Starting from May, the villagers were busy planting sweet potatoes, which took more than ten days in a row, so no one came to Shen Anning's clinic. Every day, she took her younger brothers and sisters to the mountains to pick herbs and dig some wild vegetables. There were still many children in the two villages who did not go to school, so she took a group of little kids who had not yet gone to school to clean up the mountains.
On this day, Shen Anning was taking a few children to the mountains to talk about bellflower, also known as Polygonatum, a herbal medicine that promotes salivation and relieves coughs. From a distance, they saw Wang Jianhua, the youngest son of Wang Xianzheng, the captain of the third team, whose nickname was Goudan, running and calling out "Sister Anning".
When Shen Anning heard it, he ran over and asked, "What's wrong? Come on, calm down."
"Sister An Ning, come quickly, the village chief asked me to come find you. Someone is bleeding, a lot of blood." After hearing what Goudan said, Shen An Ning didn't even take the backpack, and rushed down the mountain directly, running so fast that she startled the group of children behind her.
Xiao Wang said to Shen Anyu blankly: “Anyu, your sister runs so fast, she is the fastest runner in our village.”
"Sister An Ning is so amazing!"
"Um!"
Human life was at stake, and Shen An Ning had no time to think at all. When he arrived at the courtyard, there was a circle of people gathered outside, chattering, and Shen An Ning didn't understand a word.
The gate of the hospital was already open. Previously, Shen Anning gave a key to the infirmary to the village committee just in case.
"Village chief, Party secretary, what's going on?" When Shen Anning entered the room, he saw a man lying on the plank bed in the inner room, his legs covered in blood.
He took out his key, opened the medicine cabinet, took out the medicine box, saw Aunt Dashuan outside, and said to her, "Aunt Dashuan, please help me get some water on this gauze."
A middle-aged woman standing beside the bed cried, "Chen Zhiqing, please take a look at my daughter. What should I do? What if her leg is broken?"
Shen An Ning wiped the blood with gauze. The wound on her finger had a layer of skin and flesh turned outward, and was still bleeding. It looked a bit scary. She opened the medicine box and first disinfected it with alcohol. She took out the hemostatic powder and spread it evenly on the wound with a small spoon. She touched it carefully and found that although it was deep, the bone was not injured.
The village chief and the branch secretary only saw that the wound with a layer of medicine powder stopped bleeding after a while, and looked at the medicine powder in Shen Anning's hand with some envy.
Of course Shen Anning saw it, not only the two of them, but also many people around were staring at Shen Anning's medicine box.
Shen Anning sat on the chair, took out a pen and a notebook, and said, "This wound looks a bit scary, but it didn't hurt the bone. The bleeding has stopped now, so it's no big deal. However, the wound is too big, so it's better to go to the town hospital to find a doctor to sew two stitches. This way it will heal faster.
"Don't go out to work for the time being. Stay at home for a few days. If you feel unwell, tell me in time. If you have a high fever at night, come home and call me." You haven't got tetanus yet. If you go to the hospital and the doctor gives you a few stitches, it's already good enough.
After recording the patient's name, age, which brigade and which family she was from, Shen An Ning finally understood the whole story. The injured girl was almost twenty years old, the eldest daughter of Wang Cheng's family in the second brigade. She was supposed to go to see a date today, but she wore a new dress made of cloth that her family had saved for a long time. This made several of her cousins unhappy, and they had a quarrel. During the fight, she fell to the ground and scratched her leg with a sharp stone, and she bled a lot immediately.
Shen Anning listened to the discussions of the villagers. When a large family lives together, friction is inevitable. People nowadays have a serious concept of family. Even if more than ten or twenty people live together, they don't separate. Alas.
Seeing several men carrying a door panel in, Shen An Ning said to the patient's mother: "Go to the hospital to get stitches and then bring her to me and give her some hemostatic medicine." Although Shen An Ning knew how to suture, she didn't have a professional suture needle, so it was more convenient to go to the hospital.
Looking at the girl in new clothes, Shen Anning thought that if she wanted to find a partner in the future, she must find one with a simple family. She would not be able to find one with a complicated family.
"Chen Zhiqing, look at the money for the medicine..." Wang Chengjia was too embarrassed to speak. Everyone had seen the effect of the medicine, but she really couldn't afford too much money.
"They are all from the village, give me two cents." Shen Anning didn't ask for more, and used less than one-tenth of a bottle of medicine powder.
When Wang Zhoushan heard the price, he rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "Xiao Shen, the educated youth, this medicine powder..."
Shen Anning interrupted him without thinking. She understood that as the village chief, she had to think about the villagers, but she couldn't reveal her secret. This was the bottom line. The recipe of Yunnan Baiyao would be a state secret in the future, and she couldn't talk nonsense about it. "Uncle Village Chief, the medicine powder is not easy to mix, and the medicinal materials are hard to find. I searched the whole mountain and only found a few bottles of medicine." It's not that she didn't want to give it. The current hemostatic medicine technology is not so advanced. This medicine cannot be leaked. Moreover, part of the money earned by her clinic must be handed over to the village. After all, she gets six work points for free every day.
In any case, Shen Anning's identity as a village doctor has been established today, and she is confident that the villagers will gradually trust her in the future.
Sure enough, after Shen An Ning treated her first patient, more and more people came to see her for treatment. They were all from several nearby villages. They had almost finished their work in the fields and were about to start planting vegetables in their private plots. Taking advantage of this free time, many people came to her with the idea of giving it a try.
As for the people in the village, they don't have any serious illnesses, but they have a lot of minor illnesses, which are mainly caused by malnutrition. After all, now every household can only dare to eat a full meal during the busy farming season, let alone nutrition.
Shen An Ning is very patient with everyone who comes to see a doctor, regardless of age or status. Since Shen An Ning's clinic became busy, a large group of children in the village have been busy. Every morning, they follow Shen An Ning to the mountains to collect firewood, dig wild vegetables, and dig herbs. After staying in the mountains for two hours, they go to the clinic to learn writing and arithmetic with Shen An Ning. Every day, Shen An Ning exchanges candy and snacks for herbs with them, and those who study well are rewarded.
Every day, the most lively place in the village is Shen Anning's courtyard.
