Chapter 52 Guilty and Timid Mission
“Okay, okay!”
When Huang Xuan heard the good news, she cheered excitedly and turned around to carefully pick up her son who was lying on the bed.
"Xiaobao, Mommy will take you to see a doctor." Her tone was so soft and gentle that people unconsciously lowered their voices.
The boss looked at the child in the customer's arms curiously, wanting to know what illness the customer came to see Chen Yin for treatment.
When I looked up, I saw the same situation as when the guest checked in. The child had buried his head tightly in his mother's arms, leaving no room for outsiders to observe.
Qi Wenzhong was well prepared for the current situation. When he saw the mother and son before, they looked just like him.
He took a step forward and took the bag from Huang Xuan's hand, which had marks from being strangled by the heavy rope.
"Comrade Huang, I'll hold it for you. You just hold the child."
Huang Xuan took a look at her current appearance and gave Qi Wenzhong a grateful look. "Thank you, Doctor Qi."
The two nodded to the boss and quickly went downstairs towards the clinic.
Liu Mengxi stood at the door to greet the two people, extending his hand towards the clinic.
"Ms. Huang, Doctor Chen is inside. Please take your child in."
"Thank you, Doctor Liu."
Huang Xuan was so moved that she didn't know how to express her gratitude. Since coming to Tongxi Town, she has received more help than she expected.
She nodded repeatedly to Liu Mengxi with gratitude and walked quickly towards the clinic.
As soon as she entered the door, her eyes were involuntarily locked on Chen Yin.
Although she learned from Shen Tan and his wife that Chen Yin was very young when she asked them for information, the young girl who appeared in front of her once again exceeded her expectations.
At this moment, perhaps because he had maintained the same posture for too long, the child couldn't help but let out an uncomfortable whimper.
"Hmm~"
"Xiaobao, what's wrong with you?" Huang Xuan didn't even bother to observe Chen Yin, and looked at the child in her arms worriedly.
Chen Yin quickly moved from the opposite side to the mother and child, carefully observing the child's condition.
The child raised his head from his arms uncomfortably. It was obvious that the child was pale, his lips were bloodless, his eyes were blue, his face was thin, and his breath was weak.
You can vaguely see the child's chest slightly rising and falling, which shows that his breathing rate is slow.
Li Shu raised his head and saw a strange sister (Chen Yin), and immediately buried his head again, even his body trembling slightly.
Seeing this, Chen Yin frowned and became suspicious about the patient's condition.
Huang Xuan subconsciously looked in the direction of the frightened child and saw that it was Doctor Chen. She immediately let down her guard and said worriedly:
"Doctor Chen, you've seen it too. Our little treasure is like this. He's afraid of seeing people. Whenever he sees a stranger approaching, he can't help but tremble and his heartbeat speeds up."
When she said this, her voice choked and she was speechless for a while.
After Huang Xuan vented her sadness, she sniffed, collected herself, and looked at Chen Yin embarrassedly and said:
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Doctor Chen. I wanted you to see if there's any treatment for my little treasure."
She slowly stretched out the child in her arms, wanting Chen Yin to see it clearly.
But Li Shu couldn't stand the feeling of losing his safe space, and tried hard to hide his body more tightly.
For a moment, Huang Xuan didn't know whether to hold the child tightly or stretch him out for the doctor to take a closer look.
Chen Yin saw that the child was seriously worried and comforted him:
"Don't be nervous, comrade. Take good care of the child first. Once he's calm, we can start the consultation. Otherwise, the child's nervousness will affect our judgment of the cause of the illness."
Since the doctor said so, Huang Xuan naturally took good care of the child in her arms first.
An hour passed in the time it took to comfort him.
Fortunately, no one else came to see the doctor during that time, so Chen Yin and the other two stayed in the clinic with Huang Xuan and her son.
In the end, Liu Mengxi had to use her magic trick to coax children - a lollipop - to start the consultation.
Immediately afterwards, a magical scene appeared in front of Huang Xuan. The three doctors took out paper and pen in the same way.
Chen Yin looked up at Huang Xuan in front of her and asked for detailed information.
"Comrade, please tell me the child's name and age."
"My son's name is Li Shu, and he's five years old."
"Then what's wrong with him?"
"He has heart problems, often has nightmares, can't sleep, and wakes up complaining of chest pain. We went to the hospital for many tests, and they said there's nothing serious wrong with his heart. But he's still feeling unwell, so we still want to see a doctor."
As she spoke, Huang Xuan took out the medical records and various examination lists that Qi Wenzhong had helped her bring.
"Doctor Chen, take a look. These are our Xiaobao's medical records from the hospital over the past year. Just look at the information above and you'll understand."
Chen Yin took the examination form, glanced at it casually, and continued to focus her attention on the patient.
“When did your child first experience a nightmare or insomnia?”
Huang Xuan rolled her eyes upwards, trying to recall the date when the child first began to feel unwell. She replied, "When he was three years old."
"Was the child suddenly awakened from a dream, or did something happen that day?" Chen Yin continued to ask.
Hearing this, Huang Xuan seemed to suddenly think of something, and subconsciously moved her upper body closer to the table, lowering her voice and saying:
"That day, my mother-in-law, who was helping to look after the child, said she saw someone jump from a building. We all suspected the child had seen something he shouldn't have seen and was struck by something dirty. We took the child to see a famous fortune teller to perform a ritual, but to no avail."
Due to the severe crackdown in previous years, Huang Xuan still dared not speak out about such things for fear of causing trouble.
"Is it right in front of the child? Or is it several dozen meters away?"
"It seems to be nearly a hundred meters. Isn't it said that children's eyes are brighter and clearer? They should be able to see clearly."
After these words were spoken, not only Chen Yin, but even Liu Mengxi and Qi Wenzhong did not believe that the three-year-old child was frightened by the person who jumped off the building.
"Besides jumping off the building, is there anything else?"
Huang Xuan didn't expect that Chen Yin didn't believe the reason she gave, and she couldn't help but rack her brains to recall what happened that day.
"The child was playing with other children in the community that day. His grandmother was watching and chatting with others to relieve her boredom. When we returned in the evening, we learned that someone had jumped from the building opposite. The child couldn't sleep that night after that."
"Did the child talk in his sleep?"
"Ghost!" Huang Xuan suddenly shouted loudly.
“Wow wow wow wow—”
The sound of the child crying out of fear immediately exploded in the clinic. Huang Xuan held the child in her arms and comforted him with heartache. She felt sorry in her heart because she was the one who scared the child.
Only after the crying gradually subsided did Chen Yin continue to examine the patient.
"I saw in the child's medical record that he was born prematurely. Does that mean he is not able to withstand shocks normally?"
"Yes, yes, yes! Our child is timid and would be frightened even if he sneezed. That's why we never took him out to play before he was one year old. It was only when he was three that he got to know other children in the neighborhood and started playing with them. And..."
Huang Xuan seemed to have opened up after being prompted by Chen Yin, and she kept giving evidence to prove that the child was timid.
All this confirmed Chen Yin's guess. After Huang Xuan finished speaking, she began to diagnose her tongue.
"Come on, help the child stick out his tongue."
After some difficult comforting, Chen Yin saw the condition of the child's tongue, which was covered with a thin white coating.
After taking his pulse, it was confirmed that his pulse was weak and irregular, which confirmed the other symptoms he had previously manifested.
After writing down all the judgments, Chen Yin told Huang Xuan the cause of the disease she had judged with an expectant look on her face.
"The child was born without proper nourishment, and is timid and easily frightened. Two years ago, he must have been frightened by something, causing his internal qi to become disordered, his mind to become restless, and he suffers from insomnia and frequent dreams."
"So you need to calm your child down and soothe his nerves. I'll prescribe Anshen Dingzhi Pills for you first. Please come back for a follow-up consultation after taking them."
"good!"
Huang Xuan didn't expect the result to come out so quickly. Her brain was still a little slow to react, and she answered Chen Yin subconsciously.
When she regained consciousness, Qi Wenzhong had already taken her to the medicine cabinet.
She hugged the child tightly in her arms, looked at Qi Wenzhong with an apologetic face, and said somewhat at a loss:
"Doctor Qi, should I thank Doctor Chen in person? I was so surprised by the good news he announced that I forgot."
"No need, Comrade Huang, it will be the same next time you come, and Doctor Chen doesn't care about these things."
As he spoke, Qi Wenzhong took out the herbs required according to the prescription, processed them, and made them into pills in front of Huang Xuan.
"Comrade Huang, you must remember to give the medicine according to the doctor's instructions. Don't let your child take it by mistake."
"I know, I know."
Huang Xuan nodded repeatedly and walked towards the hotel with the medicine and the child.
After she left and the clinic closed, today's consultation was officially over.
The three of them returned to the backyard and started eating.
After the meal, the three of them discussed the cause of Li Shu's illness.
Every day, whenever Liu Mengxi and Qi Wenzhong encountered something they didn't understand, they would take the opportunity to ask Chen Yin for advice.
Liu Mengxi spoke first. After all, she was Li Shu's first doctor.
"Yinyin, Comrade Huang brought the child here at noon. I examined him for a while and found that Li Shu was sleepy and dreamy, with a rapid pulse and irregular rises and falls. I concluded that Li Shu's heart palpitations were probably due to deficiency syndrome, but further analysis was less accurate."
"My impression is that a condition like his could be due to insufficient heart yin, or perhaps timidity, or even a liver problem. How do you judge this?"
Chen Yin first nodded to confirm Liu Mengxi's judgment, and then spoke to explain it clearly.
"The symptoms you described are indeed somewhat similar to those of heart yin deficiency, but the patient hasn't experienced night sweats or other symptoms. You should observe the child more closely. It's obvious that the child is restless and even has trouble looking people in the eye. Coupled with frequent dreams, this indicates a weak heart and gallbladder. This all proves that the patient is timid and cowardly."
After answering the first question, Chen Yin added:
"As for the liver problem you mentioned, we know that the liver governs the flow of qi and blood, and the heart governs consciousness. The two are closely related. Once either is abnormal, palpitations will indeed occur."
"But when we took the pulse, we were able to determine that the main cause of this incident was the heart."
"The liver is the mother organ of the heart, so heart disease has an impact on it. When treating a disease, we must identify the primary cause. Once the heart condition improves, the symptoms caused by the liver will disappear."
Liu Mengxi's confusion was resolved and he couldn't help but nod repeatedly.
Next was Qi Wenzhong, who was very curious about Chen Yin’s home visit today.
Looking at the three people's equally curious eyes, Chen Yin shook her head helplessly and told them about her experience today.
When they heard that Chen Yin had a bumpy ride to the city, the three of them shared a common hatred and complained about the road conditions together.
When he heard the Rong family's contempt for Chen Yin, he wanted to confront them face to face.
When they heard that Chen Yin received 500,000 yuan for medical treatment, the three of them couldn't help but gasp.
Because this amount was beyond the three people's expectations.
If Chen Yin was the kind of person who was easily satisfied, 500,000 yuan would allow her to live a carefree life in a small town without having to see a doctor.
But when they heard that Chen Yin declined, the three of them felt sorry but also felt that she was worthy of being Chen Yin.
Because individuals in mainland China don't like to use checks for transactions, and no one has ever seen what a personal check looks like, they are all curious and want to take a look.
Seeing this, Chen Yin had no choice but to take out her backpack and take out the check inside.
"Let's take a look. It doesn't seem like anything special."
Wu Dongmei took the check anxiously, pressed her hands tightly on the table, and squinted her eyes to try to see the check clearly.
Liu Mengxi and Qi Wenzhong also leaned over to take a look, and when they found that the check was simpler than they had imagined, they both showed disappointed expressions.
Just as Liu Mengxi was about to look away, she suddenly felt that she saw something different.
She opened her eyes wide and practically pressed her head against the check, leaving the other three completely confused.
Just when everyone was confused, Liu Mengxi suddenly pointed at the symbol in front of the amount and asked:
"Yinyin, what do you think this symbol means?"
Hearing this, Qi Wenzhong quickly moved his head closer and accidentally bumped into Liu Mengxi's head.
"oops!"
The severe pain on the top of their heads made the two of them scream out.
Qi Wenzhong knew he had made a mistake, and in panic he reached out to protect Liu Mengxi's head, wanting to see the situation clearly.
"Doctor Liu, can I see if there is any swelling?"
“No, no.”
At this moment, Liu Mengxi's voice was even more flustered than Qi Wenzhong, the person who did something wrong.
She quickly retracted her head, pretended to be calm, pressed her hand on the place where Qi Wenzhong had just touched her, and explained with her chin raised:
"It's okay, your head isn't made of iron."
"Sorry, sorry." Having said that, the person who did something wrong should still apologize.
This short clip did not interfere with the curiosity of several people about the check. Liu Mengxi's words just now had aroused Wu Dongmei's curiosity.
She tried hard to see but couldn't understand, so she could only place her hopes on the other three young people.
He glanced at Qi Wenzhong, who was closest to him, and immediately pointed at the sign in front of the amount and said:
"This should be what Mengxi is talking about. Xiaoqi, do you recognize it?"
Hearing this, Qi Wenzhong approached the check again, saw the symbol on it clearly at a glance, and shouted in shock:
"Dollar!"
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be the dollar sign. If it were converted into our national currency, the amount would be several times higher."
When Wu Dongmei heard this, her eyes widened as wide as she could, as if she wanted to engrave this symbol into her heart.
Chen Yin knew that even though she had declined repeatedly, she still received a medical fee that was higher than normal.
Thinking of Rong Qian's expression when he signed the check, she shook her head helplessly, knowing that it was impossible to return it.
On the other side, Wu Dongmei couldn't help but want to hide the check in front of her as a family heirloom when she thought that the check in front of her was the foreign exchange that the factories had been talking about in previous years.
After learning of her idea, the three of them persuaded Wu Dongmei for a long time before she gave up the idea.
It is true that the indicator of foreign exchange was deeply engraved in the hearts of all Chinese people in those years. Even though times have changed, converting foreign exchange is not a difficult problem for Chinese people today.
But when she saw it for the first time, Wu Dongmei couldn't help but think in her heart.
After saying these things, it was already nine o'clock.
Today, Chen Yin went out early and came back late. She had two serious illnesses and was exhausted both physically and mentally. After a simple wash, she fell asleep quickly.
The next day, the door of the clinic opened and it was a new day.
For Chen Yin, it was a happy day, but for others it was more than that.
Ever since Zhao Chunsheng was assigned a task by Dean Zhang yesterday, he has been unable to make up his mind to ask Chen Yin, a junior, for help.
But when he thought of Dean Zhang's tone, he couldn't sleep well that night.
After tossing and turning all night, I appeared in the hospital inpatient building with a tired body and weak eyes.
Zhao Chunsheng was lucky. As soon as he approached the ward where Mr. Rong was, he was stopped by the security guard at the door. Before he could explain, Rong Qian came out of the door.
A familiar flattering smile immediately appeared on his face. He bent down and said respectfully:
"Hello, Second Young Master Rong, I'm Zhao Chunsheng, a doctor at the hospital."
When his grandfather was first sent to this hospital, Rong Qian saw the other party attending a consultation together, so he was not a stranger.
So after Zhao Chunsheng spoke, he quickly raised one hand, signaling the security guard to take his guard hands away.
"I wonder what Dr. Zhao wants so early in the morning? My grandfather is still resting."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Chunsheng subconsciously took a big step back and said with an awkward smile:
"Rest well, rest well. I'm not here to disturb Master Rong's rest. I just want to ask, which hotel is Dr. Chen, who treated Master Rong yesterday, staying in? Our hospital has asked me to represent you, and I want to discuss something with Dr. Chen. "
He nodded as he spoke, fearing that there would be any misunderstanding with Rong Qian.
Little did he know that the moment he opened his mouth to speak, it was enough for Rong Qian to no longer take him seriously.
Director Yang’s words yesterday were still ringing in his ears. Rong Qian felt that anyone who had a conflict with Doctor Chen was disrespectful to Doctor Chen if he looked at him even a little longer.
Then, he showed the aura of the second young master of the Rong family and said coldly:
"It's not your place to ask where Doctor Chen is."
Before he finished speaking, the sound of footsteps could be heard in the corridor.
Only the security guard with an expressionless face and Zhao Chunsheng, who was scared out of his wits and sweats, were left standing there.
Zhao Chunsheng maintained this posture until his legs became weak, then he slowly walked away from the ward.
Seeing that he could not get any information from the Rong family, and the hospital watched Chen Yin leave in the Rong family's car yesterday, he could only place his hopes on other paths.
After a while, Zhao Chunsheng asked for leave from the department and came to the Health Bureau.
He habitually wanted to get close to Yu Wen so as to find out Chen Yin's home address.
Even if he didn't know where Chen Yin was recently, she would eventually come home, right? Then, he could still complete Dean Zhang's mission.
Unexpectedly, this time Yu Wen did not give him the direct answer as he wished.
"Director Zhao, as you know, some information is strictly confidential within our bureau. After all, you don't know what those people outside will do. Doctor Chen is an important figure in our bureau."
When Zhao Chunsheng heard this, he immediately realized that the guy in front of him was joking with him.
When Chen Yin reported it for the first time, the news was leaked by the person in front of her. Now she is still trying to pretend.
If it were in the past, Zhao Chunsheng would definitely use his status to teach Yu Wen a lesson.
But considering that Chen Yin's reputation has now spread among the upper echelons of Dongyu, his previous contempt for Chen Yin must not be made known to others.
Therefore, Zhao Chunsheng, who always showed a strong attitude, put on a kind smile and explained:
"Secretary Yu, it's not that I want Dr. Chen's address. It's that our hospital needs it, so they sent me here to contact him. If you can help me, it will be convenient for our hospital as well."
Feeling that he had already moved out of the mountains, Yu Wen would not dare to continue to shirk his responsibility.
Just when Zhao Chunsheng was feeling proud and proud, a gentle yet powerful voice sounded in his ears.
"Director Zhao, it's a rare visitor. Now that you're here, please come to my office and have a chat."
Zhao Chunsheng turned around following the voice and saw Sun Chuanwen, the director of their Health Bureau, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
Yu Wen respectfully addressed Sun Chuanwen and called out, “Director.”
"Bang~"
The cup lid hit the wall of the cup with a crisp sound. Sun Chuanwen stopped what he was doing, nodded slightly, and walked into the office.
Seeing this, Zhao Chunsheng wiped the sweat from the tip of his nose and followed him into the office.
Outsiders were unaware of the conversation between the two men in the office, but Zhao Chunsheng's condition when he came out of the office was described by people from the Health Bureau that day and spread throughout the building in an instant.
When he walked in, his straight back was half bent, his face was pale, and beads of sweat kept dripping down.
Therefore, Chen Yin was seeing patients in Tongxi Town with peace of mind and did not see Zhao Chunsheng appear.
Because several people stayed in the clinic for three or four days, the accumulated patients had been completely resolved.
Seeing that the clinic had returned to its previous deserted state, Liu Mengxi walked back and forth in the clinic bored. The repetitive sound of his footsteps made the cool early winter feel a little irritating.
Chen Yin mistakenly thought that the other party was bored and suggested:
"If you're bored, you can go fishing in the stream in front. My mom said a lot of people have been fishing there lately."
Upon hearing this, Liu Mengxi instantly changed his position and sat next to Chen Yin.
He rested his elbows on the table, held his head in his hands, and asked, his eyes moving around:
"Yinyin, should we go to the countryside to see patients? I remember it's been almost half a month since we last went to Xiaoli Village."
Chen Yin roughly calculated the time and it was about the same as what her friend said, except that tomorrow and the day after tomorrow were obviously not good times.
"Don't worry, Li Shu will come for a follow-up visit tomorrow, and Wen Zhong is still in school. Let's wait for him."
