Coming out of the Chief of Staff's office, Ming Leyao took a deep breath, turned back to look at Fu Wencheng who was looking at her lovingly, and sighed, "It's really not easy to be a celebrity."
"Wife, you have finally started your battle to become famous. Are you very happy?"
"What's there to be happy about? This is all within my expectations. There's no surprise. Let's go home. I'm hungry."
"Okay, let's go home."
Fu Wencheng had a half-day holiday. After lunch, he accompanied his wife to sleep until the afternoon. He stayed at home to cook, and Ming Leyao went to Qiao Xiaoran's house to help make pastries that were to be delivered tomorrow.
The next day, Ming Leyao accompanied Qiao Xiaoran to deliver the goods. She would be going out in a few days and was planning to buy some things to bring to her second uncle. They happened to be going to the supply and marketing cooperative together, so they went there together.
After delivering the goods, Qiao Xiaoran was going to her relatives' home in the county town. Ming Leyao did not go with her. She just planned to buy things and go home. The weather was too hot, and even the braised pork in the state-owned restaurant did not arouse her interest.
She was walking back in a hurry, and when she was about to leave the county town, a ragged little boy ran over. Because he didn't look at the road, he bumped into her and then fell to the ground in a gorgeous manner.
Ming Leyao "......."
The first thought was to touch porcelain...
But as a doctor, I still had to go forward to confirm the child's problem.
Fortunately, there weren't many people here at noon, otherwise there would have been a crowd of people gathering to watch the fun.
After taking the little boy's pulse, Ming Leyao found that he had indeed fainted due to malnutrition and mild heatstroke. She squatted there feeling a little worried.
What should she do? She didn't know whose child this was, and she couldn't take the child away easily. What if the parents got worried and couldn't find the child?
But it seems unrealistic to ask her to squat here and wait for the child to wake up. Who knows when the child will wake up? ?
Just as she was struggling, the thin boy lying on the hot ground slowly opened his eyes. When he saw Ming Leyao, there was vigilance in his eyes.
Ming Leyao raised her eyebrows.
"I said you hit me and then passed out. Aren't you going to say anything?"
The little boy was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that he had indeed bumped into someone before he fainted, and a blush appeared on his sallow face.
"Yes...I'm sorry, big sister...my brother is sick at home...I'm in a hurry...I'm in a hurry to buy medicine."
"You have a bit of heat stroke, do you want to rest before you look for it?"
"No, my brother is very ill. I'm afraid he can't wait. I'm leaving first."
The little boy bit his lip, got up, ran forward two steps, and fell to the ground again because he was exhausted.
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she was so stubborn that she refused to let them fall.
Ming Leyao sighed.
Forget it, who made me encounter it?
Just do one good deed that day.
"Come on, take me to see your brother. I'm a doctor."
"Ah? Doctor?"
"Yes, look, this is my medical license."
Ming Leyao took out a small notebook with a cross on the cover from her bag and handed it to the little boy.
The little boy couldn't read, but he recognized the hospital logo. He immediately wanted to stand up, but because he felt dizzy, he staggered and fell again.
"Come on, I'll help you."
Ming Leyao put the notebook back into the bag, supported the little boy, and followed the road he pointed to the outskirts of the county town. They stopped in front of a dilapidated and abandoned courtyard. Looking at the ruins, Ming Leyao doubted whether people could really live here? ?
"Here?"
"Yes, it's here, sister, let's go in quickly."
After pushing open the wooden board that was no longer a door, I saw a dozen children huddled in a corner of the side house. Because Ming Leyao was taller than the little boy and because of the angle, the dozen children only saw Ming Leyao and did not see the little boy.
Suddenly, a tall and thin boy who was a little older than the dozen kids asked cautiously, "Who are you?"
"Big brother, it's me. This sister is the doctor I invited back for my second brother."
"Doctor? Xiaoyi, are you sure you haven't been cheated?"
"No, not really. I've seen my sister's certificate. She is indeed a doctor."
"Really? Show it to me?"
Seeing the children being so wary of her, Ming Leyao did not feel angry, but rather a little distressed. Seeing these children in tattered clothes, skinny bodies, dull eyes, and no adults around them, living in such a shabby yard where no one seemed to want them, one could tell that their situation seemed a little bad.
Ming Leyao took out his medical license and handed it over.
The tall and thin boy took it, took a closer look, and found that the word "Doctor" was indeed written on it, and there was a red stamp underneath, so it should not be fake.
"I'm sorry, sister, could you please help me check on my fifth brother?"
“Who is the patient?”
Several children quickly made way, revealing a boy lying behind them with a red face.
Ming Leyao went forward to take the child's pulse without saying a word. When she felt the warmth on the child's wrist, her brows furrowed.
So hot..
I'm afraid it's about 40°.
"How long has it been burning?"
"Since last night..."
"Have you eaten yet?"
"No..."
Not only did the sick Old Five not eat, but all of them hadn't eaten for a long time.
Ming Leyao pursed her lips and took out a box of medicine from her bag, as well as a green water bottle.
"Help him up."
"Oh, okay..."
The tall and thin boy quickly helped the fifth brother up. Ming Leyao quickly broke the pills and fed them into the boy's mouth. Then he opened the kettle and tried to put the pills in with water.
I don’t know if the boy hadn’t drunk water for a long time, or if he had a fever for too long and felt the coolness of the water, so he subconsciously wanted to drink it. It was the water that successfully sent the pill into his body.
"How long has it been since you last had a meal?"
Looking at everyone looking at the kettle with eager eyes, Ming Leyao felt that this issue was quite important.
"It's been...several days. I can't remember the details."
“.......”
I can't even remember this, it seems I haven't eaten for a long time.
Ming Leyao pondered for a moment and decided to help.
"Wait here for a moment, I'll be back soon."
After asking the children to take good care of Xiaowu, Ming Leyao went straight to the state-owned restaurant.
It wasn't meal time at this time, and it was summer, so not much food was cooked, and there was almost nothing left when she went there.
In the end, there was no choice but to pack all the rice and ask the chef to make egg fried rice, and stir-fry all the vegetables and meat that could be put in it. I also ordered five servings of noodles. In short, I put whatever I could in it and bought all the remaining dishes from the state-owned enterprise.
I spent five yuan and two kilograms of food coupons...
