They saw a powdered dumpling doll sticking her head out of the ox cart, with a pursed small mouth and a serious expression, staring straight at the doctor across her.
Funny, but thwarted anyone from wanting to laugh. Such a tiny figurine, now knows what separation from life and death is.
The old doctor surnamed Hu is the master of the Nanfeng medical center.
It has been more than 20 years since the medical center opened in Wutong Town. There have been countless cases and family members that have gone under his hands. But this was the first time he has met such.
The milk doll looks like only about two years old.
Stood there, very short and small.
The beams of light from shops on both sides of the street shrouded the face of that tiny child. The dimness hid her features, but her glossy eyes sparkled and couldn"t be hidden in the dark.
Her calmness and persistence was simply beyond her age.
Especially with her eyes trained on him.
Dr. Hu sighed, walked up and raised her hand and stroked the little baby"s head. “Baby, it"s not that this old man doesn"t want to save your grandpa, it"s … Be good, go home with your family, go home with your grandpa …”
The cruel parting farewell that he habitually says refused to come out, it"s too cruel and he doesn"t want to vanquish the light in this baby"s eyes.
The crowd around the gazed on this scene and shook their heads and sighed.
"The adults, hurry and bring the child down. You can"t scare the kid."
“Doctor Hu medicine is the best pract.i.tioner in the whole town. If he said that there is no way, then there is no way. Don"t drag it on, take the old man home quickly, what could children understand.”
“Yeah, it"s too pitiful…”
Ignoring those admonitions, Liu Yusheng threw out one hand and clutched the doctor"s sleeve, while her other hand kept holding the wild pear in her arms. She pulled the doctor forward vigorously, “Save, save! Can save!”
Grandma Liu, who was still slumped, noticed this exchange where the little baby girl on the cart was pulling the doctor desperately, and tears shed anew. Liu Dalin and Liu Erlin"s eyes were red, and Chen Xiulan, who could barely stand averted her head quietly, unable to bear watching any further.
The old doctor shook his head helplessly, and shot a look at the old man lying on the ox cart in consolation. When he was about to take back his gaze, his eyes widened. He looked over in surprise, then stretched out his hand, to examine his pulse!
“This, this …” He was astounded, and then he couldn"t help but explore more. Then he exclaimed, “Hurry up, bring him into the hospital!”
In a stroke, everyone around was caught in a jumble.
The first to recover were Liu Dalin and Liu Erlin, who then climbed up to the ox cart and lifted the old man, flying towards the inner hall of the medical center.
They were about to be driven away earlier, but now they were asked to carry the old man in. They couldn"t understand what"s going on, but one point they deduced was that there was hope for the injury of the old man!
Otherwise, Doctor Hu would never order them to smash his own reputation like this!
Grandma Liu and Chen Xiulan exchanged glances for half a beat, and their empty eyes instantly were filled with hope!
“He definitely can be saved … It must be, it must be!” Grandma Liu scrambled up and wept, “Hurry, Xiulan, take Nannan, let"s go in!”
"Hmm! Hum!" Chen Xiulan was so excited that she couldn"t say a word. She nodded, grabbed the little girl in the cart, and almost darted into the inner hall.
Outside, the onlookers did not immediately disperse. Someone who had been declared hopeless was suddenly taken back to the hospital.
This turning point involves the people"s hearts, so they wanted to wait to see the results.
"Isn"t it strange, do you think it"s a miracle?"
“I think that little baby is a blessed baby. Once she came, people could be saved!”
“Yes, this is a miracle. If he couldn"t be saved, would Doctor Hu admit him again? That would be asking for trouble himself!”
In the inner hall, Dr. Hu"s face was somber and diligent again, and his eyes continued to s.h.i.+ne in wonder as he went through the same procedure. “Strange, it"s strange, why is this …”
He"s well aware of his medical expertise.
His previous diagnosis of the old man was that his five viscera and six bowels were dislocated. There was also a rupture internally and his pulse was faint, he could hardly detect it. Now, going through another examination, his pulse has become stronger, and his internal injury seemed to be healing!
The most peculiar thing is that this healing continues to rise!
A severely injured patient who was clearly beyond medical care, is now only suffering minor injuries …
If not confident of his own expertise, he would have thought that he had misdiagnosed!
The most daunting to treat was internal organ rupture, but they are healing automatically, this simply is a miracle.
The light of his eyes flickered slightly. Doctor Hu set off to unravel the gauze on Grandpa Liu"s head. His eyes solidified the moment they fell on the crack there!
The original wound, the size of a fist, has been reduced by half at this time, and only a thin layer of scar was formed on the wound! The impact of this dejavu was more intense compared to the automatic healing of his internal injuries, this was simply mind-blowing!
How could this be possible!
Thinking back on the little baby girl, who insisted that he could be saved, at the entrance of the medical center, she said “Save! Can save!”… Doctor Hu couldn"t help looking skeptically at the baby who was quietly lying in the arms of the young woman.
“Doctor Hu, how is it? How is my old man?” Grandma Liu could hardly breathe from being highly strung.
Doctor Hu organized his words and nodded: "Now, this old man has the confidence that the patient can be saved. This old man will prescribe a few more pills. Go back and saute it for the wounds and come back after half a month.”
“Is this … really fine? Can he really be saved?” After hearing the diagnosis, the family felt like they were dreaming.
"This old man never boasts."
“But with that fatal injury, can we take him back? Otherwise doctor, let my old man stay here and wait until he has been cured before we go?”
“There"s no need to stay in the hospital. The patient is better off going back to recuperate rather than staying in the medical hall. The medical hall is usually not clean.” Standing up, Doctor Hu raised his palm on Liu Yusheng"s head, rubbed, and said meaningfully, "This child is blessed. Her blessing benefits her loved ones.”
The stone in Grandma Liu"s heart finally dropped. She smiled tearfully and took Liu Yushen in her arms, hugging her tightly, "Yes, our Nannan is lucky. With Nannan here, her Grandpa will never be willing to leave us."
Liu Yusheng coiled her tiny arms around Grandma Liu"s neck, and buried her face on the nook of her neck, hiding from the prying eyes behind her.
She knew that there was a risk in doing so, and that she might be exposed accidentally.
But she thought it was worth it. If keeping such treasure was in vain and could not even protect the well-being of her family, what would be the meaning of her rebirth.
Because there was a ginseng tablet in the prescription, the doctor kindly sc.r.a.pped a fraction from the total and only required 20 silvers.
While pulling the silver out, Grandma Liu hesitated in embarra.s.sment and apologized, "Doctor, we only…. We only have 18 silvers in total. Look, can we write a promissory note for the rest? We will definitely pay it back!"
Liu Yusheng knew that this was all the possessions in the family, so she looked at the doctor and nodded solemnly, “Yes, pay back!”
Dr. Hu stared at the baby doll with interest. The little girl has put on a mature expression, so funny, but edgy at the same time, melting the heart.
He waved his big hand, "Okay, 18 silvers if there"s only 18 silvers. This old man will spare you the rest. Looking at your little baby has made this old man happy, just let it be as good as karma."
“Thank you, Doctor!” Grandma Liu laughed and hugged the baby tighter.
