Chapter 160 Heimlich Maneuver? No, it's called Wang's Maneuver now
Middle Court.
Silly Zhu's house.
After the two of them drank a few glasses of wine and ate a few bites of food, Sha Zhu suddenly sighed, then changed the subject and wanted Wang Mengde to help him find a wife.
Sure enough, he guessed that the wine was not drunk for no reason.
There really is something to find him.
"Shazhu, when it comes to finding a partner, you have to rely on yourself. No one else can help you. Besides, Aunt Yi has introduced you to many girls in the past two years, but it didn't work out in the end.
You should summarize the reasons more, maybe you can be the next blind date partner."
Wang Mengde shook his head.
He didn't want to get involved in such a thankless task.
It's just Sha Zhu's temper and foul mouth, and Xu Damao who are interfering in the middle.
It goes without saying that Shazhu’s next blind date will be another mess.
"Well, alas!"
Hearing Wang Mengde say this, Sha Zhu sighed with disappointment.
Then he started drinking to drown his sorrows. He picked up the wine glass and kept pouring it into his mouth, not even eating the food on the table.
Recently, Xu Damao has been showing off in front of him, relying on the fact that he has a wife.
This made him so angry that his teeth itched, but unfortunately there was nothing he could do.
"Haha, Silly Zhu, you didn't find the right person. You shouldn't have asked me for advice. You should have gone to the deaf old lady in the backyard."
After taking a few bites of the food, Wang Mengde felt obliged to speak highly of the guest, so he gave some pointers as a way of returning the favor.
As for whether Sha Zhu listens or not, and whether he can follow through after listening, that is his own business.
"Looking for the deaf old lady?"
Sha Zhu's hand holding the wine glass paused, and his face became thoughtful.
Before, the deaf old lady had advised him several times and given him some suggestions, but he had always ignored them.
Now Wang Mengde’s words made him react.
Be prepared to wait and go to the backyard to ask for advice.
After eating and drinking, Wang Mengde returned home and planned to take a nap, but the room was so hot and stuffy that he broke out in a sweat just sitting there, let alone sleeping.
So he took a straw mat and a cattail leaf fan, led his two younger brothers and two sons, went out of the yard, and came to the big locust tree at the entrance of the alley.
At this time, many neighbors nearby gathered under several large locust trees to enjoy the cool air. Some lay on mats, some sat on benches doing needlework, and some played chess.
A dozen half-grown children were running around nearby, not caring about the heat.
When they saw them coming, whether they were familiar or somewhat familiar, or strangers, they all rushed to greet him.
Now he is a celebrity in this area. Everyone knows that in No. 95 Courtyard, there was a doctor with outstanding medical skills. He is not only handsome but also has superb medical skills.
Wang Mengde also greeted them one by one with a smile, then spread out the mats and let his two sons lie under the shade of the tree. He stood by and watched others play chess.
As for the two younger brothers, they had already mixed in with the group of other kids and were having fun.
Just as he was watching with great interest.
Suddenly, my daughter-in-law's voice came from behind.
"Meng De, the weather is so hot, you must be thirsty. I brought you some tea."
Wang Mengde turned around and saw He Shengnan standing behind him, looking at him with a smile on her face.
In his hand he was holding high an enamel jar, which was half filled with herbal tea.
The bright red words on the enamel pot were intentionally or unintentionally displayed to the people looking at her.
This enamel pot was the prize that Wang Mengde won at the National Model Worker Commendation Conference last year.
"Shengnan, it's so hot, why are you here?"
"I came to bring you some herbal tea. You left in such a hurry that you forgot to take the teacup.
By the way, my mother is here, and she is taking care of our daughter. She is so happy to see grandma."
He Shengnan narrowed her eyes, smiled, and spoke softly.
After everyone saw the words on the cup clearly and showed envious eyes, she contentedly stuffed the enamel cup into her man's hands.
"Meng De, you play here, I'm going back first."
Having said that, he turned around and walked towards home.
After she left, Wang Mengde continued to stand by and watch the two old men play chess.
From time to time, he would hold the enamel pot and take a sip of herbal tea.
Last year, due to the "grain-first" policy, tea fields were drastically reduced and replaced with crops, resulting in a sharp drop in production. Coupled with the need to export and earn foreign exchange, tea has become very scarce in the market.
Since the beginning of this year, tea has been classified as a second-category commodity, and the purchase of tea has also begun to be quantified. One needs to hold a "Beijing City Residents' Non-staple Food Shopping Card", and each household can only buy one or two taels of tea per month, and most of them are high-quality small quantities.
Therefore, many people have no tea to drink and can only find other substitutes.
Some people use leaves of other plants instead, such as mulberry leaves, etc. Some people dig up Chinese herbs such as dandelions, dry them and drink them as tea.
But Wang Mengde has no shortage of it, and he can often get some help from Mr. Pu and President Lu.
Anyway, the two of them have other channels, so they don't lack this little tea.
Moreover, most of these teas are high-quality.
He stayed at the entrance of the alley until almost five o'clock. The sun was about to set. Wang Yuanxun and Wang Yuandi had already woken up and were playing around his legs.
Seeing that it was getting late, Wang Mengde packed up his mat, greeted his two younger brothers who were not far away, and then slowly walked towards home.
home.
In the living room, my mother-in-law, Zhou Xiaoyan, was sitting on a chair, cutting vegetables with a kitchen knife in one hand.
Seeing them coming in, he smiled and said, "Meng De is back. Get some cold water to wash your face. The food will be ready soon."
"Okay, Mom."
In the bedroom, He Yanan heard the noise and ran out with a palm-leaf fan.
"Brother-in-law, you're back."
"Yanan, why didn't you come with your sister to the entrance of the alley to find me this afternoon?"
Seeing a layer of fine beads of sweat on his sister-in-law's forehead, Wang Mengde said with a smile.
"Brother-in-law, Yaya is sleeping in the bedroom. It's too hot. I want to stay at home and fan her."
He Yanan raised her little face and said with a smile.
These were what Zhou Xiaoyan specifically told her before she came here, telling her that once she got here, she must be diligent, as her brother-in-law was a capable man and would be able to find her a good job if she just took good care of him.
With the example of her elder brother He Shengwen, she believed it without a doubt.
So, when I got here in the afternoon, I didn't go out, but stayed in the bedroom, fanning my niece.
"Yanan, you've worked hard. Take a break. I'll get you something delicious."
Wang Mengde praised her, then took the palm-leaf fan from her hand and walked into the bedroom.
He was going to take some glutinous rice noodles out of the box as a reward to his sister-in-law, and then go to see his own daughter.
When he came out with the glutinous rice noodles wrapped in oil paper, He Yanan's eyes widened and she exclaimed, "Wow, glutinous rice noodles!"
This year, due to the shortage of grain and oil, cakes and pastries require a certificate to buy. She hasn't eaten cakes and biscuits for two or three months. She didn't expect her brother-in-law to take out so many glutinous rice sticks.
Several other children also came over after hearing the news. They stood in a row, looking at the things in his hands expectantly, and began to swallow their saliva. "The four of you divide it equally. Yanan has worked hard today, so you should get more."
Wang Mengde placed the glutinous rice noodles on the table and divided them into five piles, four of which had the same quantity, to prevent them from arguing over who had more and who had less.
The remaining pile was twice as much.
"Thank you, brother-in-law."
He Yanan thanked happily.
Then he picked up one and put it to Wang Mengde's mouth.
After my brother-in-law had eaten, I couldn't wait to pick one up and started eating it in small bites.
Thursday.
That evening, after dinner, Wang Mengde came out of the house holding a palm-leaf fan. He happened to see Banggeng and hurriedly ran out of Shazhu's house.
He was holding a lunch box in his hand.
This was brought back by Shazhu from the steel mill canteen.
Shaking his head, Wang Mengde thought to himself, it's true that a dog will always eat shit.
His words were a double entendre, referring to Shazhu and Banggeng.
As far as he knew, after Sha Zhu had a drink with him that day, he went to the backyard to find the deaf old lady.
The deaf old lady was overjoyed to see that her eldest grandson had become smart and actually came to ask her for advice. She hurriedly told him some experiences and precautions.
One of them is to stay away from the old Jia family.
Unfortunately, Shazhu listened with one ear and ignored it with the other. When he saw Qin Huairu, he was so fascinated by her that he lost his way and had completely forgotten what the deaf old lady had said.
Today, he brought back half a chicken that was withheld from the company, but before he could eat it, half of it was taken away by Bang Geng.
Wang Mengde didn't care about Sha Zhu's behavior. It wasn't like he couldn't get a wife anyway.
So he continued walking towards the front yard.
I arrived at the front yard and chatted briefly with my neighbor. Just as I was about to walk out the gate, I heard a noisy sound coming from the middle yard.
Faintly, he heard Qin Huairu's crying and Jia Zhang's angry cursing.
Wang Mengde was afraid that it might be related to his family, so he turned around and walked quickly towards the central courtyard.
When we arrived at the middle courtyard, we saw Qin Huairu squatting on the ground, hugging Xiaodang and placing her on her knees. She was crying anxiously and patting her back randomly with her hands.
Jia Dongxu, on the other hand, stood there at a loss, looking completely panicked.
It was Jia Zhang who was sitting on the ground, clapping her hands on the ground, facing the direction of Sha Zhu's family, cursing loudly.
She said that Shazhu used chicken bones to harm her granddaughter.
His heart sank, and Wang Mengde didn't care about his bad relationship with the Jia family. He hurried forward and carefully checked Xiaodang's condition.
Xiao Dang's face was blue and purple, and his hands were subconsciously grabbing around. It was obvious that something was stuck in his throat and he was about to pass out.
Seeing that a life was about to be lost, in a critical situation, he didn't even think twice and directly took Xiaodang from Qin Huairu's lap, while quickly explaining:
"I'll save her."
As he spoke, he first took a horse stance, and then let Xiaodang ride on his thighs, with his head facing the direction of his knees, with his head low and his back high.
With your other hand, make an empty fist and then repeatedly tap your back, starting from the hips and moving toward the neck.
After a few times, when she saw a chicken bone, Xiaodang spat it out from her mouth, and soon, her clear cry was heard.
Wang Mengde let out a long sigh and put her down carefully.
Because of his nervousness, he felt that his back was wet and his forehead was covered with sweat.
At this time, everyone reacted.
Qin Huairu's face was full of gratitude. She hugged Xiaodang, looked left and right, and found that her daughter had returned to normal. She immediately knelt down.
Jia Dongxu stood aside, his expression changing constantly, and finally gritted his teeth and whispered, "Thank you."
The other neighbors who were watching were all feeling fortunate and praising Wang Mengde as the reincarnation of "Hua Tuo and Bian Que".
After what happened, and with his entire body drenched in sweat, Wang Mengde naturally couldn't go out for a stroll anymore.
In the evening, Qin Huairu brought Xiaodang to his home again, kowtowed to him several times, and then expressed her gratitude profusely.
the next day.
morning.
In Mr. Pu’s office.
When Wang Mengde told him about the rescue yesterday, Pu Lao nodded and said with approval, "Yes, you handled it in a timely and correct manner."
"Sir, through yesterday's first aid, I have summarized some experience, and at the same time, I have a new idea, that is, to update the Barefoot Doctor's Manual and add a first aid chapter to it."
"Oh, that's a good idea."
After thinking about it, Pu Lao agreed.
"You plan to add those first aid methods in it, so you have to be careful."
"Sir, I have some ideas in mind. I plan to write eight first aid tips first.
They are cardiopulmonary resuscitation, first aid for foreign objects stuck in the throat, burns, nosebleeds, fractures, fish bones, sprained ankles, and dog bites.
As for the rest, I will continue to add more information while I am writing and looking for cases and relevant experience.”
Wang Mengde replied.
Last night, while lying in bed, he searched through space for some first aid knowledge from his previous life, and planned to compile a first aid chapter based on the actual situation of this era.
In particular, the 'Heimlich maneuver' is very common in daily life, and countless lives are saved every year by this maneuver.
However, the 'Heimlich Maneuver' was only invented in 1974. If he were to use it now, it certainly wouldn't be called that.
Therefore, he planned to call this first aid method "Wang's First Aid Method".
"Meng De, as long as you have an idea, just tell me what you need me to do."
Pu Lao said with satisfaction.
This disciple made him so proud.
He is only in his twenties, but he has already achieved so much, much more than most people achieve in their entire lives.
And it is still in a state of continued high productivity.
I really can't imagine what he will be like when he reaches my age.
"Sir, I have several junior students who can help me, but they are inexperienced. I also need support from some people in the institute, preferably someone who has experience in compiling the Barefoot Doctor Manual."
Wang Mengde said directly.
He now has limited energy and time, and urgently needs some experienced doctors to act as "coolies" to undertake some tedious and meticulous work.
"Haha, that's definitely no problem. I'll go talk to Dean Lu about this later."
Pu Lao said with a smile.
In the Chinese Medical Research Institute, there are many people who are willing to help their apprentices.
Several leaders of the research institute also hope that Wang Mengde will have ideas every day and produce research results.
Back to my office.
Wang Mengde took out paper and pen, and began to write "Wang's First Aid Method".
He did not intend to rely on anyone else for this first aid method, but planned to complete it independently.
