The patient was in critical condition, with severe lung disease and bedsores, a foul stench, knotted hair, filthy, and unconscious. Chen Yan immediately asked the nurses to carry the patient in for treatment, and personally used a large syringe to connect the rubber tube to suck sputum, and the mucus full of toadstools flowed sideways, and the nurses hurriedly put on masks and gloves, but Chen Yan didn't care at all.

After sucking out a pile of thick phlegm, the patient recovered a little and struggled to leave, saying that he could not afford to see a doctor and could not burden his son, who was a young worker in work clothes, knelt in front of the hospital bed and cried: "Mother, I will also see you if I smash the pot and sell iron." ”

Chen Yan has been diagnosed with pneumonia, which is not a fatal disease abroad, but it is still one of the most fatal diseases in China, and she told the nurse: "Penicillin 500,000 units, intramuscular injection." ”

Hearing the words penicillin, the worker's eyes widened: "I want to ...... How much does it cost? A pair of hands involuntarily pinched the empty pockets.

Chen Yan said: "Don't want money. ”

The worker said, "Then what do you want?" ”

Chen Yan said: "Free medical care, don't want anything." ”

Watching the nurse inhale the gold-expensive imported penicillin into a syringe and inject it into her mother, the worker couldn't help but moisten his eyes, and lay down in front of the bed and said, "Mother, I gave you penicillin, the American panacea, one injection is good." ”

Chen Yan said with a smile: "One injection is not good, it will take a week in a row, and the patient's living environment and hygiene habits must also be improved, otherwise it will happen again." ”

The patient learned that he was given penicillin, and his spirit immediately improved, it seems that the psychological effect of the miracle medicine is greater than the pathological effect, and the old woman is grateful: "Erxi, don't kowtow to the living Bodhisattva." ”

Erxi tears rippled in his eyes, Chen Yan, who was wearing a white coat in a haze, was beautiful and holy, really like the Bodhisattva Guanyin who saved the suffering, he knelt down and kowtowed: "Bodhisattva, thank you for your great mercy and compassion for saving my mother's life." ”

Chen Yan hurriedly helped: "Hurry up, these are the business of our medical workers." ”

Erxi said: "I'm a poor bastard, I don't have anything, I just have two arms and stupid strength, and I will do the dirty work here in the future, and I will do it alone!" ”

……

In the evening, a meeting was being held in a shack on the river beach, and the bearded man said: "Recently, the form of struggle has changed, the enemy has sent a Rausch medical team to divide and disintegrate the masses, many people are greedy for small profits and are deceived by them, we must take action, I suggest, take advantage of the darkness to burn the medical team." ”

A few guys dressed as workers were gearing up and echoed each other.

"I'm against it!" It was Yang Shugen who spoke, "Although the behavior of the medical team will bring some resistance to our work, it is essentially good for the masses, and we are not capable of saving people, so how can we stop others from saving people." ”

Yang Shugen, an organizationally commissioner sent to the Beitai Industrial Zone, spoke on behalf of the party, and the workers' activists accepted it, although there was some resistance.

Unbeknownst to the medical team, they escaped.

The next morning, Yang Shugen also came to the vicinity of the medical team, and watched Chen Yan diagnose the poor people from a distance.

"Chen Yan is a kind girl, but she was born to the wrong family, and it is her personal tragedy to be born in such a reactionary family." Poplar Root muttered to himself.

Suddenly, he was slapped on the shoulder, and Yang Shugen stumbled and almost fell down, and when he looked back, it was Ma Chunhua.

"What are you looking at, do you want to see a doctor too?" Ma Chunhua wore an apron and held a green onion in her hand, which she nibbled as a fruit.

Yang Shugen said angrily: "I'm wondering, are these people good people?" ”

Ma Chunhua took a bite of the green onion and said with a big grin: "What is there to ponder about this, when you do good things, you are a good person, and when you do bad things, you are a bad person, it's as simple as that." ”

Yang Shugen was a little surprised, this seemingly rough woman actually said such philosophical words, he had the heart to test Ma Chunhua, "Chunhua, I have a question for you, when giving cultural tutorials to workers, they are always absent, otherwise they will be absent-minded, how can this situation be reversed." Ma Chunhua said disdainfully: "If you talk about the old master's set, who likes to listen to it, you have to talk about Dou Erdun vs. Huang Tianba, Sun Monkey Xitian learned scriptures, and the workers love to listen to it." ”

Yang Shugen laughed: "I am a night school culture teacher, not a storyteller...... Oops, Chunhua, I suddenly understood, thank you! After saying that, he ran away.

"I'm shocked, I'm going to take it." Ma Chunhua looked at the poplar roots in the distance, and took another bite of the green onion, which was crispy.

Just as Chen Bei came out of the tent, shook his hair, put on toad sunglasses, popped out a camel cigarette and lit it, saw Ma Chunhua in the distance, and greeted her friendly: "Hello." ”

Ma Chunhua was angry when she saw him as a playboy, smacked the ground, turned around and left.

Chen Bei shrugged, wondering how he had provoked this village girl.

……

Jiangbei United Machinery Company Cultural Night School, as usual, only a few workers were done in the class, a few male workers in the front row yawned for days, and a few female workers in the back got together to play sweaters and peel beans.

Yang Shugen tapped on the table: "Workers, before today's class, I want to tell you a story. ”

The workers looked at Mr. Yang suspiciously, and said in their hearts what happened to him today, did he eat the wrong thing or what?

Yang Shugen coughed dryly and began to speak: "It is said that there was a big warlord named Zhang Zongchang in Shandong back then, he didn't know three things, the first didn't know how much money he had, the second didn't know how many soldiers he had, and the third was that he didn't know how many aunts and wives he had. ”

The workers laughed, it would be good for ordinary people to marry a wife, but if they could marry an aunt's wife, they would be landlords, so many that they don't know the number, how confused this warlord must be.

Yang Shugen was secretly happy in his heart, it seemed that he had chosen the right method, as he narrated, bursts of laughter broke out in the classroom from time to time, and the workers who passed by outside were also curious, and they were reluctant to leave when they came in, and slowly the classroom was full of people.

After the story was told, the workers coaxed: "Teacher Yang, tell me one more." ”

Yang Shugen said: "Okay, I'll tell you one more, I just said the joke of Zhang Zongchang, the overseer of Shandong, now let's talk about the story of the Jiangdong overseer and Chen Dashuai, but you have to keep it secret for me, and let the boss know that I told Chen Zikun's joke, and I must be fired." ”

There was another round of good-natured laughter, and a young worker said: "Teacher Yang, you put a hundred hearts in and out, we can't remember this ear in and out of that ear." ”

Everyone laughed, and Yang Shugen also laughed, and said: "Okay, I'll start talking, and I won't tell you that I worked as a gardener in the Chen family when I was a child, and I know some things about their family...... What does the Chen family's aunt and wife use for bathing, guess what? ”

"If you want me to say, you have to drop a small half bottle of toilet water in the wooden basin." A female worker said.

"Cut, guess blindly, the wives of big families, how can they use a wooden basin for bathing, they are all bathhouses, and they can be washed casually." A male worker retorted.

Yang Shugen smiled: "Everyone guessed wrong, rich people don't go to the bathhouse outside, it's dirty, people wash in their own bathrooms, they use white jade bathtubs, pure gold faucets, bath water is even worse, use fresh milk, sprinkle rose petals, take a bath to five maids to serve, how much does it cost to take a bath, you guess." ”

"At least ten oceans......"

"If you can't stop it, it's a lot of milk in a jar alone, and it's estimated that it's thirty oceans."

The workers were very interested in such guessing questions, but they couldn't always guess correctly.

Poplar Root held up a finger: "A bath costs a gold bar." ”

There was a gasp below, the common people couldn't even eat, not to mention the milk used in the official's bath, it cost a gold bar to wash once, is this still a human life, and the gods are just like that.

Some people questioned: "A vat of milk can't be that expensive, right?" ”

Yang Shugen said disdainfully: "Do you think it's ordinary milk, it's foreign milk imported from the United States, and it can make the skin whiter when washed, and it's ten years younger." ”

The workers were stunned for a while, but Mr. Yang still knew more.

One worker wondered, "I don't understand, why can't rich people live, and take a bath with milk, that is to be damned." ”

Yang Shugen said: "This worker, you got to the point, the chaebols and warlords control the country, they waste our hard-earned money, our factory and the workers of the iron factory, why can't they eat enough and don't warm up, because most of the heads have been looted from above, and now I will tell you what is surplus value......

After class, there was still a group of young workers around Yang Shugen to ask questions, Yang Shugen smiled: "Since you are so studious, let's form an interest group, let's continue to talk in my dormitory, I invite you to eat peanuts." ”

When the workers came to the dormitory, Yang Shugen took out cigarettes and peanuts to greet everyone, sat on the bed and opened his mouth: "Do you know the Soviet Union, it is a country composed of poor people, and the Soviet Union is the party of the poor, specializing in reforming the lives of the rich......"

A worker asked: "Mr. Yang, you said the Soviet Union so well, is it the Soviet Union or the United States?" ”

Yang Shugen said: "I don't know who is powerful, let me tell you a fact, the United States and Japan fought a war, fought for three years without winning, the Soviet Union's Generalissimo Stalin announced the dispatch of troops, less than a week, guess what?" ”

The workers' eyes widened and they waited for the rest of the story.

Yang Shugen slapped his thigh: "In less than a week, the Kwantung Army collapsed and Japan surrendered. ”

The worker who asked the question just now scratched his head and smiled innocently: "I know, the Soviet Union is still powerful." ”

Yang Shugen smiled but did not speak.

The next day, the night school hall was full, the windows were full of people, and the workers after work were idle, they all came to listen to Yang Shugen's storytelling, looking at a pair of eager eyes, Yang Shugen knew that his efforts were not in vain.
