Chapter 416: Poisoned
Qiu Ling was not in a hurry, but the people in the queue behind him were. They shouted, "Do you want to see the doctor or not? If you haven't reached an agreement, go to the side and discuss it slowly. Don't take up everyone else's time."
The old lady just leaned on the table and said, "Why? I came here to wait as soon as I received the news last night. Why should I move aside?
It's Ming Tuan's wife who doesn't see the doctor, not me!"
"I've finished checking. You don't have any serious problems, just old age diseases. Eat less and exercise more. Next one!" Qiu Ling restrained his expression of watching the fun and said seriously.
The old lady didn't believe it, "I feel uncomfortable everywhere, how can I have no serious illness?"
"You don't believe me, why are you looking for me? You can look for someone else," Qiu Ling smiled. She was indeed right. The old lady was just a little older and her organs were beginning to age, but she ate until she was 120% full every meal and didn't exercise much, which put a heavier burden on her body.
"Auntie, please move aside, it's our turn," the next person pushed the old lady aside without any courtesy.
The old lady was very angry.
Her daughter-in-law smiled and said, "Who wasted the quota? You didn't take away my chance to see a doctor. You just extended the time for your grandson's birth indefinitely.
Okay, you've seen the doctor, it's not a big deal, go home and pack up, we'll take you back home. This is the condition you agreed to!"
The old lady was unwilling to accept it, "That doesn't count. I didn't even take the medicine. You must have colluded with each other to fool me on purpose."
Qiu Ling looked at Captain Huang's wife and said, "Sister-in-law, come and sit down. I'll take your pulse."
Mrs. Huang was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved her hands, "Mrs. Ming, we know the rules. Before, my Huang San's quota was taken by my mother-in-law, so we can't consult anymore."
"It's okay, I'll show you," Qiu Ling said with a smile.
The people behind her also couldn't stand Old Lady Huang, so they pulled Sister Huang over and said, "Sister Huang, why are you being so polite? This should be your chance. Hasn't your family always wanted a child? It's a good opportunity for Madam Ming to help."
Captain Huang also said with a chuckle: "Wife, just consider it as we owe Captain Ming's family a favor. Show Madam Ming."
Old Mrs. Huang stared and wanted to step forward, but Yan Zhao, who was standing next to Qiu Ling, narrowed her eyes slightly. Her feet seemed to be rooted and she could not move, and her mouth was also stuck.
The feeling was just like being sleep paralyzed. She was conscious but couldn't move.
Mrs. Huang pursed her lips and sat down, placing her arm on the pulse pillow with a stern look on her face. She had heard from others that although Mrs. Ming was young, she had superb medical skills and could treat any difficult and complicated disease.
In the past half month, Mrs. Ming has been seeing patients at Shanbaotang, and the queues of people who came to see the doctor were several hundred meters long!
Qiu Ling lowered his eyes slightly to feel Huang's pulse, then looked at her eyes and mouth, listened to her heart, and asked, "Huang, did you have a child before, but you didn't keep it?"
Huang's face showed sadness, and she nodded: "Yes, I got pregnant two months after I got married, but at that time we were all in our hometown, the men were working in the fields, and I was busy at home.
My mother-in-law kept an eye on me, afraid that I would have a moment of leisure, because I was so tired that I lost my first child.
It was the autumn harvest time, and I didn’t take good care of myself during the confinement period. I got pregnant, and I never had any problems since.”
"When you were back home, did you ever eat mushrooms from the mountains?"
Mrs. Huang was stunned for a moment: "Yes, the land does not produce much. After paying the public grain, the remaining food is not enough for a family for a year. We usually eat what we can find in the mountains. We pick mushrooms after the rain and dry them..."
“What do you eat?”
"There are only two or three most common ones. We rarely see the others and don't dare to eat them..."
"Mrs. Ming, is there any problem?" Captain Huang asked nervously.
"Yes, my sister-in-law is not physically ill, but she has been poisoned so she cannot get pregnant. To be precise, she took a sterilizing poison," Qiu Ling said, and out of the corner of his eye he saw the guilty look on the struggling old lady Huang's face.
She lowered her head and used a pen to lightly sketch out the shape of a mushroom on the paper. "This one has a yellow tip and a purple base. Taking a small amount can cause miscarriage. Taking it continuously for a long time can cause toxins to accumulate in the body and lead to sterilization.
But this kind of mushroom only grows in hot and humid places..."
During this period, she had looked through the various medical books in the Ge family's collection and remembered this mushroom.
When they saw the mushrooms she drew, Captain Huang and his wife looked at each other and couldn't help but look at Old Mrs. Huang.
"You, why are you looking at me? I don't know anything," Old Mrs. Huang suddenly was able to speak, and she hurriedly denied it.
Captain Huang retracted his gaze, his heart chilled, and he looked at Qiu Ling sincerely: "Madam Ming, please help my wife detoxify and recuperate. No matter how much it costs, we are willing to treat her!"
Qiu Ling nodded, "I'll give her acupuncture to clear her blood first, then prescribe some medicine for her to take orally, and some herbs for her to take a bath. With these three methods, I think the toxins in her body should be mostly cleared out.
As long as she keeps taking the medicine for a month, her body will recover and she will be ready to get pregnant at any time."
After she said this, Captain Huang and his wife knelt down and kowtowed to her.
"Hurry up and get up. Remember to be careful with the food you put in your mouth in the future," Qiu Ling warned with a helpless smile.
Mrs. Huang was a little less aggressive at this moment, and she muttered, "We have a lot of these mushrooms at home, why are you looking at me? I'm not giving them to her.
Maybe she ate it herself and deliberately framed me..."
The people around couldn't stand it anymore. There are really all kinds of birds in the forest. Is it so good to let your son be the last one to have an heir?
Huang's wife walked up to Old Lady Huang and slapped her in anger, "I respect you as the mother of the three of them, but you have never treated us as your own children. If that's the case, then you don't need to be a decent mother.
You know better than anyone whether you did it or not. You are not welcome in my home from now on. When you can no longer walk and need someone to feed you, we will send you to a nursing home."
"You dare," Old Mrs. Huang has never been beaten since she became a housewife. She has always been the one who acts domineeringly, beating this and scolding that, or crying, making a fuss, or even threatening to commit suicide, to make everyone accommodate her and let her do as she pleases.
Being beaten by her daughter-in-law, she lost all her dignity. Old Mrs. Huang cried out and rushed to Mrs. Huang, and the two of them started to wrestle.
However, Mrs. Huang felt that her limbs were not very flexible and stuck from time to time, and Mrs. Huang pulled her hair fiercely.
Captain Huang stepped forward to separate them. Old Lady Huang couldn't beat Mrs. Huang, so she dug at Captain Huang's face. But Mrs. Huang was quick to slap him in the face and pushed him away. "This is none of your business. Why do you, a grown man, come to join in the fun when women are fighting? My child was killed by this old witch. If I don't scare her today, I'll be sorry for the baby I aborted..."
