The gentle hillside was full of people.
Everyone felt relieved when they saw the five large bags of grain being carried down.
Li Mingqing sat there and watched the river water flowing below mixed with heavy yellow soil.
This place is not particularly far from Lijia Village, but it rains the heaviest here.
Most of the village is built with thick walls made of thick loess.
Although it is made of mud, it is made of a lot of straw, so it is strong and cannot be washed away by water.
However, even if the mud house does not collapse, there will be a lot of silt after the flood recedes.
Doctor Zhou said: "According to the current situation, we can go back in two days."
Doctor Ren said, "Let's give the antipyretics we brought with us to the village chief and the team leader when we leave."
Li Mingqing nodded in agreement without any objection.
However, he saw that many people were wet all over, so it would be better for them to drink some ginger soup.
He said, "Doctor Zhou, we brought half a basket of ginger. Let the village chief make some ginger soup for everyone."
"Didn't you buy this?"
"Yes, I bought it. This is a special case. I originally wanted to buy ginger to take home."
At that time, I bought half a basket of ginger because it was fresh.
Dr. Zhou and Dr. Ren laughed at him, not expecting it to be useful.
The two suspected that he had deliberately bought the ginger out of consideration for the victims.
"Don't look at me like that, you two. Do you want to get beaten?"
"Doctor Li, you're amazing. You always want to be ahead of the curve. I'd love to learn from you."
"Yeah, we didn't expect that."
It was their first time in the disaster area and their first time seeing it, so they had no idea about this level. They just saw the injured people or the people being rescued from the water.
Seeing this, Li Mingqing said nothing more.
I'm too lazy to tell them, and they won't believe it even if I tell them.
The captain saw so much ginger and asked, "What is this?"
"Make some ginger soup to keep you from catching a cold."
The villagers were deeply moved when they heard it.
He praised Li Mingqing repeatedly, and the compliments came out of his mouth as if they were free.
——
The village chief got a big iron pot from somewhere, and several people moved stones to build a stove.
Fortunately, the rainwater flowing down from the mountain is clear.
Otherwise you won’t even be able to drink clean water.
The women carefully picked out the rice stalks from the rice with a half-broken ladle, rinsed them twice with water, and then put them in the pot to cook rice porridge.
In another small pot, ginger soup is cooking.
Many young girls looked at Li Mingqing from time to time because he was so young.
"I don't know if he has a family yet."
"Probably not. He looks so young."
"Go ask your father. He's the village chief, so he'll definitely know."
"I'm not going."
"If you don't go, I'll go ask. Maybe we can really make it."
"Don't be so foolish."
Several little girls gathered together and chattered non-stop.
But they were just talking.
He is a young, promising doctor with excellent medical skills, so I dare not even think about it.
Another thing is that the little girl was too embarrassed to go and talk to Li Mingqing in person in the village.
But the uncle and aunt are not so thin-skinned.
Two aunts came over.
"Doctor Li, you look so young and unmarried, right? My daughter is about the same age as you."
Dr. Zhou and Dr. Ren were laughing beside them.
But they knew that Li Mingqing even had a child.
"Auntie, my daughter is over one year old."
"Really? You're getting married so young. I thought you didn't have a family yet."
"I'm married."
"Oh, that's great. I have a successful career and a happy family."
"You've come all this time and have been working non-stop until now. You even found food for us. Thank you so much."
It is really not easy to get through the fast-flowing water at the foot of the mountain.
Li Mingqing and the other two were brought here by soldiers sitting on a wooden door board.
The village chief and the team leader came over.
"We've set up a tent for you. Call us if you have any problems at night."
Li Mingqing and the other two looked in the direction of the village chief's finger.
Doctor Zhou whispered, "It's really hard for them. They haven't even had a tent themselves, but they set up a tent for us."
"Yeah, I guess all the shelter is used up on this tent."
"Since they've set up a tent, let's stay here. It's a kind gesture from them after all."
Why not live if you can live comfortably?
He has always been generous with the kindness he receives and accepts it with great ease.
Dr. Ren and Dr. Zhou thought he would refuse.
Two days later,
The water at the foot of the mountain has receded a lot, and the entire village has emerged from the water.
Many houses collapsed.
Fortunately, the flood receded.
The village chief instructed, "Doctor Li, you two shouldn't go down the mountain together. Let's go clear the main road."
The foot of the mountain is all mud.
Li Mingqing sat bored on a big rock and watched the villagers coming down the mountain.
The county magistrate and people from the county hospital in the local county town at the foot of the mountain have arrived.
Doctor Zhou looked at the man in the white coat at the foot of the mountain and said, "The doctor from their county hospital is here. We can go back now."
Li Mingqing, who was originally watching ants moving, immediately raised his head when he heard this.
The local medical team did arrive.
He really missed his wife and children after being out for two days.
The county magistrate and the doctor from the county hospital came over and saw Li Mingqing and took the lead in extending his hand to shake hands.
The county magistrate said, "You must be Doctor Li."
"Yes, I am. Now that someone's here, let's leave and go back to the hospital."
