ore An Xuetang could even get close to him, he had already fiercely gripped An Xuetang's wrist.Although An Xuetang felt like her hand was about to be broken by this person, she didn't say a word and h..."Is the young lady seeing the doctor or getting medicine" The apothecary's tone was extremely bad, he was just short of asking her to leave.
"I want to see your shopkeeper."
The medicine boy's face darkened. "Get lost, get lost! Our shopkeeper isn't someone you can just meet whenever you want! This is a medical hall, if you're not here to see a doctor or buy medicine, then leave quickly and don't delay others!"
Looks down on people!
An Xuetang cursed inwardly.
"I want to buy a pair of silver needles, I wonder if you have them here"
The medicine boy looked at her with suspicion, “Silver needles”
His eyes and expression seem to say: "Do you think you're worthy enough to buy silver needles"
An Xuetang endured it again and again, fearing that if she couldn't hold back any longer, she would lash out and hit someone.
"Yes, I would like to buy silver needles."
"Alright, thirty taels!" The apprentice then reached out his hand.
He was certain that with her appearance, An Xue Tang couldn't possibly afford thirty taels of silver.
And An Xuetang was also startled by this number.
Thirty taels
Acupuncture needles are so expensive
But, even if she was sold, he wouldn't be able to afford it.
Seeing An Xuetang's furrowed brow, the medicine boy became even more certain that this woman couldn't afford to buy so many silver needles.
He pointed to the door, "Go, go quickly."
If he doesn't leave soon, he'll have to force him to go.
An Xuetang rolled her eyes. Since arriving in this world, even a little apothecary dared to bully her!
Originally, she had sought out the shopkeeper not only to buy silver needles but also to inquire whether they needed a doctor. She could come and see patients here.
But looking at the medicine boy's appearance, she also roughly knew the essence of this medical hall.
An Xuetang rolled her eyes and turned to leave.
As soon as she stepped out the door, she saw a man run into the clinic with a pale face, shouting for help.
Without knowing why, An Xuetang stopped in her tracks and listened to the man's shout.
It turned out that this man's wife had a difficult labor, and the midwife had already announced that it was impossible, she couldn't save both mother and child. He could only come to find a doctor.
"Doctor Li, please save my wife and children!"
The man knelt before this Dr. Li, weeping and pleading.
Doctor Li let out a long sigh, "Didn't Doctor Wang from our clinic leave early this morning If he can't do anything, what can I possibly do You should just go back and prepare for the aftermath."
"Doctor, please, please, you must try to think of a way."
The man was unwilling to give up so easily. He kept bowing to the doctor, which made the doctor feel helpless.
An Xuetang narrowed her eyes. She knew that in this era, childbirth was a gamble with one's life. Once complications arose, nine out of ten women would die.
Perhaps, this is her chance to earn her first paycheck
Unknowingly, An Xue Tang returned to the medical hall again. The medicine boy saw her return once more, his face darkened again, and he was about to speak and drive her away.
By this time, An Xuetang had walked up to the kneeling man and said, "May I try"
The man suddenly looked up, but when he saw the other person was such a young girl, his eyes darkened again.
The young apprentice scoffed, "Don't fool around, miss. Even our Wang Doctor and Li Doctor couldn't do anything about it, so what could you possibly do"
An Xuetang was too lazy to pay him any mind, only her gaze remained fixed on the man kneeling on the ground, "Anyway, you're just kneeling here for nothing. Why don't you let me try"
The man looked at An Xue Tang with tears in his eyes. He didn't know why, but looking into this girl's eyes, he felt a strange sense that she could definitely do it.
"Alright, I'll take you there now." the man stood up.
Doctor Li narrowed his eyes and let out a snort. “Just a child playing around, and people actually believe it.”
An Xue Tang was speechless. At this moment, when life and death were at stake, she was too lazy to argue with him.
The man was desperate to save his wife and child, and An Xue Tang ran back home with him.
At this time, the man's house was in disarray.
Upon seeing the man return, a doctor carrying his medical bag came to bid farewell. "Mr. Chen, I truly am powerless."
The man collapsed onto the ground, his face ashen.
At this moment, the midwife also ran out, her face grim. "Mr. Chen, Mrs. Chen... Mrs. Chen has fainted, I'm afraid she won't wake up."
The man pounded his chest and cried out, "What am I going to do What am I going to do!"
An Xuetang touched her forehead, wondering if he had forgotten that he had already invited her.
"Mr. Chen, let me go in and check on Mrs. Chen quickly," An Xuetang reminded him.
Only then did Boss Chen remember. He suddenly looked at An Xuetang, as if grasping the last straw, "Miss, please, you must save my wife. Even if...even if you can't save me, you must save my wife."
Dr. Wang and the midwife both looked at An Xue Tang, their eyes filled with disbelief.
Life or death hung in the balance. An Xuetang nodded, her gaze shifting to the midwife. "Take me inside," she said, "I need your help."
After finishing, she looked at Dr. Wang and said, "I need to borrow your silver needles, Dr. Wang. I wonder if you would be willing"
Dr. Wang, without saying a word, handed his medical kit to An Xuetang. Though he doubted the young girl's abilities, he had a sliver of hope now and desperately wanted to save Mrs. Chen.
The midwife quickly took An Xuetang into the room.
Madam Chen in the room had indeed fainted. Her face was as pale as death. An Xuetang went over and felt her pulse, then took out silver needles and pricked the relevant acupoints on her abdomen.
The midwife was helpless at this point, she looked at An Xuetang's actions suspiciously, thinking to herself, "Could this possibly work"
An hour later, Madam Chen really miraculously woke up.
The midwife was overjoyed and exclaimed, “She’s awake! Mrs. Chen is awake!”
Mrs. Chen strained to open her eyes and saw a young girl in the room. She tried to speak, but An Xuetang stopped her, “Spare your strength, Mrs. Chen.”
An Xue Tang looked at the maidservant in the room, "Go and prepare some sugar water, quickly."
"Yes!" One of Chen's maids immediately went to fetch some sugar water.
An Xue Tang let Mrs. Chen drink some sugar water to replenish her energy, then continued to give her acupuncture to induce labor.
"The baby in your belly is just too big, making it difficult to give birth, but the position isn't off. As long as you keep trying, you can deliver safely."
Mrs. Chen's face broke into a smile, and she nodded slightly, "Good."
After An Xue Tang's acupuncture, Mrs. Chen's pain became more intense, and she started to sweat on her forehead.
The midwife was also ready, An Xuetang soothingly patted Chen's belly, "Madam Chen, you're doing great, the baby will be out soon."
Mrs. Chen gritted her teeth and began to breathe in and out according to An Xue Tang's method, clenching her jaw and straining.
The maidservant began to come and go in and out, changing the hot water in her hands countless times.
Finally, after an hour, the child was born with a cry that echoed throughout the room.
Mr. Chen outside the door was instantly overjoyed and wept with tears of joy, rushing into the room anxiously and saying, "Madam, are you alright"
"Mrs. Chen smiled through the pain, her weak voice replying, “Don’t worry, Eldest Brother, I'm fine.”
Mr. Chen let out a sigh of relief, folding his hands together and thanking the heavens above.
While standing beside him, Dr. Wang looked thoughtful, thinking to himself that the young girl was truly quite capable.ung Pavilion were looking for him, and even someone as capable as Han Yun couldn't find Mo Yunjing's whereabouts. What hope did she have going aloneNot only is it not a good time for her to be running...
