Lady of the Lord From the East
Chapter 44:
Seeing the count coming, the maids voluntarily gave up their seats so that they could see Dolores wearing it.
At this time, Dolores was actually not very fresh. Although she was humming and uncomfortable, the headache and weakness of her limbs made her unable to recover, and she didn't even notice Felix coming.
"How's the situation?" Felix asked while walking to the bedside. He reached out and touched Dolores' forehead. He felt that the temperature was not very high, and wondered: "Does she really have a fever?"
The maid who took care of her said, "Yes, sir, but Miss Dolores' body temperature has not increased too much, it should be only a slight fever."
Fever is a very serious condition. If the temperature is too high, it will even burn people to death, but low-grade fever is a good thing for them.
Felix thinks so too.
"Is it a cold?" Although it is rare to catch a cold in summer, it is not uncommon.
Maid: "It should be, but we won't know until the doctor arrives."
"I'll take a look."
Wei Wei went around to the other side of the bed and didn't touch Dolores' special head. The maid had put a wet towel on the little girl's forehead before, but the temperature was not accurate, so she reached out to Dolores's head. In her pajamas, she felt the temperature of her chest, and after confirming that the temperature should be in the range of low-grade fever, she grabbed her hand and began to check her pulse.
Wei Wei got medical skills from the system. Although she didn't ask others to try it, she did a lot of experiments on herself. With the addition of knowledge in this period of time, she was sure that her level would not be too bad.
As soon as she got started, she felt the beating from her fingertips, and Wei Wei's expression changed.
Felix said in surprise: "You know medicine?"
He is very familiar with Wei Wei's pulse diagnosis, which is how doctors treat patients.
"Well." Wei Wei responded casually, her hands kept moving, and she turned her head to ask the maids who took care of her: "Have you changed her clothes before? Does she have a rash or something?"
Several maids looked at each other: "Does the bag that was bitten by mosquitoes count before?"
Wei Wei knew she couldn't count on them anymore, so she stretched out Dolores's hair and searched, and soon found several small pink rashes of different sizes.
"It's not a cold." Wei Wei confirmed: "It's chickenpox, and the pulse is not serious."
While talking about the diagnosis results, Wei Wei was thinking about the disease, and related treatment methods naturally appeared in her mind. The traditional Chinese medicine in the original formula could not be found, but her recent Western herbal books were not for nothing. "Wei Shenyi "I soon thought of alternative medicinal materials, and re-combined new prescriptions in my mind.
Although the effect may not be as good as the original prescription, it is at least usable and symptomatic.
Before she could ask someone for a pen and paper to record the prescription, she heard a loud bang, she turned her head and saw that a maid had knocked over the water basin.
The maid who overturned the water basin looked terrified, not sure if it was because of her reckless behavior or something else.
And other people's faces are not very good-looking.
Felix had already stood up and looked at Wei Wei solemnly: "Chickenpox? Are you sure?"
"Well, she's already starting to get pimples."
When Wei Wei saw a room full of people, she realized that people in this era had no chance to get vaccinated, so everyone in the room was likely to be infected with chickenpox.
I don't know if she is also infected. Wei Wei was a little annoyed and forgot to ask the system about this.
But soon she felt that she shouldn't have an accident, not to mention that the new body that the system gave her has always been healthy, just to say that if the system did not take any protective measures during the time-travel, she should have suffered from it long ago. Sick, after all, many diseases that are popular now have disappeared in future generations. If a traveler like her is not protected at all, I am afraid that it will not be able to live to the end of her life.
Of course, precautions are still needed.
While thinking about her own health, she said to Felix, "The people who have been in contact with Dolores in the past few days are likely to have been infected. You'd better send someone to check. No one else has acne."
Chickenpox is spread through droplets, air and direct contact, and it is very contagious, but in general, the main infected people are children, and the chance of adults being infected is not high.
Wei Wei understands this, but others don't.
So everyone in the room felt a chill all over the body at this time, as if they were sick.
In Wei Wei's opinion, chickenpox is not a serious disease. Even Chinese medicine practitioners who are good at pediatrics in China have done a lot of research on this disease, but in Europe, chickenpox has a very high fatality rate, especially because it is also contagious, so people at this time It can be said to be "talking about acne discoloration".
A younger maid tremblingly asked in a crying tone, "I, will we be okay?"
Only then did Wei Wei react, knowing that they were scared, and quickly reassured: "It's alright, chickenpox is not a serious disease, it will be fine after two weeks of training, and it's... adults over 20 years old have a very small chance of being infected. Yes, people who have had chickenpox before don't have to worry about getting infected again."
It's dangerous, forget that this is the Middle Ages, a girl is considered an adult at the age of fourteen, and in later generations, there are many people who have chickenpox at the age of fifteen or six.
Those who are old enough and who have had chickenpox relax a little now, and the maid who is questioning is obviously under twenty years old and has never had chickenpox.
Felix also calmed down at this time, and he said, "Okay, you all stay in the room and are not allowed to leave, butler, you go and see the situation of other people, especially Caroline's side." He knew Butler Patton He had had chickenpox before, and there were too many people just now, and the housekeeper was not near the bed. Felix felt that he should be safe.
And Caroline is really paying attention. She lives very close to Dolores, and the little girl often goes to see her little niece. She may also have an accident.
"Butler Patton, wait a minute." Wei Wei stood up, "Chickenpox is spread through saliva, air and direct contact, you first find a few clean cloths to wrap your nose and mouth, and then go to other people, Be careful not to touch them."
"Okay, Miss Weiwei." Butler Patton responded, covering his mouth and nose with his hands all the way.
Not only him, but the maids who stayed in the room also covered themselves with their hands or towels.
"The others don't need to stay," Wei Wei asked the maids again, "Has any of you ever had chickenpox?"
Two maids stood up and said that she had been out.
"You stay and I used to take care of Dolores." She finished naming her name and said to Felix: "The others will arrange a room to rest alone. It's safe if you don't have acne within a week."
Felix nodded, and directly arranged everyone in the next room, and he himself, after thinking about it, stayed.
When he arranged people, Wei Wei had already started to cool down Dolores.
She took out the silver needle she brought and began to needle Dolores.
This picture is terrifying to those who do not know the truth, but Dolores is not very conscious now, and Felix, the only person who is qualified to stop it, has not spoken, and the remaining maids can only keep quiet. Let her treat.
But Wei Wei explained it in what they understood: "This is the blood-pricking therapy in acupuncture, which means that I am bleeding her to cool down."
They understand bloodletting to cool down. Today's doctors do this all the time, but other doctors do a lot of bloodletting. Unlike Wei Wei, who uses such a small needle to **** her, you can't even see a drop of blood.
But obviously Wei Wei's method worked better. Half an hour later, Dolores' body temperature dropped, and her headaches began to subside.
The little girl's spirit improved a little, she didn't sleep anymore, and began to think wildly.
"Sister Weiwei, am I going to die?" The little girl wore a mask on her mouth, which was made by Wei Wei temporarily looking for materials. She also gave herself and Felix, as well as the maid who stayed to take care of Dolores. She made one, and she also told the maid who was isolated next door how to make it, and asked them to make it by themselves.
"No, you are just a minor illness." Wei Wei wore a mask on her face, her voice sounded unreal, but her eyes were curved, revealing Dolores' familiar smile: "When you drink the medicine, soon will be fine."
She had found all the herbs she needed in the wild before, and collected some. When the needle was just inserted, she took time to go back to the room to get the herbs and let a maid go to the kitchen to boil the herbs.
It was probably the trust she cultivated on weekdays that made Dolores believe Wei Wei's words. She nodded and raised her hand to scratch her face, but Wei Wei stopped her before she touched it.
"Chickenpox can't be scratched. If you scratch it, it will leave scars." Wei Wei warned: "Do you want to see your face with acne marks?"
Of course Dolores didn't want to, she'd seen someone like that, and it was ugly.
The sick little girl said aggrievedly and coquettishly: "But I'm uncomfortable."
"Then don't scratch. In this way, pat lightly with the back of your hand and bear it for a while. I'll find herbal medicine to relieve the itch for you tomorrow." Wei Wei subconsciously wanted to pat her, but thought that she might also be infected, so she could only stop Come down and let her come.
The little girl patted her cheek lightly, and she felt a little more comfortable, and she also raised her eyebrows with a smile at Wei Wei.
Felix, who was watching from a distance, saw this scene, and the worry in his eyes receded a little.
The maid who went to boil the medicine finally brought the medicine. She brought the medicine bowl to the bed and said to Wei Wei, "I have already notified the kitchen to sterilize Miss Dolores' tableware according to your instructions. Tomorrow's menu will be Ready too."
Wei Wei nodded, not too worried about this.
The tableware of the castle owners are all fixed and stored separately, and because of Wei Wei's request, after each meal, the tableware will be soaked in boiling water, and will be boiled in boiling water for a period of time, so the possibility of infection through tableware Sex is not high.
The maid gave Dolores the soup with a moderate temperature. The bitter and strange taste made Dolores nauseous, but she did not dare not drink it because her brother was watching.
After drinking the medicine and gargling her mouth, Dolores felt better, and when the medicine took effect, she quickly fell asleep, who was not in good spirits.
When she fell asleep, Wei Wei didn't watch anymore. While washing her hands, she told the two maids to feed the little girl some warm water after a while after she woke up. If the situation is not right, go Call her upstairs.
It was already past three in the morning.
Felix took her back to her room.
"Thank you for today."
"Don't thank me, Dolores is also my student." Wei Wei waved her hand: "You should also pay attention to yourself. Although adults are not easily infected, there is still a certain danger."
"What about you? Have you ever had chickenpox?" Felix originally just asked tentatively, but when she saw that she didn't refute, her face darkened: "You haven't had chickenpox but have been in contact with Dolores, so you're not afraid of being caught contagious?"
Wei Wei felt a little guilty: "I originally studied medicine, and I know how to avoid infection, so I won't be so easily infected."
"But it's still possible, isn't it?" Felix said solemnly, "Don't take such a risk next time."
"I know, it's not because it's Dolores who is sick, and I'm not so enthusiastic about other people."
She quickly slapped herself with those words.
Because she stayed up late last night and didn't get up at the usual time, Wei Wei, who was going to sleep until noon and get up to eat, was quickly woken up by the housekeeper.
"Miss Weiwei, Miss Caroline has also started to have chickenpox."
Because of Dolores' accident last night, the people in the castle couldn't rest well all night. Many people who had never had chickenpox were afraid that they would also be infected, and the atmosphere in the castle became very bad.
Fortunately, Felix handled it in time. He asked the maids to rush to make a batch of masks and distribute them to everyone, isolate the people who may be infected, and convey some precautions that Wei Wei said. When the probability of human infection is not high, everyone is less afraid, and some young servants and their children are asked to stay in their own rooms and not to go out during this time.
During the time Dolores had acne, no one else was infected. This situation naturally made the servants who had been worried all night gradually feel at ease.
But last night, when Butler Barton went to check on Caroline's condition, Mrs. Nancy, who received the news, was very nervous, because Dolores was still playing with Caroline in the room for a while yesterday, and Caroline's body was always Neither were good.
Sure enough, in the morning, Caroline began to have acne.
But unlike Dolores, Caroline's chickenpox came with a fever, and because Caroline was in worse health, her fever was worse.
Wei Wei, who had only rested for less than five hours, had to get up and get up to see Caroline.
The next step is to repeat what Dolores did on Dolores, puncture the needle to reduce the fever, and drink medicine. Fortunately, Caroline is not a lively child. Although she cried non-stop because of the fever when the needle was punctured, Wei Wei was very measured and did not let She felt pain, so she didn't struggle, and the herbs were prepared for Dolores before, Wei Wei reduced the dosage, and it was also suitable for Caroline.
This was the first time she had contact with this little baby. She said it was two years old. In fact, Caroline, who was still two months away, was indeed very thin and small. Her cries were thin and weak like a little milk cat. It's hay, obviously malnourished.
But fortunately, judging from the pulse, she has no other more serious diseases except that her resistance is weaker than that of normal children - if there is, with the medical level of Europe at this time, I am afraid that she will not grow so big.
Caroline has not yet been weaned, and there is a nurse among the maids who take care of her--but this nurse has never had chickenpox, so she does not dare to breastfeed Caroline now.
Wei Wei also suggested weaning the child as soon as she came up. Although many people in later generations said that the baby can be weaned after six months, in fact, if conditions permit, letting the child drink breast milk until the age of two will be more beneficial to the child. Well, especially when Caroline was a premature baby.
"If you don't dare to feed it directly, squeeze it out and feed it with a spoon. During this time, you have to eat lightly. The recipe is according to Dolores's. By the way, you have children, right? Have you been in contact with children recently?"
The children of those who can be nurses are obviously not too big, and if there is contact, I am afraid they will be easily infected.
Fortunately, after this nanny took office, because Caroline had to drink milk every day, she couldn't go home. She only came over once a month to get her salary, and the time for this month had not yet come. I haven't seen my family for more than 20 days.
So her baby is very safe.
"That's good, then you have to pay attention, don't have direct contact with other people for at least a week, and don't take off the mask when you meet."
Just milking the nurse is still willing, and her job is saved, although she will be quarantined for a week after that, the nurse also obediently followed her.
When she left, Mrs. Nancy frowned and asked Wei Wei, "Is there really no need to find another nurse? We can find one who has had chickenpox."
At this time, women are very diligent in giving birth, and it is not difficult to find one who has milk.
Wei Wei shook her head: "Caroline is almost two years old. She should start weaning in two months. Maybe she can't get used to it, so she doesn't need to be replaced."
The composition of breast milk is different in each period. Caroline has been drinking the milk of her wet nurse for almost two years, and it is not very suitable to change to another one who has just given birth to a child. At this time, ordinary people lack nutrition and are breastfeeding mothers. We don't have much milk, and we can feed it for half a year. If we want to find a nurse like Caroline, we have to go to other noble houses to find them.
Madam Nancy gave up after hearing what she said. After seeing Wei Wei cooling Caroline within half an hour, she already believed that this doctor's medical skills were very powerful, much more powerful than those doctors she had seen before. .
After confirming that Caroline's side was temporarily stable, Wei Wei went to see Dolores again. The little girl had already taken medicine and was being persuaded to eat breakfast.
At this time, it is a two-meal system, but the patient can eat breakfast. The breakfast is noodles prepared by Wei Wei in the kitchen, but it is not pasta, but soup noodles. Nothing else was added to the soup, and it tasted nothing like it, so it's no wonder that Dolores didn't want to eat after two bites.
What's more, she just drank a big bowl of medicine, and her stomach was filled with bitter medicine.
Wei Wei saw that she was in good spirits, but all the chickenpox on her body came out, it was itchy and uncomfortable, but she couldn't scratch it, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.
Wei Wei took the bowl and fed her a few more mouthfuls, then she stopped forcing her to eat, and gave the noodle bowl to the maid: "Next time, you can eat something before taking the medicine."
Then she told Dolores two stories, diverted her attention, and waited for the effect of the medicine to come up again, and after she fell asleep, Wei Wei got up and left.
She changed her clothes, went downstairs to find Butler Patton, and asked him to find a few people to go out with her to collect medicine.
Butler Patton ordered someone for her immediately and asked, "Do you need to choose two more maids for you?"
Neither Qin nor Penny ever had chickenpox, and they often contact Dolores with Wei Wei. The two of them have also been quarantined at the moment, so there is no one to take care of Wei Wei for the time being.
Wei Wei shook her head: "No, it's only for a while, I can handle it." She wanted to know that if she found a new maid at this time, Qin and Penny, who were worried that they would get sick, would definitely feel even more sad.
She changed the subject: "Where's Felix? Still resting?"
The housekeeper, who knew what she wanted to ask, said, "Yes, the young master only went back to his room to rest this morning. I haven't told him about Miss Caroline's illness."
It's no wonder I just hadn't seen him.
Before going out, Wei Wei remembered one more thing: "Didn't you go to the doctor last night? Did anyone come?"
"Come and leave again." Speaking of this Butler Barton, he also frowned, "The doctor heard that the patient he was seeing had chickenpox, and was so frightened that he didn't dare to see Miss Dolores, Felix. The young master simply drove him away."
Wei Wei, who originally wanted to see how the doctors of this era treated her, shook her head: "Let's go. I hope he doesn't talk nonsense after he leaves. It would be bad if it caused panic."
Butler Patton: "Please rest assured, I have already dealt with it."
When the doctor left, he specially warned that although the other party was a free citizen, as long as he wanted to stay in Sardinson County, he would never dare to go back and talk nonsense.
Wei Wei took five people out to collect medicine. These people were all slaves from the castle. There were not many slaves in Sardinson Castle. These people were originally free people and serfs by themselves or their ancestors, but they became slaves after making mistakes. , they used to be responsible for hogweed and grazing, and they were very familiar with the surrounding vegetation. One of the female slaves was very good at finding wild vegetables and knew the appearance of many plants.
Wei Wei dug up some of the good-looking medicinal herbs as samples and distributed them to them, and asked them to dig according to them.
The female slave was originally digging for herbs not far from her, but after discovering the herbs Wei Wei was looking for, she walked over carefully and told her where she had seen a large area.
Wei Wei handed her the herb in her hand: "Are you sure it's this?"
The slave girl looked at it, smelled it, and nodded, "That's it, it will bloom purple flowers in autumn, right?"
That's it! Wei Wei nodded and asked if she had seen other herbs.
As a result, except for some that grow in the forest, the female slaves can basically help her find them.
It was a nice surprise.
After successfully finding several kinds of herbs that were difficult to find, Wei Wei asked the slave girl, "What's your name?"
There was no mask to wear, so the maid wrapped in a torn rag told her with bright eyes, "Kama, my name is Karma."
