About ten years ago, there was a story about a famous doctor in S City: ——
His diagnosis was originally one yuan and four cents, and the special price was ten yuan. It was doubled late at night, and it was doubled again after leaving the city. One night, a girl from a family outside the city came to invite him because he was already impatient at that time, so he would not go there for a hundred yuan. They had to rely on him. When I went there, I just looked at it in a hurry, said, "It doesn't matter", opened a square, took a hundred yuan and left. The patient seemed to be very rich and came to invite him again the next day. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw the master greeting him with a smile and said, "I took my husband's medicine last night. It's much better, so I'll ask you to have a follow-up visit." He was still led into the room, and the old mother pulled the patient's hand out of the tent. He pressed it and was cold and had no pulse, so he nodded and said, "Well, I understand this disease." From the calm and calm way to the table, took the prescription paper, and picked up the pen and wrote: -
"Pay Yingyang one hundred yuan with the ticket." The following is the signature and the picture is.
"Sir, this disease seems to be very serious. I'm afraid it's a little bit worse when I use the medicine." The owner said behind his back.
"Yes," he said. So I opened another note: ——
"Pay Yingyang 200 yuan with the ticket." The following is still signed and marked.
In this way, the owner took the prescription and sent him out politely.
I have been dealing with this doctor for two whole years because he came to treat my father's illness the next day. Although it was already very famous at that time, it was not as impatient as it was; but the medical fee was already one yuan and four cents. In the city now, it is not surprising that ten yuan per consultation fee is not a surprise, but at that time, one yuan and four cents were already huge, so it was not easy to arrange it; let alone once every other day. He is probably a bit special. According to public opinion, medication is different. I don’t know the medicine, and what I think is the rare "medicine introduction". Once the new prescription is changed, I have to be busy. Buy medicine first, then look for medicine. He doesn't need to use two slices of "ginger" and ten slices of bamboo leaves and to remove the tip. At least it is reed root , and you must dig it by the river; once you have been frost for three years, you have to search for sugarcane for at least two or three days. But it's strange that there are probably no ones that cannot be purchased later.
According to public opinion, the magic lies in this place. There was a patient who had all kinds of medicines ineffective before. When I met Mr. Ye Tianshi, I only added a medicine to the old prescription: Wutong Leaf. With just one try, he recovered suddenly. "Doctors are the intention." It was autumn, and the sycamore trees predicted the autumn air. First, he did not take a hundred medicines, but now he used autumn qi to move it, and used qi to sensate qi, so... Although I don’t understand it, I admire it very much. I know that it is difficult to obtain any spiritual medicine. Those who seek immortality even have to fight their lives and run into the mountains to pick it.
has been like this for two years, and I gradually became familiar with each other and almost became friends. My father's edema is a daily risk and he is about to get up; I have gradually lost faith in sugarcane and other people who have been frost for three years, and it seems that I am not as enthusiastic as before when I was used to purchase medicine. At this time, one day he came to the clinic and asked about the condition, and said sincerely: ——
"I have used up all my knowledge. There is also a Mr. Chen Lianhe here, who is more capable than me. I recommend him to come and see, and I can write a letter. However, the disease is not important, but it can be cured very quickly through his hands..."
It seemed that everyone was a little unhappy on this day, and I still sent him into the sedan chair respectfully. When he came in, he saw his father's face look very strange and talked to everyone, saying that his illness was probably hopeless. Because he had been seeing it for two years, he had no effect and had a very familiar face, so he was a little uncomfortable. So when it was in crisis, he recommended a newbie to take care of himself, which had completely broken up with him. But what other way is there? Apart from him, there is only one famous doctor in this city, Chen Lianhe. I'll invite Chen Lianhe tomorrow.
Chen Lianhe's medical expenses are also one yuan and four cents. But the famous doctor in the previous episode had a round and fat face, but he grew fat: this is quite different. There are also different medications.The famous doctor in the previous episode could do it alone, but this time it was a little inappropriate for one person to do it alone, because he always had a special pill and a unique medicine introduction in his prescription. He has never used reed roots and sugar cane that have been frost for three years. The most common one is " cricket pair", with a small note on the side note: "You need the original mate, that is, the original one is in the same nest." It seems that insects also need chastity, renew strings or remarriage, and even the qualification to make medicine is lost. But this is not difficult for me. It is easy to get into the Baicao Garden. Ten pairs are tied up with threads and throw them into the boiling soup. However, there are " flat wood ten trees", and no one knows what it is. When asked the pharmacy, the countryman, the herb seller, the elderly, the scholar, the carpenter, they just shook their heads. They remembered the distant uncle, the old man who likes to plant a little flowers and trees, and ran to ask, and he knew that it was a small tree born under the trees in the mountains. It could bear red leaves like small coral beads, and they were usually called "Lao Fuda".
"I searched everywhere without any effort to get it." Yao Yin found it, but there was another special pill: Baigupi Pill. This "Faigupi Pill" is made of broken old drum skin ; edema is swelling, and once the broken drum skin is used, you can naturally defeat him. The resoluteness of the Qing Dynasty was about to hate the "foreign devils" and was preparing to attack them. He trained some soldiers and called the "Tiger God Camp". The meaning of taking tigers can eat sheep, and gods can subdue ghosts is that. Unfortunately, this magical medicine is only sold in the city, five miles away from my house, but it is not like the plain wood. It has to be explored secretly. After Mr. Chen Lianhe prescribed the prescription, he explained it to us earnestly and in detail.
"I have a kind of pill," said Mr. Chen Lianhe once, "Press it on the tongue, I think it will definitely work. Because the tongue is the spiritual seedling of the heart... The price is not expensive, it only costs two yuan per box..."
My father pondered for a while and shook his head.
"I will not have much effect on the medicine like this," said Mr. Chen Lianhe once again, "I think you can ask someone to take a look, but there are any injustices.... Medical can cure diseases, but not lives, right? Naturally, this may be a matter in the previous life..."
My father pondered for a while and shook his head.
All the national players can be resurrected. When we walk past the doctor's door, we can often see such a flat forehead. Now I have made a little concession, and even the doctor himself said, "Western medicine is good at surgery, and traditional Chinese medicine is good at internal medicine." But not only did S City not have Western medicine at that time, but no one had thought that there was a so-called Western medicine in the world. Therefore, no matter what, it could only be done by the disciples of Xuanyuan Qibo's legitimate sect. During the Xuanyuan period, the witch doctors were indistinguishable, so until now, his disciples still saw ghosts and felt that "the tongue is the spiritual seedling of the heart." This is the "life" of the Chinese, and even famous doctors cannot cure them.
refuses to use the elixir to point it on your tongue, and you can't think of "injustice". Naturally, what's the use of "Baigupi Pills" that have been taken for more than 100 days alone? Still unable to break the edema, my father finally lay on the bed and gasped. I also asked Mr. Chen Lianhe, this time it was a special prize, a 10-yuan yuan price. He still prescribed a prescription calmly, but he stopped using the Baigupi Pills, and the medicine was not very magical, so he only took a long time to decoct the medicine and pour it down, but it came back from the corner of his mouth.
From then on, I no longer dealt with Mr. Chen Lianhe. I only saw him sitting in the fast sedan chair of three sedan chairmen on the street, and I heard that he is still healthy now. While practicing medicine, he is also working on a journal of traditional Chinese medicine. He is struggling with Western medicine who is only good at surgery.
The Chinese and Western ideas are indeed a little different. I heard that when the filial sons in China were about to "sincerely sinned and cause trouble to provoke their parents", they would buy a few kilograms of ginseng and boil them in soup. They hope that their parents would have more weather, even if they were half a day. One of my medical teachers taught me the doctor's position: Those who can be treated should be treated, and those who cannot be treated should be treated without pain. ——But this gentleman is naturally a Western medicine.
My father gasped for a long time, and even I felt very troubled to hear it, but no one could help him.Sometimes I thought as if the lightning flashed, "It's better to finish the breath soon..." I immediately felt that this thought shouldn't be, it was a crime; but at the same time I felt that this thought was really legitimate, and I loved my father very much. Even now, I still think so.
In the morning, Mrs. Yan, who lives in a door, came in. She is a ritual-savvy woman and says we shouldn't wait in vain. So he changed his clothes; burned the paper ingots and some kind of "Gao Wang Jing" into ashes, wrapped it in paper and pinched it into his fist...
"Call me, your father is going to die. Cry quickly!" said Mrs. Yan.
"Father! Father!" I shouted.
"Speak loudly! He can't hear it. Why don't you scream?!"
"Father! Father!!"
His face, which had calmed down, suddenly became nervous, and he opened his eyes slightly, as if there was some pain.
"Call! Cry quickly!" she urged.
"Father!!"
"What?... Don't yell... No..." He said softly, gasping for a hurry again. After a while, he returned to his original state and calmed down.
"Father!!" I called him until he sniffed.
I still hear this voice from me at that time. Every time I hear it, I feel that this is my biggest mistake to my father.
