Chapter 93 The Old Man

Just after Zhao Mu arrived at the pharmacy, the owner of the pharmacy greeted him graciously.

"What kind of medicine is this little brother planning to grab?" The owner of the drugstore with a kind face and good looks said with a smile.

"Boss, help me grab some herbs." Zhao Mu said directly.

Then the owner of the pharmacy snatched some herbs according to his words, but just as he was about to pack Zhao Mu, Zhao Mu suddenly rushed into the counter and grabbed the owner's hand, and then carefully stared at the wild ginseng in the owner's hand. .

"Boss, what I want is wild ginseng that invigorates the middle and nourishes qi...you, there seems to be something wrong." Zhao Mu suddenly stared fiercely at the seemingly benevolent old man.

At this time, the owner of the store suddenly changed his eyes, then grabbed the medicinal material in his hand, and said in surprise: "Oh, sorry. Brother, I made a mistake this time, I almost made a mistake, this root is American ginseng, not wild ginseng Shen, I’ll change one for you right now.”

Zhao Mu sneered, but he didn't break the boss's plan.

In fact, what the boss is holding is not expensive wild ginseng, let alone American ginseng.It is an ordinary dehydrated radish, which can be sold directly as ginseng by profiteers only after a simple treatment and then pasted with ginseng whiskers.

And the most well-made ones can even be confused with real ones. Generally speaking, old Chinese medicine practitioners who have been practicing medicine for decades may be directly deceived by them if they are in a trance for a while.

But the radish in the shop owner's hand is an extremely rough one, not to mention the kind of specialized Chinese medicine, even ordinary people who know a little bit about medicine can recognize his true face directly after careful inspection.

And the shop owner in front of him who smelled of medicinal materials could never be the kind of person who knew nothing about medicinal materials, and he would never make a joke about not being able to distinguish ginseng from radish.

Then the fact is very obvious, the shop owner is shoddy, and even wants to use radish, which is a discouraged thing, to replace ginseng, a precious medicinal material for invigorating Qi.

But Zhao Mu didn't point it out on the spot, but then Zhao Mu watched the store owner prepare all the medicinal materials in the prescription, and then said slowly: "Boss, can you be in charge of decocting medicine here?"

It stands to reason that this pharmacy has no way to cook medicine, and the general store owner will let patients buy medicine pots and other props here to go back and cook by themselves.But now the shop owner is also guilty, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Okay, originally the shop is not responsible for making medicine, but now I see that you seem to be in a hurry, so you can make medicine here. "

In this way, Zhao Mu personally brewed the medicinal soup in the back of the store, then directly put the medicinal soup into a special utensil while it was hot, and then brought it to the hospital.

On the way, Zhao Mu also took the time to call Xu Jing, asking her to inform her colleagues in Beijin to search the store of this unscrupulous boss who regards human life as nothing.

Just when Zhao Mu put away his mobile phone and held the plastic bag containing the medicine cans in one hand, he suddenly saw a hawker selling oranges on the side of the road and bought two catties of oranges directly.

Zhao Mu walked into the hospital with a medicinal soup in one hand and an orange in the other. Everyone thought Zhao Mu was here to visit a friend.

At this moment, the old man was wandering boredly in the hospital, and his wife quietly went to the attending doctor who had treated the old man before, and asked sadly, "Doctor, how long do you think my wife will have to live?"

The doctor in charge also seemed very conflicted, and then he let out a long sigh, and then said: "Well, since this is the case, I will not hide it from you, ma'am. The cancer cells on your wife's body have completely spread, and now if we start conservative treatment immediately, we will It is estimated that it can last up to three months."

After hearing the doctor's words, the old lady frowned tightly, the wrinkles on her face were vertical and horizontal, and the weathered color on her face became more intense. Then she asked: "There is really no other way? I heard that chemotherapy or something can go away." Cure cancer."

"Auntie, chemotherapy is only effective for patients with early or early stages of cancer. Even for patients with advanced cancer, I will recommend patients to try a few times to see if the effect is out of the intention of not giving up... But the old man is now in the terminal stage of cancer , forcibly administering chemotherapy will not only cause great pain, but also cause further damage to his body."

At this time, the old lady let out a long sigh, as if something had been pulled out of her body, and said in a dazed way: "Then, the doctor, you should do your work first."

As soon as she got up, the old lady took out a 50 yuan ticket from her bosom, and tremblingly handed it to the doctor.

"Doctor, I heard that you need to pay to sign up for an expert account. You see, I have troubled you for so long. You can take the 50 yuan and buy some candy for your child."

Seeing this, the doctor immediately got up and said, "Don't be like this, ma'am, your family is in average condition and you don't have any children. Our dean decided to waive all the medical expenses for you two, so you don't have to pay me any more." .”

"Oh, I know that you doctors are kind-hearted people, but I'm really sorry that I don't give you this money..." the old lady sighed.

"Actually... Our hospital also has an unfeeling request, I hope you can consider it." The doctor suddenly hesitated and stammered.

"Doctor, if you have anything to say, just tell me. If you hadn't waived my wife's medical expenses, my wife might not be willing to spend so much money for himself."

"Auntie, as you know, your wife's disease is very special. There is no symptom at all in the early and mid-term, and it is impossible to detect related diseases without the detection of sophisticated instruments... So in order to avoid similar tragedies in the future, we hope You can after your wife dies..." The doctor said this, looked into the eyes of the old lady, and suddenly couldn't continue.

"Doctor, tell me, my wife told me before that your hospital waived my wife's medical expenses, so no matter what happens in the future, you must treat everyone in your hospital as a benefactor. Naturally, I have nothing to do with benefactors." Help."

Hearing this, the doctor sighed, and then said: "We thought that after the old man passed away, we would hand over the old man's body to us for medical dissection, to study the pathology of this disease, to deepen our understanding of this disease, and to face it in the future. Similar diseases can be detected and treated early.”

Just after the doctor gritted his teeth and finished the matter in one breath, he happened to see the old lady fell silent.

Originally, the doctor had already had expectations in his heart before he said this. It stands to reason that the lower the education level, the more rigid the feudal customs.And those who are highly educated are also more accepting of some new things.

Therefore, for two elderly people who did not receive any education and only lived on farming, the concept of donating their remains for dissection after death was basically impossible for them to accept.

If it weren't for the extremely important pathological research on the elderly, it would be impossible for the doctor to bite the bullet and tell such a cruel truth to an old lady who is about to accept the pain of losing her husband.

The doctor also thought about what would happen after he said this. The old lady might immediately reject the matter, or even yell at her. Even if the originally kind-hearted old lady suddenly turned ferocious, it would not surprise the doctor.

But now the old lady's silence for several minutes was beyond the doctor's expectation.

Just when the doctor was about to bite the bullet and break the terrible silence, the old lady said in a hoarse voice: "Oh, okay. My wife usually only wants to repay your kindness. I will definitely not refuse."

"That's great. Please persuade your wife more. Regarding this matter, our hospital will also help your wife pay for the imported drugs that cannot be reduced or exempted." The doctor said excitedly.

"Ah? That won't work. My wife has already collected the money and is going to pay back the part of the money that can't be deducted... He said that there are two kinds of people in this world who can't owe money. One is the teacher, and the other is the teacher. A doctor who cures the sick and saves the sick. If the teacher has no money, there will be no one to teach; if the doctor has no money, there will be no one to treat the sick and save the sick.”

After all, the old lady got up and wanted to leave, and the doctor also stood up respectfully and wanted to send the old lady out, but he declined.

"You are a doctor who treats diseases and saves lives. I can't delay your treatment and save lives. I'll just go find my wife." After the old lady said, she left the consultation room.

The doctor sat back in his seat with great emotion, but found a piece of 50 yuan that was pressed under his diagnosis and treatment record.

"Ma'am..." When the doctor saw the 50 yuan, his heart, which was already deeply moved, was immediately touched by it.

Then the doctor rushed out of the consultation room and hurriedly searched for the old lady in the direction where she left.

At this time, Zhao Mu had already found the old man with the medicine, and sat down in a quiet place with the old man, and then handed over the medicine soup in his hand.

"Boy, what is this?"

"If you insist on knowing, you can treat him as the sugar water I boiled for fun." Zhao Mu laughed.

"Oh, I didn't expect you to take good care of my old man, young man. You knew that the medicine I just took tasted bitter, and you boiled a pot of sugar water for me." The old man also smiled.

"Maybe old man, if you drink this bowl of sugar water, your illness will be cured immediately?" Zhao Mu also responded with a smile.

The old man then took a sip of the medicinal soup, and said, "Well, it's not too bitter. It really tastes like sugar water when you taste it carefully."

"Since it's not bitter, then you can drink it all." Zhao Mu then laughed.

The old man didn't say much, and directly drank all the medicinal soup in the cup.

After drinking the medicinal soup, the old man didn't feel the slightest strangeness, he laughed at himself, stood up and wanted to say goodbye to Zhao Mu.

But at this moment, Zhao Mu slowly handed the orange in his hand to the old man.
