For this free clinic, Wen Guoer went to the Military General Hospital specifically to communicate with Director Hao.
"Doctor Wen has a great idea! If it's just a free clinic, it should be easy to handle if the hospital sends two doctors to assist!" Dean Hao lowered his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
"But the full-staff physical examination you mentioned is not so easy to do! It involves a lot of expenses and follow-up tests, etc.! I'm afraid it will be difficult to pass the review."
Wen Guoer also understood Dean Hao's difficulties. In today's physical examinations, many parts still require manual analysis and testing, unlike in later generations, where all machines are automated, which is not only fast but also highly accurate.
"I understand your considerations! Our family compound has only about a hundred households, so at most, there are only about four hundred family members!
I don't have much to do recently, so I took care of all the testing.
I also have my own testing methods, so I don't need to use the hospital's supplies! Director, you only need to send two or three capable doctors to be in charge of the inspection. Is this arrangement okay?"
Dean Hao heard this and thought, what's there to consider! It's just a matter of sending some people, and the hospital can also gain a good reputation from it!
He readily agreed! He even called the leadership of Tang Zhan's unit in the name of the Military General Hospital and immediately arranged for a free doctor to come to her.
With the support of leaders from both sides, the free medical consultation was quickly arranged.
Wen Guoer had prepared enough test strips and disposable utensils in the space in advance.
On this day, I heard that people from the Military General Hospital had come to give physical examinations to all family members, and the compound was very lively.
"I didn't expect that Deputy Colonel Tang's wife actually invited a doctor from the military hospital to treat us!"
"It's more than just medical treatment. I heard they'll also give us what's called, a 'physical examination'! That's a benefit only for leaders."
"This time, we are all benefiting from the help of Deputy Colonel Tang's wife!"
......
The sisters-in-law in the compound, remembering Wen Guoer's kindness and following Sister Wei's instructions, lined up in an orderly manner, waiting to be seen by the doctor.
Knowing that it was Wen Guoer's suggestion, Dr. Sun and Han Wenying volunteered to participate in the free clinic. They not only diagnosed and prescribed medicine for everyone, but also offered a lot of advice, creating a peaceful atmosphere.
"Oh my! That old doctor is amazing! He understood my condition clearly after just taking my pulse."
"But it's not! They've already diagnosed my old problem from childbirth! It's said that the doctors who came this time have all treated high-ranking officials."
The sisters-in-law who had finished their consultations were talking as they walked back.
"Deputy Colonel Tang's wife is really capable. My son's blood vessels are so thin, and she pressed the needle correctly with one needle. Although it took some blood, the doctor said that she can find out the reason why the children are not growing tall, so that we can know what to supplement them with."
"And that piece of paper. I only had to prick my finger and it told me my blood type. Now I know my blood type..."
"Next!" Wen Guoer finished drawing blood, put the test tube away, and shouted with her head down.
"Why do we need to draw blood again? If we draw more blood, how much food will we need to eat to make up for it!" Sun Guihua's voice came, Wen Guoer frowned and raised her head.
"If you don't want to be checked, move aside. Next one!" Wen Guoer was too lazy to pay attention to her and shouted to the next person!
"What do you mean next? The kids and I haven't had our checkups yet!" Sun Guihua nudged the person behind her and squinted at Wen Guoer. "You've drawn so much blood from us, shouldn't you give my son some White Rabbit candies to comfort him?"
Wen Guoer smiled speechlessly: "They call you mom, not me mom, why should I coax them?"
"How can you talk like that? Do you want to snatch my son from me? That depends on whether you are destined to have a son!"
Wen Guoer couldn't help but admire Sun Guihua's thinking and put away the tools in her hand:
"I don't think you need a checkup. Your illness is here!" Wen Guoer pointed at her head and squinted her eyes. "You should go to the hospital for an X-ray to see if there's anything missing!"
The sisters-in-law who were queuing behind had already been annoyed by Sun Guihua's noise. When they heard this, they couldn't help laughing.
Deputy Regimental Director Tang’s wife, this is clearly a curse, saying Sun Guihua is stupid!
"You! You!" Sun Guihua felt humiliated when she heard the laughter around her. Seeing so many people standing on Wen Guoer's side, she couldn't get angry. She pulled her son out of the group, still shouting arrogantly:
"We won't even investigate! I don't know what someone's intentions are! They're using the name of an inspection to draw blood from everyone!"
Without Sun Guihua's interference, the inspection went smoothly! Within two days, all the family members in the hospital had been examined.
Wen Guoer collected everyone's blood samples into the space and tested them using the instruments inside.
During this test, Wen Guoer discovered a very serious problem!
High levels of gossypol were detected in most blood samples.
This is a toxin that can cause irreversible damage to the reproductive system, causing premature menopause in women and even testicular atrophy and azoospermia in men.
It can also cause mental fatigue, weakness in the limbs, gastrointestinal discomfort, and trigger some chronic diseases.
Why is there such a high level of gossypol? Wen Guoer was surprised!
Then I thought, gossypol is extracted from cottonseed kernels, which were mostly used to extract oil at that time. If the processing technology was not in place, it is very likely that the current situation would have occurred.
If this is true, the sisters-in-law eat and live with the men in the family, so we know without any examination that this thing should also be present in the men's blood.
Fortunately, nowadays, most families have small stakes and are not involved in much. But in the long run, it is also a problem that cannot be ignored.
Wen Guoer didn't know how much people knew about the harm of cotton seeds at that time.
But judging from the blood test report, there must be improperly processed cottonseed oil on the market.
If this continues, it will probably lead to an unmanageable situation!
If you want to cut the Gordian knot quickly, you must get action from above.
Wen Guo didn't delay and left a note for Tang Zhan before leaving the family compound.
She walked to a deserted corner, took out the jeep, and drove towards the city! She had to tell her grandfather and father about the consequences of this incident and let them report it to the higher-ups.
"How could it be so serious?" Su Guosheng was shocked after hearing this! Now it's not just their family compound that is consuming cottonseed oil, even the supply and marketing cooperatives are supplying it to the outside world.
As for whether the processing procedures are legal, whether there is anyone supervising them, and whether there are people selling them privately on the black market, it’s hard to say!
The old man solemnly walked around the room twice and looked at the guard: "Prepare the car! This matter must be reported to the higher-ups and resolved as soon as possible!"
After he finished speaking, the old man looked at his granddaughter with a sharp gaze: "Guo'er, do you have a solution to this problem?"
