight to the soft couch, kneeling on one knee and clasping his fists.
"I'm here!"
"You heard what Dr. Zhou said just now?"
"Yes, my subordinates heard that this red fruit was found in the mountains. I picked it and ate it when I was a child, but my teeth were sour and I still had unbearable abdominal pain after eating it."
Pang Xiao looked at the person kneeling on the ground. The implication of these words was very obvious. The red fruit was not edible. However, Yu Guang saw Zhou Heng's indifferent expression. Thinking of his master's injuries and the poison in his left hand, Pang Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Since you've seen it, go find it."
The man knelt on the ground and shook his whole body. This was too obvious. He trusted this young doctor who was still stinky and quickly leaned over and said that he had retreated.
Pang Xiao then turned around and looked at Zhou Heng with a smile, and said, "Doctor Zhou, don't go to your heart. I wonder how to cook medicine when I find this red fruit?"
Zhou Heng thought for a while and said, "When the red fruits are picked, I will take a look. If there is no problem, take twelve red fruits and add three bowls of water to boil them into a paste and take them. Take them once a day for seven days, and all the remaining poisons will be removed!"
"Then it's a labor, as for the medical expenses."
Zhou Heng was already pricking up his ears when he heard the word "diagnosis fee".
But when I blinked my eyes, I quickly thought that this person's medical expenses would not be charged. After all, I had to stay in this Meiyuan for a while. If I could get the care of this person, the follow-up medical expenses for that young man would definitely be generous.
Thinking of this, Zhou Heng bowed and said slowly:
"Don't ask for medical treatment fees, it's just a slight effort. My grandfather has died. When I see you, I feel as close as if I see you. If I have not called you Xiao Bo as my son, I would have wanted to lie in front of my knees and call you grandfather."
Pang Xiao was stunned. He didn't expect that the person who was still holding on to the clinic fee yesterday could be so generous today.
Especially the last sentence, it really made his eyes feel a little sore, and then Pang Xiao laughed.
"Okay, then I'm not polite. I hope you will be more worried about my son's injuries. You and Boss Xue live in this courtyard for the time being. I will send someone to take care of your daily life. As for the food you mentioned in Lingshan Village, you can also cook here. There is a small kitchen in this courtyard."
When Zhou Heng heard this, he quickly thanked him.
"Thank you for your concern. I am just thinking about it, but I don't know that there are more famous pharmacies and doctors in Qingping County. I want to go and see them in the past two days."
Pang Xiao thought for a while, "Qingping County is close to Jinan Prefecture. There are two more famous ones called Xinglin Medical Center and the other is called Shouhetang. They all have doctors in the hall, especially Shouhetang, which is the semicolon of Shouhetang in Jinan Prefecture, but the medical fee and medicine price are slightly higher."
Zhou Heng nodded, "Thank you for your advice. By the way, I haven't asked what the young master calls me?"
Pang Xiao paused and then said, "Our young master's surname is Zhu, Yunmo, you can call him Zhu or a young master. I will settle down, so you can rest!"
Pang Xiao did not stop anymore, and turned around and left with his gloves.
Soon, Butler Zhu came back with four servants carrying food boxes and Boss Xue. He followed the man in with a huge bag.
Butler Zhu had just seen him in Mr. Zhu's room. The man had a fat figure, a smile on his face, and looked very kind.
"Mr. Zhou, I have someone bring food here!"
As he said that, the four men entered in one after another, opened the food box and arranged the food in turn, and there was also a tray holding several pieces of clothing on it.
"You two are slow to use. This is Erlin. The young man will leave him to serve you two. If you have anything to ask him to do, Xiao Bo told the young man to prepare two clothes for Mr. Zhou to change clothes and send them to the wing room later."
Zhou Heng stood up and nodded slightly. Unexpectedly, Pang Xiao’s arrangement was so reliable. He was so hungry that he was touching his back.
"Thank you, Butler Zhu!"
"Don't be polite, you two are slow to use, the younger one will take his leave!"
As he said that, he took three servants away. The boy named Erlin helped Zhou Heng and Boss Xue to put on the bowls and chopsticks and stand on one side.
Zhou Heng looked at the man, let alone someone standing next to him, he was really a little helpless.
"Your name is Erlin?"
"Yes, what instructions does Mr. Zhou have?"
Zhou Heng was too lazy to correct his title, and could be regarded as a guest of honor because his medical skills were reasonable and he had self-knowledge.
"Please help us organize our residence!"
"yes!"
As he said that, he stepped out and took the door with him thoughtfully.
Zhou Heng grabbed the chopsticks and raised his chin at Boss Xue.
"Hurry up and eat!"
Boss Xue grabbed the steamed buns and saw Zhou Heng like a hungry wolf. He started to attack several dishes, but he lost his initial caution. He broke the steamed buns apart, spread them in his palm, and stroked them against the edge, and instantly half of the mutton was lost.
Zhou Heng was stunned. Why was this guy so vigorously eating? His experience in grabbing food in the cafeteria was beyond his ability. He instantly accelerated the speed. In half a cup of tea, four dishes and four steamed buns with two meat and two vegetables had been wiped out.
Zhou Heng burped contentedly, and Boss Xue held the teacup and started drinking it. He looked at Zhou Heng.
"When will I teach me how to make lotus root?"
Zhou Heng glanced at him and said while angrily:
"I was busy all night last night and was shocked and frightened. I wanted to sleep. I changed the medicine for Mr. Zhu in the afternoon. Can we study how to make lotus roots? But you can also buy some materials. Although there is a stove here, we still have to prepare the materials ourselves!"
Boss Xue nodded. Although this place is good, he doesn't want to stay for a day. It's best to be able to learn skills quickly.
"After, then you can make an order and set the weight of the category. I'll prepare it!"
Zhou Heng silenced his mouth, put down the teacup and walked to the desk, picked up a detailed list, blew the ink marks, and was very satisfied with the words of the silky handwriting, and pursed his lips and handed the list to Boss Xue.
Boss Xue looked at it and fortunately he knew the words, but he stretched out his hand to Zhou Heng without leaving.
Zhou Heng frowned and looked at Boss Xue with a vigilant look on his face, full of anger.
"What does it mean? It's fine if the head of the Xue family asked you to eat and drink with him. Why don't you bring you silver for the preparation of the materials?"
