Chapter 19 Women Hold Up Half the Sky
"Yes, I think Lin Wan is right. Men work hard to earn money outside, and we women can't be lazy either."
"There's nothing shameful about improving your family's life with your own hands," Liu Guiying said, giving her full support.
Not everyone in the military family compound is rich. Many of the women are military wives from the countryside, with a large number of children. They rely solely on their husbands to earn money to support their families, and they live a very frugal life.
Previously, they had been "imprisoned" by the prestige expected of military wives, but upon hearing Jiang Linwan's words, they mustered their courage and stood up one by one: "I think Linwan is right. We women can also earn money to support our families, and there's nothing shameful about it."
"Lin Wan, can you wait for me? I want to go beachcombing with you."
"I'll come too, Lin Wan, please take me with you."
Song Manru was speechless after being rebuked by her. Seeing that everyone was siding with Jiang Linwan, the feigned friendliness on her face could no longer be maintained. She turned around and left in a disheveled state with red eyes.
The nurses who were discussing it earlier gave Jiang Linwan a thumbs up. Lu Tuan's wife is too amazing. They also disliked Song Manru's arrogant attitude. If you go back a few generations, whose family wasn't a farmer?
Jiang Linwan turned to look at Liu Guiying; this was the place she had found.
"Hurry up, ladies! If we're late, the tide will come in and we'll have nothing left," Liu Guiying urged, pulling Jiang Linwan into the service shop to buy a pair of rain boots.
Upon hearing Liu Guiying's words, the women rushed home. Soon after, panting, they followed Liu Guiying to the beach.
As soon as the group arrived, many locals recognized them as military wives from the island, and they were all very excited.
The soldiers on the island guarded their island and saved countless villagers. In their eyes, the wives of the soldiers on the island were high above them and unapproachable. Now, they were actually here to go beachcombing.
They stared at each other curiously, but dared not step forward to speak.
But they weren't afraid of Liu Guiying, a familiar military wife, and instead gathered around her curiously, asking, "Are all these the wives (or sisters) from your family compound?"
"Yes, that's right. We've all come to learn how to beachcomb from you. You won't be unwelcome to us, will you?" Liu Guiying joked.
The villagers immediately shook their heads: "How could that be? You men are the guardians of our safety, we'd love to give you all the seafood we find."
"That won't do, we can't accept bribes," Liu Guiying said sternly, then pulled Jiang Linwan aside and introduced her: "This is your regimental commander's wife."
Lu Qiyue was not only well-known in the army and navy, but also deeply loved by the people, and many villagers had received his help.
They were all extremely grateful to Lu Tuan, and when they saw Lu Tuan's wife looking so beautiful, they all stared at her with curiosity.
Just as she was about to speak, a scream suddenly came from not far away. A woman saw a grouper stranded in the seawater, but did not notice the large jellyfish floating over. Her arm was fiercely wrapped by the tentacles, and large red, swollen blisters instantly appeared. She was in so much pain that she was trembling all over.
Those around panicked. Some wanted to rinse the affected area with seawater, but Jiang Linwan quickly stopped them: "You can't use fresh water or seawater, it will worsen the poisoning!"
She quickly found some dry sand and washed away the remaining jellyfish stings: "Do you have any baijiu or rice wine?"
"I have rice wine." Getting injured while beachcombing is common, so people usually carry some liquor or rice wine with them to disinfect their hands.
Jiang Linwan took the rice wine and poured it on the woman's wound, then took out the medicinal powder she carried with her and sprinkled it on the wound: "Go to the hospital to get it bandaged, and don't let your arm get seawater on it."
The woman felt the pain in her arm subside, looked at Jiang Linwan with gratitude, and turned to head towards the shore.
The other women and military wives, seeing Jiang Linwan, surrounded her in shock: "Linwan, you actually know medicine!"
Liu Guiying explained with a proud look: "Yes, when I was on a boat with my daughter, I got seasick. After taking the medicine Lin Wan gave me, I felt better immediately."
The expressions on everyone's faces changed instantly, and they were filled with awe.
The island is not only lacking in resources, but also in teachers and doctors. Everyone dislikes the environment and wants to leave the island, so teachers and doctors from outside are even less willing to come.
Islanders are also prone to injury, and the lack of doctors to save lives makes them especially scarce, gradually turning them into a rare and protected "species".
While I was out at the beach, news of Jiang Lin's medical skills spread through the family compound.
In the afternoon, the group returned home carrying loads of seafood.
When she returned, Jiang Linwan distributed the medicinal powder she had prepared to her sisters-in-law: "This is the medicinal powder I made myself. It can be used for cuts and stings from the sea. It can stop bleeding, reduce swelling, and even detoxify from sea poison. You don't need to go to the clinic."
However, you should pay attention to hygiene and prevent the wound from getting infected.
The women accepted the medicinal powder with gratitude, each wanting to give Jiang Linwan the fruits of their afternoon beachcombing.
Jiang Linwan didn't need so many things, and she had her own reasons for giving away those medicinal powders.
Maybe it can help her find a job.
She waved her hand and refused, and then the news spread among the island's fishermen that Commander Lu had married a beautiful wife who was not only beautiful and kind but also skilled in medicine.
The medicinal powder they developed is also very effective.
The woman who went to the clinic for treatment that afternoon praised Jiang Linwan to the skies. While Dr. Chen's daughter was bandaging her wound, she said, "Alright, ma'am, she's just Commander Lu's wife. We all know how capable Commander Lu is."
But you don't need to praise his wife so much just because you love her.
The wound was indeed treated well, but this is a basic procedure for doctors, and Chen Ximei wasn't particularly impressed.
What kind of medical skills could a girl in her early twenties, the same age as her, possibly have? She would probably only know how to treat a simple wound.
However, there is a shortage of doctors. If Commander Lu's wife were willing to work at their hospital, the situation would be easier for the other staff members.
Chen Ximei immediately went to find her father and told him what had just happened. Dean Chen frowned slightly: "Those women in the family compound are all very arrogant. Do you think they would want to come here?"
"Ximei, you're just making things difficult for your dad. Lu Tuan is so powerful, arranging a job for his wife in the military region would be a piece of cake. She definitely wouldn't come here." The middle-aged man with glasses and a medical book in hand chuckled.
Chen Ximei glared at the two of them: "I was just thinking you could have an easier time. If it doesn't work out, then forget it."
Jiang Linwan was unaware that the job she wanted had slipped through her fingers.
She got home around 6 p.m., cleaned the seafood, kept some for dinner, and planned to dry and calcine the rest for medicinal use.
After dinner was finished, Lu Qiyue returned just then, carrying a roast chicken which he handed to Jiang Linwan.
"Let's have an extra meal tonight."
Seeing that Jiang Linwan's previous agitation had dissipated, Lu Qiyue finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that as long as he didn't have much contact with the little girl, his self-control was still intact.
"Okay." Jiang Linwan brought all the food to the table and helped him hang his coat inside. "Let's eat."
After dinner, I lay in bed, and that feeling of heat from before returned...
