Chapter 328 Treatment
Song Ying retracted his hand, looked at the fur on the kitten's back trembling slightly, and said, "Move it behind the charcoal basin. I feel like there's still some wind blowing in."
Shen Wanyi looked at the kitten and felt that it was still cold, so she agreed and moved the bamboo basket behind the charcoal basin with Song Ying.
At this time, Baoqin brought in the medicine and said, "Miss, the medicine is ready."
Shen Wanyi wiped her tears and said quickly, "Give it medicine quickly."
Baoqin agreed and said to Song Ying, "Sister Song Ying, please help me move the cat's mouth away."
Because Shen Wanyi had refused to let her touch the kitten before, Song Ying looked at Shen Wanyi, thinking of asking for her opinion first, but she heard Doctor Lin say, "Baoqin, the cat is more familiar with you, you open its mouth and let Song Ying feed it the medicine."
Baoqin retracted her hand, somewhat reluctantly, and looked at Shen Wanyi.
Shen Wanyi thought about it and felt that what Doctor Lin said made sense, so she said, "Baoqin, give the medicine to Song Ying. Doctor Lin is right. Xuetuan is more familiar with you."
It turned out that the kitten was called Xuetuan. Song Ying glanced at the snow-white kitten curled up in the bamboo basket and thought that the name was quite appropriate.
She retracted her gaze, took the medicine bowl from Baoqin's hand, and waited for Baoqin to pry open the kitten's mouth. She had no objection to feeding the medicine. To be honest, the kitten was so small, and she was a little worried that she would not use enough force to pry open the kitten's mouth and hurt the cat.
Baoqin took the kitten out of the bamboo basket, and Song Ying discovered that the kitten, which looked clean and tidy, had yellowish-brown substance on the fur behind its buttocks. It must have been contaminated by diarrhea.
Seeing the yellow-brown color, Shen Wanyi frowned, covered her nose and stepped back a few steps, "Why is it playing again? Baoqin, wash it first."
"Miss Qi, it can't be bathed now!" Song Ying hurriedly stopped her. "The cat is sick and feeling uncomfortable. Besides, kittens are prone to getting sick when taking a bath. If it takes a bath while it is sick, wouldn't it make the illness worse?"
"Bah! You are not allowed to curse my Xuetuan!" Shen Wanyi glared at Song Ying, and then put her hands together and muttered, "Dear gods and bodhisattvas, what Song Ying said just now does not count."
Although Song Ying felt that it would be better to pay attention to herself than to pray to God at this moment, she still quickly spat a few times and told all the gods and Bodhisattvas that what she had just said did not count.
Shen Wanyi's expression eased a little, and then she looked at the yellow-brown color on the kitten's butt and was puzzled: "But it smells bad like this?"
Baoqin said quickly, "Miss, please stay away. We, the servants, will handle everything."
After hearing this, Shen Wanyi also remembered that she didn't have to do it herself, so she nodded: "Okay, then you guys hurry up and feed the medicine."
Baoqin took out a handkerchief and spread it on her legs, then she held the kitten on her legs and pried open its mouth.
Song Ying quickly scooped a small spoonful of medicine and fed it into the kitten's mouth. The medicine was too bitter, and the kitten immediately struggled and spit out the medicine in its mouth.
"Close its jaw and lift it up," Doctor Lin instructed calmly.
Baoqin did as she was told and finally prevented the kitten from vomiting all the medicine. After successfully doing so, Song Ying and Baoqin wanted to continue feeding the kitten as usual, but the kitten struggled even harder, waving its four claws and leaving a big bloody mark on Baoqin's hand.
Baoqin hissed in pain and quickly held down the kitten's paw, but by holding down the paw, she had no extra hands to pry open the kitten's mouth.
Doctor Lin came over and said, "Press its paw."
As she spoke, she pried open the kitten's mouth, and Song Ying quickly fed it a spoonful of food. Doctor Lin closed the kitten's chin and lifted it up, saying, "Put the spoon in a little more."
Song Ying agreed.
With the cooperation of three people, feeding the medicine went much more smoothly. After a short while, half a bowl of medicine was fed in.
Baoqin put the kitten back into the bamboo basket and breathed a sigh of relief. Song Ying felt the same way. The kitten was like an ignorant baby. It didn't know that this was good for it. Feeding it medicine was like fighting a war.
Doctor Lin washed his hands and said, "Okay, let's eat first. We'll have to feed him medicine a few more times tonight, so it'll be a lot of work."
Since Song Ying only brought back food for herself and Doctor Lin, Baoqin quickly asked the second-class maid waiting outside to go to the kitchen and bring their meals here together.
The small courtyard where Master Song Ying and his disciples lived was not far from the big kitchen. The maid quickly brought the food back and placed Shen Wanyi's meal together with Song Ying and the others. The two maids put their own meal next to them and waited until Shen Wanyi finished eating before eating.
Song Ying looked at the second-class maid guarding outside the yard again, and felt sorry for her. She said, "Although it is spring now, it is still very cold in the morning and at night. Why not let the sister outside come in and warm herself by the fire?"
Shen Wanyi frowned, "No, it's all her fault for not taking good care of Xuetuan. It would be fine if Xuetuan got better, but if..."
Her voice was filled with tears again, and she said fiercely, "I will report this to my grandmother and sell her out!"
It turned out to be a punishment for that maid!
Song Ying was surprised. She had found it a bit strange before. Even in the main courtyard of Shun'an County Lord, it was not so cold that it made sense to have maids and old women standing guard at the door.
Since it was a punishment, Song Ying didn't say anything more and just buried her head in eating.
Halfway through the meal, the kitten in the bamboo basket came out, cried a few times, and then vomited with its body twitching.
"Why are you vomiting again!"
Shen Wanyi exclaimed, dropped her chopsticks, and ran over anxiously. Seeing the brown liquid on the floor, she frowned and covered her nose, backing away in disgust, "Baoqin, go and have a look! Why is it vomiting again!"
Baoqin was disgusted, but since Shen Wanyi had ordered her to do so, she had no choice but to go over and check. Song Ying had been following Doctor Ma to see patients these days, and was not disgusted by the vomit at all. He also put down his chopsticks and went over to check.
The vomit will reveal some of the kitten's physical condition.
She checked it over and turned back to say, "Master, what you vomited is basically the medicine you just drank."
Doctor Lin seemed to have expected this, unlike them, she nodded, "He will still vomit for a while, but the medicine contains anti-emetics, and he will feel much better after taking some medicine. Let him take it easy for a while, Baoqin, you can feed him some of the medicine after you finish your meal."
Her calmness infected several people. Baoqin went to clean up the vomit on the ground, while Shen Wanyi and Song Ying returned to the table to continue eating. Song Ying ate very happily.
Shen Wanyi thought about the vomit but couldn't eat it, so she simply went to the bamboo basket and looked at the kitten.
After dinner, several people were preparing to feed the kitten medicine again when Chuntao from the main courtyard suddenly came and said anxiously, "Doctor Lin, Doctor Lin, the old lady has a cough, go and take a look."
Hearing this, Song Ying hurried to get the medicine box and prepared to go with Doctor Lin to check it out. Although Shen Wanyi was worried about the kitten, she could not stop Doctor Lin from going to check on her grandmother.
