Chapter 18 Free Clinic Medical Knowledge Promotion
The fisherwoman raised her bloody hands and shouted in panic.
Grandma Wu, who was accompanying the birth, was trembling all over. She thought that her daughter-in-law's cry meant that the baby had been born, but when she looked down, she only saw a small hand.
In an instant, horrifying legends emerged in her mind.
But soon, the campaign to overthrow feudal superstitions that the village party secretary had been promoting in the village in recent years brought her back to her senses.
At this moment, Grandma Wu had no time to consider whether her daughter-in-law was dead or alive. Her heart was completely drawn to the little hand that was clenched into a fist.
The tight time left her no time to think further. She could only desperately pull at the midwife's hand and ask in a trembling voice:
"Fisherwoman! Fisherwoman! Is it only right to cut the baby out of your belly now?"
She also heard about caesarean sections from the villagers, who said it was very popular in the city.
When the fisherwoman heard this, she was immediately confused. "How could I possibly cut open someone's stomach? Go ask the people in the city... the people in the city..."
After saying these three words, the same name popped up in both of their minds - Chen Yin.
At this time, Chen Yin was fixing Wu Jianwei's injured leg, without changing her expression.
But the two people beside him, especially Wu Jianguo who was helping to lift the leg, almost accidentally dropped the injured leg in their hands and wanted to get up to check the situation.
"Calm down! Don't move." Chen Yin warned without even raising her head.
The calm voice instantly calmed Wu Jianguo's panic, and he looked nervously in the direction where the voice came from.
"Are you really not going to go and take a look?"
"But if I'm not careful with my legs, I'll have trouble even walking."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Yin immediately stopped what she was doing and tied the last knot.
"I'm going to check it out. Watch out for his legs. Put them down and then follow me."
After saying that, Chen Yin swiftly grabbed the medicine box and walked quickly towards the room where the smell of blood was even stronger.
As soon as I went out, I bumped into Grandma Wu who came to seek help.
Grandma Wu subconsciously wanted to use her own hands to pull Chen Yin to beg, but as soon as she raised her hands, she was frightened by the blood on them.
There was not a trace of blood on her pale face, and she begged with a mournful look, "Yinyin, my daughter-in-law is not well either. Please go and see her."
"Don't worry, I'm just here to see my sister-in-law."
"Okay, okay! Over here, I'll lead the way for you."
As soon as I got closer, basins of blood were brought out from the house. I knew something was wrong.
Chen Yin ran quickly to catch up and quickly entered the house, and heard the emergency signal from the midwife.
"Oh no! Oh no! The child's hands are turning purple. Could it be that the child can't be saved?"
Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Chen Yin entering the room with Grandma Wu. He immediately grabbed Chen Yin tightly with both hands, hoping that the only doctor at this time could give him a treatment plan.
"Doctor! Please take a look! I really have no other options. My mother is exhausted. Even if I put my hand back in, she won't have the strength to regain it."
Hearing this, Chen Yin lowered her head to glance at the lower body of the woman in labor.
Side birth, wrong birth, deficiency of both qi and blood.
She knew that this was the most critical moment for the mother and child, so she immediately took out a pen and paper and quickly wrote down a dose of soup for the next day.
Zhuantian Decoction uses ginseng as the main ingredient to replenish qi; it adds Chuanxiong and Angelica as the secondary ingredients to replenish blood; and it adds Cimicifuga, Achyranthes bidentata and Aconitum as the adjuvant ingredients to replenish qi and blood to promote labor.
"Quickly boil the above medicine and give it to the woman in labor so that she can have the strength to give birth."
Grandma Wu took the paper, her voice trembling with joy, "Yinyin, you're saying... you're saying Liu'er can still be saved."
"If I delay any longer, I won't be able to tell."
"Okay, okay! I'll go make the medicine right away."
After Grandma Wu left, Chen Yin immediately turned her attention to the only person left in the house - the fisherman's wife.
"Grandma Yu, I need your help."
"Doctor Chen, please speak." When the fisherman's wife saw Chen Yin's calm eyes, her panicked heart suddenly calmed down and she waited for the other party's instructions.
Chen Yin took out the silver needle again, sterilized it with fire, and inserted it into the Yinbai, Chengshan... Mingmen and other hemostatic acupoints of the parturient.
As the fisherwoman looked on in disbelief, the endless flow of blood from the woman's body seemed to be stopping.
Just as she was curious and wanted to continue to get closer to you to observe, a voice suddenly sounded in her ears.
"Now, put the child's hand back."
The fisherwoman's movements froze for a moment, and then she said, "I'll do it right away," and quickly stuffed the child's hand back into her stomach.
As she watched the childbirth process begin to return to normal, her heart finally retreated from her throat into her stomach.
"What's next?"
Hearing this, Chen Yin extinguished her lighter. "From what I heard from you just now, do you know how to turn the fetus around? If so, after we use medication and acupuncture to revive the mother, we'll need you to help turn the fetus head downwards and deliver it as quickly as possible."
"Yes, yes, yes!" the fisherman's wife answered excitedly.
"You know, I've delivered babies all over the town. I can even correct a baby's abnormal position, but only before the birth. Families who cherish their daughters-in-law will ask me to check the baby's position two days in advance."
After saying that, she looked at the frail Liu Baiyun on the bed with some embarrassment. Worried that Chen Yin would mistakenly think she was exaggerating, she quickly added:
"But only if the baby is born at full term, and I must be notified promptly. Doctor Chen, you are aware of today's situation..."
When Chen Yin was treating Wu Jianwei, she overheard this and nodded to the fisherman's wife.
When the fisherwoman saw the nod, she almost jumped up with excitement.
But when she saw the situation at the scene, she pulled the corners of her mouth awkwardly and continued to focus her gaze on the dying Liu Baiyun.
After a while, Grandma Wu appeared with the prepared soup for the next day.
Chen Yin immediately instructed the two, "I'll use acupuncture to wake the mother later. Auntie, you feed the medicine as soon as possible. Grandma Yu will help the baby turn as soon as the mother finishes drinking the medicine. We must move quickly, otherwise it will be very dangerous for both of us."
"Understood." The two replied in unison.
Chen Yin took out the silver needle and inserted it into the acupoint of Shuigouxue.
As the penetration became deeper and deeper, Liu Baiyun's eyelashes began to tremble slightly.
The moment Chen Yin stopped, Liu Baiyun slowly opened her eyes, but was unable to do anything else.
Her pupils gradually shrank as she could see the three people beside the bed.
Due to long-term weakness and pain, her body perception has reached a numb level.
When she felt the faint pain coming from below, a look of horror immediately appeared on her face, and she asked breathlessly:
"Mom, the baby wasn't born?"
Grandma Wu knew that this was not the time to say this, so she slowly approached her daughter-in-law and explained:
"This is something Yinyin made specially for you to replenish your energy and blood. As long as you drink it, you and Jianwei can watch the child grow up together."
Hearing this, Liu Baiyun thought the baby had been born and tried to open her mouth.
Grandma Wu couldn't bear to see her daughter-in-law's weak appearance. Thinking of Chen Yin's words, she used her hand to help Liu Baiyun open her mouth and poured the soup in her hand directly into her mouth.
Just when she thought she could retire successfully, Chen Yin's voice rang out.
"Please, Auntie, go and make another bowl. I'll need it later."
At this time, the fisherman's wife had already taken action. She saw the right moment and placed her hands directly on the woman's belly.
Liu Baiyun felt the touch on her stomach, slowly raised her head, and saw the bulging belly. Most of the accumulated anger was immediately relieved.
When Chen Yin saw it, she immediately understood the fear and regret of the woman in labor.
The dream experience involuntarily emerged in his mind, and he directly rebuked Liu Baiyun for wanting to retreat.
"You want to die alone, but have you ever thought about how Brother Jianwei, who has a broken leg, is going to feed a frail child?"
"A child born without a mother, do you know what the other children in the village will say about her?"
"I think you are a selfish person, not as upright as you just shouted!"
"The needle has been inserted, and the soup has been drunk the next day. You are now fully capable of giving birth to the child. But how you want to do it is entirely up to you."
The fisherman's wife didn't understand why Chen Yin suddenly got angry. She held Liu Baiyun's belly tightly with both hands and tried to persuade her gently.
"What Doctor Chen said is true, but it makes sense. Bai Yun, please don't let our efforts go to waste. Doctor Chen gave you all the ginseng he brought. Do you feel your strength returning? Hurry and give birth to the baby."
Liu Baiyun looked at Chen Yin in disbelief, clutched the mattress beneath her with both hands, and clenched her teeth.
"I don't want my child to bear the reputation of being a relative of mine!"
"ah--"
With a roar, the little person appeared in the fisherman's hands.
Due to prolonged lack of oxygen, the child's face was cyanotic and obviously not in good condition.
The fisherwoman couldn't believe that the child she had given birth to with great difficulty was dead. She held the child's body tightly with one hand and slapped the child's buttocks with the other hand, urging him non-stop:
"Child! Cry! Cry!"
For a moment, the fisherwoman almost cried.
Chen Yin quickly pulled out silver needles from her bag, and saw a few needles dropped, and the child with a blocked voice let out a weak cry.
“Woo woo woo!”
The fisherwoman burst into tears of joy, "It's all right if you cry, it's all right if you cry."
Then, she looked at Liu Baiyun on the bed, walked quickly forward, and said happily, "Look at the child, he is so cute."
Liu Baiyun looked at the little person lying beside her with a smile on her face, and kept blinking at Chen Yin and the fisherman's wife.
After Chen Yin confirmed that Liu Baiyun had seen the child, she took out the silver needle from the child.
Then he used needles on Liu Baiyun again to help her recover as soon as possible.
The fisherman's wife took care of the child in her arms, wrapped him in a prepared small quilt, and took him out to let the relatives who had been waiting for a long time to see him.
Due to excessive loss of qi and blood, Liu Baiyun gradually fell asleep after drinking the second bowl of Zhuan Tian Soup.
Chen Yin walked out of the room and handed the two prescriptions to the Wu family.
"There are two prescriptions here. One is a modified version of Huangqi Guizhi Wuwu Tang for women who have just given birth, to replenish qi and blood. The other is a modified version of Bushen Dihuang Wan for infants, to invigorate qi and warm yang, and to regulate the spleen and kidneys."
"The instructions for use are already written on the prescription. Prepare the medicine as quickly as possible and wait for the woman to wake up before drinking it."
“Hey hey hey!”
Old Man Wu took the prescription excitedly, his lips trembling up and down, and for a moment he didn't know how to express his gratitude to Chen Yin.
Without waiting for the other party to speak, Chen Yin blinked and raised her hand to look at her mother on the side.
"I'm a little hungry and tired. Let's go back to grandma's house first."
Wu Dongmei looked at her daughter, whose lips were pale and even peeling from dryness, and said distressedly, "Mom will help you carry your things and go with you."
After saying that, she walked out holding the medicine box in one hand and supporting Chen Yin with the other.
Wu Jianguo and his family really wanted to keep Chen Yin. It would be great if she could rest at home without having to walk any further.
But thinking about the mess in the house and the smell of blood everywhere, it was not easy to keep anyone there.
When Chen Yin reached the gate of the yard, she turned around and said, "The herbs are all at my grandmother's house. When you go to get the herbs, just ask someone at home for help."
"Doctor Chen, please go and rest first. We don't need to trouble you with these matters."
After returning to her grandmother's house, Chen Yin first ate a large bowl of pea noodles, and then quickly lay down in her mother's former room and fell into a deep sleep.
Like her were Wu Dongmei and Wu Qiufeng. The three of them were exhausted after working for most of the day.
When Chen Yin woke up from her sleep, it was already dark and it was probably around seven in the evening.
She sat up and was surprised to find that there was no one beside her. She didn't know when her mother had gotten up, but she didn't even notice.
“Squeak—”
As soon as Chen Yin opened the door, she was immediately locked into by more than a dozen pairs of eyes in the yard.
Wu Dongmei looked at her daughter fondly, "Yinyin, you're awake. The meal is ready, come and eat."
Chen Yin scratched her face with an expression of displeasure and looked towards the elderly people at home. "Grandpa and grandma, I got up late and delayed your dinner."
"No way! We usually eat at this time too, come quickly! Grandma made your favorite cured pork ribs hot pot, let's have a lively meal today."
How could the grandmother allow her granddaughter to say such things? She greeted her warmly.
Chen Yin couldn't help but smile, and she quickly walked forward and sat down in the empty seat reserved for everyone.
Even in the scorching summer, it cannot stop Dongyu people from enjoying hotpot.
When they sat at the dinner table, the family didn't talk about anything else and just focused on the hot pot in front of them.
After the meal, Chen Yin felt sweaty and refreshed all over.
After dinner, the family sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air, with watermelons grown by their own family at hand.
Wu Qiufeng opened the watermelon in his hand and introduced it enthusiastically:
"The watermelons we grew this year are very good. Each one is very sweet. Yinyin, come and try some."
Chen Yin looked at the watermelon, which was bigger than her face. The red flesh contained sweet juice. She took a big bite decisively. The crisp sound was transmitted from her teeth to her brain.
In addition, the watermelon is rinsed with well water, which makes it cool and refreshing. One bite will make you feel as happy as a god.
"Uncle, the watermelon is very sweet!" Chen Yin took a bite of the watermelon and immediately gave a high evaluation.
Hearing this, Wu Qiufeng smiled so hard that his eyes were invisible, and continued to distribute watermelons to others.
When the sky was replaced by a crescent moon, everyone began to talk about what happened to Old Man Wu's family today.
Grandma touched the back of Chen Yin's head with heartache, "Yin Yin is really exhausted today. She walked on the mountain road for two hours without a break or even a sip of water, and then she started treating a broken leg and delivering a baby. She needs to get a good rest tonight."
"I was scared when Sister Yinyin went home with my aunt." Wu Mingfeng added.
Wu Qingluan also nodded, and there was worry in her eyes as she looked at Chen Yin.
Chen Yin couldn't bear to see everyone worrying any longer, so she put on a lively smile.
"It was just that I suddenly exerted too much energy. After a good sleep, I have fully recovered. What's more, there are delicious meals prepared by grandma. Now I have more food and can see patients when they come."
"Silly girl." Wu Dongmei slapped her daughter angrily.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they saw this scene.
After the laughter, Wu Qiufeng and the others were no longer worried about Chen Yin's health, but began to worry about today's medical fees.
After all, the financial situation of Old Man Wu's family is really poor.
If Wu Jianwei was not worried about having no money after the child was born, how could he have braved the rain to go up the mountain to check on the land? The land was planted with sesame, one of the few crops that made money for their family.
The sesame seeds were about to ripen, and a sudden heavy rain affected the harvest, and the water had to be drained as soon as possible. The accident happened at this time.
Regardless of whether they understand medicine or not, Wu Qiufeng and others know that the consultation fee is not low.
In addition, Jianwei's wife also used ginseng, a very expensive Chinese medicinal herb, when giving birth.
I guess it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this treatment would cost me everything I had.
Listening to her uncle's words, Chen Yin once again realized how profound the words of her ancestor were: the greatest disease is poverty④.
If Wu Jianwei's family wasn't poor, how could they not take him to the hospital in the rain?
Why did Liu Baiyun choose to give birth in such a simple environment?
All of this is too heavy and huge, and Chen Yin cannot change it alone. She can only do her best to diagnose everyone for free.
"Uncle, I told you when I came here that I'm back in the village to provide free medical treatment to everyone, so I won't charge any consultation fees. However, I still have to charge the cost price for the medicinal materials, otherwise the operation of the clinic will become a problem."
As soon as these words were spoken, a huge wave of emotion instantly arose in everyone's hearts.
"Free clinic?"
"No charge?"
"But Wu Jianwei is different. I was asked to come and invite you here specially." Wu Qiufeng said in disbelief.
Chen Yin smiled slightly, obviously not taking it to heart.
"I just happened to be back in the village for a free clinic. Brother Jianwei and Sister Baiyun just happened to be the first two patients I met. If I took the money and started a free clinic in the village tomorrow, who would still believe me?"
"Pa!" Wu Dongmei slapped her thigh. "Just do as Yinyin said. If you only take money from one person, how will the villagers view my Yinyin?"
"Besides, when Nan He was here, he treated patients in the same way. Yin Yin is just inheriting her father's legacy."
When the elders heard Chen Nanhe's name, they all felt a little strange.
Grandma Wu glanced at her carefree daughter and made the final decision.
"Just do as Yinyin and Dongmei say, and don't let anyone look down on you."
"Okay." Everyone nodded in unison.
At the same time, everyone heard from Chen Yin's words that she would start the free clinic tomorrow, and they all started to make arrangements enthusiastically.
"If you're doing free clinics, you can just sit in your yard. You can rest under a tree and eat and drink without any delay."
"I think it's a good idea. I can just move the tables and chairs from Mingfeng's room and use them."
As the person involved, Wu Mingfeng had no objection to her mother's arrangement, but she also expressed some of her own small doubts.
"But I see that the medicine Sister Yinyin brought back doesn't seem to be much left. How can I get a prescription for the consultation?"
Wu Qiufeng and others who had experienced that period smiled at each other and simply treated him as a riddler.
Wu Mingfeng didn't understand why everyone had this expression, and became more and more confused.
Chen Yin couldn't bear to see everyone keeping the secret, so she directly revealed the secret.
"Mingfeng, that's a very good question. I didn't bring many herbs back to the village. First, the three of us have limited strength, and climbing the mountain in the rain meant we couldn't bring much. Second, there are actually many Chinese medicinal herbs that we can find everywhere in our daily lives."
Before she finished speaking, a plantain was pulled out from the tree roots under Chen Yin's feet.
"Mingfeng, what do you usually call it?"
Although Wu Mingfeng didn't understand what Chen Yin meant, she still replied seriously, "It's the wheel vegetable. The one you picked, Sister Yin Yin, is a little old and not very tasty."
"But in traditional Chinese medicine, it's called plantain, and it has the effects of clearing heat, promoting urination, cooling the blood, and detoxifying. It can treat urinary problems, summer-heat and dampness-induced diarrhea, and other conditions."
As Chen Yin finished speaking, Wu Mingfeng's eyes were filled with shock.
She really didn't expect that the ordinary-looking wheel vegetable could actually cure people.
At this moment, she was not only shocked by Chen Yin's profound knowledge, but also by the profoundness of traditional Chinese medicine.
Wu Qingluan, who was standing aside, looked at Chen Yin with eyes full of longing and admiration.
In her eyes, cousin Yin Yin exudes charming charm when talking about traditional Chinese medicine.
Wu Qiufeng looked at his daughter and niece with a smug look on his face. "Now you two should understand how we poor people survived in ancient times, right?"
The two nodded heavily, their eyes still fixed on Chen Yin.
Seeing that the two were so curious about traditional Chinese medicine, Chen Yin continued to introduce some common Chinese medicinal materials and related stories.
Under the night sky, the clear voice of a girl accompanied by the croaking of frogs lulls people to sleep.
The next day, Wu Qiufeng and his family started working early in the morning.
Some people were responsible for cleaning the yard and moving out the tables and chairs that had been agreed upon yesterday; some went out to inform the villagers that Chen Yin had decided to provide free medical treatment at home; and some were still asleep.
Because Wu Mingfeng and Wu Qingluan were too passionate last night, Chen Yin went to sleep with them on the second floor.
In order to satisfy their curiosity, they talked until almost midnight, and in the morning they didn't hear the sound of others getting up.
When the three of them got up, their family had already prepared everything.
After eating the brown sugar and fermented rice dumplings specially prepared by her grandmother, Chen Yin sat upright on a stool, ready to start the first day of the free clinic.
But what she didn't expect was that the first person to arrive was Old Man Wu.
Tears welled up in his eyes as he held a stack of banknotes tightly in his hands. The yellowed marks on the stack told how long it had been in Old Man Wu's hands.
"Yinyin, I know you're a good person, just like your father. My family feels bad for you and can't afford the medical expenses. This is the money we scraped together. Please count it and see if it's enough for the medicine."
Last night, Chen Yin had calculated the cost of the medicine based on the prescription.
She took the stack of banknotes and when she counted the money, she found that there were not only various amounts of money, but also previously used tickets.
The sadness in my heart grew deeper and deeper, and the movements of my hands became slower and slower.
But Chen Yin knew that she had to do this.
After counting all the money, she found that she still owed one hundred yuan for the medicine, mainly due to the high prices of ginseng and the medicinal materials used in Ma Fei San.
When Old Man Wu heard that there was still a hundred dollars short, he was completely at a loss and panicked.
I was already thinking about what I could sell at home to pay back Chen Yin for the life-saving money.
Chen Yin stuffed all the banknotes into the drawer, looked at Old Man Wu, and suggested:
"Since your family still owes me one hundred yuan, I'll write you an IOU now and pay you back with work. Later, when your family goes to town, you can bring vegetables and firewood to my clinic to pay off the debt."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was shocked.
Because of Chen Yin's generous words last night, Wu Mingfeng and Wu Qingluan thought that Chen Yin would directly forgive the debt because of Jianwei's family's poverty. The current behavior is obviously beyond their expectations.
But after thinking about it carefully for a while, Wu Qingluan had to admit that Sister Yinyin's approach was very wise.
After all, you should never use your conscience to guess other people's bottom line. What's more, many people will come later. What if someone takes this opportunity to make excessive demands, how can Sister Yinyin refuse?
Old Man Wu was only moved by Chen Yin's kindness. He bowed repeatedly and signed his name on the IOU.
After settling the debt issue, the other people watching outside the yard looked at each other and stepped into the yard.
Thinking of the good news from Old Man Wu's home and their purpose for today, everyone started praising Chen Yin before they even lined up.
"Yinyin is just a cute girl, no wonder she has such good medical skills."
"I think it's good genetics. Doctor Chen's medical skills were also very good in the past."
"He's so talented at such a young age, he's bound to achieve great things in the future. I never thought a golden phoenix would emerge from our Qingshan Village!"
…
Wu Dongmei felt very proud when she heard the villagers praising her, and a smile appeared on her face.
But she listened for a long time, looking at the crowd who were blaming each other with confusion.
I thought: These people are quite docile, but aren't they here to see a doctor? Why are they all still standing there?
She looked up at the sun, a hint of dissatisfaction hidden in her smiling face, and asked the crowd:
"Aren't you here to see a doctor? Hurry up and get in line. Time is limited. My daughter needs a two and a half hour break at noon to avoid the scorching sun."
As soon as these words were spoken, many people in the crowd looked at each other and tacitly pushed the most talkative fat aunt in the village out.
The fat aunt glared at the person who pushed her, then looked at Wu Dongmei and Chen Yin with a smile.
"Hehe! Actually, we just want to ask, are you really not charging any money? Just now..."
As she spoke, she pointed in the direction where Old Man Wu disappeared.
Hearing this, Wu Dongmei's smile faded. "Of course! My Yinyin said it was a free clinic, so it's free. But Old Man Wu and his family are charging for the medicine. Yesterday, I gave Jianwei's wife a lot of ginseng. If we don't charge, my family will be left with nothing."
When they heard the word "ginseng", the crowd suddenly became agitated.
Even those who are not familiar with Chinese medicine have heard of the reputation of ginseng.
When they thought that Liu Baiyun had actually eaten the legendary elixir that could "revive the dead and turn flesh into bones", they rushed towards Chen Yin excitedly, hoping that they could also take advantage of it.
As for what Wu Dongmei had just explained, it was completely ignored by everyone.
Chen Yin raised her eyes to look at the slightly fat aunt in front of her, who was the one who had just stood up and spoken.
The fat aunt plopped down at the table and smirked at the crowded group behind her, "Hahaha! Thank you all for helping me."
If she hadn't been recommended by everyone just now, how could she have gotten the first place?
After feeling proud, she turned around and looked back at Chen Yin's childish face, and smiled embarrassedly.
Chen Yin smiled slightly, obviously not taking their playfulness to heart.
"Auntie, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
As soon as the question was asked, the fat aunt was immediately stumped.
You know, the fact that she can eat as well as she does now in the poor Qingshan Village proves that her family lives a very good life, there is nothing to worry about, and her body is not in any pain.
A happy heart and a fat body are just like this.
The fat aunt pondered for a while and couldn't help but smile sweetly, "It seems that there is nothing wrong with me. I am very happy every day."
When the people in the queue behind heard this, they looked at the fat aunt's body which was almost as wide as two stools and laughed.
"Hahaha!"
"Yinyin, your Fatty Aunt is the best daughter-in-law in our village. She just needs to take care of the housework every day. How can she be too tired?"
The fat aunt was obviously very proud of this.
But when the fat aunt stood up, Chen Yin had already observed that she was too fat, had acne on her cheeks, and even had black skin growing on the back of her neck.
Just when the fat aunt thought she was fine and was about to get up, Chen Yin suddenly spoke.
"Could you please stick out your tongue and see?"
"Why?" Although the fat aunt didn't understand, she still stuck out her tongue obediently.
"Thick and greasy tongue coating."
Hearing these four words, the fat aunt immediately had a bad guess in her heart. Just as she was about to ask a question, Chen Yin spoke first.
"Auntie, please put your hand on the pulse pillow."
Facing Chen Yin's indifferent expression, the fat aunt felt goosebumps all over her body. She put her hand on him with trembling body and asked nervously:
"Yinyin, is Auntie seriously ill?"
"Gudong——" A nervous sound of swallowing saliva was heard among the fat aunt and the people queuing behind her.
Chen Yin really looked a little scary at this moment.
Chen Yin did not answer directly, but said: "Please wait a moment, Auntie. I am not very skilled, and I need to concentrate when taking a pulse."
As time passed, Aunt Pang's heart gradually fell to the bottom as the two hands exchanged.
The officials who accompanied Fu Rui on his inspection of Tongxi Town were as nervous as she was.
Originally, everyone was a little confused as to why County Mayor Fu put Tongxi Town at the top of the list during this inspection.
You have to know that their Tongxi Town is not well-known in the entire Hechuan County's economy, let alone others.
The only good thing about it is that it is relatively close to the county town.
A group of people walked nervously on the streets that had been hit by heavy rain. Due to the heavy rain for several days, the streets that had just cleared up after the rain looked wet and messy.
As the head of Tongxi Town, Yu Cheng couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead again and again.
He thought: I had the town's only main road cleaned yesterday, how come these people still kept it so dirty?
Yu Cheng couldn't help cursing in his heart when he thought about how he had left such a bad impression on the new county magistrate.
He tried hard to put a smile on his face and explained, "Sorry, County Magistrate Fu, the roads are slippery due to the rain, and we haven't had time to clean them yet."
"That's understandable. Let's move on and see how the situation develops."
Fu Rui took a look at the general environment of the street. The town center of Tongxi Town was almost built in a valley between two mountains, and there was a risk of landslides and mudslides.
She is more concerned about the solidity of the mountain than the hygiene under her feet.
Just as she continued walking forward, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a closed shop on the street. The words "Hui Min Tang" were clearly written on the plaque.
Fu Rui immediately thought of the clinic his sister-in-law suggested he go to for treatment, which should be here.
It’s just that the sudden drop in temperature caused by the recent heavy rain has led to an influenza outbreak throughout the county. As a clinic, you should be open to treat patients. Why are you closing it?
Yu Cheng followed the county magistrate's gaze and also noticed something strange about Huimin Hall.
When he heard from his subordinates that a new "hospital" had opened in the town, he was obviously a little happy.
After all, the economy, medical care, education, etc. can all be considered his political achievements. Although Huimin Hall is small, every little bit counts, and he doesn't mind it.
Moreover, Yu Cheng reminded his subordinates yesterday that they must bring pictures of the vibrant life in Tongxi Town after the disaster to the new county magistrate who was inspecting. How can this be reflected if the town is closed?
He immediately directed his dissatisfaction towards Liu Wenchong, who was in charge of hospital-related work.
"Chief Liu, tell me, why is this clinic closed? There's a flu outbreak in town. Could someone have deserted?"
Liu Wenchong, who was pointed out, felt that he was very innocent. The clinic was a private one and he had no control over whether it was open or not.
Moreover, the management of this type of clinic is under the responsibility of the county's Health and Family Planning Commission.
Just as he was sweating profusely and thinking about how to answer, Li Chunli heard a voice coming from the door of the clinic. Just as she was about to step out of the door to explain, she saw a group of people who looked unusual standing on the street.
Everyone in the group was wearing white shirts, black pants, and leather shoes, looking like characters on TV.
Li Chunli never expected that her best friend and her daughter would be greeted by two groups of unusual people just after they returned to the village because of rumors.
She was just about to pull her foot back to avoid any trouble.
Liu Wenchong noticed Li Chunli's figure and immediately shouted at the top of his voice, "Boss, why is this clinic closed? The flu is so bad in town, shouldn't it be open for business?"
In an instant, dozens of sharp gazes shot towards Li Chunli.
Now she couldn't escape even if she wanted to.
Helplessly, Li Chunli had to tell everyone that Chen Yin and the other person had returned to the village overnight for treatment. She also mixed in some personal opinions and mentioned the rumors in the town after the tuberculosis was diagnosed.
Liu Wenchong just felt fortunate for Chen Yin's righteousness, but the next second he was frightened by Li Chunli.
He was about to stammer and offer some explanation, but Fu Rui's questioning from the depths of his soul shattered all his fantasies.
"It seems that the dissemination of scientific medical knowledge in our county is still flawed. Even the mention of curable tuberculosis scares residents. Our county still has a long way to go in this area."
Fu Rui was sighing in his heart: Chen Yin was able to practice medicine on her own at such a young age, and she diagnosed tuberculosis during the flu. It was just as his sister-in-law said, there was something about her.
This long sigh almost scared Yu Cheng and Liu Wenchong away from their lives.
As soon as the inspection was over, the two men gathered the relevant personnel together. Yang Guangzu, as the person in charge of the town health center, was naturally among them.
When they heard that the parents of the diagnosed child were threatening the doctor in the clinic, everyone silently listed Yang Shulin's family as the key focus, and made sure that they were cured of tuberculosis, so as to use it as a case study for tuberculosis publicity and set the record straight.
At this time, Yang Shulin's family of three, who were cared about by everyone, had arrived at the gate of the Affiliated Hospital of Dongyu Medical University.
