Just frown
In the next few days, Fang Yuanzhi lived steadily in the Xu Mansion. The maids and mothers-in-law of the Xu Mansion were attentive to her, and Mrs. Gu also came to visit several times a day.
Xu Chun visits it every morning and then leaves.
On this day, Fang Yuanzhi couldn't help but ask: "How is the disaster relief going now?"
Xu Chun, who originally turned to leave, turned around and said silently: "The prefect Xing has raised more than 1 million hu of grain and is appeasing the victims."
"Dr. Zhu, have you seen the injuries on your body?"
"I've seen it and applied medicine. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Fang Yuanzhi had just finished breakfast when Orange came over and her eyes were a little red.
"Miss, it turns out you are really in Xu Mansion! Qingshan just came back today. We thought you and he were still at Qianhusuo. Who knew Qingshan said you were washed away by the flood... I want to go back to Xu Mansion to ask for help.
They looked for you, but they said you were in the house..."
Fang Yuanzhi felt a little emotional and asked: "How is it outside now?"
Chenghong frowned and said: "It's not very good. The streets are very chaotic. Our medical hall used to have twenty patients a day, which was considered good. But now there are long lines of people to see the doctors, and the door can't be closed until midnight. Doctor Zhong is worried."
Tired and sick..."
Fang Yuanzhi soon understood. Continuous heavy rains, a large number of homeless people, hunger and cold, and illness were inevitable.
Even though he was as strong as a tiger cub, wasn't he still seriously ill?
Fang Yuanzhi pondered for a while and said, "Go and report to Mrs. Gu. I'll go home first and come back another day to say thank you."
Mrs. Gu came to see her off in person: "It's time to rest for a few more days..."
Fang Yuanzhi smiled and said: "The medical clinic is very busy, so I have to go back for a consultation. Anyway, I'm not tired just sitting..."
After leaving the house, Fang Yuanzhi realized that she had been living in the outer courtyard of the Xu Mansion. Because the injury on her leg was not healed, Fang Yuanzhi limped and supported Chenghong, and took the carriage arranged by the Xu Mansion back to Jimin Medical Hall.
Doctors lined up in a long queue outside the medical hall.
Fang Yuanzhi didn't say much after getting off the carriage. She sat in the consulting room and began to look at the patients one by one.
After seeing twenty or thirty patients, Fang Yuanzhi discovered that 90% of the patients had symptoms of cold and wind, and most of them complained that there were no utensils for boiling medicine, which was very inconvenient.
Fang Yuanzhi stood up and skipped to the door of the medical hall. She looked at the long queue of patients still queuing outside the door, and she quickly began to think twice.
Starting at noon, Bai Hu set up several large jars to brew medicine in the backyard.
For those who were diagnosed with wind-cold symptoms by Fang Yuanzhi, there was no need to prescribe medicine. They only needed to take a small piece of paper to get a bowl of medicinal soup. After drinking, they put the bowl down and left. It was very convenient.
At the beginning, some patients complained: This way of seeing a doctor is too sloppy! You don’t even prescribe a prescription, so who knows if your diagnosis is correct?
Fang Yuanzhi simply hung up the banner and asked Qingshan to inform the patients who were still waiting in line: Jimin Medical Hall does not charge for medical treatment.
Most of the patients were excited and excited, and some even shouted: "Jimin Medical Hall is indeed Jimin! Well done to the boss!"
In this way, seeing a doctor and getting medicine was much faster. But White Tiger, Orange Red and Qingshan were very tired.
Fang Yuanzhi thought for a while and asked Chenghong to go to Xu Mansion to ask Mrs. Gu to borrow some people.
When it was almost dark, Fang Yuanzhi was a little dumbfounded.
The queue waiting to see a doctor outside the medical hall not only did not shorten, but also got longer. The queue went back and forth for several times, almost blocking the street traffic!
When I inquired about it, I found out that many patients who had been treated in other medical clinics came to queue up after hearing that treatment here was free and medicines could be taken on site.
Fang Yuanzhi had no choice but to smile bitterly, and worked with everyone at Jimin Medical Hall until late at night before finally closing the stall.
Fang Yuanzhi rubbed her head, which had been tense all day, and took the crutches given to her by Xu Mansion, then went to bed and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Chenghong came over and said that there were a lot of patients queuing up outside the door, waiting for the door to open.
Fang Yuanzhi had no choice but to finish the breakfast brought by Chenghong in a few mouthfuls and went to the clinic early.
Baihu, Qingshan and others were very helpful. They didn't get much rest after closing the door last night. Instead, they went to prepare enough medicinal materials overnight.
For several days in a row, the medicinal gas of Jimin Medical Hall was boiling, people were coming and going in an endless stream, and the smell of boiled Chinese medicine drifted to the street.
Fang Yuanzhi felt like she was about to be fumigated into a herbal scent.
Gradually, the number of patients queuing up became less and less, and some local residents also came to see the doctor. In the evening, two people in government uniforms also came to see the doctor, coughing and chatting.
"I heard that Jimin Medical Hall is the property of the Xu family. No wonder they are so benevolent! Ahem..."
"No, I heard rumors in the government that our prefect regrets not marrying a rich man to the Xu family!"
Fang Yuanzhi tilted his pen, and the half-written prescription was discarded. He pulled out another piece of paper and rewrote it.
"That's for sure! The Xu family took the lead in donating money and materials during this disaster relief operation. How much it helped you! It's much better than other families..."
When Dr. Zhong, a patient in the medical hall, could be busy by himself, Fang Yuanzhi took Bai Hu and others out of the city, carrying several large jars and medicinal materials.
Many tents were set up outside the city, and many large porridge pots were boiling hot. The victims who had originally blocked the city gate of Suzhou had been evacuated one by one and placed in the tents.
Fang Yuanzhi had already asked Qingshan to come and investigate, found an area with dense tents, and started setting up vats to brew medicine and tables to sit and treat.
Qingshan shouted in a male voice: "Free medical treatment! Free medicine!"
Not long after, people queuing up at the clinic table.
Not long after, someone who looked like an official came over and asked, "Where are you from?"
Qingshan came forward and bowed: "This little man is from Jimin Medical Hall on Guanqian Street. Our doctors are here for free consultation."
The official frowned and was about to speak when Qingshan added insightfully: "It is the property of the Xu family..."
The officer suddenly realized it, and a smile appeared on his face: "Xu family, come to see us if you have any business!"
The officer maintained order in the team and then left.
Qingshan made some inquiries and told Fang Yuanzhi: "The government originally organized a free clinic for doctors, but we didn't sign up. Now the government is investigating."
Fang Yuanzhi was slightly stunned: "Then hurry up and sign up."
It seems that you must be allowed to do good deeds in order to be honest, otherwise the officials will doubt your legitimacy.
After several consecutive days of consultation, the rainy weather gradually turned sunny. Under the scorching sun, the weather became even more muggy.
At noon that day, there were far fewer patients coming for consultation. Fang Yuanzhi took a break to twist his sore neck and rest his eyes while looking into the distance.
There was a group of people walking and looking in the distance. The person at the front was wearing a crimson official uniform, which seemed to be the magistrate Xing. The person next to him was wearing a gray robe, tall and tall, very young, and he stood out among a group of official servants.
.
Fang Yuanzhi recognized at a glance that it was Xu Chun, whom he had not seen for many days.
She quickly lowered her head and looked at the next patient.
Not long after, Magistrate Xing came over with someone.
