Chapter 79: Rapid Results Agreement
"You don't know Dr. Chen? He's a city-renowned doctor, more important than anyone else in our hospital."
"If you are such a famous Chinese medicine doctor, why did you come to our hospital?"
"That naturally means we in Yunchuan have a natural advantage."
When these words were spoken, many people showed smug and proud expressions.
The man took a look and became more and more curious. He couldn't help but ask, "What advantages?"
"Doctor Chen is a native of Yunchuan, living in Tongxi Town down below. It just so happened that Doctor Chen's clinic was about to be rebuilt, so the hospital leaders saw the perfect opportunity and recruited him to stay with us for a while."
His tone was full of complacency, and he wished Chen Yin could stay in the hospital longer. While they were relaxing, the hospital's revenue also reached a new high.
Basically, everyone eating in the cafeteria at this time was talking about Chen Yin.
Everyone was happily discussing this in low voices, which made Liu Xianhua, who had just brought the food, very confused.
When he ate in the past, he never thought the cafeteria was so lively.
He shook his head, threw away the distracting thoughts in his mind, smiled, and said to Chen Yin:
"Doctor Chen is quite lucky today. The chef made his signature spicy chicken. I specially ordered two servings for everyone to try."
As he spoke, Liu Xianhua put the dish in his hand on the table.
In addition to the spicy chicken he mentioned, there are also scrambled eggs with tomatoes and stir-fried choy sum.
Qi Wenzhong, who was standing behind him, also placed the food in his hand. The one placed in front of Liu Mengxi was the Mapo Tofu that she loved very much.
Liu Mengxi smelled the fresh, spicy and spicy aroma, and the smile on the corner of her mouth could not be suppressed at all.
Chen Yin glanced at the food on the table. Four dishes and one soup were enough for four people.
"Let's eat."
As soon as the words fell, everyone stretched out their chopsticks towards the dishes they wanted to eat, ready to appease their restless taste buds.
Chen Yin tried the spicy chicken that Liu Xianhua highly recommended. It was dry, spicy and hot. No wonder it was so highly recommended. It was really delicious.
Liu Xianhua stopped eating halfway, hesitantly put down his chopsticks, and asked tentatively.
"Doctor Chen, while we're resting, can I ask you some questions about my medical consultation?"
"Sure. If you have any questions during your clinic stay, you can ask when you have time."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xianhua's face broke into a bright smile, and he kept nodding his head, which made people worry that his head would fall off his neck.
He had a lot of questions in his mind, and his mouth opened and closed in confusion, not knowing what to say.
After a while, he bit his chopsticks and asked:
"I just want to ask, Doctor Chen, about our last patient this morning. How did you know the injury was on his back? And it must have been hemorrhoids?"
"First of all, we in traditional Chinese medicine all follow the four basic diagnostic methods of observation, auscultation, inquiry and palpation, and we rely on and verify each other."
"What did you notice that was unusual about the patient when he walked into the room?"
The method of using questions to stimulate the questioner's thinking made Liu Xianhua, who was experiencing it for the first time, a little overwhelmed.
He tried hard to recall the scene he had just seen, and stammered:
"When the patient entered the clinic, he seemed to be deliberately holding his legs together and looked to be having difficulty moving. His face was red and had many pimples."
Liu Mengxi and Qi Wenzhong glanced at Liu Xianhua, and realizing that he had nothing to add, they immediately told him what they had seen.
"In addition, I found that the patient's lips were dark red, he swallowed his saliva frequently, and he clenched his cheeks from time to time."
"When swallowing, he would make an uncomfortable expression. He was also bloated and his gait was unsteady."
"You three all said it well." Chen Yin nodded in affirmation to what the three said.
But it is obvious that Liu Mengxi and Qi Wenzhong observed more carefully, while Liu Xianhua emphasized more on phenomena that can be seen at a glance.
"In Traditional Chinese Medicine, 'look, listen, ask, and palpate,' and 'look' comes first, which is naturally of great importance. Therefore, when we face a patient who comes for consultation, our consultation begins the moment they enter the door."
"What you three have said already indicates that the patient has heat poisoning. However, to confirm the exact cause, we can carefully examine the patient's entire body."
"If you look closely, you'll notice an unusual thickness on the patient's buttocks when he turned and closed the door. Plus, the faint smell of blood in the clinic suggests something's wrong with him. All of this suggests a high probability of fistula."
As soon as these words were spoken, the three of them quickly cast admiring glances at Chen Yin.
For Yunchuan, it was the end of winter and the beginning of spring. The weather was still cold, and it was rainy, so most people were wearing warm clothes.
For example, the patient just mentioned was wearing a fashionable down jacket. Although the jacket wasn't long, the hem still covered quite a bit of area.
If you don't look carefully, you won't notice that the patient is wearing something to prevent bleeding.
Although Liu Xianhua is also a Chinese medicine practitioner, this is the first time he has such a deep feeling about the four words "look, listen, ask, and feel" which have been passed down for thousands of years.
Due to efficiency and lack of skills, most Chinese medicine practitioners in hospitals have begun to adopt the Western medicine model in their consultations.
Basically, after asking about the patient's basic condition, the doctor will refer the patient to a Western medicine doctor for examination.
Since other doctors can do the examination, why should patients choose traditional Chinese medicine?
For a moment, Liu Xianhua felt a mixture of emotions. He suddenly wondered what he had been doing before. He had even abandoned his own identity.
After dinner, Chen Yin and her friends took a quick walk, returned to the clinic, and began preparing for the afternoon consultation.
The afternoon consultation was just as busy, but this time, Liu Xianhua took to heart the advice Chen Yin had given him during lunch: "Look." He observed each patient carefully.
No matter what the content was, he wrote it down and asked Chen Yin when she was free.
As a result, and with many patients who needed acupuncture treatment coming in the afternoon, the consultation time was extended again.
By the time the four of them left the hospital, it had already darkened outside.
Chen Yin glanced at Liu Xianhua who was following the three of them and asked with some concern:
"Xiao Liu, where do you live? Do you need us to give you a ride?"
"No, no, Doctor Chen, my home is just behind the mountain opposite the hospital. It's just a short walk away. It's not far."
As if he was worried that Chen Yin would send him away, Liu Xianhua ran away without giving anyone a chance to react.
"See you tomorrow, Doctor Chen!"
"See you tomorrow!"
As soon as Liu Xianhua's figure disappeared into the darkness, Liu Mengxi immediately raised his hands, turned around, and sighed:
"Yinyin, you know what, the difference between a county and a town is just amazing. We're in town, how could we have so many patients to see in a single day? At the end of the day, I feel like I'm going to break from sitting."
"Then you should get up and move around more often, and start practicing the Five Animal Exercises again in the morning."
Chen Yin looked at her friend helplessly, knowing that the other party was just saying it casually and didn't take it to heart.
But some people whose brains have been cut off due to certain factors don’t think so.
On the way back to the residence, Chen Yin walked in front, listening to some messy footsteps behind her.
I thought: When did the two of them have such thoughts? Why did they reveal it to me as soon as she came back from Guangzhou?
Just as she was puzzled, a hurried figure ran past her, with an unforgettable smell of disinfectant on his body.
When helping to stop bleeding in Guangzhou, Chen Yin smelled it for a long time in the operating room.
She looked up at the figure running away, confirming that the other person must have just come down from the operating table.
Chen Yin guessed correctly. The person passing by was Liu Lili’s lover, Gao Shangming, who had just come down from the operating table.
Last night he heard that his wife would bring their daughter to see Chen Yin, who had just arrived at the hospital, and he wanted to accompany his wife and daughter.
It’s a pity that he was scheduled for surgery today because there was more than one accident.
As soon as I got off the operating table, I found that it was time to get off work. It was obviously not a good idea to bother Chen Yin.
Gao Shangming could only hurry home and ask his wife what happened with his daughter's medical treatment today.
Thinking of this, he ran faster and faster. When he reached the door of his house, he was out of breath, his hands were shaking, and the key in his hand could hardly be inserted into the keyhole.
“Clatter, clatter—”
The sound of keys clashing together came from outside the door, but Liu Lili didn't pay any attention to it.
At this moment, all her thoughts were on her daughter, and she watched her daughter eat with tears in her eyes.
Just now, the mother and daughter were waiting for Gao Shangming to come home for dinner as usual, when suddenly the daughter shouted:
"Mom, I'm a little hungry. Can we eat first?"
Liu Lili never thought that she would hear such words from her daughter one day. Her mind went blank with surprise.
Just when she wanted to express her inner joy to others, she suddenly met her daughter's expectant eyes. She nodded heavily and pushed the food on the table towards her daughter.
"Eat, of course you can start eating first. Your dad is coming home late, so we won't wait for him."
So this is the scene Gao Shangming saw at the restaurant entrance after he opened the door lock.
Gao Shangming looked at his daughter eating on her own with some disbelief. The emotion of joy surged through his body, causing him to stand there blankly for a long time without moving.
"Lili, what's wrong with Qiaoqiao..."
When the third person's voice sounded, Liu Lili could no longer suppress her inner emotions. Tears welled up in her eyes and she nodded with trembling head.
"You're not mistaken, you're not mistaken."
Hearing the strange sound, Qiaoqiao raised her somewhat dim eyes and asked, "Mom, Dad, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, it's okay!"
Gao Shangming rubbed his daughter's head excitedly and comforted her, "Eat first, eat first. Mom and Dad are happy. They are very happy."
So Qiaoqiao continued with her dining quest.
Liu Lili and Gao Shangming sat together, leaning against each other, watching their daughter eat with gentle eyes.
Although Qiaoqiao said she was hungry just now, she only ate half a bowl of rice, two ribs and a few carrots.
"Mom, I'm full."
Hearing the familiar words, Liu Lili almost got nervous, worried that her daughter would return to her previous bad condition.
She sat up suddenly and looked at her daughter's condition worriedly. When she saw that she had eaten a lot more than usual, her heart gradually settled down.
"We're full. If we're full, we won't eat anymore. Go wash your hands and watch TV."
After saying that, Liu Lili suppressed her excited steps and slowly walked to her daughter. As usual, she took her daughter to wash hands and watch TV.
When her daughter was immersed in the joy brought by TV, she slowly walked to the dining table.
Gao Shangming took a look at the obviously cold dishes, picked up the dishes, and turned to walk towards the kitchen.
"I'll go heat up the food. We can talk while we eat later."
But when Gao Shangming heated up the food, the couple was in no mood to eat.
Gao Shangming was especially eager to find out the reason for his daughter's appetite recovery. He asked, "Did Qiaoqiao get better immediately after seeing Dr. Chen, the specialist?"
"That's right!" Liu Lili's eyes emitted a dazzling light.
"Really? This Doctor Chen you introduced me to is truly amazing! After taking just one dose of medicine, Qiaoqiao actually regained her appetite. I was planning to wait for you to come home and eat together, but she suddenly said she was hungry, so I immediately let her start eating first."
"That's what we should do. It's what we should do. Qiaoqiao, if you're hungry, just eat first. You don't have to wait for me."
Gao Shangming strongly agreed with this, saying that his daughter's health is more important than anything else.
At this moment, he was sincerely grateful to the county leaders for inviting Chen Yin, otherwise why would he want to let his daughter go over and take a look.
If he had known earlier, when he heard that County Magistrate Fu liked a small town doctor, he should have taken his daughter to see a doctor. His daughter might have recovered sooner and faster.
Hearing her lover's words, Liu Lili glared at him and said, "Of course."
In the eyes of the couple, nothing is more important than their daughter's body.
Liu Lili thought about her daughter taking just one dose of medicine and seeing the current effect. She couldn't help but stretch her neck, put her head in front of her lover, and asked:
"It looks like Qiaoqiao will gradually recover after taking the medicine. How should we thank Doctor Chen?"
After hearing this, Gao Shangming fell into deep thought.
Because Chen Yin was running an outpatient clinic at the county hospital, the expert outpatient fee she charged was only one dollar.
This small amount of medical fees could not express the family's gratitude to Chen Yin for curing their daughter.
Gao Shangming and Liu Lili thought about what items at home could be considered as thank-you gifts, but they always felt that they were not worthy of Chen Yin's status and medical skills.
The two thought about the food getting cold again, but nothing came of it.
Helplessly, Gao Shangming, who seemed to be closer to Chen Yin, took on the responsibility. "I'll go to the hospital tomorrow and ask someone familiar with Dr. Chen what she likes. We'll give her that. We live in the same building, so it's convenient to send things."
"Okay, I'll wait for your good news."
Liu Lili patted Gao Shangming on the shoulder, took the dish and went back to the kitchen to reheat it.
At this time, Chen Yin and the other two who had returned home knew nothing about this and were sorting out today's medical records.
As the three of them were sorting out the information, Liu Mengxi and Qi Wenzhong would occasionally ask questions about the parts they had doubts about, and Chen Yin would answer them, creating a harmonious atmosphere.
The next day, the three of them got up on time, changed into clothes that were convenient for movement, and prepared to go downstairs to exercise.
The sky was still gray, and there were basically no young people around. Only busy elderly people were downstairs.
Seeing three unfamiliar young men and women, he immediately asked curiously.
"What a young girl and boy! Why are you up so early to be the paws? I've never seen you before. Are you new to the courtyard?"
"New here." Chen Yin nodded in acknowledgement.
"I told you, I have no impression of your faces. Fewer and fewer young people are getting up early. Are you guys planning to go eat or buy groceries?"
"Like you, we are here to exercise."
As soon as Liu Mengxi finished speaking, the lady opposite immediately showed an expression of shock on her face, which soon turned into joy.
"Not many young people are willing to get up early and exercise nowadays. What are you doing?"
"Have you heard of the Five Animal Exercises?" Chen Yin took a look at the other party's attire and told them their exercise program.
"Wu Qin Xi is a traditional Chinese medicine exercise for strengthening the body. We practice Tai Chi, which is a little different from yours."
After saying that, the lady glanced at the open space in the yard, pointed to the area in front and said:
"No one usually exercises there, so you three can go there. No one will disturb you."
"Thank you, ma'am."
After selecting an area, the three of them started training immediately.
At the beginning, the other elderly people who were exercising did not take the three people seriously, but as they saw their movements becoming more and more powerful and a kind of deterrent power emanating from them, they could not help but frequently keep their eyes on Chen Yin and the other two.
The Tai Chi movements I was doing stopped naturally, which had a significant impact on my exercise this morning.
As the exercise guide for the elderly in the family compound, how could Liu Chunmei just stand by and watch?
Immediately ask everyone to stop and ask for advice.
When Chen Yin and the other two stopped and were about to go out to buy some breakfast to take home, someone suddenly came up to them.
"Hello! I'm Liu Chunmei, the organizer of the morning exercise in the family compound."
"Hello, miss." The three of them shouted in unison.
Chen Yin noticed that everyone in the area where they were supposed to be exercising had stopped and was looking at them vaguely, which made her feel puzzled.
"Auntie, is there something wrong?"
"I'm sorry to say this, but we saw you guys practicing the Five Animal Exercises this morning and thought it was good for your health. I wonder if we could practice with you?"
"sure."
Chen Yin blurted out, which immediately made Liu Chunmei very happy. Her whole body was filled with joy. She liked children like Chen Yin who acted decisively.
"Good, good! Good boy."
Chen Yin raised her hand to check the time and decided to make it short.
"The Five Animals Exercises we practice require correct posture to be beneficial to the body. It's late today, and we're in a hurry to get to work. Tomorrow, at the same time, we can practice together downstairs, okay?"
"Okay, okay! You guys go get busy with your work first, we're all fine, okay."
As soon as she turned around, Liu Chunmei immediately told others the good news.
The cheers coming from behind made the three of them frown.
After a quick wash and breakfast, the three of them headed towards the hospital as they did yesterday.
This time, Liu Xianhua was the only one waiting at the door. Chen Yin looked at him and reluctantly reminded him:
"Xiao Liu, if you come early next time, just go to the office and wait. Don't wait at the door. Don't catch a cold."
"Hey! Doctor Chen, I just got here too. I didn't have to wait long."
Liu Xianhua scratched the back of his head embarrassedly. After returning home yesterday evening, he specially brought some food and went to the home of his teacher, Liao Dehua, to thank him for his support.
Teacher Liao Dehua was very envious of Liu Xianhua's age, otherwise he would be the one studying with Chen Yin now.
It’s a pity that his age and status are not suitable, so he can only give the opportunity to his students.
The teacher told him to study hard under Chen Yin and he would definitely benefit a lot.
In this case, how could Liu Xianhua dare to slack off? He was so excited that he couldn't sleep well all night. He got up from the bed as soon as it was dawn and ran to the hospital subconsciously.
After he arrived, he stood at the door and the cold wind could not extinguish the fire in his heart.
Liu Xianhua suppressed his excitement and told Chen Yin the information he had received while waiting at the door as he walked.
"Doctor Chen, yesterday's story of your remarkable performance in the general surgery department has spread. Many doctors passing by have expressed their hope that you could help them by examining their patients and see if they can also use Traditional Chinese Medicine treatments."
"Have you told them about my practice?"
"Yes. They said we can wait until you, Doctor Chen, have a rest. Right now, the situation isn't as critical as a general surgery patient with intestinal obstruction."
"That's fine. Today's outpatient appointments will be the same as yesterday. I'll go to the clinic and prepare first. If there's a patient, just come in directly."
"I understand." Liu Xianhua replied quickly.
As the four of them walked towards the clinic, Liu Xianhua gave a hurried instruction and quickly followed.
Perhaps Chen Yin's reputation had gradually spread throughout the county yesterday, and as soon as they sat down, they welcomed the first patient of the day.
"Please take a seat and pass on the things in your hands."
"Yes, Doctor Chen."
"What's wrong with you?"
"I have a headache. I get dizzy after doing any strenuous activity. My head always feels heavy. I also feel cold on top of my head, and my whole body can't help but shiver. I always wear more clothes than other people."
Zhu Xingfeng touched his head and said with a worried look on his face.
When the patient entered the door, everyone noticed that the thickness of his clothes was far beyond that of ordinary people.
If you don't look carefully, you might think it's a ball coming in from outside the door.
"When did the headache and chills appear?" Chen Yin continued to ask.
"Just three days ago. I was in a hurry to go out, so I washed my hair with cold water. It was fine at first, but after a good night's sleep, I started to feel something was wrong with my head the next day. I felt like there was a cold wind swirling around my head, and it hurt from time to time."
Now that he thinks about it, Zhu Xingfeng is secretly resentful. Why was he in such a hurry to wash his hair with cold water?
"Looking at you, you should have taken medicine, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhu Xingfeng immediately showed an expression as if to say, "How do you know?" and nodded slightly, not daring to move for fear of feeling dizzy.
At the same time, his trust in Chen Yin reached its peak.
"Yes, I thought I had a headache, so I took some painkillers at the pharmacy. After taking the medicine, the pain was gone, but the chills didn't go away and started spreading to other parts of my body. It almost scared me to death."
As he spoke, he subconsciously wrapped his clothes tightly around him, as if he was attacked by the cold again.
