Micro-check

The boy is Zhou Guangze, five years old, and Zhou's mother is only 29 years old, two years younger than Zhou Xun, but Zhou Xun feels that she looks older than his 50-year-old mother, so he can't help but sigh in his heart.

Because of the same surname, they will be closer.

When the little boy was discharged from the hospital, Zhou Xun changed shifts with another colleague in the department. He helped his colleague on the night shift, and just saved the day to go to Zhou Guangze's house.

He bought toys and snacks for the boy, and brought some hand sanitizer and laundry soap for his home.He drove to the CDC to pick up Mr. Yang, who brought a sample of items, followed him to the hospital, then picked up the three members of Zhou Guangze's family who were discharged from the hospital, and drove them back.

Zhou Guangze's family didn't live far away, but the transportation on the mountain was not as convenient as in the city. If the family didn't have a car, it would cost a lot of money to hail a car to enter the county town.

Although this money was very little for Zhou Xun, for Zhou Guangze's family, they were reluctant to spend it.

Zhou Xun is not good at talking with the parents of Zhou Guangze's family, so he doesn't know much about his family's situation, but Teacher Yang is a local, and he chatted with Zhou's mother and grandma Zhou as soon as he got in the car. It is clear, even the relationship between their family is very clear.

Zhou Xun, who was driving, had to admire Teacher Yang's ability to talk.

Zhou Guangze's father did work outside the home, but he didn't send much money back a year. The family still had land to grow vegetables for sale, and raised chickens and pigs.

Because the mountain is cool in summer, some vegetables that can only be grown in winter can have a good harvest here in summer.

It's just that vegetables are grown and sold to vegetable merchants at a cheap price, so there is not much income for a year.

On top of Zhou Guangze, he has two older sisters. The elder sister is ten years old and is in elementary school, and the second sister is seven or eight years old. She will start elementary school when school starts in September. All of these need money.

Zhou Xun was surprised and said, "You are not at home these few days, are the two children at home?"

"They can feed pigs and chickens, it's fine." Mother Zhou replied.

Zhou Xun is not worried about pigs and chickens, but about people.He reluctantly shut up.

The road didn’t lead to Zhou Guangze’s house, so Zhou Xun’s car stopped at a family on the side of the road, and he gave money to the family to look after the car. Then everyone carried their things, Zhou Xun helped carry Zhou Guangze on their backs, and walked to the side road. left his home.

Zhou’s family is a Han nationality, so the house is not a Tibetan style, and it is located at a lower altitude, with lush vegetation. In summer, unknown wild flowers are still blooming on the road, and the scenery is beautiful. If it is not so poor, this place is like a paradise on earth. up.

Of course, there are also very rich people here, but they are a minority.

When they arrived at Zhou's house, Zhou Xun and Teacher Yang took samples wherever they could.

Including his family's pigsty and chicken manure, as well as the family's table, stove, cupboard, water tank, etc., as well as the hands of his two sisters and the sleeves covered with black scabs.

Zhou Xun stood on the sill of his yard, looking at the mountains and the blue sky in the distance, his mood was not very open.

The eldest daughter of the Zhou family came over and asked him timidly if he wanted some water. Zhou Xun brought a kettle himself, so she refused the little girl, and asked her again: "Is the water you drink at home boiled?"

The little girl said: "You can drink cold water in summer."

Zhou Xun said: "Don't you have stomach pains and diarrhea when you drink cold water? Let's drink it after boiling it."

The little girl is in the second grade of elementary school. After school education, she knows how to answer other people's questions. She turned to Zhou Xun with a red face and said seriously, "I'm too lazy to boil the water. It will be fine after a few diarrhea." My younger sister and younger brother had diarrhea together, my mother and grandma took my younger brother to see a doctor, and my younger sister recovered at home."

Zhou Xun was surprised and sad, and said, "Your brother was fine at first, but then he started to have diarrhea again. Are the rest of you okay?"

The little girl said: "No."

Zhou Xun said: "Is there anything your brother eats that you and your sister don't eat?"

The little girl thought for a while and said, "Grandma doesn't give us eggs, so my younger brother eats them. If my younger brother doesn't want to eat them, I secretly give them to my younger sister."

Zhou Xun: "Do your eggs have to be boiled?"

The little girl shook her head.

Zhou Xun said: "Next time you have to cook it before eating it, you can't eat it raw, or you will get sick like your brother."

Zhou Xun didn't know what to say to them, so he just went to buy their eggs again and planned to test the eggs.

They also told their family members to boil water before drinking, cook eggs before eating, and wash their hands before eating, etc.

The things he sent to this family were also given to them, but his family should accept this kind of relief from time to time, so they didn't show any gratitude.

When Zhou Xun and Teacher Yang left, it was already afternoon, and they found a Tibetan restaurant on the way to have lunch. Teacher Yang took all the samples back to do training and separation, so Zhou Xun didn't have to do any more work.

Teacher Yang said: "It's useless to talk to those people. We do the work and tell them not to drink raw water, to eat fruit after washing, not to eat raw eggs, and not to sleep with dogs. No one listens. They don’t take parasitic diseases and these intestinal diseases seriously. The Han people are a little bit better, but others can’t say anything. Our work is very difficult. Seeing that they don’t want to boil water, we have also sent them with filters I don’t know if they will be of any use after we deliver them.”

Zhou Xun said: "It is useful to start with basic education. His two daughters are at least going to school, which is considered very good."

Teacher Yang said: "It's not easy for us to work here. Fortunately, you actually come to work here. I don't know how good C City is."

Zhou Xun said: "The scenery up here is very good, and the air is also good."

Teacher Yang said with a smile that he was in a good mood.

About four or five days later, Teacher Yang called Zhou Xun and said that she had done all the samples collected before.

In Zhou Guangze's house, bacteria strains were isolated from the dinner table, the cuffs and hands of his sister and sister's clothes, chicken feces, eggs, and water, and they were all the one infected by Zhou Guangze.

Teacher Yang said: "I asked the second child of her family. She raised chickens and probably got the infection from the chickens. If you have her family's phone number, talk to her family and ask them to dispose of the chickens." , The house needs to be disinfected."

Zhou Xun sighed, "They probably won't do it, so I'll go to their house. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be infected again."

Teacher Yang said: "You are so kind-hearted, you can only be tired." After that, I stopped talking with him.

No one in the boy's family had a mobile phone, and he didn't leave his contact information in the hospital, so Zhou Xun had to bring some more things, and took a day to go to his house.

Zhou's mother and grandma welcomed him, because he brought a lot of things.

He sterilized Zhou's family at the most basic level, and bought chickens from his family that were obviously sick. Zhou Xun didn't know how to deal with these chickens, so he sent them to the guard at the entrance of the hospital and asked him to help them raise them. In the cage in the woods behind the hospital, the guard there also raised a chicken, so it wasn't too much trouble.

Zhou Xun disinfected the chicken cages every day, and fed the chickens with medicated feed. After about half a month, Zhou Xun stopped feeding the chickens, and their feces were tested to no longer contain Salmonella.

The guard took Zhou Xun's money and helped Zhou Xun raise chickens, saying that whenever Zhou Xun wanted to eat, he asked him to help kill them and take them back to eat.

Zhou Xun didn't know what to do with these chickens. He asked him to kill them, but he couldn't kill them. As a result, he became a pet and went to see the chickens twice a day.

When Zhou Ning heard about him, she thought it was funny, and said to him when she called: "Just send him to the vegetable market and kill him."

Zhou Xun was standing by the side of the chicken coop watching what the chickens were eating, and said, "I fed them a lot of antibiotics, so it's better not to eat them. It's a pity to kill them. Let's keep them like this. I don't know how long the lifespan of chickens is." .”

Zhou Ning smiled and said, "It must have been ten years or so."

Zhou Xun was now worried, "Then what to do, I can't keep them for so long."

Zhou Ning said, "Let's keep it for as long as it lasts."

Zhou Xun had no choice but to do so.

However, he soon had other worries. The guard went back to his hometown for a few days because of something, and the chickens raised soon lost two. Zhou Xun thought it was the chickens that ran away. , all the chickens in the coop disappeared.

Zhou Xun said to his colleagues in the laboratory: "I didn't look at it, and those chickens didn't know where they ran away. They obviously blocked the big hole in the cage."

Colleagues laughed at him: "Mr. Zhou, you are so...those chickens must have been stolen."

Only then did Zhou Xun react, "Steal?"

"That's right. Now they are either boiled and eaten, or sold in the market."

Zhou Xun sighed, "I've been fed a lot of antibiotics."

The colleague said: "You can't control it now. Just don't think about it."

Zhou Xun: "..."

After feeding for a few days, I have already developed feelings, but suddenly there is no need to feed. Zhou Xun told Zhou Ning about this on the phone at night. He was disappointed that the chicken was gone, and worried about those who ate chicken.

Zhou Ning had no choice but to comfort him: "Don't think too much about it. The chickens on the market today have not been fed antibiotics. Besides, since they are going to be stolen, they deserve it."

"I'm afraid it's going to be sold." Zhou Xun let it go after a few sighs, and said, "Anyway, you won't die if you eat it, forget it."
