Chapter 462: See a Doctor
Although Zhou Ziwen had little contact with the educated youth in the Youth League Institute, they were all in the same place and were neighbors. They saw each other every day and often ran into each other whether going to work or coming home.
It is common for people to nod and say hello to each other when they meet.
Sometimes we chat for a few minutes when we're on the way.
So Zhou Ziwen was not unfamiliar with the people in the Youth League Institute.
They came to visit today, and Zhou Ziwen was not stingy. He brought out dried fruits, roasted nuts, tea and other things to treat them.
He got these things from the mountains and gave them to the Chen sisters as snacks.
Especially the camellia, which he found with great difficulty in the mountains.
Because the weather is too cold, tea trees are relatively rare in Heijiang, and he was lucky enough to find a single one.
Seeing Zhou Ziwen so generous, the educated youth immediately smiled and praised him for his magnanimity.
In this era, although dried fruits and roasted nuts are not uncommon, even if most people have them, they would not be as generous as Zhou Ziwen and give them out in handfuls for their children to eat.
These things are basically kept for children at home to eat, or for visiting relatives.
Especially when visiting relatives, giving them a bag of brown sugar or a bag of peanuts will make you feel very proud.
When Zhou Ziwen brought out the radio, the scene became even more lively.
No one even had time to eat snacks. They all gathered around the radio to listen to the sounds coming out of it.
In this era, there are not many programs on the radio, but they are all useful, either news and current affairs, or songs, storytelling, prose, poetry recitation, etc.
Of course, you have to be careful when listening to the radio. Some stations cannot be listened to. If you accidentally hear one, you have to change the channel quickly to avoid being reported.
This station was called overseas broadcasting in that era, also known as the enemy listening station.
"Comrade Ziwen, your radio is so beautiful. How much did you buy it for?"
Zhou Qiang asked enviously.
"It didn't cost much." Zhou Ziwen smiled and shook his head.
For him, more than 100 yuan is not a lot, but for these educated youth, it is quite a lot.
Not to mention not having tickets, even if it were postage stamps, I guess they wouldn't be willing to buy them.
So, he didn't say it out loud to avoid being envied.
"I've seen this kind of radio Comrade Ziwen owns. It costs over a hundred dollars!"
Although Zhou Ziwen did not mention the price, some of the educated youth knew about it.
Just like those who love military affairs, although they don’t have the opportunity to come into contact with them in normal times, they can accurately tell the models of weapons.
There are also many radio enthusiasts in this era.
"So expensive?" Zhou Qiang was shocked when he heard the price.
At the same time, I have a deeper understanding of Zhou Ziwen's family conditions.
Before, he only knew that Zhou Ziwen’s father was a worker, but he didn’t know what level he was. Now it seems that his level must be quite high.
"It's okay. The main reason is that I like radios and I want to buy one no matter how expensive it is." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
"You're really rich." Zhou Qiang gave a thumbs up.
"By the way, how are the piglets you raised? Can they be slaughtered by the end of the year?" Zhou Ziwen smiled and changed the subject.
"No problem. Our piglets may have eaten it. Even a basket of pig grass every day may not be enough for them."
Speaking of this, Zhou Qiang became interested.
These days, he, Zhu Rundong and Hu Guoqiang have been very busy taking care of their piglet.
They got up early and went to bed late every day, going to work, cutting grass for the pigs, and preparing pig pens for the piglets. If they didn't have a few educated youth who had good relationships with them to help, they would definitely be too busy to handle it.
When talking about pig farming, Zhang Wenli next to them also came over to join in the fun.
They started chatting on their own without Zhou Ziwen even having to interrupt.
In their hearts, these piglets are even more precious than their own children. In order to feed the piglets, they even go out in the dark to collect grass for the pigs. They look so energetic and there is no sign of laziness at all.
“It would be great if I could really stick with it.”
Looking at their bursting enthusiasm, Zhou Ziwen thought to himself.
If they can persist, maybe they can really raise this piglet.
Unfortunately, based on his understanding of these people, it was probably just a three-minute enthusiasm.
Once their enthusiasm subsides, things will probably return to their original state.
People's habits are not so easy to change.
Those who can change are ruthless people.
"Brother Ziwen, come here for a moment."
Just as Zhou Ziwen was listening to their lively conversation, Chen Qiaoyi suddenly waved to him from inside the room.
"What's wrong?"
Zhou Ziwen walked over puzzled.
"Wang Xiaoli is in the room and wants you to help her take a look."
Chen Qiaoyi leaned close to Zhou Ziwen's ear and whispered.
"Oh? Okay, I'll go take a look."
Zhou Ziwen was stunned, then he suddenly realized that he had almost forgotten that Wang Xiaoli came to see him the day before yesterday, but he was not there at that time. As a result, Wang Xiaoli did not come to see him later, so he thought it was nothing serious.
Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaoli came to see him again today.
Zhou Ziwen followed Chen Qiaoyi into the house, and as soon as he entered, he saw Wang Xiaoli, who looked a little nervous.
"Huh?"
Looking at Wang Xiaoli's expression, Zhou Ziwen was surprised.
Although his medical skills were not very high, they were comprehensive. Coupled with his five senses that were sharper than ordinary people, he instantly discovered the difference in Wang Xiaoli.
Although he hadn't confirmed her pulse yet, he had a rough guess about Wang Xiaoli's problem.
"Comrade Wang Xiaoli, are you feeling unwell?"
Although he roughly saw the problem, Zhou Ziwen did not say it clearly.
As a doctor, guessing is useless. Only after a diagnosis is confirmed can we say something.
"Well, please help me take a look."
When talking about her illness, Wang Xiaoli lowered her head a little embarrassedly.
If there was no other way, she wouldn't want to come to Zhou Ziwen.
But she didn't have much money, and going to the hospital was too expensive, so she couldn't bear it.
And she still held out hope, hoping that her situation was not what she had guessed.
As a woman, she had some vague guesses about her condition, but she was not a doctor after all, so guesses were useless.
"Okay, then I'll show you."
Seeing Wang Xiaoli's expression, Zhou Ziwen became more certain about her situation.
Seeing this, he didn't ask any more questions. He just needed to take her pulse to know whether she was pregnant or not.
For a Chinese medicine practitioner like him, it is very easy to confirm whether it is a pregnancy pulse.
Anyone who knows a little about taking a pulse can learn it.
"Um."
Looking at Zhou Ziwen's handsome face, Wang Xiaoli's cheeks blushed slightly.
People of this era are still quite conservative. Although she is not afraid of seeing a doctor when she is sick, she is still a girl after all. She cannot remain calm in front of a handsome man like Zhou Ziwen.
Plus, the illness she treated was somewhat private.
Her heart beat faster when she thought that Zhou Ziwen might know her condition when taking her pulse.
On the side, Chen Qiaoyi was a little surprised. She had also helped out in the clinic and naturally knew the process of seeing a doctor.
Observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation are the basis of medical diagnosis.
But this time Zhou Ziwen didn't ask any more questions, which seemed a bit strange.
But she was not stupid. Although she was puzzled, she did not ask any more questions.
