Ying Bao was also busy preparing pills for Dad and the others.

This pill is actually steamed with date paste, red bean paste and wheat flour, then shaped into small dumplings about the size of a bird's egg, with Wudingzhi mixed in.

A total of fifty were made, which was enough for Dad to take one pill every day, and the remaining ones could be given to the eldest and second uncles.

On the day of work, before dawn, the villagers came to Jiang Sanlang's house with shovels, chisels and baskets on their backs, and some carried burdens to invite him to come with them.

Jiang Sanlang also carried the burden, put the tools and bedding on it, and blended into the crowd with the eldest and second brothers who also carried the burden.

Yingbao got up early and stood at the gate of the hospital with her mother-in-law to watch her father leave.

"Mom, where will dad work as a river worker?" Ying Bao asked.

Chun Niang led her daughter back to the house: "I heard it was in Simen Town, which is dozens of miles away." She didn't know the specific location.

River workers are not sure of the specific location. A river section is more than ten or twenty miles from one end to the other, so river workers dig channels on both sides of the river bank to remove river mud and clear siltation.

After this section of the river is finished, we have to go to the next place.

"Bao'er, you can sleep a little longer." Chun Niang said, "It will still be dawn for a while."

"Yes." Yingbao climbed onto the kang, took off her cotton-padded clothes, and got into grandma's bed.

The cotton bedding is really warm, I don't want to get out even if I lie in it.

At this moment, the two younger brothers were sleeping alone in another bed, snoring.

Yingbao is very happy that she can finally sleep with her mother today.

Chun Niang lay down on the kang, held her daughter in her arms, and said with a smile, "Bao'er hasn't been so close to my mother for a long time."

Ying Bao nuzzled her mother: "Because Bao'er has grown up."

"Yes, my baby is almost four years old in the blink of an eye." This is still one year old. If calculated in imaginary years, her baby would be five years old after the Chinese New Year.

Mother and daughter cuddled each other and fell asleep unconsciously.

Yingbao still had to go to school early the next morning.

Erni and Huzi came to call her.

"Ying Bao, that Chen Zhao didn't come to the school yesterday."

Recently, Erni is keen on talking about all kinds of gossip, "The husband said that she will never come again."

Ying Bao was not surprised at all.

Han suddenly sent Chen Zhao here with ulterior motives. Now that his hope has failed, he will definitely not let Chen Zhao go to school again.

That kind of short-sighted woman, in addition to wanting to have a son all day long, is only vicious in her heart.

But she never thought that she was vicious. Instead, she felt aggrieved. She felt that everyone owed her and felt sorry for her. She beat her children because they annoyed her and deserved to be beaten.

"Also, eldest brother said he has a wife." Erni chattered as she walked.

Ying Bao blinked, "Which company are you talking about?"

"It seems to be from Chujia Village." Erni said, "I heard from my aunt that my cousin is going to visit us tomorrow."

Jiang Cheng is already sixteen during the Chinese New Year, so she should really be called daughter-in-law.

When they arrived at the school, Erni and Huzi went to the next classroom. Yingbao also had class with sister Wen Shu, but today there was another Wen Hengyin.

Wen Hengyin had been studying for a long time, but because he refused to study seriously, his parents deliberately placed him in Class B so that he could receive elementary education together with the children who were new to school.

But during this time, he suddenly became determined to improve himself, and Mrs. Wen called him to Class A again to study medical classics with Ying Bao.

"Now that you have finished studying the Nei Jing, we will give free clinics to the villagers today, just so I can see how you have learned."

Xiao Zhenniang said: "I have already told Muramasa that he will invite the villagers to come over and give us a consultation. Then he will set up a table in the thatched shed at the door and check the pulse. I also have some anti-cold decoctions here, which are free of charge. Send it to those who come for medical consultation.”

Ying Bao opened her eyes wide when she heard this.

She can actually take people's pulses and diagnose them?

Although she knew that this was just a simulated medical consultation, it was a rare opportunity and she would definitely seize it to give herself one more practical experience.

The three of them excitedly carried the tables and chairs to the grass shed at the entrance of the school.

At this time, the shed has been surrounded by cloth to keep out the wind and cold, leaving only one entrance and exit.

After placing the diagnostic tools in place, the three little figures lined up behind three tables, waiting quietly for the "patients" to come to the door.

Within a quarter of an hour, I heard the greetings between the clan leader and Mrs. Wen coming from outside, and then several people walked in.

Mrs. Wen was in front, the clan leader and Chen Cun were behind, and they were followed by several older men.

Ying Bao was a little nervous, so she stood up together with Wen Shu and Wen Hengyin, bowed to the visitors, and then sat down again to check their pulses one by one.

Before taking the pulse, Yingbao will observe the patient's complexion, then look at the color of the whites of his eyes, lips and tongue, and whether there is swelling on the cheeks and eyelids.

If everything is normal, it means there is nothing wrong with this person.

Then check for pulse again.

Yingbao was the first to find the clan leader's pulse.

Take the pulse with three fingers, and the pulse under the fingers will feel fluent and smooth, calm and gentle, soft and strong. This is a flat pulse, indicating that the patriarch is very healthy.

After taking the pulse, Ying Bao wrote it down and left it for Mrs. Wen to check the pulse again.

Then there is Muramasa Chen Sanyou.

His pulse is as tight as a string, the pulse is straight and long, the pulse is strong, the pulse is hard, it rises and falls straight, it is a string pulse.

People with this kind of pulse condition mostly have symptoms of strong liver qi and weak stomach qi.

Ying Bao wrote the truth, and finally said: "Grandpa Muramasa, does your mouth feel bitter every morning? From now on, you should eat less sweets and rice, and drink more tea to be healthy."

Chen Sanyou was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said: "As expected of the young doctor in our village, you can diagnose this? Yes, I like sweets the most, and I feel sore in the mouth every morning when I get up."

Ying Bao said seriously: "Eating too many sweets will hurt the spleen and stomach. If you continue to eat them, your liver fire will become stronger and your meridians will become harder, which will eventually lead to a stroke."

Chen Sanyou nodded, "Listen to Yingbao Xiaolangzhong, I will definitely eat less sweet and greasy food in the future."

Recently, my son has grown golden ears, so he often cooks some of them and adds caramel to them. As a result, the bitterness in his mouth becomes worse for some reason, and sometimes his fingers feel stiff and numb.

Mrs. Wen checked Chen Sanyou's pulse again and saw that it was similar to what Ying Bao had written, so she couldn't help but nod.

Next, Yingbao saw a few more patients. These people had more or less problems, but the problems were not serious.

Soon the morning passed, and people watching the excitement and medical treatment went home one after another, and the three young doctors also closed their stalls and went back.

Yingbao gained a lot from this free clinic, more than she had from reading the entire Suwen article.

Therefore, doctors cannot always read books. They must apply what they have learned and combine it with their own experience to diagnose the disease.

It's a pity that she hasn't learned the prescriptions yet and doesn't know how to cure the disease.

Wen Shu and Wen Hengyin also learned a lot. The three of them chatted about the pulse conditions they encountered and speculated on what disease the person had.

Returning home at noon, Ying Bao was completely immersed in the feeling of detecting her pulse, and did not notice that someone was sneaking behind the haystack to peek.

Erni and Huzi sent Yingbao home, and then went back to the uncle's house for dinner.

As soon as Ying Bao entered the yard, she saw her two younger brothers running over and showing her sister some large letters in their hands.

"Not bad, not bad. You two are really smart. Later, my sister will take you to ride a deer." Yingbao patted the two brothers' heads and praised, "It's better than what my sister originally wrote."

The two brothers grinned widely and ran back to the house happily, carrying crooked crab claws.

They want to write a few more pictures to show to their sister.

Ying Bao rubbed her eyes and sighed.

Alas, there is a long way to go to raise a younger brother.
