The doctor turned around and said, "He's fine, just injured his head and lost a little blood. Most importantly, he was already anemic, which is why he's unconscious."
"Give him an IV drip to help him recover, and he'll wake up soon."
Upon hearing this, Yu Shan's tense nerves instantly relaxed, and he let out a long sigh of relief. The others also breathed a sigh of relief, and the fatigue and worry on their faces instantly dissipated.
After walking all night, everyone was starving.
Yu Yuehua told her father, then took the money and tickets Xie Yan had given her and bought some steamed buns.
He originally wanted to buy big meat buns; the aroma of those meat buns was enough to make his mouth water just thinking about them, but he simply didn't have enough tickets.
There were quite a few people who came this time; besides the educated youth, there were twenty-one other people from the village.
People only came to help because of his father's influence. They've been working hard all night, so they insist on having a good meal.
Yu Yuehua bought a big bag of hot steamed buns; steam was rising from the bag, making it feel cozy.
He held the bag tightly in both hands and walked carefully toward the hospital.
Inside the hospital, the young people from Xiliu Village huddled in a quiet corner, munching on flatbreads, their faces covered in dust.
After a night of running around, their clothes were wrinkled and not very clean, and their hair was messy.
Each person held a different colored, dry biscuit in their hand, chewing it with difficulty.
Everyone was on edge. This was their first time in a hospital. The pungent smell of disinfectant filled the air, and the unfamiliar, cold white walls around them, along with the hurried footsteps of medical staff and patients, made them inexplicably anxious.
Having sweated profusely from traveling all night, they were sticky and disheveled. Faced with the neatly dressed people coming and going in the hospital, they unconsciously lowered their heads, feeling a sense of inferiority.
When Yuehua arrived with a bag of steamed buns, she saw this scene and was both annoyed and amused.
The group of silly boys looked like wilted eggplants, squatting listlessly in the corner, looking exactly like a group of down-on-their-luck beggars.
The occasional passersby cast curious glances at him, but also undisguised disdain.
Yu Yuehua recalled Xie Yan's words of advice before their departure and couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration. Her brother-in-law was truly prescient. He had said that people in the hospital were cold and indifferent, and that they should not be impolite. He had even drawn a detailed map of where to buy steamed buns in his notebook and specifically reminded them to bring a water bottle, saying that the hospital had free hot water.
This is what made these people feel some warmth early in the morning.
When Yu Erwa and the others saw Yu Yuehua approaching from afar, carrying a large bag of steaming white steamed buns, their eyes lit up instantly.
The dry steamed buns in their hands suddenly lost their appeal, and everyone started swallowing hard.
Looking at their shameless, greedy expressions, Yu Yuehua smiled helplessly, "What are you waiting for? Come and get them! Two each."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Erwa and the others surrounded Yu Yuehua like hungry wolves pouncing on their prey.
Looking at the white steamed buns in the bag, I wiped my hands on my clothes before daring to take them.
Yu Erwa felt the warmth of the steamed bun coming from his palms, and he grinned from ear to ear.
He looked at the large white steamed bun in his hand, so white and soft, a stark contrast to his dark hands. He carefully took a bite, and the soft, sweet flavor of the bun instantly spread in his mouth.
He squinted his eyes, chewed slowly, reluctant to swallow, as if he were savoring the most delicious food in the world.
At that moment, he felt that white steamed buns were the most delicious food in the world.
Unmarried young men, with their full appetites, devoured two steamed buns in just a few bites; married men, after finishing one, carefully put the other back into the bag containing the buns, intending to take it home for their children to try.
They knew in their hearts that such soft and sweet white steamed buns were from the city, and their own children had never eaten them before, so they brought them back for them to try.
Seeing that everyone had started eating, Yu Yuehua stopped paying attention to them, took the kettle to fetch water, and then went to find her father with the steamed buns.
As Yu Yuehua approached the ward door, she saw the group of educated youth, and her face instantly darkened.
Thinking about this incident, he was filled with resentment. In his view, these educated youth were just a bunch of brainless troublemakers.
He didn't push them around; he simply pushed open the door to the infirmary and handed the steamed buns and hot water to his father.
Gu Bin looked at the steaming bun in Yu Yuehua's hand and instantly realized he was hungry too.
He turned to Wan Chun'er and Wang Xiao, "I'm going to buy some steamed buns, do you want some?"
These two were in no mood to eat right now! Especially Wan Chun'er, she was almost crying. She shook her head, her dry lips preventing her from speaking.
Wang Xiao actually wanted to eat it, but seeing Wan Chun'er like this, he couldn't say he wanted to eat it, so he could only force himself to shake his head.
Seeing this, Gu Bin stopped paying attention to them and went out to eat his meat buns.
Yu Shan was slightly taken aback when he saw the large white steamed bun his son handed him. He then frowned and scolded, "We brought steamed buns. Why are you wasting money like this? Do you have too much money to burn?"
Yu Yuehua had anticipated her father's response and quickly explained, "This money was given to me by Xie Yan, who specifically said he wanted to buy it as a gift for you."
Seeing her father's gaze turn towards the door, Yu Yuehua immediately understood and added, "I've also bought food for everyone in the village, so you can eat without worry." After saying that, she picked up her share of steamed buns and began to eat heartily.
Shen Jianguo, who was standing to the side, was already starving.
After a long night's journey, his legs were still aching, and his stomach was rumbling.
Watching the Yu family father and son eat steamed buns, he unconsciously swallowed, hoping to get one for himself.
But the father and son acted as if they didn't see him, and just kept eating.
Shen Jianguo was both angry and annoyed, his fists clenched tightly. To save face, he didn't say a word, turned around and strode out of the hospital.
A moment later, Shen Jianguo walked into the ward triumphantly with two large meat buns. He deliberately sat in a conspicuous spot, took a bite, and the soup spilled out. As he ate, he glanced sideways at Yu Yuehua, his eyes seeming to say, "Eating a meat bun makes you so great."
Yu Yuehua almost laughed in anger when she saw this. She inwardly cursed the man, thinking, "He's crazy! It's just two meat buns!"
It's like nobody's never eaten it before.
Hmm, it seems he really can't afford it!
This made her even angrier. She curled her lip in disdain, turned around, and strode out of the ward without even glancing at him.
The doctors at the county hospital were indeed skilled, and Song Jianshe slowly regained consciousness around noon.
He groggily opened his eyes and saw Shen Jianguo sitting not far away. His eyes instantly reddened. He was about to boast about his "heroic deeds" when he suddenly realized that he was in an unfamiliar ward, not the familiar educated youth settlement.
