Chapter 329: Blocked at the Gate
Jin Yue's tone was full of confusion: "I don't know that woman either. When I asked her what she wanted to see you for, she refused to tell me. Anyway, she just asked to see you."
Xu Nuo said "hmm" lightly, as if he didn't care.
Seeing her attitude, Jin Yue couldn't help but remind her: "You'd better be careful. Zhou Ling was bullied and cried before. We came here to help, but these villagers don't know how to be grateful at all!"
She became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and couldn't help but complain loudly: "Now the old men and women in the village look at me as if I were an enemy. Yesterday, on my way back to the village office, I met a few old ladies and took the initiative to say hello, but they ignored me and even spit at me behind my back!"
Xu Nuo glanced at her and smiled slightly: "Is there such a thing?"
She snorted coldly and said angrily: "You still can laugh, aren't we helping a bunch of ungrateful wolves?"
Xu Nuo sighed, his tone calm but helpless: "You can't say that. Most of these elderly people have little education, and even if they do, their knowledge is limited. They can't understand what we are doing. When they hear someone say that vaccines are not good, they naturally resist."
Jin Yue scratched her hair irritably: "I really don't want to stay here for a day, I can't wait to go back! What about you? I want to see how you can keep your composure?"
Xu Nuo smiled bitterly: "I don't want to stay either, but some things have to be done by someone."
Jin Yue, who has always been optimistic, now pouted, with unhappiness written all over her face.
She raised her hand and patted her shoulder to comfort her: "Be patient, we will be able to go back soon."
Jin Yue sighed: "Okay... I can only bear it..."
In the afternoon, someone from the village came running to report that his child had a high fever and was about to develop a rash.
When Xu Nuo heard this, he immediately put down the work at hand, grabbed the medicine box and rushed over.
In the past few days, they have been constantly promoting epidemic prevention knowledge in the village, and village cadres have been broadcasting on a loop through loudspeakers. In addition, all medical care is free, so the villagers gradually stop resisting and will come to her on their own initiative once their children have a fever.
Xu Nuo prescribed some medicine and told the parents to take good care of the child and to ensure proper ventilation and epidemic prevention at home. She would come back for a checkup every day in the future.
The good news is that among the first batch of children who fell ill, those with mild symptoms have begun to recover gradually, and her work has also seen the first ray of hope.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to see a doctor, Xu Nuo once again appealed to parents: "Healthy children should be vaccinated as soon as possible to avoid infection."
Throughout the afternoon, Xu Nuo ran back and forth in the village, checking on patients from house to house, and was very busy.
Because of this, she never met the woman Jin Yue mentioned.
In the evening, Zhou Ling stayed at the treatment center on duty, while Xu Nuo and Jin Yue returned to the village office for dinner.
At the dinner table, Jin Yue took two bites of rice and suddenly lowered her voice and said, "That woman is here again. She didn't say anything except that she was looking for you. I was giving the children IVs, but she didn't leave. She just stared at me. It was creepy."
Xu Nuo picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and said calmly: "Don't worry about her for now, work is more important right now, we'll talk about it after we're done."
Jin Yue hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay."
Five days passed in a flash, and the work in the village gradually got back on track. The days were so peaceful that it seemed as if the appearance of that woman was just a small episode.
Xu Nuo had already put this matter behind him and devoted himself to the rescue work.
However, this morning, she had just finished breakfast and was about to go out to the primary school treatment center. When she opened the door, she suddenly froze in place.
The woman was standing at the door, staring at her.
What made Xu Nuo even more nervous was that there were four or five young girls standing behind the woman, all of them with gloomy faces and unfriendly looks.
The air froze instantly.
At this moment, Xu Nuo was the only one in the room. Jin Yue and Zhou Ling were on duty at the primary school treatment center last night.
It was still early in the village office before work started, and these people had obviously chosen this moment to block her. If a fight really broke out, Xu Nuo felt that she would definitely suffer.
After all, she had seen the "fighting power" of the villagers.
The woman looked Xu Nuo up and down with a cold face and said sharply: "Are you Xu Nuo?"
Xu Nuo nodded, trying to appear calm: "I am. What can I do for you?"
The woman sneered: "Of course I have something to say! My name is Feng Zhenzhen, and I'm Erzhuzi's girlfriend!"
"Hello." Xu Nuo greeted naturally, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
"I'm fine? I'm not fine! I'm very fine!" She took a step closer, her voice suddenly rising, "Tell me how you seduced him? He came back and told me he wanted to break off the engagement, and we were about to get married!"
Xu Nuo was startled, then frowned: "You misunderstood, Er Zhuzi and I only had contact at work, there was nothing like what you said."
Feng Zhenzhen didn't listen at all, gritting her teeth and said, "Why are you pretending? Someone saw you two staying together all night! Erzhuzi's vest was even torn, and I bought it for him!"
Xu Nuo laughed in anger: "We went to rescue someone that day, and I did accidentally tear his clothes. What are you thinking?"
At this moment, Xu Nuo was glad that she had not yet compensated Erzhuzi for his clothes. Otherwise, if Erzhuzi had an extra piece of clothing, wouldn't it be even more difficult for her to explain?
Before Feng Zhenzhen opened her mouth, the women behind her could no longer hold back and started to shout at once:
A tall and thin woman said shrilly, "My man keeps calling me 'Doctor Xu' and complaining about me!"
Another short and fat woman with red eyes interrupted: "I have been married for so many years, and he has never complained that I am dirty! Now he scolds me for being unhygienic and lazy every day!"
Everyone became more and more excited as they talked, pointing the finger at Xu Nuo, as if she was the culprit who had destroyed their marriage.
Xu Nuo felt annoyed listening to these ridiculous accusations. She knew that no matter how she explained, these people would not believe her.
She simply interrupted them and asked directly: "So what do you want to do now?"
As soon as Xu Nuo finished speaking, the air froze.
Feng Zhenzhen's neck veins bulged, and her nails almost poked the other's nose. "How dare you ask me? You bastard who stole men! You seduced my second son to do something shameless, and you still ask me!"
She pounced over and grabbed Xu Nuo's white coat, as ferocious as a lioness with her fur standing on end.
