Chapter 693: 688. Sunbathing and Moxibustion [Two-in-one]_2 Chapter 693: 688. Sunbathing and Moxibustion [Two-in-one]_2 “You just don’t give up, do you?” Wu Lan asked Doctor Guo, “Doctor Guo, do you think this could be some kind of detox reaction?”
Guo Dong answered mercilessly, “No, you just have heatstroke–If you go and bake yourself in the sun like this again, I won’t be able to treat heatstroke.”
Zhang Hong’s husband was anxious, “Haven’t you learned your lesson?! What about warding off the cold, couldn’t you have just asked Doctor Guo to do cupping therapy for you instead of sunbathing? One could die from the heat just by walking around in this weather.”
Wu Lan couldn’t help but chime in, “You really don’t understand. The vibrato you’re watching only shows you what you love to see, the more you watch–the what’s called big data? Big data means the more you watch something, the more it pushes it to you, which is why you ended up watching so many people sunbathing!”
She even gave an example, “Look, I hardly saw any!”
But the big data was pushing sanfu stickers to her, which Wu Lan did not mention.
However, having someone at home who livestreams every day and hearing Zhang Yanping and Xin Jun use professional jargon when they chat has allowed her to start throwing around terms like ‘big data’ in conversations now.
Zhang Hong was actually persuaded by this and felt that it made sense.
However, speaking of cupping, Wu Lan also became interested. She looked expectantly at Guo Dong, “Doctor Guo, my back and waist have been feeling uncomfortable too, can I get cupping therapy? Didn’t they say cupping and fire therapy are most effective during the sanfu days?”
Guo Dong couldn’t help but laugh and cry–He never expected to have this duty in the village!
After considering it, he said directly, “Let’s not even bother with fire therapy. Auntie, wait for me for a couple of days, I need to prepare.”
“I’ll come back and do cupping and moxibustion for you all, to drive away the cold, dispel stagnation, and clear the meridians.”
Cupping? Moxibustion?!
Wu Lan immediately perked up, “What do you need to prepare? I’ll help you with it.”
“It’s nothing much.”
Guo Dong was a bit embarrassed, “There’s plenty of mugwort in the wild near Chestnut Forest up on the mountain. I need to cut and gather more of it.”
He also explained, “The quality of mugwort sticks on the market is quite inconsistent, and I think the mugwort on the mountain is particularly good, so there’s no need to buy any.”
“I’ll cut some early in the morning or in the evening and dry it out. Then we can use it ourselves for moxibustion, and it won’t cost us anything.”
It wouldn’t cost money, just some effort, which the elderly in the village would probably be willing to put in with a few extra trips.
Wu Lan recalled, “That’s right! The mugwort we have at home, the one we used during Dragon Boat Festival, works so well for repelling mosquitoes when burned!”
However, moxibustion wasn’t something that could be handled with just a handful of mugwort–she couldn’t help but feel excited, and surely the rest of the village would feel the same!
Not to mention just her family with so many people; they would probably all want to try it, and the mugwort they would need wouldn’t be a small amount.
Wu Lan decided on the spot, “Since we have many people in our family, Doctor Guo, you’ll have to put in the effort to do cupping for all of us.”
“As for the mugwort, I’ll get them to cut it on the mountain, you do your thing, don’t get held up because of this.”
Then looking at Zhang Hong, seeing that her complexion had improved a lot, Wu Lan sighed, “You too, how can you be so reckless? Just rest up at home, if you go out sunbathing all haphazardly again, see if the folks won’t laugh at you.”
“Moreover, Doctor Guo is our village’s doctor; if you want anything done, he’s right here. Why not ask him directly?”
Wu Lan, saying all this, felt as though she was once again educating children; getting the whole string of words out in one breath, she finally felt relieved.
As for Zhang Hong…
She was too embarrassed to make a sound.
Although Doctor Guo was someone they went to great lengths to keep in the village, after all, he was young and you couldn’t tell much from his routine treatments like administering injections or IV drips.
But for things like this? People on the internet, wearing white lab coats and speaking with such conviction, didn’t that seem more credible?
However, Wu Lan had already hurried back home with zeal.
As for Yanping’s little affairs… Well, the internet says that driving out the cold during sanfu days is just the thing! She needed to hurry and cut mugwort. The kid’s issues would be left for the kid to sort out!
Song Tan hadn’t expected that, in the time it took her mother to go out and ask for a sanfu plaster, she hadn’t seen a single plaster, but instead, the task of collecting mugwort had been thrust upon her.
What could she say? That’s her mom!
All she could do was sigh deeply, “We’ll go cut it in the evening.”
By then the sun would have set, and it wouldn’t be so hot, making it bearable for everyone to do a bit of work.
As for the mugwort… the stuff grows quickly and vigorously. They had already harvested a crop during Dragon Boat Festival, yet now the edges of Chestnut Garden were sprouting with it again.
Nevertheless, thus far the mugwort had been limited in its use at their home, to making a few green dumplings during Qingming Festival and burning a bundle every day to repel insects in the yard.
