Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 889 Dragged Back from the Brink of Death, "Coach, I Want to Donate a Building Too!" (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets: 3K)

"Cough cough..."

As soon as the medicine entered her mouth, the little girl frowned and coughed lightly twice.

The strong bitter taste of the ginseng soup made her throat tremble slightly.

Xiong Jing gently patted the child's back and coaxed him. After the child swallowed all the ginseng soup, a faint red appeared on the child's pale lips.

After the dialect side puts the bowl down.

He stood up again, took out the prescription, and started writing:

Artemisia capillaris 30g, Atractylodes macrocephala 15g, Aconitum carmichaelii 9g (decocted first), Zingiber officinale 6g, Poria cocos 12g, Alisma plantago-aquatica 9g, Glycyrrhiza uralensis 6g.

After tearing it off, Fang Yan handed it to the nurse and said:
"Let's cook this first, we might not even need it, just prepare it for now."

"Okay." The nurse took it and immediately went to do it.

Professor Ren looked at the dialect transcription form and asked:

"Is this Yin Chen Shu Fu Tang?"

Fang Yan nodded:
"Yes, aconite with dried ginger warms the kidney yang and dispels cold and dampness, which is used for jaundice and edema. Artemisia capillaris with Atractylodes macrocephala promotes diuresis, reduces jaundice, protects the liver, and improves jaundice. Poria cocos with Alisma plantago-aquatica promotes diuresis, reduces swelling, and relieves lower limb edema."

After hearing this, Mr. Ren nodded, having basically grasped the dialect's line of thought.

The first step, in an emergency, is to treat the symptoms with a decoction of ginseng for immediate relief and to prevent collapse.

The second step is to predict the course of the disease and use Yin Chen Shu Fu Tang to cut off the pathogenesis. This formula combines the essence of Si Ni Tang in "Treatise on Cold Damage" for warming Yang and transforming Qi with Yin Chen Shu Fu Tang in "Medical Insights" for relieving jaundice and promoting diuresis. It not only treats cold-damp jaundice but also prevents warm-dryness from damaging Yin, laying the groundwork for subsequent treatment of aplastic anemia by regulating the three organs of "liver, spleen and kidney".

A holistic approach to thinking abandons the need for external aid and emphasizes self-healing.

By restoring the spleen and kidneys' function of transformation and transportation, warming and unblocking the bone marrow's Qi mechanism, and rebuilding the body's own hematopoietic ability, the principle of "treating the root cause of the disease" is reflected.

In general, the approach is a three-step progressive strategy of "consolidating the body, warming the yang, and resolving dampness". It focuses on the pathogenesis of "deficiency of both qi and blood and stagnation of cold and dampness", first resolving the current crisis, and then planning for long-term treatment.

This approach aims to both prevent the disease from worsening and treat both the symptoms and the root cause.

About five minutes after taking the medicine, everyone saw the little girl's face change from pale and weak to a light pink and translucent white.

The previously cold and weak hands and feet gradually warmed up, the curled-up limbs stretched slightly, and sweat began to appear on the forehead.

Xiong Jing quickly wiped the sweat from her daughter's brow, while casting a questioning glance at Fang Yan.

At this point, dialect was already being used to diagnose the problem.

Old Ren asked from the side:
"How about it?"

Fang Yan looked at Elder Ren and said:

"The string, about to break, has slightly softened and slowed down."

Upon hearing this, Old Ren immediately breathed a sigh of relief and remarked:

"A withered branch meeting spring rain is a sign of renewal!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present breathed a long sigh of relief.

Xiong Jing felt a sudden relaxation throughout her body, and almost lost her balance.

She was so scared when she saw that scene that her legs went weak.

She had never been frightened by any business dealings before, no matter how big the scene was, but this time, her daughter's situation truly terrified her.

Fortunately, Fang Yan was a skilled healer. Without using any Western medical methods, he saved his daughter with just moxibustion and a bowl of medicine.

"Dr. Fang, thank you! Thank you!" Xiong Jing stood up, her eyes red, and bowed repeatedly to Fang Yan.

Fang Yan helped her up and said:

"Ms. Xiong, please don't get agitated. I've only stabilized my condition so far, and I still need to continue treatment."

“It’s alright, please continue with the treatment, I will fully cooperate,” Xiong Jing said to Fang Yan.

With the full cooperation of the patient's family, there are still many ways to treat patients using dialects.

Now he took out the prescription again and started writing.

Everyone was curious, hadn't they just written down a prescription?

Why are you still writing now?
Everyone crowded around and saw the prescription written in dialect:

9g of tortoise shell glue (melted), 9g of deer antler glue (melted), 60g of astragalus, 15g of angelica, 3g of placenta powder (to be taken with water), 30g of chicken blood vine, and 12g of dodder seed.

"This is... a combination of Turtle and Deer Immortals Glue and Angelica Blood-Nourishing Soup?" Xiao Chengzhi said.

Fang Yan nodded and said:

"The prescription I just gave you needs to be simmered for at least two hours. You can use this prescription immediately."

"The core of replenishing marrow and generating blood lies in this formula. The tortoise and deer antler filling of the eight extraordinary meridians and stimulating bone marrow hematopoiesis correspond to the emptiness of the marrow sea in aplastic anemia."

"Astragalus and angelica nourish qi and blood, while placenta promotes blood production and directly replenishes the body's innate constitution."

"Someone just asked me why I don't just give blood transfusions. Since blood and essence are of the same origin, it's better to generate blood yourself and rebuild the function of the kidneys, marrow, and blood to achieve a continuous blood-generating effect, rather than just temporarily boosting the indicators with blood transfusions."

Only then did everyone understand.

Director Liao and the Vice Minister of Health, who were at the entrance, witnessed the entire process of treating illness with dialect. Now, even those who don't understand traditional Chinese medicine can understand what he was thinking when they hear this phrase again.

Next, Fang Yan asked the nurse to prepare a combination of Gui Lu Er Xian (a traditional Chinese medicine) and Dang Gui Bu Xue Tang (another traditional Chinese medicine) soup.

He then took out silver needles and inserted them into the child's ear area, spleen, kidney, liver, endocrine, and subcortical regions.

However, this time Fang Yan did not use the Tiangong needle, but instead used the silver needle with the coiled dragon handle on his wristband.

Seeing her daughter's ears covered in needles, Xiong Jing was also somewhat surprised.

She just said she would fully cooperate, but now she's turned her daughter's ear into a hedgehog. Does she really need so many needles in one ear?
Seeing the confused look in her eyes, Fang Yan explained in a language she could understand:
"This is ear acupuncture therapy, which can regulate bone marrow function and promote the secretion of hematopoietic factors."

Hearing this, Xiong Jing nodded in understanding. Then she saw that her child's originally pale lips were gradually turning a light red.

It is clearly gradually improving.

Xiong Jing was overjoyed, now treating the dialect as her lifeline.

After a while, the Turtle and Deer Two Immortals Glue Combined with Angelica Blood-Nourishing Soup was also served.

After drinking it, the child's spirits improved significantly.

"Mom, I need to go to the toilet!" the little girl said to Xiong Jing.

Upon hearing this, Xiong Jing looked at Fang Yan. At this moment, she had no idea what her daughter's reactions meant, so she could only leave it all to Fang Yan.

Fang Yan was both amused and exasperated by her appearance.

“The drainage has started, let her go,” Fang Yan said to Xiong Jing.

Then Fang Yan called the nurse and took Xiong Jing and her daughter to the restroom.

During this time, Director Liao and the Vice Minister of Health came into the room and praised Fang Yan. Although they hadn't fully understood what had happened, they knew that Fang Yan had saved the person from critical condition.

It's like the child had one foot in the grave, and he pulled him back with a single hand.

Mr. Ren also briefly recounted what had happened at the hotel earlier.

The two leaders were genuinely worried for Xiong Jing's daughter when they heard the situation was indeed critical.

Then he showered the dialect with praise.

When Xiong Jing returned, he said some comforting words to her.

Xiong Jing stated that they have accelerated cooperation with the transportation sector here.

Then the two leaders left, satisfied.

Fang Yan glanced at the time and said to Meng Jimin:
"It's almost lunchtime, Lao Meng, why don't you take Old Ren and everyone else to the cafeteria for a meal?"

"Also, I won't be able to go to school this afternoon; I'll have to stay here. Please ask Lao Liu for leave for me."

“Okay.” Meng Jimin nodded.

Speaking in dialect, he took out the Heavenly Craftsmanship Needle and handed it to Old Ren:
"By the way, Mr. Ren, could you please take this needle to Mr. Cheng and ask him what's going on?"

“Okay, I’ll go ask this afternoon.” Ren Yingqiu nodded and agreed.

He was quite interested in the needle.

The others were somewhat reluctant to leave, mainly because they wanted to see what Fang Yan would do next.

Once I got to school, listening to other people's internship experiences and attending political and ideological classes in the afternoon was less enjoyable than staying here and listening to the local dialect.

And you might even get paid!
They've already started to envy the people who will be coming for their internships tomorrow.

After everyone else had left, Fang Yan called the rehabilitation department again to tell his wife that he couldn't come home for lunch today.

Her Majesty the Queen has already heard the news.

I immediately told him I understood and that I would bring him some food later.

After Fang Yan hung up the phone and returned to the ward, Xiong Jing said with a slight apology:
"Dr. Fang, I'm so sorry to have taken up your afternoon time."

Fang Yan nodded:
"It's alright, we doctors encounter this situation frequently."

Xiong Jing said to Fang Yan:

"Dr. Fang, you are so responsible! You are the most responsible doctor I have ever met."

What Xiong Jing said was true. She was really touched. Fang Yan was so responsible. When she was abroad, people worked regular hours. If they worked overtime, they would be charged, or rather, charged a lot of overtime pay, because they were seeing famous doctors, so the prices were particularly high.

The fact that a doctor like Fang Yan would stay and take care of her at all times, especially one as famous as him, is a stark contrast to doctors abroad.

If it were according to the procedures abroad, Fang Yan would already be talking to her about adding money by now.

Fang Yan thought of the money-grubbing system abroad and shook his head, saying it was the superiority of capitalism.

They even cashed out that thick stack of test reports. A single puncture at a hospital cost more than the number of ear needles I've pricked myself. They're not treating the child like a human being.

I don't know that there are so many obvious characteristics of the dialect, and so many big hospital examination reports. Why do we have to repeat the puncture? A routine blood test can also detect it.

There was even one outrageous hospital where I went twice and had the procedure done twice.

Was it a mistake made the first time, or was there another reason?

"It's so much better in China, unlike abroad..." Xiong Jing sighed, adding that we should really support the country's development more.

Upon hearing this, Fang Yan gave Xiong Jing a thumbs up, saying that he should tell Director Liao and the others, who would surely appreciate it.

At this moment, Xiong Jing glanced at her daughter, then suddenly turned to Fang Yan and said:

"Dr. Fang, why don't I donate a building too!"

Fang Yan was taken aback. Another donation of a building?
"There probably isn't enough land left for Peking Union Medical College Hospital to build more buildings," Fang Yan reminded her.

Xiong Jing waved her hand, displaying her wealth and affluence:

"No, no, I mean, I'd also like to donate a building to the school you attend."

"This will allow more people to learn traditional Chinese medicine."

"The building's name will be the same as the Zhou family's, called 'Fangyan Building'! Or you can choose your own name, and our family will cover the cost!"

P.S.: I still owe you 26000 words after finishing this chapter.

That's all for today, please come early tomorrow.

Lao Feng is working hard to write tomorrow's code.
