But seeing how concerned and anxious they were, I couldn't bring myself to say a single cruel word.
Dr. Gao is a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, and she knows how to press acupoints. She pressed all over Song Lili's body, and it actually helped a bit; the pain wasn't so bad anymore.
She dared not move at all, afraid that if she moved, the baby would be lost.
Zhang Qinghua originally wanted Zhang Qingguo to go to town to buy medicine, but after thinking about it, he decided to go himself.
"Big Brother, I'm going to town." Whether Qingguo can find it is still unknown.
If he couldn't find it, he wanted to ask Wang Daming for help.
“Okay, you go quickly. I’ll keep an eye on Lili here,” Zhang Shengtian said hastily.
Whether the medicine works or not, it's always good to try it, just in case.
"Qingguo, do you have any money?" Zhang Shengtian called out from behind.
Zhang Qinghua stopped in his tracks; he really didn't have it on him.
"Zhang Zeyu suddenly said, and reached into his pocket, taking out all the money he had on him."
But he only had a few cents on him, which was of no use at all.
"I have some too." Chu Ci quickly took out what he had on him, a little more than usual, just one yuan.
When the others saw this, they quickly rummaged through their own pockets and stuffed whatever they could find into Zhang Qinghua's hand.
"Hurry up and take the money to town to check on the child; the child is the priority." This is what most people say.
"Why don't I go with you? That way we can find it sooner," Daqing said.
Zhang Qinghua took a deep look at his childhood friend and nodded, "Alright."
In the end, the two went to town together, and Song Lili was carried home by the crowd with a quilt laid on a wooden board.
She couldn't care less about anything else at that moment; she just prayed that her stomach would be alright. Otherwise, she wouldn't know how to face Zhang Qinghua.
With Dr. Gao pressing on her acupoints, her stomach seemed to be less painful, which made Song Lili feel excited. Could it be that she was saved?
The moment she thought that, her stomach cramped, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head, and all her hopes vanished.
I felt even more upset and worried. Was it really impossible to save it?
Song Lili felt it carefully, but there was no blood flowing out. What... what's going on?
I've never heard of a miscarriage without bleeding before.
As for Zhang Qinghua, after he and Daqing arrived in town, he let Daqing run around by himself while he went to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Instead of wandering around the town aimlessly, it would be better to ask Wang Daming; he should have some connections.
Besides, this whole thing was caused by Wang Shan, so it's only right that Wang Daming helps.
Zhang Qinghua arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative with resentment in his heart, and Wang Daming was there this time. He was found just in time.
"Why are you here?" Wang Daming looked at Zhang Qinghua, who had said he was looking for him, with surprise.
"Do you have any connections to buy traditional Chinese medicine?" Zhang Qinghua asked directly, as he was in a hurry.
"Traditional Chinese medicine? What for? I know the person, but what kind of herbs do you want?"
Zhang Qinghua gritted his teeth, "Because of your stupid cousin, Lili's baby is going to die. I need to get some medicine to prevent miscarriage."
In the end, Zhang Qinghua could not suppress the resentment in his heart and looked at Wang Daming with a cold gaze.
"What?!" Wang Daming jumped up in shock. "This...this is...Is Lili alright?"
He gave a wry smile. Nothing is impossible, especially for someone like his cousin.
Then, his heart sank. If... if Lili really got into trouble this time, they wouldn't even be able to be friends anymore.
It was him who harmed Lili and their child.
"Take me to find someone right now. I don't have time to listen to your nonsense." Zhang Qinghua's usually gentle eyes now held a bloodthirsty glint.
“Okay, come with me.” Wang Daming knew what was important and didn’t care about Zhang Qinghua’s attitude.
If we really have to argue about it, he's in the wrong.
The two went directly to the home of someone Wang Daming knew, and Zhang Qinghua took out the prescription and asked if they had the medicine listed on it.
The wait was agonizing and nerve-wracking; Zhang Qinghua would burst into tears of joy whenever she saw the person nod.
Even Wang Daming was overjoyed, saying, "That's wonderful, really wonderful! Old Li, hurry up and grab a few sets, we need them urgently."
The man called Old Li quickly went in to get the medicine, and then came out with the prescription and the medicine, saying, "This prescription is amazing."
Zhang Qinghua didn't have time to listen to what he had to say. He grabbed the medicine and rushed out the door, eager to get home.
Wang Daming hurriedly said to Lao Li, "I'll thank you properly another day," and then chased after him.
Grabbing Zhang Qinghua who was about to run away, he said, "Wait a minute, I'll go get my bike, that way it'll be faster."
Wang Daming owns a bicycle, but after Song Lili complained about it, he rarely rides it anymore. Now it's perfect for him to use.
"Hurry up." Zhang Qinghua said impatiently, but he nodded, knowing that he was right.
Wang Daming, with his good temper, smiled and said, "Okay."
While Zhang Qinghua was waiting for Wang Daming, Daqing was running around the town, sweating profusely, but after running for a long time, he couldn't find a single shop selling Chinese medicine.
Suddenly, he saw Zhang Qinghua standing in front of him and rushed over. "I couldn't find it at all."
Zhang Qinghua raised his hand and said, "I found it, and I've bought the medicine."
"Hurry up and go! What are you waiting for here?" Daqing grabbed Zhang Qinghua and started to run.
“I’m waiting for Wang Daming, he went to ride his bike.” Zhang Qinghua grabbed Daqing, feeling a little touched as he saw him sweating profusely with anxiety.
"Oh, then wait a while." Daqing finally caught his breath, stood up to rest, and took a breather.
A moment later, Wang Daming rode over on his bicycle. "Hurry up and get on, I'll take you there." Then, he saw Daqing and looked somewhat embarrassed.
Daqing quickly waved his hand, "Don't worry about me, you take Qinghua. You guys go back quickly, I'll walk back slowly."
"Alright, we'll be going now." Zhang Qinghua immediately told Wang Daming to leave, saying that Daqing would go back by himself.
Wang Daming used every ounce of his strength to get to Hongqi Village as quickly as possible and took Zhang Qinghua home.
Doctor Gao was still at the Zhang family's house, pressing acupoints on Song Lili.
Whenever he let go, Song Lili's stomach would hurt, so he had no choice but to keep pressing on it to relieve her pain.
Song Lili was no longer in pain, and her complexion had improved. She was lying weakly on the kang (a heated brick bed).
"Dr. Gao, the medicine has arrived. What should I do?" Zhang Qinghua rushed into the room and asked Dr. Gao.
"The medicine has been brought?" Doctor Gao was surprised. Could someone still find a place selling Chinese medicine at this time? Weren't many of those shops long gone?
Then, he smiled and said that with this medicine, the chances of saving the child would be greater.
This was his most treasured recipe, and he took it out today at great risk. Actually, he was grateful to Zhang Qinghua for what he had done before, which saved Hongqi Village from disaster, so he impulsively took out the recipe.
I never imagined that I could actually find Chinese medicine, and that all the ingredients in the prescription would be there.
