Chapter 158: Human Prejudice is a Mountain
Everyone's eyes were focused on the child, not even daring to breathe. Their hearts were in their throats before they heard the child's answer.
The only person who remained calm and composed was Chu Yue.
The little child didn't know what was going on. He just watched the people around him get nervous and felt the sweetness in his mouth. He reached out his hand in a daze and grabbed the old hand of Village Chief Lu.
Manzizi mumbled, "Grandpa, I don't feel any pain anymore."
It doesn’t hurt anymore! The child’s hand doesn’t hurt anymore!
Village Chief Lu felt the grip on his palms tightly, just like the child's usual grip.
He suddenly fell into great ecstasy, reaching out and touching the child's arm, from the shoulder to the elbow, and then to the wrist. Not only was there no visible sign of distortion, it even felt normal to the touch.
"Manzi, does it hurt here? Here? And here? Does it hurt?"
No matter what Village Chief Lu asked, Manzizi just shook his head. Instead, he felt a little annoyed that his grandfather was disturbing him from concentrating on eating candy.
The mother holding Manzaizi also reacted after being extremely shocked. Her tears suddenly stopped and she looked at the scene in disbelief. She kept touching Manzaizi's hand to confirm it again and again, and laughed as she touched it.
She shouted excitedly, "Dad, the little guy is really better!"
Yes, the child is fine!
The surrounding villagers witnessed the great sorrow and joy of Village Chief Lu's family. When they looked at Chu Yue again, their eyes changed.
At this time, Chu Yue was no longer a young girl, but a doctor with real skills.
"It's a doctor! A real doctor! Doctors in the city are just different!"
"That's not true! I heard that people in the city are all educated and have different abilities! Maybe this girl is even a college student."
"I've had a headache and fever these past few days, so I just wanted to see her! This is the first time I've seen such a great doctor..."
The villagers' discussions about Chu Yue also changed.
Sometimes people’s prejudices are like a mountain, and only practical actions can break it.
Song Hongmei walked over to Chu Yue, looked at her with admiration, and praised her sincerely, "Ayue, well done!"
Chu Yue smiled confidently, looking proud, like a soldier who had won a battle.
Everywhere in this land is a battlefield.
Taking the "Manzaizi incident" as an example, the villagers developed a high level of trust in Chu Yue, and subsequent tasks went much more smoothly.
Song Hongmei no longer had to worry about Chu Yue, and she took Li Weiguo and Xue Zhanlin to do field research.
Village chief Lu placed two tables and a chair at the door of his house for Chu Yue to sit comfortably, and then asked the villagers who needed to see a doctor to line up and take turns to see the doctor.
We also took out persimmon cakes from their homes.
Last winter, we picked persimmons from the mountains and strung them together one by one with hemp ropes. A whole bunch was hung in a windy and snowy place. After a winter of wind and sun, the moisture in the persimmons evaporated and they gradually dried up.
The color changed from the original orange to a khaki color, but once the tough outer skin was torn off, the dried flesh inside the persimmon was shiny and like honey, and it would burst. [Picture]
When eating persimmon cakes, you can not only taste the texture of the outer layer, but also the sweetness of the soft and flowing center.
These persimmon cakes are the best things in Village Chief Lu’s home, but they are not served to ordinary guests and are only used to entertain distinguished guests.
When Manzaizi saw the persimmon cakes, he smacked his lips and tasted the sweetness of the fruit candy. His eyes were fixed on the persimmon cakes on the table. While the adults were not paying attention, he wanted to reach out and take them secretly.
When Village Chief Lu saw this, he immediately reached out and hit Manzizi.
He, who usually doted on his grandson the most, scolded him sternly, "These are not for you to eat, they are for Doctor Chu! Go, go, go play somewhere else, don't disturb Doctor Chu from treating us all."
Previously, because of his suspicion of Chu Yue and excessive worry about Manzizi, Village Chief Lu said some unpleasant words to Chu Yue.
After all, he is the head of the village and he is too embarrassed to apologize. He can only express his gratitude and respect to Chu Yue through this practical action.
Chu Yue knew that it was not easy for farmers to get some good things at home. She did not eat the persimmon cakes, but asked Village Chief Lu for a cup of hot tea, then took out the medical tools for measuring blood pressure and started a busy day.
"Doctor Chu, I always have a headache and can't hear clearly..."
"Doctor Chu, I'm old and my knees hurt so badly when it rains that I can't even walk..."
"Doctor Chu, please take a look at my husband's arm. Why is there a bump here?"
"Doctor Chu..." "Doctor Chu..."
In the blink of an eye, the three words "Dr. Chu" have become the most popular word in the entire village.
Chu Yue referred to the work notes given by Doctor Hao while checking the actual condition of each patient and providing practical and useful treatment plans.
If the patient is young or middle-aged, she usually gives the medicine directly or uses Western medicine treatment methods. Young people have good immunity and are more receptive to Western medicine, so they just need to take the medicine according to the prescription.
If it is an elderly person, it is a chronic disease that has lasted for decades. Even Chu Yue does not have the ability to bring the disease back to life. She can only help him to keep fit.
So Chu Yue wrote a lot of Chinese medicine prescriptions that were suitable for their symptoms and asked them to buy the Chinese medicine and boil it for consumption.
Patients came one after another, and the line was long and long, as if everyone in the entire village had come. Chu Yue didn't even have time to catch her breath, and she didn't even have time to eat lunch.
Village Chief Lu suggested that Chu Yue rest and even let her have dinner at their home. "Doctor Chu, you are a great benefactor to our Lu family and even more so to our entire village! Hurry up and rest and have dinner. The hot dishes are ready, I hope you don't mind."
Chu Yue didn't mind it, as she had experienced many difficult situations.
But this time she came out with Song Hongmei. They were all members of the organization, and the organization had regulations that they could not take even a single needle or thread from the masses.
The conditions in the village were generally poor. When Chu Yue ate a bite of food at noon, she might have eaten up other people's rations, and some people had to go hungry.
Chu Yue rejected Village Chief Lu's offer and said, "The villagers are all waiting in line with empty stomachs. We can't let them wait too long. I'll finish looking after everyone first."
She didn't argue with Village Chief Lu. After she finished speaking, she lowered her head to write the prescription and asked about the patient's condition. She never stopped from beginning to end.
Village chief Lu rubbed his eyes, feeling a little sore in the corners of his eyes. He had never seen such a hard-working young girl.
