"... Kids are just talking nonsense, and you actually believe those words?" Gu Jinzhi had just entered the door when he heard his father Gu Yanwen's voice, "Miss Hu's illness is still being treated by a doctor with good medical skills, don't delay it."
This should be an evaluation of Gu Jinzhou's medical skills.
Song Pan'er's expression was somewhat dissatisfied, she didn't like Gu Yanjin speaking of Gu Jin in this way.
Girls are originally delicate and sensitive, as parents should be careful to protect her, encourage her, let her have confidence in her own abilities, so that she can make a good show of herself in the future.
Ke Gu Yan Zhen and Hu Ze Yu were talking, Song Pan Er didn't dare to speak rashly, so she picked up her teacup and took a light sip to cover up her displeased expression.
Gu Jinzi entered the gate.
Gu Yanwen also stopped talking.
Gu Jin first paid respects to his parents, then also paid respects to Hu Ze Yu.
Hu Zheyu often hangs out with Gu Yanwu and is considered a friend.
"Jie sister, Hu Bo's daughter is ill. You were the one who figured out what was wrong with her in the first place, weren't you?" Song Pan'er asked as she sat down next to Gu Zhenzhu.
Hu Ze Yu looked at Gu Jin Zhi with a hopeful expression.
"Yes." Gu Jin said, "Hu Jie's body has a hot toxin. Has it already broken out?"
Hu Zeyu nodded repeatedly: "Seventh girl, since you've figured out the cause of the illness, can't you go take a look at Bi'er? Old Master Zhou and Old Master Xia have both taken a look and said it's no use, not even a drop of water can be added."
The poison is most violent at night.
Like the venom of a snake on a spring day, after hibernating through autumn and winter, its toxicity is more potent than ever.
Hu Jie's hot poison is just like this.
Contracting heat toxin was a common occurrence, unfortunately at that time she had already contracted the toxin in late summer. The doctor didn't pay attention to resolving it for her, and the toxin hadn't been released, remaining inside her body. After going through autumn and winter's fermentation, it became even more potent.
Just as Gu Jinzhi was about to ask a question, Gu Yanjin preempted him: "Brother Hu, both Zhou and Xia are the most prestigious figures in Yangling's medical community. They were unable to do it, but you came to invite Sister Jinzhi. You really..."
There was some disappointment in his voice, and he wanted to blame Hu Ze for a couple of sentences.
Is there such a person?
Daughter's life is hanging by a thread, why didn't you get a good doctor and instead came to the Gu's place?
Song Pan'er's eyebrows furrowed even deeper, but in the end she still didn't refute Gu Yan-zhen in front of her daughter and outsiders, she tried to endure it.
"I'll go take a look." Gu Jinzhi said, then looked at his parents, "Hu Jie and I have known each other since childhood, she's fallen ill, I'm just going to visit her."
Gu Yanzhong did not oppose it again.
Song Pan'er stood up and said: "Marshal Hu, let's not delay any further. Let's go now!"
If Gu Jin's treatment heals Hu Jie, when she returns, Song Deng'er will settle the score with Gu Yanjun!
In front of outsiders, he belittled his own daughter and enjoyed doing so!
Does he really not believe that Jin Jie has cured Mrs. Song?
Song Pan'er's face remained expressionless, but a burning anger was simmering inside her.
Hu Zeyi hesitated for a moment, but quickly covered it up. He thought that Gu Jinzhi would at least be intimidated and say that his medical skills were all thanks to the teachings of Old Master Gu. So Hu Zeyi mentioned Old Master Zhou and Old Master Xia in order to put some pressure on Gu Jinzhi.
Gu Shijie agreed in one breath.
She didn't know if she hadn't understood Hu Jie's viciousness or if she was too confident in her own medical skills.
Gu Jinzhi saw his hesitation and didn't mind, after all she was still a child, it's hard to make people believe.
She followed her mother to the Hu's home.
Song Pan'er ordered her servants to bring two kinds of medicine as gifts.
The horse carriage went around half of the city in Yanling Prefecture before arriving at the residence of Governor Hu.
Hu Jie lay on the bed in the inner room, her face completely swollen, and she couldn't see the usual charm. Her lips were black, and her breathing was wheezing. Hu Ze Yu said that Hu Jie couldn't even drink water, as if she was about to suffocate.
Once choked, it's really hopeless.
Mrs. Hu's eyes were red and swollen from crying, but she still sat there wiping away tears.
Hu Jie's brother Hu Zhuo did not go to school either and stayed with their mother and sister.
When Gu Jinzhi and Song Dang'er arrived, Mrs. Hu wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, stood up, and greeted Song Dang'er with courtesy. In front of outsiders, she still maintained her warmth and was not as harsh as she was behind their backs.
Then she glanced at Gu Jinzhi, and her gaze was no longer so friendly.
Looking again, it was Hu Zeyi. Since Mr. Gu hadn't arrived, Mrs. Hu's gentle face couldn't hold up and she was about to get angry: her daughter's life was hanging by a thread, yet he had gone to fetch the doctor but instead brought back Song Pan'er and her mother?
But in the end, Mrs. Hu didn't dare say anything.
Song Pan'er is not someone to be trifled with! Whoever provokes Song Pan'er, she won't rest until she's stirred up a big fuss. Mrs. Hu has some reservations about Song Pan'er in her heart.
"Miss Hu will naturally meet a good person with a good fate, you don't have to worry too much." Song Pan'er looked at Hu Ke lying on the bed and was a bit frightened. She showed a worried look and held onto Mrs. Hu's hand to comfort her.
Hu Jie's face was completely changed.
The sadness in Song Pan'er's voice suddenly evoked the pain in Mrs. Hu's heart, and she grasped Song Pan'er's hand, bursting into tears.
"I don't even know if the child will be lucky enough to survive..." Mrs. Hu said, crying, "I've heard that your family's old master is skilled in medicine, please help me ask him to come and take a look at my daughter, I'll repay your family by being a cow or a horse in my next life!"
As she spoke, she was about to kneel down in front of Song Xiang'er.
Song Pan'er hastily supported her: "What nonsense are you talking about? Miss Jie will be fine. Our family's old master doesn't ask for diagnoses, but Jin sister has learned the old master's lifelong skills. She'll definitely cure Miss Jie."
Two women were talking, and Gu Jin had already sat down beside Hu Jie's bed, taking her pulse.
Her majestic appearance made both Mrs. Hu and Song Pan'er speechless.
Two women, each with her own thoughts.
Mrs. Hu was filled with suspicion and disgust, thinking that Song Dang'er was using her daughter as a stepping stone to show off her own daughter's medical skills, refusing to ask Old Master Gu to take a look, abandoning her to die! If outsiders couldn't persuade Old Master Gu, could his own daughter-in-law, Song Dang'er, not persuade him either? Seeing Hu Ju's condition deteriorate like this, she still had the nerve to let her daughter show off her medical skills.
It's really lost all sense of shame, and it will have its retribution sooner or later.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Hu's fingers clenched tightly: it was not time to turn her face yet. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, she couldn't afford to offend the Gu family and Song Dang'er, so she endured Gu Jin's pretentious pulse-taking.
Song Pan'er felt relieved in her heart: Gu Jinzhi was dignified and composed, just like a doctor! She was proud of her daughter.
Two people were thinking their own thoughts, without making a sound.
Hu Ze Yu and Hu Zhuo also did not speak.
The maidservants and female slaves were even more stealthy in their footsteps.
A pin could be heard falling in the room for a moment.
With a gentle movement of his hand, Gu Jin withdrew the hand that had been resting on Hu Die's wrist and said, "The illness came on very suddenly, it is due to excessive heat toxin. But it is not fatal."
Mrs. Hu's eyes lit up at once.
Whether or not she believed Gu Jinzhi, at this moment his words gave Mrs. Hu hope.
She had been intimidated by other doctors and was feeling anxious, but Gu Jin's words were a reassurance to her.
"Seventh Young Lady, save Jie'er!" she exclaimed hastily.
"I can't save him now," said Gu Jinzhao, "there's no medicine."
Mrs. Hu's gratitude and hope all turned to nothing.
Sounds so good, but emotions can't be cured, and you're still pretending!
Hu Zeyu then asked: "What medicine does Seventh Young Lady need? I'll have someone go buy it."
"It's called Liu Shen Wan," said Gu Jin. "It's made from a combination of cow bezoar, musk, toad venom, pearl powder, menthol and hundred-herb paste."
She told Hu Zeyu about the prescription.
This prescription was not invented until the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, and it is very effective in treating acute laryngitis. Later, during the Republic of China, the prescription was protected, and until Gu Jin's death, Liu Shen Wan was a national first-class prescription.
Gu Jinzhi is a department-level leader of the Central Health Department and is also friends with the descendants of Lei's family, who invented the Six Spirits Pills, and learned the art of medicine making.
So she has seen this prescription before and will prepare it, but it just takes time.
According to past medical records, acute laryngitis was a long-standing difficult and complicated disease until the Kangxi period when Liu Shen Wan was invented, which brought about a turning point.
Because the water drop didn't enter, it couldn't be used as medicine, so the doctor diagnosed it as a terminal illness. Now in this time and space, it's been at least two hundred years since the Qing dynasty's Kangxi period. Without the advantage of crossing over, without the rich medical experience of more than 40 years from later generations, Gu Jin would not have had any confidence either.
The He family didn't quite believe her.
She is a doctor, treating illnesses and saving lives is her duty, what's the point of arguing? It would only delay Hu Ke's treatment, so she told Hu Ze Yu about the prescription.
Hu Zeyi hesitated for a moment.
Gu Jingzi saw it and said: "You let someone go to the pharmacy to ask, if not, come to my house tomorrow to get the medicine."
Hu Zeyu repeatedly nodded in agreement, thinking that Gu Jin was a kind and generous person who did not fight for fame or profit.
Is it because of his young age that he doesn't understand the benefits of fame and wealth, or is it due to being raised by Old Master Gu that he has this kind of magnanimity?
Hu Ze thought for a moment and decided to let his son Hu Zhuo go to the pharmacy himself.
Mrs. Hu heard Gu Jinzhi's explanation and thought she might be going home to ask for Master Gu's advice, then looked at Song Pan'er with a proud face, and let out a cold hum.
Although this cold hum was light, it was still caught by Song Pan'er.
Song Pan'er would never hide her displeasure. She asked Mrs. Hu directly: "What do you mean by this?"
Madam Hu was already annoyed and had lost her patience, coldly saying: "What is it that Third Madam wants to ask?"
"Do you think I'm talking nonsense?" Song Pan'er's face didn't look good either.
Hu Zeyu got a headache and hurriedly tried to persuade him.
Mrs. Hu sneered again, "If you want to show off, then show off thoroughly! If you really have the skills, why aren't you treating her now? You say there's no medicine and need to go back to prepare it? Are you fooling a three-year-old? You always want to show off your daughter, I shouldn't say anything, but don't delay my daughter Bi'er's treatment!"
Song Pan'er's face turned iron-green.
She almost jumped up and scolded: "If it weren't for the sake of our friendship over the years, would you dare to invite my sister? With so many doctors in the city, why don't you go invite someone else, why invite my sister!"
"Who wants to invite her?" Mrs. Hu also got angry and couldn't hold back, "We want to invite your old man, who let your daughter show off in the world?"
Some things have been shrouded in mystery.
Gu Jing had always been easy-going with others. But once this layer of window paper was pierced, it would affect her reputation, and continuing to watch would be pointless.
Seeing her mother's anger, the veins on her temples burst out, and Gu Jin stepped forward, gently grasping her mother's hand.
She smiled and said to Mrs. Hu, "So that's how it is. Since that's the case, we were mistaken first, so let's not disturb them." Then she pulled Song Pan'er, "Mother, let's go back!"
Song Pan'er was about to scold, but Gu Jingzhi pulled her away in a hurry. As they walked, she said: "Jiang Shi, you're such a lowly thing with dog eyes! I'll remember what you said today, and the Song family won't let you off!"
Mrs. Hu was so angry that she wanted to retort, but the other person had already walked away.
Hu Ze rushed up to apologize.
Song Paner severely scolded him, completely disregarding that he was a parent official.
"Seventh Miss, please help me with the medicine." Hu Ze Yu was scolded by Song Tan Er and didn't dare to make a sound. He followed them out of the gate, and before leaving, he begged Gu Zhen for help.
Gu Jing smiled and said: "No need! I'm not capable, nor do I want to show off. You can hire someone more talented!" Then he heavily dropped the curtain and let the coachman drive on.
Song Pan'er was furious, thinking that Gu Jinzhi would still agree to give Hu Jie medicine. When she heard Gu Jinzhi say this, she was delighted and said: "That's right! Some people are asking for trouble, and even if they die, it's not your fault! You shouldn't have saved her."
Gu Jin nodded slightly.
She thinks everyone has fate, and sometimes human life is not just dependent on heaven, but also on one's own efforts.
Perhaps Hu Jie's luck has run out?
Song Pan'er looked at Gu Jin with a smile, not angry at all, still smiling like a porcelain doll, and the anger in her heart slowly dissipated.
Her daughter has a great temperament and can still smile even when she's angry.
Song Pan'er suddenly thought of her late mother. Gu Jing's grandmother was also this kind of person, gentle but not afraid of trouble, and always had a calm face when something happened.
It's just a pity that Song Pan'er can't learn from it, she was born with a temper like charcoal.
