Chapter 120 Going to the Educated Youth Compound
Feng Qingqing stopped thinking about it and quickly disinfected the needles. She silently held them in her hand and looked closely. There was a thin layer of sweat on her palms, but Feng Qingqing quietly walked to Aunt Wu's side and gently raised her hand holding the needles, referring to the human acupoint diagram in her mind.
She was a little nervous, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, but Uncle Wu didn't notice because he was focused on Aunt Wu.
Feng Qingqing let out a soft breath, her hand steadily inserting the needle into the Tanzhong acupoint. After removing the needle, Feng Qingqing steadied herself and then removed the second and third needles. Afterwards, Feng Qingqing closely monitored Wu Da Niang's condition. Seeing that Wu Da Niang's complexion had noticeably improved after the three needles were removed, Wu Da Niang's uncle, standing beside her, also noticed, looking at Feng Qingqing with obvious joy and gratitude.
Although it was Feng Qingqing's first time, she was very confident in the products produced by the space and did not have too many doubts. However, she was overjoyed to see that Aunt Wu had obvious improvement after she used a few needles. This time, she not only verified the acupuncture method she had learned in her mind, but also tried it out herself, which can be said to have been quite fruitful.
A few minutes later, Feng Qingqing pulled out the needles as expected. As soon as she pulled them out, Aunt Wu woke up with a groan.
She had just woken up and wasn't quite sure what was going on. Seeing Feng Qingqing there, she was a little confused. But then, as if remembering something, her face flushed again. Feng Qingqing quickly reminded her:
“Aunt Wu, if it’s not for anything else, but for your own health, you can’t always be so angry. Getting angry is bad for your health, and it doesn’t solve anything. In fact, it might just do what some people want.”
After she finished speaking, she winked at Aunt Wu. Aunt Wu, hearing what she said and looking at her, slowly spoke up:
"Dr. Feng, we really owe you a lot this time. Look at me, I'm so old, but I'm not as open-minded as a young girl like you."
After saying that, she sighed. For some reason, looking at Feng Qingqing, Aunt Wu suddenly felt an urge to confide in her, and so she began to pour out her grievances:
"Who am I doing this for? It's all for that little brat! What good can a widow who's unemployed possibly have? He's a grown man, and he wants to marry someone with a child in tow. Besides, before she got married, she had an affair with a man from their brigade. Now that he's gone, who knows what will happen to her? Who am I doing this for...?"
Feng Qingqing felt helpless listening to this. What could a young girl like her say? Uncle Wu, who was standing next to her, noticed Feng Qingqing's discomfort and quickly changed the subject:
"It's good that you're awake. Doctor Feng still has things to do. You should rest for a while. I'll see the doctor out first. Don't worry too much. Children and grandchildren have their own lives. If you worry so much, they won't like to listen, and you'll offend people."
Uncle Wu didn't want to say anything, but he couldn't help but say a few words in the end. He was afraid that the woman would make him angry again, because he had just taken Feng Qingqing's words about how anger was bad for his health to heart.
When Feng Qingqing came out, she saw that Wu Da Niang's sons were still standing outside the door. They could vaguely hear their mother's voice inside and knew that she had woken up. When they saw Feng Qingqing come out, they all came up with gratitude. Those who hadn't paid much attention to her before knew that Feng Qingqing looked young but was indeed a good doctor, and their attitudes improved a lot in an instant.
Feng Qingqing didn't care much. She merely glanced at Aunt Wu's youngest son, accepted the 50 cents consultation fee from Uncle Wu, and leisurely went back home.
When she got back, Feng Qingqing felt much better, and the thought of her acupuncture skills made her feel excited.
She wasn't moving fast, and by the time she got close to the clinic, it was already getting late. She was thinking about having dinner at the educated youth compound that night.
She quickly walked a few steps to open the courtyard gate, and after entering the courtyard, she carefully gathered up the various herbs that were drying in the yard. Then she went inside the house to check what she had at hand.
She couldn't go to the educated youth compound empty-handed, so after thinking for a while, she decided to bring two pounds of peanuts to add to the dishes for the educated youth.
As it was getting late, Feng Qingqing was packing her things to leave when she heard Hu Fangming's voice outside the door. She was afraid that Feng Qingqing would forget about going to the educated youth compound for dinner that night, so she specially went around to call her so that the two of them could go together.
Hearing the shout, Feng Qingqing quickly came out. Knowing her purpose, she smiled and said:
"So you're the only one who still remembers? Wait here, I'll pack my things and come out right away."
When Hu Fangming heard that Feng Qingqing was bringing things to eat at the educated youth compound, he opened his mouth as if to say no, but then he thought of some of the educated youth in the compound, sighed inwardly, and said nothing.
Seeing that Feng Qingqing was carrying about two pounds of peanuts, which was quite a presentable gift, I felt a little regretful and said:
"These peanuts are such good, but they don't taste good even when they're in some people's mouths."
Feng Qingqing smiled gently:
"I'm not doing this for those people; it's just a small token of my appreciation."
At the same time, I thought to myself: Thank goodness for this meal, otherwise where would I find such a good opportunity?
The two walked out while talking. Feng Qingqing turned around and locked the courtyard gate. The two then headed towards the educated youth compound.
On the way, Hu Fangming, worried that Feng Qingqing might not be aware of some things since she hadn't been there for a while, hurriedly explained them to her:
"That Jiang Yun, she was still throwing a tantrum the day Ye Dahua beat her up, but these past two days she's been acting like nothing happened, except she's covering her face with something."
She glanced at Feng Qingqing before whispering:
"I feel that's what's terrifying, isn't this abnormal?"
Feng Qingqing appreciated her keen insight; Jiang Yun was clearly holding back a big move, and it was just a matter of when she would make her move.
Then Hu Fangming mentioned Lü Yulan, and upon hearing her name, Feng Qingqing's ears immediately perked up:
"You know, it's strange of her. After that incident, she was always flirting with Lai Heping in the educated youth compound, as if everyone else was blind. I wonder if she lost her mind after that incident."
"And then there's Jiang Hongjun. Ever since he suddenly went mad that time, several days have passed, and he's been completely silent every day. I'm getting creeped out of it too."
Seeing that Feng Qingqing was ignoring him and lost in thought, she tugged at her hand and said:
“You know, I have a feeling something big is going to happen at our educated youth compound. I hope I’m not implicated. These people are all acting really strangely.”
Feng Qingqing was brought back to her senses by her pulling, and after hearing what she said, she smiled and comforted her:
"What nonsense are you spouting again? You're not the only one in the educated youth compound. Don't worry, there are tall people to hold up the sky if it falls."
Hearing Feng Qingqing say this, Hu Fangming felt a little relieved, and the two of them arrived at the educated youth compound as they talked.
The educated youth compound was unusually lively at this time. Many lotus roots dug up by the male educated youth were displayed in the courtyard, the female educated youth were cooking, and the male educated youth were fetching water to wash the lotus roots, which still had mud on them, one by one.
