ancient female doctor

Chapter 67 Diagnosis
Qingzhu suppressed the doubts in her heart, and touched Aunt Lan's lower abdomen, the touch was very soft, it seemed a little irregular, not like a normal fetus.

A case that my grandfather told her in the previous life flashed across her mind like lightning. After covering Aunt Lan again with the quilt, she sat up straight and asked, "Has Aunt Lan ever felt fetal movement?"

"Fetal movement?" Aunt Lan frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said, "It seems to be."

"But around the navel?" Qing Zhu asked again.

"Yes, I often feel the beating around the belly button at night." Aunt Lan nodded and said in a positive tone.

Hearing Aunt Lan's words, Qingzhu's thoughts became more and more clear, as long as one final confirmation is needed, the disease can basically be diagnosed.

"Then, have you ever seen the dirty blood from Aunt Lan's belly?" Qing Zhu asked, turning her head and looking at Qiu Ju who had been standing beside her.

"No." Qiu Ju shook her head and said with shame on her face.

"It's all filth, it's normal if you don't look at it..." Aunt Lan saw Qiu Ju's face was ashamed, she hurriedly exited the siege, and then asked: "Is it important?"

"Very important." Qingzhu nodded affirmatively, then looked at Aunt Lan: "I wonder if I can see Aunt Lan's lower body [body], for the final diagnosis, the blood in the abdomen must be checked."

"Ah, how is this possible!" As soon as Qingzhu finished speaking, Qiu Ju exclaimed from the side, and then said to Qingzhu very uneasy: "I'm sorry, Doctor Xia. But although you are a woman, this is really difficult for others .”

At this moment, Aunt Lan was so ashamed that she couldn't even speak, she directly pulled up the quilt and covered herself completely.

"I'm sorry... I know this is a difficult situation, but it's really difficult to diagnose otherwise." Qingzhu said to Qiu Ju with an apologetic face.

"But, this is really not possible, Doctor Xia, please think of other ways?" Qiu Ju looked at Qing Zhu with a pleading look on her face.

"Then Aunt Lan is wearing a menstrual belt now?" Qingzhu asked after thinking about it.

"Yes." Qiu Ju nodded and said.

"Then, can you show me this?" Qing Zhu asked.

"This..." Qiu Ju looked distressed, and asked Aunt Lan who was covering her blanket, "Auntie, is it okay?"

Aunt Lan moved under the quilt, but she didn't know whether she was nodding or shaking her head.

Qiu Ju looked at Qing Zhu and said, "Doctor Xia, please avoid it for a while."

"Okay." Qing Zhu stood up and avoided the outer room.

After a while, Qiu Ju came out with her menstrual belt in her hand, and said to Qing Zhu with a flushed face, "Doctor Xia, please take a look."

Qingzhu looked at the menstrual belt, and was a little disappointed. It seemed that the stuffing here was not cotton but plant ash. The plant ash was too absorbent, and the original appearance of the menstrual blood on it could not be seen at all.

"What?" Although Qiu Ju blushed, but seeing Qingzhu's disappointment, she was still panicked and asked hastily.

"It's filled with plant ash, you can't see it." Qingzhu shook her head and said.

"Ah, what should we do then?" Qiu Ju asked anxiously, looking at Qing Zhu.

Qingzhu suddenly glanced at the copper basin on the shelf, moved slightly in her heart, pointed to the copper basin and said: "Well, you can find a clean copper basin, help Aunt Lan up, let her sit on the copper basin, don't ask for anything. Pad, show it to me in half an hour."

"Yes." Qiu Ju responded quickly, and then whispered outside: "Chunxiang, I'm here to guard Auntie, you can take Dr. Xia down to have a rest."

"Okay, go get busy, Doctor Xia has me here."

Chunxiang responded immediately, and came in to ask Qingzhu to go to the next room to rest for a while, and served tea and snacks for Qingzhu.

After Qingzhu sat down, she remembered to look at the previous prescriptions, looked at Chunxiang and said, "Sister Chunxiang, don't you know that the prescriptions prescribed by the previous doctors are in your aunt's room? Can you bring them here for me to see?"

Chunxiang naturally agreed, and soon came over with a wooden box full of prescriptions.

"They were all prescribed in the past few days?" Qing Zhu looked at the wooden box in surprise, there were dozens of prescriptions inside.

"Yes." Chunxiang put the wooden box by Qingzhu's hand and nodded.

It seems that the county magistrate is really caring, but it is understandable, after all, he is his only heir so far. It is a pity, this time, I am afraid that he will still be disappointed.

Qingzhu took the prescriptions and looked at them one by one. After reading a few, he found that these prescriptions were almost the same, and they were all prescriptions for nourishing blood and repairing fetus.There is nothing wrong with these prescriptions for treating threatened miscarriage, but...

Aunt Kelan probably didn't have a miscarriage.

It's just that if the diagnosis is confirmed later, how can I tell Aunt Lan?How should I tell the magistrate?

Although the magistrate of the county said that he would not beat himself up, but if he was really diagnosed, I don't know if he would throw himself into the prison in a fit of rage. It would be difficult for a doctor...

Thinking about it, Qingzhu couldn't help but feel a headache.

Half an hour later, Qiuju came to invite Qingzhu.

"Bring it to the yard, it will be brighter and you can see clearly." Qing Zhu said.

"Yes." Qiu Ju replied.

After a while, Qiu Ju came over with a copper basin, and there was only as much blood as a small teacup in the basin, and there was a blister-like thing inside the blood stain, which seemed a bit shocking.

It really is a mole...

Seeing Qing Zhu's embarrassing expression, Qiu Ju was frightened, and called out nervously: "Doctor Xia?"

Hearing Qiu Ju calling him, Qingzhu realized his gaffe. In the patient's family - the personal maid can barely be considered a family member. If he gaffes like this in front of the patient's family, he really isn't a qualified doctor.

Qing Zhu warned herself slightly in her heart, adjusted her facial expression, and said to Qiu Ju: "Take it down, find a place to bury it."

"Dr. Xia, is this a diagnosis?" Qiu Ju still looked at Qing Zhu nervously.

"Well, it's confirmed." Qingzhu nodded.

"Thank God, the diagnosis is finally confirmed. Dr. Xia is really good." Qiu Ju was greatly relieved when she heard Qing Zhu's words, and asked again: "Then is the young master in our aunt's stomach all right?"

Qing Zhu shook her head, and before she could speak, Qiu Ju quickly said: "It's good that it's okay, really, our aunt is finally a good person with good rewards... Ah, Doctor Xia, I'll take this down first, and let someone take it and bury it." "Chunxiang, quickly prepare pens, ink, paper and inkstones, and let Dr. Xia prescribe."

After saying that, Qiu Ju trotted away in a hurry, as if she was afraid that Qingzhu would stop her.

Qing Zhu looked at Qiu Ju's back and opened her mouth a few times, and finally sighed heavily: "Forget it, let's think about how to tell the Lord."

Mole is easy to explain in modern medicine, but in ancient times, it was not so easy to explain.

Evil fetus in the body... I don't know how it will make people who hear it think about it.
