Chapter 8 The people from the educated youth office came to the door.
"What's going on? Did the old man suddenly fall ill?"
"What do you mean by suddenly falling ill? He was angered by that salesperson," said someone who had witnessed the whole thing.
"I hope nothing bad happens to this old man."
"It's hard to say. If something goes wrong, the salesperson will be in big trouble."
The sales clerk naturally overheard the discussion and immediately retorted angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? She's clearly sick and fainted because of an attack. What does it have to do with me?"
Xia Yuhuan ignored the whispers around her; all her attention was focused on the old man.
After taking the old man's pulse and confirming his condition, Xia Yuhuan took out her acupuncture kit from her bosom and began to administer acupuncture.
Those watching gasped in shock.
"This young girl knows medicine?"
"She's so young, even if she knows medicine, she probably isn't very skilled."
"Whether it's good or not is another matter, the important thing is not to cause problems for the patient."
Just then, someone shouted, "Who are you? What are you doing to my old lady?"
An angry voice exploded in Xia Yuhuan's ears, but she was in the middle of administering a crucial injection and ignored the other person.
Upon seeing this, the other party became extremely angry and immediately reached out to pull Xia Yuhuan.
Xia Yuhuan dodged the other person's hand, and the last needle was inserted at that moment.
"Who are you? Is this old lady your family member?" Xia Yuhuan frowned and asked.
"That's right, the old lady is my family member. Who are you? What were you doing to my old lady just now?" the newcomer shouted angrily.
As she spoke, she reached out to pull the old lady.
Xia Yuhuan grabbed her wrist.
"The old lady fainted due to an attack. I just gave her acupuncture treatment. She can't move for the time being and needs to rest. If you move her around and cause her any harm, I won't be responsible," Xia Yuhuan scolded.
The other party was startled by Xia Yuhuan's words and dared not move.
She looked at Xia Yuhuan, flustered, and said, "You...you really know medicine? Are you really capable?"
It wasn't that she looked down on Xia Yuhuan, it was just that Xia Yuhuan looked too young and really seemed...unreliable.
In her previous life, Xia Yuhuan also started by treating and saving lives in the hospital. However, she was a genius, too young, and followed the path of apprenticeship. Even though she was known as an expert, no one believed in her medical skills.
Although these people would eventually be proven wrong, she was so tired of such doubts that she turned to medical research.
"Whether I can do it or not, the old lady will give you the answer. Look, she's awake." Xia Yuhuan said, removing the needles from the old woman's body.
The old lady's gaze fell on Xia Yuhuan: "Young comrade, thank you for saving me."
She had just fallen ill but had not lost consciousness; she could hear what was happening outside.
Xia Yuhuan smiled slightly: "No need to thank me. Since we've met, it must be fate. I'm just doing what I should do."
As she spoke, she helped the elderly woman up: "How are you feeling now?"
"I felt a tightness in my chest just now, but I feel much better now," the old man replied.
Xia Yuhuan nodded slightly upon hearing this: "That's fine then. Your health is not good, so you must avoid getting angry, as it will stimulate your heart and make you prone to illness."
"Okay, thank you, young comrade. Xiufang, give all the money you have on you to the young comrade."
Wang Xiufang quickly took out all the money she had and stuffed it into Xia Yuhuan's hands: "Young comrade, thank you for saving my old lady. This is all the money I have on me. It's just a small token of our appreciation. Please accept it."
"By the way, young comrade, where do you live? Give me your address, and we'll personally come to thank you for saving our lives later."
"It's nothing, no need to make such a fuss. I'm a medical student, this is my job. I'm just glad you're alright," Xia Yuhuan said with a smile.
“This is no small matter. You saved my old lady’s life. This is a huge deal for our family. Young lady, please tell me where you live. If you don’t tell me, I won’t let you leave today.”
Wang Xiufang quickly grabbed Xia Yuhuan's hand and said in a threatening tone.
Helpless, Xia Yuhuan could only say, "My name is Xia Yuhuan, and I live in the military compound. If you want to come and find me, please come to the military compound."
"Your body needs conditioning. If you trust me, I can prescribe a medicine for you."
"Okay, sure," the old man said hurriedly.
Xia Yuhuan said, "If there's nothing else, you should go home and rest. I'll be going now."
The old woman agreed, but didn't seem to want to leave immediately. Xia Yuhuan knew she probably wanted to argue with the saleswoman, so she didn't say anything more.
She wasn't interested in watching the spectacle and simply turned and left.
After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, Xia Yuhuan had nowhere else to go, so she simply went straight back to the Xia family home.
As soon as Xia Yuhuan entered the room, she heard Xia Zhuyu crying.
Curious about what had happened, she immediately asked, "What's going on? Why are you crying?"
Upon hearing Xia Yuhuan's voice, Xia Zhuyu excitedly stood up and rushed towards her.
"Did you do this? Did you ruin me?" Xia Zhuyu asked shrilly, raising her hand to slap Xia Yuhuan.
Xia Yuhuan easily grabbed Xia Zhuyu's wrist, frowning as she said, "I don't even know what happened to you, how could I have harmed you?"
"No wonder she's Xia Jianyong's daughter; she's just like him, indiscriminate in her judgments."
As she spoke, Xia Yuhuan flung Xia Zhuyu's hand away and pushed her back with her other hand.
Xia Zhuyu immediately lost her balance and staggered backward.
"Ah..." Xia Zhuyu thought she was going to fall and screamed in fright.
At this moment, Li Rouyue stepped forward and happened to support Xia Zhuyu.
She glared at Xia Yuhuan and said angrily, "Xia Yuhuan, did you recruit these people from the educated youth office? They just came to inform Zhuzhu that she's going to the countryside!"
"Old Xia had already spoken to people, so the educated youth office shouldn't have come knocking on our door at all. Everything was fine before, but after you arrived, the educated youth office came knocking. Do you dare to say you didn't do it?"
Li Rouyue's gaze towards Xia Yuhuan was filled with resentment and venom.
Xia Yuhuan didn't expect Zhang Xianya to act so quickly.
She had just told Zhang Xianya yesterday that she wanted Xia Zhuyu to go to the countryside, and today people from the educated youth office came to her door.
It seems her future mother-in-law is a decisive and strong-willed woman.
Xia Yuhuan was secretly delighted, but her face showed complete bewilderment: "What educated youth office? What going to the countryside? You mean Xia Zhuyu should have gone to the countryside, but she used connections to stay in the city?"
"The policy of sending educated youth to the countryside was put forward by the leaders above. How could you use your power to pull strings and avoid going to the countryside!"
"Now that we've been discovered and are going to be sent to the countryside, you're trying to shift the blame onto me. It seems you lack not only moral awareness but also character!"
"If people find out what you're doing, Xia Zhuyu will probably be sent to the most difficult place to work in the countryside, right?"
Upon hearing Xia Yuhuan's words, both Li Rouyue and Xia Zhuyu turned pale.
