Siheyuan: Domineering life

Chapter 373 She is risking her life
The car drove for more than half an hour and finally arrived at a small, dilapidated village.

There is an old elm tree at the entrance of the village where several people are hugging each other.

There are already many people gathered under the elm tree, and there is a row of neatly arranged tables, chairs and benches next to it.

The car stopped.

Yu Manshan, the party secretary of Yushu Village, led a group of village cadres to greet them.

"Welcome the leaders to come to our village to carry out free medical assistance activities. On behalf of all the villagers of Yushu Village, I would like to thank you in Manshan."

Yu Manshan shook hands with Yi Qiushui excitedly.

He didn't know who was leading the group, but when he saw Yi Qiushui getting out of the jeep wearing a white coat, he automatically regarded her as the group leader.

"Don't take it seriously. This is what we should do. Let me introduce it to you."

When Yi Qiushui spoke, he glanced at Yang Jun.

When Yang Jun saw this, he shook his head slightly and immediately went to help unload the truck.

He was here to accompany Yi Qiushui today. He didn't want to be in the limelight.

Especially if someone finds out his identity, he will be roasted on the fire. When the time comes, there will be constant troubles.

Yi Qiushui simply introduced the people from the medical team to the village party secretary and others, and then began to prepare to unload the truck.

The village party secretary Yu Manshan wanted to ask for help, but was stopped by Yi Qiushui.

The car was full of medical supplies, and she was afraid that the villagers would accidentally damage them, so she just asked Yu Manshan to lead people to maintain order.

The medical team was notified one day in advance when they came to Yushu Village.

Yu Manshan led people to arrange the workplace early in the morning, and informed the villagers that those who were sick should see a doctor, and those who were not sick should not cause trouble.

There are no rural people who don’t get sick.

They usually eat poorly and work hard in the fields, so it's no wonder they don't get sick.

They either have backaches, headaches, blurred vision, or their stomachs are extremely large, just like those who are pregnant.

Anyway, there are all kinds of weird diseases.

There are ten doctors in total, each responsible for a department. The nurses have set up a guidance desk to ask you generally what diseases they have, and then guide them to the corresponding doctor.

Yi Qiushui was in charge of internal medicine, and there was a long queue at her side.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?"

Yi Qiushui faced a middle-aged woman in her 40s sitting in front of her.

"Doctor, my stomach hurts very much recently. Please help me take a look."

The woman was wearing gray clothes and pants, with a blue scarf on her head. There were several patches on her clothes. Perhaps because of shyness, she looked at the people around her nervously.

People from Yushu Village were not the only ones who came to see the doctor. People from the next village heard that the medical team was here, and hundreds of families gathered around to watch the excitement.

Yi Qiushui stood up and pressed her belly several times through her clothes.

"Does it hurt here?"

"No, go down a little bit."

The middle-aged woman's face turned red and she pointed downwards.

"Does it hurt here?" Yi Qiushui pressed down.

"No, go down."

Yi Qiushui was startled, glanced at the blushing woman, then turned back to the female doctor sitting next to her.

"Dr. Wang, you are a gynecologist. Please help this elder sister take a look."

"Okay, Chief."

Dr. Wang waved the woman over.

The woman hesitated for a moment, and then looked at Yi Qiushui for help.

"Go with confidence, Dr. Wang is more professional in this regard."

With Yi Qiushui's encouragement, the middle-aged woman passed over.

After the woman passed by, Dr. Wang pointed to the temporary tent set up behind him and motioned for her to go in for examination.

But the woman hesitated, shook her head and ran away.

"Don't go..."

When she heard Dr. Wang calling her, the woman ran faster.

It looked like he was frightened.

Dr. Wang shook his head and continued to treat the next patient helplessly.

She has seen this kind of situation many times. There are people like this in every village these days.

They hide their illnesses and avoid medical treatment, are unwilling to see a doctor, and are afraid of being diagnosed with any disease.

Yang Jun stood watching for a while and suddenly felt boring.

Although he didn't understand medicine, he could see that the so-called medical assistance could only solve minor problems and send them away with some medicine. As for serious illnesses, they couldn't see them.

Medical assistance like this only treats the symptoms, not the root cause.

If minor illnesses can be treated, we can treat them; if they cannot be cured, let them go to a big hospital.

As soon as they heard that they were going to a big hospital for treatment, the fellow villagers shook their heads and left.

Large hospitals are not something they can afford, and the consultation fee is easily 30 to [-] yuan. Their annual income is not that much, let alone medical treatment.

Yang Jun shook his head and couldn't stand it anymore.

This feeling of powerlessness made him breathless.

However, he was also relieved at the same time. At least the batch of medicines he had obtained had some effect and could somewhat comfort his pinched heart.

After sitting in the car for a while, I got really bored, so I got out and walked around the village.

Yushu Village is very big, with only thirteen production teams.

Each production team has sixty households and more than 400 people, and the entire village has about four to five thousand people.

As time went by, more and more villagers came to see a doctor. When they heard that there were free medicines, everyone put down their work and came over.

The radio in the village broadcasts from time to time, everyone is off today, no production tasks will be arranged, and everyone is warned to come and see a doctor.

The members of the medical team were sitting in the clinic, treating patients, and even Ma Juzi and the others helped maintain order. Only Yang Jun was idle.

He was going to go for a stroll in the village. When passing by the fields at the entrance of the village, he saw a girl digging the ground with a hoe. She was working very hard, but judging from her unfamiliar movements, she didn't seem like a rural person.

Looking carefully, it turned out that he was not from the countryside.

People in rural areas concentrate on their work when they work, but that girl is different from others. As soon as dirt splashes on her body, she immediately stops and pats the dirt on her body.

Yang Jun guessed at once that this girl must be an educated youth.However, Yu Manshan has been announcing on the radio that there are no production tasks today, asking everyone to come to see the doctor. Why doesn't this girl come?

Maybe it's because this girl is from the city and goes back every ten days and a half. She must look down on this kind of medical team.

Yang Jun didn't think much and continued walking towards the village.

The scenery along the way shocked him greatly.

Although he was also a rural person in his previous life and knew that life in the countryside was hard, it was only when he was actually there that he was shocked by the dilapidated scene.

This can no longer be described as 'poor'.

The ultimate goal of these farmers who dig into the soil is not to fill their stomachs, but to try their best to survive.

The villages are full of mud-walled mud houses, slogans written in white and gray can be seen everywhere, and the yellow-brown scenery of despair makes people feel very depressed.

At this time, a woman wearing a blue scarf came towards me. She looked at a hoe on her shoulder, and she seemed to be preparing to work in the fields.

Yang Jun met her face to face and felt that she looked familiar.

If you think about it carefully, isn't this woman the same person who saw a doctor in Yi Qiushui just now?
She said she had a stomachache just now, so why did she think she was going to work in the fields even though she was sick?

The woman was walking when she suddenly paused and bent down.

Yang Jun was stunned and stood there in a daze.

I thought she had a stomachache again.

Looking carefully, the woman looked in pain, covering her lower abdomen with her right hand and looking down at the soles of her feet.

Yang Jun followed her gaze and was immediately startled.

There was a pool of blood on the soles of her feet, and there was a bloody, fleshy thing on the ground.

Yang Jun realized something immediately.

This rural lady had a miscarriage.

"Sister, you should go home and lie down."

"I'll call a doctor for you right away."

The elder sister slowed down, straightened up, kicked the bloody thing on the ground, kicked it into the gutter on the side of the road, then waved her hands and said,

"No, I still have to work in the fields."

After saying that, without waiting for Yang Jun to speak, she left with the hoe on her shoulder.

"Sister, if you can't do this, the root of the disease will fall into your body."

Yang Jun chased after him and persuaded him.

He didn't expect that people in rural areas were so careless about their health.

Most people have to stay at home for at least a month after a miscarriage.

But this eldest sister was really risking her life. She knew she had a miscarriage and still insisted on working in the fields. She didn't take her body seriously.

"It's okay, don't worry about me, just go about your business."

When the elder sister saw that Yang Jun had been chasing him, her face turned red and she trotted away.

Yang Jun chased her for a few steps, but when he saw that he couldn't persuade her, he stopped trying to persuade her.

He also figured it out.

I tried to persuade her to do anything, she could lie down for a month, but the actual situation at home did not allow her to do this, and there were still several mouths waiting for food.

Yang Jun stood there, looking helplessly at the eldest sister's back. His thoughts were flying and his mind was confused. For the first time, he felt his own insignificance. No matter how powerful he was, he could not change the status quo.

After this incident, Yang Jun felt very heavy. He no longer wanted to wander around and turned around to return to the entrance of the village.

When passing by the field, he noticed that the girl who was digging the field shrugged her shoulders and wiped away tears from time to time.

He wanted to go over and take a look, but stopped.

Every family has a difficult book to recite, and everyone has bad things to do.

Maybe this girl is just like the elder sister, and has some difficulties that she has to do.

After he thought about it clearly, he turned around and went back.

After returning to the medical team, I went back to the car to smoke.

After smoking two cigarettes, his mood became heavier.

For the first time he felt powerless.

At that moment, he wanted to impulsively take out supplies from the space workers to help them.

But there are too many poor people in the world, how many can he help?

Plug in the key, start the car and drive out of Yushu Village.

Today, he promised Yi Qiushui and the others to eat braised pork. He had to go out for a walk and take out the meat.

More than an hour later, Yang Jun came back.

As soon as he stopped the car, he called Ma Juzi over.

"Juzi, we have braised pork for lunch, please take care of it quickly."

"Really, brother, that's great."

When Ma Juzi heard that there was braised pork for lunch, he grinned behind his ears.

Without Yang Jun's instructions, he directly picked up the more than 20 kilograms of pork from the car.

He took a three-piece pot from the truck and asked He Dazhuang to put the pot on the table.

When He Dazhuang saw this, he was also happy from ear to ear.

He took off his coat and lifted the pot with two stones.

After setting up the pot, he spontaneously went to find firewood, leaving Ma Juzi alone to handle the pork.

Ma Juzi's knife skills were good. He cleaned the hair off the pork in three strokes. He went to a fellow villager's house and brought a bucket of water to start cooking the meat.

"Comrade, do you eat meat for lunch?"

"Yes."

Ma Juzi looked up happily and saw that it was Yu Manshan, so he said, "Why don't Secretary Yu leave a piece for lunch?"

"No, I'm just asking casually."

"I...we have prepared meals for you, but I didn't expect you to prepare meat."

Yu Manshan was smoking a dry tobacco pot, his mouth was wrapped around it, and the light in the copper pot was breathing in sync with his Adam's apple. It was obvious that he was also greedy.
