Chapter 44: Being entangled by her
"Deputy Director Zhou was wearing a red armband. Is it appropriate to act like this in public?"
"You quack, you diagnosed my illness and you still think it's reasonable!"
Zhou Juan gritted her teeth and glared.
She was usually domineering and everyone gave her some respect, but she didn't expect to meet a tough guy like Ruan Chuxia today.
Relying on a certain status.
Zhou Juan thought that Xiao Zhiyu, as the head of the village, would not do anything to her, so she became even more presumptuous.
She lay on the ground, covering her head and screaming.
Soon, many residents in the yard came to watch.
"Isn't this Deputy Director Zhou? Who is so unlucky to be entangled by her?"
"Look at this situation, it seems to be the Xiao Lichang family. How pitiful! The Xiao Lichang family's young wife is still young and must have never seen such a scene."
There was a sigh from the crowd of onlookers.
Someone in the crowd couldn't help but interrupt, "Deputy Director Zhou, stop making a fuss. Everyone around here knows you. Why make a fool of yourself?"
After being scolded in public, Zhou Juan's face became even uglier.
She simply lay motionless on the ground, holding her head and began to cry and scream at the top of her voice: "Oh! Who can give me justice! That girl from Xiao Lichang's family is a quack! She ruined my head and she refused to take responsibility!"
"Someone come quickly! There's no law!"
Zhou Juan's voice echoed in the air.
Seeing that Ruan Chuxia looked weak and could be bullied, Zhou Juan started rolling around at the door.
This method had worked for her many times in the past and she had reaped many benefits.
This time, she also wanted to do the same, hoping to force the other party to submit.
However, what Zhou Juan didn't expect was that Ruan Chuxia sneered and turned back to the house to get a silver needle.
Ruan Chuxia narrowed her eyes, and before Zhou Juan could react, she stabbed her chin accurately with a "pop".
The sudden pain made Zhou Juan open her eyes wide and tremble with fear.
She jumped up from the ground in a hurry, pointing at Ruan Chuxia and was about to curse.
But he couldn't utter a complete word.
Fear gradually appeared on Zhou Juan's face.
She held Ruan Chuxia's arm tightly, and kept shouting: "Woo... Woo..."
But no one could hear what she was saying.
Ruan Chuxia smiled faintly at this scene, and unceremoniously shook her hand away, explaining: "Don't worry, Deputy Director Zhou, you were too noisy, so I lit a fire to make you quiet down a little."
This point can cause slurred speech and temporary loss of voice, but the condition quickly recovers.
At this moment, Zhou Juan's face was pale.
Ruan Chuxia nimbly avoided Zhou Juan's attack and at the same time tripped her, causing Zhou Juan to fall heavily to the ground.
“Woo—”
The severe pain made Zhou Juan cry.
At this moment, she wanted to make a sound to express her pain, but found that her throat seemed to be blocked by something.
He couldn't even make the most basic moan.
Finally, she pointed her finger in Ruan Chuxia's direction.
However, all that came out of her mouth was still the sound of "Woo..." again and again.
Seeing this, Zhou Juan quickly turned around and fled the scene.
And among the crowd watching on the side, a few exclamations of praise suddenly rang out.
"Oh my, this Doctor Ruan is really amazing. I didn't expect that Deputy Director Zhou, who is usually so high and mighty, would be defeated."
"Yes, yes, in my opinion, calling her 'Divine Doctor Ruan' is the most appropriate!"
Ruan Chuxia quickly waved her hands and said modestly, "No, no, no, you are too kind. I am still far from being that kind. Please just call me Xiao Ruan."
Faced with everyone's praise, she felt a little shy and embarrassed.
This incident actually did not cause much fluctuation in Ruan Chuxia.
Because she was already used to this experience.
After adjusting her mood, she began to prepare some hot and delicious dishes, intending to send them to Xiao Zhiyu later.
Ruan Chuxia was busy for quite a while.
Finally, four delicious dishes with good color, aroma and taste were made.
All dishes are placed in lunch boxes and carefully placed in mesh bags.
Just as Ruan Chuxia had prepared everything and was about to go out with the food, there was a sudden knock on the door...
"Comrade Ruan Chuxia? Are you home? Open the door quickly!"
"I'm Yuan Li, the women's director of our village. If you're home now, please open the door for me!"
Ruan Chuxia's eyes became much colder and her smile faded.
She secretly guessed in her heart that it was probably because of what happened before.
Ruan Chuxia wiped her hands calmly, slowly lifted the curtain from the kitchen, and walked to the door step by step.
It's sunny outside.
As soon as I opened the door, a woman in work clothes with ear-length hair stood outside.
There was a hint of displeasure between her brows.
Zhou Juan behind him kept humming and chirping.
When Zhou Juan saw Ruan Chuxia coming out, her eyes suddenly widened.
She hurriedly grabbed Yuan Li's arm, pointed at Ruan Chuxia and shouted loudly.
Yuan Li was obviously a little impatient with Zhou Juan's behavior.
She turned around and said coldly to Zhou Juan, "Okay, stop yelling here. I know!"
Yuan Li looked up at Ruan Chuxia who was standing at the door.
In the warm sunshine, she looked clean and beautiful, not at all like the kind of person who could make someone mute with a silver needle.
However, there was still doubt in Yuan Li's eyes.
"Comrade Ruan Chuxia, was it you who made Comrade Zhou Juan speechless?"
"I wouldn't say she's been mute. I just told her to temporarily stop using her tongue and stop saying harsh things. She'll be fine in an hour or so."
Ruan Chuxia replied indifferently.
Ruan Chuxia counted the time silently in her mind and felt that it was probably almost time.
Sure enough, just after she finished saying this, Zhou Juan, who had been sobbing just now, suddenly coughed and shouted in surprise: "Ah, I can speak!"
However, Zhou Juan had just returned to normal when she immediately changed her expression. She looked at Ruan Chuxia arrogantly and said, "Mrs. Xiao, you're going too far. You can't even speak to people easily. Who would dare to come to you for treatment?"
Then, Zhou Juan continued even more arrogantly: "You must give me an explanation for this matter today! Pay me compensation!"
No matter whether it is reasonable or not, if you hit her first, it becomes unreasonable in her eyes!
Zhou Juan hummed proudly.
Yuan Li frowned and interrupted her.
"Don't show off. I'm here to take care of things, not to compete!"
"Comrade Ruan Chuxia, as a doctor, this is not good for the patient. You need to give me an explanation for this."
Yuan Li hopes that the other party can give her a clear explanation.
After all, a doctor's duty is to cure diseases and save lives, not to create conflicts with patients.
Seeing that Yuan Li was still making sense, Ruan Chuxia narrowed her eyes slightly and said with a smile: "Didn't the director listen to what Deputy Director Zhou said before he came here?"
There was a hint of teasing in her words.
"She came to me and made trouble because she was greedy for a small advantage. She insisted that I prescribe her a tonic even though she was not sick. When I refused, she lay on the ground and made a scene, and even spread rumors and slandered me as a quack."
Ruan Chuxia told the whole story in detail.
