I played as an assistant in ancient times
Chapter 16 Atractylodes
Shen Xiaoye couldn't see what was happening outside the wall. She helped Cui cover the unconscious person on the ground with clothes, and then looked at the position of the sun: "Uncle, let's build a tent. If the doctor needs to treat the patient outside after seeing him, the strong sun will affect the vision."
"Well, you tell the headman." Shen Changsui was too busy to care about anything else because the injured man suddenly convulsed and started bleeding again. He quickly held the hatchet steady to hold his shoulder, asked another woman next to him to hold his lower limbs, and asked Cui to sprinkle more medicine powder.
Shen Xiaoye was very worried that his uncle's hand would be injured by the blade, so he quickly knelt down to press his uncle's shoulder so that Shen Changsui could concentrate on steadying the hatchet with both hands.
Everyone around was watching with fear and trepidation. Qian Wu stopped trying to kill anyone and came over to help his mother.
But Shen Xiaoye said: "Uncle Qian, go borrow some tent cloth and build a shed here.
Bring a stable bed here, and all the grandmothers, aunts, and aunts, please step back three feet and block the road. Don't let irrelevant people get close to Grandma Xia, or she will be hit by the evil wind."
"We'll block it." The women who had formed a circle retreated lightly and discerningly.
Qian Wu asked: "Shed, bed, what else?"
"Find another stretcher to carry the person, hot water, scissors, strong liquor, and more cotton cloth." Shen Xiaoye felt that the man under his command had stopped twitching. He glanced at his uncle and let go after he nodded.
She left with Qian Wu and walked in two directions. After a while, they returned home and found that her aunt was hugging Xiao Taozi and wiping her face in the shade.
"She's asleep?" the little girl was still sobbing.
Huang said, "I just coaxed her down. Is the doctor here?"
"Not yet. I came home to get some Atractylodes and moxa to disinfect Grandma Xia's area.
Aunt, where is grandma's medicine for this afternoon?" Shen Xiaoye moved to the kitchen very quickly and washed her hands with soap behind the door.
Huang frowned: "It's on the top shelf of the kitchen cabinet. Can you recognize Cangshu?"
"I can recognize it." Shen Xiaoye had heard from his grandfather that whenever there was a major epidemic, doctors from all over the country would first use raw Atractylodes lancea (zhu) as smoke to drive away the disease.
It just so happened that last year she had picked them herself under the guidance of her grandfather, only to sell them for money.
Moreover, she remembered seeing an introduction in her previous life, which said that large hospitals also used raw Atractylodes for disinfection, because it was natural and had no side effects.
Shen Xiaoye stepped on a stool to take the medicine bag. Her hand accidentally touched the paper bag beside her. She pushed it inwards and subconsciously leaned over it to smell it. "Aunt, what's that next to it?"
Without hearing the answer, she went downstairs to pick up the medicine. To be honest, there was only a small amount of raw Atractylodes in a packet of medicine. Fortunately, it didn't take too much to fumigate a shed, and the doctor would definitely bring a medicine box over.
Huang came in when she was tying the medicine bag again and handed her a ball of moxa and a roll of Songjiang cloth: "Anything else?"
"Strong liquor." Shen Xiaoye said without thinking.
Huang looked at her for a few breaths, then reached out and touched her head, "Xiaoye, do you think that Hang killed Grandma Li Zi because you kidnapped her?"
"I... a little bit." Shen Xiaoye lowered her head, then looked up again after a moment and said, "When she is unhappy, she goes to Uncle Qian Wu's house to make trouble. This time, she will definitely find trouble again.
But it must have been a coincidence. I don't think Old Lady Hang had the courage to kill anyone.
I hope Grandma Xia will be blessed and get through this difficult time as soon as possible."
Huang smiled at her gently and said, "Hang Shi didn't get a share of the old house, and Qian Wu refused to adopt Qian Er's youngest son, so she often comes to our house to make trouble. It has nothing to do with you.
When your uncle went out to escort the goods, he took away the remaining half jar of wine. The water was cold at that time, so he used it to keep warm.
Don't think too much at your young age. Go ahead. Remember to come back for dinner when you're done. Your fourth uncle has added some ingredients to stew a whole chicken."
Shen Xiaoye leaned on her shoulder, said "Aunt is so nice", and ran away with the things.
By the time she arrived at Qian Wu's house, everyone outside the gate had already dispersed, and the tent had been almost set up with everyone's concerted efforts. The person directing everyone was her great-grandfather, and it seemed that they had also heard the news and rushed over.
She glanced across the courtyard and saw her grandmother and great grandmother lighting mugwort in a broken clay pot. "Grandma, I took your atractylodes."
"Hurry up and bring it to disinfect the shed." Grandma Lin was worried that Qian Wu's mugwort was not easy to use.
Shen Xiaoye brought it over quickly, but her grandmother lit it and asked her to take it back to the shed, saying, "If it's not enough, I'll go get more."
It was actually enough, because under the command of the great-grandfather, each family put up colorful tent cloths to form a square room with three neat sides and the remaining side surrounded by two pieces of cloth to form a door.
Under normal circumstances, five grams of raw Atractylodes can fumigate a room of about ten square meters. In the Zhou Dynasty, one catty was equal to sixteen taels, and one tael was ten coins.
My uncle once said that if converted into future measurement units, one jin is approximately equal to 596.8 grams, and one qian is approximately equal to 37.3 grams.
Shen Xiaoye remembered her grandmother's prescription, which contained one and a half cents of Atractylodes lancea.
In this way, the Atractylodes incense she brought was enough for the temporary tent of more than ten square meters, and could also be used to fumigate the bed.
Finally, she also focused on fumigating her uncle and the other two middle-aged strong women who were taking care of Grandma Xia.
When Shen Changsui saw this, he gave her a look of approval and said, "The head of the village has gone to get the doctor. Go watch them disinfect the knives and cotton cloth, and make a few masks for us."
"here?"
"I don't need you."
"Yeah." Shen Xiaoye knew that her ability to help and care was not as good as the two women around her uncle, so she simply handed the clay basin to one of them and left.
She was just about to ask Cui, the dispatch lady, to make a mask when she saw her grandmother Lin coming over with one. "Send it in. It's made according to the style your fourth uncle taught us in Qizhou."
"Yes." Shen Xiaoye found that she was just a runner now, "Grandma, ask Aunt Tang to boil the scissors, basin, and needles in water first.
Oh, by the way, I forgot to bring pancreas with me just now." Although the recipe of pancreas is mentioned in Qianjin Yaofang, ordinary farmers do not spend money to keep it in stock, and most of them use soapberry pods or wood ash to remove dirt.
Lin patted her hand gently, "I know, your great grandmother went to her house to get it just now, and your fourth uncle and several close relatives have also washed it."
Shen Xiaoye nodded, turned around and went back into the shed. She raised the mask, and after fumigating the three people one by one, she helped them put them on.
Almost as soon as my uncle's clothes were tied, someone outside shouted, "The doctor is here, the doctor is here."
"That's great." It was a hot day, and the two women were not used to covering their mouths and noses with something, so they especially hoped that the doctor would take over quickly.
Shen Xiaoye quickly opened the curtained door and saw the village head leading a monk and a Taoist priest walking quickly under the gaze of the neighbors, and Uncle Qian Wu followed closely.
She didn't even care about the medicinal vapor in the shed dissipating, and quickly rolled up the curtain to make way for the doctor.
Master Jie Chen smelled the familiar scent of medicine, then glanced at the cut cotton cloth drying in the yard. He was a little surprised, but his face was so calm that no one could see it.
Instead, the Taoist priest beside him twirled his beard and muttered, "It's well done, but the shed lacks a window."
