Chapter 34 A Matter of Life and Death



Chapter 34 A Matter of Life and Death

Zhou Ye asked in a calm voice, "What's wrong?"

Bai Xue said with a grin, "So you heard you talking in your sleep? Do you have a brother? I heard you call him brother."

Maybe I was just still half asleep.

Zhou Ye relaxed his grip a little and said casually, "Maybe I've been too tired these past few days and I dreamed about my family."

"That's good. I was so worried last night. But I've been so tired these past few days. Even I, who am quite healthy, am too tired to get up, let alone you."

Sister Zhou, I made you some steamed egg custard this morning to help you recover!

"OK!"

Bai Xue was a simple-minded person. After laughing and joking, she washed up and went to cook!

The older educated youth in the front yard had all gone to work, some of the new educated youth were still asleep, and Su, the educated youth in the back yard, hadn't heard any movement yet.

Zhou was also thinking about her family; she was eager to know how her grandparents and parents were doing.

The cowshed was so dilapidated, how much suffering did they endure?

But the first priority is to gain everyone's trust.

Bai Xue quickly made several bowls of steamed egg custard and handed one to Zhou Ye: "Why isn't Su Zhiqing up yet?"

Do you really like sleeping in so much?

Zhou Ye didn't understand either, and chatted with Bai Xue while eating.

But Su Yunzhou didn't get up even after he finished eating.

"Zhou Zhiqing, Bai Zhiqing, the village chief is here. He wants to tell us about tomorrow's work schedule."

"OK!"

Around 8 a.m., Chen Lan came to the backyard to call for people.

Zhou Ye and Bai Xue arrived at the front yard, where everyone had gathered.

The village chief was very kind to Zhou Ye and Bai Xue: "I heard about you helping Su Zhiqing cook."

Thank you so much!

Su, the educated youth, was in poor health and refused to eat with everyone at the educated youth settlement, so I was always worried about him.

"Now that I'm with you all, it's a huge weight off my shoulders!"

"It's alright, it's alright, village chief. Su Zhiqing isn't picky about food; she likes to eat everything! No need to thank me!"

Bai Xue answered without thinking.

Actually, I was screaming inside: Give me a hundred yuan a month, and I'll cook all the dragon meat in the sky for him! Even if he's a picky eater, I still think he's incredibly cute.

The village chief was internally fuming: Not picky about food? Is this talking about Su Zhiqing? It's not like his family hasn't raised her before. She won't eat cornmeal, she won't eat black flour, she won't eat vegetables, and she won't even eat the lard pancakes that he rarely makes.

That's fragrant lard!

But... alright, this educated youth is a good one.

"That's good, that's good, hehe..."

The village chief laughed it off.

Then they began preparing to instruct everyone on how to start work the next day.

Suddenly, something occurred to him: "Hey... what did Su Zhiqing eat this morning?"

Zhou paused for a moment, then said softly, "Su Zhiqing should not be up yet!"

"impossible!"

The village chief shouted loudly, then turned pale and rushed to the backyard like a madman.

Everyone was startled. What... happened?

"Tap tap..."

"Su Zhiqing, are you alright? Su Zhiqing, open the door!"

"Su, the educated youth!"

I called for a long time, but no one answered the door.

Zhou Ye then realized something was wrong. Had Su Yunzhou had a relapse last night?

On Sunday, observing his complexion, she knew he was weak and might have low blood sugar, and her expression immediately became anxious.

Step forward and say, "Kick down the door!"

The village chief didn't care about anything else; he was so flustered earlier that he remembered to kick the door.

With a "thump," the door was kicked open, and Su Yunzhou, fully dressed, was seen lying on the edge of the bed, seemingly trying to get up in the middle of the night, but suddenly fainted.

At this moment, his face was pale, and his lips had lost all color; he looked terrifying!

The village chief was so frightened that he trembled all over, and slowly and shakily extended his finger and placed it under Su Yunzhou's nose.

"ah!"

"Dead! Dead!"

The village chief was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and wailed, "It's over, it's over! I'm finished!"

What am I going to do if someone dies here?

What will happen to the village?!

Zhou also felt that the village chief's face was even paler than Su Yunzhou's!

He shook his head and stepped forward to take her pulse.

Su Yunzhou was indeed suffering from hypoglycemia. He probably felt unwell and wanted to find some candy, but he didn't have time!

At this moment, he fell into a coma.

He was just barely breathing; he wasn't dead at all!

The village chief looked at Zhou Ye anxiously: "You know medicine?"

But the distrust in those eyes was obvious to everyone.

"Is he dead? He's not dead, is he?" This was the village chief's last struggle!

"No, it's just a little dangerous!"

Chen Lan chimed in, "Zhou Zhiqing doesn't know any medicine, does she? She's only fifteen! Shall we call a doctor right away?"

Zhou Ye looked at the village chief. He was willing to treat the patient, but he couldn't just volunteer himself.

The village chief pondered for a moment. If he really wasn't dead, that would be wonderful! "Zhou Zhiqing, I know you mean well, but you're too young."

I'd better call the doctor.

Zhou Ye raised an eyebrow; this was clearly a sign of distrust!

"OK!"

Zhou readily agreed and stood by.

Bai Xue pouted and said, "Sister Zhou, don't be sad, I believe you!"

Zhou Zhiming, who was a gofer, rode the village chief's bicycle with the village chief's son, Xie Jianshe, to fetch a doctor!

The old doctor was a traditional Chinese medicine doctor who rarely left his post, but he was the one who had been taking care of Su Zhiqing's health.

They arrived quickly, panting heavily...

The village chief made way for him and said respectfully, "Doctor, please take a look. I can't feel any breath in him."

The old doctor felt the pulse, and his eyebrows furrowed.

Everyone looked at him seriously and intently...

After a while...

"His breathing is very weak, and he is deficient in both qi and blood..."

The doctor was in a dilemma; with the qi and blood so deficient, it would be difficult to replenish them in the future.

Moreover, his breathing is so weak right now...

"Doctor, how do you feel? How should we treat this? Or should we go to the county hospital?"

The village chief's urgency puzzled Zhou. What was the relationship between Su Zhiqing and the village chief? Or did Su Zhiqing have a powerful family background?

Otherwise, the village chief wouldn't care so much about an ordinary educated youth, would he?

The old doctor shook his head helplessly, and the village chief felt a chill run down his spine.

"I don't have any better ideas. Let's try some sugar water first and see if it helps! I'll keep sugar cubes on hand or buy some glucose from the hospital from now on."

in case! "

He was about to leave!

The village chief stopped him, anxiously asking, "Doctor, please take another look? No matter what, let's wake him up first."

"What will we do if you leave now?"

The old doctor said helplessly, "I've tried everything these past few months. He's taken his medicine and been hospitalized at the county hospital."

I'm really out of ideas!

He was born weak, and this kind of situation will become more and more common in the future, which will be a matter of life and death!

What can an old man like me do?

You should find another doctor yourself!

"What!?" The village chief looked at Su Yunzhou on the bed and asked with difficulty, "What will happen if he is always in a coma?"
