Liu Moli's face turned bright red.
She thought the new doctor was a "clumsy novice," but she never expected him to be a "miracle doctor."
A quick pulse diagnosis revealed that what Liu Moli had done the previous night was now completely obvious to the doctor.
Liu Moli secretly rejoiced that when she registered, she gave the name of her sister-in-law, Chen Yufeng. She also didn't reveal her status as a widow after entering the consultation room.
otherwise······
The consequences were too terrible for Liu Moli to bear.
"Doctor, thank you for your help. I'll take the medicine home and decoct it myself! I'm busy at home and don't have time to come to town every day." Liu Moli picked up the prescription and quickly left.
It looks like I won't be able to get sleeping pills this time. I'll try seeing another doctor next time.
Unfortunately, there's only one hospital in Peach Blossom Town. Otherwise, Liu Moli would rather spend more money to go to another hospital today.
As for going to Qingshan County?
With Zhou's mother sending people to keep an eye on her, Liu Moli couldn't leave Peach Blossom Town at all.
Wang Jing didn't take it to heart.
After writing down the pulse diagnosis, it was already lunchtime.
Wang Jing was just about to go home for dinner when Aunt Tao arrived.
"Xiao Jing, I've brought you your food." When Aunt Tao saw Wang Jing, her face beamed with joy.
"Mom, you don't need to bring me food anymore. I'll eat at home for lunch," Wang Jing said.
"You're not busy anymore? That shouldn't be the case! Before, you were always so busy that you didn't even have time for lunch." Aunt Tao looked at the empty clinic and corridor with a surprised expression.
Wang Jing's ancestors were imperial physicians, and Wang Jing inherited her family's medical skills.
Wang Jing said that the most medically talented person in their lineage was able to treat patients from the age of eight.
Wang Jing was also a studious person. In order to improve her medical skills, she even went to medical school. After graduating from university, Wang Jing joined the army as a military doctor, where she met Tao Jiadong.
After getting married, Wang Jing's work always followed Tao Jiadong. Wherever Tao Jiadong was transferred, Wang Jing followed.
Tao Jiadong's previous job was in Haishi.
When Wang Jing worked at a hospital in Shanghai, the line of patients waiting to see her was always packed. Some patients who couldn't get an appointment for a follow-up visit would ask Wang Jing to add them to their schedule.
Wang Jing usually adds extra appointments, preferring to work harder herself to see all the patients.
When Wang Jing gets busy, she often forgets to eat.
Aunt Tao felt sorry for Wang Jing, so as long as Wang Jing was at work, Aunt Tao would deliver her lunch to the hospital every day at noon.
Wang Jing smiled and said, "Mom, having fewer patients isn't a bad thing. It means that the people here are in good health and don't need to see a doctor."
"That's not necessarily true. Maybe they're just poor and can't afford medical care! This is the countryside, and most people don't even have enough to eat. They pass down clothes from one big person to another, and they wear them for three years, then another three, patching and mending them for another three. Unless it's a serious illness, who would want to go to the hospital?" Aunt Tao muttered.
Wang Jing's eyes lit up.
That's right, this is a rural area, not a mirage.
Taohua Town Hospital is a small, unknown hospital. How could it possibly attract patients from all over the country like Haishi Hospital?
In her spare time, she can study medicine more so that she can better serve the people in the future.
Thinking of this, Wang Jing's brows relaxed.
Aunt Tao made two dishes and a soup today: stir-fried sliced pork with wood ear mushrooms, stir-fried greens, and tomato and egg soup.
Wang Jing ate with great relish.
Aunt Tao reminded her, "Xiao Jing! Tonight, our family is going to Zhao Qingshan's house for dinner. Don't forget, hurry home after get off work."
When Wang Jing gets busy, she often stays up late to leave work.
Although there are no patients now, no one can guarantee that there won't be any in the afternoon!
It had been more than 20 years since Aunt Tao and her family had parted ways with Zhao Qingshan. This was their first formal visit after their reunion, and Aunt Tao didn't want to be late, fearing that Zhao Qingshan would misunderstand and think they were putting on airs.
“Mother, I remember,” Wang Jing replied.
"What a pity about Qingshan. If he hadn't changed jobs back then, his position would definitely be higher than Jiadong's now." Aunt Tao sighed as she recalled the past.
“I heard from Jiadong that Zhao Qingshan is now their battalion commander. If Zhao Qingshan had continued to develop in the army, his future should have been bright. Why did Zhao Qingshan choose to leave the military back then?” Wang Jing asked curiously.
"For the sake of the family!" Aunt Tao sighed and said, "Wu Meiyun's family background was bad. Her ancestors were second-rank officials in the Qing Dynasty, and her father was a capitalist. The family moved abroad during the Republic of China era. Wu Meiyun was sick at the time and was left behind with her wet nurse. Later, someone tried to use Wu Meiyun to blackmail the Wu family for ransom. To protect Wu Meiyun, the wet nurse said that Wu Meiyun was her biological daughter and that the Wu family's young lady had died of illness long ago."
"I see." Wang Jing sighed.
Wu Meiyun's background cannot withstand investigation.
If Zhao Qingshan doesn't change his military service, he'll have to go through a political review to get married, and Wu Meiyun's past will be dug up.
Although Wu Meiyun did not enjoy the wealth of the Wu family, a major capitalist, the fact that she carries the blood of the Wu family is undeniable.
"Xiao Jing, after you finish eating at the Zhao family's house today, please take a good look at Mei Yun. I heard from Qing Shan yesterday that Mei Yun's asthma has flared up again in the past few years," Aunt Tao instructed before leaving.
"Mother, I will," Wang Jing replied.
After Aunt Tao left, Wang Jing, having nothing to do, started organizing a pile of medical records in the cabinet.
At that time, doctors weren't as specialized. Basically, every doctor was a generalist. They could treat a cold, stitch up wounds, treat infertility, and also cure minor ailments like headaches and fevers.
No matter what the illness, as long as the patient goes to see a doctor, the doctor can provide appropriate treatment.
Wang Jing's consultation room is not just a consultation room; there is a large cabinet on the wall containing the patient's medical records from the past five years.
In some places, there are more typical symptoms. Wang Jing wanted to see what diseases patients in Peach Blossom Town were most likely to have, and whether the mortality rate was high.
Not long after lunch, Zhao Qingshan's family began to busy themselves, determined to prepare a delicious and visually appealing meal to entertain their long-lost friends, Tao Jiadong and his family.
Zhao Qingshan made his best dishes: braised pork knuckle and sweet and sour carp.
Zhao Zhenzhu made lotus root sandwiches and fried meatballs, as well as several other snacks.
Wu Meiyun helped pick the vegetables, and Zhou Yunyun helped peel the garlic.
Zhou Yunyun also used the excuse of "helping her mother try the taste" to eat snacks until her little belly was round.
Zhao Zhenzhu jokingly called her daughter a "little pig".
Zhou Yunyun actually said, "Being a pig is good. Pigs can eat a lot and are lucky."
This amused Zhao Qingshan and his wife immensely.
When Tao Jiadong's family arrived, Zhao Tianyu and Liang Xiaohe had just gotten home from get off work not long ago.
Tao Jiadong was carrying a basket containing a bottle of Moutai, a dozen eggs, and two bundles of noodles.
Upon seeing Zhao Qingshan and his family standing at the door to greet him, Tao Jiadong happily called out, "Battalion Commander, Sister-in-law."
