Chapter 520 Injury
The children plucked the feathers and gutted the dozen or so sparrows, then roasted them over a fire and ate them.
I must say, this thing is a bit small, but it tastes really good.
The children enjoyed their meal immensely and made a promise to come back next week to hunt sparrows and roast them.
To keep his promise, Sheng Xinhua went home, found some bullet casings, and reassembled the gun.
By the following Sunday, the children had gathered early and went to the open space to hunt sparrows again.
Surrounded by children and showered with compliments along the way, Sheng Xinhua couldn't help but feel a little smug.
So when he got to the open space, he didn’t test the gun with an empty gun first, but directly loaded it with gunpowder and homemade gun pellets.
After loading the gun, Sheng Xinhua pulled the trigger without hesitation.
After the gunshot rang out, Sheng Xinhua felt a warm, sticky sensation in his hand.
The gun barrel, made of the most ordinary poplar wood, had broken into two pieces, and was lying more than two meters away from Sheng Xinhua.
Startled, Sheng Xinyu quickly pulled out a handkerchief, stepped forward, and covered his brother's thumb, gripping it tightly. "Quick, get to the hospital right away!"
So when the nurse came out, she immediately recognized him as Director Zhou's eldest grandson.
"Brother, what's wrong?" Sheng Xinyu rushed over as soon as he saw something was wrong.
"I was chopping firewood, and I accidentally cut my hand." The boy didn't dare to tell the truth, so he lied.
"How did you get injured? It's so serious?" the doctor asked with a serious face after the wound was bandaged.
The doctor, enraged, glared at Sheng Xinhua twice, then wrote out a prescription and told the nurse to get the medication.
The doctor had a good relationship with the Zhou family and was quite familiar with Sheng Xiping and his wife. Seeing that Sheng Xinhua was stubborn and unlikely to speak, the doctor simply came out of the house.
The doctor was startled when he saw this and quickly called the nurses to come and help stop the bleeding, and chased all the children out.
The doctor put on a stern face and loudly questioned the children outside.
He saw his brother standing there, stunned, with blood streaming down his hand onto the ground.
Upon hearing this, the nurse immediately led the children to the treatment room and then went back to find a doctor.
"Bullshit, do you think I'm stupid? Who chops off their right hand when they're chopping firewood? Are you left-handed?"
Blood was gushing out of Sheng Xinhua's right thumb near the web of his hand; at this point, he had lost all feeling in his hand.
“Tell the pharmacy to put it on my tab first, and I’ll settle the score with his dad later.”
"If you don't behave, I'll call your grandma, you believe me?" The doctor glared at Sheng Xinhua and said angrily.
The doctor recognized Sheng Xinhua, but at that moment he didn't have time to ask what happened; checking the injury was the priority.
Sheng Xinhua loosened his grip, and as soon as the handkerchief was untied, blood gushed out.
"You lot, tell me honestly, how did Xinhua hurt his hand?"
I'm warning you, if you dare lie to me, I'll call each and every one of your parents.
"It really was an accidental cut," Sheng Xinhua retorted, refusing to tell the truth.
Sheng Xinhua then came to his senses, feeling weak in the limbs and dizzy, and almost stumbled to the ground.
The doctor stitched up the wound with two stitches, and thankfully the bleeding stopped. Afterwards, the wound was disinfected and bandaged.
"Xinhua, hold on tight and don't let go, we're taking you to the hospital."
And so, a group of children escorted Sheng Xinhua, rushing him straight to the Forestry Bureau Hospital.
The children looked at each other, unsure of what to say. Finally, one of the younger children couldn't withstand the pressure and spoke up.
"Stop watching the commotion and help my brother up!" Sheng Xinyu cried out anxiously, quickly calling to his friends who were staring blankly at him.
"My brother, my brother hurt his hand and bled a lot," Sheng Xinyu said, sobbing.
The doctor looked shocked, turned to look at Sheng Xinhua, and couldn't help but swear.
"Yes, it was Xinhua who made a gun himself, and he took us to hunt sparrows."
Zhou Mingyuan is the director of the Forestry Bureau, and Wang Chunxiu was the director of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of Songlin Hospital before she retired. Many people in the Forestry Bureau system know these two young men from the Sheng family.
Then, using pliers, tweezers, and other tools, they cleaned the wound on Sheng Xinhua's thumb, administered anesthesia, and stitched it up.
"Fine, you little brat, you're still being stubborn, aren't you? You just wait."
"Doctor, nurse, someone come quick! Help my brother!"
The nurse pursed her lips, took the form, and walked away with a smile.
A nurse heard the commotion and rushed over to check. "Oh dear, isn't this Xinhua? What happened to you?"
Shortly after, the nurse returned with the medicine, pulled down Sheng Xinhua's pants, and gave him a shot in the buttocks.
Sheng Xinyu was so anxious that tears streamed down his face, and his voice trembled as he spoke.
Sheng Xinhua's face and lips had turned white, and he looked at the doctor in fear.
"Damn, you little bastard, you've got some nerve."
The gun somehow exploded, and Xinhua's hand started bleeding.
The group of children also realized what was happening, and two of the older children rushed forward to support Sheng Xinhua.
Give him an anti-inflammatory injection to prevent the wound from getting infected. That brat, he's such a troublemaker, he deserves to suffer a bit.
These days, most anti-inflammatory injections are penicillin.
Penicillin injections are really painful. Sheng Xinhua kept groaning in pain and got a scolding from the nurse.
"Serves you right, when you were being naughty, didn't you think about the consequences?"
This is just a sprained hand, a little blood, it'll be fine if it gets stitched up in time. But what if it had sprained your eye? Wouldn't you be blind then?
"That little brat is always getting into trouble; he's even started playing with guns."
