Chapter 316: Weekly Medical Clinic
Everyone ended today's family dinner with laughter and joy.
The next day, Old John's inspection trip to China officially began.
The first stop was Beijing Medical University.
As one of the top medical institutions in China, Beijing Medical University has trained many outstanding students over the years.
Old John and his companions were quickly impressed by the profound heritage of Peking University of Medicine and the extensive knowledge of its teachers.
When we saw these teachers walk down from the podium, put on white coats, go to the affiliated hospitals, and become diligent doctors, we were all amazed.
A foreign expert said: "It's amazing that they can teach and treat patients at the same time. It's really amazing."
Little John went to the emergency room at the invitation of Xia Songlan.
Director Feng was very nervous. He could only speak a few simple words in Y language and could only say hello.
In order to practice these few sentences in Y language, Xia Songlan helped him cram for several days.
It was clearly afternoon, but little John was so excited to see me that he actually said good morning.
Little John's eyes widened.
The other medical staff who understood Y language could only hold back their laughter.
Director Feng seemed to have opened up his Ren and Du meridians. He took little John around the emergency room and talked in Chinese and Y language.
The way he looked was very much to Little John's liking. Although the two of them did not speak the same language, with Xia Songlan translating between them, they were able to have a pleasant conversation.
Little John also worked with Xia Songlan to set the bones of a child with a dislocated bone.
Xia Songlan just used some skill and within a second, the child's arm was restored.
Every time little John saw it, he was shocked. This time, he opened his mouth wide again. For a long while, he raised two thumbs with both hands to Xia Songlan.
"Songlan, you are more powerful than before. In the past, you would have to make preparations, but now you have cured the disease without any preparations.
The doctors in your country are really amazing."
As a result, he turned around and saw Dr. Liu from the same department using the same method to correct the bones of an elementary school student.
Little John patted his forehead and said, "The Chinese are really amazing, really amazing."
In the next few days, under the careful arrangement of Director Wang, Old John and his group visited many places and attractions.
It's amazing every time.
On the last day, grandpa invited them to Dongcheng.
Three years ago, Xia Songlan purchased a piece of land in Dongcheng, which was the one Ning Jingmo mentioned before.
Later, a Zhouji Medical Clinic was established there.
I gave my grandfather a surprise again and fulfilled his long-cherished wish.
Today, Zhouji Medical Clinic has grown in size and has become the most famous Chinese medicine clinic in the entire capital, attracting many people from other places who come here to visit.
My grandfather and his students would see patients here.
Even Grandma Liu quit her job at the Central Hospital and came to Zhouji Clinic.
Chen Qingqing did not come with them and remained in the central hospital.
Xia Songlan originally wanted to quit her job and come to Zhouji Medical Clinic to see patients, but her grandfather refused, "The country has trained you for so many years.
I sent you abroad to study, arranged for you to be a teacher, and stayed in the hospital as a doctor.
You cannot let the country down. The country cannot train you and then do your own things.
Grandpa won’t force you. You can come back when you retire or the country no longer needs you.
In the future, this clinic can only be inherited by you."
When grandpa brought Old John and his group into Zhouji Medical Clinic, Old John showed the most shocked expression of this trip.
The Zhouji Clinic is decorated in an antique style, and was built exactly according to my grandfather’s memory of the clinic when he was a child.
My grandfather has always had a long-cherished wish in his life, which is to restore the Zhouji Medical Clinic.
Zhouji Medical Clinic was popular for nearly 200 years, but was destroyed by artillery fire during the war and has never been rebuilt since then.
My grandfather's father was depressed because of this, and his fellow apprentices were scattered all over the country.
Xia Songlan always remembered her grandfather's long-cherished wish and helped him realize it whenever she was able.
All the architectural layout and decoration of every plant and tree inside were built and perfected under the personal guidance of my grandfather.
Now, besides staying in his small courtyard, my grandfather also likes to come to Zhouji Medical Clinic.
Of course, the current Zhouji Medical Clinic has been expanded a lot based on its original appearance, and the inpatient department at the back has been built into a high-rise building.
But the consultation room in the front is completely old-style.
Old John was so shocked that he said, "Zhou, this is exactly the same as the photo I saw.
Didn’t you say they were all blown up?”
Grandpa smiled proudly, "I have to thank my good granddaughter. This is all woad. It helped me fulfill my wish.
It has allowed me to stand in Zhouji Medical Clinic again."
Old John looked at Xia Songlan with admiration, then turned around and glared at Little John, "You bastard, you can do nothing but pick up girls.
Just asking me for money.
When will you build a hospital for me?"
Little John was so scared that he quickly hid behind Xia Songlan.
He was tall and there was no way Xia Songlan could stop him.
Little John, however, buried his head behind Xia Songlan's back, like a frightened ostrich burying its head in the sand.
Everyone laughed again.
Grandpa took Old John and his group to visit Zhouji Medical Clinic and introduced their medicinal materials.
At this time, the production base in An County was mentioned.
Old John was full of admiration, “You are really thoughtful in what you do, kid, you are just as cunning as when you were young.
No wonder you can keep the price so low when treating patients, it turns out your cost is the origin.”
Director Wang explained on the side: "Mr. Zhou saw that this Chinese medicine clinic was almost a semi-welfare institution.
We don’t need any government support at all. We raise all the money ourselves to treat patients, and the treatment fee is the lowest in the city.”
Old John had originally planned only a ten-day trip, but now, he is reluctant to leave China and is particularly interested in the Chinese medicine base.
He immediately added a few more days and decided to go see the traditional Chinese medicine base mentioned by his grandfather.
Director Wang thought the work was done, but now seeing the foreign guests so enthusiastic, they even expressed the intention to export Chinese traditional medicine.
He immediately became excited, reported to his superiors, and then contacted An County. He quickly arranged all the itineraries.
We will set off for An County two days later.
I also used these two days to take the inspection team to tour various scenic spots in Beijing.
The night before departure.
Little John asked Xia Songlan to take her to the snack street, "Songlan, please, you must take me to the snack street.
I was drooling when you mentioned the snack street a few years ago, and I have been thinking about it for several years. "
Xia Songlan smiled and nodded, "No problem, I will definitely fulfill your wish."
As a result, when she went to pick up little John in the evening, she was not alone, Ning Jingmo also came with her.
Little John grumbled in disgust, "Why did you bring such a big light bulb to our date?"
Ning Jingmo was also very humorous, "Only my big light bulb, with its high wattage, can illuminate the way to the snack street~"
