The head of the Huo family and the inner disciple of the Lord of Lanling City were sworn brothers regardless of age. When he knew that his best friend was in the epidemic area, he went straight to the epidemic area. After some inquiries, he found out that the young master of Lanling was not in the epidemic area at all, because none of the residents in the epidemic area said they had seen the young master of Lanling.
He didn't believe it. That little girl Hua Fushu must be in the epidemic area. Apart from her, few people dared to call for doctors to come to Beijing in the name of the Lord of Lanling City, let alone spread the word that the head of the Huo family and the young master of Lanling were treating patients in Beijing.
"Father, she may have concealed her identity so that no one in the capital knows that she is the Young Master of Lanling."
Huo Dalang looks like the head of the Huo family, and has the same extraordinary demeanor as the head of the Huo family when he was young.
The head of the Huo family and Hua Fushu are sworn brothers and sisters. According to seniority, his son Huo Dalang should call Hua Fushu "Auntie", but Huo Dalang never calls Hua Fushu "Auntie" because he and Hua Fushu are of similar age and he cannot bring himself to call her "Auntie".
"That damn girl, don't let me catch her. She made me travel across mountains and rivers to treat her illness. She sent a letter asking for treatment, and she ran away. She didn't want to get married, but she didn't even invite us to the wedding. What do you think of us Lanling? If she doesn't use her golden needles and nine acupuncture points to apologize, I won't forgive her." The head of the Huo family was still angry when he thought about how Hua Fushu didn't even invite them to her wedding. Lanling was not a million miles away from her family.
Huo Dalang held his forehead with his hand. He didn't know how many times he had heard his father talk about this. His father didn't mind, but he was tired of hearing it.
A few months ago, when my father received Hua Fushu's letter in Lanling, he kept talking about the fact that there would be no wedding banquet for several days. After arriving at Ouyang Yuanzheng's house in Wuyin, he kept talking about it every few days. After Master Ouyang got better, they set off to Beijing to visit Hua Fushu.
Before arriving in the capital, I heard that Young Master Lanling and the head of the Huo family were treating the epidemic in the capital. This made my father even angrier. He kept nagging about it every day. What he said most was that Hua Fushu should hand over her original acupuncture technique - the Nine-Acupoint Golden Needle, as an apology!
Huo Dalang kindly explained for the 'aunt', "Dad, she didn't do it on purpose. Maybe she was forced to marry by her parents. Have you forgotten that she hid in our house when she ran away from home that year?"
"I don't care about her. There is no wedding wine, and no wedding cakes." The head of the Huo family said angrily. It is a custom in Lanling that when a newlywed gets married, they will send a portion of wedding cakes to their relatives and friends to share the joy.
Huo Dalang suddenly saw a familiar figure in the crowd ahead. He pointed at the pine green figure and asked, "Dad, is that her?"
The Huo family master immediately recognized the pine green figure, "Hua Fushu!"
The shade of pine green was Hua Fushu. Hearing the familiar yet somewhat unpleasant voice, she shuddered and looked back. It was indeed the head of the Huo family, her sworn brother and friend regardless of age difference.
Isn't he dancing?
"Brother Huo?" Hua Fushu recovered and immediately put on a smile as bright as a spring flower. "Brother Huo, why are you here? I was just missing you, and here you are."
The Huo family head smiled sinisterly, "I miss you too, and I really want to beat you up."
Hearing this, Hua Fushu suddenly felt something was wrong. She was afraid that Brother Huo was here to settle accounts with her. She added a bit of flattery to her smile, "Brother Huo, you really know how to joke."
The Huo family master was extremely serious, "I'm not joking."
Hua Fushu's face darkened and her smile disappeared instantly. Could it be that this old guy really wanted to beat her in public?
How can that be? It's so embarrassing.
Just as she was thinking about how to deal with the Huo family master, Yu Chisu hurried over, "Hua'er, my brother's condition has relapsed again, come here quickly!"
"What!"
Hua Fushu ran away so fast that even the head of the Huo family didn't see him clearly before he disappeared.
The Huo family head yelled, "Hua Fushu, stop!"
Huo Dalang said, "Dad, saving people is the most important thing."
The head of the Huo family grabbed Huo Dalang's hand and said, "Let's go and take a look."
The father and son chased after him, but could not see Hua Fushu, so they began to use their medical skills to treat the patient and feed him medicine.
Hua Fushu was giving acupuncture to a seriously ill and unconscious teenager. After the injection, the teenager's body showed no reaction, his pulse was barely detectable.
Looking at the boy's pale and tender face, Hua Fushu almost collapsed.
"Little brother, don't sleep! Sister begs you, don't sleep, don't sleep."
"You must hold on. You still have your father and mother."
After half an hour, Hua Fushu touched the boy's wrist, but his pulse was no longer detectable.
She checked the boy's breath, and the weak breath had disappeared. The boy's body gradually became cold. Hua Fushu knew that the boy was gone.
In the end, she couldn't save the boy and could only watch him die in front of her.
"Yong'er! Yong'er! Yong'er..."
The boy's mother threw herself beside the bed and cried bitterly, calling out the boy's name over and over again.
The woman suddenly turned around and stared at Hua Fushu fiercely, "It's you! It's you who killed my Yong'er!"
"Didn't Doctor Li say that you are a very skilled doctor? Why didn't you save my son? Why didn't you save him?"
"If you can't save him, why don't you let Doctor Li come and save him? Doctor Li's medical skills are better than yours, and he will definitely be able to save my child!"
"You killed my son! Give me back my son!"
The woman screamed heart-wrenchingly and pushed Hua Fushu again and again.
Nan Xing quickly pulled the woman away and protected Hua Fushu behind him, "Enough! My young master has done his best. Your son's illness has been recurring. Everyone has witnessed how the young master treated your son. For the sake of your grief over the loss of your son, I will not hold it against you. If you hit my young master again, don't blame me for being rude."
"Young Master, let's go." Nanxing took Hua Fushu away.
Nan Xing said, "Young Master, ignore that woman."
Hua Fushu gently pushed Nanxing away and said, "Go and do your thing. Let me stay for a while."
Nan Xing said worriedly: "Young Master."
Hua Fushu said angrily: "I told you to leave me alone!"
"Young Master..."
Nan Xing wanted to say something but stopped himself. Seeing Hua Fushu's expression made him feel uncomfortable, he had no choice but to leave and go find the head of the Huo family.
Hua Fushu leaned against the wall, her body gradually going limp as if she was powerless. Her originally clear and bright almond-shaped eyes became dim. She felt very uncomfortable, as if her heart weighed a thousand pounds.
She was wondering, if her medical skills were better, could she save the boy?
She was still thinking, if she had invited Doctor Liu or Doctor Li over at that time, maybe the young man could have survived?
She now truly understood the feeling: the patient is right in front of her, but she can't save him.
"Girl, cry if you want to. Big brother can lend you his shoulder." The head of the Huo family walked to the side of Hua Fushu without him noticing. "Cry, big brother won't laugh at you."
Hua Fushu turned to look at the Huo family master and quickly wiped away the tears that overflowed from his eyes. "I didn't cry."
The Huo family master looked at her red eyes and said, "You said you didn't cry, but your eyes are red."
