Dressed as a peasant girl, full of happiness

Chapter 149 When did you learn it?

After the Red Guards left again, Wei Yuchen waited for a while, making sure that the red armbands would not come back, before leaving the space.

He also brought out his original bicycle and the medicine he had bought.

Wei Yuchen rode his bike directly to the clinic.

When she arrived at the clinic, she saw Wei Yikui tidying up the medicine cabinet. She greeted her father and then went to untie the rope that secured the medicine box to the back seat of the bicycle.

When Wei Yikui saw his daughter coming back, he said, "I'm going home for a while. Call me if you need anything."

The home Wei Yikui mentioned is the backyard of the small clinic.

Wei Yuchen quickly took down the medicine box, moved it into the house, went to the medicine shelf and began to arrange the medicines into categories.

Suddenly there was a commotion outside the clinic:

"Xiao Liu, hurry up, hurry up, your grandfather's eyes are rolling back!"

"Doctor Wei, it's not good, it's not good."

When Wei Yuchen heard the shouts of the villagers outside, his heart skipped a beat and he quickly looked outside, just in time to see a few people about to enter the door.

They were carrying a stretcher made of a door panel. On the stretcher, a man was lying on the door panel. His face was pale, his eyes were closed, and one of his legs was twisted at an angle that was impossible for a normal person. But he didn't make a sound and was obviously fainted.

There was also a woman standing next to him, crying. She was the patient's family member.

Everyone saw Wei Yuchen standing in the courtyard and asked loudly, "Doctor Wei, where is your father? Dahan broke his leg when he went up the mountain today. Let him take a look!"

Because Wei Yuchen often helps her father, she sometimes also treats minor illnesses such as colds and fevers. Everyone calls her Doctor Wei when they see her.

"My father is at home. Find someone to call my father. The rest of you, quickly carry the patient into the house."

Wei Yuchen directed several people in an orderly manner.

Upon hearing this, several men hurriedly carried the person into the house.

Wei Yuchen went forward to check the situation and saw a large patch of blood under the patient's knee. The blood mixed with clothes was tightly stuck to the calf. It looked like the patient's pants had to be cut open to see the specific injuries.

She picked up the scissors and was about to start cutting, but then stopped.

I remember that fabrics were very expensive nowadays, and everyone's clothes were worn by adults and then by children. Then the eldest child wore them, and then the second child wore them, and then the third child wore them, until the patches fell off and could no longer be mended. Even so, the clothes would not be thrown away, but washed and starched, and made into jackets and soles for shoes.

She was afraid that if she didn't explain the situation now, she would meet someone who would make trouble and ask her to pay for the fabric later. So, she looked at the woman who was obviously a family member and said briefly:

"Aunt Dahan, I need to check Uncle Dahan's injuries. I need to cut open his pants first. Do you think it's okay?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, then calmed down, sobbed and nodded, saying, "No problem, Chenchen, go ahead and cut it."

Then the woman seemed to turn on the speaking switch and began to chatter:

“This morning, Dahan felt a little feverish, but my child was clamoring to eat meat, so he went up the mountain, saying that he wanted to kill a pheasant for the child... Woohoo... If I had known, I would never let him go down the mountain... Woohoo... That poor child, why is he so greedy? He only cares about eating meat, and the result is... Woohoo... Chenchen, my Dahan won’t be lame, will he... Woohoo... If he is lame, how are we going to live... Woohoo..."

Wei Yuchen listened to the woman crying and did not stop her. She knew that some people would use crying to relieve their inner pressure, ease their inner pain, and calm their inner anxiety.

"Let me take a look at the situation first, aunt."

Although Dahan's wife kept nagging beside her, her hand movements were not affected at all.

After carefully disinfecting her hands, she put on medical gloves and used scissors to neatly cut open the patient's calf clothing, fully exposing the patient's wound...

Then she picked up the hydrogen peroxide and saline solution and began to clean the wound skillfully. After the cleansing, she used iodine to disinfect. After all the operations, her head was slightly sweaty.

Wei Yuchen often helps her father, so everyone is not surprised by her actions.

After cleaning the wound, she remembered the woman's words, took off her gloves, took out a thermometer from the medicine cabinet, and motioned the patient to hold it under her armpit. At first, she saw the patient's flushed face and thought the patient was in pain. Now it seems that the patient may have started to have a fever a long time ago.

He quickly asked someone to bring cold water and a towel to wipe the patient and cool him down physically.

The patient was suddenly touched on the forehead by a cold towel, and he shuddered, coughed, and woke up all of a sudden. As soon as he woke up, he began to groan loudly and softly.

Wei Yuchen asked him to bear the pain and bend his legs. Seeing that he could still stretch and retract his legs freely, he knew that he only hurt his skin and flesh, and no bones or muscles were injured.

So he told Dahan's wife, "Sister-in-law, Dahan's leg is fine, it's just a flesh injury. There won't be any sequelae."

After hearing this, the silly wife let out a long sigh and kept chanting "Amitabha" and "Thank God".

Next, while waiting for the patient's temperature to be taken, Wei Yuchen took out a medical needle from the medical box and a piece of catgut. Then, she took out the thermometer from the patient's armpit and found that the temperature was 38.6 degrees, which was in the range of moderate fever, so she said to the woman:

"This wound is too long and too deep. It needs stitches first and then medication. But Dahan has a fever and can't be anesthetized. We have to let him hold on for a while."

"How can you hold on?" asked the men nearby.

Wei Yuchen didn't explain. He took out a clean towel from the basin rack in the room, wrapped it around his waist, and handed it to the woman, saying, "Let him bite it."

Then he said to the others, “Hold him down. Don’t let him move while I’m stitching up the wound.

Several men rushed forward and held down Dahan's body.

Wei Yuchen made all the arrangements, and after everyone took their positions, he began to suture the wounds.

"Humph!"

When Wei Yuchen started to sew up the wound, he groaned and tried to struggle, so everyone increased the force with which they held down his body.

Dahan looked at Wei Yuchen with an apologetic look on his face, then clenched his teeth and began to grit his teeth to endure the pain.

In order to alleviate the patient's pain, Wei Yuchen also speeded up the suturing process.

Dahan's wife watched Wei Yuchen's fingers flying as she sewed up Dahan's wound. She was originally crying and could not help but stare in amazement. She thought to herself, "When did this Chen girl become so skilled in medicine?"

The suturing work was completed very quickly. Although the people present were laymen, they were also deeply shocked by Tian Miao's hand speed. They couldn't help but secretly say, "What a pity!" As for what exactly was a pity, they themselves didn't know. They just felt sorry for Wei Yuchen.

Maybe it was a pity that such a good girl like Wei Yuchen had her engagement broken off, maybe it was a pity that their small mountain village might not be able to retain talented people, or maybe it was both.

Anyway, I feel it’s a pity.

Wei Yuchen had no idea what everyone was thinking; she was just concentrating on treating the wound that had already been sutured.

She first applied some medicine on the wound, then carefully bandaged it with gauze and tied a beautiful bow.

Finally, she took the fever medicine from the medicine cabinet and fed it to the patient, and said to the Dahan wife:

"Sister-in-law, you'd better go to the commune hospital to get a tetanus shot." Seeing the two of them looking hesitant, Wei Yuchen advised, "Sister-in-law, money is important, but life is more important. If you get tetanus, it can be fatal."

Others also advised:

"What Doctor Xiao Wei said is right. A child in the neighboring village was bitten by a dog, and the doctor advised him to get tetanus. The old lady didn't listen, and the child got tetanus and died."

“Never lose the big for the small.”

When Dahan and his wife heard that someone had died, they were frightened and nodded in agreement.

Dahan's wife had to take Dahan to the commune hospital, and was afraid that she didn't have enough money, so she kept a record of the money. Then she begged a few people to carry Dahan to the commune hospital.

From beginning to end, no one looked at Wei Yikui who was standing next to them.

After everyone left, Wei Yikui looked at his daughter and said with a smile, "My daughter, your stitching skills are more skillful than your father's. When did you learn it?
