Chapter 31 We Are a Family
Shang Ruoting hurriedly sent the old lady to the county hospital. After thanking Dr. Sun, she carried the person away.
Shang Ruoting took note of the kindness Dr. Sun expressed today and would definitely repay him when she had the chance in the future.
She carried Old Lady Shang on her back and ran quickly to the production team.
On the way, I happened to meet Tan Chen.
Tan Chen was led by Lin Erniu and walked towards her.
"Ruoting, what happened?"
Shang Ruoting didn't have time to explain in detail: "My grandma was injured by Zhang Lanxiang with a shovel. Doctor Sun can't treat her. We need to go to the county hospital. I'm going to borrow a tractor from the team leader."
Tan Chen was pulled by Lin Erniu to quicken his pace and followed closely behind Shang Ruoting: "I'll go with you."
Shang Ruoting refused without thinking.
"You have difficulty moving around, so you should stay home!"
Tan Chen was firm: "Although I can't see, I'm here so you have someone to talk to when you encounter problems."
Shang Ruoting felt that what he said made sense.
"Okay, you'll come with me in a moment."
As they were talking, they had already arrived outside the production team's door.
Zhao Fa also heard about the big thing that happened to Old Lady Shang. He was on his way out to go to the health center to check on the situation, and he met Shang Ruoting and others.
"Ruoting, how is your milk?"
Shang Ruoting wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Captain, my grandma needs to go to the hospital in the county town. I'd like to borrow the team's tractor."
Zhao Fa looked at Lin Erniu without saying a word.
"It just so happens that you can drive a tractor, so you can come with me."
Lin Erniu agreed and walked towards the tractor in the production team yard.
Zhao Fa was also very considerate and went to the office to get a quilt to spread in the tractor's cabin.
Several people worked together to settle Old Lady Shang down, and Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen sat beside her.
The tractor started and headed towards the county town.
Ta-da! Ta-da! Ta-da! Ta-da!
In her previous life, Shang Ruoting also rode a tractor when she went to the village to check on the crops, but the road there was flat, so she didn't feel anything, it was just a little noisy.
This time, however, the tractor's noise was so loud that it made her head hurt. The road was also incredibly bumpy, and she felt like her internal organs were about to burst out...
As a result, when she looked at Tan Chen, his expression was normal, as if it was someone else who was bumped around.
Shang Ruoting couldn't help but curl her lips. This man is really patient...
Accompanied by deafening noise, the few people bumped along the way and finally arrived at Fengxian People's Hospital at around 6 o'clock in the evening.
The tractor stopped in the hospital yard, and Shang Ruoting carried Old Mrs. Shang on her back and ran into the outpatient building.
Lin Erniu also supported Tan Chen and followed closely behind.
At this time, the hospital was quiet, with people only visible at the registration and payment windows.
Shang Ruoting put Old Lady Shang on a chair beside her and went to the window to register.
"Comrade, I need to register."
A lazy female voice came from inside: "Now you can only go to the emergency room, the registration fee is ten cents."
Shang Ruoting quickly took out the change left from buying cigarettes today and handed it over.
Soon, a hand reached out from inside and gave her a cure.
"Turn left to the third clinic."
Shang Ruoting carried Old Lady Shang on her back and walked in the direction the woman said.
When I walked into the clinic, I saw a young male doctor writing something.
Seeing the person coming, he hurried forward to help Shang Ruoting help Old Lady Shang down.
"What's wrong, old man?"
Shang Ruoting talked about the situation of Old Lady Shang.
The doctor quickly opened the gauze to check.
"The bleeding hasn't stopped yet, and it needs stitches."
Shang Ruoting nodded: "Doctor, please treat my grandmother as soon as possible."
The doctor wrote a prescription and gave it to Shang Ruo
Ting: "The old lady is bleeding too much. After the wound is sutured, she needs to be hospitalized for observation overnight and see if she has a fever. You can go and pay the bill first. I will prepare to sew her up now."
Shang Ruoting ran to the cashier with the bill.
The cashier inside was calculating with her abacus. Soon, she said to Shang Ruoting, "It's six cents in total."
Shang Ruoting...
She was so anxious to take her grandmother to see a doctor that she forgot about the money.
Just when she was in trouble, a hand stretched out from behind her, holding two big unity notes.
It’s Tan Chen!
Shang Ruoting took the money gratefully: "Thank you."
Tan Chen's answer was also sincere: "We are a family, there is no need to say thank you."
Shang Ruoting was deeply moved to hear such simple words from Tan Chen when she needed help the most.
However, this is not the time for her to feel sentimental.
She put the money into the window, and soon the cashier handed her several receipts with the hospital seal and change.
Shang Ruoting looked at Tan Chen with gratitude again before walking towards the emergency room.
The doctor had prepared the medical equipment and, together with a young nurse, took Mrs. Shang to the treatment room.
Bang...
The door of the treatment room was closed, keeping Shang Ruoting outside.
She paced back and forth outside the disposal room with her head down.
Tan Chen's voice suddenly rang out: "Don't worry, grandma is just suffering a little, she will be fine."
Shang Ruoting nodded: "Yeah!"
Although Tan Chen is not good at speaking, one can feel an inexplicable warmth from him.
Half an hour later, the door of the treatment room opened and Mrs. Shang came out supported by a nurse.
