Chapter 7 Is this... Serious?
After walking in circles on the streets for a long time, Wang Siqi frowned and walked through several alleys that were only suitable for one person to walk through. Finally, he arrived outside the courtyard of Zhang Yue's house.
It was said to be a small courtyard, and Wang Siqi could see the furnishings in the inner room at a glance.
This shows that it has some age and is very dilapidated.
"Young Master Wang...this is my home."
"Well... let's get your mother checked out first. If it's really the disease I think, I don't dare to delay it any longer."
Zhang Yue nodded hurriedly. Ever since her mother became ill, she had never seen a doctor, but without exception, the doctors couldn't stop shaking their heads when they met her, and some even didn't even bother to feel her pulse.
Standing at the door and taking a look, he said that it could not be cured and asked Zhang Yue to arrange the funeral arrangements early.
This was a blow that Zhang Yue, who was still in her 28th year, could not bear no matter what.
"In recent years, due to my mother's illness, I have squandered all the family wealth, and the family has become a bit messy, which made the prince laugh."
"It's better to go in and see your mother first."
After finishing speaking, Zhang Yue gently pushed open the door of her house.
Wang Siqi seemed a little surprised. His mother was ill in bed all day long, and his door didn't even have a lock on it. Could it be that he wasn't afraid of someone coming in?
It seems that he saw Wang Siqi's doubts.
Zhang Yue slightly gathered a few strands of hair scattered around her temples with her hands, and said with a wry smile: "People say that my mother has an incurable tuberculosis disease. Not only that, but she will also contract it once she interacts with patients. .”
"After one visit, no one around is willing to come back again. Even the thieves who commit petty thefts in the city won't be willing to come back after knowing about it."
After saying this, Wang Siqi couldn't help but be speechless.
In this terrible era, the Zhang Yue family could have a small courtyard in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, so they must have been considered well-off at the time.
If such a disease were to reach the common people, they would probably have to wait for death if they contracted it.
Thinking of this, Wang Siqi couldn't help but feel that he should do something. Standing at the door, he still didn't walk in.
...
"mother!"
As soon as he entered the door, he saw a hemp rope hanging on the beam and a woman hanging on it. As soon as Zhang Yue opened her mouth, Wang Siqi understood that this was her mother. Without any hesitation, Wang Siqi stepped forward and hugged her. Mother said: "Quick, don't be stunned, help me... I feel it's still too late."
Zhang Yue nodded repeatedly.
Then the two of them worked together to bring the mother down.
"Cough...cough! I...am I dead?"
"It's good to die... If I die, I won't cause any trouble to my daughter!"
Zhang’s mother’s words.
Zhang Yue's eyes turned red visibly, "Mom! What kind of words are you talking about? Why can't you think about it so hard!"
"Look! Who I brought back!"
Zhang's mother just woke up.
Still a little confused.
Opening his eyes dimly, he saw Zhang Yue lying next to his bed and Wang Siqi not far away with a thoughtful look on his face.
There was a brief pause for a few seconds.
"Ahem...Okay, this boy is handsome and looks like he comes from a wealthy family. Mom will hand you over to him! Even if I die, I will rest in peace!"
"Mom! What did you say!"
"This is the doctor I brought back here to treat you. What a good family!"
As he spoke, Zhang Yue's face showed quite a few ripples.
Zhang's mother coughed again and said: "Oh! You! Yue'er, my mother has been keeping you by my side since childhood. The most despising thing is that when she is about to die, she has to drag you down. It has caused you even a good life for so many years.
No one else is interested in it."
"Today, there is no personal home!"
"Mom is more worried about you than my mother's illness!"
As she talked, Mother Zhang couldn't help but become excited and coughed several times.
Seeing this, Wang Siqi continued: "Old man! Your daughter is very filial! You, too, have to watch your daughter get married in a glorious manner!"
"How about I come and check on you first?"
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Zhang's mother just shook her head.
"Yue'er... this young lady seems to be pretty good, so I'll leave it to you to decide on the marriage. If something unexpected happens to my mother, don't delay you!"
Wang Siqi shook his head and said: "This disease is not a serious illness."
"I'm sure I can cure it."
Zhang Yue on the side was stunned for a moment after hearing Wang Siqi's words, and then said in disbelief: "Is what Mr. Wang said true?"
Then, Wang Siqi nodded.
Zhang Yue's eyes immediately turned red, and she cried with joy and said to Zhang's mother: "Mom! Did you hear that? This disease can be cured, it can be cured!"
Wang Siqi turned his eyes.
I carefully studied Zhang Mu's symptoms today and compared them with some experiences I heard from later generations. In fact, the best medicine for treating malaria is artemisinin, which has a reputation of saving the world in later generations. However, I want to produce artemisinin in today's Ming Dynasty.
.
It's not impossible, it's just based on the current conditions.
It's nothing more than a fool's dream.
But without artemisinin, it doesn’t mean we are helpless.
After Wang Siqi looked at Zhang's mother, he then turned his attention to the room.
"Miss Zhang Yue, I will leave you a prescription later. You can go to the pharmacy to get the medicine according to the prescription. Take Pinellia ternata, Bupleurum, Scutellaria baicalensis, Changshan, Caoguo, licorice and ginger."
"As for the dosage, I will get some paper and ink later and I will write it down for you."
Prescription! Zhang Yue was stunned.
Prescriptions represent hope.
Before Zhang Yue could react, Wang Siqi continued: "Your mother has not been ill for a long time. She only needs to take medicine on time, drink plenty of water, rest in bed, and regularly light mugwort in the room to kill mosquitoes.
It won’t take long to get relief.”
After finishing speaking, Zhang Yue was completely impressed by Wang Siqi. She could never think of what she had done on the street just now.
I will see this handsome young man in front of me.
Become a disciple!
.....
Thinking of this, Zhang Yue couldn't help but secretly say, now everyone in the streets thinks that Mr. Wang is just a prodigal son with no knowledge or skills.
But only she knows.
Mr. Wang has real talent and learning.
And now he has saved his mother’s life!
"Young Master Wang! This little girl really has nothing to repay for such a great kindness, so why not..."
Wait! How about??
What's worse? Looking at the girl in front of me, she has a delicate appearance, and her face looks like this without the blessing of Hex's black technology. In addition, her family background was not bad at first, even though she looks haggard now, and her behavior is unremarkable.
It also means that everyone is a lady.
This was undoubtedly a huge shock to Wang Siqi, who had just traveled through time and came out of the mansion on the first day.
"Young Master...it's getting late. Why don't we have a meal here today? It can be considered as a little lady's way of expressing our feelings."
Wu De was away, and Wang Siqi suddenly felt a little hungry.
He nodded immediately and said, "Okay..."
"Well... little lady, go get ready now."
"By the way! What shall we eat today?",
Zhang Yue smiled sweetly and immediately responded: "Master Wang, wait a moment, today I will eat the noodles made by the little lady myself!"
