Social Death Patient 096
Jiang Pengcheng was much more preoccupied than before he came. When Bai Jiesui was taking Sister Liu's pulse and examining her, he made his presence felt.
Bai Jiesui asked Sister Liu what she wanted to see today. Before Sister Liu could speak, Jiang Pengcheng took the initiative to speak for her.
"Just show her whatever you want and tell her what you see."
Bai Jiesui ignored Jiang Pengcheng and continued to ask Sister Liu, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Although the condition was clearly normal, Sister Liu was unwilling to cooperate.
"Aren't you a Chinese medicine doctor? Can't you see for yourself?"
Sister Liu always speaks in a harsh manner, and they are here to pick a fight, so it is even more impossible for her to talk nicely to Bai Jiesui.
"If I knew what was wrong with my body, why would I spend money to come to you? I would just buy the medicine myself."
Her older sisters behind her murmured in agreement.
"But since I've come to you, I must want to see what you're capable of."
"Those guys just said you were amazing, but why are you still so unsure about treating patients?"
Several staff members were monitoring the equipment. They didn't say anything when they heard this, but they all wanted to roll their eyes at the same time.
When they had almost said all the ugly things, Jiang Pengcheng came out to smooth things over.
"Please each of you keep quiet and don't put pressure on the young girl. It's not easy for her to open a clinic at her age."
Jiang Pengcheng's words really worked, and the crowd, which was as noisy as ducks, immediately quieted down.
He even politely apologized to Bai Jiesui, saying, "They speak quite directly, so don't take it to heart. Just look at it the way you're used to. Don't be afraid if you encounter any problems; you can always ask me."
The reason why Jiang Pengcheng spoke in such a harsh tone was that, on the one hand, he felt that his qualifications were far superior to Bai Jiesui's and he could easily surpass her; on the other hand, he and Sister Liu were a family, and he knew exactly what problems Sister Liu had with her body. He said seriously that he thought he was definitely more professional than Bai Jiesui.
"It's really Brother Jiang who's so enthusiastic. It's hard to find someone as enthusiastic as Brother Jiang these days."
"Our sister Liu is so lucky to have found someone like Brother Jiang."
"Look at what you're saying. Who wouldn't envy our Sister Liu her good fortune? She doesn't have to worry about anything. Doctor Jiang takes care of everything."
This was the first time Sister Liu showed a happy smile on her face since she came in.
"Our Pengcheng is doing well. My dad used to worry that he couldn't be relied upon, but since he passed away, he's been in charge of everything at home. The family's traditional Chinese medicine clinic has also been kept going under his watch. I can't say how much money we make each month, but we can barely make ends meet and provide some convenience to our neighbors. This is our biggest wish for the two of us to persevere."
Jiang Pengcheng put his arm around her shoulders and said, "This Chinese medicine clinic is my father's hard work. Even if it doesn't make money, I will keep it running."
Sister Liu's old sisters were extremely united and began to join in the discussion. They praised Jiang Pengcheng's medical ethics and medical skills, and portrayed him as a role model of traditional Chinese medicine.
They don't understand the young people of today. They think that if they praise Jiang Pengcheng's medical ethics and skills, netizens in the live broadcast room will believe it and bring some traffic to Jiang Pengcheng.
However, young people on the Internet are used to routines, and the main thing is rebellion. The more obvious your promotion is, the more disgusted they will be.
What's wrong with this group of people? It doesn't seem like they're just here to see a doctor.
[Forget about the feelings. They are here to cause trouble. They are probably afraid that Teacher Xiaobai's newly opened Chinese medicine clinic will take away their business, so they are here to pick a fight.]
[The way these aunties speak is the type of people I hate the most. This skinny male Chinese medicine doctor is also the same. He looks so sanctimonious, but the moment he opens his mouth, he becomes hypocritical and false.]
[Help! I can't even count how many times they've mentioned that male TCM doctor's name and his TCM clinic. Aren't they really just using Xiaobai's livestream to make a fool of themselves?]
I can’t stand it anymore, it’s too noisy. Teacher Xiaobai, can you please make them shut up?
Bai Jiesui had also long been fed up with them and once again told them to shut up.
"This is not a community park. It's not a place for you to chat. If you want to chat, please go away."
She repeatedly failed to give face to her old sisters, and this group of people became somewhat angry.
People of their age are the most unruly, especially young people who want to manage them, but they are not qualified.
"It's really unbelievable. I used to hear that customers are king, but now, let alone king, even speaking to them requires judging their expressions."
Bai Jiesui glanced coldly at the person who spoke. She was an older woman who dressed too much, with curly hair and heavy makeup. Among the people in the group, several were dressed similarly.
"If you want to be God here, you may have come to the wrong place. I don't accept God here, I only accept patients and fellow patients in need."
"You mean we're not welcome anymore?"
"You are indeed not welcome. You came uninvited and did not comply with my appointment requirements, disrupting my plans."
Faced with Bai Jiesui's sharp words, the curly-haired aunt couldn't think of any rebuttal and her face turned pale with anger.
Sister Liu: "Oh, alright, alright, everyone, please be quiet for now. We're going to disturb the little girl while she's taking her pulse. If she doesn't get it right, you'll be the ones to blame."
The curly-haired lady said in a deliberately sarcastic tone, "Isn't this good? Someone is taking the blame."
"That's right, then we have to talk even more."
"I've been to every Chinese medicine clinic in the world, and no one ever told me to shut up when I spoke in the amulet."
This group of people got angry and insisted on challenging Bai Jiesui, completely forgetting what Sister Liu had said yesterday and this morning.
Sister Liu couldn't let them go on like this. If Bai Jiesui got angry and drove them all away, all her efforts would be in vain.
"Since we are on someone else's territory and they don't allow us to speak, we should just shut up."
Sister Liu has an old habit of speaking harshly, which makes her not suitable for lobbying or persuading. Instead, it will intensify the conflict. This group of old sisters will not listen to her call.
"Why? My mouth is on my body. I can say whatever I want. How can you block my mouth?"
Bai Jiesui's patience has reached its limit and he is ready to blast them all out.
Jiang Pengcheng: "Please give me some respect, everyone. Please keep quiet for now. If you have anything to say, wait until I finish taking your pulse."
His words were obviously more effective, and the group of old sisters immediately quieted down.
Bai Jiesui gave them a deep look and said bluntly, "If you bother me again, I'll ask all of you to leave."
The old sisters were extremely dissatisfied and their eyes were about to roll up to the sky, but when Jiang Pengcheng looked at them, they all shut up obediently.
Sister Liu was proud of Jiang Pengcheng's appeal. She looked at Jiang Pengcheng proudly, but heard Bai Jiesui asking her to change hands.
"Have you finished looking at the left hand?" Sister Liu asked in surprise, because only a few seconds had passed.
Bai Jiesui had already taken Sister Liu's pulse on her left hand. In fact, the noisy chatter of the old sisters did not disturb her. She simply hated listening to them talk and hated them affecting the audience in the live broadcast room.
She didn't answer Sister Liu's question.
Sister Liu suspected that she was fooling around, and she curled her lips, thinking that it was just as she expected.
Sister Liu finished the treatment on her right hand very quickly, in less than three minutes.
After reading it, she did not immediately talk about Sister Liu's situation. She first looked at Jiang Pengcheng, and then looked at Sister Liu.
"Your condition is private. Do you need to clear the area before I can talk to you?"
Jiang Pengcheng: "What do you want to clear? Just tell me directly."
Bai Jiesui still ignored Jiang Pengcheng and waited for Sister Liu's reply.
Sister Liu: "I'm not like some little girls. I have nothing to be embarrassed about."
Since she said so, Bai Jiesui had nothing to worry about and glanced at them.
"Are you two a couple?"
"Is there even a need to ask? Can't you see it yourself? We've been married for almost 30 years."
"Do you have any other boyfriend besides your husband?"
Bai Jiesui's words caused Sister Liu's brain to freeze for a moment.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, besides your legal husband, do you have any other boyfriends with whom you have an intimate relationship? Or any male friends with whom you have had an intimate relationship recently?"
Sister Liu finally understood and immediately became furious.
"Why would I look for a boyfriend when I already have a husband? Are you trying to slander me and throw dirty water on me?"
"Why do you say that? Do you know something?" Jiang Pengcheng's face also turned green.
Bai Jiesui: "I do know something, but I need to confirm it with the patient first."
In Jiang Pengcheng's opinion, this is a disguised admission that there is something wrong with Sister Liu.
Men are extremely sensitive to such topics, as it concerns their reputation. No man can tolerate his wife cheating on him.
Regardless of whether this was true or not, the first thing he did was to question Sister Liu.
"Tell me honestly, you go out dancing with Lao Zhang every day, have you hooked up with him in private?"
"Old Zhang is already so old, how could you say that?"
"What about Lao Wang? He's your old classmate, about the same age as you, and he often dances with you."
"God knows, I barely run into Lao Wang twice a year, how could I possibly hook up with him?"
It is said that when Sister Liu’s old sister makes iron, she treats it as real iron, and when she makes plastic, she treats it as plastic enough.
When I see something exciting going on, I feel like the world will be in chaos.
"But recently I've often seen Brother Wu San and Sister Liu playing mahjong together, and Sister Liu always wins."
"Sister Liu, you shouldn't be like this. You have such a good husband like Brother Jiang, and you don't need to worry about anything at home or outside. How can you go out and look for someone else?"
Jiang Pengcheng took what he heard to heart, and his expression became even uglier. He looked at Sister Liu as if he wanted to eat her alive.
Sister Liu was so angry that her chest hurt, and she pointed her trembling fingers at Bai Jiesui, the "culprit".
"Don't be fooled by her. This is all her conspiracy."
Jiang Pengcheng still didn't believe her, mainly because the seeds of doubt had already been planted in his heart. Whether there was evidence or not, he would still have some reservations, while the old sisters were more of a watch-the-fun type of person.
Sister Liu gritted her teeth and said to Bai Jiesui: "You have such a vicious heart. I have always been clean and innocent. I will never let you throw dirty water on me."
In contrast, Bai Jiesui's emotions remained stable.
She confirmed with Sister Liu one last time: "Are you sure you've only ever had intimate relations with your husband?"
"If you insult my innocence again, believe it or not, I will be rude to you." Sister Liu slammed the table and rolled up her sleeves.
She is known for her toughness and has never been defeated in any quarrel or fight.
Netizens in the live broadcast room couldn't help but worry for Bai Jiesui. It was a pity that even if they broke their keyboards, they couldn't help Bai Jiesui on the spot.
The Green River staff who were still debugging the equipment on site were on high alert, ready to go up and control Sister Liu at any time.
Bai Jiesui said calmly, "If you didn't have intimate relations with a third person, then the syphilis in your body could only have been transmitted to you by your husband."
Sister Liu rolled up her sleeves and was about to cause trouble for Bai Jiesui, but she was dumbfounded and speechless.
The eyes of the old sisters were wide open.
Sister Liu: "What did you say? I have syphilis?"
Bai Jiesui nodded slightly: "Yes, you are infected with syphilis."
Sister Liu turned to look at Jiang Pengcheng, and without even asking him a single question, she immediately denied it: "That's absolutely impossible! Stop talking nonsense. Our Pengcheng is a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine. How could he have syphilis?"
Bai Jiesui: "Traditional Chinese medicine practitioners are no different from ordinary people. As long as they meet the transmission route, they will be infected just the same."
Sister Liu still doesn't believe what she said until now.
Unlike Jiang Pengcheng, she was unwilling to doubt her husband. She always felt that her husband was the best in the world and it was impossible for him to cheat on her.
"First you slandered me, and now you're slandering my husband, right? Husband, please say something! They've already framed you."
Jiang Pengcheng had a subtle look on his face. After being pushed by Sister Liu, he and Sister Liu stood on the same side.
"What do you mean? We are here to take care of your business, not for you to tease and slander us. If you run your clinic like this, who will dare to come in the future?"
Bai Jiesui looked at him coldly: "Why do you think I'm teasing you? Doctor Jiang, why don't you think carefully about it? Have you really not been exposed to the source of infection?"
Jiang Pengcheng avoided the gaze guiltily, but remained calm.
"You're talking nonsense! I've been a law-abiding person and never had any chance of coming into contact with syphilis. Besides, I'm a Chinese medicine doctor and I know the symptoms of syphilis. How could I not know whether my husband and I were infected with syphilis? If you want to see a doctor, then see a doctor carefully. Even if you don't understand, don't talk nonsense."
With Jiang Pengcheng's rebuttal, Sister Liu felt more confident in speaking.
"We are in good health, so how could we have those diseases? Don't try to fool us. If you are not capable enough, just study more. Why are you showing off in front of Guan Gong?"
After saying that, she winked at her old sisters, indicating that there was nothing going on between her and Jiang Pengcheng, and asked them to help speak up.
The old sisters had different expressions, but no one responded, obviously wanting to continue watching the fun.
Bai Jiesui: "You were infected two weeks ago and are currently in the incubation period, so you don't have any symptoms yet. You can calculate the time. Did you have intimate relations two weeks ago?"
Sister Liu was shocked when she heard this.
Middle-aged couples of their age rarely have sex, but once it happens, they will remember it clearly.
What's more, it was her constant invitations that day that made Jiang Pengcheng reluctantly agree.
Sister Liu, who had always been steadfast and believed in her husband, was inevitably shaken and looked at Jiang Pengcheng in disbelief.
Bai Jiesui: "Doctor Jiang, would you like to sit down too? I can help you find out when you were infected and determine the source of infection."
