“Beep, beep, beep—”
The line on the other end of the phone was always busy and couldn't be connected.
Jiang Xiaoqiao called one, two, three... Finally, when she made the fifth call, there was a response from the other end.
"Hello? This is the Red Star State-Owned Hotel in Beijing. Who are you looking for, comrade?"
"Hello, comrade. I'm Jiang Xiaoqiao. I'm looking for Mr. Chen. It's urgent. Please."
"Okay, please call back in five minutes."
"Thanks."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xiaoqiao practically counted the five minutes that passed.
After five minutes, Jiang Xiaoqiao immediately made a call.
This time, the call was connected quickly.
"Hey, Xiao Qiao, it's me. What happened to you? Don't be afraid. Tell me if you have anything. I'll come to you tomorrow!"
When Jiang Xiaoqiao heard the familiar voice of Old Chen, tears welled up in her eyes.
"Grandpa Chen!"
"Don't cry, girl! Was it that kid named Gu who bullied you? Or who else? Tell me, or I'll smack him in the head!"
"Grandpa Chen!" Jiang Xiaoqiao wiped her tears and said, "No one is bullying me. I just need help from Old Nie."
"That old bastard Nie Xing?"
"What's wrong? Are you injured or someone else is injured?" Old Chen asked sharply, "Is Gu kid injured?"
"Grandpa Chen, a friend of mine is seriously injured. Can you help me find Elder Nie?"
Jiang Xiaoqiao didn't intend to let Old Chen know that the injured person was Gu Xiangbei. If he knew, he would definitely take the train to the Qianjin Brigade to find her.
Jiang Xiaoqiao didn't want Old Chen to worry about her affairs and run around for her at his age.
Old Chen on the other end of the phone heard what Jiang Xiaoqiao said and said, "Okay, Xiaoqiao, don't worry. Old man Nie is eating at the restaurant now. I'll call him over for you!"
"Thank you, Grandpa Chen!"
There was no response from the other end of the phone for a while. After a while, there was a very noisy sound.
"Old Chen, you old man, I haven't finished my dumplings yet! They won't taste good later!"
"Just answer the phone first. When you're done, I'll make as many dumplings as you want!"
"You said it, don't go back on your word later!"
"That's what I said, that's what I said, okay? You won't lose a single dumpling!"
"Hey, Xiao Qiao, are you still there?"
"Grandpa Chen, I'm listening."
"I've captured him for you. If you have anything you want to know, just ask him."
"Thank you, Grandpa Chen." Jiang Xiaoqiao choked up as she thanked him. Ever since she heard Old Chen's voice, her tears have been flowing non-stop.
In front of Gu Xiangbei and the others, Jiang Xiaoqiao didn't dare to cry, for fear of adding to their psychological burden.
In front of Li Chenghai, the driver Xiao Wang, the county doctors and nurses, Jiang Xiaoqiao did not cry.
"Ahem, is that Xiao Jiang? What do you want to talk to me about?"
A kind and gentle voice came from the other end of the phone. This person was the only person in the country that Li Chenghai mentioned: Nie Xing.
"Mr. Nie, it's like this, I have a friend..."
On the phone, Jiang Xiaoqiao told Nie Xing in detail about Gu Xiangbei's injury and asked him if he had a better solution.
On the other end of the phone, Nie Xing sighed.
"Xiao Jiang, if the situation is better, or if he is a local from Beijing and comes to me for treatment right after being injured, then I still have a 50% chance of success."
"But in this situation, I only have a 10% chance of success, and this is the result under the most ideal conditions..."
Jiang Xiaoqiao hung up the phone in despair. Is there really no other way?
After learning about what Jiang Xiaoqiao and Gu Xiangbei had encountered, 5200 urgently transferred a batch of items to the system mall.
Sensing Jiang Xiaoqiao's inner despair, it quickly appeared.
[Of course, there is a solution.]
Jiang Xiaoqiao's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly: [5200, do you have a solution?!]
[This depends mainly on you, the host. If you learn acupuncture and massage to an advanced level, and combine it with advanced medicinal dietetics, there's hope that Gu Xiangbei's leg can be healed.]
There is still a 99.9 percent hope.
【only……】
"Just what?" Jiang Xiaoqiao asked nervously. 5200's words were the best news of the day, and Jiang Xiaoqiao didn't want her excitement to end up in vain.
[It's just that I went to headquarters specifically to transfer these two skills. Our system stipulates that the host can only redeem and learn three skills within five years.]
[The host has previously exchanged and learned the Great Strength skill and the Quick Reading skill. Now there is only one skill opportunity left.]
[If you, the host, insist on exchanging for a fourth one, it will cost you one thousand heartbeat points.]
[From beginner to intermediate to advanced, two skills cost 340 heartbeats, plus 1000 heartbeats, for a total of 1340 heartbeats.]
Jiang Xiaoqiao said without hesitation: [Flowers!]
This heartbeat value is worth spending. Even if it means spending all her heartbeat value, Jiang Xiaoqiao is willing to do so.
After all, most of her heart rate values were given by Gu Xiangbei.
Finally, there was good news. She just had to find some time in private to study and master the newly acquired skills, and then Gu Xiangbei's leg might be cured.
When returning to the ward, Jiang Xiaoqiao had a smile on her face.
In the ward, Gu Xiangbei had already persuaded Gu Weimin and Gu Jinhua and planned to go home to recuperate.
He knew his physical condition. His left leg could not be cured, but the injury to his right leg was not serious. He just needed to go to the county hospital to change the dressing in time.
If the brigade clinic has medicine, Gu Xiangbei can go directly to Mr. Zhou to exchange it. Mr. Zhou's medical skills are much better than those of the doctors in the county town.
After hearing what Gu Xiangbei said, Jiang Xiaoqiao thought about it and agreed to be discharged from the hospital.
There is no point in them wasting time here. It would be better for them to go back to the brigade and take good care of themselves. She will study hard and give Gu Xiangbei acupuncture treatment as soon as possible.
Fortunately, Xiao Wang had not returned to the county town yet, and he still drove Jiang Xiaoqiao and the others back to Qingshan Brigade.
When I got back, it was almost time to get off work.
The children had finished school long ago and were running in the fields. When they saw a car coming into the village, they were all very happy and excited and ran after the car.
"Car! Car!"
"Four-wheeler, beep beep!"
"Whoa, who's joining our team?"
"Hey, isn't that Jinhua? My goodness, how did she get into the car?"
The arrival of a four-wheeled vehicle in the village was as rare as seeing a foreign spectacle.
Everyone was about to go up and tease him, until they saw Gu Xiangbei, with pale lips, sitting in the car. They watched him being carried out of the car by Gu Weimin, and saw the white gauze wrapped around his leg...
Everyone suddenly became quiet. A child wanted to go forward and touch the car, but was stopped by his parents.
Jiang Xiaoqiao and Gu Jinhua thanked Xiao Wang. Gu Jinhua invited Xiao Wang into the house for tea, but was politely declined.
