Chapter 40 Who is the old man in the cowshed?
That was a familiar face!
It was the disfigured old man who had picked them up at the educated youth settlement that day.
"Get away!"
With a sharp shout, the old man threw cow dung at Zhou Ye. If Zhou Ye hadn't dodged quickly, it would have hit him.
His eyes were filled with disgust, as if Zhou Ye would kill her if she looked at him any longer.
Zhou didn't know who he was, and he seemed difficult to approach.
Back at the village clinic, there were three female educated youths: Huang Ying, Li Hong, and Chen Lan! Chen Lan was the one who was injured. She had picked up a sickle while weeding, but she had never used it before and it hit her calf. Luckily, she wasn't very strong, otherwise she could have gone straight back to the city for treatment!
When Chen Lan saw Zhou Ye, it was as if she had seen a savior: "Zhou, help me! I've lost a lot of blood, what should I do?"
what to do?
"Ouch, that hurts!"
When Zhou Ye got closer, he saw that there was indeed a lot of blood. The injury was quite frightening, but fortunately it wasn't in a good spot, so all that was needed was to stop the bleeding.
but……
Best of all, Chen Lan should go to the county town for a tetanus shot!
Because she noticed the sickle was rusty!
The culprit was lying on the ground, its worn-out rust telling everyone that it had also done a great job!
But the blood on it revealed its danger.
The village chief hadn't yet applied for commonly used first-aid supplies such as disinfectant, alcohol, and iodine, so Zhou simply took some cooled boiled water and poured it directly onto the wound to rinse away any remaining particles. The wound was about five centimeters in size, but fortunately it wasn't deep and didn't need stitches.
Today I happened to pick some herbs that can stop bleeding and reduce inflammation. I washed and crushed them, and used them on Chen Lan first.
"ah……"
Chen Lan cried out in pain.
Huang Ying had found a handle: "Zhou Ye, are you doing this on purpose? We are all girls, how can we bear such pain?"
Why didn't you use anesthesia?
Are you jealous that Chen Lan can earn work points in the fields? Are you deliberately making things difficult for her?
Zhou gave her a speechless look: "Guess why I didn't use it?"
"You did this on purpose!"
"Big idiot"
Zhou also cursed, and Huang Ying was completely dumbfounded!
How... how can someone swear?
"You're swearing? You're a doctor, why are you swearing? I think you're a vicious woman, you're doing it on purpose!"
"Yes, do you believe I, this poisonous woman, can make you mute!"
Zhou Ye glared at Huang Ying with a sinister look, thinking, "She really has too much free time on her mind!"
Huang Ying laughed sarcastically: "You really think you know how to use poison? You're just a little girl in your teens."
Who are you trying to fool?
I told you... Ah... Abba aba..."
Zhou Ye hovered around Huang Ying in front of everyone for a moment, and Huang Ying immediately fell silent.
Looking at Zhou Ye, Huang Ying's pupils reflected fear. She clutched her throat, unable to believe what was happening.
Zhou Ye... she really would?
Huang Ying was terrified. She wanted to beg for mercy, but her pride wouldn't allow her to do so.
Li Hong was, after all, a veteran of the educated youth movement. Although she knew Huang Ying had a sharp tongue, she still had a bias towards her.
After hesitating for a moment, he pleaded for Huang Ying: "I'm sorry, Huang Ying just has a bad tongue, she doesn't mean any harm."
"Wouldn't it be a bit too much to just poison her and make her mute?"
Zhou smiled and said, "Ten minutes will be enough!"
"Ah!" Li Hong was surprised. She was surprised that Zhou Ye could control time as well as his medical skills.
Li Hong glanced at Huang Ying, then at Zhou Ye's busy figure, and whispered to Huang Ying, "Ten minutes is enough! He's not really angry! You should talk less in the future. He may be young, but he's not someone to be bullied!"
Next time you offend them, they might poison you so badly you'll lose your voice. Who will you complain to then?
Huang Ying: "Waaah... Aba aba..."
"Alright, alright, you've finally met your match! Not everyone is someone you can bully! Don't mess with them again. Learn from this!"
Li Hong advised.
Huang Ying's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets!
Zhou carefully bandaged Chen Lan's wound and instructed her, "Chen Qingqing, although the wound is not big, the sickle is rusty, so there may be a risk of tetanus infection!"
You still need to go to the county town for your injection!
Chen Lan's face turned pale: "Is the infection serious?"
"You'll die!" Zhou knew that people these days were trying to save every penny they could! So he went straight to the point: if you got tetanus and didn't get treatment in time, you really would die.
Whether they fight or not is entirely up to luck!
Chen Lan's face turned even paler: "Okay, I understand, thank you!"
"No need! Go back and rest!"
Chen Lan was helped back to the educated youth settlement by Huang Ying and Li Hong!
"Can you take the day off tomorrow? I want to go to the county town to get a shot."
Huang Ying scoffed: "You actually believe that? I've been in Hongqi Village for so long, and I've seen several people injured by sickles, but I've never seen them go to the county town for injections!"
I think Zhou is just lying to you!
They want you to spend money!
"Really?"
"Of course, doctors exaggerate, that's just how it is. Do you know how much it costs to get a shot in the county town?"
I heard it costs several dollars!
With this money, wouldn't it be better to eat meat?
Chen Lan thought about her savings. Since buying the suitcase, she only had a few yuan left. She couldn't even afford to eat a piece of meat. Did she really have to go for an injection?
Perhaps... Zhou exaggerated.
My wound wasn't deep, so why did I get infected?
Besides, I'm so young, I'll definitely be fine!
"Okay, I think it's fine too! Then I won't go!" Chen Lan smiled.
Li Hong suppressed her unease: "Why don't you go? I think Zhou Ye's medical skills are quite good, he shouldn't be talking nonsense!"
Huang Ying exclaimed in dissatisfaction, "What's wrong with you? Taking someone else's side?"
Li Hong begged for mercy, unable to argue with Huang Ying: "Fine, fine, I won't say anything more! You decide for yourselves!"
After Zhou finished tidying up the village clinic, he dried all the herbs he had picked that day... so they would be easier to use later!
While dealing with the situation, I kept thinking back: Did the old man in the cowshed know where Grandpa and Grandma were?
Did my grandparents leave something behind?
The green box I received contained a piece of paper, which was clearly only half full. Where is the other half?
Since my grandparents died so suddenly, could they have been left in that cowshed?
Looks like I need to go check out the cowshed.
At 11:30 a.m., Zhou carried a basket containing a fish, several kilograms of pork, and cleaned pig intestines.
Back at the educated youth settlement, we ran into Bai Xue, who had rushed back to cook!
"Sister Zhou, you're back too? Did you buy any meat?"
Zhou handed the basket to Bai Xue, who was overjoyed to see what was inside.
"Sister Zhou, I love eating fish! You're such a fairy! I love you to death!" She tried to cling to Zhou Ye, who quickly dodged away.
The two chased each other until they reached the backyard, where they saw Su Yunzhou reading a book.
Bai Xue pouted, "Sigh... there really are people who enjoy life!"
But she quickly realized, "Hehe, he's just my God of Wealth, so I can understand!"
Zhou shook his head helplessly.
"You're back?" Su Yunzhou looked at Zhou Ye with a big smile. His body had really recovered very quickly!
For the first time, he felt he had a future!
Have you seen the old man working in the cowshed? Who is he?
Since they were allies, Zhou asked directly.
