Since 1981 Health School
Chapter 4 Seeking a doctor for paronychia
The silly elder sister is gnashing her teeth, trying her best to carry the brick on her back. Only by completing the quota every day can she get 50 cents.
She wanted to earn more money, and wanted to buy some pork supplements for Chen Qi.
Although the pork in the commune does not require meat tickets, it costs more than 1 yuan per catty, not to mention that when school starts in September, all three younger siblings will need to spend money to go to school.
The silly elder sister was anxious.
Her parents were gone, and her father held her hand before he passed away, telling her to take good care of her younger siblings, and she agreed with her own words.
As long as she promises something, no matter how hard or difficult it is, she will definitely do it.
Standing on it, Chen Hua couldn't bear it any longer, and ran to the silly elder sister crying, "Elder sister, woo woo, elder sister~~~~"
Chen Qi and Chen Shu also followed behind, running towards their silly elder sister together.
The silly elder sister looked up and saw her younger brother and sister came to see her, holding crock pots in their hands, apparently to deliver food to her. This made her very happy, and felt that her family cared about her very much, so she slowly Put down the bricks on your back.
"Why are you here? It's such a hot day, go back quickly."
Chen Hua immediately hugged the silly elder sister: "Elder sister, I don't want you to carry bricks, let's go home, I don't eat meat, I don't want to eat meat, woo woo woo~~~"
Chen Shu also burst into tears: "Sister, don't memorize bricks anymore, I like sweet potatoes, so I want to eat sweet potatoes every day."
The silly elder sister hugged the heads of her sister and younger brother, and said with a smile: "Silly, the elder sister is doing well here, isn't it just working hard, look, the elder sister has a lot of strength."
Chen Qi gritted his teeth, walked to the front of the red brick, squatted down and prepared to carry it on his back.
The silly elder sister was startled when she saw it: "Second brother, what are you doing? How can you let us intellectuals do this kind of rough work? The eldest sister will recite it. Put it down and be careful."
Chen Qi refused to admit defeat: "Sister, if you can recite, so can I. I can't let you suffer alone. We are all part of the Chen family."
After finishing speaking, Chen Qi had already hung the strap made of hemp rope on his shoulder, gritted his teeth and held his breath, "Get up! Ah~~~~~"
With a loud roar, the 60 red bricks moved, but before Chen Qi could stand up, because the bricks were too heavy, his body fell straight back, and his buttocks sat on the ground all at once.
He couldn't even get rid of gravity.
The workers in the nearby brick yard laughed when they saw it, "The second child of the Chen family, why, can't even carry 60 bricks?"
The jokes from the workers made Chen Qi blush a lot. He didn't believe this, so he squatted down for the second time, ready to try again.
The silly elder sister was even more anxious:
"Second brother, don't listen to them. You are a scholar, and you use paper and pens. You can't compare with us big bastards. Put it down quickly, and the eldest sister will recite it. You will be easily injured like this."
"It's okay, big sister. I didn't master the method just now. Now that I have mastered it, try again. One, two, three times!!!"
In the end, things didn't work out as expected. Not only did Chen Qi fail to pick up the bricks, but he lost his balance and fell backwards. The red bricks spilled out and several pieces were broken.
The silly elder sister and Chen Shu and Chen Hua both nervously helped him up: "I told you not to carry it, it's all right now, are you not injured?"
After Chen Qi stood up, he turned his head and saw the broken bricks all over the floor, not to mention the depression in his heart, he was not even as good as a woman.
"Sister, I, I just want to help you..."
The silly elder sister patted the dust off Chen Qi's body, and said with a smile: "Okay, elder sister knows your kindness, now go home obediently."
Chen Hua handed over the earthen pot in his hand, "Sister, let's eat first."
"Okay, let's eat first, and I'll take a break too."
The owner of the brick yard saw from a distance the four brothers and sisters of the Chen family enjoying the shade and chatting happily under the shade of a tree. His heart was filled with emotion, and he said to the people next to him:
"See, the Chen family's second, third, and fourth children are all seeds of education. Don't look at them now, they will definitely be successful in the future. When work is over, pay the stupid big sister an extra dime."
After lunch, the silly elder sister continued to work in the brick yard, so Chen Qi and the others had no choice but to return home.
Haidong Province, as a national pilot, started the household contract responsibility system in 1981, but the mountains are different from the plains, and the fields allocated to each household are too small, basically enough for rations.
Therefore, the income from the silly big sister's back brick is the only cash income of the Chen family at present.
No matter how hot or tiring it is, the silly elder sister has no choice at all. Township enterprises have not yet emerged these days, and she can't find a place to work if she wants to.
When Chen Qi's three brothers and sisters returned home, they were all depressed, and no one was feeling well. At this time, a man's voice suddenly came from the door:
"Is the second child of the Chen family here?"
Chen Qi looked back, and saw a strange middle-aged man standing at the door, carefully asking questions.
"I am Chen Qi, who are you, uncle?"
"Oh, I'm from Liandong Village next door. I heard that you are a technical secondary school student in the health school. Could you please help me look at my fingers? I can't stand the pain. The doctor in the commune asked me to go to the Keqiao Town Health Center. Surgery, that is too far..."
When Chen Qi heard that he came to see a doctor, he habitually asked, "What's wrong with your finger?"
The uncle stretched out his hand, and saw that the tip of his right middle finger was swollen like a small carrot.
Chen Qi understood at a glance: "Hey, uncle, you have paronychia. It has suppurated now. You need a minor operation right away, otherwise the infection will spread easily."
Acute suppurative paronychia is often caused by staphylococcal infection, mostly caused by local injuries, such as inadvertent manicure, trauma, nail biting, and periungual barbs.
When the uncle heard this, he quickly laughed and said:
"A technical secondary school student is a technical secondary school student. I can see my illness at a glance. If you are dissatisfied, I can't sleep at night because of the pain. I can't go to work in the fields. The work at home is delayed. It all depends on my wife. Alone, I just wanted to ask you to help me after I found out that you are a top student in the health school."
Technical secondary school students, it sounds like a curse now, but in 1981, it was definitely praising you.
Chen Qi thought that if he was idle, he would be idle, and he should help his fellow villagers. In this way, if he is not at home, everyone will take care of his eldest sister and younger siblings in exchange for her face.
In addition, he also wanted to try his golden finger to see if it worked.
"Okay, uncle, you sit here, I'll get the tools, and I'll help you solve this problem now."
The surgery for paronychia is very simple. In his previous life, the community hospital or secondary hospital surgery could handle minor outpatient surgery, but for the mountain people in 1981, it was a huge problem.
The barefoot doctors in the village can't treat it, and the doctors in the commune health center can't handle it, so they can only go to the central town health center or a big hospital in the city.
But starting from the mountains, it takes dozens of miles of mountain roads, at least 5 hours one way, even for old farmers who are accustomed to mountain roads, this is a huge test.
So this middle-aged man would rather come to Xia Ze Village to try his luck first, and then go to Keqiao Town if he can't.
