"Who is Chen Fu?"
Zhang Nong and the others asked in confusion.
Chen Minxue said, "Chen Fu is not someone to be trifled with. He's a local boss in our county town, with extensive connections and influence. Moreover, he has ties with Liu Mingde!"
This piqued Wan Yunting's curiosity. Chen Minxue continued, "Furthermore, it's rumored that Chen Fu's behind-the-scenes influence is the reason Liu Mingde can monopolize the drug supply channel. I don't know the exact methods, but it's definitely through some means!"
"I understand."
Wan Yunting got it and said, "The reason the drug prices in their village haven't increased is due to the relationship between Chen Fu and Liu Mingde."
"Yes."
Chen Minxue nodded and said, "This Chenjia Village is very large and they are extremely united. All the young people in the village work for Chen Fu. Last time, due to land issues with the neighboring village, Chen Fu led the village youths, and they directly injured many people from the other village."
"But in the end, Chen Fu occupied the land, and those injured people from the neighboring village were the ones arrested and detained for a few days."
"But satirically, this year their village was also awarded the honor of a beautiful cultural village for their cultural building project. All this is inseparable from Chen Fu!"
Wan Yunting nodded and smiled, "In that case, this Chen Fu is quite remarkable."
At this moment, a young man rushed in anxiously, shouting, "Zi Yao, Zi Yao, go to Aunt Yuehong's house, something has happened to her!"
"What? What happened to Aunt Yuehong?" Chen Ziyao, who was inside giving an IV drip to a villager with a cold, turned and asked.
"Ai ya, I don't know. She keeps screaming about stomach pain, saying she's dying, and can't even get out of bed." the villager said anxiously.
Wan Yunting and Chen Minxue heard this and exchanged glances…
Chen Ziyao immediately instructed his daughter to stay at home. After tidying up his medical kit, he waved and said, "Let's go, take me to see Aunt Yuehong…"
"Dr. Chen, we'll come with you."
Hearing about a serious patient, Wan Yunting and the others naturally couldn't stand by. They wanted to go along, perhaps to help.
"Alright."
Chen Ziyao certainly didn't refuse. Wan Yunting, Gu Luotang, and the others followed him as they left the clinic and headed down a cement road into the village…
They walked quickly and soon arrived at a two-story Western-style house belonging to a villager. The main door was open. As soon as Aunt Yuehong's daughter-in-law saw Chen Ziyao leading Wan Yunting, Chen Minxue, and the others in, she immediately shouted, "Zi Yao, quick, come and see my mother, her stomach is killing her."
"Alright, alright, take me in…"
Chen Ziyao, carrying his medical kit, followed Aunt Yuehong's daughter-in-law into the living room on the first floor and then into a room. He saw a woman in her fifties lying on the bed, clutching her stomach, sweating profusely from the pain, and crying out in agony, "Pain..."
"Aunt Yuehong, I'm here."
Chen Ziyao quickly went up and sat by the bed, looking at Aunt Yuehong, and asked, "Aunt Yuehong, is your stomach uncomfortable?"
"Yes, it hurts…"
Aunt Yuehong clutched her stomach, repeatedly crying out in pain…
Wan Yunting, Chen Minxue, Gu Luotang, and Qi Miaomiao also entered the room. They saw Chen Ziyao gently remove Aunt Yuehong's hands from her stomach and press on her abdomen. The moment he touched it, Aunt Yuehong cried out, "Aiyo, it hurts…"
"How about here?"
"Pain, pain…" Aunt Yuehong trembled all over, screaming incessantly.
Chen Ziyao frowned, turned to Aunt Yuehong's daughter-in-law, and asked, "Aunt Yuehong, did she eat something unclean?"
"No, we only ate a little bit of beans for lunch, we didn't eat anything else." Aunt Yuehong's daughter-in-law replied.
But Chen Ziyao said, "But looking at her condition, she must have eaten something unclean. Why don't we call for a car and send Aunt Yuehong to the town hospital for a check-up?"
"Pain…"
At this moment, Aunt Yuehong was writhing in pain on the bed, sweating profusely and her face contorted with agony.
"Ai ya, Zi Yao, the town hospital is so far away. Look how much pain my mother is in. Why don't you give her some medicine to relieve the pain first?" Aunt Yuehong's daughter-in-law said anxiously.
Chen Ziyao stood up, his face full of worry and helplessness, "But I'm just a village doctor. I can't understand what's happening in Aunt Yuehong's condition, so how dare I casually prescribe medication?"
"Then what should we do…"
Aunt Yuehong's daughter-in-law was pacing around in distress.
"Dr. Chen, let us take a look at her," Wan Yunting said at this moment.
Chen Ziyao looked back at them and suddenly became excited, "Yes, yes, Vice Chairman Wan, quickly examine Aunt Yuehong. You are all TCM doctors, perhaps you have a solution…"
Aunt Yuehong's daughter-in-law also quickly chimed in, "Then hurry up and examine my mother…"
Wan Yunting didn't think much of it and was about to go forward, but Huang Jingshan was one step ahead, "Let me!"
Wan Yunting and Gu Luotang were taken aback. They watched as Huang Jingshan had already gone up, sat by the bedside, and was taking Aunt Yuehong's pulse. Therefore, Wan Yunting and the others naturally said nothing more. Although Huang Jingshan usually appeared a bit flippant, his medical skills were exceptionally solid.
"It's food poisoning!"
After the diagnosis, Huang Jingshan turned around and said confidently to everyone.
In fact, from Aunt Yuehong's symptoms, Wan Yunting had already roughly deduced it was food poisoning. He asked, "You said she ate beans for lunch?"
"Yes, just a little bit of beans." Aunt Yuehong's daughter-in-law replied.
Wan Yunting said, "Can you show me?"
"Certainly, it's in the kitchen. I'll take you," Aunt Yuehong's daughter-in-law nodded.
Meanwhile, Huang Jingshan asked Chen Ziyao, "Do you have raw licorice here?"
"Raw licorice?"
Chen Ziyao was stunned, seemingly not recognizing what raw licorice was.
"Use Norfloxacin tablets," Peng Yushan said.
Huang Jingshan heard this and nodded, "That's fine too. Let's try giving her Norfloxacin tablets first. If it doesn't work, we'll think of other solutions."
"Okay."
Wan Yunting nodded, and Chen Ziyao said, "I have Norfloxacin tablets, I brought them with me."
As he spoke, he opened his medical kit and took out a box of Norfloxacin tablets. Huang Jingshan took them, opened the box, took out two Norfloxacin tablets, and gave them to Aunt Yuehong.
Seeing this, Wan Yunting asked Huang Jingshan to stay and observe Aunt Yuehong's symptoms. He then went out with Gu Luotang and the others, followed Aunt Yuehong's daughter-in-law to their kitchen, opened the lid of the dining table, and looked at a plate of stir-fried beans. Wan Yunting picked them up to examine them. Gu Luotang beside him said, "These beans are very old."
"Mm, old beans are poisonous, and they weren't cooked thoroughly." Wan Yunting nodded. Now he was certain about the cause of Aunt Yuehong's poisoning.
"Ah, these beans are poisonous?"
Aunt Yuehong's daughter-in-law was shocked and said with lingering fear, "Fortunately, I found these beans old and didn't eat them, otherwise I would have been poisoned too…"
Wan Yunting turned to look at her. The daughter-in-law of Aunt Yuehong, under his gaze, suddenly became a little unnatural, turned her head, and asked, "Why are these old beans poisonous? Is it because of pesticides?"
"No."
Gu Luotang explained, "When beans get old, they produce a type of saponin and lectin. Therefore, old beans must not be eaten. Even if eaten, they must be cooked thoroughly."
Aunt Yuehong's daughter-in-law suddenly understood, "So that's how it is…"
"Ai ya, why is she spitting blood…?"
At this moment, Chen Ziyao's shout came from inside the house, startling Wan Yunting and Gu Luotang who were outside.
"Aiyo, I say, do you even know how to treat patients!"
Noisy voices came from inside the room, "Aunt Yuehong is spitting blood…"
Immediately, Aunt Yuehong's daughter-in-law rushed in. Wan Yunting and Gu Luotang also reacted and hurried to follow. They saw a pool of fresh blood and vomit on the ground in front of the bed, which instantly startled Gu Luotang and Qi Miaomiao.
"Heavens, Mom, Mom, what's wrong with you? You were fine, why are you spitting blood…"
Aunt Yuehong's daughter-in-law rushed forward, held Aunt Yuehong, who was lying on the bed looking uncomfortable with blood streaks at the corner of her mouth, and cried out anxiously.
Huang Jingshan and Peng Yushan stood aside with expressions of astonishment. Wan Yunting quickly asked, "Jingshan, what's going on?"
