March 26, 2017Ai Hrist
Doctor Wu couldnât help but ask. Housekeeper Caoâs face also looks uneasy with the medicine boxâs appearance earlier but he didnât dare to ask. But now that Doctor Wu took the initiative⦠â¦
Both of them was eagerly looking at Lin Chujiu while waiting for her reply.
Lin Chujiu knows that when she took out the medicine box in the medical system, she will attract peopleâs attentions. But, she doesnât want to explain too much so she just said: âThis was left by my master.â If they still canât understand, they just need to find her legendary master.
âMaster?â Housekeeper Cao looks so surprised. Doctor Wu doesnât know Lin Chujiuâs ident.i.ty, but Housekeeper Cao never heard that the eldest miss of the Lin Family has a master.
âDoes Housekeeper Cao think that I learned medicine without a teacher?â Lin Chujiu said half in a joke. But, Housekeeper Cao didnât dare to answer and just shook his head again and again.
Now that she finished explaining about the medicine box. Lin Chujiu no longer speak and just took out a white robe. She also didnât forget to wrap up her hair neatly with a cap. In just one look, a person will know that this is not the first time she had done this.
When Lin Chujiu had done those things. Doctor Wu, Shanhu, Feicui and the other two maidservantâs eyes got wide open and showed full of doubts. But⦠â¦
Lin Chujiu didnât explain the meaning of her actions. She just wears the white robe and put on a face mask. She then picks out all the required medicine and put them on a tray. But, when she turned around, she saw Doctor Wu in front of her. Lin Chujiu kindly asked: âCould you let me pa.s.s?â
This time, Doctor Wu no longer stop her and just obediently let her pa.s.s.
He would like to see if this young girl is really more skilled than him.
Cao Linâs body turn red because of his high fever and his chapped lips turn white. With all these signs, Lin Chujiu doesnât need the medical system to know that Cao Lin is severely dehydrated and his life is really in danger.
Lin Chuji pinch Cao Linâs mouth to feed him high doses antipyretic to quickly lessen his fever.
Housekeeper Cao saw what Lin Chujiu did, but he didnât dare to say anything. And although his heart still has some doubt with her actions, he also didnât try to ask because heâs so afraid to disturb her concentration in saving his sonâs life.
However, Doctor Wu is different. He is also a doctor, so when he saw Lin Chujiu put a medicine to Cao Linâs mouth. He couldnât help but frown and asked: âGuniang (Young lady), what did you feed to Cao Lin?â
âA pill for fever.â Lin Chujiu doesnât to want answer much. Sheâs afraid that Doctor Wu would ask more so she just simply added: â My masterâs secret medicine.â
With those four words, Doctor Wu couldnât help but hold back his other questions.
In addition to Cao Linâs high fever, he is also severely dehydrated. So, she must immediately replace the loss water in his body. And the best way to do this is by infusion. Lin Chujiu wanted to get some glucose inside the medical system. But⦠â¦
There are so many eyes that are looking at her right now. Sheâs so afraid that if she suddenly gets those things and uses them. She wonât be able to explain. So⦠â¦
âGet salt and cold water.â Lin Chujiu can now only use the most common way to hydrate Cao Lin.
âI will go and get them.â Housekeeper Cao turned to go, but was stopped by Feicui: âHousekeeper Cao, Iâll go and get them fast.â
When she finished saying those, she then goes out while trotting.
Lin Chujiu nodded her head in satisfaction. She went near to her medicine box to get some anti-inflammatory drugs but her hand froze when she saw a syringe on the side.
Lin Chujiu wanted to inject a drug on Cao Lin, but she doesnât want to be treated like a demon and gets burned alive. If she will use so many things that other people doesnât know what good will brought it to her.
So, Lin Chujiu took an anti-inflammatory drug tablet and feed it to Cao Lin the same way earlier.
The effects of the anti-inflammatory drug and antipyretic drug are not so fast. And Feicui wonât arrive very soon so Lin Chujiu decided to brought out her surgical gloves and open the new medical surgical package that she will use. After preparing the things that she will need, Lin Chujiu sat down beside the bed and ready herself to clean Cao Linâs wound.
âThese are?â Doctor Wu asked her again.
But this time, Lin Chujiu didnât answer and instead look at him displeased: âExcuse me, but could you please walk two steps away on the side. Youâre blocking the light.â
When Doctor Wu walk near her to ask. The light behind her got blocked and she couldnât see clearly the wound and start cleaning.
âUh ⦠â¦â Doctor Wuâs facial expression change, but he obediently move to the side and stand near Housekeeper Cao. Shanhu didnât wait for Lin Chujiuâs word and just move back on her own.
After all, Lin Chujiuâs cold face looks very scary ⦠â¦
Doctor Wu didnât let the two maidservant dress Cao Lin with a robe. Which made things more convenient to Lin Chujiu.
So, Lin Chujiu could directly cut the yellowish and stinky bandages on Cao Linâs stomach with her scissors ⦠â¦
After she removes the bandages, the reddish wound and the foul smell got exposed to them. Shanhuâs face change in expression and could help but puke. But, Lin Chujiu doesnât have any facial expression. Instead, she started disinfecting and cleaning the wound, revealing all the dead skin on the surface.
When HousekeeperCao saw his sonâs situations his lips started trembling, but he didnât dare to cry out loud.
Lin Chujiu looked up but didnât comfort Housekeeper Cao. Instead, she picked up small medical scissors and cut off the half necrotic and rotten muscles on the wound.
DoctorWu understands that letting those necrotic muscles stay will just hinder the healing of the wound. But the way Lin Chujiu cut, she might cut open and need to sew the wound again: âGuniang (Young lady), do you ⦠â¦â
DoctorWuâs words havenât finished, but Lin Chujiu interrupted him and said: âI am the one who sewn Cao Linâs wound before, so I know what I am doing more than you.â The wound is definite rotten inside, if she wonât cut them out the wound wonât get better and wonât look good.
Doctor Wu isnât really scared, but the family member just stays quiet so he asks on behalf of him. Doctor Wu no longer say a word but look toward Housekeeper Cao and send a signal for him to speak. But⦠â¦
Lin Chujiu is his last hope. So even if he doesnât completely understand what Lin Chujiu is doing he didnât dare to speak out. Heâs so afraid to annoy Lin Chujiu and stop treating his son.
Housekeeper Cao doesnât care how strange is her method as long as his son would be saved.
No one asked a question, so Lin Chujiu naturally wouldnât need to explain. She just cut and cleans the wound one by one. After that, she carefully cut open the suture of the wound.
The pus and blood mixed together and flow on the blanket with a hole. Cao Linâs wounds look so terrible so Shanhu didnât dare to look anymore. While Housekeeper and Doctor Wuâs hair on the scalp started tingling. The only person who didnât get affected is Lin Chujiu alone.
After the suture was cut opened, Lin Chujiu started cutting inside the rotten muscles. But this time, Feicui arrive with the salt and cold water. When Feicui came in and saw Cao Linâs open stomach she almost drop the water on her hands. Luckily, Shanhu was able to catch it on time.
âThis slave deserve to die.â Feicui quickly pleaded guilty. But, Lin Chujiu didnât pay her attention and just told Shanhu to put the water on the table.
Lin Chujiu stops what sheâs doing. Then, she wipes off the blood and the pus on her hands and removes the gloves.
After that, Lin Chujiu started adding a salt on the cold water and mixed them. She then gets a small funnel on her medicine box and put it on Cao Linâs mouth and started giving him the salty water.
You can make him drink water this way?
In these past few days, they tried making Cao Lin drink water. But, they just couldnât and failed⦠â¦
