Chapter Four: Rong Nanxi's Extraordinary Medical Skills Save Her Mother-in-Law
The three of them first took a bus to the city, then transferred to another bus to the county, and finally got on a tractor when the sun was almost setting.
The car was very bumpy at this time, and Rong Nanxi hadn't ridden in one for a long time, so her head was throbbing.
By the time they reached the entrance of Bafang Village, it was completely dark. Rong Nanxi groggily opened her eyes and realized that she had unknowingly ended up in Fu Qingye's arms.
She didn't feel embarrassed at all, and sat up to look around this long-lost village.
Fu Qingye lowered his head, feeling a faint fragrance still lingering in his arms. He rubbed his fingers together, pursed his lips, and looked away.
The moon was high in the sky, illuminating the entire earth with exceptional brightness, unlike in later generations when the world would be plunged into darkness once the streetlights were turned off.
Rong Nanxi took a deep breath of the fragrance of the rice paddies, and the depression she felt due to her past life instantly dissipated.
Looking towards the village entrance, Rong Nanxi frowned. In this era, without computers or mobile phones, the people of Bafang Village should have been resting long ago. Why were there so many people gathered at the village entrance?
As they approached, an older woman wearing a floral headscarf recognized them and slapped her thigh, shouting anxiously, "My goodness! Xiao Shen, you're finally back! Your mother is dying!"
Rong Nanxi's heart skipped a beat. Did Fu's mother find out about her abortion so quickly?
In her past life, all she knew was that her mother died of anger after learning about her abortion.
But she didn't know exactly when it happened.
I didn't expect it to be so fast. Could it be that they discovered the letter they left for Fu Qingye?
Wait a minute, just now in the car she saw Fu Qingye staring blankly at that letter in his pocket, I don't know what he was thinking, she even tried to snatch the letter away... obviously she couldn't win.
It's impossible for him to give it to you willingly.
After all, in her previous life, she had casually picked up a red maple leaf and given it to Fu Qingye, who kept it in his pocket and touched it every day, cherishing it so much that it eventually crumbled into dust.
It caused Fu's father to spend a lot of time washing clothes. He spent the whole afternoon cursing by the river that day, so it was hard for her not to know.
Later, she learned that anything she gave him, no matter what it was, as long as it could be put in his pocket, he would put it in his pocket and touch it every day, including this letter.
Without thinking twice, Rong Nanxi hurriedly ran towards the Fu family's direction.
As for Fu Qingye, he jumped off the tractor and ran out as soon as he heard the news of his mother's accident. He was already out of sight.
When Rong Nanxi arrived at the Fu family's residence, a large number of villagers had already gathered in front of the fence to watch the commotion.
Rong Nanxi rushed in and saw Fu's mother lying on the ground, her eyes closed and unconscious. Fu Qingye was nowhere to be found.
Besides, there was another person Rong Nanxi hadn't expected.
Mu Qingxin.
In their past lives, the two of them didn't have much interaction. All they knew was that this person was Fu Qingye's childhood sweetheart, who was later specially recruited into the army.
The reason is unknown.
At this moment, Mu Qingxin's eyes were red and she apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, Aunt Fu, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have told you that Comrade Rong had an abortion, otherwise you wouldn't have..."
Great! The culprit has been found.
But how did Mu Qingxin find out?
Given Fu Qingye's personality, how could he possibly tell anyone?
All sorts of thoughts flashed through Rong Nanxi's mind in an instant. Without thinking too much, she squatted down and began to take Fu's mother's pulse.
In her past life, she couldn't sleep at night because she regretted causing the deaths of so many people. Later, she met an old man who said she had a talent for medicine and insisted on teaching her.
She reluctantly spent three years successfully learning all the knowledge the old man possessed.
A few years after she completed her studies, the old man passed away. Before he died, he specifically asked her to check his pulse and told her that it was a death pulse.
She remembered that his name was Zeng Chaoan! He was her master!
Later, she wanted to use medicine to benefit all people and atone for her sins, but she was repeatedly suppressed by the Lu and Chen families...
The sound of Mu Qingxin crying continued in my ears...
"Stop crying! You won't die, I can save you!" Rong Nanxi was a little annoyed by the crying.
Mu Qingxin froze for a moment, then cried even louder, "Waaah—"
"It's all your fault! Rong Nanxi! Why did you abort the child? If you hadn't, I wouldn't have known, and I wouldn't have told Auntie. Auntie wouldn't be so angry! Waaah—"
Upon hearing this, the onlookers turned to look at Rong Nanxi.
Since Rong Nanxi returned to Bafang Village, she has been supported by her grandparents and Fu Qingye every day. Fu Qingye does all the work in the fields for her, so he rarely appears. In addition, it was dark before and I didn't see her clearly, so I only found out that she had returned now.
"Rong Nanxi aborted the child? The child is already running around like a baby right after she aborted it?"
"What's wrong with that! Let alone hitting a child, even if you've just given birth, we women can still get out of bed and work!"
"Isn't it said that Rong Nanxi is a pampered young lady raised in the city? I've heard that these people are always different from us! They're so spoiled!"
"Rong Nanxi is the daughter of the Rong family in Bafang Village, not some pampered young lady. Please, aunts and sisters-in-law, be kind with your words. Qingye will definitely come to your door to express his gratitude another day!"
Fu Qingye's voice was firm and resolute, yet his hurried steps remained unaffected by his words; only the sweat pouring down his face betrayed his anxiety.
During this period of strict crackdown, he did not want Rong Nanxi to get into trouble because of it.
After entering the courtyard, Fu Qingye squatted down to pick up his mother, explaining to Rong Nanxi, "I borrowed a car, and I'm taking my mom there now..."
Before she could finish speaking, Mu Qingxin saw Fu Qingye let out another wail:
"You little brat, I'm so sorry! It's all my fault for ruining Aunt Fu's life. Don't worry, I'm willing to go to jail..."
Fu Qingye had no time to pay attention to Mu Qingxin, who was wailing with tears streaming down her face; he was in a hurry to take her to the hospital.
Just then, Rong Nanxi placed her hand on Fu Qingye's arm, "Don't touch her!"
Fu Qingye raised his eyes, his gaze unfathomable.
"Rong Nanxi, what else do you want to do?"
"I've tolerated whatever you've done to me in the past!"
"But now, my mother is on the verge of death. Are you trying to kill her?"
When Fu Qingye said the last sentence, his eyes were completely red.
He didn't understand.
Was Fu Qingye really that repulsive to her? She wouldn't even spare her own mother.
No!
The situation was critical, and Rong Nanxi spoke much faster: "If it had been a few minutes earlier, she might have been able to move, but she can't move now. Trust me, I can save her!"
"You studied medicine?"
Fu Qingye frowned; his men had not found out that she was a doctor.
"I've studied it."
Just then, the old woman who had been reporting the news at the village entrance ran over and overheard their conversation. She slapped her thigh in surprise.
“Xiao Shen, you can’t trust her! This girl is no good! She’s only been back in the village for a few months, and look what she’s done to your house.”
The auntie was the village chief's wife, and everyone called her Aunt Guo. Because her husband was the village chief, no one knew better than her how much the Fu family had sacrificed for Rong Nanxi.
Therefore, even though they had only met a few times, he still loathed Rong Nanxi to the extreme.
I believe you!
Fu Qingye's voice was firm.
Even though Rong Nanxi knew that this person liked him very much, he couldn't help but be stunned. This was his mother's life, and he had just handed it over to her like this?
"Why?" she asked instinctively.
"If you can't save her, I'll go down and apologize to her in your place."
Consider it punishment for his blindness and lack of understanding.
Of course, there was another reason. When he went to borrow a car from the son of the village chief in the next village, he was worried that his mother wouldn't make it to the county hospital, so he took the phone from his home and called the county hospital to ask if there were any emergency measures for her condition.
The doctor said that in this situation, the patient must be sent to the city hospital for treatment using imported equipment.
Bafang Village is far from the city. By the time Fu Qingye drives the person to the city hospital, the person will probably be long gone. Fu Qingye should be prepared.
Since that's the case, why not let Rong Nanxi give it a try? If it doesn't work out, he can apologize to his mother on her behalf.
