Chapter 293 New Members in the Mountain 2
Yike gave them a reassurance. Although those people were wondering why a woman came to say these words to them, they couldn't help but feel excited and happy to hear that they could take home enough money for a year during the New Year.
Yi Ke added: "Every one of you must come here for a physical examination tomorrow. If you are sick, we will help you get treatment."
This sentence made those people coming in from outside even happier. They were hungry every meal and slept in the open air at night. They all had health problems, but they just endured it and dared not say anything.
The next day, Yike set up a table under the big tree outside the door, and placed a homemade medical record book and pen on the table.
Li Xiaoying actively went to notify the people who came yesterday to come for a physical examination. When they heard that they could see the doctor for free, they did not look very happy. They all came to Yi Ke's table nervously.
Yike knew that they were afraid that they would not be allowed to stay if the examination showed that they were in poor health. After they came yesterday, they had such delicious meals and were given clothes to wear. They were reluctant to leave.
Yike first gave them some chicken soup for the soul, so that they would let down their guard and allow her to examine them with peace of mind.
Yi Ke took the pulse of the group of people, registered their identity information, and recorded each person's health condition in the medical record for easy future reference.
When Yi Ke examined a woman, he could tell from her pulse that she had serious problems. Whenever I asked her if she felt unwell anywhere, she would shake her head to indicate that she was fine and not feeling unwell.
As soon as Yi Ke asked a few more questions, the woman hurriedly pulled her hand back, stood up from the stool, knelt down suddenly and was about to kowtow.
Yi Ke stood up quickly, pulled the woman up, and said sternly: "What are you doing? You kowtow for no reason. What kind of attitude is that? This is a new society, not the old times. Kowtow is not allowed. If you kowtow like this, people will say that I am a rich landlord. Are you trying to harm me?"
The woman was at a loss, looking at Yi Ke in fear, then turned to the group of men, looking at them as if asking for help.
"Hello, doctor! She must be asking you for mercy. She can't speak because of her throat, and she's probably afraid that you won't want her." The man who led the group yesterday came over and explained.
After hearing what the man said, the woman nodded continuously, and I was really worried that her thin neck would break.
"Can you understand what I'm saying?" Yi Ke asked.
The woman nodded.
Yike breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was just mute, not deaf.
"Don't worry, I won't drive you out. As long as you are obedient and work hard, I will not abandon you." Yi Ke first comforted her, "But your body is not only too weak, but also sick." After hearing what Yi Ke said, the woman's face showed an anxious expression again, but this time she did not kneel down and kowtow, but just looked at Yi Ke with pleading eyes.
Yi Ke pulled her back to the table and said with a smile, "I need to cure your illness first and get your body in good shape so that you can work. You must take the medicine I prescribed for you on time."
Yike wrote her a prescription, but got stuck when filling in the medical record, so he had to wave to the leading man to come over again.
"What's her name? Where does she live? Do you know?"
"Yes, that man is her husband, and the two boys are also her sons."
Yike followed the direction of the man's finger and saw a man with an anxious look on his face.
She waved to the man to come over, and the man walked over nervously.
"Are you her man?" Yi Ke asked unhappily.
"Yes, she is my wife." The man said with his back bent.
"She can't speak, so why didn't you come over to speak for her just now?" Yi Ke asked seriously.
"I, I don't dare to come over. I'm afraid that if you don't want her, you will want me too." The man said tremblingly with his head lowered.
"She is your wife, and you can't even take care of her, yet you're still afraid that she will drag you down. Such a selfish person like you is really despicable. Stand over there, I will ask someone to send you out of here. I don't want selfish people here." Yi Ke said angrily.
The woman became anxious and kept waving her hands at Yi Ke, then clasped her hands together and bowed repeatedly.
The man held the woman's hand and said to Yi Ke, "Comrade Doctor, I am not a selfish person. We have an agreement. We don't call each other husband and wife outside. As long as one of us can beg for food or find a job, our family will have food to eat."
"Is what he said true?" Yi Ke asked the leading man.
"It's true. We are all like this outside." The leading man nodded.
"Your whole family is out, is there anyone guarding the house?"
"Some people have people at home, elderly or children, and they can't walk far, so they can only stay at home."
"So her whole family is out? Are there any elderly people at home?"
"They were driven out. His parents were biased and took all the relief food, and then drove the whole family out."
Yi Ke sighed inwardly and couldn't help asking again: "Isn't he his family's son? Does his son also dislike him?"
"In fact, his parents only wanted to drive his wife and children away. He could still stay. They mainly wanted to keep him to work. He was willing to leave that home with his wife and children.
I actually admired this man in my heart. He was a great man who never left his woman and children.
So Yike said to the man in a friendly manner: "You are a good person. When the time comes, we will arrange for your family to live together so that it will be convenient for you to take care of each other."
As soon as she finished speaking, the woman fell to her knees again with a thud.
Yike jumped aside in shock. The man hurriedly grabbed the woman and said anxiously, "Wife, the doctor just said that we don't need to kneel. Let's thank her by bowing."
The man and the woman bowed to Yike three times seriously.
"Thank you, doctor! We will work hard and will never be lazy." The man said gratefully.
Yike accepted their bows of thanks, sat back at the table, and took a pen to take notes for them.
"I will write down your family's situation together, and the other family's situation will be the same. And I will arrange rooms for you when the time comes. The family can live together so that it is convenient for them to take care of each other."
Now not only these two people were happy, but some men in the group immediately walked out and stood with their families, all of them with happy expressions on their faces.
"Tell me, what's your wife's name? How old is she? Where is she from?"
The man answered for his wife and took notes.
"What's your name? How old are you? Tell me your children's names and ages." Yi Ke asked in detail and recorded them all.
