Chapter 698: Miraculous Doctor Li Aiguo, Milk Powder
"I won't survive more than two days?!"
The middle-aged man was startled at first, frowned, and then looked at Li Aiguo, puzzled: "No, the doctor said I don't have any disease. I also think I don't have any disease..."
Seeing that the middle-aged man was about to be exposed, Zhou Dacui hurried forward and grabbed the middle-aged man's arm.
"Old Chen, what nonsense are you talking about? Those doctors are all quacks. After you were injured, you had many diseases in your body, but they didn't find out what they were."
"Cui, I only have two days to live now?" The middle-aged man wanted to cry but had no tears.
He knew what Zhou Dacui was thinking. Wasn't it just to let him stay in the hospital for a while longer?
He doesn't mind, but he can't risk his life.
The middle-aged man looked strong and sturdy, but he was a timid person. He was almost crying after being scared.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhou Dacui glared at him and warned him, and only then did the middle-aged man calm down.
"Old Chen, leave this matter to me, don't worry about it."
Zhou Dacui felt that the timing of the young doctor's appearance was rather suspicious.
Besides, there is no such magical medical skill as to be able to tell that someone is seriously ill just by looking at them.
"I'm sick." The middle-aged man wanted to say something, but when he saw Zhou Dacui's ugly face, he immediately shut his mouth.
Zhou Dacui rolled up her sleeves, put her hands behind her back, walked around Li Aiguo, and asked slowly, "Doctor, you said my man won't live more than two days. Do you have any evidence?"
Li Aiguo straightened the collar of his white coat: "The patient's pulse is deep, thin and weak, almost imperceptible when lightly pressed, and only felt when pressed hard, as weak as a thread.
The pulse beats slowly and intermittently, with uneven intervals, like a candle in the wind, swaying and about to fall. For a patient like this, it is lucky to survive for two days!"
Li Aiguo has read a lot of medical books over the years. He may not be able to practice medicine and save lives, but he can definitely fool people by showing off some professional terms.
Zhou Dacui: "We don't understand these things either. Who knows if you are fooling us?"
Li Aiguo pointed at the middle-aged man and said, "Stamp your right foot."
The middle-aged man was already scared now, and stomped hard a few times.
Li Aiguo: "Are your feet numb?"
The middle-aged man's face changed drastically: "My feet are really numb, what's going on?"
Li Aiguo sighed: "There's no hope. Your blood circulation is blocked."
The middle-aged man was terrified when he heard this: "Doctor, please save him quickly"
Before he could stand up, Zhou Dacui pushed him down: "Leave it to me!"
Middle-aged man: "I am sick."
Zhou Dacui: "Old Chen, are you disobeying me?"
Seeing Zhou Dacui’s stern face, the middle-aged man could only keep a gloomy face and remain silent.
Zhou Dacui breathed a sigh of relief and looked Li Aiguo up and down: "Little doctor, you are so young, your medical skills are not very good, right? This is a matter of life and death, you must not speak nonsense here."
Li Aiguo laughed, took out a gold pen from his jacket pocket, and said arrogantly: "See, this is the gold pen my master gave me."
The golden pen sparkled even in the dim room, and Zhou Dacui's eyes were fixed on it.
"Who is your master?"
"Speaking of my master, he is a great figure. Old Master Su, known as the Holy Doctor of Lingshu, has saved countless lives in his life. He is a living Bodhisattva. The medical community has to give a thumbs up when they mention the old man's name."
The Venerable Doctor Huang Shuhua was watching Li Aiguo "making trouble" nearby, and she couldn't help but be startled when she heard the name.
The name sounds like a great doctor.
Coupled with the gold pen, Li Aiguo's identity as the second generation of a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner is confirmed.
Huang Shuhua began to wonder: Could it be that Li Aiguo is really the descendant of an old Chinese doctor?
With the old doctor's endorsement, Li Aiguo's authority rose. The middle-aged man's face became even uglier. He pulled Zhou Dacui's arm and whispered, "Wife, I'm dying. Don't be reluctant to spend the money."
Zhou Dacui was also anxious at this time. She shook off the middle-aged man's arm and asked, "Young doctor, we didn't come to see you. Why did you come to us on your own? Are you so kind?"
Li Aiguo walked to the window, stood with his hands behind his back, facing the rustling autumn wind, and said without turning his head:
"The purpose of medicine is to save lives, not to pursue fame and fortune. I practice medicine with a kind heart, hoping that there will be no more illness in the world."
"Life and death are determined by fate, but as a doctor, I must do my best to fight against death and snatch back every ounce of life."
He was full of vigor and spoke in a deep voice, and with his doctor's robe fluttering in the wind, he looked like a hermit.
If Zhou Dacui had not determined that Li Aiguo was a big liar, she would have thought that she had met a miracle doctor.
"Can you tell me how to cure my man's illness?"
Li Aiguo said: "The human body is like the universe, the meridians are like the stars, and the qi and blood flow like the stars. Only by understanding the principles can you understand the wonders of medicine."
Zhou Dacui frowned: "Be more specific."
Li Aiguo said: "Diseases are like puzzles, and herbs are like keys. Only by skillfully combining them can we open the door to health."
Zhou Dacui: "Speak to the point."
Li Aiguo turned around and said, "Are you pretending to be stupid? Buying the key is free."
Zhou Dacui: "Aren't you a miracle doctor?"
Li Aiguo: "A miracle doctor doesn't need to eat? I do have medicine, but it's called Lingxiao Yulu Pill.
It can repair damaged meridians, bones and internal organs, and revitalize necrotic tissues;
It can also nourish the soul, enhance mental strength, and eliminate mental fatigue and pain.
After taking this pill, the body will be strengthened in all aspects, as if reborn. Not only can health be restored, but also physical fitness and vitality beyond ordinary people can be obtained. "
Zhou Dacui: "Stop, stop, stop. Just tell me straight. How much?"
Li Aiguo: "This kind of magic medicine depends on chance. If there is no fate, I will not sell the medicine to you even if you offer 2000 yuan. Your husband is a destined person, so I will only charge you yuan. Don't get me wrong, what I sell is not medicine, but fate."
Isn't two thousand dollars robbery?
Zhou Dacui was ready to kick out this big liar who was talking nonsense.
The middle-aged man couldn't bear it any longer. He stood up, pushed Zhou Dacui away, ran to Li Aiguo, and grabbed his arm: "Godly doctor, please sell me the medicine quickly. I don't want to die. It's just two thousand yuan. My family has money!"
Li Aiguo looked at him with compassionate eyes and said slowly: "Disease comes like a mountain falling, and it goes away like pulling a thread. Don't be anxious or impatient. Believe in my skillful hands, I will definitely restore your health."
The middle-aged man nodded: "Yes, yes, yes, I am so seriously ill that I can't be cured by just taking one pill. I still have a house at home, I can sell it and give you all the money."
"Remember, what I'm selling you is not medicine, but fate!" Li Aiguo shook off the middle-aged man's hand and raised his head 45 degrees: "In my eyes, there is no terminal illness, only undiscovered hope."
The middle-aged man applauded: "Yes, yes, it's fate. You are a miracle doctor."
Zhou Dacui also realized the seriousness of the problem at this time.
If we let this guy continue to deceive people, we will lose everything.
"Doctor, we are all cured and we are discharged from the hospital!"
She gritted her teeth, grabbed the middle-aged man's arm and ran out of the ward.
The man disappeared at the door, and a man's voice could be heard in the corridor: "Da Cui, I know you don't want to spend money, but this is a miracle doctor."
"Shut up, you idiot!"
Huang Shuhua was in a daze throughout the whole process, and only reacted when the footsteps of the two people disappeared.
She looked outside, then at Li Aiguo, and said in surprise: "Brother Aiguo, are you really a miracle doctor?"
"What do you think?" Li Aiguo looked down at his white coat. As expected, when he went out, his identity was given by himself.
Li Aiguo felt that he seemed to have a talent for selling treasury pills. If he didn't drive the train anymore, he could go to the overpass to sell Dali Pills.
Huang Shuhua knew that Li Aiguo could not be a miracle doctor, but she was still a little confused: "Why did the man's feet go numb just now?"
"If you stamp your feet, they will become numb."
Huang Shuhua: “.”
At this time, a voice came from outside the door.
"Who stole my coat?"
"Let's go. If you don't leave now, people will think you're a thief."
Li Aiguo then remembered that there was another victim. He took off his coat and threw it on the bed in the ward. He took Huang Shuhua out of the ward and walked into the corridor where he saw an old doctor rummaging through the office.
Li Aiguo shouted inside: "I just saw a coat in Ward 209. I wonder if it's yours?"
"Hey, thank you comrade, you are a good man."
The old doctor ran out of the office in a panic and ran towards the ward.
Huang Shuhua almost laughed out loud. This train driver was really interesting.
When the two arrived at the door of the obstetrics and gynecology department, Chen Xueru had already done a pregnancy check-up accompanied by her sister-in-law and Liang Ladi.
"Brother Aiguo, all indicators are normal. The doctor just told me to supplement nutrition during pregnancy."
Li Aiguo took the list and took a look at it, wondering how to get some nutritional supplements.
The eldest sister-in-law had to go home to take care of the children, while Liang Ladi had to take a few children to the suburbs to pick wild vegetables.
After the two of them left, Huang Shuhua suggested that she host lunch at her home for Li Aiguo and Chen Xueru.
"Dad and Mom complained about you last time, saying that you haven't been home for a long time. They happen to be off work today, so let's have a good family get together."
The railway runs 24 hours a day, so the employees cannot spend the weekends like ordinary people, and it is often the case that family members have different rest times.
Li Aiguo hadn't seen Zhou Tiehu and Wang Cui'e for a while, so he agreed.
Huang Shuhua rode her bicycle back to prepare the meal, while Li Aiguo took Chen Xueru to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy two kilograms of snacks and a Daqianmen rice cake before coming to Zhou's house.
Zhou Tiehu still looked the same, except that his face was a little darker than before, all due to the coal ash.
Wang Cui'e, with her usual loud voice, took the snacks and cigarettes and started complaining.
"You are such a jerk, you even bring things back to your own home. If you do this again next time, I will throw you out!"
After complaining about Li Aiguo, Wang Cui'e's expression changed immediately when she saw Chen Xueru. She held Chen Xueru and helped her to the sofa.
"Xue Ru, you are newly pregnant, so don't do any heavy work by yourself. Leave it to Aiguo. If Aiguo is not at home, I will ask Zhou Ke to help you."
"Mom, it's okay. The doctor said that pregnant women should also exercise more so that they can give birth more easily."
When Chen Xueru was young, her mother passed away. Wang Cui'e loved Chen Xueru very much and treated her as her own daughter, so Chen Xueru always called Wang Cui'e "mother".
Wang Cui'e and Huang Shuhua brought their children to chat with Chen Xueru, while Zhou Tiehu called Li Aiguo to the turntable in the corridor.
"I heard from some old friends that at the end of the year, we on the railway have also started to reduce food rations. It's okay for us rough guys, but your wife is still pregnant and can't be deprived of fine food. You have to be patriotic and make preparations early."
Li Aiguo felt warm in his heart and said, "Don't worry, uncle, I have already exchanged some food."
"How can a little bit be enough? At least you need to exchange it for pounds. Do you have enough food coupons? If not, take some from me first."
"That's enough, uncle."
The Zhou family is a family that makes a living on the railway and they live a more comfortable life than others.
But now Zhou Ke also has a son, and Li Aiguo has a way to get food, so naturally he cannot ask for food.
"You, just like before, don't like asking for help. One word can make people laugh, one word can make people jump; asking people to do things is all about words. You have to understand this principle."
Zhou Tiehu thought that Li Aiguo was too embarrassed to save his face, so after giving him a few instructions, he took out a milk powder ticket from his pocket.
"This is a spare one from a friend of mine, and he gave it to me. You can use it."
Holding the thin milk powder ticket, Li Aiguo felt like it weighed a thousand pounds.
In those days, milk powder was not sold to the public, only milk distribution certificates were available for infants, two bottles a day, each bottle half a pound.
For children over one year old, one bottle is provided, which is then mixed with "milk substitute powder" (a mixture of soybean powder, rice powder and a small amount of milk powder).
Milk powder ticket and baby sugar ticket are issued one each month. With the ticket, one can buy 1 catty of milk powder and 2 taels of brown sugar.
The only nutritional supplement for pregnant women and women of childbearing age is soybean sprouts.
Needless to say, this milk powder ticket must have been exchanged by Zhou Tiehu from someone else. It required at least ten kilograms of fine grain tickets, and he had to beg others for it.
"Uncle, thank you." Li Aiguo is a reserved man, and he was a little moved at this moment.
"What nonsense are you talking about, kid? Your father died early, so I have to take care of you."
Zhou Tiehu was also a carefree person. He patted Li Aiguo on the shoulder and turned to go into the house.
"Zhou Ke, it's almost noon, why don't you get up and cook for your sister-in-law!"
Zhou Tiehu's roar and Zhou Ke's aggrieved voice were heard from inside the house.
The air is filled with a strong breath of life.
For a person, family and friends are like a solid anchor. With it, you can hold on even when the waves are big.
Li Aiguo pinched the milk powder ticket, put it in his pocket, and strode in: "Zhou Ke, I like to eat braised pork, remember to stew it until it is a little soft."
Zhou Kegang put on an apron: "."
******
Milk powder coupons have an expiration date, usually one month, and will be scrapped after the expiration date.
In the afternoon, Li Aiguo took Chen Xueru away from Zhou's house and rode their bicycles straight to the city dairy supply station.
There is only one kind of milk powder in the supply station - Red Star brand milk powder.
Produced by the state-owned Anda Milk Powder Factory in Heilongjiang Province.
This factory was very famous in those days. It was one of the supporting projects of the 156 key construction projects in the country's first five-year plan, and it produced the first bag of milk powder in the country.
The milk powder is packed in an iron can with a golden five-pointed star painted on it.
"This is too expensive. A small can costs two dollars and twenty cents, which is enough for a family to eat and drink for a week." After asking about the price, Miss Chen couldn't help smacking her lips.
"You don't plan to buy it? Why don't you sell the milk powder tickets to me?" A young man with shifty eyes came over.
He was wearing a suede jacket that was fashionable at the time, big-toed leather shoes on his feet, and a canvas bag around his neck.
Li Aiguo waved his hand at him: "No need."
"Hey, hey, hey, the price I offered is too high. How about three dollars? You can ask around. There is no higher price than this." The young man still didn't give up.
"Brother, do you want me to call the security officer?"
The salesperson also turned cold and pointed at the young man and said, "Chen Ermao, if you dare to disturb customers again, don't blame us for kicking you out."
"Sister, you are my real sister, I will leave now, is that not okay?" The young man left in a huff. He turned around and ran to the door and pulled the arm of a middle-aged man: "Brother, can you sell me some milk powder tickets?"
Wow, there are scalpers these days.
When Chen Xueru heard that the milk powder ticket could be sold for three yuan, she made up her mind and took out two yuan and twenty cents from her pocket and handed it to the salesperson.
After leaving the supply station with the tin can in her arms, Chen Xueru grimaced in pain: "I have never eaten something so expensive in my life."
"When our lives are better in the future, we can drink milk powder every day." Li Aiguo pushed his bicycle out from the parking lot, stretched his long legs over the bicycle handlebars, and sat on the seat.
Chen Xueru sat in the back seat with her butt tilted and said with a smile: "You just think about those irrelevant things."
Li Aiguo did not explain, but rode his bicycle slowly on the old-fashioned streets.
Yes, how can people today imagine that in a few decades, people will be able to live a good life of eating meat and drinking milk every day?
When I rode my bike back home, He Yushui was already waiting at the door with a basket.
Chen Xueru now regards picking wild vegetables as a form of exercise, and Li Aiguo does not stop her.
Seeing the two of them coming back, He Yushui couldn't wait: "Sister-in-law, let's go early. I found a good place yesterday. There are a lot of wild vegetables there."
"You wait a moment."
Chen Xueru got off her bicycle and was about to follow He Yushui to pick wild vegetables, but Li Aiguo stopped them, went into the house and opened the milk powder can.
Looking at the yellow milk powder in the can, He Yushui couldn't help swallowing his saliva: "Brother Aiguo, is this milk powder?"
"Do you want to try it?" While asking, Li Aiguo had already taken two bowls and scooped out two spoonfuls of milk powder into the bowls.
He then took out a large enamel mug, poured tea into it, and placed it aside to cool.
He Yushui was eager to taste the milk powder, and when he saw Li Aiguo's strange behavior, he wondered, "Brother Aiguo, why don't you just use hot water to scald the milk powder?"
"If the water temperature is too hot, the nutrients in the milk powder will easily be lost."
"Is that so?!" He Yushui understood and immediately took a fan to fan the enamel pot.
Li Aiguo: "."
He thought the girl was quite smart.
After a while, the hot water turned into warm water. Li Aiguo picked up the enamel pot, poured the warm water into two bowls containing milk powder, and stirred it with a spoon for a while.
"Okay, how about you guys try it?"
He Yushui picked up the enamel pot, carefully brought it close to her mouth, and gently blew away the hot air.
She took a small sip first, and at that moment, her eyes suddenly lit up.
A rich milky aroma instantly spread in her mouth, the taste was mellow and sweet.
"Wow, this milk powder is so delicious! It tastes almost the same as White Rabbit milk candy." He Yushui exclaimed.
Li Aiguo forgot that White Rabbit milk candy is also made from real milk powder these days.
Chen Xueru was an adult after all, and was much more reserved than He Yushui. After finishing the milk powder, she rinsed the bowl clean with warm water and drank it all in one gulp.
This little bit of Xitangzi is worth several cents. We can't waste it.
The two of them drank the milk powder until they were full, and then they carried the basket and the sickle and left the house together.
Li Aiguo took a rare break and picked up a book to continue working.
Time passed unknowingly and it was evening. Chen Xueru and He Yushui returned from the suburbs, bringing back two large baskets of wild vegetables.
Li Aiguo set up the stove and prepared to boil the wild vegetables.
Watering wild vegetables can remove the bitterness, and they can be stored for a longer time after being dried.
As the fire was burning, the sound of a broken gong was heard outside.
"Attention, everyone, we will have a meeting in the middle courtyard tonight. Today's meeting is related to the harmony in our courtyard, and no one can take leave."
Chen Xueru frowned: "Nothing seems to have happened recently, why does Yi Zhonghai suddenly want to hold a meeting?"
"Never mind him, let's just go and join in the fun after dinner." Li Aiguo said.
"I think Yi Zhonghai is going to play some tricks again. No, I have to go find out."
Ever since He Yushui was almost forced to hang himself by Yi Zhonghai, he has developed psychological stress. Whenever he hears that Yi Zhonghai is holding a meeting, he thinks that he is up to no good.
Li Aiguo stood up and lifted the lid of the pot. The wild vegetables in the pot were bubbling along with the boiling water. He picked up long chopsticks and stirred them twice to prevent the bottom of the pot from getting burnt.
Whether cooking or frying wild vegetables, the heat is very important. If you use too much, the vegetables will be burnt easily, while if you use too little, they will be too raw.
Li Aiguo picked up the firewood methodically and slowly started a fire.
After dinner, before Li Aiguo had time to go out, He Yushui came running over again.
As soon as she entered the room, she blinked and whispered, "Brother Aiguo, I heard that Yi Zhonghai wants to deal with you."
"Really?" Li Aiguo asked as he and Chen Xueru hung wild vegetables on wooden sticks.
"Aren't you in a hurry?"
"Let the wind blow from all directions, I will remain unmoved!"
Li Aiguo wiped his hands with a towel, then took Chen Xueru and He Yushui out of the house.
This time, Yi Zhonghai put in a lot of effort and notified the residents door to door.
When Li Aiguo arrived at the central courtyard, the small courtyard was crowded with people.
Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and the third uncle sat on the long bench as usual. Xu Jixiang and Xu Damao stood beside them.
Seeing that everyone was present, the official-fan Liu Haizhong wanted to make a few opening remarks as he did in the past, but Yi Zhonghai could no longer hold back.
He reached out to stop Liu Haizhong, and regardless of Liu Haizhong's resentful expression, he said to the residents in a cold voice: "Recently, some very bad phenomena have occurred in our compound.
Someone is deliberately plotting against the neighbors behind their backs.
Xu Damao was the victim. His wife was pregnant, but someone was whispering behind her back that the child was not Xu Damao's.
If we don't find this bad apple and criticize it severely, the atmosphere in our compound will definitely be corrupted!"
Most of the residents understood the whole story and nodded in agreement with Yi Zhonghai's opinion.
But they all felt strange, why Yi Zhonghai kept staring at Li Aiguo.
