Chapter 36: Treatment of mumps

The county citizens gathered around Gu Xiaoyou to praise him. Gu Xiaoyou felt a little hot, interrupted their praise, and said seriously: "You all wear masks as I say, and I will find a way to make a mask tonight to target the cheeks."

If the medicine is ready, I will post a notice at the door of the medical center."

The county citizens now listened to Gu Xiaoyou's words as an imperial edict and responded one after another: "We will do it. Thank you, Divine Doctor Gu!"

"We all listen to you."

Someone even took the lead in applauding, and there was thunderous applause at the door of the hospital.

"Okay, stop clapping." Gu Xiaoyou waved his hand to stop him.

All the county residents were obedient and quiet.

"Please go to Youlian Paper Shop and notify Boss Zhou to come and ask her to come to me wearing a mask. You can share the masks at the door. You can pay or not. I'm going to see the child first. Thank you.

.”

Gu Xiaoyou finished speaking quickly and hurried back to the hospital.

"Leave it to us, don't worry." County residents shouted several times at Gu Xiaoyou's back.

Other county residents lined up in an orderly manner and paid to buy masks, but soon the masks were sold out.

The enthusiastic county residents put all the money into the counter, closed the door of the medical center and left.

At this time, in a small room in the backyard of the hospital.

Gu Xiaoyou was wiping the boy's arm with liquor. While wiping it, he asked, "Is there anyone else in your family?"

The woman imitated Gu Xiaoyou's example and wiped the boy's feet: "My husband-in-law is working out of town and won't be back until the end of the month. If I knew my son..."

As the woman spoke, she began to choke again. Gu Xiaoyou hurriedly advised: "Don't cry, I will cure him."

The woman quickly wiped away her tears and said sheepishly: "Thank you, Doctor Gu, for making you laugh."

While talking, Gu Xiaoyou finished wiping the white wine on the boy. The boy's originally painful expression suddenly softened a bit, but he still covered his face and groaned a few times from time to time.

The woman touched his forehead, breathed a sigh of relief, and said gratefully: "Thank you so much, Doctor Gu."

"It's okay, the child has been wiped, it's your turn." Gu Xiaoyou took the cotton cloth again, poured some white wine, took the woman's hand and started to wipe it.

The woman quickly took the cotton cloth: "I can do it myself..."

"Okay, wipe your hands, feet, and neck. I'll boil some medicine for you first." Gu Xiaoyou gave some instructions and went to the medicine cabinet to get the medicine.

Since coming to ancient times, Gu Xiaoyou has often prescribed medicine and is familiar with many traditional Chinese medicines. He knows how to prepare a qualified prescription for clearing away heat and detoxifying without searching Baidu.

She grabbed the medicine herself and went to the backyard to brew it.

While Gu Xiaoyou was cooking medicine, Mrs. Zhou hurried over.

"Xiaoyou, I heard from the county residents, are you okay?" Zhou asked out of breath while wearing a mask.

Gu Xiaoyou fanned the stove and comforted her: "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

"You're not wearing a mask, aren't you afraid of infection?" Zhou asked worriedly.

Gu Xiaoyou looked at the medicine in the pot and said casually: "I have received the triple live attenuated vaccine, so I am not afraid of mumps, measles, rubella or other diseases."

"What are you talking about? Xiaoyou, why are you saying something I can't understand again?" Zhou was confused for a moment.

"It's okay, as long as you know I won't be infected."

"Okay, okay, as long as you're okay." Although Zhou didn't understand, she felt relieved as long as she was sure that Gu Xiaoyou was okay.

While they were talking, the medicine was cooked. Zhou went to the kitchen to get a bowl and helped Gu Xiaoyou fill it with medicine.

"Wait for me here, I have something to tell you."

Gu Xiaoyou warned and walked into the small room with two bowls of medicine.

After a while, Gu Xiaoyou came out with two empty bowls. Zhou immediately greeted him and asked with concern: "How are they?"

"The fever is gone, but the swelling still needs to be reduced. Sister Zhou, do we have any cactus here?"

Mashed cactus is the best anti-swelling medicine, so Gu Xiaoyou asked.

"What is a cactus?" Zhou asked doubtfully.

"It's just a kind of plant, green and thorny..."

Gu Xiaoyou described it, and seeing Zhou's confused expression, he simply took out his phone and searched for photos of cactus.

"It's this kind of plant, it's called a cactus."

Gu Xiaoyou showed the photo to Zhou. Zhou looked at it carefully and shook his head: "I have never seen it before."

"Hey, it seems that we can only use a simple cold compress to reduce the swelling." Gu Xiaoyou took back the phone regretfully.

An apologetic expression appeared on Zhou's face: "I'm sorry, I couldn't help."

"It's okay, I have more important things for you."

"Whatever it is, just say it."

"Okay, you go to the school, firstly, to bring Liang'er back, and secondly, to inform the master that the school should not be opened. There may be germs and the children will be infected. Also, go to this address. There is a

The boy may have been infected..." Gu Xiaoyou said seriously.

Mrs. Zhou listened carefully and wrote down what Gu Xiaoyou said one by one. Gu Xiaoyou gave Ms. Zhou a few more masks and asked her to send them to the clerks and workers.

"Okay, Xiaoyou, I'll do it right away." Zhou took the mask and left in a hurry.

After Zhou left, Gu Xiaoyou got some cold water and put it on the boy's face. The boy's expression completely relaxed, he stopped moaning, and he slowly fell asleep.

"Doctor Gu, you are so amazing. My son hasn't slept well for several days. You did it a few times and he fell asleep."

The woman said excitedly, not hiding her admiration and gratitude to Gu Xiaoyou.

"Shh." Gu Xiaoyou made a hushing gesture, and the woman obeyed and silenced her voice.

"It's just suppressed for now. I have to continue to think of a way. I'm going out first. I'll leave this place to you."

Gu Xiaoyou gave some instructions, the woman nodded seriously, and then Gu Xiaoyou opened the door and returned to the yard.

She sat in front of the stove, took out her mobile phone and started Baidu, looking for the most effective way to treat mumps.

"The quickest and most effective way is to take antibiotics. Unfortunately, we don't have them here."

Gu Xiaoyou could only change the search method and find a good way to treat mumps with traditional Chinese medicine.

Baidu quickly gave the answer: Banlangen granules.

Gu Xiaoyou's eyes lit up, and he suddenly felt energetic. He quickly went to the medicine hall of the medical center and started looking for it.

Unfortunately, she searched three times but couldn't find Isatis root.

"Is it possible that there was no isatis root in ancient times, so it wouldn't be so backward?"

Unconvinced, Gu Xiaoyou searched again, but still found nothing.

"No, I have to check again."

Gu Xiaoyou immediately took out his mobile phone and searched Baidu again, only to find out that ancient isatis root is the rhizome of the plant woad, and the roots are usually removed and the leaves are left as raw materials for indigo dyeing cloth.

"I see." Gu Xiaoyou immediately set off and headed to the dyeing workshop.
