Chapter 20: Still pretty strong
At this moment, the third uncle, who was begged by the middle-aged woman, finally spoke, "Old Dog's mother, I really can't do anything about Old Dog's illness. You'd better hurry up and send him to the hospital for treatment." The third uncle shook his head and sighed.
At this time, some villagers also advised her, "Old dog mother, just listen to your third uncle, he is right, send your old dog to the hospital quickly, it will be too late if you delay."
The old dog mother got up from the ground crying, looked at her son whose condition was getting worse, and asked a few villagers to help her leave.
"I hope this old dog can be rescued. Its mother is so pitiful. She lost her man when the old dog was a few years old. Now she has finally raised her son. If anything happens to the old dog, it will really be the end of its mother's life." Jiang Ersao said with sympathy as she looked at their disappearing backs.
"He has rabies. There is no cure for this disease. He can only wait to die." Li Yiyi said in a low voice.
The two people present heard what she said.
Mrs. Jiang looked at her nervously and asked, "Sister-in-law, is what you said true? Is rabies really that terrible? Is it really impossible to save it?"
"Well, there's no cure," she replied in a muffled voice.
"Jiang Hong's wife, come in for a moment." Uncle San suddenly called out at this time.
Li Yiyi asked Jiang Ersao to help look after the two children. She turned around and followed her third uncle into the village clinic.
After Third Uncle came in, he stood in the lobby of the clinic waiting for her to follow in.
"Jiang Hong's wife, can you tell me about this rabies?"
Li Yiyi nodded, "Of course, in fact, rabies is a virus carried by dogs. It is caused by the contact between teeth and human wounds. There is no cure for this virus. Patients with this virus will be afraid of light, water, and body aches. I just checked Jiang Laogou's symptoms and they are exactly the same as those of rabies."
After hearing this, Third Uncle's old face showed a heavy expression and he stroked his precious white beard, "I never thought there is such a disease in this world. When I heard you mention it to Old Dog Jiang yesterday, I thought you were trying to scare him. It seems that I am old and ignorant."
"By the way, how did you know about this disease?" After sighing, the third uncle asked her curiously.
Of course, she couldn't tell him that this disease was no longer a difficult disease in modern times, and there was a vaccine to prevent it.
"I saw an introduction to this disease in a book, but I forgot which book it was." She answered him with an explanation at random.
Fortunately, this third uncle was not a person who liked to ask questions. After hearing her explanation, he dropped the topic.
Soon he asked about her review progress.
"I'm reviewing pretty well. Jiang Hong found two books on that subject for me and I'm reviewing them now." she replied.
After listening to this, the Third Uncle nodded with satisfaction, "Study hard. As long as you pass the exam this time, you are always welcome to come and work here."
Li Yiyi was delighted with this olive branch. "Thank you, Third Uncle. I will study hard and get this certificate."
The two chatted for a while until a patient came to see the doctor, and then Li Yiyi left the village clinic.
As soon as she came out, Jiang Ersao came over with her two children.
"Third sister-in-law, did Third Uncle give you any trouble?" Jiang Ersao asked with a worried look on her face.
Li Yiyi was startled when she heard her question, and shook her head and replied, "Third Uncle didn't make things difficult for me. He's a very nice guy."
When Mrs. Jiang heard her words, her eyes widened a little, "Is he a good man? When he gets angry, even the village chief has to give way to him. You are the only one in the village who thinks he is a good man."
Li Yiyi smiled and took the two children, "Thank you, second sister-in-law, for helping me look after them."
"Don't be polite, we are all family. By the way, third sister-in-law, you just said that old dog Jiang is incurable and that he has rabies. Is that true?" she asked in a low voice.
The smile on Li Yiyi's face faded by more than half, and she answered seriously, "It's true. Old Jiang was bitten by a dog and contracted a virus carried by the dog. It's called rabies. There is no cure for this disease, and it's a sure death."
Hearing this horrible result, Jiang Ersao felt a chill running from the soles of her feet to her forehead.
"Oh my god, this is the first time I know that a person can die from a dog bite. I'm scared to death. When I get home I must tell my children about this." Mrs. Jiang said with a frightened look on her face.
Sure enough, at noon, Li Yiyi heard from Jiang Ersao that Jiang Laogou died in the hospital shortly after being sent to the hospital.
After lunch, Li Yiyi, who was about to read a book in the room, suddenly saw Jiang Hong walk into the room carrying a large backpack.
"What are you doing?" she asked him subconsciously.
Jiang Hong took out the things in his backpack and answered her, "Didn't you promise me to let me come back to sleep? I brought back some clothes. I'll bring them in."
Li Yiyi looked at his uniform clothes, all of which were issued by the team. He didn't have any casual clothes at all.
You know what, it’s really pleasing to the eye to see men of this era wearing this kind of clothes.
No wonder the original body had resorted to such shameful means to marry the man in front of her.
After putting away his clothes, Jiang Hong looked at the pile of clothes in the corner of the room.
"Don't read in the afternoon. Let's take the two children into the city to pick out some clothes for you and the two children." He said suddenly.
After saying that, he quickened his pace and left the room with his ears red.
Li Yiyi looked at his back as he walked out, her lips curled up, and she found that this man was really good.
Just after three o'clock in the afternoon, Li Yiyi saw a men's parallel-bar bicycle parked in front of her house.
When they set off, the couple each took a bicycle and carried a child on them as they rode towards the city.
As soon as they arrived in the city, they asked a family Jiang Hong knew to take care of their bicycles.
After all, in this day and age, bicycles are valuable items and there is a risk of them being stolen at any time.
After leaving their bicycles in safekeeping, the family of four finally started shopping.
It was the first time for the two children to come to the city, and the two siblings looked at everything with curiosity.
The family of four didn't walk far before they saw the city's department store appear before them.
Jiang Hong, who was looking for this place, walked in with his wife and children without saying a word.
The two adults and two children first went shopping in the clothing store.
As soon as the teller at the counter saw what Jiang Hong was wearing, he came forward to greet him enthusiastically.
"Comrade, what kind of clothes would you like to buy?" the lady at the counter asked with a smile.
