Chapter 255: Dropping Out

It is the alternating season of autumn and winter, and there are a lot more patients in the clinic than usual, especially the cold and flu are endless, Yang Xiaobei decisively decided not to take the baby to the clinic, and left the two small ones at home.

Facts have proved how wise her decision is, within a few days of a large-scale outbreak of mumps in elementary school, almost 30% of the children were recruited, and the clinic was overcrowded for a while, and Yang Qitai and Yi Huifen were busy all day long.

Mumps is mostly infected in children, and children are easily infected with each other, but once they are infected, they can be immunized for life. Mumps has an incubation period of about two to three weeks and affects the salivary glands and nerve tissue, with fever and enlargement and tenderness of one or more salivary glands as the main clinical manifestations. Because of the high concentration of people in elementary schools, there are large outbreaks of mumps every few years.

Don't look at it is just a very common oral disease, but it is also very painful to attack, Yang Xiaobei was also unfortunately hit when he was young, fever, swollen parotid gland centered on the earlobe, local skin fever, nervous and shiny, contralateral parotid gland, pain aggravated when opening the mouth to chew and eating an acidic diet, in short, the face is as big as a plate, and the pain is unbearable. The clinic is full of people coming to see patients all day long, and the crying of children who have been injected and abused with drugs is terrifying for a while.

In Yang Xiaobei's memory, after 90 years, there has not been a large-scale epidemic transmission, and some are only sporadic cases of the autoimmune system, which are very rare. At this time, it was very common, except for the first two days of fever and resting at home, and the children who returned to school later had a pair of funny black plasters on their faces, one on each side, very symmetrical.

This is a unique secret recipe of local local medicine, which specializes in the treatment of children's mumps, and the effect is much better than that of Western medicine. Western medicine can only treat the symptoms and relieve high fever, inflammation or something, but patients with mumps are very painful, and it is difficult to open their mouths and the pain is unbearable. After applying the black plaster, the effect is immediate, and the swelling will disappear the next day, and the roots will be slowly broken.

When he was a child, Yang Xiaobei was also shamefully pasted with two black plasters on his cheeks. Imagine a beautiful and lovely little girl, turn her head and find that two black, round plasters are pasted on her big face, and the side will turn yellow and warp after a long time, and the picture is simply spicy. However, due to the large number of people who posted it, almost everyone in particular inevitably wanted to be posted, but no one laughed at it.

As a result, children with weird "labels" on their faces are always seen laughing and playing in the school, which may be a little scary at first sight, but everyone ignores them. Yang Xiaobei also resisted at that time, and refused to put on the ugly black plaster - not only ugly, but also very unpleasant, she refused to put it on her face. My father is a doctor himself, and it is very convenient to treat her, who knows that after taking antibiotics for a week, her condition has not improved, but has become more serious.

The friends who were sick together were all cured, and the plasters on their faces were also removed, and Yang Xiaobei reluctantly pasted them, and there were also sequelae back then, because they had to be pasted for several days, and when they were removed, those black things were firmly attached to their faces, and they couldn't be washed off......

It's all tears, that's Yang Xiaobei is still very curious about this magical plaster, but this is the foundation of people's lives, although my father has also visited a few times and tried to ask for advice, but this kind of local medicine is a skill that has been passed down from generation to generation, and it will never be passed on. However, with the disappearance of mumps, they are no longer useful, and the final outcome may be lost.

Having said that, there was an epidemic in the school, which made Yang Qitai, as the principal, extremely busy. It's not that the work is not good or anything, in this era, there are too many epidemic diseases in schools, such as the most common flu, pink eye, mumps, etc., which school will not be recruited? However, Yang Qitai is young, active in work, and has a strong sense of responsibility, but he is also worried about the children's illness, and he also has to worry that some children will miss school because of this, and he has recently come back late every night.

There are always some parents who think that their children go to school just to know a few words. Probably at the age of four or five, maybe one day will not come, the child is sick, stay at home for a week and don't want to go to school, adults just save a few dollars, let them play at home, what Yang Qitai is doing now is to visit every family and persuade the children to come back to class.

It was very late to get home that day, and Yang Qitai, who entered the door wrapped in a gust of cold wind, made Yi Huifen only frown, "Just persuade one or two trips, where does the strength come from for such a one-time run? Besides, the child is unwilling to go to school, it is useless for you to persuade him to come back!" After complaining, he still asked with concern, "Have you eaten?"

"No!" Yang Qitai smiled innocently, "I know!" Yi Huifen muttered and went to the kitchen to heat the meal, these people really made it, Qitai is for their good, this is every day after work, I run all the way over, it's more than nine o'clock and I don't even provide food!

"Don't talk nonsense! They invited me to dinner, but I didn't agree. Otherwise, wouldn't you be said to be going to eat mixed rice?" Yang Qitai was also hungry, and he didn't forget to clarify to others while gobbling it up, "It's a pity that other people's children are a good seedling!"

"Then why don't you continue to study?" Yang Xiaobei was also curious, since the grades were good, according to the local customs, they would still be able to go to school - the carp jumped the dragon gate after the exam, right?

"Alas, so the child is too sensible!" Yang Qitai dried up the meal in three strokes and divided five by two, and took a sip of the tea handed by his wife with satisfaction. "It's the family surnamed Tan in the ninth group, you should have heard of it, the family that adopted a son!"

"Oh! It's that family! I know, I know!" Yi Huifen raised her hand and said, "I heard from my sister-in-law, that daughter-in-law is her classmate, and she has adopted a son after entering the door for several years without having a child." Who knew that the child had just arrived at their house for a year, and the woman was pregnant, and later the Tan family wanted to return the child to the family, so they stayed. ”

In the relatively feudal and isolated countryside, not being able to have children is the biggest blow to a woman. The Tan family has waited for many years, her stomach has not moved, she has a lot of opinions, and even has the idea of divorce from her wife. It was also a coincidence that when there was a lot of trouble, there happened to be a child from a distant relative of a villager who wanted to give it away, so he was naturally adopted.

Tan Family's ...... Her surname is Wang, let's call her Sister Wang, she has always been very grateful to this child. If this child hadn't appeared in time, she might have become a cousin, and she would have had the reputation of not being able to give birth to cubs for the rest of her life. Who knew that the arrival of this child would have an unexpected surprise, and soon she found out that she had a body.

may be destined in the dark that this child is destined for himself. Before he came, he didn't get pregnant after seeing many home remedies, and after he came to the house, he didn't ask for it, but he accidentally got pregnant. Sister Wang decided in her heart that these were all brought by this big baby, and if there was no him, there would be nothing later, so she swore that she would definitely treat this child as her own.
