Jiayin dug quickly with her little hands and easily found a white seashell in the sand. It was somewhat transparent and looked like jade.
She happily held the shell up to the sun and showed it off to her brothers, "Look, the seashell I found is the prettiest!"
The cats looked over and were all happy. Before they could say anything, Nannan rushed over.
I don't know how her small body could have such strength. She pushed Jiayin aside and tried to snatch the shell.
Jiayin instinctively gripped the seashell tightly, not wanting it to be taken away.
So, the sharp edge of the seashell sliced open her palm!
Bright red blood dripped onto the fine sand, and the children were stunned.
"Lucky Girl!"
"younger sister!"
Jia'an and Jiaxi went crazy, picked up their little sister and ran into the house!
Cat followed behind, crying so loudly that anyone who didn't know better would think he was injured...
The courtyard instantly descended into chaos!
The old lady turned her head and saw her granddaughter's bloody hand. She was so shocked that she missed a step and almost fell down. Fortunately, Li Zhensheng rushed out and helped his mother.
"Don't worry about me, go see Fu Niu'er!"
Jiayi has already run out to find Doctor Zhang!
Granny He glared fiercely at Nannan. If she weren't a child, she would have kicked her away!
Sister-in-law Li instinctively hugged the little girl to her arms, timidly unsure of what to say...
Li Zhensheng didn't know anything about medicine, but he did know how to stop the bleeding. He tore off a clean cloth and pressed it against his niece's wound.
Jiayin sat in her grandmother's arms, her big eyes filled with tears, and she looked a little dazed!
They say the ten fingers are connected to the heart, but actually the palms are closer to the heart and hurt more!
Her entire hand was numb with pain, and her head was spinning!
Doctor Zhang was carried there by Jiayi, wearing only an undergarment and with his hair loose. If this were a modern TV drama, he could easily play Mei Chaofeng!
Seeing Jiayin's pitiful state and her half-soaked towel, he jumped down and yelled, "How can you take care of a child like this? Fu Niu'er is only a few years old, and she's injured so badly!"
No one in the Li family could utter a word. They were filled with self-reproach and wished they could slap themselves. Granny He had even knelt down at the door.
Doctor Zhang stepped forward and whispered to comfort Jiayin, "Don't be afraid, Fu Niu'er. Let Grandpa take a look. It's just a minor injury. Grandpa will blow on it and it will be fine!"
Jiayin nodded, tears welling up in her eyes.
Everyone felt extremely distressed, but dared not utter a sound, for fear of making the little girl cry and delaying her treatment.
The cloth was quickly opened, and after pressing, the blood flow slowed down significantly. After a simple wipe, a two-inch-long gash was revealed.
The little girl's palm was almost cut with a horizontal line.
The area around the thumb is shallower, but it gets deeper towards the edge of the palm, with the skin and flesh turned up like a baby's mouth.
Everyone gasped in shock!
Doctor Zhang was also furious, "How on earth was it cut? This wound is way too long!!"
The old woman's tears flowed like a spring, soaking her clothes. Before she could wipe them away, she asked, "Dr. Zhang, what should we do? How can we prevent scarring? Will it disrupt my child's future life?"
After thinking for a moment, Dr. Zhang's eyes lit up. He coughed twice and tentatively said, "Well... there is a way. Stitching the wound up will definitely help it heal better and won't delay your future life. Even if it leaves a scar, don't worry, just apply scar removal cream!"
"no!"
Almost the entire Li family shouted it out in unison.
Cat Brother shook his head frantically, "Grandpa Zhang wants to sew my sister up like a little piglet? No way, no way!"
“Yes, Grandpa Zhang can’t sew up my sister!” Jia’an and Jiaxi said in unison.
The two girls reached out to protect their younger sister, afraid that Doctor Zhang would get too close.
The small hut that Dr. Zhang built on the north side of the village was specifically used for conducting experiments.
The villagers wouldn't go there, but these boys were very curious, so they went to explore while Doctor Zhang was in the valley.
As a result, the sight of those little lambs, piglets, and puppies with their legs and bellies sewn up in a mess left a deep impression on them, and they had nightmares for several nights after returning home!
Now that Doctor Zhang has set his sights on their sister, absolutely not!
Jia An and Jia Xi were already looking around, preparing to find a suitable weapon!
Doctor Zhang gritted his teeth in anger, his expression a mixture of rage and guilt. "I didn't cut Fu Niu'er's hand, why are you all in such a hurry? I just want to sew it up for her!"
"That won't do either!" The boys glared at them menacingly, ready to fight to the death if they even touched their sister.
The old lady was at a loss; sewing it up was definitely not going to work!
But if we don't sew it up, are we just going to leave it like this?
Li Zhensheng gritted his teeth and asked, "Uncle Zhang, if Fu Niu'er's wound is stitched up, how can we guarantee that she won't feel pain? After it's stitched up, will she be as flexible as before? Will it leave a scar?"
“I understand that you are eager to use the experimental results on Fu Niu’er, and you would not sincerely harm Fu Niu’er, but Fu Niu’er is the life of our whole family!”
“Our family has never mistreated you. My mother and siblings cook all your meals every day, and your clothes and shoes are all sewn by us. Please tell the truth out of consideration for our relationship!”
Hearing this, Doctor Zhang felt a little embarrassed. After thinking for a moment, he replied, "Fu Niu'er's wound is quite large, but fortunately she is rather plump, so it's all skin and flesh that's injured, not bones or tendons. If it's not stitched up, but just treated with medicine and bandaged, it will heal completely in about half a month. However, the scar left behind will be rather ugly and difficult to remove."
"But after so much research, I can confirm that sutures made by sutures made by calculus can indeed make wounds heal faster and leave smaller scars. It's just that... I haven't figured out how to use painkillers very well yet, so it hurts a bit when I'm stitching."
The old lady and Li Zhensheng exchanged a glance, both looking somewhat embarrassed.
For a young girl, the smaller the scar, the better.
But Jiayin was too young; her skin was stitched up like cloth, how could she endure the pain?
Jiayin, on the other hand, has gotten used to the pain and her brain is functioning normally again.
It's already very dangerous here since there's no tetanus shot available.
If the wound is left exposed for a long time without being stitched up, it will definitely become more serious.
Even if it hurts, you have to endure it, because your life is more important.
So she said, "I believe in Grandpa Zhang. Grandpa Zhang, please sew my flesh back up so it will heal quickly!"
"Oh, good, good!" Doctor Zhang jumped for joy, his eyebrows soaring. "Our lucky girl is the best! Grandpa Zhang will definitely stitch you up properly, and make sure there's not a single scar left!"
After saying that, he shouted loudly to Jiayi, "Don't just stand there like an idiot, quickly get me some water, and some strong liquor! And where's my medicine box? Give it all to me!"
He was afraid the Li family would change their minds, so he quickly washed his hands, then cleaned Fu Niu'er's wound and rubbed the area around the wound with strong liquor.
After inserting several gold needles and sealing a few acupoints, they finally used an extremely fine embroidery needle and catgut thread to begin suturing.
Grandma Li and Li Zhensheng wanted to stop them, but they didn't dare to. Their hearts were being torn in two.
