Traveling through time and space: Medical skills travel the world

"I really don't know how we would have gotten through this difficult time without Xiaomei." Although Zhang Bo was old and frail, his voice was firm and his eyes showed gratitude. The surrounding villagers nodded in agreement.

"Yes, we used to share our troubles with each other as neighbors, but now we have to hide at home for fear of suffering the same misfortune again. Xiaomei's actions have rekindled our hope." Tears flashed in Grandma Li's eyes. Although she is old, she is still full of confidence in the future.

"Although I am quite old, I also want to contribute to this village." A Qiang from the neighboring family said in a loud and serious voice, "I can help arrange the vaccination, distribute the vaccine, and try to explain it clearly to everyone."

"Aqiang, what you said is exactly what I want to say." Xiaomei looked up with a gratified smile on her face. "Vaccination requires not only my efforts, but also the efforts of each of you. Only when everyone works together can we truly defeat the plague."

Xiaofang was standing aside, and was so moved by everyone's enthusiasm that she almost cried. "Thank you so much for supporting Xiaomei! I will do my best to help her and let more people understand the importance of vaccination."

Zhang Bo raised his hand like a god, his eyes full of determination. "Then let's act quickly! In the next few days, we can go door to door in the villages to publicize the necessity of vaccination to the villagers and encourage them to join."

"I will prepare some promotional materials and draw some pictures to make it easier for everyone to understand." Ah Qiang immediately ran to the hut to prepare paper and ink. Under his leadership, other villagers followed suit and expressed their willingness to share the task.

"Next, we will divide into groups." Xiaomei began to assign tasks. "Who is willing to go to the families at the village entrance to talk?"

"I'll go! I'll go." A strong young man named Xiaohu patted his chest, his eyes full of determination, "I can bring the vaccine and explain it to them in person."

"Okay, Xiaohu, take the vaccine with you and go find those who are still hesitant today." Xiaomei smiled and then pointed to Xiaofang and several village women: "You are responsible for communicating with the women and patiently answering their questions."

"No problem! I will do my best to reassure them." Xiaofang responded excitedly.

The villagers quickly assigned tasks to everyone, and everyone looked excited, as if they had seen the dawn of hope. At this moment, Grandpa Shen slowly stood up, and his voice, though weak, was resounding. "I am old and cannot do much, but I am willing to express my views to those who are hesitant, and I hope my experience can reassure them."

"Uncle Shen, your words are very important. After hearing your experience, I believe they will be more willing to give it a try." Xiaomei's eyes sparkled with gratitude, "We will provide you with all the support you need so that you can play your full role."

As the cooperation progressed, an atmosphere of unity gradually formed among the villagers in the square. Young and old, male and female, everyone was working towards a common goal, and their hearts were filled with warmth.

"I remember some familiar faces. They are our neighbors." Xiaofang mentioned some neighbors in a soft voice, "If we can visit them together, it may be easier to impress them and make them trust this vaccine."

"That's a good idea. Let's carry our belongings and go out together. We can then act separately. As long as more people participate, we will be stronger." Xiaomei responded.

In the morning light of the village, the villagers flowed in all directions like a trickle of water, heading into their respective tasks. They may not have too many skills, but they have enough enthusiasm and trust, and a common hope burning in their hearts.

Not far away, Uncle Zhang and Grandma Li walked towards their neighbor's house together, speaking softly and earnestly about Xiaomei's efforts and the importance of vaccines in fighting the plague. "No matter what the outcome, we rely on each other. Only when we are united can our village be revived."

That day, Chen Fang's good friend Li Mei approached her with an excited look on her face: "Sister Fang, today I heard that Xiao Liu's son caught a cold again. You should go and have a look! His family recovered very quickly from the illness yesterday. I heard that the medicine you prescribed is simply amazing!"

"Okay, I'll go right away." Chen Fang smiled slightly, her face full of confidence. She knew that treating every patient with care was her most basic responsibility as a doctor.

When she arrived at Xiao Liu's house, the elderly and children outside were waiting anxiously. Xiao Liu's mother, Mrs. Zhang, saw Chen Fang and hurriedly came over to greet her: "Doctor Chen, please come in, my son has a fever again, and it has been several hours!"

"Don't worry, I'll go check it out first." Chen Fang put down the medicine box and walked into the room. The air in the room was a little stuffy. Xiao Liu was lying on the bed, his face pale, with fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Little Liu, let me see your tongue." Chen Fang said softly, and then carefully examined the child's symptoms. Little Liu's eyes were dull and his mouth was slightly hot. She pondered for a moment and had an idea in her mind.

"Mrs. Zhang, do you always let your children eat cold food?" Chen Fang asked, with concern in her eyes.

"Yes, the weather has been hot recently, and I always give him cold water to drink. Is that wrong?" Mrs. Zhang lowered her head guiltily.

"Cold drinks do affect children's health, especially when they are sick." Chen Fang sighed slightly, "I will prescribe some medicine to regulate his spleen and stomach, but you have to pay attention to your diet and take it slow."

She quickly began to pick up the medicine and accurately prepared several herbs. After a busy period in the house, Chen Fang boiled the medicine into soup and brought it to Xiao Liu: "This is the medicine I boiled for you. You will feel much better after drinking it."

Xiao Liu frowned slightly, revealing his fear of the bitterness of the medicine through his young face. "Sister Fang, is the medicine very bitter?"

"It's painful, but it's to heal you and let you play soon." Chen Fang leaned over and encouraged gently, "I believe you can do it!"

With her encouragement, Xiao Liu mustered up the courage and gulped down the bowl of medicine. Chen Fang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to explain daily maintenance and dietary taboos to Mrs. Zhang.

"Sister Fang, I heard that you are an excellent doctor. Are you really not afraid at all?" Mrs. Zhang asked curiously, her eyes full of admiration for her.

"I am afraid too, but I am more afraid of seeing patients not getting the treatment they deserve." Chen Fang said firmly, "A doctor should not only have medical skills, but also a kind heart."

"Oh, I really wish there were more doctors like you in this village." Mrs. Zhang sighed.

"I'm still learning," Chen Fang said sincerely, "and my dream is to help everyone in need as much as possible."

As Xiao Liu's condition gradually improved, the villagers paid more attention to Chen Fang. She indeed became a well-known "female doctor" in the village. However, with this came greater pressure, and more and more patients came to her door.

One evening, after a busy day, Chen Fang returned home. Her good friend Li Mei was already waiting at the door. She couldn't help but say, "Sister Fang, today the five uncles in the village came to see you for medical treatment. They heard that you didn't have time. They all wondered how you could become a doctor. You're too busy."

"I know, I really want to help them." Chen Fang sat down and rubbed his temple tiredly, "But I am also a human being, I need to rest."

Li Mei looked at her distressedly: "Do you want me to help you share some of the burden? We can divide the work and work together, it will be better than you doing it alone."

"This way, we can take better care of the patients." Chen Fang's eyes sparkled with hope. "Okay, let's work together!"

"Then I'll go find Uncle Wu and the others tonight and tell them that we'll try to arrange a time." Li Mei's face was full of excitement. "I'm so happy to have a friend like you!"
