Having a fever isn't a big deal, just drink some ginger soup and sleep with the covers on.
Of course, it would be better if a doctor could take a look.
Third Uncle went back to the inner courtyard after seeing him, and Gu Zhen thought that they would definitely ask a doctor for themselves.
Gu Zhenzhi wasn't worried. The ship had been very hot a few days ago, but recently it had cooled down, and at night he kicked off his quilt once while sleeping, got up early with a dizzy head, and felt a bit feverish.
Drank a bowl of scalding hot porridge from Wanshan's family, broke out in sweat, and the heat subsided.
Having landed on shore, it suddenly erupted, which was also within expectation.
It's just a minor illness.
None of this was sudden, and Gu Chen had been prepared in his heart. He didn't feel down because of his illness, but instead felt calm and peaceful, without any ripples.
Not until San Shu let Qi Tang Mei come and take a look at his illness did he have some ideas.
Or maybe he didn't quite understand San Shu's intention.
He knew his third aunt was a vain person, which didn't matter. Most people are vain, and it's not considered a weakness. It's just that his third aunt was so vain that it could only be called "excessive pride".
Because... Seventh Aunt followed her grandfather to learn medicine... Third Aunt wanted to prove Seventh Aunt's skills... So, she operated on him?
Even with Gu Chen's good temper, he felt uncomfortable.
He looked embarrassed.
Gu Jing looked at him with a glance, thinking that Da Tang's embarrassment was also a common human emotion. After all, she was so young and had followed her grandfather to study medicine for two years, even prescribing medicine. She smiled and explained: "Big brother, I'll take a look first, then we can ask Dr. Qin to come and take another look, how about that?"
Gu Chen's embarrassed expression was immediately withdrawn, not wanting to make Gu Jin uncomfortable.
He finally revealed a wry smile and said, "Then trouble Seventh Sister."
Song Pan'er had seen such distrust several times, from initial furious anger to now secretly holding back a breath: Hmph, wait till I'm cured, then see how I'll talk to you!
She smiled brightly at Gu Zhen's hesitation, not taking offense.
Gu Jin had sat down and was taking Gu Chen's pulse.
Gu Zhenzi was holding on tightly, but there were always flashes of doubt and worry in his eyes.
Is it worrying that Song Dang'er forced him to take medicine randomly?
His eyes rolled around.
"Big brother, about a month ago, didn't you also catch a cold and have a fever?" Gu Jinzhi suddenly asked, "And afterwards, although the fever subsided, your right leg has been having occasional low-grade burning sensations?"
His fever this time has nothing to do with unaccustomed water and soil, but is simply a case of summer dampness latent in the body.
But Number One Pulse discovered that he had an old illness in his body.
Gu Chen's face changed greatly: he had indeed caught a cold a month ago!
It was too hot at that time, when the boat stopped to rest in the evening, the boatman and the little servants who followed him were greedy for coolness, and they all went down to the river to play in the water, and they also encouraged him to cool off.
Was Gu Zhen's sweat not also dripping all over?
It just so happened that on that day it was anchored in the middle of the river, and there were no people to be seen on the distant shore either.
He also went down to the river and took a refreshing cool water bath, feeling invigorated.
After boarding the ship, everyone else was fine, but he started coughing badly the next day; then came sneezing and a fever.
The boatmen and the young servants all whispered that he was too delicate, and also went ashore to ask a doctor for him, and took medicine. A day later, the fever receded, and the injury gradually got better.
Ke Cen had a general feeling that some part of his body would have a low-grade fever, making him very uncomfortable.
He couldn't pinpoint exactly where it was.
It's not obvious during the day, but at night I'm occasionally woken up by heat, as if it's just the lower half of my right side...
Now Gu Jin heard one say, his back a cold sweat, hastily said: "Is it is! Seventh sister, isn't it a serious illness?"
It's actually visible that this seventh aunt of his has been following her grandfather for a long time, right? She really has some ability!
The initial suspicion turned out to be unfounded, and now Gu Chen was only afraid that Gu Jin would ignore him. He wished he could grab her arm, fearing she would turn around and leave.
His hand involuntarily stretched out and then he felt absurd, so he withdrew it back!
He is very nervous.
Gu Jin immediately comforted him: "Don't worry, big brother! This time you got sick, it's just the invasion of heat evil into Shaoyang, is there still some diarrhea?"
Gu Chen's heart was shocked again, and he hastily nodded like a garlic press: "Yes!" This is also too amazing! The first pulse knows everything, which Gu Chen had never seen before.
His mother always said that his grandfather was a profound and mysterious man; but his father said that his grandfather's medical skills were mediocre, yet he had an extraordinary luck.
He hadn't seen his grandfather prescribe medicine and ask for a diagnosis very often, so he believed what his father said.
Suddenly seeing Gu Jing's exquisite medical skills, he remembered his mother's words: Grandfather is only afraid that your real skills are beyond others.
Gu Zhenzhi suddenly felt a little regretful. He had originally wanted to study medicine, but his father thought it was beneath him and that reading books and taking the imperial examination would be more promising; also, his grandfather disliked his father and was cold towards Gu Zhenzhi, so he put aside the idea of studying medicine with his grandfather.
Now looking at Gu Jin's skills, Gu Chen's heart is also sour: If he had followed his grandfather to become a medicine boy in the early years, now his skills would definitely be stronger than Gu Jin's!
He's a man, after all! Men are always better than women at everything! If Gu Jing could master the art of diagnosing illnesses just by looking at someone, then Gu Chen definitely can too.
He opened a pharmacy, not for fame or profit, but to treat the poor people in the city and give them medicine. He lived a simple life with plain food and drink, and his heart was at peace!
This was Gu Zhenzhi's ideal. Since it is no longer possible to achieve, he has never mentioned it to anyone.
At this moment, Gu Jin's exposure of his true nature stirred up the idea that had been lurking in his heart for a long time.
"...the heat is trapped inside and outside, the Triple Burner has not yet fully opened up, the heat is coming from within, and the dampness and heat are interacting with each other. I'll prescribe a secondary cooling and nourishing drink for you, which will help to clear the Qi mechanism of the Triple Burner and allow the heat to dissipate." Gu Jin added, "However, your burning symptoms will have to wait until this bout of heat has passed, then I can slowly use medicine to help you regulate and recover, it's a bit troublesome."
"Thank you, Seventh Sister!" Gu Chenzhi thanked her repeatedly.
He looked listless and didn't know what he was thinking about.
This result was different from what Song Xiang'er had expected.
"Brother, there's no need for this." Gu Jinzhi smiled and said, "You can rest assured and recover quietly."
Then she got up and went to her father's study to get a prescription.
Gu Yanwen arrived just in time.
Song Pan'er's expression was still okay, without sudden anger, it can be seen that Gu Zhen let Gu Jin look at him, and Gu Yan also put down his heart, asking Gu Zhen how he felt.
"Much better."
After a moment, Gu Jinzi opened Fang Zi's prescription.
Song Pan'er personally went to instruct the servants to fetch medicine.
Gu Yanzhong is also accompanying here.
The sky was getting darker, and Song Pan'er and Gu Jin's mother and daughter returned to the inner courtyard.
"Brother Chen, I've already asked the little servant beside me to invite Dr. Qin, and he'll come in quietly through the corner door later to take a look at you." Gu Yan's voice was slightly lowered, "Your third aunt and seventh sister are also kind-hearted, don't be suspicious!"
He was quite embarrassed.
Gu Chen was momentarily stunned, and then he couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time.
At first, he indeed suspected Gu Jinzhi.
But Gu Jin's few words had pointed out his own new and old wounds, and each sentence was accurate. Gu Chen had already surrendered in his heart.
He is a patient, no matter how others look at him, as long as the doctor can clearly state his symptoms, he thinks this doctor is a divine doctor!
Even if it's just a child!
And his third uncle, apparently like ordinary people, did not believe in Qī Mèi this child either.
"Third Uncle, don't bother!" said Gu Chen, "I'll just take the prescription Qī Mèi wrote! Qī Mèi explained it clearly, I believe her!"
This time, it's Gu Yanwen's turn to be stunned!
