Chapter 76 Visitors
Su Tong looked up at Wang Guilan and Li Cuixiang who were still eyeing him eagerly, and gave up the idea of carrying the person in nearby.
She turned back to Liu Shiwen and said:
"Comrade Liu, the roads in the village are not easy to travel, and it takes half an hour to drive to the nearest town hospital. Comrade Peng can't afford to delay. If you believe me, send Comrade Peng to my house first and save him first."
Liu Shiwen also knew that Peng Hui could not afford to delay. If she were in the provincial capital, she would have been sent directly to the emergency room by now.
But now in the remote Yunshan Village, it is difficult to find a local Chinese medicine doctor, otherwise why would he be so anxious that his eyes turned red...
He saw that Su Tong was very skilled in taking pulses and was obviously a medical practitioner. She was also Dongdong's savior, so he already had some trust in her. He nodded immediately and carried Peng Hui into the jeep.
There was a driver sitting in the front seat of the jeep, and Su Tong also got on the passenger seat to give directions to the driver.
At this moment, Wang Guilan and Li Cuixiang did not try to stop them. They were not stupid. The woman who was hit had not woken up yet!
It would be best if she was taken away by this unfortunate girl. Once she leaves, it will be none of their business.
The jeep had not driven far when the two women at the back started fighting over the net bags that the couple had just thrown on the ground.
Su Tong glanced at it from a distance in the rearview mirror and calmly looked away.
It didn't take a few minutes to drive to the small yard next to the cowshed.
The kang in the new house was heated very hot. After placing Peng Hui on the kang, Su Tong gave her an acupuncture right away.
Liu Shiwen was watching closely beside him, and only when he saw that Su Tong was methodical and his technique was skillful and precise did he relax a little.
During the break, Su Tong said, "Comrade Peng's health is really not suitable for going out."
Liu Shiwen frowned and said, "I've been on IV drip, I came here after the needle was removed."
"During the time when Dongdong was lost, she never closed her eyes. She was worried day and night. She said that every time she closed her eyes, she would hear Dongdong crying and calling for his mother. She fainted several times. By the time Dongdong was found, she was no longer able to endure..."
Liu Shiwen spoke in a low voice, looking haggard and tormented.
"As soon as Dongdong was found, he was taken to the emergency room. It took several days of rescue before he recovered. Later, he was transferred to the hospital in the provincial capital. Dongdong's condition... has not been very good. She continued to accompany Dongdong and cried every day. In the past month, the mother and son took turns to go to the emergency room... The child's grandmother couldn't bear the blow and fell ill..."
At this point, Liu Shiwen looked up at Su Tong and said, "Dongdong's condition has improved in the past few days, so I thought I must come to Yunshan Village first. You saved Dongdong's life, which is equivalent to saving our whole family. If Dongdong had any accident, we don't know what would happen to our family..."
"I said I would come today, and Xiaohui insisted on coming along. She said she wanted to thank you in person. I didn't expect...her body couldn't stand the slightest bit of hardship."
Su Tong didn't think too much when she rescued Dongdong. Now seeing the couple running all the way to Yunshan Village to thank her in this situation, she didn't know what to say for a moment.
At this time, Peng Hui, who was lying on the kang, coughed.
Liu Shiwen quickly leaned over and saw Peng Hui slowly waking up and opening her eyes.
Su Tong looked at the time and said, "Wait a moment!"
After saying that, he quickly took out the silver needle from Peng Hui's body, then moved away to let her talk to Liu Shiwen.
Peng Hui grabbed Su Tong's sleeve, her tone was still a little weak, but tears flashed in her eyes...
"Comrade Xiao Wu, thank you! Thank you so much! Thank you for saving Dongdong! Otherwise, I might not have survived..."
Su Tong held Peng Hui's hand, stuffed it into the quilt, and said, "Comrade Peng, I'm glad Dongdong is okay! You shouldn't be too emotional right now, you should take a rest first."
After saying that, he turned around and looked at Liu Shiwen, and said, "Comrade Liu, Comrade Peng needs to rest now. Why don't you have a simple meal at my house and see what happens in the afternoon?"
Liu Shiwen had no better plans at the moment, so he nodded and thanked repeatedly.
Then he remembered something and went out with the jeep driver to move several large sacks from the trunk.
Before they came, they also learned about "Wu Tong's" situation, her family's attitude and the reason why she hit the pillar.
But I also heard that this girl respected Old Lady Wu very much, so she thanked "Wu Tong" and visited the old lady. I didn't expect to see this girl's excellent family before I even entered the door, and they also gave her the things they wanted to give her...
Fortunately, there were still quite a few in the trunk, so I was able to deliver them to her.
Su Tong took a look and found that in addition to the special rice and flour, these sacks actually contained a lot of medicinal supplements. He didn't say much, just thanked and accepted the bags.
Liu Shiwen was afraid of causing trouble for Su Tong, so he specifically asked him to just make something casual for lunch.
Peng Hui had a weak spleen and stomach and had been unable to eat anything. She had to spend most of her time in the hospital, relying entirely on intravenous nutrient solution to survive.
He and his driver Xiao Zhou don't need to be picky about anything. Just simple food and drink to fill their stomachs is enough.
Su Tong nodded in agreement, took a casserole, washed the millet, added medicinal materials, and cooked the medicinal porridge for Peng Hui.
They also stir-fried semi-dried pheasant with ginger, chili pepper and shredded bamboo shoots, made a stew with pork ribs and radish, fried eggs with wild leeks, lean meat balls in soda, stir-fried cabbage, and a dish of kimchi.
The radish and cabbage were forced upon her by Aunt Cuifen, and the kimchi was given to her by Li Cuixiang after she brought the meat over last time.
When Su Tong put all the dishes on the table, Liu Shiwen and Xiao Zhou were quite surprised. It was difficult to have such a table even for Chinese New Year in the countryside nowadays, let alone "Wu Tong", an orphan who was kicked out of her home.
Su Tong originally wanted to give Peng Hui some food to eat on the kang, but Peng Hui was embarrassed to trouble her so much and insisted on getting up.
Su Tong helped her to the main room. When Peng Hui saw the food on the table, she was also surprised. She held Su Tong's hand and said:
"Your gift is too generous. We originally wanted to thank you, but ended up burdening you instead! We are so sorry!"
Su Tong said: "It's okay, I usually eat these, I just fried two more dishes today."
What Su Tong said was true, but these people didn't quite believe it. They thought that the girl might have taken out all the New Year's goods prepared for them to treat them.
In order not to disappoint Su Tong's kindness, several people picked up their bowls, including Peng Hui, who had not sat at the table for a long time, and also picked up the chopsticks.
In the home of your benefactor, even if you can't eat, you have to pretend to eat, otherwise people might be suspicious.
The group had not originally had high expectations for this simple country meal, but after taking a bite of the food they found it to be surprisingly delicious.
Not to mention the two men who couldn't stop eating, even Peng Hui, who was just trying to show off, drank a bowl of medicinal porridge and ate two soda meatballs.
This surprised Liu Shiwen greatly. Peng Hui had not eaten meat for more than a month and would vomit if she ate anything. The doctor said that if she could eat more, her body would not recover so slowly.
Peng Hui was also surprised and said, "The meatballs made by Comrade Xiao Wu are not greasy and taste fresh and fragrant. I just wanted to try them, but I ended up eating two. I wonder if Comrade Xiao Wu's method is different from others?"
