Chapter 125 Chapter 125
As soon as he heard that something had happened, Ye Qing no longer cared about watching the show leisurely, and immediately rushed to the Wu family's yard.
After becoming a doctor, she developed the habit of carrying silver needles with her, so when she encountered an emergency like this, she could directly rescue the patient.
Mother Wu fell unconscious on the edge of the kang, and one could tell from her pale face that the situation was not good.
Ye Qing stepped forward and felt the pulse and breathing first. The heart suddenly stopped and the breathing was very weak. Without saying a word, he stepped forward and asked them to tear off the old lady's clothes. Then he quickly pulled out the silver needles and inserted them into several key acupuncture points.
The doctor came, but knowing that he would be of no use at the moment, Xia Hangyi did not stay in the house, but went around several closets and kitchens, trying to find a member of the Wu family.
But after looking around inside and outside the house, no one was found. Even the few children who used to play and fight in the yard were gone.
Xia Hangyi suddenly felt something was wrong, remembering that before Wu Yueying came back, she said she wanted to ask her family to accompany her to the county for a check-up. He couldn't help but wonder, could it be that her eldest and second sisters-in-law had taken the children to the county?
Thinking of this, Xia Hangyi returned to the main room. At this time, Ye Qing had already finished the injection and was pressing quickly and rhythmically on Wu's mother's chest, trying to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation on the old lady.
This is a physically demanding job. The arm is placed vertically in the middle of the patient's sternum, and the lower part needs to be compressed more than a hundred times per minute, while artificial respiration is performed at the same time. The whole set of movements must be very smooth, and the force must be moderate, otherwise it is easy to cause the patient's ribs to be fractured and cause secondary damage to the internal organs of the chest and abdomen.
Fortunately, after repeated repairs and adjustments by her supernatural powers, Ye Qing's body is no longer as useless as it was when she first traveled through time, so she was able to do this with ease, and could do it for five or six minutes without getting red in the face or out of breath.
It was unknown how many times the pressure was applied. Just when Ye Qing was about to give up and was planning to use his supernatural powers for a simple and rough stimulation treatment, the old lady's closed eyeballs finally moved, she began to breathe on her own, and her heart resumed beating.
The person hasn't fully woken up yet, but as long as his heart and breathing circulation are fine, he's alive.
Ye Qing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He quickly removed the silver needle, picked up Aunt Wu and put her back on the kang, helped her put on her clothes, covered her with a quilt to keep her warm, then signaled to Xia Hangyi and walked out the door.
"Mrs. Wu was stimulated and had a sudden attack of coronary heart disease. Angina caused cardiac arrest. Thanks to you for coming at the right time and finding her in time, and for meeting me outside. Otherwise, if she had been delayed for another ten minutes, she would have definitely died. Even a great immortal would have been unable to save her."
Ye Qing still had doubts about Xia Hangyi, but since no one else was at the Wu family, she could only tell Xia Hangyi about Aunt Wu's illness.
"She has been rescued and is expected to wake up in half an hour. But this is a lesson for her. She must be careful in the future and not get too emotional. Otherwise, she may not be as lucky as she was today to have a doctor rush over to save her next time she has an attack."
"Come with me to the health station to get the medicine. I'll write you a prescription and prepare the medicine. You just need to bring it back and boil it according to my instructions. If you don't know how, let my apprentices boil it for you in the pharmacy of the health station and then give it to the old lady. Then just return the medicine jar to me. Aunt Wu's condition is still quite serious. Try not to get out of bed for the next few days. Rest for half a month first."
Having said that, Ye Qing made a gesture to leave.
Xia Hangyi quickly stopped the man and said, "Wait, Ye Zhiqing, do you know where my father-in-law and my two brothers-in-law are? Could you please call them back for me? Something happened to the old lady, and I can't just leave her alone at home just to go to the health station with you to get medicine, right?
Ye Qing glanced at Xia Hangyi.
This guy is not stupid. It is obvious that he has already discovered the abnormality of the Wu family.
It was still the first month of the lunar year, not the busy farming season, and the snow outside hadn't melted yet. The whole family was away, and the old lady had fainted from the shock. Ye Qing didn't ask them to go and find the Wu family, and he left the old lady's condition and the medicine to his son-in-law. There was something strange about this matter, and Xia Hangyi instinctively felt that something was wrong, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
Sure enough, the next second, Ye Qing spoke:
"I'm not sure where the others went, but Captain Wu was taken away by the commune. Your two brothers-in-law should be using their connections in the commune to get them back."
As soon as these words came out, Xia Hangyi's expression froze.
"Taken away by the commune? Why?"
Ye Qing looked at Xia Hangyi with a half-smile, his eyes meaningful:
"Because early this morning, the health station posted a notice, which said that from now on, the health station's daily ticketing work will be handed over to your wife for unified scheduling. The notice had the signature of Captain Wu and the official seal of the Kaoshantun Production Brigade. Captain Wu said that the official seal was stolen and he failed to supervise it, so he asked to resign from his position as the captain of Kaoshantun and took the initiative to surrender himself to the commune."
"I guess Aunt Wu got sick because of this incident."
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention that Aunt Wu accompanied your husband to the county for a birth inspection. When we came back at noon, we happened to run into the commune office staff and police who came to the village to investigate the case. It seems that the person was taken away by the town police station."
Xia Hangyi was stunned, staring at Ye Qing with dull eyes, not knowing how to react for a moment.
Although Ye Qing's words were vague, he still understood them.
The person who used the official seal to issue the notice was Wu Yueying. Wu Yongbing could no longer tolerate Wu Yueying's behavior, so he simply turned himself in and sent Wu Yueying to jail, hurting the enemy by a thousand and hurting himself by eight hundred!
When Wu Yueying deliberately dragged him into the water and plotted against him in such a clumsy way, Xia Hangyi actually saw through Wu Yueying's intention and had a chance to get away.
But at that time he was being overly concerned by his superiors and was in need of a shield. Wu Yueying was a local, quite good-looking, and the daughter of the captain of the Kaoshantun production team. He was worried that he could not find a legitimate reason to approach the village, and with Wu Yueying as a cover, it would be much easier.
So he went with the flow and let Wu Yueying's evil plan succeed. He also asked Qiao Youqing to help act as a matchmaker. After visiting the Wu family several times, he dispelled the doubts of the Wu family and successfully became the son-in-law of Kaoshantun.
Xia Hangyi thought that he had made the right choice. Wu Yueying often acted smart, but in fact she was a fool and was very easy to manipulate. He just showed a little tenderness and affection, and the woman was stupid enough to fall in love with him immediately and was completely defenseless against him. It was impossible to use such a chess piece at will.
But Xia Hangyi had planned everything, but he had never expected that Wu Yueying would be so arrogant and willful and destructive. A trip back to her parents' home had offended the entire Wu family and even the entire Kaoshan Village, and she was directly taken to the police station. This made Xia Hangyi's blood flow backwards instantly, and he was so angry that he almost vomited blood on the spot.
Looking at Ye Qing with a reticent expression in front of him, Xia Hangyi felt that not only was his cheap mother-in-law furious, but he himself was about to have a cerebral infarction.
But Ye Qing had no empathy at all. He shrugged at him and said lightly:
"So I guess you won't be able to find anyone to help you right now, because not only the Wu family, but the whole village is in chaos now. Everyone is worried and doesn't know how to deal with this matter."
"If you can't spare the time right now, you can come back later to get the medicine. I'll leave first. The health station is very busy and cannot be left alone."
After saying this, Ye Qing didn't care about Xia Hangyi's reaction and just walked out.
Xia Hangyi was almost going crazy in his heart, but he had to pretend to be calm on the surface. But as soon as Ye Qing walked away, he rode his bicycle and ran away. Anyway, Ye Qing also said that Wu's mother's condition was no longer dangerous and she would wake up in half an hour, so why would he stay in Wu's house and waste time? He should go to the commune and the police station to find out the situation first!
On the way back, Ye Qing guessed that Xia Hangyi would definitely run away, so after getting a prescription at the health station, she gave the prescription to Meng Jia and asked her to boil the medicine according to the prescription. After the medicine was ready, Ye Qing would deliver it to Aunt Wu.
Although she didn't have much interaction with Wu's mother, and Ye Qing didn't agree with her mother's way of indulging her daughter, she was Wu Yongbing's wife after all, and she had no grudge against Ye Qing. When Ye Qing first arrived and went to Kaoshantun to work in the countryside, she lived in Wu's house on the first day. At that time, she also ate the meals cooked by this Aunt Wu.
So now that Wu's mother has suddenly fallen ill and the Wu family is in chaos and has no time to care about this old lady, Ye Qing can't just stand by and watch.
When the prepared medicine was delivered to the Wu family, Aunt Wu had indeed woken up. However, because she had just had an illness, she felt dizzy and weak. She lay on the kang for a long time without being able to get up and could only continue to lie there.
She tried hard to recall what happened when she was unconscious, and she didn't know how she got to sleep on the kang. She was very thirsty now, but there was no water cup to reach her. She called home several times but no one answered. When she thought that her husband and daughter had been taken away, and her son and daughter-in-law ignored her, she couldn't help but feel anxious and sad, and her eyes turned red again.
As soon as Ye Qing entered the room, she saw the sad look of this lady. It was not convenient for Ye Qing to express her opinion on the Wu family's affairs, but as her patient, she absolutely could not allow the patient under her care to act recklessly and squander the life that she had saved with great difficulty:
"Hey, Aunt Wu, please stop crying. You just had a heart attack and collapsed on the ground. It was a very dangerous situation. You even stopped breathing and your heartbeat stopped. If I hadn't rescued you in time, you would have been taken away by Prince Yan!"
"You must stay calm and take good care of yourself during this illness. You must not have such extreme mood swings. The village officials are trying to solve Uncle Wu's problem. He will be fine. Don't worry about it. I have prepared the medicine for you. Drink it while it's hot."
Only then did Wu's mother realize that she was rescued by Ye Qing and put on the kang. This educated youth from the city also made medicine for her and sent it to her. He took good care of her and reminded her of all kinds of precautions in detail. He was more gentle and considerate than his own son or daughter.
Mother Wu couldn't help but think back to when she learned from Wu Yueying that this girl was dating the boy from the Gu family. She was very critical of the girl and even became dissatisfied after seeing her husband obeying the city educated youth. She disliked Ye Qing very much. Comparing her attitude towards her now, Mother Wu felt ashamed and embarrassed. She looked away and dared not look Ye Qing in the eye. Even her expression was a little unnatural.
Ye Qing didn't care what Wu's mother was thinking. She had already delivered the medicine and watched Wu's mother drink it with her own eyes. Her mission was accomplished. She let the Wu family handle the rest. She believed that with the efficiency of the old branch secretary and others, the chaos in the Wu family would be settled soon.
Just as Ye Qing had expected, while Wu Cong and Wu Min were still gathering information at the commune, the old branch secretary and his colleagues had already brought hundreds of village members to the commune to plead for mercy. The 300 or so households in Kaoshan Village jointly petitioned, collectively demanding that Wu Yongbing be exempted from punishment and allowed to continue serving as the team leader of Kaoshan Village.
Therefore, after learning the details of the situation, Lai Guochang scolded Wu Yongbing in front of everyone and pretended to have a tantrum, but in the end he obeyed public opinion and decided to respect the wishes of the majority of villagers in Kaoshantun and did not dismiss Wu Yongbing from his position as captain.
In the end, the punishment was to confiscate the certificate of honor for the advanced production brigade that the commune had obtained last year. The matter was easily covered up, and Wu Yongbing was released on the same day that the commune took him away for investigation.
Without the advanced certificate, it means that Kaoshantun Brigade has lost the priority and benefits that it could have obtained from the commune this year. However, the village has never been rated as advanced in previous years and has never enjoyed any special benefits from the commune. Therefore, this punishment is not painful and the people in the village do not feel it too much.
But everyone was very happy that Wu Yongbing was acquitted by the commune, especially this time Wu Yongbing was willing to sacrifice himself for the sake of justice, which also earned him the recognition and support of the villagers. In the past, some people questioned Wu Yongbing's way of doing things and his character, but after this incident, his image of being upright, moral and having a bottom line was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and no one would doubt him anymore.
After all, if it were any other cadre in the village, who would have the ruthlessness and courage to resign and send their daughter to jail just because of the theft of an official seal?
Wu Yongbing had not expected that so many people would sign a petition to plead for him, and his request to resign as team leader was opposed not only by the people in the village but also by the commune.
When leaving the commune, Lai Guochang's attitude towards him was the same as before. He only patted him on the shoulder and gave him a warning before leaving:
"I just scolded you in public just to give an explanation to the members below. Don't take it to heart and don't feel any psychological burden."
"But you do learn from your mistakes. You know the changes in Kaoshan Village without me telling you. This is just the beginning. In the future, there will be not only a health station but also a pilot pig farm in the village. And who knows what else that lady will come up with next."
"Your village has picked up such a treasure, and it is developing rapidly, but there will definitely be many problems that come with it. There are countless people who are trying their best to get a piece of the pie or even just pick peaches. So you have to remember the lesson today. From now on, whether it is you or the cadres in the village, everyone must change their mindset and find their position again. You can no longer treat your village as an ordinary production team as you did before."
"I have dealt with you for so many years, and I know you quite well. Your village can only be controlled by you, so you have to be mentally prepared. The next few years will be a great opportunity for Kaoshan Village to develop rapidly, with the right time, right place and right people. You have to continue to work hard for Kaoshan Village and keep a close watch on your village. You must not let your guard down and let outsiders take advantage of the situation!"
Wu Yongbing resigned on impulse before, thinking that since the people in the village had opinions about him, he might as well give up the position of team leader.
But now Lai Guochang's words made him feel relieved and his mind instantly became clear.
Only then did he suddenly realize that, yes, from the fact that so many outsiders had flocked here to see a doctor at the beginning of the year, from the fact that the health station now had a limit of 80 places per day and the demand was insufficient, from the fact that the small pig farm pilot in Kaoshantun was easily approved by the higher authorities, all these things were enough to show that Kaoshantun's current status was indeed different, and it was no longer the poor rural village that everyone shook their heads when they mentioned it.
It goes without saying who has brought about all these changes, and as Ye Qing's die-hard supporter, he should silently support her behind her back, overcome all difficulties to clear all obstacles for her, and help Ye Qing realize her ideals and ambitions. Only then will Kaoshantun, with the big boss's support, be able to eat and drink well and have no worries.
But if he quits his job just because of a small problem, would people still feel at ease to settle down in Kaoshantun and be willing to place all their trust in him?
Wu Yongbing's heart was filled with regret. He realized that his past indulgence of his children had caused such a bad impact today. If he really ruined the opportunity for Kaoshantun to rise from adversity, he would be the sinner of the village, and he would probably never be able to pay off the debt in his lifetime.
Wu Yongbing felt that the burden on his shoulders weighed a thousand pounds, and every step was extremely heavy and difficult. But at this moment, his eyes became unusually firm. After seeing the way forward and the direction clearly, he had a clearer understanding of the position of the captain. Times were changing, and he had to change his mentality. For the development of Kaoshantun, his personal honor and disgrace and the opinions of others were not important at all, and he was willing to pay any price.
The road ahead is long, perhaps full of thorns and difficulties, but no one can stop Kaoshantun from moving forward!
