Chapter 357: Treating Diseases and Saving Lives
At this time, an old man with white hair and beard stood up tremblingly and said to the pockmarked face with a pleading look,
"Good man, please be kind and hire a doctor for the child. As long as my grandson's illness is cured, I will do everything you say."
"What are you talking about? Didn't I tell you that I'll get a doctor for you after the problem is solved?" The pockmarked man looked impatient.
The woman holding the child was so anxious that she couldn't stop crying. She knelt on the ground, knocking her knees as if they were feet, and crawled to the pockmarked face.
"Good man, I know you are a kind-hearted person. Since you can give us white flour buns to eat, please show mercy and save my child!"
The pockmarked man took a lewd look at the woman holding the child and found that although the woman was not young, she was pretty and could barely be said to be quite pretty. He couldn't help swallowing his saliva and came up with a bad idea.
He rubbed his hands and said with a lewd smile, "It's not impossible to save your child, but what are you going to give me in return?"
The woman knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Master, if you can save my son's life, even if I can't repay your kindness in this life, I will repay you in the next life even if I have to work like a slave."
As soon as the woman finished speaking, before the pockmarked face could say anything, Radish Head spoke first,
"You are such a stubborn person! How could our Mazi brother be willing to let you work like a slave? He wants you to pledge your love to him. As long as you let Mazi brother go tonight, he can save your son's life."
"This is a great deal. Count me in. As long as you accompany me tonight and have fun, we will give you money." The hooked nose also had a lewd smile on his face, and he had thought of thousands of ways to torture people in his mind.
After hearing this, the woman was ashamed and angry, and was speechless for a long time.
When the beggars around heard this, they started to criticize him.
"Are you still human? How dare you take advantage of others in distress? Although we have fallen on hard times, we still have dignity. It's fine if you just watched us die without helping us, but you actually made such a vile request. You are truly shameless!"
"Don't you have any humanity left? Even though we are beggars, you can't bully us like this!"
"What's the difference between your despicable behavior and those robbers who took advantage of the situation to rob people?"
"It's bad enough that you didn't help, but you actually added insult to injury. You're truly a bunch of beasts! No! Each of you is worse than a beast!"
"Shut up, everyone! Who are you calling a beast?" Carrot Head glared, crossed his arms, and put on a domineering attitude. "I'm just kicking someone when they're down. What the hell do you dare to do to me?"
The hook-nosed man also followed suit, puffing his beard and glaring, "You guys are really bored, whoever dares to say anything, beware of my fist!
"Good man, you said that if we come here to block the door, you will find a doctor for my grandson. You can't go back on your word!" The old man looked anxious and begged by grabbing the pockmarked man's clothes tightly.
One of the middle-aged men was also furious. "We have never done such a disgusting thing. If it weren't for these sick children, we would starve to death rather than do such a wicked thing."
"Alright, everyone, shut up. You're not hungry anymore after eating my buns, are you? Look at what you can do. If you had the guts, why didn't you eat them in the first place?"
The pockmarked face came up to the woman impatiently, stretched his neck to take a look, and curled his lips.
"It's obvious this child is hopeless. No matter how much money you spend, it's like lighting a candle for a blind man. You'd better take him to the mass grave and dig a hole to bury him."
The woman was so anxious that she burst into tears and kowtowed repeatedly, "Please, sir, please be kind, my son is still breathing, he is not dead, please save him!"
"Are you done yet? I've already told you that your child is beyond saving. Why are you still hesitating? Hurry up and leave. If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have let you and your child come with me. You're just causing more trouble!"
Hearing this, the woman hugged the child in her arms and burst into tears, "Son, you can't leave me like this. How can I live like this?"
Chen Qingqing understood the whole story and smiled. It was true that when she felt sleepy, someone would hand her a pillow. As long as she could deal with these real refugees, she had a hundred ways to make those scoundrels leave.
Chen Qingqing stood up and walked out, parting the crowd and coming closer. She saw the boy in the woman's arms had a pale face, his eyes were closed, and his body was twitching constantly.
She squatted down and said seriously,
"Sister-in-law, I am a doctor. Please believe me, I can cure his illness."
The woman, who was almost in despair, knelt down and kowtowed when she heard that Chen Qingqing was the doctor, just like a drowning person grabbing a life-saving straw.
"Thank you, girl. Please help me take a look!"
Chen Qingqing ignored the woman and picked up the child from her arms. She found that the child was burning hot all over and was in convulsions. If not treated in time, the child's life might be in danger at any time.
She didn't bother to explain too much. As soon as she thought about it, a fever-reducing pill appeared in her hand. She immediately pried open the child's mouth and fed him warm water.
He then began to check, and just as he was about to unbutton the child's coat, the pockmarked man standing behind him stepped forward quickly.
"Stop, what are you doing?"
Chen Qingqing ignored him and continued with what she was doing.
Seeing this, the pockmarked man became anxious. He knew that Chen Qingqing was a doctor from Jishidiang, and he also heard that her medical skills were very advanced and she had cured many people's difficult and complicated diseases.
If she could save the child's life today, these beggars would definitely be grateful to her, and she would not be able to threaten them anymore.
Thinking of this, he shouted at the top of his voice, "She is not a doctor at all. She is deceiving you. Her purpose is to make us leave the restaurant. Let's not be fooled by this girl."
Carrot Head also quickly joined in, "You little girl, why are you pretending to be a good person here? If you can treat a disease, even a donkey can climb a tree. Hurry up and get up. There is no need for you to be so hypocritical."
"Shut your stinking mouths! You watched someone die without helping and not letting others help. I'm going to beat you bastards to death." The white-haired old man raised the stick in his hand and swung it at the pockmarked man.
The middle-aged man also clenched his fists and gestured fiercely at the pockmarked man and others.
Seeing this, all the beggars got up from the ground, protected Chen Qingqing in the middle, and glared at the pockmarked face and those lackeys pretending to be beggars.
The pockmarked face was frightened by these people and shrank his neck. He touched his nose involuntarily and didn't dare to make a sound...
