"Many of these refugees are carrying diseases. These diseases are spreading rapidly and aggressively. The doctors in the city are shaking their heads and sighing."
An elderly doctor returned from the resettlement site and said to Jing Fangchun with a helpless look on his face, "Sir Governor, this disease is so strange, we have never seen it before. We have tried all kinds of medicines but nothing works. We are really at our wits' end."
Jing Fangchun's brows were twisted into a knot. He paced back and forth in the study, thinking day and night, but he could not find a good solution.
His heart was filled with self-blame and helplessness. He felt that as the governor of Youzhou, he had failed to protect the people and let them fall into such a predicament.
In just a few days, he seemed to have aged a lot, and his originally black hair had a few strands of white.
Just when he was at a loss, an aide suddenly mentioned Su Huaiyue's medical skills to him.
"Sir, Miss Su is a skilled doctor. Perhaps she can find a way to treat these refugees."
The staff's words made Jing Fangchun's eyes light up. He almost forgot about this matter.
"Yes, Miss Su is a skilled doctor, maybe she can really help." A glimmer of hope ignited in Jing Fangchun's heart. He hurried to Wei's house, but was told that Su Huaiyue was in a beauty shop in the east of the city.
He rushed to the shop without hesitation, feeling extremely anxious and hoping to find Su Huaiyue as soon as possible.
"Miss Su, you are an excellent doctor. The situation of the refugees in Lingzhou is critical now. I hope you can lend a helping hand and save these poor people." Jing Fangchun said anxiously when he saw Su Huaiyue, his eyes full of earnestness and expectation, as if he had placed all his hopes on her.
When Su Huaiyue heard this, her heart suddenly tightened.
Although she has devoted herself to the decoration of the shop during this period, as a doctor with a kind heart, how can she sit idly by in the face of such difficulties?
The haggard faces and desperate eyes of the refugees emerged in her mind, and a strong sense of responsibility arose spontaneously.
However, she also knew clearly that the renovation of the shop had reached a critical period and there were many complicated matters. Once it stopped, it would be difficult to restart it.
She knew very well how difficult this decision was, but after a moment, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes, as if she had made some important decision.
"The lives of the refugees are important, so the shop matters can be put on hold for now. I will find a treatment method as soon as possible and try not to waste too much time." Su Huaiyue raised his head and said resolutely.
So, Su Huaiyue followed Jing Fangchun to the refugee resettlement site without hesitation.
As soon as she stepped into the area, a pungent smell of medicine and a strong odor hit her in the face, making her frown.
Then, there came the painful groans one after another, like sharp arrows, piercing straight into her heart.
"Miss Su, you're finally here." A doctor in charge of the resettlement site saw Su Huaiyue and hurriedly came forward, his eyes full of anticipation. "The conditions of these refugees are getting worse and worse. We really have no other options. I hope you can help them."
Su Huaiyue nodded, didn't say anything more, and walked directly into the resettlement site.
She saw refugees lying or sitting, some groaning in pain, others lying quietly with empty, despairing eyes. A pang of bitterness welled up in her heart, but she suppressed her shock and quickly began treating them.
After a careful and comprehensive examination, Su Huaiyue found that these symptoms were extremely complicated and were caused by a variety of factors including the special local environment of Lingzhou, such as the humid climate, polluted water sources, and the refugees' long-term hunger and malnutrition.
These symptoms are intertwined and affect each other, making treatment much more difficult. No wonder the doctors in the city are helpless.
"Miss Su, these symptoms are too complicated. We've tried all kinds of prescriptions, but nothing works." A doctor said helplessly, "I hope you can find a solution."
Su Huaiyue nodded, already having a preliminary idea in mind.
She knew that in order to cure these refugees, she had to address multiple aspects, not only to solve their physical illnesses, but also to improve their living environment and dietary conditions.
In the following days, Su Huaiyue seemed to have turned into a tireless spinning top, running around and being busy.
She first ran around all the major pharmacies in Youzhou City, looking for potentially useful medicinal herbs. Her eager figure moved the shop owners.
"Miss Su, just tell us what medicinal herbs you need. We will do our best to find them for you." A drug store owner saw Su Huaiyue's tired look and took the initiative to speak with admiration in his heart.
Su Huaiyue smiled gratefully and made a long list of medicinal herbs.
The shopkeeper took the list and immediately arranged for people to look for these herbs.
Then, Su Huaiyue tried to mix various prescriptions, being very careful every time, for fear of making the slightest mistake.
She filled her room with various medicinal herbs and medical instruments, and studied prescriptions day and night.
Her face often showed a tired look, but her eyes sparkled with determination.
"Huaiyue, you are working too hard. You should get enough rest." Wei Che saw Su Huaiyue's tired look and advised her with heartache.
Su Huaiyue smiled slightly and said, "The lives of these refugees are important. I can't give up."
She stays at the refugee resettlement site all day every day, from the first ray of sunshine in the early morning to the starry night, she devotes herself wholeheartedly to the work of treating refugees.
Her figure moved among the refugees, feeding them medicine, changing their dressings, and comforting them. Her gentle and determined appearance became a ray of warm light in the hearts of the refugees.
"Miss Su, thank you." A refugee took the medicine handed to him by Su Huaiyue, his eyes full of gratitude, "You are truly our savior."
Su Huaiyue smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I will do my best to treat you."
When I returned to the shop, it was often late at night and the whole city was immersed in silence.
Looking at the exhausted Su Huaiyue, Wei Che felt distressed.
So, he took the initiative to undertake most of the tasks of decorating the shop, communicating and coordinating with the craftsmen to ensure that although the renovation work was delayed, it was still progressing slowly but steadily.
"Huaiyue, don't worry about the shop. I will take care of it." Wei Che said to Su Huaiyue, "Just focus on treating the refugees."
Su Huaiyue looked at Wei Che gratefully and said, "Thank you."
However, the treatment process was not smooth sailing.
Due to long-term suffering and fear of unfamiliar environments, some refugees have doubts about Su Huaiyue's treatment plan, and even resist it and are unwilling to cooperate with the treatment.
Their eyes were full of vigilance and distrust, which caused considerable obstacles to Su Huaiyue's rescue work.
"Miss Su, we don't know if this medicine is effective. What if it makes things worse after drinking it?" a refugee said hesitantly.
