Chapter 11: Reversal...
On the other side, Yang Guangzu looked at his brother in confusion, not understanding why he was waiting for him to get off work today.
He casually hung his briefcase on the handlebars of his bicycle. "Is something wrong at home?"
"Hehe! No, no." Yang Guangyao waved his hands proudly.
Without waiting for his elder brother to continue asking questions, he could no longer contain his inner excitement and blurted out all the joy in his heart.
"Brother, you don't know, it's the new clinic that opened in our town...hahahaha..."
"Hahahaha!" Yang Guangyao bent down and covered his stomach, tears already coming out of the corners of his eyes.
The opening of the clinic was a big deal, and since the town was small, Yang Guangzu naturally heard about the news of the clinic's opening.
But in his opinion, there was only one young girl in the clinic, and it would not have any impact on him or the health center, so he didn't care at all.
He thought that such petty quarrels were disrespectful to the health center.
"She's just a little girl who doesn't know her place. If you keep paying attention to her, you're only boosting her morale."
Hearing this, Yang Guangyao quickly shut his mouth and explained awkwardly:
"I'm worried that the newly opened clinic will affect the health center. Now it seems that you have a keen eye, big brother. I've been observing for three days, three whole days."
He held up three fingers to emphasize, "For three days, not a single patient has come to the clinic. It seems everyone in town thinks you're a skilled doctor, brother, and they trust you alone. From now on, you'll have the final say in this town's health center."
Although Yang Guangzu didn't care, he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride when he heard his brother's words.
He raised his chin indifferently, "Can't you just focus on the right path? You just sit there all day long with no one coming..."
At this moment, the two of them happened to pass by the door of the clinic, and Yang Guangzu happened to see a black shadow breaking into the clinic.
He even felt that the black shadow looked somewhat familiar.
Then his voice stopped abruptly.
Yang Guangyao didn't understand why his elder brother suddenly stopped scolding. He followed his elder brother's gaze and saw Chen Yin stop closing the door and turn back to the clinic.
Turning around suddenly, he saw that his elder brother's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water was about to drip out of it, and an unbelievable guess immediately came to his mind.
At this moment, a cold snort exploded in my ears. "Hmph!"
When I turned around, I saw that my elder brother Yang Guangzu had already left on his bicycle.
Knowing that he had done something wrong, Yang Guangzu quickly ran to catch up, trying to explain that he really did not lie and that there was really no one in the clinic seeking medical treatment before.
At the same time, he was already thinking about finding out the person who had embarrassed him in front of his elder brother.
Inside the clinic, Chen Yin and the young woman in front of her were unaware of what was happening outside.
Chen Yin looked at the girl who didn't dare to reveal her true face and said softly:
"There's no need to hide anything here. We doctors won't disclose patients' information casually."
After she finished speaking, the other party still did not move, so she had to show her authority as a doctor.
"A Chinese doctor's diagnosis involves observation, auscultation, olfaction, questioning, and palpation. If you don't remove the veil, please leave on your own. I cannot cure your illness."
As she spoke, Chen Yin made a gesture to get up and leave.
"Oh, oh, oh!" The young girl Yang Yunxiang became anxious and quickly pulled off the veil on her face, revealing a face that was red with shame.
"Doctor, please don't leave. I...I...I'm here to see a doctor."
Hearing this, Chen Yin returned to her seat and calmly observed the other person's expression, listened to the voice, and smelled the odor.
Then, she took out the paper and pen beside her and said:
"Name and age."
"Do I have to say this?" Yang Yunxiang asked with her head lowered.
"Of course, our clinic is a legitimate hospital, and this information needs to be retained for inspection by higher authorities."
When Yang Yunxiang heard the words "superior unit", she ignored her inner shyness and quickly said the name.
"My name is Yang Yunxiang, and I'm twenty years old."
"Tell me what's wrong with your body lately?" Chen Yin said in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, Yang Yunxiang immediately turned his head and looked left and right, as if trying to see if there was anyone else around.
"It's just me and my mother in the clinic. Don't worry if you have anything to say."
Sure enough, upon hearing this, the shackles on Yang Yunxiang's body suddenly loosened. She no longer concealed the abnormality of her body, nor did she show the shyness she had when she first arrived.
"Doctor Chen, I just want to ask if my body is capable of bearing a child? My mother is planning to arrange a blind date for me soon."
When talking about marriage, a burning heat spreads from my heart to my cheeks.
But when he thought of his own body, his face suddenly turned pale and his whole body became cold. It was even difficult for him to clench his fists.
At this time and place, Chen Yin had already anticipated the patient's purpose.
Therefore, in response to Yang Yunxiang's request, she did not express any other feelings except sighing in her heart that it was the same in ancient and modern times.
"Why do you have such doubts? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
Involving her daughter's private affairs, Yang Yunxiang blushed again and stammered:
"It's just...I haven't had my period in the past year."
"In the last year?"
"Yes, I used to have less periods, but I still had them. But since last September, I haven't had any. My mom said that girls can only get married and have children if they have their periods. So, for someone like me, will I never be able to have children? And I won't be able to get married?"
Speaking of this, Yang Yunxiang looked at Chen Yin, who was of the same age as her, and felt sad. She believed that Chen Yin would be able to understand her panic.
But the situation was a little different from what she had imagined. Chen Yin did not feel shy when she heard about menstruation, nor did she feel pity when she heard about her own miserable situation.
Her expression was calm and expressionless, exactly the same as when Yang Yunxiang entered the room, without any change.
For some reason, seeing such a doctor, Yang Yunxiang's heart gradually calmed down. She looked at Chen Yin expectantly, as if she had regarded Chen Yin as her life-saving straw.
"Besides missing your period, are there any other abnormalities in your body?"
The calm voice brought Yang Yunxiang back to consciousness. She pondered for a moment and asked tentatively:
"Does it count as I've had a lot of nosebleeds in the past year? I've taken a lot of medicine and nothing works."
Hearing this, Chen Yin raised her eyes, looked at the other person, nodded and said, "Of course it counts. Tell me about any changes you feel in your body."
Then, Yang Yunxiang started talking freely, not only talking about the changes in her body, but also about the unpleasant things at work. She had already treated Chen Yin as a person to confide in.
When he had to stop talking because his mouth was dry, Yang Yunxiang realized what a stupid thing he had done.
"Doctor Chen, I...I..."
Chen Yin's expression remained calm as she asked, as if it were a family matter. "You said you started working last September. Did anything major happen that month?"
When he said this, Yang Yunxiang's face turned red instantly, his eyes were filled with anger, and he immediately expressed his inner dissatisfaction.
In this way, Chen Yin made a preliminary diagnosis of the cause of Yang Yunxiang's illness.
Then she asked Yang Yunxiang to stick out her tongue and observe its shape.
Then, the pulse diagnosis officially began.
"Comrade Yang, please place your hand on the pulse pillow."
After a long pulse diagnosis, Yang Yunxiang looked at Chen Yin with trepidation.
After all, she was the only female doctor in town. If Chen Yin couldn't cure her, she would have no choice but to...
"Doctor Chen, is there any treatment for me?"
Chen Yin nodded and slowly spoke, "The liver qi is moving against the flow, and it's flowing recklessly with the blood. Furthermore, the liver can't store blood, so it overflows and becomes irritated."
Yang Yunxiang's eyes widened at these words. She quickly shook her head and subconsciously leaned towards Chen Yin. "Doctor Chen, can you just tell me if there's any cure for me?"
"Yes. You've been experiencing retrograde menstruation. Last year, you were furious, causing your liver qi to surge, aggravating the condition. As a result, your menstrual blood has stagnated and taken on a different form. A single dose of Shunjing Decoction will be enough to cure it."
As she spoke, Chen Yin wrote down her diagnosis on a piece of paper and took out a new piece of paper to write a prescription.
At this moment, Yang Yunxiang vaguely understood something.
Her nosebleed was actually due to her menstruation being reversed!!!
For a moment, she wanted to rush out of the clinic to clean her nose, and even felt that she was dirty all over.
But thinking that the doctor had not yet prescribed or dispensed the medicine, Yang Yunxiang could only suppress her inner impulse and stay where she was restlessly.
Chen Yin quickly wrote out the prescription and asked:
"Do you want to get medicine from our clinic, or do you want to do it yourself..."
Before Chen Yin could finish, Yang Yunxiang replied anxiously, "Catch it here, catch it right here!"
"Okay, I'll prescribe three doses for you. One dose twice a day. When boiling, boil three bowls of water until one bowl of water is enough. After taking the medicine, come back to the clinic to check your pulse and see if you're fully recovered."
"Okay, okay!" Yang Yunxiang agreed hurriedly, "I will definitely take my medicine on time and come back to the clinic for a follow-up check."
Then, the two of them stood up and walked to the medicine cabinet.
Chen Yin casually placed the prescription on the counter, opened the medicine cabinet quickly and efficiently, took out all the medicinal ingredients written on the prescription, and placed them one by one on the brown paper.
Yang Yunxiang took a quick glance and was surprised to find that the amount of medicinal herbs that Chen Yin had dropped on the three pieces of brown paper was exactly the same to the naked eye.
At this moment, she respected Chen Yin's medical skills even more.
After a while, three packets of medicine appeared on the counter.
Chen Yin simply calculated in her mind, "A consultation costs fifty cents, and three packets of medicine are four dollars and a half in total. Just give me five dollars."
"Thank you, Doctor Chen." Yang Yunxiang immediately took out five yuan from his pocket and exclaimed in his heart: Too cheap! It's really too cheap!
Even if it can't be cured, it doesn't seem like there will be any harm.
Just as Yang Yunxiang took the medicine, the sound of footsteps entering the clinic immediately made her alert.
Wu Dongmei was about to call her daughter to dinner when she suddenly saw a figure in the clinic.
Looking more closely, he found that the other person was holding three packets of medicine in his hand. His eyes suddenly lit up and he stared at the only patient in three days - Yang Yunxiang.
She couldn't suppress her excitement and asked directly, "Yinyin, someone is here to see the doctor!"
Yang Yunxiang didn't want anyone to find out that she came to see him for such an embarrassing illness, so she grabbed the medicine bag and rushed out the door, leaving Wu Dongmei standing beside her stunned.
"Yin Yin, did I scare the patient?"
"No. Mom, I was going to leave anyway." Chen Yin quickly spoke to comfort her.
Then, while closing the last three door panels, he changed the subject.
"Mom, what are we having for dinner tonight? We've had a great start, so we need to celebrate with a good meal."
Sure enough, Wu Dongmei's attention quickly shifted to dinner.
But after entering the backyard, she always felt that the figure in the clinic was somewhat familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere.
Soon, Wu Dongmei shook her head and stopped thinking about it.
After all, the town is such a small place, it would be really strange that she hasn't met anyone there.
On the other side, Yang Yunxiang hurried home before it got completely dark.
Just before entering the house, she took a deep breath, pretended nothing had happened, and walked into the house as usual, holding her bulging handbag.
Just as she was about to enter her room, a dissatisfied and authoritative male voice sounded.
"You still remember to go home!"
