Aunt Wang's face turned pale and she spoke incoherently, "It's... it's Old Li... He suddenly fainted! His mouth is crooked and his eyes are slanted... It looks like... like he had a stroke!"
"Stroke?!" Shen Qiqi's heart tightened. Old Li was a well-known diehard in the village who firmly resisted new medical treatment. This stroke was undoubtedly adding insult to injury.
She immediately grabbed the medicine box, "Quick! Take me there!"
Night fell over the village, and the air was filled with tension.
Shen Qiqi ran all the way with Aunt Wang, her heart pounding like a rabbit in her chest.
The door of Old Li's house was already crowded with people, and noisy discussions were heard one after another.
"What a sin! Old Li is getting his comeuppance!"
"That's right! Who told him not to listen to advice and insist on believing in those old prescriptions?"
"Oh, what should I do..."
Shen Qiqi pushed through the crowd and saw Old Li lying unconscious on the bed with a purple face and foam coming out of his mouth.
The situation is critical!
She ignored the discussions around her and immediately began to provide first aid.
Acupuncture, massage, medication...
Shen Qiqi's technique was skillful and her movements were swift, with beads of sweat oozing from her forehead.
Time passed minute by minute, the air seemed to freeze, and everyone's heart was in their throat.
Finally, Old Li let out a faint groan and slowly opened his eyes.
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Qiqi...thank you..." Old Li said weakly, with a hint of guilt in his tone.
Shen Qiqi smiled with relief: "I'm glad you're okay. How do you feel now?"
Old Li struggled to sit up, and Shen Qiqi quickly supported him: "Don't move, have a good rest."
Old Li looked at Shen Qiqi, his eyes full of gratitude: "Qiqi, I was really confused before..."
Shen Qiqi knew that Old Li had figured it out, and she was happy for him.
After this incident, the villagers' attitude towards new medical care changed dramatically.
They witnessed Shen Qiqi's medical skills with their own eyes and realized the importance of health.
More and more villagers began to accept the new medical treatment, and Shen Qiqi's goal seemed to be within reach.
In order to completely change the current situation of rural medical care, Shen Qiqi came up with a more daring plan.
She began contacting some retired doctors, hoping they could come to the village to help.
At first, these retired doctors were a little hesitant. After all, rural medical conditions are difficult, and they have become accustomed to the leisurely life after retirement.
But Shen Qiqi did not give up. She called again and again, visited again and again, and moved them with her sincerity and enthusiasm.
Finally, several retired doctors agreed to come to the village to help.
Shen Qiqi jumped up excitedly, her excitement evident in her words.
"That's great! Now the medical level of our village will definitely be improved!" She said to Lu Qing excitedly.
Lu Qing looked at her happy expression and smiled too.
He knew that Shen Qiqi's dream was finally coming true.
However, at this moment, a noisy discussion came from the village...
"This... where did this old man come from? Is he reliable or not?"
"That's right. He looks like he's almost buried. What disease can he cure?"
"I think we should stop messing around, or we might end up hurting the patient!"
In the village alleys, whispers sound like mosquitoes and flies buzzing in the summer.
Those newly arrived retired doctors, with their unshaven beards and gray hair, did indeed make some older villagers suspicious, and small flames of distrust began to spread in the village.
There was a hint of depression in the air, like the calm before the storm.
Shen Qiqi frowned. She was not the kind of soft persimmon that would be scared off by rumors!
With a confident smile on her lips, she cleared her throat and said loudly, "Fellow villagers, these are not just 'old men'. They are retired doctors from big cities with rich experience. They are the real deal!"
She waved her hand, signaling the retired doctors to come forward.
An old doctor wearing reading glasses slowly began to talk about the classic cases of his patients in the past, including difficult and complicated diseases and patients who were brought back to life. His descriptions were so vivid, just like he was telling a story, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Another old doctor was not to be outdone. He directly took out his certificate of honor for decades of medical practice. It was so dazzling with gold that it almost blinded the villagers. The old men and women in the village who had never seen the world suddenly widened their eyes and opened their mouths as if they had seen some rare treasure.
Shen Qiqi felt relieved as she watched the expressions on the villagers' faces change from confusion to curiosity, and then to a hint of admiration.
She knew that these days, strength was everything!
She began to use her eloquence again, praising the merits of these retired doctors to the skies, saying that they could bring people back to life with their miracle doctors and that they were like Bian Que again. She almost praised them to the sky.
The village, which was originally shrouded in gloom, was suddenly revitalized by Shen Qiqi's actions.
The villagers began to whisper to each other, discussing the magical powers of these doctors, and the spark of curiosity quickly spread.
Just then, hurried footsteps were heard at the entrance of the village, and a young man came running over breathlessly, "Oh no! Oh no! Aunt Wang seems... seems..." Before he could finish his words, his face turned pale with fright.
Shen Qiqi's heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition arose. She suddenly looked at the crowd, "What's going on?"
"Aunt Wang's water broke and she's about to give birth!" The young man finally caught his breath, and his words made everyone present gasp in shock.
