Chapter 120 It’s okay, Cai Ling is usually like this
The food in the cafeteria at noon today was pretty good.
Maybe it’s because it’s Friday. As it’s the last meal of the week, the cafeteria has been stingy for four days, so they tend to be more generous on Fridays.
Fang Wei, Cai Ling, Zhi Yi and A Sheng had dinner together as usual.
Now is the time when they are growing and developing, so the boys and girls eat without any distractions and chat while they eat.
"Tomorrow is the weekend again. What are your plans then?" A Sheng asked excitedly.
"Of course, I have to finish my homework first!" Xu Cailing said, shaking her head.
"Are you okay, Cailing? Is this something you can say?"
"Qi! Do you think I'm like you, playing all day long? Besides, when have I not finished my homework before playing?"
"Why don't we come to school together when the time comes!" said A Sheng.
Not only Cai Ling, but even Fang Wei couldn't help but look at A Sheng after hearing this.
"Are you okay, Sheng? Is that something you can say?"
"You want to come to school to study? Read a book?"
"what……"
Ah Sheng chuckled and said, "Didn't my dad buy me a basketball? I'll invite a few people and we can come to school to play basketball together on the weekend!"
"..."
Okay, I misunderstood you!
Although Asheng's ranking in the last midterm exam was not very good, he had made great progress and was specially praised by Teacher Wen at the parent-teacher meeting. Fang Xianmin was so happy that he finally agreed to buy a basketball for this bad boy.
Influenced by "Slam Dunk", basketball is A Sheng's favorite sport.
Normally when Ah Sheng was walking, he would suddenly make a shooting motion into the air as if he was possessed. Even when he was throwing away garbage or something like that, he had to use the shooting motion.
But for now, A Sheng’s playing skills are really not good enough.
But interest is always the best teacher. If you stick to an interest to the end, it will become what others call a talent.
Even though Asheng is the shortest among the four now, Fang Wei knows that this kid can grow to be over meters tall in the future. When Asheng grows up, he can become famous in basketball.
While the three were chatting, Liu Zhiyi was eating quietly, sniffing his nose from time to time, and occasionally turning his head away and sneezing while covering his nose.
Seeing that everyone was full, she put down her chopsticks as well.
"Zhiyi, aren't you going to eat? There's still so much food left!" Xu Cailing said in surprise.
"Ugh...I can't eat anymore."
Liu Zhiyi took out a handkerchief and wiped her mouth and nose. Because she wiped it so much, the tender skin on the tip of her nose turned red.
Looking at her condition, Fang Wei also frowned.
She took cold medicine in the morning, but it didn't seem to work much. After half a day's class, the girl looked even weaker.
During the last music class just now, she slept on the table for most of the class. Even though it was a music class, sleeping in class was quite incredible for her. Of course, it was because she was really sleepy and uncomfortable.
"Zhiyi, are you okay? Is your cold better?" Xu Cailing also asked with concern.
"It's okay, I feel much better after taking the medicine." Liu Zhiyi forced a smile, looking dazed.
Well, after getting sick, even people seem to become less intelligent.
Fang Wei stretched out his hand and touched his own forehead, then reached out and touched Cai Ling's forehead, and finally reached out again and touched Liu Zhiyi's forehead.
As if a switch had been triggered, Liu Zhiyi didn't move and just sat there obediently.
Instead, Fang Wei's expression turned serious.
"You seem to have a low-grade fever."
"……what?"
"Do you feel cold?"
"...kind of."
Liu Zhiyi nodded. It was already noon and the temperature was rising, but she still felt chilly. Even though she was wearing a sweater, she was still very cold.
Hearing Fang Wei say this, Xu Cailing also touched her own forehead, then touched Fang Wei's forehead, and then touched Liu Zhiyi's forehead.
"It's so hot!! Zhiyi, you need to see a doctor!!"
Xu Cailing also became nervous. It was just a common cold, so there was no need to worry too much as long as there was no fever. But if there was a fever, the problem would be much more serious and it would be very uncomfortable.
Fang Wei also frowned. Without a thermometer, he didn't know exactly how high the fever was. But since he had started to have a fever, he couldn't just sit there and do nothing.
"Let me take you to the clinic outside during this lunch break."
"No need, I'll just go upstairs and take a nap later..."
"Don't be so arrogant. I'll take you there."
"..."
"Yeah, Zhiyi, you should go see a doctor. If the fever is too severe, it will drive people crazy!"
"..."
"Yes, Zhiyi, go and take a look. Awei is here, he knows everything."
"..."
Seeing that everyone said so, Liu Zhiyi finally nodded.
"Let's go, we'll go now."
"The lunch box hasn't been washed yet..."
"You guys go ahead, I'll wash it."
Xu Cailing took their lunch boxes, and Fang Wei took Liu Zhiyi out of the school and went to a small clinic in the town.
……
After all, it is a remote little island with backward medical and educational resources. There is not even a decent hospital in the town, only one or two small clinics.
On weekdays, if the islanders have any minor illnesses or pains, they go to the village clinic or the small clinic in the town.
Most of the medications used by barefoot doctors are very heavy, including a lot of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs. With the combination of the four-piece set of antiviral + antibiotics + dexamethasone + antipyretic drugs, the main feature is that the effect is immediate.
In fact, there is a small clinic at the school gate. It is often full of patients. People in the village are keen to go there for treatment because the doctor’s treatment is effective and quick, and it does not interfere with their daily work.
Liu Zhiyi had never seen a doctor on the island. When she saw the clinic at the school gate, she thought Fang Wei was going to take her there, but she didn't expect Fang Wei to take her further.
"Fang Wei, aren't you watching here?" Liu Zhiyi asked curiously.
"Do you want an injection?"
Fang Wei smiled and said, "If you watch it here, you will definitely need a butt shot or an IV drip, right?"
Hearing this, the girl's face turned pale, and she quickly shook her head like a rattle: "I don't want to get the injection! I feel like I'm already well! Why don't we go back!"
Fang Wei: “…”
How afraid are you of injections? Just hearing the word "injection" will make you half cured?
Seeing the girl's fearful look, Fang Wei was both angry and amused, and said, "You still need to see a doctor. You're starting to have a fever, aren't you feeling uncomfortable? Let's not see the doctor here, let's go to the clinic across the street."
"So, do I need an injection there too?"
"Well, it depends on the situation, but less needles are used over there."
"I don't want to get an injection..."
"That depends on what the doctor says. Being sick is so uncomfortable. You should take care of your health on a daily basis."
"Um……"
Liu Zhiyi nodded, and then continued to follow Fang Wei forward.
The doctor at the small clinic that Fang Wei mentioned is more restrained in using drugs. She is an old lady who retired from the county hospital and is a very honest person.
On the way, Fang Wei also asked about Liu Zhiyi's situation.
"When did you start feeling unwell?" "Well, I had a sore throat yesterday, and then I woke up with a cold today..."
"Does it still hurt now?"
"A little bit, then I coughed, sneezed, had a runny nose, felt sore all over, felt so sleepy, and had a headache..."
"I think you have caught a cold. When you see the doctor later, tell her in detail."
"it is good……"
Liu Zhiyi stopped and said, remembering something: "I forgot to bring money..."
"It's okay, I brought it, I'll just pay for you first."
"it is good……"
For a young girl, she is already vulnerable when she is sick, and she has no idea how to see a doctor and get treatment. Whenever she was sick since she was a child, her parents always took her to the hospital. She had never been to a doctor alone, and she didn't know how to register and get a number, let alone in such an unfamiliar environment.
Fang Wei gave very detailed instructions and was very understanding of her situation. The two chatted as they walked. With him by her side, Liu Zhiyi felt much more at ease.
……
Soon, the two arrived at the door of a small clinic called "Yang Hong Clinic".
Fang Wei pushed the door open and walked in first, and Liu Zhiyi followed closely behind.
Even though it is not a big hospital, a small clinic has the same unique smell as a hospital, with a mixture of disinfectant and various medicines.
Just smelling the smell in the air, Liu Zhiyi's heart began to beat fast. He inexplicably felt his mind become clearer, his nostrils were unblocked, and he stopped sneezing...
Recently it is the peak season for influenza. Although it is not as busy as the clinic near the school gate, there are quite a few people in this small clinic, young and old. However, the two people in school uniforms stand out.
Fang Wei found an empty seat on the bench and asked Liu Zhiyi to sit down first.
Then he walked over to the examination table and said to the doctor, who was wearing casual clothes and looked like an ordinary old woman:
"Doctor Yang, I want to see a doctor about a cold and fever."
"Take your temperature first, while I finish this."
"Ok."
Doctor Yang took out a glass thermometer from the drawer, shook it, and handed it to Fang Wei.
Fang Wei came back with the thermometer to take Liu Zhiyi's temperature.
"Put it under your armpit."
"Uh-huh."
Liu Zhiyi nodded, took the thermometer, turned his back, pulled down his collar a little, stuffed the cold thermometer in, and tucked it under his armpit.
"Fang Wei, there are so many people, it may take a long time for us to wait..." Liu Zhiyi looked at them and said.
"It's okay. I'll go talk to him."
Fang Wei stood up and politely said to the other patients waiting in the clinic one by one:
"Uncle, aunt, grandpa, we are here to see a doctor. We have to go back to class later. Can we cut in line? We are here to see a doctor for a cold. It will be quick."
"It's okay, you go first."
"Okay, thank you very much!"
Seeing that the two men were young, wearing school uniforms, and still came to see the doctor by themselves, mainly because the young man was very polite and gave a good impression. We were all from the same village, so it was natural for him to help them a little.
Of course, Fang Wei did not forget to tell Dr. Yang.
Liu Zhiyi sat on the chair, quietly watching him busying around saying nice things to people. A warm feeling surged in her heart and her eyes were a little absent-minded.
She was the one who was sick and the one who treated the disease, but in the end, she still did all these things...
The girl's mood was a little complicated. At this moment, everyone else seemed to have blurred, and he was the only one left in her sight.
Soon, Fang Wei finished his greetings and returned to her side.
"Once Dr. Yang finishes seeing his patient, it will be our turn." Fang Wei said with a smile.
"Fang Wei, I..."
Liu Zhiyi looked at him for a long while before lowering her head and whispering, "Thank you for causing you so much trouble. It was obviously all my business, but you didn't even have time to rest at noon..."
Fang Wei said with a smile: "What's the big deal? We are desk mates and good friends. If Cai Ling and Ah Sheng were here, they would do the same."
But Cailing Asheng is not as reliable as you.
Liu Zhiyi didn't say this, but just nodded and secretly kept in mind this friendship.
Fang Wei reached out and touched her forehead.
“It’s still very hot.”
"..."
Although she was embarrassed to admit it, Liu Zhiyi really liked his action of touching her head and felt inexplicably doted on.
It’s a pity that Fang Wei didn’t keep touching her. After feeling the temperature, he withdrew his hand.
As soon as his hand left, the cold air outside covered the surface of his skin, and Liu Zhiyi felt empty.
"Fang Wei, how long will you keep the thermometer on?"
"Well, take it out and let me see it first, and then put it back later. I need to show it to Dr. Yang."
"Uh-huh."
Liu Zhiyi took out the thermometer from under his armpit.
Fang Wei held the glass thermometer, raised it to his eyes and looked at the red line.
"Thirty-eight degrees eight..."
“Is it high or low?”
"…That's pretty high. It's a good thing you've been holding back!"
"Huh? I'm...actually fine."
Fang Wei was speechless after listening to this, but you don’t look in good condition at all!
"Put it back."
"Uh-huh."
When I am sick, I always feel depressed for no apparent reason.
Liu Zhiyi looked very sleepy. He leaned back in the chair and curled himself up into a small ball. Due to the chills caused by the fever, he wanted to feel the temperature of others for no reason, so he subconsciously got very close to Fang Wei.
Feeling their shoulders touching each other, Fang Wei turned around and looked at her.
But I saw that Liu Zhiyi had closed his eyes and was dozing off, but he didn't dare to fall asleep. He closed his eyes for a while, then quickly opened his eyes. Then he felt sleepy again, and his eyelids gradually became heavy.
"Sleepy?"
"A bit..."
"Then you can sleep on my shoulder for a while, and I'll call you when you get there."
"..."
The girl said nothing, but looked up at him with her feverishly flushed face.
"It's okay, go to sleep, Cailing is usually like this."
"..."
Hearing that Cai Ling also felt the same way, Liu Zhiyi felt relieved.
Finally, I put more weight on him and leaned my head gently on his shoulder.
She felt extremely warm all over.
After a while, he fell asleep.
