Chapter 8 Wu Baocai

"Auntie, I can give you acupuncture on my own, but it really can't be done by others. It's not that I'm afraid that others won't be able to cure you or anything. The main reason is that if someone reports you, now you will be fined at least [-] yuan for each report. It's not worth it." Zhang Lan knew what Aunt Zhao meant, but there were still some things that needed to be prevented.

"What are you saying? Who would report you if you treat people?" Aunt Zhao looked a little unnatural.

"It's not about reporting on medical treatment. You also know the situation in our village. People are talkative. Someone might poke you, and you don't know when you might have offended someone."

The village where Zhang Lan lives is called Qingshan Village, which is surrounded by mountains and rivers.To the north of the village is the main road leading in and out of the nearby mountains. A medium-sized reservoir was built at the foot of the mountain. Before the construction of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, it supplied water to the entire urban area.Since the construction of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project a few years ago, water supply to urban areas has been basically no longer needed.In the past few years, the water in the reservoir has been used for irrigation in the nearby Qingshan Village every autumn.People in the village who used to work outside the village also began to contract land for planting because of the convenient access to water.

The land in Qingshan Village is easily irrigated and the terrain is flat.In recent years, the country has promoted mountain closures for forestation. After the mountain relocation policy was implemented, the provincial road near Qingshan Village near the mountainous area was planned as a resettlement area. In the past few years, nearly a thousand households in the mountainous area have been decentralized.In total, there are now more than 2000 households in Qingshan Village, and the total population is close to tens of thousands.Last year, the competition for the position of village chief almost led to a group incident.

Now Zhang Lan in Qingshan Village does not dare to bet on his kindness. Not to mention other things, his uncle's family was reported several times even for digging a well for the 100 acres of land they contracted. What a waste of people. There are things to do, just do your best.Even with good intentions and good deeds, you must first protect yourself.

"You are a child who is afraid of wolves and tigers. Wu Baocai's wife Zhao Guizhi, who came to our house a few days ago, and your aunt are cousins. If you give him a piercing, there will be no shortage of help from others in the hospital." Mother Li Ying was also somewhat dissatisfied with Zhang Lan's rejection.

"That's not the case." Zhang Lan was a little helpless: "Uncle Baocai's condition is much milder than that of my father. He can now walk independently. This disease depends entirely on exercise, and acupuncture is only an aid. Now he only needs to do it every day Just strengthen exercise and supplement with good nutrition. Acupuncture or not will have no effect."

"Besides, even acupuncture, one or two times of acupuncture for this disease is of no use, it can't have any obvious effect." Zhang Lan said, feeling a little guilty. Generally, one or two times of acupuncture by a doctor may not be so obvious. If he is willing The effort may be different.But such patients can never be tied up once or twice, and it will become difficult to treat as time goes by.

While he was talking, a white SUV stopped at the gate, and two people got out of the car.A girl in her 20s got out of the cab. She was tall, with long black hair, and was dressed fashionably.A middle-aged woman in her 50s got out of the passenger car, opened the rear door, and helped a man out of the car.

"I was just talking about you, so I came." Mother Li Ying saw that it was Wu Baocai's family of three. She stood up to greet them, not forgetting to glare at Zhang Lan.

"I'm disturbing my sister-in-law again, don't be annoyed." Zhao Guizhi's voice was very loud, and he helped Wu Baocai walk into the yard step by step.

"Why did you take something? What kind of thing is this?" Mother Li Ying quickly stopped her as she saw Wu Baocai's daughter Wu Qianqian carrying two gifts from the back seat of the car and about to walk into the house.

"It's okay, ma'am, this isn't worth the money. I just came to visit my uncle, and I asked him to eat it if I have nothing to do." Wu Qianqian was about to put two gifts into the house, but Zhang Lan's mother quickly stopped them.Seeing this, Mrs. Zhao, the neighbor, hurriedly accepted the gift: "Li Ying, please don't give in. His family is not short of this. He asked me to put it in the house for you. Qianqian, please greet your father."

Aunt Zhao quickly took the gift and placed it at the door of the living room. She also moved two stools from the house and invited Wu Baocai and his family to sit down.After all these actions, Zhang Lan's mother, Li Ying, didn't know what to say.

"You can sit down if you have nothing to do. You're not an outsider, so you're welcome." Zhang Lan's father, Zhang Dahai, spoke at this time.

"That's right, why are you so polite? Baocai and his family own a supermarket, Li Ying, don't be polite to them." Aunt Zhao smiled.

Really, Zhang Lan was speechless looking at this family of three.He greeted: "Uncle Baocai, I was just talking about you to my aunt. There is really no need for you. My dad has just been sick for a short time. In addition, he has been working outside and is in good health, so he recovered quickly. It has nothing to do with the acupuncture of my two knives."

Wu Baocai smiled and said nothing, while Wu Qianqian on the side looked a little unhappy.Just as he was about to speak, the hearty voice of Wu Baocai's daughter-in-law Zhao Guizhi sounded from the side: "Look what Zhang Lan said, my brother couldn't speak in the hospital at that time. It's only been a while since he was discharged that he can speak clearly and can also be supported." I'm walking. Sister-in-law, as you know, we also talked about my boss's disease in the hospital. It was the third review at that time. It was like this when I first got sick and was not discharged from the hospital. It's been more than a year. Acupuncture and medicine. Rehabilitation. I’ve tried it even with dance masters, but there’s no obvious effect.”

As he spoke, Zhao Guizhi's voice was a little low: "Sister-in-law, I speak outright and I won't hide it from you. To be honest, I am also sick and have been seeking medical treatment. It has been more than a year since Baocai, and I have also been to major hospitals in Kyoto. People say that the main thing is to exercise, but we don’t just want to get better quickly because we still have unfinished tasks. The big stalls in the supermarket are now lying around and there is no way to do it. They do everything. I’m holding the treasure, but now I can’t even speak clearly about the treasure.”

At this time, Aunt Zhao helped: "Li Ying, I also know what Zhang Lan is worried about, don't worry. This is just a needle stick. If we don't tell ourselves, we will be reported by outsiders, and he must have evidence. Baocai This family has been running a supermarket in the town for more than ten years, and we all know who he is, and he will definitely not do such a bad thing."

Li Ying looked at Zhang Lan and hesitated to speak.Zhang Lan stood up and said, "Madam, you have already said this, so what else is wrong? But let me tell you first, don't have too much hope. Most big hospitals say that exercise is the best. How can my wild way be compared to other people's big hospitals?"

"It's okay, it's okay. This is just a drop-in class to try."

"Come on, let's all go inside. Ask me to help my dad lie down for a while." Zhang Lan helped his father, Zhang Dahai, stand up from the wheelchair and helped him walk into the house.

After helping his father Zhang Dahai to lie down in the back room, Zhang Lan took out a box of acupuncture needles from the drawer.Seeing Zhang Lan come out with the needle, Zhao Guizhi quickly took out a box of silver needles from the bag he carried with him: "I have the needles with me. See if they can be used."
