Tang Dynasty good doctor

Chapter 71 Raw lacquer allergy
When Cheng Zhoutong heard that he had found the cause, he immediately brought the child over and shouted, "Sheng Wang...no no, little doctor of Ping An, you have found the cause, so hurry up and show this child!"

Wang Pingan saw that he was coming with the child in his arms, and hurriedly said: "Hurry up and take the child out, the reason why he got sick is because he stayed in this room!"

Cheng Zhou was shocked when he heard that, and hurriedly took the child out again.Chang Qingfeng was also taken aback, and said: "Little doctor Ping'an, where do you start with this? How could the child get sick because he stayed in this house? This is a new house!"

Wang Pingan patted the wooden bed and said, "It's related to the new house. Is this bed newly painted?"

Chang Qingfeng nodded and said: "Of course, this is a new bed. I specially found the best carpenter, using high-quality wood, and three layers of raw lacquer!"

Wang Pingan sighed, and said: "The problem lies in the lacquer. What the child has is... well, it should be called lacquer sores. What he has is lacquer sores. This kind of disease develops very quickly, and symptoms can be seen overnight. !"

Gouxiu was in the room at this time, and when she heard Wang Pingan say it was a paint sore, she hurriedly stepped forward and said, "It can't be a paint sore, I've seen a case of paint sores before, and it was blistered. But no blisters!"

Wang Pingan waved his hand and signaled everyone to go out and talk.After leaving the house, he saw Zhao Bi and Lu Xiuzhi standing in the courtyard, he said, "Brother Zhao, do you still remember the "General Treatise on the Origins and Symptoms of All Diseases" that you read?"

Zhao Bi blushed. In front of so many people, he was a little embarrassed. He nodded and said, "I remember, of course I remember. Why, Brother Wang Xian wants to read that book? I'll get it for you tomorrow!"

Wang Pingan shook his head and said, "I've read it." He turned to Gou Xiu again, and said, "Have you read this book?"

Gou Xiu's face was blank, she shook her head and said, "No, I haven't even heard of it, what kind of book is that?"

Wang Pingan sighed, and said: "There is a discussion about paint sores in that book. Just now I thought that the child had eaten something wrong, so I always thought about it, but it turned out to be wrong. When I got here, I found out It turned out to be a paint sore!"

"General Discussion on the Origins and Symptoms of Diseases" was written in the Sui Dynasty, during the reign of Emperor Sui Yang. At that time, the world was in chaos, and everyone was fighting and fighting for their lives. How could they have the time to take care of such things.It took a lot of effort to print a book at that time, and it would take a long time to spread it. The former Sui Dynasty was only a few decades away from the early Tang Dynasty, and there was not enough time to popularize a medical book. , In peacetime, it is not enough to popularize, not to mention in times of war, it is lucky that this book has not been burned.

Zhao Bi came from a wealthy family, and his family was in the business of medicinal materials, so he had this book at home, while Gou Xiu was just an ordinary doctor who practiced medicine locally, and was not a famous doctor. No matter in terms of financial resources or ability, He couldn't even get a book like "General Treatise on the Causes and Symptoms of All Diseases", which only the upper-class people were qualified to read at that time, so it's not surprising that he hadn't heard of it.Doctors in this day and age have to hold on to a prescription, not to mention a good medical book.

Wang Pingan said to Gouxiu: "The symptoms of paint sores are not necessarily blisters, but also pimples, fever, fear of cold, headache, and even poor appetite or constipation. These symptoms may not occur at the same time, sometimes there will be only one or two. , now the child is only swollen and flushed. Therefore, it is not enough to judge the cause of the disease by experience alone, and more books are needed!"

Gou Xiu smiled wryly, thinking: "I really want to read more, but I have to have books to read. I have never heard of the book you mentioned, let alone read it!"

Cheng Zhoutong stood in the courtyard with his little grandson in his arms. Hearing what Wang Pingan said, he said, "Paint sores? I've heard of this disease, but I've never seen anyone get it. Is this disease curable?"

Wang Pingan said with a smile: "It's not difficult to treat, Mr. Cheng can rest assured!"

Zhao Bi and Lu Xiuzhi listened and shook their heads together, thinking to themselves: "Brother Wang, you are really an honest person, you should say that it is not curable, so he will accept your favor!"

In fact, the disease of paint allergy also occurs from time to time in modern times. In daily life, after people have renovated a new house, they always have to open the windows for ventilation, and only live in it after a while. In fact, this is a kind of common sense.Of course, this can no longer be said to be just to release the smell of paint, but there is always such a reason. With the development of the times, various pathogenic factors are gradually increasing, and it cannot be singled out.

Once the cause is identified, the cure is simple.Chang Qingfeng asked: "Then what medicine should I take? Dr. Gou is here, we can go to his pharmacy to get the medicine."

Wang Pingan said: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome. You can use wooden persimmon to make soup and wash it. Well, this is a bit troublesome. You can also wash it with old willow bark, but the effect is a little slower, and the child will suffer more. Dried lotus leaves or Willow leaves... with it, you can also use mud for sharpening the knife, do you have a whetstone here?"

Chang Qingfeng said: "Of course there is. Don't want to have a banquet. I sharpened all the knives in the house yesterday."

"Let's go to the kitchen!" Wang Ping'an went back to the kitchen. He saw a big bucket in the kitchen, which contained a lot of crabs. The pronunciation of crab and Xie is the same. This dish is used to reward the guests and friends who came to congratulate.He laughed and said: "Actually, it is also possible to extract the yellow from raw crabs and apply them on the children, but this is troublesome enough. Just mash these crabs with their shells and apply the thin juice on the children. The disease will be cured tomorrow." See you!"

Gou Xiu was taken aback, and exclaimed, "So simple? The paint sore I treated last time took a lot of effort!"

Wang Ping'an said: "Actually, there is a formula... well, I came up with a formula myself. Bring a pen and paper!" Ask someone to take the Four Treasures of the Study, write a pen and say, "I call this formula three Baisan is the most effective in treating lacquer sores, it can be used as a regular preparation, and you can use this medicine directly when you encounter lacquer sores in the future, so you don't have to rush around!"

He handed this recipe to Chang Qingfeng, and said: "This is a small congratulatory gift from me to your Brother Chang!"

Chang Qingfeng took the prescription, arched his hands, saluted Wang Ping'an, and said, "Thank you, little doctor Ping'an, if I hadn't met you today, I would be ashamed to face my old friend!"

Tong Cheng Zhou said: "Brother Chang, don't say such things. There are bound to be unexpected things in the world. I lost my temper just now in our friendship for many years. If you say something serious, you brother will bear it!"

The two old men clasped their hands tightly and couldn't help sighing.The Chang family has its own servants to mash the crabs into juice and smear them on the children.The guests and friends who came to the banquet were also filled with emotion, only Gou Xiu stretched her neck and stared, wanting to see the prescription, but she didn't dare to ask Wang Pingan for it, nor did she dare to ask Chang Qingfeng, so she could only worry about it herself!
Seeing that things were almost done, Wang Ping'an was about to leave, Chang Qingfeng took his hand and said, "Little doctor Ping'an, on my son's big day, you must come to have a glass of wedding wine, you must come!"

Wang Pingan smiled and said: "Okay, I will definitely come!" After a few words of politeness, he took the two little girls and left with Zhao Bi and Lu Xiuzhi.

After leaving the door, Zhao Bi complained: "Although Mr. Chang is from the Governor's Mansion, but something happened to his family, even if we didn't help, we kept running around, and he didn't invite us, Really shameless!"

But Lu Xiuzhi said: "What are we two? He is an official. Even if he wants to invite him, he can only invite our father. Why invite us!"

Wang Pingan said with a smile: "He doesn't invite, I invite. Let's go back to the restaurant and have a big meal. Good wine and food are waiting for us!"

After sending Wang Ping'an away, Chang Qingfeng said to the guests and friends: "Everyone, I'm sorry, today's auspicious time has passed, we can't get married, we have to change the date, and when the auspicious date is set, I will invite you all to come again." Come on, I can only give up today, the old man apologizes to everyone!"

The guests and friends all said: "Master Chang, there is no need to be like this. The world is impermanent, and accidents are inevitable. When the date is fixed, we will definitely come again and have a glass of wedding wine!" Everyone gradually dispersed.

Cheng Zhoutong was delighted when he saw that the swelling on his little grandson's body had subsided a little. It seems that this method really works.Seeing that the old friend was still frowning, he asked, "Is there anything else that bothers you?"

Chang Qingfeng sighed: "It's okay for others to say that it's okay to come again at another time, but my wedding invitation was also sent to Lord Inspector. Now that the date has been changed, I have to go and inform, otherwise it would be a great disrespect!"

Cheng Zhoutong said with an ah, "Master Inspector will come too?"

Chang Qingfeng showed embarrassment, and said: "The governor is busy, I don't dare to argue whether he will come or not. But if I don't talk about the matter of changing the day, it will be rude. It's his subordinate!"

Cheng Zhoutong nodded and said, "Yes, you are right!"

Chang Qingfeng said: "Today's incident is thanks to Ping An's little genius doctor. He is your student. How is his reading?"

This time Cheng Zhou was embarrassed, and said: "I am a little sorry for this boy, and I will make up for it in the future. He is going to take the medical exam. From today's point of view, it is inevitable that he will be admitted in the future!"

Chang Qingfeng hummed, and thought: "Since I will be admitted to the imperial examination in the future, shouldn't I mention it to Lord Inspector, and ask Lord Inspector to support him! Sigh, I am a small civil servant, how can I have such face?" But Ping An's little genius doctor is very kind, if Mr. Inspector wants to ask why the date of marriage was changed, and find a reason, I must talk to Mr. Inspector about it!"
