"The operation was successful. His vital signs are now stable. Because of the excessive bleeding, I gave him a nutrient injection of Xie Zhenting first. Next..."
"To prevent him from getting an infection after the operation, I will go and boil some Chinese medicine for him. You guys rush to the town hospital and buy him some anti-inflammatory injections and antipyretic injections to prevent him from having a high fever after the operation. I will give him the injections depending on the situation!"
Gu Nanzhi's firm and orderly voice came.
Xie Zhenting: “!!!”
I finally felt relieved.
Outside.
Gu Shidun's family was so happy that they were stunned.
"The operation was successful? Shi Dun was... saved?"
The two old village chiefs came forward, and their hearts, which had originally been without hope, suddenly gave rise to infinite hope!
"If nothing unexpected happens, he will be out of danger and can go home after being observed at my house for seven days!"
Gu Nanzhi smiled and nodded, then turned and went to the east supporting room to get medicine for Gu Shidun.
In fact, after this operation, she didn't even remember how much medicine she had secretly taken out from the laboratory space.
Disinfectant, anesthetic injection, cardiotonic... In the end, she even secretly gave the big brother in the front yard an injection of painkiller!
However, the fact that she had a space was an absolute secret, so in order to avoid suspicion, she asked Shidunge's family to go to the town hospital to get some medicine as a cover...
"Go home! Shidun can still go home!"
"Nanzhi, you are the Bodhisattva who saves people from suffering! I, an old woman, kneel down to you!"
"Sister Nanzhi, you tell me how much money you want. You saved our eldest brother, and we will raise the money for you even if we have to sell everything we have!"
“…”
Gu Nanzhi came out and looked at the people in the yard who were grateful to her. After a moment of hesitation, she reported the amount of the medical fee.
"Thirty dollars? How is that possible?!"
"It costs several yuan to go to the town hospital to see a common doctor. It costs more than 10 or 20 yuan to stay in the hospital. My eldest brother was injured like that, but he only charged 30 yuan for the consultation?"
"Sister Nanzhi, did you miscalculate? Just ask for it. We won't be short of your life-saving money!"
“…”
Not only did Gu Shidun's family members not believe that the medical fee was so cheap, even the neighbors who were watching did not believe it.
"Only thirty dollars!"
Gu Nanzhi smiled as he heard this and said, "The rest, I'll use the steamed bread that Brother Shidun gave me before!"
The price of anesthetics alone in those days was dozens of dollars. If you really calculated the price, even if Brother Shidun had many brothers and some money, they might not be able to raise the money!
Gu Nanzhi didn't really want to take their money. She just had a compassionate heart as a doctor and couldn't bear to see the big brother from the front yard who had been so kind to her pass away like this!
"No! How can we use steamed bread to pay for the life-saving money? Let's collect it!"
"Why not? I didn't have enough to eat before, and the steamed bread that Brother Shidun gave me saved my life!"
“…”
Just when Gu Nanzhi and Shidun's brothers were arguing over the medical fee, Shidun's wife knelt down and hugged Gu Nanzhi's thighs, "She's saved! She's really saved!"
"I leaned over the window and saw that Shidun's stomach had stopped bleeding!"
"Sister Nanzhi, sister Nanzhi who saves people from suffering, I kowtow to you, I thank you..."
“…”
As Shidun's wife spoke, she began to kowtow, and Gu Nanzhi couldn't even stop her.
Gu Nanzhi saw this: "!!!"
Everyone saw this: "!!!"
The way he looked at Gu Nanzhi changed!
Really...
Rescued?
They all saw clearly what Gu Shidun looked like when he brought it over!
With a ruptured stomach like that, it was too late to rush him to the town hospital. Even if he was rushed there, he probably wouldn't be able to be saved. But...
Gu Nanzhi was really rescued!
"Yan Dai Pai, you are a lucky man, and your eldest brother is also a lucky man, marrying such a capable wife!"
The old chief of Xiejia Village patted Old Man Xie on the shoulder with a look of admiration on his face.
“That’s it!”
Old Man Xie was smoking his pipe, raising his neck proudly to greet the envy from all directions.
"Thank you, old brother!"
After praising Old Man Xie, Village Chief Xie turned around and went to Village Chief Gu to make himself felt. "Such a good girl was sold to our village. We will definitely cherish her and will never follow the old path of your village!"
Village Chief Gu: "..."
He shouldn't have helped Old Man Xie and his wife just for a bottle of old wine!
"You don't know yet, do you? Zhenting's wife treats the people in our village, and it's free as long as they don't take medicine! Alas, this benefit is only available to people in our village, and others can't even get it..."
Village Chief Gu: "!!!"
My eyes are red!
If he vomits out the wine in his stomach now, can Nanzhi girl come back?
Gu Nanzhi: No! The kind that even ten cows can’t pull back!
Because the patient needed to rest, the neighbors who were watching were quickly persuaded to go back. Gu Shidun then stayed in the Xie family, and his wife stayed to take care of him.
In the evening, Shidun's second brother rode his bike to the town to get medicine. After Gu Nanzhi made sure there was no problem, she gave Gu Shidun the injection.
In the middle of the night, Gu Shidun developed a high fever. Shidun's wife came to call him. Gu Nanzhi got up and gave him a fever-reducing injection. He stayed with Shidun's wife until Gu Shidun's fever subsided, and returned to the house at daybreak.
The next day, Gu Nanzhi did not go up the mountain to collect herbs.
One reason was that there was a patient named Gu Shidun at home, and the other was that she had an operation yesterday and did not sleep well at night, so she was really tired!
At the same time, Xie's mother finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked Du Guirong to follow her down to the field.
"Why do you ask me to go to the fields? We are both daughters-in-law. If Gu Nanzhi doesn't go to the fields, why do you ask me to go to the fields?"
Du Guirong was a lazy person to begin with. She had been staying at home as a housewife for many days on the pretext of recuperating from her waist injury. She had everything provided for her, and now she was even more unwilling to move.
"you!"
Xie's mother was very angry with her. "Your sister-in-law doesn't work in the fields. She has to take care of your brother at home, take care of the patients, prepare herbs and see patients. What have you done?"
"Don't think I don't know that it's you two old people who have been cleaning up my eldest brother's shit. She just moved to the east room to make up the numbers!"
Du Guirong sneered and said, "I spent 500 yuan to buy a wife and worship her as my ancestor. She is not allowed to work on the land or enter the kitchen. She prepares herbs to treat people's illnesses. Does she give me the money she earns?"
"She doesn't give me money, why should I spoil her?"
"You! Your sister-in-law has been paying for the oil for our family recently!"
"If she wants to pay, let her pay. I haven't seen any money anyway!"
“…”
Seeing the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law choking, Gu Nanzhi, who was boiling medicine in the kitchen, was a little surprised.
"Why aren't you being a good mother-in-law today?"
Gu Nanzhi asked Xie Ruyun puzzledly.
"Sister-in-law, you don't know that Sister-in-law has always been using the excuse of recuperating at home to do nothing. But when Gu Shidun was sent here yesterday, she happened to come out to the toilet and saw..."
Xie Ruyun shook her head helplessly after hearing this and said, "You don't know, she jumped up so high at that time, crying out to the heavens and shouting for someone to pull her back. Her waist looked as good as it could be, how could it look like she needed to be taken care of?"
"She kept cursing people and making them die, which made Gu Shidun's family furious. My mother and I tried to persuade them but it was no use. In the end, if the two old village chiefs hadn't come, Gu Shidun wouldn't have been able to enter our house. My mother was also very angry..."
