After examining Hu Dazhi, Ruan Tang said, "The left first rib is fractured, but it hasn't broken the skin. You can use a chest strap to bind the rib cage to reduce the movement of the rib ends. It will heal on its own slowly."
Ruan Tang wrote a list and sent the Hu family to prepare it. "Broken bones hurt when you breathe. If you're afraid to breathe and the trachea can't expel secretions, you'll directly develop a lung infection and very likely suffocate to death. Therefore, the most important thing is painkillers."
The Hu family sent several groups of people to the nearby village to look for barefoot doctors. Ruan Tang directed the Hu family's needlework expert to make a chest belt.
After the chest strap was tied around Hu Dazhi's chest, his breathing became much more stable.
Seeing this, Ji's family knew that Ruan Tang was quite capable, so they apologized and begged Ruan Tang to treat Ji Rong.
Ji Rong's condition was much more serious than Hu Dazhi's. She had three broken ribs and had to wear a multi-head chest strap for fixation.
After the Hu family found the painkillers, Ruan Tang injected the two with a certain dose and sent them to the hospital safely. "If the pain is so severe that you have difficulty breathing on the way, take painkillers."
The seriously injured patient was sent to the hospital on a bullock cart. Ruan Tang was worried and went to give him some instructions.
Ji Nanfeng leaned against the door frame, his eyes closely following Ruan Tang.
When Ruan Tang turned around, she looked into Ji Nanfeng's dark eyes, who was staring at her lazily. Her heart began to beat fast.
"Busy?"
Ruan Tang didn't dare to look directly into Ji Nanfeng's eyes, "Let's go too."
Ruan Tang walked in front, her back straight, deliberately ignoring the fiery gaze falling on her.
Song Mu Leng Leng suddenly approached from behind, and Ruan Tang was pulled into Ji Nanfeng's arms.
Ruan Tang twisted her waist vigorously and groaned, wanting to leave.
"Don't move." Ji Nanfeng held her uneasy waist, imprisoning her in his arms like a hunter.
Ruan Tang looked up in surprise, and was locked in those hungry eyes. Ji Nanfeng lowered his head and rested his hand against her forehead. "My fiancée, give me a kiss?"
Ruan Tang bit her lip shyly, and was so shocked by Ji Nanfeng that she was speechless.
"Don't bite." Ji Nanfeng's rough fingertips stroked her lips, caressing them gently, and the temperature on her lips soared.
Ji Nanfeng chuckled and kissed her hot lips lightly, their lips pressed against each other, one hot and one cold.
Ruan Tang's tense body collapsed in an instant, her hands tightly grasped Ji Nanfeng's collar, and her whole body leaned on Ji Nanfeng's arms, ready to be picked.
Ji Nanfeng only tried it briefly. He restrained himself and didn't dare to bully her too much. There were still three days before the divorce date, and he was afraid of scaring her away.
As he went back to the educated youth point, Ruan Tang's mind was blank. He got off his bicycle and rushed to the educated youth point.
Ji Nanfeng chuckled, "Don't forget—your betrothal gift."
Ruan Tang strode back, snatched the handlebars of the bicycle, and rushed into the house with the bicycle.
Ji Nanfeng put his hands in his pockets, with a slight smile in the corners of his eyes.
Turning sideways, he saw two people standing in the yard of the educated youth. He just nodded casually and left.
In the yard, Chen Yongchang was talking to Du Xueqing.
Ever since that day when she had sex with Xu Yan, Du Xueqing had been locked up in the house by the Xu family on the pretext of recuperating. She took advantage of the chaos in the village in the afternoon to take a walk around and then pretended to be back from visiting relatives.
Du Xueqing brought some snacks from the Xu family and specially picked out two mung bean cakes for Chen Yongchang.
As they were talking, Ruan Tang came back unexpectedly, pushing a bicycle.
A second marriage, and the Ji family actually gave her a bicycle?! Back when Ruan Tang and Xu Yan got married, they only got a marriage certificate and set up a few tables.
Du Xueqing looked at Ji Nanfeng's back, broad shoulders and narrow waist, with a pair of straight and powerful legs supporting his cotton pants, outlining his strong legs. Just looking at him like this, Du Xueqing couldn't help but feel weak in the knees.
Chen Yongchang moved sideways to block Du Xueqing's sight: "Why are you looking at him?"
Du Xueqing reluctantly averted her gaze and sighed deeply, "I'm worried about Tangtang. Isn't it too hasty to remarry right after getting divorced? The man doesn't look like someone you'd be happy with. Will he hit a woman?"
Chen Yongchang advised, "I heard that Ji Nanfeng is a retired soldier and has been arranged to work at the county machinery factory. I believe that soldiers would not point guns at ordinary people. Maybe they are just cold-hearted."
Du Xueqing had a flash of inspiration. Does this mean that Ji Nanfeng is eating the supplied food?
At night, the village became noisy again.
This time we sent the injured to the hospital and everyone came back.
Secretary Hu led the Hu family to the Ji family's door in person and expressed his sincere gratitude to Ji Nanfeng and Ji Nanfeng's wife Ruan Tang.
"Nan Feng, you've married a wonderful wife! With such a wonderful family, it will be hard for the Ji family not to prosper in the future."
Ji Nanfeng's face looked a little ugly. Before getting the marriage certificate, he just wanted to hide Ruan Tang.
Xu Li couldn't stand hearing this. Was Secretary Hu mocking them for driving out the golden goose that lays eggs? But she didn't dare offend Secretary Hu, so she had to change the subject and ask why Xu's father and his family hadn't returned when everyone from the Hu and Ji families had returned.
Secretary Hu kept his mouth shut, but Uncle Ji's family members couldn't help but mock him.
"You, the Xu family, were afraid we'd steal your bikes, so you rode them straight to the hospital. That's right, we were the first to get to the hospital and the first to get into the operating room. The time we saved was enough to get to the city hospital..."
It turned out that Ji Rong was the most seriously injured among the three injured people. Thanks to Ruan Tang's proper treatment and good care along the way, Ji Rong was pushed into the operating room after leaving the hospital. The operation went very smoothly and he will be discharged from the hospital after a while.
As for Hu Dazhi, since he was the first one to be treated by Ruan Tang, he could have been brought back today, but the Hu family didn't care about the bed fee and insisted that he stay in the hospital for a while longer.
As for Uncle Xu's son, Xu Hai, although his injuries weren't the most serious, he still had to be strapped to someone's back and ridden through the bumpy roads. His broken ribs had punctured his internal organs and skin. After the county hospital wheeled him into surgery, the doctors only performed emergency treatment before sending him directly to the city hospital.
The doctor said that whether he could survive depended on his fate.
When the villagers heard this, they sighed in awe. At the same time, they began to think that Ruan Zhiqing was a real talent and that they would have to get along well with him in the future.
Thinking of this, the villagers looked at Xu Li with strange eyes.
Secretary Hu added, "Tomorrow, I'll go to the village office and recommend Ruan Zhiqing as our brigade's barefoot doctor. This time, no matter who has objections, keep them to yourself!"
Barefoot doctors only worked in the fields during the busy farming season, yet they earned ten yuan a day. Only the strongest laborers in the village could earn ten yuan a day, while ordinary women could only earn four or five yuan a day.
In the past, the brigade had also proposed recommending someone to be a barefoot doctor, but no matter who was recommended, there were always people who were dissatisfied, so the process was delayed. It was not until this incident that we realized how inconvenient it was to not have a barefoot doctor.
