Chapter 258: Rescue the Child (1)
"Woo woo...Hu Zi, my Hu Zi..."
“Wow wow wow!”
A large crowd gathered near the drying yard in the village. The heartbreaking cries of women and the sobbing of children continued to be heard from inside. Seeing the situation here, Shen Xiangwan's heart tightened. Together with Aunt Wang, Yuan Yue and others, they forcibly pushed aside the people blocking the way and squeezed into the crowd. At first, some people were impatient, but they immediately made way when they saw them.
The glaring bright red soon caught the eye, accompanied by a strong smell of blood. Under a thick crooked tree, a small body was lying twitching on the ground, and the ground beneath it was already stained red with blood. Zhao Dashan and others all stood by with pale faces. There was also a woman lying on the ground crying in pain. The eyes of several women who were comforting her also turned red, and from time to time they would turn their heads and quietly wipe away their tears.
"Hu Zi... hurry up, Wan Wan, go check on Hu Zi, please..."
Seeing the miserable state of her eldest grandson again, Aunt Wang screamed hoarsely and grabbed Shen Xiangwan excitedly.
"Wanwan."
Seeing this, Zhao Dashan hurried over: "Wanwan, Huzi... please help uncle take a look, uncle... I..."
Before he could finish his words, the eight-foot-tall man burst into tears on the spot. He knew that Hu Zi was probably beyond saving, but he was his eldest grandson. No matter what, he was unwilling to give up hope.
"Mrs. Wei, Mrs. Wei..."
The woman who was lying on the ground crying stumbled over and knelt in front of her, hugging her legs and crying, "Mrs. Wei, please save Huzi. I only have this one son. If he dies, I don't want to live anymore, wuwu..."
She was none other than Hu Zi's mother, Zhao Dashan's eldest daughter-in-law. It is said that a son's body is hurt, but his mother feels the pain in her heart. Seeing her son lying there dying, she felt as if someone was cutting her heart with a blunt knife, and the pain almost suffocated her.
"Sister-in-law, please get up first. I'll take a look first."
Bending down to help her up, Shen Xiangwan looked past her at the child lying not far away. There was a bloody gash across his stomach, his intestines had fallen out, and there was a pool of blood on the ground. If he was not rescued, he would probably be dead.
"What are you doing? Let Wanwan go."
Seeing that her daughter-in-law was still pulling Shen Xiangwan, Aunt Wang endured the pain and pulled her away.
Saving lives was the most important thing. Shen Xiangwan ignored them and strode towards the child with the medicine box. Now she had to make sure whether the child could be saved. When she cured Zhou Changqing, the villagers knew that her medical skills were very good. When they saw her approaching the child, the villagers all whispered about it. Most of them hoped that she could save the child, and only a very few were singing her praises!
Shen Xiangwan squatted down, grabbed the child's hand, and measured his pulse and heartbeat. After checking other conditions such as whether the bones were broken, she leaned over and whispered softly in his ear: "Huzi, don't be afraid. I am the second aunt of the Wei family, An Ge'er's aunt. Don't worry, the second aunt is a good doctor and will definitely save you. Now you can tell me, can you hear me?"
The child had lost too much blood and was numb from the pain, but he seemed to have heard what she said. He opened his mouth and tried to make a sound, but the surroundings were too noisy and Shen Xiangwan could not make out what he said at all.
"Be quiet!"
"drink···"
Suddenly turning towards the crowd, Shen Xiangwan shouted sharply, the sound mixed with internal energy powerfully hitting the eardrums of everyone present. Almost immediately, not only the chattering adults, but even the crying children stopped, lest they affect the treatment later. Shen Xiangwan said coldly: "If anyone makes any more noise, I will pull out his tongue."
After she finished speaking, without caring whether they would listen or not, Shen Xiangwan took out a silver needle from the medicine box, tore open the child's clothes and gave him a few injections to temporarily stop the bleeding and relieve the pain. The onlookers dared not make any more sounds, and all stared at her without blinking. In their perception, her efforts were in vain. His intestines had fallen out, so how could he be saved?
However, despite their perception, most people still sincerely hope that she can really save the child's life!
After completing the simple treatment, Shen Xiangwan did not move him rashly. She leaned over again to stroke his head and said softly, "Good boy, Second Aunt has helped you stop the bleeding and pain. Is it much better?"
"Um···"
This time, although it was as faint as a mosquito's buzz, at least they could hear the sound he made. Zhao Dashan and others nearby almost burst into tears again. Aunt Wang quickly lay on the ground and choked with sobs, saying, "My Huzi, is it in pain? I hope you won't be in any trouble..."
"grandmother···"
As if he heard her crying, the little tiger opened his mouth with difficulty and could only make a few weak sounds.
"Hu Zi, my Hu Zi..."
"Tiger..."
Aunt Wang broke down and burst into tears on the spot. Hu Zi's mother also broke free from the man's hand and knelt in front of him.
"Aunt Wang, sister-in-law, I know you are sad, but I have to save the child first. Please stay calm and listen to me."
If possible, Shen Xiangwan didn't want to disturb them, but the silver needles had a limited time to stop bleeding. They didn't have much time to waste and had to proceed to the next rescue as soon as possible.
"I···"
"Big brother, why don't you hold them back?"
Aunt Wang and her daughter-in-law opened their mouths at the same time, but before they could say anything, tears began to fall. Zhao Dashan quickly asked his two sons to separate them, squatted down and asked, "Wanwan, are you saying that Huzi can still be saved?"
To be honest, he had no idea what was going on. After all, in their minds, a ruptured stomach meant death. Now that the child's intestines had fallen out, was there still hope for survival? The reason he asked the old woman to call Shen Xiangwan was just because of that little bit of luck in his heart.
"uncertain···"
"That···"
"Uncle Zhao, calm down and listen to me."
Shen Xiangwan was interrupted anxiously by Zhao Dashan before she could say a few words, but she could understand his feelings. If it was a little cub lying here, she couldn't guarantee that she could be calmer than them.
"Okay, go ahead, go ahead."
Zhao Dashan also realized that he was too impulsive and quickly waved his hand to make amends.
"I've examined the child. Apart from the wound on his stomach and the obvious fracture on his left leg, he's otherwise fine. There's no brain damage, which is good news. Next, I'll clean his internal organs and check for damage, then suture his wounds. In principle, these things aren't dangerous. However, any surgery carries certain risks, and I can't guarantee a 100% chance of saving him. I hope you're mentally prepared. It's up to you whether you want to have the surgery or not."
In fact, the child's condition was far more serious than she said. The excessive blood loss alone was tricky enough, but they didn't have much time to waste. Shen Xiangwan didn't say too much, but just emphasized the dangers of the operation to him, so as to avoid any accidents and being blamed as the murderer of the child.
