Chapter 63: Healing the Cow
Old Yu’s family only rushed over after something happened to the cow shed. It wasn’t that they didn’t hear that something had happened to Mrs. Zhao, but they didn’t like to watch the Zhao family’s commotion. They also didn’t care about the Zhao family’s matters. Shuanzi’s family was different. His family was honest, and they raised cows. They were quite popular in the village.
Uncle and Aunt were still busy cooking for New Year’s Eve in front of the stove. The ones who came were the Yu brothers.
The two of them first saw their third aunt and Yu Wan behind the crowd and went forward to greet them.
Yu Feng: “Third Aunt, Ah Wan.”
Yu Song: “Third Aunt.” He ignored Yu Wan.
!!Yu Wan smiled to herself. What an awkward child.
“What happened?” Yu Song looked at the crowd in front of him and asked.
Yu Wan said regretfully, “The cow shed collapsed. The cow doesn’t seem to be in good condition.”
Yu Song snorted. “I didn’t ask you! I asked Third Aunt!”
Third Aunt rolled her eyes at him resentfully.
Yu Song rubbed his nose resentfully and went to pay attention to the commotion inside.
“Just like Aunt Zhang’s cow two years ago, it suddenly became lame and died not long after.”
“Will Shuanzi’s cow be fine? This is the last cow in the village…”
“I was hoping to borrow it at the beginning of spring to plow the land.”
“What are we going to do?”
The villagers discussed anxiously.
Although Yu Feng could not see the situation inside, he could hear most of it. He had an impression of Aunt Zhang’s cow. It seemed that it was also injured first. Then, they found someone to treat it and it could continue working in the fields. However, after a few days, the cow’s body became hot. Half a month later, the cow died.
If Shuanzi’s cow was really the same as Aunt Zhang’s cow, then it was really dangerous.
Yu Feng suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Yu Wan. “Ah Wan, you…”
Just as he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Aunt Bai’s voice. “Make way, make way! Old Cui is here!”
Not far away, Shuanzi ran over with a local white-haired doctor.
The local doctor was old and out of breath from running. He almost fainted when he arrived.
This was the local doctor who had treated Aunt Zhang’s cow. He was a doctor from the neighboring village. He usually treated people and occasionally looked at livestock. His surname was Cui, and the villagers called him Old Cui.
“Hurry up!” Shuanzi dragged the Old Cui who was panting into his backyard.
After Old Cui entered the courtyard, his first reaction was not to treat the cow’s illness. Instead, he looked at the collapsed shed and said strangely, “This cow shed collapsed strangely…”
As soon as Shuanzi let go, he saw that he did not follow and hurriedly urged, “Aiya, stop dawdling! The cow is about to die!”
Old Cui walked towards the injured cow and frowned as he muttered, “It’s strange.”
Madam Jiang, who was behind the crowd, played with the ta.s.sel in her hand indifferently. The cold sunlight shone on her thin face, making her skin look almost transparent.
Old Cui began to diagnose the cow.
At the side, Aunt Bai said, “Can he treat the cow? Aunt Zhang’s cow was treated by him and it died.”
Old Cui was unhappy. He turned around with a black face. “What do you mean by that? It was going to die that day! I was the one who renewed its life for half a month!”
Aunt Bai pursed her lips. “You even said that Ah Wan was going to die that day, but isn’t Ah Wan alive and well?”
Old Cui thought for a while, as if recalling who Ah Wan was. After a while, he wondered, “That doll survived? How is that possible?”
“Why not? I think you’re just a quack.” Aunt Bai snorted.
It was no wonder that Aunt Bai thought this way. It was really because in all the years that Old Cui had been a local doctor, he had never seriously treated illness. Yet, he still boasted that he was a divine doctor.
“Back then…” Old Cui started bragging about his “divine doctor” history again.
Shuanzi interrupted him. “Can it be treated? If not, I’ll hire someone else!”
Old Cui shut up. He opened his mouth again.
Shuanzi said, “Go and treat it!”
Old Cui was completely speechless as he obediently diagnosed the cow.
This consultation lasted for half a day.
“How is it?” Shuanzi’s father couldn’t help but ask.
The fingertips of Old Cui’s left hand twitched, and a complicated expression flashed across his face. “It can’t be cured.”
“Then what are we waiting for? Hurry up and go to town to find a doctor!” Aunt Bai urged.
The doctors in town were all doctors who treated people, so they might not know how to treat cows. The village headman thought of this and said thoughtfully, “Let’s go to the courier station to hire a doctor.”
“I just went to the courier station a few days ago. The courier doctor has returned to his hometown.” A deep voice sounded from behind the crowd. Everyone turned around and saw Yu Feng squeezing through the crowd.
Yu Feng looked at the village headman and said, “Let my sister try.”
“Your sister? Ah Wan?” The village headman was stunned.
Yu Feng nodded. “Ah Wan has cured the horse at the courier station. She might have a way to deal with this cow.”
“This…” He had never heard that Ah Wan knew medicine. The village headman looked at Yu Wan, who was walking over calmly, with doubt.
Was it an illusion or something? He felt that this girl was different from before. Old Cui also looked at Yu Wan. That’s right, it was that girl, but that girl’s pulse clearly showed that she’s going to die and couldn’t be treated. How did she come back to life? And how did she recover so quickly?
The village headman did not stop Yu Wan so she walked straight to the cow and squatted down. She first checked the external injuries and eliminated the possibility of fractures. Then, she focused on the cow’s lame left thigh. She saw that it was severely swollen. There were no obvious wounds, but there was a partial hemorrhage.
“It’s a contusion.” Yu Wan diagnosed the cow.
The contusion was a closed injury to the skin caused by a blunt external force. The symptoms were the same as the cow of Shuanzi. In the later stages, there might be symptoms such as fever, decreased appet.i.te, and dysfunction.
The cows could usually heal themselves if it’s mild injuries, but this cow was seriously injured and they had no choice but to interfere.
Apart from that, Yu Wan also found an old injury that had yet to heal. It could be said that the old injury was the key to the contusion. However, the swelling and pain were not obvious. If not for this incident, even she would not have discovered it.
Fortunately, she had discovered it. Otherwise, the consequences would have been serious.
“Can it be treated?” Shuanzi did not understand what was wrong or right. He was only concerned about whether it could be treated.
“Yes,” Yu Wan said without thinking.
“How do you plan to treat it?” Old Cui blurted out. It was unknown if he was worried or simply curious.
Yu Wan said truthfully, “Ninety four grams each of Rhubarb, Amur Corktree Bark, Turmeric, and Angelica Dahurica. Thirty eight grams each of Rhizoma Arisaematis, Tangerine Peel, Atractylodes, Trichosanthin, Magnolia, and Licorice. They should be grinded to powder, then mixed with sesame oil. It should be thick and not diluted. This is an external ointment.
There’s also internal medicine. Thirty grams of Ligustic.u.m Wallichii, thirty eight grams of Corydalis, eleven grams of Safflower, and ten grams of Angelica Dahurica. This is also to be grinded to powder and mixed with boiling water. This is the dosage for one time. Let’s buy two dosages to see the effect before confirming if we need to change the prescription.”
