Chapter 618
Jishitang is a time-honored pharmacy, and naturally there are many patients who come to see you. In this world, there are two shops that are most likely to have customers, one is a grain shop, and the other is a medicine shop.
The period from morning to noon is usually the busiest time for drug stores.
You also need to be early to see a doctor.
Because there were so many people waiting, Manbao was able to see a doctor much faster in the end, and the time to record the pulse was faster.
After observing several of the old doctor's prescriptions, she had given up trying to identify his handwriting, and was so resigned to only remembering her own pulse.
By the time the last patient had finished reading, it was already past lunch time. Zhou Lijun was so hungry that her chest pressed against her back. She was so considerate that she went to the street and bought some naan bread and soup. As soon as they finished the consultation
, she immediately invited Dr. Ji and the store clerk to have lunch together.
Doctor Ji nodded slightly with a gentle expression, and led them to take the food to the backyard and eat in the back.
Only then did Man Bao realize that there was a yard behind the medicine shop, and there were many shelves set up in the yard, where medicinal materials were dried, and the scent of medicine floated in the air.
Seeing that she couldn't move her eyes away, Doctor Ji smiled, sat down on the stool, and asked, "Why, haven't you seen so many medicinal materials?"
Manbao nodded blankly. At this time, Keke's ding-dong sound was constantly ringing in her mind. Keke read in a particularly clear electronic voice: "Discover ancient plants...Discover rare plants...Discover no records."
animal carcasses..."
If Koko has any mental activity, it must be rolling happily at this time. It knows that as long as the host communicates more with the outside world, it will definitely gain something.
Isn’t medical skill related to the animals and plants in the world?
Nowadays, people are tired of synthetic drugs and prefer to return to natural medicines, which is exactly what ancient Chinese medicine did.
Seeing Man Bao stunned for so long, Doctor Ji couldn't help but look up at her and asked: "How many kinds of herbal medicine can you recognize?"
It took Manbao a while to come back to his senses and said: "I only memorized the names of medicinal materials, but I have never seen them."
Doctor Ji frowned slightly when he heard this, "Have you never recognized the medicinal materials?"
Shouldn’t studying medicine start here?
For example, the apprentices in their pharmacy all start by identifying medicinal materials, and then they have to grab medicine at the front desk and learn to organize the medicinal materials.
Once you have mastered all this, three or two years will pass. If you meet a master who doesn't like to teach, it may take three to five years.
After identifying all the medicinal materials, I started to teach medical books, and finally started to feel the pulse and prescribe prescriptions...
If you don't have ten years of hard work, you can't even think about starting a military mission.
Even if you start an apprenticeship at the age of eight, you will still be eighteen when you can start your apprenticeship. And those with less qualifications may have to grab medicines from the counter for seven or eight years before they can start taking a pulse and prescribing prescriptions.
But now she says that she hasn't started to recognize medicinal materials yet?
Doctor Ji frowned and asked, "If you don't recognize the medicinal materials, how can you prescribe them?"
"I've memorized all the medicinal materials and their properties," Man Bao said, "I've also memorized a lot of prescriptions."
Doctor Ji blinked and said, "You have memorized the properties of the medicine, but you didn't recognize the ingredients?"
"I don't have that many medicinal materials."
Doctor Ji was suspicious, "Neither does your husband?"
Man Bao looked at him quietly.
Zhou Lijun looked around, then smiled and said: "Doctor Ji, let's eat first, and then we'll talk after eating."
Doctor Ji thought for a while and nodded, "After you finish eating, recite to me the medicinal materials and properties you wrote down, as well as the prescription."
Man Bao's face was a little bitter, "When will it happen? I promised my husband that I would go back to study in the afternoon."
Doctor Ji said nothing.
Man Bao knew there was no room for negotiation, and she felt a little downcast.
Half of the medicinal materials Man Bao carried came from the medical books she found in Mr. Zhuang and the Bai family, which contained the names and properties of the medicinal materials; the other half was sorted out by Teacher Mo for her, which was more detailed and well-organized, making it easy to memorize.
.
She has been carrying it for several years.
Some of the medicines compiled by Teacher Mo only exist in books, while others are being continuously improved over time.
Their records of medicinal properties are more complete and their research is more thorough.
So Man Bao felt that one afternoon was not enough to carry so much stuff.
And some times were so long ago that she really couldn't remember them. Unless someone mentioned the name of the medicine, she could memorize its properties.
Not to mention that it also includes prescriptions.
Man Bao sighed, and after finishing the meal, he stood at the table with his hands behind his back and recited the medicinal materials and their properties to Dr. Ji.
Doctor Ji took a sip of tea and listened with half-closed eyes. After listening for three quarters of an hour, his face became more serious.
Zhou Lijun gave his sister-in-law a bowl of water, and Manbao drank it all in one gulp. Then he continued to carry it for another half an hour, while Manbao looked for water again.
At this time, Doctor Ji had already sat up straight. After seeing her drink the water, he said: "You don't have to carry the medicine. You should carry the prescription that you remember."
Manbao thought for a while and decided to start from the beginning, "Wuhu Decoction is mainly used to treat wind-heat obstruction in the lungs, body heat, cough and phlegm, 7 points of ephedra, 10 grams of peeled almonds, 4 points of licorice, fine tea
Eight grams of white gypsum fried for fifteen minutes..."
As Man Bao recited it unhurriedly, Doctor Ji slowly opened his mouth. For a long, long time, he covered his chest and tried to stand up, but found that he had been sitting in a sitting position for too long, and his waist and back were numb.
Zhou Lijun didn't notice at all. She was holding her chin and looking at her sister-in-law with starry eyes. She knew that her sister-in-law was studying medicine on her own and she also knew that her sister-in-law was very powerful, but she didn't know that her sister-in-law was so powerful.
I have to read so many books, but I have memorized so many medical books. It is really amazing.
Man Bao lowered his head and poured himself another bowl of water. Then he cleared his throat and continued to recite. Doctor Ji finally stood up from the chair and wanted to tell Man Bao to stop memorizing, when he suddenly saw him standing at the entrance.
Shopkeeper Lao Zheng.
I don't know how long he stood there.
Shopkeeper Lao Zheng also looked at Man Bao in a daze, and when he noticed Doctor Ji's gaze, he came back to look at him, nodded slightly to him, and finally looked at Man Bao again before turning around and leaving.
Only then did Doctor Ji stop Man Bao, who was still racking his brains to memorize the prescriptions: "Okay, I know you have memorized a lot of prescriptions."
Manbao breathed a sigh of relief. She couldn't recite it anymore. What's the prescription for rhubarb and aconite soup?
Man Bao swallowed her saliva and managed to regain consciousness after Zhou Lijun tugged on her sleeve, "Doctor Ji, do I need to know the medicinal materials first?"
She tried hard to make her eyes look sincere.
Who would have thought that Doctor Ji didn't even look her in the eyes, he just sat down on the table and said, "That's right, you need to identify the medicinal materials first. Memorizing them is not enough, you also have to recognize them. Come tomorrow, in the morning
