Chapter 2 Picking Up a Second Brother



But how do you get a person with a broken leg to a clinic?

Jiang Sheng and Zheng Ruqian discussed it for a long time and finally decided to steal Uncle Zhao's flatbed cart for use.

Uncle Zhao has a bit of a fierce temper, but his family has a flatbed cart, which is tied to a wooden stake at the entrance of the village.

Zheng Ruqian kept watch, while Jiang Sheng went to pull the flatbed cart.

The seven-year-old girl had never had a proper meal, and her shoulders were barely taller than a flatbed cart, yet she carried the rope on her back and struggled to pull herself forward, and she actually looked quite formidable.

With the combined efforts of the two people, the boy was lifted onto the flatbed cart.

Two little children, about seven or eight years old, one pulling from the front and the other pushing from the side, used all their strength to stop the flatbed cart in front of the only clinic in town.

"Is the leg broken?" The middle-aged doctor glanced at the flatbed cart and immediately frowned. "Don't move it, let me do it."

He first carried the boy to the bed, then carefully examined the wound, and finally retrieved medicine and tree branches.

"Your leg is broken, and it's quite serious," the doctor sighed. "You'll need to rest for at least three months, and come back every two weeks to change the dressing. Try not to move it as much as possible, but also be careful to prevent bedsores."

He carried the boy back onto the flatbed cart and placed half a month's worth of herbal medicine at the back of the cart.

"A traditional Chinese medicine doctor," Jiang Sheng said, biting her lip. "We really don't have any money."
