The villagers also gathered around, offering their advice and persuasion.
"Auntie, the scholar is acting very strangely. He might have really run into some evil spirit. We should quickly find someone to take a look at him."
"Indeed, look at how crazy the scholar was just now, jumping up and down, shouting and yelling, it was absolutely terrifying."
"That's right, look at him now, his eyes are lifeless, he's staring blankly, like an idiot, he's definitely possessed by evil spirits."
"If this isn't treated quickly, what will become of us? Auntie, you really need to get someone to take a look at it right away. Don't be stingy with the money."
"I heard there's a shaman in our neighboring village who's really good at curing these strange illnesses. He's incredibly effective. Should we send someone to invite him over right away?"
"Shrine shamanism probably won't work. I think it's better to go to a temple and pray for an exorcism talisman or something. Maybe that will work."
"In my opinion, it would be better to invite a Taoist priest to perform a ritual to exorcise the evil spirits, and then invite a shaman to come as well. Doing it both ways will surely cure the problem."
"Yes, yes, yes, that's a great idea!"
"Alright, you're all wrong. My son-in-law is neither possessed by evil spirits nor ghosts." Liu Dashan squeezed his way forward from the crowd.
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Chen hurriedly asked Liu Dashan, "Father-in-law, what's wrong with Zhancai?"
Chen Qingqing, standing in the crowd, was taken aback. Had he noticed something?
If he cures her poison, she won't be able to punish the arrogant villain.
Just then, Liu Dashan frowned and said, "In my opinion, Zhan Cai must have been bitten by a dog and contracted rabies."
"Oh dear, my dear in-law, don't talk nonsense! My Zhancai is a scholar, how could he possibly run into a pack of mad dogs for no reason? You're just spouting rubbish!"
"You make it sound like a mad dog won't bite a scholar." Liu Dashan looked sorrowful and shook his head repeatedly. "If you really have rabies, there's no cure. You'd better start preparing for your funeral!"
Upon hearing Liu Dashan's words, Liu Fengjiao, who was standing to the side, objected, "Father, how can you talk like that? Zhancai is just behaving a little strangely, why are you making funeral arrangements!"
“My silly girl, you don’t know, being bitten by a rabid dog is a death sentence. You’ve forgotten, there used to be a guy in our village named Wang Laoba who was bitten by a rabid dog and died within three days.”
Liu Fengjiao said irritably with a sullen face, "Father, I know better than you whether Zhancai has been bitten by a dog or not, so don't worry about it."
"What? He's never been bitten by a dog?" Liu Dashan was stunned for a moment, then quickly added, "You know he's never been bitten by a dog, but do you know if he's ever stepped in dog poop?"
Liu Fengjiao stomped her foot in anger, "Dad, are you ever going to stop? How did this get involved with dog poop again?"
“You silly child, you don’t understand anything. I’m not talking to you.” Liu Dashan looked at Old Lady Chen. “Mother-in-law, regardless of whether Zhancai has been bitten by a dog or not, I think he probably has rabies. If you don’t believe me, go find a doctor to take a look and you’ll know.”
"If anything happens to Zhancai, it'll be the end of me!" Old Mrs. Chen was so anxious that she lost her composure, jumping up and down on the spot, shouting to Chen Zhanliang beside her, "Second son, don't just stand there like an idiot, hurry up and go get a doctor!"
Stepping in dog poop? Rabies? Listening to their conversation, Chen Qingqing almost burst out laughing.
Chen Zhancai really has a terrible teammate; he's going to get what's coming to him today.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Chen Zhanliang turned to leave, but was called back by Da Bao beside him, "Dad, where are you going to find a doctor? My sister Qingqing knows how to cure illnesses!"
"Right, right, look at my brain, how could I forget about that?" Chen Zhanliang said, looking at Old Madam Chen, "Mother, Qing'er knows how to cure illnesses, why don't you quickly have her take a look at Zhancai to see what's wrong?"
"Her?" Old Mrs. Chen glanced at Chen Qingqing sideways, then waved her hand at Chen Zhanliang, "Don't make things worse, hurry up and go get the doctor."
“Mother, saving lives is the priority now, not the time for you to throw a tantrum.”
“Yes, Auntie, Zhanliang is right. Saving lives is the priority. If something goes wrong, it will be too late to regret it. You should quickly ask Qingya to take a look!” Wu Baoan also advised.
Old Mrs. Chen began to have doubts. Last winter, whenever anyone in the village had a minor illness or ailment, it was this brat who cured them.
Even a blind cat catching a dead mouse isn't that lucky.
Furthermore, Chen Zhanliang's leg bone was broken, and he originally thought he would be crippled, but unexpectedly, that brat healed him too.
Based on these facts, it can be concluded that her medical skills are indeed quite good.
But this brat has always been at odds with the third son's family. If she were to treat our precious son, what if she had a guilty conscience and sabotaged things or didn't do her best to treat him? If something unexpected happened, it would be too late to regret it...
In a flash, Old Mrs. Chen thoroughly analyzed the pros and cons and decided that she could not use Chen Qingqing.
“Security guard, I know you’re worried about Zhan Cai, but this is a matter of life and death. We should go to the next village and ask Doctor Wang for help. After all, he’s older and more experienced.”
Wu Baoan shook his head helplessly, "Alright, Zhancai is your son, I support your decision."
Grandma Chen breathed a sigh of relief. If Wu Baoan had insisted that the brat treat her precious son, she really wouldn't have been able to refuse.
Seeing Chen Zhanliang standing still, Old Lady Chen was furious. She scolded him with a stern face, "You good-for-nothing, what are you still standing here for? Go to the next village and fetch a doctor."
Chen Zhanliang was furious. Why send him running errands when there were highly skilled doctors available?
