Chapter 33: Saving the Old Leader
This hat, in this day and age, is enough to crush anyone!
Chen Manli was stunned by the sudden and harsh questioning and the slap on her head. Her face turned pale and she subconsciously took a half step back.
Shen Lingning didn't give the other party time to react. He spoke very quickly and clearly:
He turned to Xiao Zhang and said in a firm tone: "Comrade guard, give the leader medicine immediately! Warm water!"
He then said to the frightened attendant at the door: "Comrade attendant! Please broadcast immediately to find a doctor on the train! At the same time, prepare clean towels and warm water! Hurry!"
After saying this, he turned around and shot a sharp look at Chen Manli and the waiter who was peeking in: "Unrelated personnel, please leave immediately! Keep the air circulating!"
Chen Manli subconsciously retorted: "Why do you..."
However, Shen Lingning's voice had a strange power to stabilize people's hearts. Xiao Zhang woke up as if from a dream. He immediately stuffed the medicine under Zhao Lao's tongue and carefully fed him water.
The flight attendant also reacted and hurried to make the announcement.
Chen Manli's face burned at Shen Lingning's cold eyes and the words "unrelated personnel".
Under the pushing of the flight attendant and Xiao Zhang's vigilant gaze, he had to be "asked" to leave the compartment in disgrace.
The medicine was given, but Mr. Zhao's condition did not improve immediately. His face was still cyanotic and his breathing was rapid.
Shen Lingning knew that nitroglycerin had a time-limit and was limited in effectiveness in certain serious conditions.
She can't wait!
She thought about it and quickly took out the blue cloth bag she was carrying, which was actually in the space.
I found an inconspicuous small cloth bag, which contained a few dried mint leaves with a fresh smell and a small bag of dried hawthorn, with some tea leaves in between.
This was something she had asked Aunt Wang to prepare when she was in Majiaji, under the pretext of preparing some snacks to stimulate the appetite and help digestion for the children. It was very much in line with the "home remedies brought from the countryside."
"Comrade Xiao Zhang, the commander needs to calm down and relieve his symptoms."
Shen Lingning said in a calm tone, with some confidence: "This is a folk remedy taught by an old Chinese medicine doctor in my hometown. Mint clears the heart and hawthorn clears the meridians. Soak it in warm water and let the leader drink a few sips slowly. It can relieve the pain."
She put mint leaves and a few pieces of dried hawthorn into a clean enamel jar and poured in warm water.
His movements were quick and his expression was calm, as if this was the most normal response.
Xiao Zhang was at a loss at the moment, and he had witnessed Shen Lingning's decisiveness just now.
In addition, this "folk remedy" sounded reasonable, mint and hawthorn did have a soothing effect, and it was common, so it was not stopped.
The moment Shen Lingning handed over the enamel jar, a few drops of spiritual spring water from his fingertips had quietly mixed into the water.
At the same time, she seemed to unintentionally block Xiao Zhang's sight with her body, and gently placed a clean towel soaked in a small amount of spiritual spring water on Mr. Zhao's forehead.
The cool scent of mint and the powerful nourishing effect of the spiritual spring water worked together, and Mr. Zhao's frown actually relaxed a little at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Although the cyanosis hadn't completely subsided, his rapid breathing had clearly calmed down! Xiao Zhang exclaimed in surprise, "Captain? Are you feeling better?"
Shen Lingning calmed down slightly, but his face remained solemn: “It’s only a temporary relief, we must wait for the doctor to come!”
She also couldn't wake people up immediately, and she would never leave any evidence of her "magic medicine".
This is her and Fubao’s greatest reliance.
——
Chen Manli was kicked out of the box, and returned to the dining car to complain to Chen Guodong in anger and fear.
When Chen Guodong heard that Shen Lingning not only did not panic, but scolded his daughter in public and seemed to have "stabilized" the situation of the leader, his face was so gloomy that water could drip out of it.
He whispered to his daughter, calling her a "fool" and "more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything."
But he was also shocked by Chen Lingning's calmness in the face of danger and his sharp words.
Chen Manli was so overwhelmed by her father's scolding that she had no choice but to admit her mistake: "I acted on my own this time. From now on, I will listen to Dad's arrangements."
Just then, the dining car waiter passed by Chen Manli with a pot of freshly brewed hot tea.
Somehow, the waiter suddenly stumbled and the kettle of boiling hot tea slipped out of his hands. Most of the hot water splashed right onto Chen Manli's calves and feet, who were wearing her brand new Lenin suit!
"ah--!!!"
The screams of a pig being slaughtered echoed throughout the dining car!
Chen Manli was so upset by the perm that her carefully styled curly hair was scattered, and she looked very miserable.
The burning pain made her forget to complain in an instant, and all she could do was howl like a ghost.
The waiter was so scared that he apologized repeatedly. Chen Guodong was furious, but he could only suppress his anger and deal with his daughter's burns. He was very suspicious about the matter.
——He always felt that this was too “coincidental”!
He strongly suspected that someone was deliberately targeting them.
But I can't find any evidence!
Shen Lingning: I'm a man of few achievements. I just reminded the flight attendants, while "instructing" them, that the floor was a bit slippery after being mopped, and that they should be extra careful when serving hot tea...
It just so happened that the flight attendant was the one who accidentally took Chen Manli to find Mr. Zhao just now. After Chen Manli said a few words, she pretended to be Mr. Zhao’s relative...
The doctor rushed over and confirmed after examination that it was a severe angina attack.
People praised Shen Lingning's series of emergency treatments, including feeding nitroglycerin, physical cooling, and calming emotions.
The supporting effects of mint and hawthorn were particularly mentioned, and they were considered very timely: "If it weren't for Comrade Xiao Shen who seized the most critical three or four minutes, even gods would have been unable to save him. The old leader was in great danger this time."
Xiao Zhang asked, "Is the old leader healthy enough to continue riding in a car, or does he need to be hospitalized to rest?"
After another careful examination, the doctor put down his stethoscope and said, "You're fine now. You can rest after you arrive at your destination."
He looked at Shen Lingning hesitantly, "I feel that Comrade Shen's folk prescription is very helpful. Could you please copy a copy of it for our clinical research?"
Zhao Lao frowned and wanted to refuse on behalf of Shen Lingning, and was about to speak...
The doctor was also a straightforward person. He suddenly realized that something was wrong and quickly waved his hands.
Somewhat incoherent: "No, no, no, Comrade Xiao Shen, I am being presumptuous. I don't mean to ask you for nothing..."
Fubao waved his little fists and said, "Ah, ah, ah, ah!" His inner voice reached Shen Lingning's heart: "If you know it's presumptuous, don't say it!"
Shen Lingning suppressed his laughter in his heart, patted Fubao's butt to comfort him, and said, "Okay, it's just a small country recipe. In the hands of doctors, it can save more people. I am willing to contribute."
Mr. Zhao nodded secretly. He was generous and sensible, and he didn't suffer any loss. His words were also clever.
This prescription is used to save lives, not to benefit a doctor personally. That's great!
However, to avoid trouble, Elder Zhao couldn't help but speak up: "Xiao Zhang, wait until Comrade Xiao Shen finishes writing the prescription. Take my note and indicate that this is Comrade Xiao Shen's contribution. Don't confuse the merits. The military hospital will award Comrade Xiao Shen an award later."
The doctor didn't object after hearing this. After all, the most important thing was the prescription to save the life.
Shen Lingning did not refuse. This was the benefit that Mr. Zhao had fought for for her, and she could not reject this kindness.
He stood up and hugged Fubao to thank Mr. Zhao.
Although Mr. Zhao is weak, he is no longer in danger of death.
The look he gave Shen Lingning was filled with gratitude, fear, and an indescribable curiosity...
This young military wife is so extraordinary!
