Chapter 33 Repaying Resentment with Virtue

"Are you also a doctor? Can you help me take a look at this child?"

The woman was none other than Zhao De's daughter Zhao Wanqing. She came back with her child to visit her relatives this time. Unexpectedly, just after taking two bites of lunch, the child suddenly became ill, so she brought her here because she was busy with work.

Ji Youyi was about to untie the swaddling clothes, but Liu Meizheng immediately pulled her over to prevent her from checking.

She turned her eyes at Ji Youyi in disgust and said, "Girl, who is she a doctor? Don't show her blindly to others."

After that, she shouted at the top of her lungs: "Doctor Liu, is Dr. Liu at home? Doctor Liu."

"What's the fuss about?" Dr. Liu was woken up, opened the door and came out. His clothes were crooked and his expression was very bad. "What's wrong?"

"Doctor, please help me take care of the child."

Zhao Wanqing was focused on her children and had no thoughts about Liu Meizheng's actions just now.

Doctor Liu untied the swaddling clothes and found that the child had a red rash on his face, his lips were blue, and he was panting slightly. He probed his forehead and found that the temperature was very high.

"It looks like he has eaten poison, doesn't he?" He checked the child's pulse. His heartbeat was very fast and his pulse was chaotic.

Ji Youyi stood aside and saw it too. She didn't say what the people here said, but looking at the child's appearance, it was obvious that he was allergic.

She interjected and asked: "Did the child drink breast milk before? Is this the case?"

"I have always fed my children, and this has never happened before." Zhao Wanqing replied in a panic.

If it’s not lactose intolerance, it’s something to do with what you eat. “Has your child eaten anything fishy not long ago? For example, fish or shrimp or something?”

After saying this, Zhao De and Zhao Wanqing looked at Liu Meizheng.

Liu Meizheng was displeased, "Why do you ask these things? Does it have anything to do with the child's illness? Please enlighten me."

She pushed Ji Youyi away and came over, "Doctor, how is my granddaughter?"

Doctor Liu took a step back and glanced at her coldly. "I hope you will answer well what my apprentice asked just now."

After Zhao Wanqing hesitated for a moment, she confessed: "My mother fed the child some shrimps. They are all fresh and good."

"Then there is something wrong. The child has a weak stomach and cannot eat these things at all. It is an allergy." Ji Youyi twitched the corner of her mouth and asked Doctor Liu for instructions: "Master?"

"Youyi, come on." Dr. Liu saw what she meant and got out of the way. "Guys, come in with me. The child also needs to be put down for treatment."

After several people entered the room, Zhao Wanqing put the child on the couch, while Ji Youyi took out her needle bag and disinfected it.

Liu Mei was watching her take action and shouted dissatisfied, "What's wrong, doctor, do you want her to be treated?"

Doctor Liu said: "Since Youyi has seen the problem, she must be sure of it. Don't worry, Youyi's medical skills are not bad."

When Liu Meizheng heard this, she immediately quit, "No, how can someone like her heal people?"

Doctor Liu thought she was doubting Ji Youyi's medical skills, so he patiently explained, but he didn't expect that she was completely biased.

"Madam, you can't speak like that." Dr. Liu was displeased, "The doctor speaks based on his ability, why can't Youyi be cured?"

Liu Meizheng is no longer disgusted, but disgusted. "I can't let her see it anyway."

"Mom, please stop making trouble here and let the doctor treat you."

Seeing that her child was sick and weak, Zhao Wanqing felt anxious and took Liu Meizheng aside to complain.

After Ji Youyi disinfected, she glanced at the mother and daughter aside, shook her head and administered the injection to the child. Soon the child's complexion became much better, the red skin receded a little, and the restless situation gradually stabilized.

Come down.

She waited for a while to see that it was almost done, and then took off the needle.

"The child is still young and should not eat other things. I will prepare some for you to drink. You feed the child and the child can absorb it." Ji Youyi went to the side and began to write the prescription. At the same time, she asked, "Don't eat randomly during this period."

Don’t eat greasy and meaty food. Try to keep it as light as possible, eat some meat and drink less soup.”

"That's not possible. If you don't drink soup, how can your child get nutritious milk?" Liu Mei was retorting hurriedly: "You yourself have children, don't you know that you need to drink soup to breastfeed?"

"This is a misunderstanding. If you have a lot of breast milk, you don't need to drink soup at all, otherwise it will burden the mother's body. The milk blockage will make the mother's body uncomfortable, and in severe cases, she may have a fever."

Ji Youyi patiently tried to persuade her, saying: "You are also from a mother, haven't you ever experienced this kind of suffering? I will definitely not harm their mother and daughter."

However, prejudiced people simply don’t want to hear this.

Liu Meizheng didn't say anything, and she thought her words were farts.

However, Zhao Wanqing was grateful and said, "Thank you, doctor."

Ji Youyi wrote the prescription, while Dr. Liu stood aside and nodded with satisfaction. This was the first time he saw her write. She had beautiful hairpin-shaped regular script in her hand, but she had not practiced for a few years and couldn't write well.

After she finished writing, she put down her pen, looked at the family of three, and said a few more words.

"The child is still young, so remember not to feed her randomly. In addition, the child can eat after weaning. At the beginning, eat less salt and hard foods. Do not feed mouth-to-mouth, and do not chew things for the child.

We adults have no taboos. Children are small and weak, so we must pay attention."

"Yes, yes, I understand." Zhao Wanqing nodded repeatedly at the side, and it seemed that she had written it down carefully.

Liu Meizheng, on the other hand, didn't look so good after hearing about mouth-to-mouth feeding.

Ji Youyi pretended not to see her change and continued: "For these first few medicines, do you need to get them from us? Or should you go out and buy them yourself?"

Zhao Wanqing was worried about her child and estimated that she would not leave for a while, so she said, "It's better to stay here, please doctor."

Ji Youyi didn't refuse, took the prescription and mixed it for three days.

"Just drink this medicine three times a day before meals. I will prepare it for you for three days first. You can make your own decisions later. If your child has any problems, please come to me."

Zhao De on the side took the medicine and said, "Okay, okay, thank you doctor, how much does this medicine cost?"

"Fifteen charges for medical consultation, and twenty-four charges for these, totaling thirty-nine charges."

The price she gave was the most reasonable price. A pair of potions cost only eight cents.

However, it was this price that aroused Liu Meizheng's dissatisfaction.

"You, what kind of medicine are you here? It's so expensive, isn't it a scam?" She shouted, snatching the medicinal materials from Zhao De's hand and throwing them on the ground.

Everyone was shocked by her behavior.

Zhao Wanqing came back to her senses and pulled her with an embarrassed expression.

Zhao De leaned over with difficulty on crutches to pick up the medicine. He took out a bunch of copper plates and handed them to Ji Youyi. He apologized repeatedly and said, "I'm so sorry, doctor. I'm an old woman who doesn't know the market. Please keep this money."

Ji Youyi counted the money and returned the extra five cents.
