Ning'er pursed her lips slightly, "There is still one month."“...”So fastAn Xuetang chuckled, "Of course, I never lie. However, under these current conditions, performing a surgery like this carries a significant risk. After all, there's no sterile environment here."
Mo Junyi raised an eyebrow. "Sterile environment"
"Um... I mean, it's incredibly, incredibly clean." An Xuetang felt like she had done her best. After all, she didn't know how else to explain it. People these days not only didn't know what bacteria were, they didn't even understand concepts like oxygen or air.
Mo Jun Yi nodded dazedly, "So that means, to do an open surgery on someone you need to find a place that is extra, extra clean so the chances of them surviving are higher"
"Exactly."
Two people discussed in the operating room for a whole morning until Ding Hua came back and said that the medical clinic side was already ready and could be opened. Then An Xue Tang brought Mo Jun Yi into the city.
Xiao Liu and Xiao Li are both very diligent. They have been studying hard these days, and they learn things taught by An Xue Tang very quickly.
However, An Xuetang did not teach them how to perform surgery. Medicine like this is still best kept secret here, lest they be mistaken for monsters.
TCM is relatively conservative; they are only responsible for diagnosing illnesses and prescribing medicine. That's all.
"Ah Tang sister, I... I'm a little nervous." Xiao Liu was sitting in the examination room at this time. When she saw An Xue Tang walk in, she excitedly spoke.
An Xuetang walked up to her and patted her shoulder, "There's nothing to be nervous about, relax."
Xiaoli bit her lip, her palms were sweating.
An Xuetang saw her like this and couldn't help but smile, "Today, I estimate that no one will come. After all, our medical hall's predecessor had a bad reputation, and everyone has a poor impression of our medical hall. Not many people will come to the door in the early stage."
Xiao Liu nodded. "Big Brother Ding has already told us this. It's my fault for the previous young master. If it wasn't for his clinic's business being so bad, it wouldn't have come to this. Actually, the old master's medical skills are very impressive, and many people believe in him. It's a pity that he has such good medical skills, but the young master hasn't learned anything."
"To study medicine, one needs not only hard work but also a certain talent. Perhaps he just doesn't have the talent for medicine."
"Ah Tang elder sister, why don't you see patients yourself"
An Xuetang raised an eyebrow. "Because I won't be staying here forever. In a while, I'll have to leave and go find my husband."
She also wanted to spend her life peacefully with Mo Yunjing in this remote place where the heavens were high and the emperor far away, but unfortunately, she couldn't. Because of her family background, it was simply not allowed.
An Xuetang was here guiding them on how to handle the unexpected incident and was about to leave when a patient showed up.
Seeing that Xiao Liu was a bit nervous, An Xue Tang sat beside her and accompanied her during the diagnosis.
This is Xiaoliu's first patient.
The visitor was a woman in her forties. Her complexion was sallow and she looked very haggard.
Xiaoliu glanced at An Xuetang, who nodded to her, giving her a bit of confidence. She then took the woman's pulse and asked her questions.
The final conclusion is that this woman has simple endometrial hyperplasia, with prolonged menstruation. Sometimes it lasts for a whole month.
Her complexion was sallow and sickly pale, a result of the anemia caused by her constant bleeding.
After Xiaoliu's diagnosis, he looked at An Xuetang and hoped she would examine the woman again. He was afraid he had made a mistake.
An Xuetang grinned, and under the expectant gaze of the woman, she took her pulse again. The diagnosis was exactly the same as Xiao Liu's.
Only then did Xiao Liu breathe a sigh of relief and immediately wrote out a prescription for the woman.
Xiaoli was in charge of fetching medicine and sending the women away.
An Xuetang looked at them dividing the work clearly, showing a satisfied smile. "You see, this is actually a very simple thing. As long as you are careful and brave enough, you will find that there is nothing difficult about it."
Xiao Liu and Xiao Li looked at each other, nodding heavily. "Yes, Ah Tang sister,"
The clinic's affairs were finally on the right track. An Xue Tang gave a couple more instructions before going to check on the business of the earthenware rabbits and ducks.
In recent days, the few stalls have added earthen chicken, and all three kinds of food are sold out every day.
When An Xuetang arrived, they had already begun to pack up. Seeing An Xuetang approach, they bowed, "Miss, why are you here"
"There's nothing going on at the clinic, I just came to check."
At this moment, a woman exclaimed excitedly, "Miss, our business is exceptionally good. Many people are complaining that we don't make more every day."
An Xuetang curled her lips, "This is enough. In a month, we'll increase every item by twenty more. You can't become fat by eating one bite. Business, you know, it takes time."
The woman didn't understand the reasons either, but now she completely trusted An Xuetang. In her eyes, An Xuetang was a lucky charm, accomplishing anything she set her mind to, very capable indeed.
"By the way, have Ding Hua and Zi Ling been here"
"Miss, Ding Butler and the young master came by, but the young master is bothering Ding Butler to buy him some treats again."
An Xuetang chuckled, she had to admit, this Mo Junyi was quite the gourmand. At the sight of anything delicious, he couldn't resist wanting to try it.
Since Ding Hua was with him, An Xue Tang didn't have much to worry about. She turned and went to the pork stall. She wanted to see if there were any pig intestines. She hadn't eaten pig intestines since coming here, and now she thought about it, she was a little hungry for them.
She had just reached the pork stall when she saw the butcher looking rather excited. "Miss, you're finally here," he said.
"..."
An Xuetang was a little confused. She just came to buy some meat, why was he so excited
This butcher was burly and round, with a face full of meat. His eyes seemed to glow, staring straight at An Xuetang, which made her raise an eyebrow. “Do you have pork offal here”
The butcher was so entranced by An Xuetang's voice that he felt his bones were melting. He didn't pay attention to what she said at all, so he didn't reply for a moment.
He had been smitten with An Xue Tang's beauty and spirit from their first encounters. Upon learning she was from Ling Shui Village, he inquired about her through his connections. When he discovered she had been sold to a cripple, he felt a pang of sympathy.
But he was also somewhat relieved, since she had married a useless man, perhaps he still had a chance
An Xuetang saw him staring straight at her like that, she looked down at her own clothes, there was nothing wrong with them.
She had to continue speaking and asked, "Big brother, do you have pork intestines here"
The butcher then came to his senses and nodded. "Yes, yes there is, but miss, don't ask for pig intestines, I'll give you a piece of pork leg instead. Pork leg is more delicious."
"... "
An Xuetang was taken aback for a moment, then shook her head and smiled, "I really don't need it, I want pig intestines." a tight expression.Her sixth sense told her that Shuangshuang was, as she had guessed, the informant planted by others among them.And there's Fu Er, she thinks perhaps Fu Er hasn't played any tricks...
