Yuan Wei's Quick Travel

Chapter 129: Cannon Fodder 13

Song Mengqiu originally thought that she was just unlucky that day, but the days that followed made her realize that this was just the beginning.

She seemed to be trapped in an endless cycle of bad luck, encountering obstacles and setbacks no matter what she did.

When cooking, the pot would always become burnt for no apparent reason; when fetching water, I would always fall down suddenly; even the clothes I wore would be torn for no apparent reason.

These abnormal phenomena made Song Mengqiu feel confused and helpless. She felt as if she was plagued by bad luck and could not complete anything successfully.

The abnormal conditions that happened to her made other people at the educated youth site afraid of her. They did not dare to approach her easily, for fear of being contaminated by her bad luck.

Even Su Qingguo, who had been pursuing her, kept his distance while showing his affection to her and did not dare to get too close to her.

These experiences made Song Mengqiu increasingly devastated, and she felt that her life was completely out of control.

In desperation, she secretly sought help from a fortune teller.

But maybe it was because the fortune teller was incompetent, Song Mengqiu's bad luck still followed her like a shadow, with no sign of going away.

Nowadays, Song Mengqiu no longer dares to go out easily.

If it weren't for the food rations, she would rather stay at the educated youth center than step out of the room to go to work.

Whenever Song Mengqiu went out, he would be unlucky, either getting his feet kicked or his hands scratched, or sometimes even tripped by a stone.

In just a few days, her body was covered with bruises and wounds, and there was almost no intact skin.

The villagers were very surprised by Song Mengqiu's misfortune, and they all looked at her with disapproval.

That day, Wang Wanting came to the health station, sat on a chair, looked at Yuan Wei busy at work, and asked, "Do you think she has something on her body? Otherwise, how could she be so unlucky?"

Yuan Wei was fiddling with the herbs she had just picked. After hearing this, she smiled and replied, "Who knows? Maybe it's just bad luck."

"This is the first time I've seen someone so unlucky." Wang Wanting widened her eyes and said in surprise, "I've never seen her like this before. Could it be because she did something bad recently?"

She had been in the village for several days and had never noticed that Song Mengqiu was so unlucky until recently when he suddenly started to be unlucky more frequently.

Thinking of this, Wang Wanting couldn't help but shudder. She touched the goose bumps on her arms and muttered to herself, "Did I really touch something unclean?"

After hearing this, Yuan Wei shook her head and said, "Don't scare yourself. Confucius doesn't talk about strange things. We should believe in science."

Although she said this, she felt a little uneasy in her heart.

After all, she knew very well that all this was because she had secretly cast a bad luck spell on Song Mengqiu.

Can this bad luck charm be explained by science?

Wang Wanting is not a person who likes to dwell on things. She is just curious about this matter, so she did not continue to explore the topic in depth.

Seeing Yuan Wei fiddling with the herbs, she couldn't help but feel suspicious, so she asked, "You're fiddling with these herbs so carefully, are you planning to sell them?"

Yuan Wei gently shook her head and patiently explained to her, "No, the people in the village don't have much money, so once they get sick, they often have no choice but to endure it. Even if some people come to the health center, they are sometimes reluctant to buy medicine because the cost is too high."

Yuan Wei continued to work while speaking. "My mother and I picked these herbs together, and we don't charge them. This way, when they get sick and don't want to buy Western medicine, they can choose to take these free herbs."

Wang Wanting listened quietly and fell into a brief silence.

After a while, she said slowly, "You are fine."

Yuan Wei smiled softly and responded, "That's all right, isn't it? These are just some trivial matters. After all, we have nothing to do anyway, and we're still getting paid."

After studying for a period of time, Xia Xing'er felt that Yuan Wei's theoretical knowledge was solid enough, and what she lacked was only practical experience.

After Yuan Wei cured several patients independently, Xia Xing'er had a better understanding of Yuan Wei's talent.

She believed that Yuan Wei had acquired sufficient ability to treat patients independently.

So, Xia Xing'er reported the news to the commune.

The commune secretary was worried that there were too few health centers in the entire commune, and most of the doctors in the county town had been taken away for reform. Otherwise, wouldn't it be great if they could come to their commune health center?

Now that a ready-made doctor suddenly appeared who did not need to be trained by the commune or have to deal with superiors, he was overjoyed.

On that day, the commune secretary couldn't wait to drag Yuan Wei to the county hospital to take the assessment.

After successfully passing the assessment, Yuan Wei was arranged to start working at the health station immediately.

The commune secretary is very efficient.

The Shengli Brigade did not need two doctors, so the commune secretary considered transferring Yuan Wei to another brigade.

At present, several nearby brigades are actively striving to set up health stations in their own brigades, but the final ownership has not yet been determined.

Therefore, Yuan Wei still stayed in Shengli Brigade to work these days.

"That's great too." Wang Wanting said softly.

Although she didn't know what was good about it specifically, as long as she could help others, it was a good thing.

She had never imagined that some people would choose to endure the pain rather than take medication because of the high cost of medicine.

After all, for her, when she was sick, she would not want to take medicine simply because she was afraid of the pain.

Wang Wanting has been the apple of her family's eye since she was born, and the whole family loves her very much.

The fact that she has developed such a likable personality without becoming arrogant or domineering is entirely due to her own good character.

She came to the countryside with Hu Feng because she thought she had grown up and was no longer willing to live under the protection of her family. She was eager to venture into the outside world.

However, from Jing City to Shengli Brigade, as time went by, she became more and more taciturn.

In fact, she felt as confused and lost as Xuan Qihao, not knowing where to go in the future.

But at this moment, an idea came to Wang Wanting's mind.

She stared at Yuan Wei, her face filled with joy, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Yuan Wei."

Yuan Wei looked at her in confusion, not understanding why she suddenly thanked her.

Just as she was about to ask the reason, there was a sudden noise outside.

"Xiao Xia, Xiao Xia, come and help take care of my Lei Zi." Sun Jinhua shouted anxiously.
