Xu Xuehua was speechless, and her aunt Zhang Cuixiang chimed in, "They don't have money, but your brigade doesn't have money either? You can use the money to pay for their treatment first, and then when they recover, they can return to the brigade to earn work points. Ultimately, that's how you can use your work to pay off your debts."
There are so many poor people in the village. If they really have an emergency, shouldn't they seek treatment? If they need treatment, they should. If the brigade can cover the cost, they can. If they can't, they can always ask the commune. Anyway, can a living person be killed by holding their urine?
Village chief Chen no longer had the patience to argue with Xu Xuehua and her daughter. It was meaningless to him.
"Carry all the people away." Village Chief Chen ordered.
Several men stepped forward and were about to take action when Song Yun, who had been silent for a while, spoke up. "I'll pay for their treatment, and I'll also find a way to send them to the Dang Health Center. If that doesn't work, sending them to the Dang County Hospital will also be fine. Is that okay?"
What the hell! Village chief Chen's face was very ugly. "It's impossible to take them away. They are from our village. As the village chief, I will take care of them and carry them away." Village chief Chen shouted again.
Song Yun sneered, "Are you so afraid that we'll send them to the hospital? Could it be that their poisoning has something to do with you?"
Village Chief Chen's face changed, and she angrily said, "What nonsense are you talking about, you crazy woman? They went up the mountain to pick poisonous mushrooms and cooked them at home. What does this have to do with me?"
Song Yun, "Who said the poison they were infected with was from poisonous mushrooms?"
When Song Yun said this, even Xu Xuehua, Xu Shuhua and others looked surprised.
Village Chief Chen's expression froze, a dark glint flashing in his eyes. Then, with a gloomy face, he said, "Someone saw them eating mushrooms picked from the mountain, and then they became like this. If it's not mushrooms, what is it? If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense here."
Song Yun smiled and said, "Whether or not someone has eaten poisonous mushrooms is not determined by who saw what and then spread the word. It is determined by the patient's oral statement and medical evaluation."
Xu Xuehua asked: "If it's not mushroom poisoning, then what kind of poisoning is it?"
Song Yun looked at the unconscious man and said, "Their symptoms are very similar to those of a poisoned patient I treated before. That patient was fed rat poison by her mother-in-law."
As soon as the word "rat poison" came out, panic flashed across Village Chief Chen's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. He said coldly, "I don't know what nonsense you're talking about. The family is alive and well. Why would they commit suicide by taking rat poison? You're just talking nonsense." Then he shouted at the villagers he had brought with him, "What are you still standing there for? Why don't you carry the person back home and leave him here to die?"
"Let's see who dares to move." Song Yun stepped forward and said to Xu Shuhua, "Sister Shuhua, please report the case to the Public Security Bureau. Tell them there's a suspected poisoning case here and ask them to come quickly to protect the victim."
Several villagers were shocked by Song Yun's words and didn't dare to move. There was a hint of suspicion in their eyes when they looked at Village Chief Chen.
Village Chief Chen was furious and glared at the villagers, "Do you have pig brains? Do you listen to her or me? I am the village chief. How can I harm the villagers?"
Xu Xuehua said, "We are doctors. How could we harm our patients? They are in a very serious condition. We told them to be taken to the hospital immediately, but you refused to listen and insisted on carrying them back home. You even threw dirty water on us. What are you thinking?"
Village Chief Chen's words and actions were indeed abnormal. Not only Xu Xuehua noticed it, but several villagers in Xiaba Village also felt it. They felt a chill in their hearts, and a lot of messy thoughts popped up in their minds, which they couldn't stop.
Xu Shuhua was about to leave when Village Chief Chen stopped her. "Don't leave. This is our Xiaba Village's business. It has nothing to do with you. I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. If they end up blaming you, you won't end up well."
