She couldn't believe it: "Is he really going to wake up?"

A vegetative person doesn't eat or drink with his mouth, but he can still taste bitterness. Does this mean his sense of smell may have recovered?

Jiang Xi thought about it, picked up the half-drunk sugar water on the table, scooped a little with a spoon, and put it into his mouth. Of course, Pei Hejun would not open his mouth by himself, so she half-lifted him up, leaned him against her, then directly pried open his lips and teeth with her fingers and poured the sugar water into him.

The brown sugar water tastes sweet, but if a person is in a serious vegetative state, he will not be able to swallow it on his own. But this time he seemed to feel it, his Adam's apple moved, and only a small amount of water overflowed.

He drank it!

Jiang Xi's eyes lit up. He put the man down, wiped the corner of his mouth, and found that his frown had relaxed.

“There’s a real reaction!”

The system was excited when it heard this, and typed much faster: [I told you! The host had his eyes open before, and you said it was a normal reaction]

[Wuwuwu, the host is finally well. You know, he had a big mission before the accident——]

Halfway through the second sentence, the system suddenly froze.

Two seconds later, the second half of the second sentence disappeared.

It continued very normally: [If the host wakes up, he will definitely take the initiative to complete the tasks. Even if he doesn't know what the tasks are, he will automatically complete them. Then I will have two points income! ]

Jiang Xi laughed, not paying attention to the system jam, and said calmly: "His condition has improved a lot, but we can't expect too much. But it would be great if he could really wake up."

Although Pei Hejun died in the book, it was because his two brothers did not take good care of him. The vegetative state is special and as fragile as plants. If they are not taken care of properly, problems will arise. Now Jiang Xi takes good care of him and his body should have recovered well.

However, as a doctor in her previous life, she had seen too many situations, so she did not dare to have too high expectations. She just tried her best and did not even dare to tell Pei's parents.

She sighed and asked, "System, is there an electric fan?"

[Yes!] The system seemed to really believe that Pei Hejun was about to wake up, and was in a very high mood. It took the initiative to display all kinds of electric fans in the mall, and even made a shining border special effect for her to see: [Host wife, which one do you want? They are all very good.]

Jiang Xi took a quick glance and was stunned by the dazzling array of items.

She really wanted a big electric fan, a very large one, so that she wouldn't have to fan herself and get tired.

However, she looked at it for a long time with greed, but had no idea at all.

I can buy an electric fan, but there is no electricity!

There is no electricity in the countryside here.

Jiang Xi asked the system to close the mall. She let go of Pei Hejun's hand, fanned herself, and fell asleep.

To be honest, if the conditions here weren't so bad, this would really be heaven.

Pei's parents were good to her, so she had a source of income, but the work was not heavy and she had no boss. When there were no patients, she could lie down and rest, which was much better than sitting in the office all day.

She was muttering when there was a knock on the door. Mother Pei's slightly excited voice rang out from outside the door: "Xiaoxi, are you asleep?"

Jiang Xi sat up and said, "No, Mom, come in."

Mother Pei immediately opened the door, her expression particularly joyful, a little less than that of the wedding banquet. She first glanced at her son, and seeing that he was fine, her smile became even more intense. She walked to the bed next to Jiang Xi and sat down: "Something big happened at the sanitation center just now!"

"The new team doctor was scolded by Xisheng's mother. Now everyone in the team knows what he did! I wonder how he can stay in the team anymore!"

Jiang Xi sat up straighter and looked at her with great interest: "What's going on?"

Forgive her, it's so boring here, that's the only fun there.

Pei's mother smiled in understanding and began to describe to her in vivid detail the farce that had just occurred at the clinic at the entrance of the next village.

After Xisheng's mother was rescued from Pei's house, she ran away, shouting about the money she had been cheated out of.

She didn't go back, but went to find the team doctor.

As someone who could even talk down to the doctors at the town clinic, she was used to being shameless in this regard, especially since she was in the right this time.

Xisheng's mother didn't need anyone's help. She rushed to the clinic with the jar of medicine. The fever of being a team doctor had not yet subsided, and there were still a bunch of people waiting to see a doctor in the clinic. When they saw her coming, they thought she was also here to see a doctor.

But she stood next to the examination table holding the medicine bottle and started to cry at the top of her voice: "This team doctor is so heartless! He charged me five dollars for a medicine that cost one dollar, and even lied to me that it can help me have a baby. What a liar! This big liar bullied a commoner like me!!!"

She is a great singer and songwriter, which attracted a lot of attention from people. After listening to the content of the song, their eyes changed.

Even the team doctor Li Quan, who hadn't noticed her at all, was startled. Maybe because he felt guilty or something, he stood up suddenly, his face turned pale, and he shouted angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Xisheng's mother wiped her tears and said, "I didn't lie. You just cheated me out of money. You also said that if I drank thirty yuan worth of medicine continuously, my daughter-in-law would give birth to a son. I paid you all the money, but the medicine you gave me was just a tonic. I asked other doctors for help! You cheated me out of money!"

After hearing this, Li Quan was shocked for a moment. It was already a hot summer day and at this moment, all the hairs on his body stood up and sweat covered his whole body in the blink of an eye. He didn't expect that in such a small mountain village, someone could actually tell what these medicinal herbs were used for!

Wow!

The people around them gasped in surprise, with suspicious eyes wandering between the two people. Many people whispered to each other, but some people didn't quite believe it, mainly because this person still had a criminal record. A kind-hearted aunt frowned and said, "Xisheng's mother, please don't talk nonsense!"

"That's right! Doctor Li is the team doctor! Is it necessary to do such a deceptive thing? Besides, he has only been here for a few days."

Someone helped to speak up, and Li Quan quickly calmed down, put on an unhappy face and said: "Don't listen to other people's nonsense, this medicine is definitely a good medicine. There are so many medicinal materials, how can you know which one is good and which one is bad? Not to mention that there are some precious medicinal materials in it. In addition, this prescription is also passed down by my master's ancestors. I won't take it out easily, otherwise, how can I charge so much for it?"

Is Xisheng's mother so easy to deal with?

She was convinced that she had been deceived. When she looked at Doctor Li again, she was no longer afraid. Instead, she said with a straight neck, "The one who said that is the daughter-in-law of the Pei family. She also knows medical skills. If you don't agree, let's go to the clinic in town and ask the doctors there to see what your medicine is. Is it worth charging me five yuan a piece?"

Li Quan's heart sank. He didn't expect that she didn't believe what he said at all. He couldn't help but feel that the situation was a bit tricky.

After hearing this, everyone's faces turned strange. Even those who originally supported Doctor Li began to disbelieve him. If they dared to go to the clinic in the town, it meant that they had some ulterior motives.

Looking at Li Quan again, his face was really dark.

Some people whispered: "Is he really a liar?"

Immediately, a voice said: "If this is a liar, who would dare to let him come to see a doctor?"

"To be honest, it's better to ask Pei's daughter-in-law to help. Although she needs to order eggs, the price is not expensive."

Li Quan listened to the murmurs with a sullen face, clenched his fists tightly, and said in a cold voice: "I said I didn't lie, so I didn't lie. If you don't believe me, return the medicine to me! Since you don't believe me, don't come to see me in the future."

Then he looked at the people who were originally queuing in front of him but now gathered together to watch the excitement, and said unhappily, "You are the same. If you believe in me, then listen to me. If you don't believe me, hurry up and leave. There are so many people here. I am so tired of seeing patients every day."

He was so self-righteous that a small number of people actually believed him again, and the whispers decreased a lot.

Xisheng's mother was also upset. She had already offended the young daughter-in-law of the Pei family. If she offended this doctor again, no one would treat her. When she thought of the money she had been cheated of, she was furious. She gritted her teeth and stuffed the medicine jar over: "Okay, you pay me ten yuan."

Li Quan took the medicine jar and his expression was about to improve, but when he heard her words, he questioned, "Isn't it five dollars? You cooked all the herbs, and I haven't even settled the bill with you yet, and you're asking me to pay you ten dollars?!"

Xisheng's mother said as a matter of course: "You tricked me into taking this and asked me to carry it around. Do you know how much money I brought to make this medicine? No matter what, you have to compensate me more. Eight yuan cannot be less!"

Li Quan refused directly: "No way! I will pay you at most four dollars!"

Those medicinal herbs cost one dollar each!

"Four dollars?" Xisheng's mother was not happy. She sat down and cried, "This is so unfair! I was cheated by this doctor. He didn't even give me my money back. Everyone came to see him. This team doctor is bullying ordinary people!"

She cried and sang at the same time, and her voice could be heard from far away.

It happened to be morning, close to lunch time, and except for the people who were cooking, everyone else had finished their own chores and were waiting to eat, so they were idle, so it really attracted quite a few people.

Seeing the situation getting out of control, Li Quan felt his scalp tingling.

He really was just being greedy for a moment. His master also prescribed medicine in the same way, and those people really got pregnant after being cured. Why didn't it work for him?

Many people have already started to point fingers.

Li Quan couldn't bear it anymore and surrendered: "Okay, I'll give you eight pieces, don't say anything!"

When Xisheng's mother heard that there was money, she immediately stopped making a fuss, stood up and looked at him expectantly.

Li Quan took out his money with a gloomy face. Just as he handed the money to her, he heard a scolding: "We are doing a retrospective. Welcome to join us. Tens of thousands of historical novels are free to read. What?!"

Pei Shengcai, the captain of the Sixth Brigade, walked over quickly, pulled Li Quan behind him, and scolded him, "Auntie Fen, are you here to cheat again? I have already criticized you for what happened in the town. How can you bully Li Quan, who has just arrived?"

Xishengniang: “?”

Li Quan: “!”

Pei Shengcai actually came!

Li Quan felt a chill on his back and quickly turned around to find that his cousin Lin Tao was looking at him with a gloomy face. Besides him, there were also the deputy captain and the accountant.

Oops! Things have gotten out of hand.

If it were just these few foolish women, he could still fool them, but now the team leader is here, and his cousin and those people in the team are here too, so he's afraid there's going to be a problem.

Li Quan was not a powerful person, otherwise he would not have come here to be a six-centimeter team doctor. Seeing that the situation was no longer under his control, especially when Pei Shengcai was still protecting him and scolding the foolish woman, his legs went weak.

It's only been a few days since I arrived and something unexpected happened?

Li Quan could only say dryly: "No, it's okay, Captain, you don't have to..."

Pei Shengcai said with a straight face: "You don't need to make excuses to her. I still remember what she did!" Then he said in a sharp voice: "Auntie Fen, why don't you apologize to Doctor Xiao Li?"

Xisheng's mother would not do this. She could still argue even if she was wrong, not to mention that now that she was finally right and was reprimanded by the captain twice, she said angrily:

"I didn't! He took a one-dollar herb and lied to me that it was a five-dollar herb that could help my daughter-in-law give birth to a son. I bought it back, and Doctor Pei saw through it at a glance and gave me an identical one. What do you think happened? Should I ask him to compensate me?"

Pei Shengcai's eyes widened, and he looked back and forth at the two people: "Is this true?"

After watching for a while, the people who were excited also nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, we are all watching. This time it is really not Aunt Fen's business."

"It was the doctor who made the mistake. Captain, please don't blame Aunt Fen."

Xisheng's mother smiled complacently, counted the eight yuan in her hand, and after confirming that it was correct, she said, "Captain, I did nothing wrong this time, please stop criticizing me, and Doctor Li, you have to give me my jar."

Pei Shengcai looked at Li Quan meaningfully and said disappointedly, "So that's how it is, Doctor Li, I remember you've only been here for five days, right?"

Li Quan was already feeling very uncomfortable and wanted to explain, but he didn't know how to do it.

Pei Shengcai's face turned grim, and he questioned, "Doctor Li, we invited you to be the team doctor, and this is how you repay us? To put it bluntly, this is a scam!"

Li Quan was shocked and looked at his cousin for help with a pale face.

Lin Tao quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: "Captain, my cousin is young and naive. He probably doesn't know that this prescription is so cheap. He didn't do it on purpose. I think we should just let it go."

"Forget it? Can you rest assured that he can treat the disease?" Pei Shengcai said in a deep voice.

Lin Tao smiled apologetically: "He doesn't dare to do it again. He was ignorant and made a mistake this time. Next time, he will be more cautious and will not let go. If he does it again, I, as his cousin, will be the first one to let him go. OK?"

Li Quan nodded frantically: "Yes, Captain, give me another chance, I promise I won't do this again."

Deputy Captain Zhou Xin also said, "That's right. Doctor Li is not very old. How could he dare to do such a thing? It must have been done by the original master. He is ignorant and follows others. How can people not make mistakes? Just give him another chance."

The remaining two accountants and cashiers looked at each other and said nothing. The more they said, the more mistakes they would make. But if they said nothing, it would be better. Anyway, this job was a stable job and they could keep doing it as long as they didn't make any mistakes.

Pei Shengcai glanced at the bustling crowd around him, no one was talking, and felt a little disappointed.

This matter is not a big deal, but it is not a small matter either. However, we do need to change the team doctor, which is not enough.

He gritted his teeth and forced a smile: "Okay, but as a team doctor, he should be punished for doing such a thing. Just deduct one month's work points. From now on, everyone will supervise him carefully. If he doesn't do a good job, he won't be a team doctor anymore!"

He spoke these last two sentences quite loudly.

Everyone around heard it, and many people who were looking for trouble shouted at the top of their voices: "Captain, rest assured, we will supervise it carefully."

Li Quan also smiled and said, "Yes, let the villagers supervise!"

Pei Shengcai snorted coldly and strode away.

The two people behind him exhaled at the same time and relaxed their shoulders. Li Quan was about to smile and thank his cousin when Lin Tao kicked him and cursed, "You idiot!"

Li Quan staggered after being kicked: "..."
