Chapter 84 Dr. Jiang went out for lunch together

Jiang Feiyan quickly changed her clothes and left the space.

As soon as I opened the gate, there was the auntie who lived in the thatched hut not far away.

The other person, soaking wet and looking disheveled, cried out:

“My thatched hut was blown down by the strong wind, and my husband was pinned down by the main beam of the hut and couldn’t move.”

"I really can't lift that log by myself, young comrade, please help me!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feiyan quickly nodded and said, "Okay! Let's go quickly!"

This is an extremely urgent matter; we definitely need to go and help.

Braving the raging wind and rain, the two ran all the way to the thatched hut.

The thatched hut had been ravaged by wind and rain, and was in complete disarray.

"Right here!" Huang Yuan led Jiang Feiyan quickly to the corner.

There lay a pale-faced, unconscious middle-aged man.

His legs were pinned down by a long, thick log, and there were scattered haystacks all around him.

"Come on, let's do it together!" Jiang Feiyan and the other woman each grabbed one side and used all their strength to move the log.

Although Jiang Feiyan is quite strong, this piece of wood is solid and requires some strength.

The two helped the people up, and Jiang Feiyan led them to her room.

Upon arrival, Jiang Feiyan quickly took out a few clothes from the wardrobe for the aunt to change into, then had her wipe her husband's body before carrying him to the bed.

While her aunt was busy, Jiang Feiyan went to cook another pot of ginger soup.

It's already mid-October, and the weather is quite cool.

They'd all been caught in the rain late at night, so they definitely needed some ginger soup to warm themselves up and avoid getting sick.

After drinking the ginger soup, Huang Yuan looked at her unconscious husband and was very anxious. She immediately said that she was going out to find a barefoot doctor.

Jiang Feiyan stopped her immediately.

It was raining heavily outside, and the roads were muddy and difficult to walk on.

The barefoot doctor lived in the next village, and it would take him an hour to get there and back.

Moreover, barefoot doctors usually only treat minor illnesses, so a leg fracture caused by being hit by a piece of wood might be beyond their ability to treat.

It would be better to wait until the rain stops a bit, then go directly to Uncle Niu and ask him to get an oxcart to take the person to the town clinic.

Hearing this, Huang Yuan had no choice but to give up.

She thanked him again, looking exhausted, "Thank you, Jiang Zhiqing."

The two had already learned each other's names during their previous conversations.

"It's alright, you've already thanked me many times." Jiang Feiyan looked at her and said, "You don't look too well. Why don't you lie down in bed for a while? I'll call you when the rain stops."

Huang Yuan shook her head: "No need, I'll just sit by the bed and watch over Lao Gu."

She was so worried about her husband's condition that she couldn't sleep.

Fortunately, the rain outside didn't last long; it stopped after 20 minutes.

Jiang Feiyan hurriedly went out and went to Uncle Niu's house.

Fortunately, Jiang Feiyan had visited the town several times before and had a good relationship with Uncle Niu. She even treated him to a meal last time.

Otherwise, they definitely wouldn't be happy to bother them in the middle of the night.

The group hurriedly took the person to the town clinic, where Jiang Xun happened to be on duty that night.

Seeing Jiang Feiyan kindly bring someone over for treatment once again, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

This girl is really strange.

She's kind-hearted, but sometimes she can be incredibly fierce.

She has both a compassionate heart and ruthless methods; her temperament is truly multifaceted.

......

Fortunately, he received timely treatment. Although Gu Hong's legs were fractured, they were not too serious and he was able to recover after a period of rest.

When he woke up, his wife, Huang Yuan, was dozing off against the headboard.

Gu Hong's eyes welled up with tears, and his voice was hoarse as he said, "Xiao Yuan..."

Upon hearing her husband's voice, Huang Yuan immediately sat up straight.

With a face full of excitement, she grasped her husband's hand and said, "Old Gu, you're finally awake! You almost scared me to death, waaaaah..."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

This was the first time Huang Yuan, who came from a respectable family, had lost her composure in front of her husband.

I've never been this heartbroken, not even when my family suffered a disaster before.

Seeing his wife shed tears, Gu Hong felt terrible too, and his voice choked with emotion as he said:

"Okay, stop crying, I'm perfectly fine..."

"Don't even think about leaving me...don't even think about it..." Huang Yuan looked at him with tears streaming down her face, only these few words coming out of her mouth.

"How could I bear to leave you..." Gu Hong wiped away her tears with his hand, and said with a wry smile, "Xiao Yuan, don't think like that. I'm going to live to be a hundred years old."

"Then I'll live to be 99," Huang Yuan said, unable to suppress a laugh.

They're both so old, how could they be discussing such childish questions?

Seeing that his wife had calmed down a bit, Gu Hong breathed a sigh of relief: "Where's that young comrade?"

While he was unconscious last night, he was actually somewhat aware of things; he knew that the girl had saved him.

"She went to the cafeteria to help buy breakfast." Speaking of Jiang Feiyan, Huang Yuan's eyes warmed, and she said softly:

"I really owe her a lot this time. If it weren't for her, I don't know what I would have done."

"She saved my life," Gu Hong sighed. "If it were a few years ago, we might have been able to repay her, but now..."

"Yes, that's what I think too." Huang Yuan frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then said:

"How about this, I can embroider and sew clothes. If she wants to make clothes in the future, she can bring the fabric and I will make them for her for free."

"When you get home from work on weekdays, go and chop some extra firewood and put it outside her yard. That'll be helping you out."

Gu Hong nodded: "Alright, that's the only way."

When Jiang Feiyan returned from the cafeteria, Huang Yuan told her about it.

Jiang Feiyan agreed after hearing this.

She knew that the couple wanted to repay a debt of gratitude.

They had no other means but to repay her in whatever way they could.

She certainly wouldn't refuse such a sincere gesture.

......

After breakfast, Jiang Feiyan went back to the village again.

The thatched hut where the couple lived had collapsed beyond recognition and was completely uninhabitable.

Determined to help someone to the end, she decided to talk to the village chief about what happened last night and ask him to help them find a new house.

After hearing Jiang Feiyan's purpose for coming, the village chief learned that this incident had actually happened the night before.

Although the couple had fallen on hard times and ended up in their village, it would be difficult to explain to their superiors if something happened to them.

There happened to be a dilapidated house at the foot of the mountain, but the roof was broken and leaked.

The village chief immediately decided to send two villagers to help repair the roof so that the couple could move in later.

Jiang Feiyan knew about that dilapidated house; although it was a mud house, it was much sturdier than a thatched hut.

Jiang Feiyan thought to herself, "It's so good to have a kind and capable village chief."

When she returned to the town clinic and told the couple the good news, they thanked her profusely once again.

It just so happened to be lunchtime, and Jiang Feiyan was planning to grab something quick at the hospital cafeteria.

As soon as they reached a corner, they saw Jiang Xun and a young girl not far away.

The girl looked at him with a blush on her face and stammered:

"Dr. Jiang... my uncle must have told you, right? We're going to his house for lunch today..."
