215 You Can’t Learn My Medical Skills Anyway
The middle-aged man’s expression changed abruptly when hearing this.
He never thought that such a little girl was the one who contained the plague in Yuanjiang County.
He was also in Yuanjiang County when the plague broke out, but after a diagnosis, he found that he could do nothing about the plague. He hurried back to Mingan Province to avoid getting into trouble.
How could she cure a disease he couldn’t even do anything about?
It must be bragging or impersonation. Zhao Chuchu couldn’t be at this age.
“You are talking nonsense. She is said to be mute and an ugly girl. You must be an impostor who came to Qiaoyi Town specifically to swindle money. Even seriously ill patients are not spared. You’ll get your comeuppance.”
He suppressed the shock in his heart and pointed at Chuchu, cursing indignantly.
Xie Heng looked at the patients. “Are you going to believe in a quack doctor who has no solution for this disease, or do you believe in my wife’s medical skills? Don’t let irrelevant people delay the process if it’s the latter. You will suffer when it’s too late.”
The patients were already waiting to die. Following the inn owner over was the last ray of hope for them.
Now that they heard that Zhao Chuchu was the one who ended the plague in Yuanjiang County, the hope in their hearts was infinitely magnified. After Xie Heng’s words, they certainly would not allow this middle-aged man to keep talking nonsense here and stop them from seeing the good doctor.
“Doctor Jiang, since you don’t have the means to cure us, you shouldn’t stop us from seeking medical treatment!”
“That’s right. The doctor didn’t even say how much silver she would charge us, so how is she a liar?”
“We don’t want to die, and we don’t need you to make decisions for us. Either leave or keep quiet; our lives are not up to you to mind.”
Their tone was already considered euphemistic.
He said that Chuchu was a liar, but those seeking his medical treatment had to go to his pharmacy for costly medicine, at least twice as expensive as other pharmacies. He was making a lot of money from this.
He was now saying this in fear that Zhao Chuchu could cure their diseases, and no one would ever buy medicine at his pharmacy.
“Doctor Jiang, did you hear that?” Chuchu looked at him. “If you continue to talk bullshit, then I will stop trying to be civil.”
Doctor Jiang’s face had already turned red from the patient’s words.
Now he was rechallenged by Chuchu. He gritted his teeth. “I’d like to see how capable you are. Cure them? Huh!”
“It’s useless to see the process. You can’t learn my medical skills anyway.”
Dr. Jiang. “…”
He had been in Qiaoyi Town for so many years and had been greatly respected by people.
Now he had become the one to be expelled because of a little bitch.
Unacceptable! He would never settle for it!
He could not wait to see the patients die on the spot and then report to the officials to have Chuchu arrested.
Chuchu already didn’t bother to pay attention to him.
She asked these people with big bellies to line up one by one and take turns to have their pulse checked.
As she expected, they were all infected with the Blood Bug Virus.
The medicine she prepared also came in handy.
Because she didn’t know when the imperial court would give the stupid order to burn people alive again, she prescribed them western medicine.
These medicines were very effective in treating the Blood Bug Virus, a rapidly developing medical success in later generations.
After taking medicine, the patients felt less uncomfortable and painful.
Although Doctor. Jiang’s medical skills were not good, but at least he had been practicing medicine for many years and had limited experience, so naturally, he could see that Chuchu’s treatment worked for people with big belly disease.
However, some cases were severe and required surgery.
Before that, she talked to the person who was going to have the surgery to understand this matter.
“Rip the belly open? Would I still be alive by then?” That patient’s face turned pale.
“Sure. You have my word on that. But if you don’t choose to do the surgery, you won’t live past this year. Whether you want to do it or not, it is your own choice. I will not force you and respect you,” Chuchu said severely.
Hearing this, Doctor Jiang laughed out loud. “This is the so-called magic doctor? Rip open the belly? I suspect that she is one of those cult believers. She will dig out your hearts to refine drugs…”
Chuchu coldly said, “As a doctor, you are helplessly and incorrigibly ignorant. You’ve disgraced the reputation of the doctor. If you could cure them, Qiaoyi Town would not have become as miserable as it is now! I came to save lives. Instead of humbly asking me for advice, you are full of jealousy.”
“No wonder your medical skills haven’t improved at your age. I bet you’re all focused on how to calculate and manipulate others.
“You, you…”
Chuchu felt that he was too annoying. She straightly went forward and knocked him out with a palm’s smash to stop his ceaseless chatter.
“Or, you ask your family?” She looked at the man she was talking to before.
He didn’t say anything for a long time, but the other woman spoke first. “Doctor, I believe you. As long as you can save me, I can suffer anything. I just want to live. My child is not yet grown.”
Chuchu looked at the woman, “Don’t worry. As long as you recuperate well, you will get better soon.”
The woman nodded and chose to believe Chuchu without hesitation.
Chuchu asked the inn owner to prepare a more spacious good room, sent the person in, and then requested Xie Heng to keep watch outside.
It was impossible to create a sterile environment under pressing circumstances, so she could only carefully sterilize the room before operating on the patient.
The patient was already under anesthesia.
She took out the necessary surgical tools from the space and started to operate on people.
Why didn’t she use her supernatural power?
The supernatural power still had not been able to return to its peak. Now it could still only be used three times a day.
So these three times should be used on the knife.
After operating on the woman and stitching up the wound, she walked out.
The woman’s husband was outside.
“How is my wife? Is she, is she still alive?” The man saw that only Chuchu had walked out. His crimson eyes were filled with despair.
“The effect of the medicine has not yet passed. We will have to wait. But you have to take good care of your wife for the next several days…” Chuchu instructed the matters to be noted after the operation carefully and asked the man to repeat it to confirm that he remembered.
Seeing this, the man who was hesitant earlier also discussed it with his family and agreed to have the surgery.
But Chuchu told them to wait. She had to go to see the beggar first.
The beggar was already in serious condition. If not for Chuchu, he would not survive the night.
Chuchu used her healing powers on him to bring him back to life.
When the beggar was settled, she then performed the second surgery, still in the inn.
During the surgery, those who were not so sick and felt better after taking Chuchu’s medicine returned and shared the news. As a result, more patients came to the inn, hoping that Chuchu could cure their illnesses.
After all, no one wanted to be told they were pregnant with ghosts.
