Chapter 19 Seeing

a doctor Fang Dihua had an expression that had nothing to do with this place. She didn't show any nervousness or strangeness. She walked in with a big stride, carrying a large cloth bag on her back. She would look back from time to time to see if Lin Shu could keep up and not get lost. Doctor Yan

was in his early fifties and in good spirits, but his shiny scalp was already exposed on the top of his head. The circle of hair below was very natural and supported the center, stubbornly guarding the sparse top of his head.

His medical skills were learned from his family. He originally opened a clinic in the county. Later, when the public-private partnership was established, they cooperated with each other and began to receive government salaries. Later, he entered the county people's hospital, responsible for the outpatient clinic of traditional Chinese medicine and the purchase of medicinal materials.

At this time, there was a shortage of doctors, and it was normal for one person to do the work of three people.

Doctor Yan is energetic. Even though the hospital is busy, he can still take pulses and prescribe medicines for his neighbors after work.

As soon as he smelled Lin Shu's lithospermum officinale paste, he praised it as "authentic and effective."

His father was proficient in gynecology, and when he was young, he thought it was embarrassing to study gynecology, so he studied internal medicine and pediatrics.

He is good at taking pulses, diagnosis, and prescribing. He can use his commonly used herbs and prescriptions to the fullest, and try to use cheap medicines to treat more diseases.

However, he is not good at acupuncture and medicine making, because memorizing herbs and medical theories consumed all his energy, and he had no time to learn acupuncture points and acupuncture techniques.

Moreover, his eldest brother was good at acupuncture, massage, and trauma, so he did not get involved.

Unfortunately, his eldest brother was accidentally injured and died in those years.

At that time, a quack doctor killed a patient. The patient's family made trouble, and the activists took the opportunity to stir up trouble. As a result, they beat his eldest brother to death without knowing the target.

Because of this incident, Dr. Yan was not so obedient, and he was not very harmonious with the group of people who had caused trouble in the hospital before. However, he was a skilled doctor, and now he was also at the level of hospital director. Leaders from the province and the city also came to him for medical treatment, and others did not dare to do anything to him.

Others might want to directly requisition the Lu family's prescriptions, but they might not necessarily give any benefits. Instead, they would use the principles of dedication and construction to pressure others. However, he was willing to develop a non-staff member of the hospital.

He had the power to purchase medicinal materials and ask professionals to process them.

He did not ask what the prescription was, but only asked Father Lu to find time to come to the county hospital to discuss how to cooperate.

The bookstore manager was familiar with Director Yan and knew a lot about the market. Seeing Fang Dihua was still hesitating, he persuaded her: "Auntie, don't worry. You will definitely earn more work points in the hospital than in the village. The travel expenses, food expenses, and accommodation expenses are all included, and there is also labor fee. It will not be less than one yuan a day."

One yuan a day is equivalent to thirty yuan a month's salary. In the countryside, you can earn only three or four cents a day in work points.

Fang Dihua was clear-headed and she was not easy to fool, so she asked Doctor Yan: "Can you give me food coupons?"

Country people grow crops, but they are short of food, especially when the dried sweet potatoes are eaten up during the lean period, so they have to go hungry or rely on wild vegetables to supplement their food.

Doctor Yan was very happy, "There will definitely be wages and food coupons. Don't worry, the prescription is still yours. The hospital only needs the ointment."

Fang Dihua: "Okay. I'll go back and discuss it with the old man. His legs and feet are not good, and he doesn't like to go far."

She also knew that it would be impossible to get the same commission as doing business in the old society. It would be fine if it was easier than the old man's farming.

Lin Shu looked at the many herbs here. There was even a small patch of chrysanthemums at the base of the wall, and a few sunflowers were also planted.

Lin Shu's eyes lit up, and she immediately told Doctor Yan that she wanted to buy some chrysanthemums and sunflower seeds.

Doctor Yan smiled and said, "It's not worth much. I'll dig two for you."

He dug two medicinal chrysanthemums for Lin Shu and asked her to plant them at home. As for the sunflowers, he directly used a medicine shovel to dig three or two raw seeds and put them in a paper bag for her, "Go back and fan off the dead seeds and pick the ones with full grains."

Lin Shu hurriedly thanked him and did not forget to pave the way for her father-in-law, saying that he planted a lot of mint at home, and often went to the wild to dig herbs to make his own medicine. He also knew how to do acupuncture and scraping.

Doctor Yan was very interested and said, "Go back and tell your father-in-law to come to the county as soon as possible so that I can have a good chat with him." They

were from the same county, so how could he not know Mr. Lu Er? He had lived in the Lu family inn. When he was young, Mr. Lu came to ask my father for advice on acupuncture techniques. He didn't know the man until they had a fight, so of course he wouldn't tell him about embarrassing things.

The two often met when they were young, but later on, when public-private partnerships were banned, they had little contact.

Fang Dihua wanted to leave after talking to him.

She wanted to take Lin Shu to the county supply and marketing cooperative. She brought a few feet of cloth coupons that she had saved at home, hoping that Lin Shu would buy a few feet of cloth to make a summer jacket.

It didn't make sense if she didn't go out. Everyone in the village wore patchwork, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with Lin Shu wearing that.

When she went out, she saw that the good guy and the pretty young wife looked like a beggar.

Although it was clean, the baggy jacket had patches on the shoulders and elbows, and the hem was unstitched and could not be mended. The trousers were also patched at the bottom, and the hems had several layers of patches. The hems had fallen off and were dangling pants.

Of course, she herself was not in good condition, but she could not see it, and felt that as an old woman, it did not matter.

Although the original owner's fabric was taken away, Fang Dihua also felt that the family owed her. The son had been through life and death outside, and the Lu family should treat his wife better.

Lin Shu was thinking about seeing Fang Dihua's eyes, so she asked Doctor Yan about it.

Doctor Yan was very enthusiastic. He asked Fang Dihua to sit down and took a look at her eyelids with a small flashlight. "Hey, sister, your eyes are inflamed. It's not mild."

Fang Dihua: "I look older than you. You should call me sister or sister-in-law."

Doctor Yan readily agreed. "Sister, then you can make an appointment to go to the ophthalmology department. Our hospital has installed machines a few years ago, so we can see."

Fang Dihua grumbled that the registration was expensive. It only cost three or five cents to see a patient at the barefoot doctor's place, and the medicine was only a few cents or ten cents. Here, it costs ten cents to make an appointment!

How can they not steal money!

She said okay, but signaled Lin Shu to leave quickly.

The bookstore manager wanted to talk to Doctor Yan about the lithospermum officinale paste, so he didn't go with them.

After leaving the herbal medicine garden, Fang Dihua strode forward with her cloth bag on her back, her footsteps whirring, as if someone was chasing her to rob her of her money.

Lin Shu stood at the intersection leading to the clinic, looking at Fang Dihua's tall back, and sighed helplessly, "Mom, this way."

Fang Dihua: Tsk, why did this daughter-in-law suddenly become stupid again? Hurry up.

Lin Shu: "Mom, some diseases can be cured by enduring them. For example, inflammation cannot be cured by enduring it, and you must take anti-inflammatory drugs, otherwise a minor illness will turn into a major illness, and you will be blind in the end."

Fang Dihua: "Nonsense, I haven't been blind since I was 8 years old."

Lin Shu: "..." You are so experienced!

She said: "Does your eye hurt so much when you have an attack? Can't you see clearly?"

Fang Dihua said stubbornly: "No, look at me, I am in good health, my ears are not deaf, my eyes are not blurry, my hair is not white, and I am much stronger than you."

Lin Shu: You are really stubborn. Don't you remember how uncomfortable you felt when your eyes hurt and you couldn't stop crying?

She hugged her arms and pouted, tilting her head to look in the direction of the clinic. Anyway, she would not leave unless Fang Dihua went, so she stayed here. Some

family members of patients passing by looked in to see the excitement.

"Look, the young wife is making a fuss."

"So I tell you, don't look for a wife who looks good but is useless. She will make a fuss and throw a tantrum .

It's really annoying." Fang Dihua heard that when she said that about her third daughter-in-law, she would burst into tears and get angry.

She saw that Lin Shu was really stubborn, so she had to retreat. "Okay, okay, go and have a look. You really don't know how expensive fuel and rice are if you don't manage the household. You think a dime is enough. Those black-hearted people won't let you go until you spend three or five yuan."

Lin Shu: "Doctors treat illnesses, not cheat people. They won't pay attention to you when you don't have a patient. If you don't see a doctor when you are sick, isn't that delaying things?"

She took out the posture of negotiating with the difficult and fault-finding Party A in her previous life, and soon Fang Dihua's head was buzzing.

Fang Dihua: "Okay, if you don't know

, you'd think you're the director of the Women's Department." She used to be quiet, but now she's so talkative. She's

so stubborn at such a young age!

Lin Shu: ... I'm doing this for your own good! ?

The old lady is so stubborn!

They registered at the ophthalmology department, where there weren't many people and they didn't need to queue.

A male doctor in his thirties was just sitting there and was bored. When he saw a patient coming, he immediately greeted her warmly, "Auntie, please come in."

Fang Dihua saw this and suspected that he was trying to cheat her out of money.

The salespeople in the supply and marketing cooperatives, the waiters in the hotels, and the nurses in the hospitals in this city all have their eyes on the top of their heads. They always yell at the country people and don't look happy. How could they be so warm?

Something's wrong!

Lin Shu did not give Fang Dihua a chance to withdraw, and pushed her hard to go for examination.

After several instruments took turns to check, the male doctor said: "Auntie, you have had this problem for many years, it has become a chronic inflammation."

Fang Dihua: "..." You are threatening me, saying that I am powerful and will charge a lot of money, right!

Lin Shu: "Yes, it has been many years, doctor, please take a good look at it and try to cure it in one go."

Male doctor: "This kind of chronic inflammation cannot be cured in one go, you have to reduce inflammation and drain pus first, and then do a small operation..."

"It's so strenuous, let's not treat it." Fang Dihua muttered, thinking back, if it can't be cured in one go, you have to go several times, and have an operation?

I heard that the surgery fee is expensive!

Last year, Mrs. Qiu's old man stayed in the hospital for two days and spent more than twenty dollars, but he died within a month after returning! ! !

She didn't want to spend money and get cheated.

The male doctor got up to prescribe medicine for her, and taught her how to wash and how to apply eye ointment, and to come back for a checkup after a while. Anyway, the inflammation had to go down first, and then the operation could be performed depending on the situation.

Lin Shu had poor health in her previous life, and was very good at communicating with doctors. Now she asked the doctor about all the precautions and other aspects.

The male doctor looked at her in surprise. He originally thought that she was just a beautiful young wife from the countryside, but he didn't expect her to be quite knowledgeable. "Are you an educated youth?"

How could an educated youth marry a country man?

Lin Shu smiled and said, "No, no, doctor, you have a good heart. It's not easy for us country people to go to the city. Please prescribe some common medicines for us to keep in stock."

Medicines for diarrhea, fever, inflammation, and pain relief, especially for sore throats.

Sometimes, drinking honeysuckle and chrysanthemum can help with sore throats. If the pain is severe, you have to take medicine, otherwise your tonsils will always be inflamed.

The male doctor was also very patient, unlike some doctors who were impatient and would scold uneducated farmers at will.

Lin Shu: "Doctor, my father-in-law knows how to give injections. He used to give injections to my grandmother's eyes, and now he also gives injections to my mother. Do you think it works?"

The male doctor became very interested when he heard this. After a few questions, he boasted, "Of course it works. Your father-in-law is amazing. A barefoot doctor?"

Lin Shu shook her head. "No, I learned it specifically to take care of my family."

The male doctor: "Then I'll write down a few acupoints for you. Go back and let your father cooperate with the acupuncture. The combination of Chinese and Western medicine will be more effective."

Lin Shu thanked him and went out with a stack of prescriptions to pay and get the medicine. But when she went out

, Fang Dihua was gone. "Mom?" She called out several times, and then saw a big hand reaching out from the corner of the wall and waving at her. "Here, don't shout."

He looked like a thief.

Lin Shu ran over, "Mom, what are you doing?"

Fang Dihua said with a stern face, "We don't want to take the medicine, let's go."

The doctor's registration fee has been paid, so I don't owe him anything. If I don't take the medicine, I won't pay.

Lin Shu: "Mom, we used instruments to check, so we have to pay for the examination."

Nowadays, hospitals first check and treat the disease and then pay, so many people will escape without paying.

Fang Dihua's heart ached, "How much is the examination fee? Pay it, and I won't take the medicine."

Lin Shu: "Mom, we can't be calculating with small money and be confused with big money?"

Fang Dihua: "..."

This daughter-in-law is really amazing, she dares to confront her mother-in-law! Even the second son's family doesn't dare!

Lin Shu: "Mom, it only costs three or five yuan to treat your eyes. If you don't treat a minor illness, it will turn into a serious one, and even fifty yuan won't cure it."

Fang Dihua muttered: "Then don't treat it."

Lin Shu: "It's inconvenient for you to work with one eye. It's easy to dig up the crops when you dig the land. You used to earn ten work points a day, but now you can earn five a day. How many work points will you lose? Maybe more than three or five hundred yuan!"

Fang Dihua: "......!"

She closed her left eye and thought about it. It was inconvenient to dig the land, and she really didn't think about it.

But she still couldn't bear to spend the money, "Don't scare me. You haven't been blind for so many years. He looked at you and you became blind? That's all thanks to him!"

She relied on her experience. Her eyes had not been bad for so many years but she was not blind. Every year when she was busy with farming, her eyes would hurt for ten days or half a month. She would be fine after a few days of rest. It didn't cost any money at all

. When she was a girl, it was more painful when no one gave her injections. After getting married, it was easier to have injections by a man, and it didn't cost any money.

Lin Shu deliberately put on a stern face: "Mom, when my dad comes, people will laugh at him for not treating my eyes?"

Fang Dihua heard that and thought, oh, that won't work. The old man can't lose face.

But she really didn't want to spend money, and said righteously: "What's so embarrassing about not buying medicine? We are poor and can't afford it."

Lin Shu sighed. It's really hard to fool the old lady!

She had to use her trump card, "Mom, your left eye doesn't work well. When you followed my dad to study with Max, you could only use one eye. You said you have two eyes, but you only use one eye. How could Max be happy? Then Max said, come on, you support me with one eye, and I will watch your son with one eye."

Fang Dihua was anxious: "Why is he so stingy?"

Lin Shu: "Mom, sincerity will work."

OK.

Fang Dihua had to spend the money for her son.

The examination fee was 1.5 yuan, and the various medicines added up to more than 2 yuan. This trip cost nearly 4 yuan in total.

This hurt her!

Don't bring the third daughter-in-law to relax in the future!

Let her suffocate at home!

Fang Dihua: The young daughter-in-law is so stubborn!

Lin Shu: The old lady is more stubborn than a donkey!
