Chapter 55
Zhao Wenying, who had never seen such a scene before, was even more frightened, and kept saying: "What to do, what to do, what to do about this?"

Li Cuizhen was also quite frightened, but the mother was able to calm down, and this time she didn't ask others to massage her youngest son herself.

But this time, it was not as easy as before.After kneading for more than ten minutes, Xiao Wu also cried for this time.In the end, I don't know whether the pressing and rubbing worked, or crying and twisting took a lot of strength. In short, the crying became smaller and smaller.

"Okay, I finally stopped crying." Zhao Mingyu wiped his forehead, sweating from crying.

Zhao Wenying kept staring at it, and the more she stared, the more wrong she became: "Mom, it's not right, why do I feel that Xiao Wu's expression is wrong."

When he was born, his wrinkled face became a little old man, and his skin was red and puffy. After these two days, the wrinkles on his little face were stretched out, turning white from the inside out.It's just that the surface is still looking red.

Most of the day was spent on this little brother, and Zhao Wenying could tell any changes at a glance.It seems that there is no sound, like falling asleep, but the breathing is much weaker, not the thin and long one when falling asleep, and the redness on the face also fades quickly, this is definitely not a normal phenomenon.

Li Cuizhen also noticed her yelling, and immediately said nervously: "Xiao Wu is crying too much and has no energy, maybe he's still not well, get him a hot towel and make a fuss."

"Don't wait, go to the hospital." Zhao Wenduo stopped Zhao Wenying who was about to get hot water towels, and said decisively.

This time the crying was a few degrees heavier than before, and there was only an hour or so in between, so it was obviously serious.I couldn't help crying, my face turned pale, and I still couldn't find the reason. If this continues, let alone how the children are, the adults will already be full of foam.

"Ah, I'm going to the hospital, do I need it?" Seeing her youngest son crying like this, Zhao Mingyu was also very anxious, but when she heard that she was going to the hospital, she couldn't help but hesitate.

At the hospital, people only go there when they are seriously ill. If ordinary people have a headache and fever, they can just take a tablet of medicine, and anyone who is fine will go there.Out of this kind of thinking, when I heard that I was going to the hospital, I felt panic in my bones.

Li Cuizhen didn't immediately nod her head in agreement. In her opinion, it's perfectly normal for Xiaoyueke's children to have problems.

According to the local custom, only the baby who has passed the [-]th day will officially notify relatives and friends, which means that the newborn has stopped.For example, babies who are just a few days old are particularly prone to illness. If they are not careful, they can catch a cold. If the family members do not have the awareness to seek medical treatment, they will be dragged to death.Also because of this, the infant mortality rate is very high.

The children in the village were all young and old, and no one rushed to the hospital when they had a headache. Most of them used some local methods to drink some herbal medicine, and then wiped their bodies, and they were almost healed.If you really can't make it through, you should go like this, because you don't have this child in your life.

If any one of the four sisters were changed, Li Cuizhen would directly veto it without hesitation. First, warm her stomach with hot water, and then go to the field to grab nepeta grass and boil medicinal soup to rub on her body at dawn. Get rid of the plague, and the disease will be cured.Several children were also raised in this way, none of them were short of weight, and they all grew up a lot.

The reason why it was so late was because Xiao Wu was a hard-earned kid, and she was also worried that if something happened, she was extra careful.

It's not just her, who in the family doesn't take this little one very seriously? The inherent patriarchal thinking is one aspect. Caring for cubs is not only the instinct of animals, but also most human beings have this common problem.

For such a small baby, I was afraid of being squeezed if I hugged it a little bit harder. Just now, when I cried out in pain, my two little feet were scratched, so I can imagine that it was a lot of pain.

Zhao Wenlan, who has always been soft and weak and rarely makes up her own mind, said: "Mom, just listen to the third child, and take Xiao Wu to the hospital quickly. Waiting like this is not an option. If there is something wrong, it will drag the doctor. It will be too late if there is another problem." If there is an eventuality, it will be too late to cry.

With her successful assist, Li Cuizhen wrapped up the child without any hesitation, and was about to leave.At this time, she was also a little confused, and she also forgot what was going on with her. All kinds of what-ifs flashed through her mind, and she was also frightened by herself.

"Mom, don't go." As the eldest sister, Zhao Wenying naturally rushed to the front, put on the padded clothes in twos and twos, and took the baby from Li Cuizhen's arms.

"Yeah, mom, you can't blow the cold wind, there's me, the eldest sister, and the third child." Zhao Wenlan saw Zhao Wenduo was also cleaning up silently beside her, and knew that she was going too, so she said.

Zhao Wenduo looked at her slender appearance, he could tidy up a collar for half a minute, don't look sick all over there, she hasn't gone anywhere yet.He directly refused: "I don't need you, the two of us are enough."

"Don't, the three of us take turns holding Xiao Wu, and whoever gets tired can take a break, so that we can walk faster."

But forget it, it’s good if you can understand by yourself, and you plan to take the child for a night walk, so don’t throw you down again.

"Second, don't go there either. You have to go to work tomorrow morning, so I'm afraid you won't be able to make it if you run back and forth." Li Cuizhen interrupted.

The whole family knew what kind of attribute Zhao Wenlan was, and they were never ready to beat her to contribute to this aspect.

"That, that—" Zhao Wenlan wanted to fight, but she also knew her own shortcomings. She couldn't find a convincing reason at the beginning, and finally lost, and said in a weak voice: "Okay, I will not going."

After rejecting her second daughter, Li Cuizhen was not completely relieved.The two girls were holding a sick child in their arms. This black light was in a mess, and there was no solid person who fell down after slipping and slipping.

"Zhao Mingyu, you go with me too, don't you have to be alone to turn on the flashlight? It's just the two of them who have to hug Xiao Wu, so they can't take care of them."

"Ah, I'm going too?" Zhao Mingyu didn't expect to be called by name, so she pointed to her nose and asked in surprise.

He is not the same as Zhao Wenlan, he has always been ill and no one expects him, and he is just ignored.Zhao Wenlan wanted her to come, but was also worried that it would not be easy to do so. Generally speaking, she might be slightly better than him in terms of choice.

But this time everything was reversed, Li Cuizhen abandoned Zhao Wenlan and called him instead.

"Why don't you go? What Zhao Chenghui passed on was the ancestor of your Zhao family, and the successor was the generation of the Zhao family. You only know that you want a son, why can't you accompany him to see him when he is sick?"

Zhao Chenghui was Xiao Wu's nickname, and he had chosen his name long before he was born.It can be seen how much Zhao Mingyu is looking forward to the arrival of this son.

Li Cuizhen gave out all the names of the child, so it can be seen that she was very angry with Zhao Mingyu. The father of the youngest son was sick, not to mention standing forward, and shrinking his neck back to hide.It's okay to not be able to take care of family affairs, but now there is still no strong and reliable father, which makes people very annoyed.If it wasn't for being afraid of the wind during the confinement period, she couldn't go out so far, and she would leave after holding the baby, and she would still need to spend these words with him here.

Zhao Mingyu also cherishes his youngest son very much, it's not that he doesn't want to accompany him to see a doctor.As the person he has been taken care of all year round, no one points at him when things happen, which also made him used to being the one who stays behind the house.

He didn't get used to being included in the main camp for a while, so he asked a few more questions reflexively, which led to a lesson from Li Cui.Immediately, it became a shriveled eggplant beaten by Shuang, and dared not speak any more.

While the two of you were coming and talking, the sisters over there had already dressed, checked the items they needed to bring with them, looked at each other and walked out with the younger brother in their arms.

They didn't go to wait for Zhao Mingyu who was hurriedly putting on a padded jacket. For the two of them, it really didn't matter whether he went or not. The two of them could complete the task of seeing a doctor very well.One more is not more, and one less is not less.

"Wait, daddy, daddy will give you a flashlight—" Zhao Mingyu held the flashlight stick between his hands, reached out to lift the cotton cover on the side of the boot, and hurriedly chased after him, trotting forward twice before putting on the shoes.

The village is three or four miles away from the town, and it usually takes a quick quarter of an hour to get there.During the day, the sight line is good, and the potholes on the road can be bypassed.It was pitch black at night, and the flashlights were limited, so they walked slowly. The two sisters took turns to rest, and they walked for more than 20 minutes when they reached the town.

There are two hospitals in Qiushui Town, one large and one small. The large hospital is a second-level hospital in the county, and the small hospital is the township health center.The former is located on West Street, while the latter is closer to the center of the town and closer to the village.

Compared with newly built large hospitals, small hospitals are more well-known.In the consciousness of the villagers, they go to the health center to get an injection if they feel uncomfortable, and they have no concept of checking photos for laboratory tests.

Coupled with the geographical location, it takes an extra 400 meters to go to a large hospital. Generally, they will choose to see a doctor in a small hospital for treatment.

Especially some older people are used to going to familiar places to see doctors they know.The several floors of a large hospital, just the division of departments is enough for them to distinguish for a long time, and they can't tell the difference when they step in, let alone see a doctor and take medicine.

As soon as the father and daughter walked into the town street, Zhao Mingyu planned to tell them to turn around and go to the small hospital, but just stopped, Zhao Wenduo knocked them down before they could speak.

"Go directly to West Street, there is no one in the small hospital." This location is just the fork in the road leading to the two hospitals, and he doesn't even need to speak, he will know what it means when he pauses.

"Oh, that's right, I forgot." Zhao Mingyu slapped his head, thinking only of the convenience of the small hospital, forgetting that people get off work at five o'clock in the afternoon, and there is no one there in the middle of the night.

In this way, even if you don't want to go to a big hospital, you have to go.

Five minutes later, several people entered the hospital.

The fluorescent lights in the empty hall illuminated the concrete floor, and the cold wind blew in through the cracks in the glass doors, bringing chills all over the body.

In the pharmacy opposite the main entrance, a doctor wearing a white trigram was standing in front of a row of medicine racks and taking medicine from the list.

"It's——Doctor Wang Guoqing?!" Zhao Mingyu leaned close to the glass window, widened his eyes and carefully identified it.

Hearing the sound, Bai Dagua turned his head and glanced at Zhao Mingyu: "Are you—?" He obviously didn't recognize him.Someone who can directly point out his name should know him.

Zhao Mingyu hurriedly said: "I'm Zhao Mingyu from Bailangli Village. Doctor Wang and your medical team went to the countryside to see me before. Do you have any impression?"

"Is it Bailangli Village? I have a little impression." Wang Guoqing nodded. At that time, he was still in the county hospital, and his family hadn't been registered in Qiushui Town yet.It was just a trip to the countryside for medical treatment. I didn't expect to come to this place again, but it was really destined.

This is obviously a polite remark. As a doctor, you deal with so many doctors and patients every day, especially when you go to the countryside for free clinics. The villagers line up one after another.But pull it down, don't take people's politeness seriously.

Apparently, Zhao Wenying also understood the meaning of it, so she didn't give Zhao Mingyu a chance to make further connections, so she raised her arms and handed the baby in her arms forward: "Doctor Wang, my little brother is sick, please show me look."

At this time, the doctors are almost all-round, regardless of whether they are pediatrics or adults, they can take a look at them, especially the doctor on duty at night, he is the only doctor in the whole hospital at the moment, and he has to see all kinds of patients. Well, not only is he prescribing prescriptions for seeing a doctor, isn't he also the one who grabs the medicine.That is to say, he couldn't reach out for the injection and injection, so a specialized nurse came to do it.

Wang Guoqing came out of the pharmacy and returned to the consultation room, asked about some symptoms, looked up and down Xiao Wu in the blanket, touched the body parts lightly, especially the various parts of the stomach while watching the reaction.

At this time, Xiao Wu was extremely quiet, if it wasn't for the lack of blood on his face and his weak breath, people would think that this is a very healthy and well-behaved little doll.

A doctor is a doctor, and he was not fooled by this performance.On the contrary, the more he checked, the more serious his face became.

Before Zhao's father and daughter could ask about the situation, they hurried out, entered the medicine room again, quickly picked out a few bottles of medicine, and called the female nurse on duty.

The nurse is also an experienced veteran. She mixed the medicine in three to two minutes, and took it into the consulting room.

The blood vessels of a three-day-old baby are very thin and difficult to find. The nurse pressed the left and right foreheads twice, spotted a bulging needle, and inserted it. The rubber dropper quickly returned blood, and it was effective. of a stitch.

Until this moment, the few people in the consultation room were relieved.

"Doctor Wang, what's wrong with my son? Why is he still on a bottle?" In Zhao Mingyu's understanding, only those who are seriously ill will come to the hospital, and those who are too sick to endanger their lives will be put on a bottle.

The youngest son had just arrived here, Doctor Wang just looked at him and put a bottle on him without saying a word, he should give an explanation for what happened.

Not only him, but Zhao Wenying and Zhao Wenduo were also waiting for the diagnosis. They were both startled by Wang Guoqing's heavy expression just now. Seeing him coming and going in a hurry, no one opened their mouths without eyes. , it was obvious that he didn't want to be wasted time so he kept silent.

Wang Guoqing sat on the stool and did not directly answer Zhao Mingyu's question. Looking at the vacant seat opposite, there should be another doctor attending the consultation during the day, and said slowly: "More than two months ago, one of my colleagues received a A two-month-old patient had an abnormal reaction after being fed a half-cup of milk due to insufficient milk from his mother. He had difficulty breathing when he was delivered, and died before he could be treated in time."

While Zhao Mingyu was sighing, he couldn't help but asked in surprise and doubt: "Why did something go wrong after eating a pulp?" The two-month-old baby has already passed the first few days when the mortality rate is high, so it should be easy to care for is.

The paste in the two populations is flour and water, boiled over a low fire to form a transparent paste, which is generally used to paste quilts, paste walls, and paste couplets.Some family conditions are limited and people who cannot afford milk powder will use it to feed their babies.

The reason why Zhao Mingyu didn't find it strange was because it was not uncommon for children to be fed porridge. Many families in the village did this.

Li Cuizhen was young when she gave birth to her eldest and second child, and she still had enough milk.By the time of the third child, it was a little too strong.The fourth child ate for half a year, and after that, he was also fed scallops for two months, until he was able to eat.

Although I know that it is not so good to feed my children with milk, but I have no choice if I can't buy milk powder.The native method passed down from the older generation is used by everyone who loves it, and no major problems have been heard.

Wang Guoqing seemed to have expected it a long time ago, nodded his head and said: "Yes, it's the cause of the pulp. Children's gastrointestinal function is not fully developed, and it is difficult to absorb flour well. Some even have diarrhea, constipation, and allergies. Waiting for some symptoms, especially newborn babies, are more prone to rejection. That child lost his life because of this.”

"Doctor Wang, do you think this has anything to do with my brother's illness?" Zhao Wenduo realized that Wang Guoqing was not just citing cases, there should be some kind of connection.

Zhao Wenying followed closely as if she was afraid of being misunderstood: "My brother was fed milk powder, and he was not given pulp."

This was already known during the previous consultation, and Wang Guoqing also explained: "The reason why I mentioned that child is just to let you know that every child has a different physique, and the same food, Some children are fine after eating it, but some children will have problems after eating it, which is what the common people often say is dissatisfaction."

Zhao Mingyu understood a little: "That is to say, other children are fine after eating pulp, but that child is fine after eating it. Then the milk powder that our little five eats is also for the same reason?"

"It should be like this. His condition belongs to a kind of allergy, and it is relatively serious." This is the reason why Wang Guoqing quickly arranged for the nurse to give the needle. The case of the colleague was told so that the father and daughter could understand it more clearly. .After all, it is not easy to understand for those of them who have no medical knowledge.The child's whole body was not broken, so he didn't realize what serious illness it was.

Zhao Wenduo's words are more acceptable to Zhao Wenduo. The level of medical treatment in the next few decades is much more advanced than that at this time, and the popularization rate of common sense knowledge is also higher.

The term 'allergies' was considered a common problem at that time, but in this day and age people still don't know much about it, and some phenomena are collectively referred to as 'dissatisfaction'.

"That's not okay. My brother has been eating milk powder since the beginning. If he is not satisfied with it, he will not be satisfied with it long ago. Why did it take so long to find out." Zhao Wenying understood it, but she was still puzzled. Well, Xiao Wu was taken care of by her alone, and she didn't feed him the three days after his birth, that is, the afternoon meal.

Hey, that's right, it was the milk powder made by the old lady in the afternoon.
