Li Yi, who was 70% full, did not care about his brothers anymore. He went to find the manservant for a small surgery.
It was just an acne. He used a clipper to shave the hair.
He cut it open, observed it, and used a pair of pliers to pull it out. He slowly shaved it out with a small knife and disinfected it with iodophor cotton. He did not even need to suture it.
He gave a tetanus shot and antibiotics. He showed the patient the diseased glandular sac that was the size of a soybean.
"Does it hurt?" Li Yi asked.
The manservant thought for a while and replied, "It hurts. It hisses and then twitches. Then it goes numb. It only hurts when you press it."
"Yes, because you are young, I did not give you anesthesia. Otherwise, your head would be in a daze. Your whole neck and half of your head would be uncomfortable. It would also be easy to have a runny nose and tears."
Li Yi explained why he did not give him anesthesia. Even if it was immersion anesthesia, the patient would feel that half of his head was missing something.
Anesthesia also interfered with the healing of the wound. Unless the acne had turned into an abscess, he would have to add anesthesia and then clean it carefully.
"Okay, thank you, doctor." The manservant carefully moved his head left and right and found that it was indeed much easier.
It was the pain and the feeling of sweat on his arm or hand.
"Observe and change the dressing tomorrow. Don't wash your hair. When you sleep, try to turn your head to the other side." Li Yi's voice was steady and calm.
The manservant nodded vigorously.
Li Yi said to Yu Huaide who was watching the entire surgery, "I will do it tomorrow afternoon or the day after tomorrow. Now, the rest of you can go out. I will help you clean up and use a new bedding. Don't wear the underwear."
"I will pay for the new bedding." Yu Huaide was very sensible.
"It is already included in the overall treatment fee." Li Yi refused. This was not how money was earned. He had to be professional. He could not charge people randomly. This was a contract.
The others left and he let Yu Huaide handle it.
Then … he found a dress for Yu Huaide to wear.
He left behind anti-inflammatory medicine and told him to take it every six hours. He was not allowed to drink alcohol.
"Li Dongzhu, is it that simple?" Yu Huaide felt that the process should be very complicated. Otherwise, two thousand words …
"Composing a poem is also simple. The seven verses only have fifty-six words. How many words can you write in the imperial examination? Many people know how to write. It's just a matter of combining words. Is it simple? "
Li Yi gave an example and turned to leave.
Yu Huaide sat there and muttered to himself, "What you said makes sense, but why do I keep feeling that something is wrong?"
Li Yi went to the ward and found nothing serious.
The six-month-old baby's body temperature returned to normal. He giggled and smiled at Li Yi. Then, his forehead was pricked by a needle and he started crying again.
Li Yi used a pair of tweezers to pick up the sugar he brought and stuffed a few granules into the baby's mouth.
The little guy smacked his lips. At first, he was stunned, but then he revealed a happy smile again. His little hands and feet moved, and he opened his mouth to ask for more.
"Don't let the child eat too much, and don't let it become a habit. I see that you don't have enough milk. From tonight onwards, you'll have to change your diet.
Add a boiled egg and eat fish. Don't eat too much rice. Eat more sauerkraut and drink a bowl of goat milk before going to bed at night. "
Li Yi turned his head and gave medical advice to the child's mother. The child needed to eat, but he didn't want to feed the child milk directly.
As the mother, she didn't feel shy at all. Instead, she nodded seriously and remembered it.
The man beside her also tried his best to remember. He didn't think that the young genius doctor Dongzhu had any thoughts about his wife.
Li Yi nodded and looked at the others.
All the patients were full of gratitude, and none of them showed him any disdain.
Li Yi was in a good mood. As a doctor, he just wanted to be recognized, even though these people didn't know how to give pennants.
After the ward round, Li Yi went to find his eldest brother and third brother. They were preparing to eat barbecue skewers in the courtyard. He also wanted to drink some wine to relax. The excitement from today's rescue had not fully recovered.
It was because he had never participated in serious rescues before, let alone being alone.
"Li Dongzhu, can I have dinner with you?" Yu Huaide came over and wanted to have dinner with him.
"No." Before Li Yi said anything, Empress Wang spoke first.
Have dinner with us? Do you want to listen when we talk about politics during dinner?
"There are actually women here. I'm sorry for being rude." Yu Huaide didn't dare to say anything else. He had already heard that there were relatives of the royal family coming over for dinner.
He turned around and was about to wear a dress to the canteen when he saw someone standing behind him. He was shocked.
"Who, who are you?" Yu Huaide took a step back and asked.
The person ignored him and shouted inside, "Chang 'an ordered Pei Yaoqing to come here. Is Li Dongzhu here?"
"Come in. It's so late." The woman's voice came from inside.
Then, Pei Yaoqing went in. Yu Huaide was stunned. It turned out that Li Dongzhu really knew the Chang 'an order.
But why didn't Li Dongzhu speak?
However, he didn't dare to say or ask. He could only bring the person to the canteen. The dress wasn't very comfortable, but it could be worn and didn't look out of place. Wasn't it normal for a man to wear a dress?
Pei Yaoqing came in and cupped his fists, "Sorry to disturb everyone. I … I have an urgent matter to ask Yi … Yi Dongzhu."
He wanted to say 'this official' but changed his words. He wanted to say 'Brother Yi' but changed his words again.
"Take a seat." Li Chengqi greeted warmly. He couldn't let anything go wrong.
Li Yi was grilling the skewers while two eunuchs stood beside him. Two palace maids went in to accompany Xi 'er.
Otherwise, if everyone was eating and drinking, Xi 'er wouldn't be able to eat by herself …
"Brother Pei, you're here. Wait for me to finish grilling the skewers." Li Yi looked back and greeted.
"There's an outsider here. Call Ming Residence." Pei Yaoqing said in a businesslike manner.
"That's good too. Are you not going back to Pei Ming Residence tonight?"
If he came out at this time, he couldn't go back. The Chang 'an order wouldn't work either.
"Stay here." Pei Yaoqing said honestly. He couldn't be modest anymore. Otherwise, if Her Majesty called him out, he would freeze to death overnight.
Li Yi grilled a bunch of mutton skewers and came back. Qing Song and He Yan took over the grill and continued grilling.
Li Yi took out a small pair of scissors and cut off the slightly rough parts of the skewers. He gave it to his sister-in-law first.
He put the rest of the skewers on the tray. Big Brother, Third Brother and Chang 'an order can be taken by themselves.
"Ask away. Don't you have something urgent?" Li Chengqi picked up the skewers and said to Pei Yaoqing.
"Ah, okay. Yi, Yi Dongzhu. There are a lot of cooking fires in the city. If the ice sculptures are placed there, there will be a layer of dust from time to time. How can they last until the Lantern Festival?"
Pei Yaoqing asked the key question. Whether it was burning firewood or charcoal in the city, there would be dust.
"Put them in the shed during the day and install lights at night. Tell the higher-ups not to impose curfew when there are ice sculptures. Especially the Emperor. The Three Thousand Winged Knights are very good at fighting. Don't be afraid."
Li Yi didn't even consider cleaning them. He didn't have the skills to do so.
"If you put them in the shed, will there be people looking at them during the day?" Pei Yaoqing felt that the economic benefits were not good enough.
"Write outside the shed. For example, if the ice sculpture is a horse, write outside the shed: Floating clouds gather and scatter in the blink of an eye, light riders can't sleep for a thousand miles. Beacon smoke rises alone to report safety, because of the border of Hot Blood Town.
Isn't this more poetic and picturesque? Draw a few pictures on it and you can outline it with simple lines.
Look, I'll use the back of my chopsticks to draw for you: Birds fly in a thousand mountains, people disappear in ten thousand paths. A man in a lone boat, fishing alone in the cold river.
Isn't it simple? What you need to show is a kind of loneliness and strength of character. Just a few strokes are enough. "
As Li Yi spoke, he dipped his chopsticks in the wine on the table and drew a picture of a lone fisherman in a cold river.
The people at the same table: "…"
