: Xiao Ping'er's Disaster

Summer is very hot, which is the easiest time to make people sleepy. Even though the Fuyuan is still green and there is a pool of clear water, it does not affect people's desire to sleep. The sound of cicadas can be heard from the treetops, one after another, as if they are all saying that they are sleepy. Aunt Lan is taking a nap in the house, and Father Lan is squinting his eyes in the rocking chair.

In the midst of silence, the gate of Fuyuan was suddenly slammed loudly by someone.

Old Man Lan suddenly opened his eyes and frowned, wondering who was knocking on the door so loudly. He had never heard such a loud knock on the door since he came to Fuyuan.

"Open the door quickly! Please open the door! I am Xiao Dalu! Please open the door, I am here to beg for help!"

Before Old Man Lan could ask a question, a young man's loud shout was heard outside the door. Old Man Lan raised his eyebrows and heard the word "help". He thought it was a big deal, so he quickly opened the door.

Standing outside the door was Xiao Dalu. It was such a hot day, his face was covered with sweat, his neck was sweaty, and even his collar was stained with sweat. He was breathing heavily, as if he had just run in. When he saw the door open, he ran in.

"Is Fourth Sister Shen at home? I'm going to ask her for help! My sister is injured!"

Xiao Dalu didn't go in. He looked at Old Man Lan with anxiety in his eyes. If Old Man Lan said that the person was not there, he would turn around and look for him immediately.

Father Lan said, "Yes, I'll take you in."

Xiao Dalu ran inside immediately after hearing this, and Old Man Lan frowned and followed behind him. Xiao Dalu was in a hurry, so he didn't notice that although Old Man Lan seemed to be quite old, he was able to keep up with his pace and was not left behind by him at all. When they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he even went in to inform them one step earlier than him.

Su Zhi was teaching Xiao Ri and the others to read, and Shen Zian was sitting beside them to accompany them. They were sitting under the porch because it was cool there. They were a little surprised to see Xiao Dalu rushing in so hastily, because they had not seen the Xiao family much since that incident. After all, it was not glorious to have such an incident, and the Xiao family did not want to appear in Hebian Village again, so as to avoid being pointed at by others.

Now that Xiao Dalu came here in such a hurry, there must be something important. After hearing what Xiao Dalu said, Su Zhi immediately asked Shen Zian to get a car in the morning, as they were going to the town.

It turned out that Xiao Ping'er was very traumatized by the incident and stayed at home for many days. Finally, in order not to worry her family, she survived. Although she was quieter than before, she was finally normal. In order to cheer her up, her family took her to the county town to play, but she ran into trouble.

Although the prefecture where their county is located was greatly affected by the drought this time, it was not so serious that there were deaths everywhere. Especially in Hebian Village and its surrounding villages, because of the Daqing Mountain and the dry pond of Su Zhi's family, the situation can be said to be much better. There was no starvation at all. In fact, in some places next to them, some people had already starved to death, and refugees were also drifting everywhere. It was really a disaster scene.

The disaster victims from these places fled to the county town, but due to some reasons, serious accidents occurred. Many shops in the county town were smashed and even the homes of civilians were looted.

The county government arrested a number of disaster victims and finally managed to stabilize the situation.

In this incident, countless people were injured.

Xiao Ping'er is one of them.

"My sister was knocked down by someone and stepped on by many people. The best doctors in the city said that she couldn't be saved and she is still hanging on! Fourth Sister Shen, you are so capable, please save my sister! Her life is too hard! She can't die like this! Please save her! I kneel down to you!"

Xiao Dalu was crying with tears and snot streaming down his face. As he spoke, he knelt down in front of Su Zhi and burst into tears.

"It was me who said to let my sister go to the city to play! It was me who failed to protect her. If she died, I would have no face to live! Fourth Sister Shen, my sister's life is too hard, please save her!"

"Hurry up and get up! You are a grown man, why do you kneel down every now and then?!"

Su Zhi is a modern person, she can't stand others kneeling down for no reason, especially to her, so when she saw Xiao Dalu kneeling down, she quickly pulled him away. When she heard about Xiao Ping'er's misfortune, she was also very anxious, thinking how could Xiao Ping'er, such a quiet girl, be so unlucky?

Shen Zian went over to help Su Zhi pull Xiao Dalu up. He was very strong and pulling Xiao Dalu up was like pulling a cat.

Su Zhi asked Shen Zian to harness the ox cart. She had to go to the county town at least once, as this was a matter of life and death.

Shen Zian turned around and went to harness the ox cart.

"Wait here while I get something. Stop crying."

Su Zhi finished talking to Xiao Dalu, then turned around and went into her room, and took out a small box. It was a medicine box that she specially made. Ever since she decided to treat patients to make a name for herself, and ever since she felt that she and Doctor Huang had learned almost all the basics of medical skills, and at least could deceive people on the surface, she made this medicine box, thinking that it might come in handy in the future. Even if it doesn't, it can be used as a family medicine box. But she didn't expect that she would actually use it now.

In Su Zhi's medical box, there are silver needles for acupuncture, potions, powders, ointments, and pills that she made. Some of them are added with lotus pollen, some are just spring water with water, and some are ordinary medicines. As long as a doctor needs something, she has it all, and even has paper and charcoal pencils.

When Xiao Dalu saw Su Zhi coming out with the medical box, he felt relieved. However, thinking that his sister was still in the county town and her life or death was uncertain, he wanted to carry Su Zhi on his back and take her away.

Su Zhi asked Xiao Ri and the others to stay at home obediently and let Old Man Lan watch them. Then she got on the morning bus under their gaze. Shen Zian cracked the whip, the cow mooed, and left Fuyuan.

Many people in Hebian Village saw Xiao Dalu running to Hebian Village and Fuyuan like a hot ass, and then soon Shen Zian and his wife took him away in a bullock cart. Because the matter was too urgent, when others asked them where they were going, they were vague and didn't say, which made people more suspicious. Because of Xiao Ping'er's previous relationship with the Shen family, this matter spread all over Hebian Village in a short time, and everyone in the Shen family's old house heard about it.

Shen Youfu frowned and cursed, "These two people don't know the difference between right and wrong! Is the Xiao family still a family we can associate with? Aren't they afraid of ruining their reputation? I'm really pissed off! Boss, call them over when they come back!"

Shen Youfu actually wanted to ask someone to call Shen Zian and his friends back, but when he thought about the kindness the Xiao family had shown them, and that it was their family that was wrong to cancel the engagement, he still didn't ask anyone to call Shen Zian and his friends back, even though he felt ashamed. He just thought that if Shen Zian and his friends didn't go with him, he wouldn't have to make things difficult for them.

"Hey, even though he's married and seems to be capable, he's still young. He needs you, as his father, to teach him more."

Shen Zhang said to Shen Youfu that she was trying to put some pressure on Shen Zian and his wife.

Shen Youfu also thought that was the case and said, "Does he think I can stop controlling him after he gets married? He's dreaming. I'm his father. Even if we split up, I still have to control him! If he has the guts, he should not acknowledge me as his father. By then, even if he has ten holy beasts, his reputation will be ruined!"

Shen Zhang smiled inwardly after hearing this, thinking that Shen Zian was getting richer and richer. Not only did he have good connections with wealthy families like the Qian and Zhang families, but even the county magistrate and the prefect valued them. These connections were too important. It would be great if her son Ziju had them. She was afraid that Shen Zian would have these connections but not seek benefits for Shen Ziju, so she first provoked Shen Youfu here, thinking that with Shen Youfu who loved Shen Ziju around, no matter how much money and connections Shen Zian had, he would have to give them to Shen Ziju!

Shen Zigui stood aside and listened, with his head down, but he felt a little awkward in his heart, thinking that his fourth brother was very good to the family, so why did his father dislike him so much? Why did he feel uncomfortable listening to those words his mother said just now, as if his father said those impolite words to his fourth brother after his mother said those words?

Shen Zigui returned to the house and looked at her man, thinking that her man was too honest.

"My mother is doing this for my fifth brother's own good."

Wang only said this one sentence. She didn't know how to say anything to her parents-in-law. After all, her mother-in-law was doing it for the good of her own son, and her father-in-law was doing it to bring honor to the family for her fifth brother. As the son and daughter-in-law, they couldn't say anything.

"If you feel uncomfortable, just be nicer to my fourth brother and his family in the future. But don't make my parents unhappy."

Wang thought that she would have to rely on Shen Ziju in the future, so she didn't want to make her man upset because of Shen Zi'an.

Shen Zifu nodded, thinking that he should be better to his fourth brother in the future.

Let's not talk about the Shen family, just Shen Zian. He hurriedly drove the ox cart towards the county town. He planned to go to the town first and change to a horse cart to continue. Although the cow at home was well-fed and had good running speed, a cow was still a cow and could not compare to a horse. When they arrived in the town, they () found a horse cart rental company [Wangshu Pavilion], stored the ox cart there, and drove the horse cart towards the county town.

With a horse-drawn carriage, the journey was much faster and we soon arrived at the county town.

There are now more soldiers standing in front of the county gate than usual. Everyone entering is checked. Anyone who is not properly dressed and looks like a refugee will not be allowed in. If anyone causes trouble, they will be arrested directly.

Shen Zian and his companions rushed in the carriage, so it was naturally easy for them to get in.

In addition to that visit to the dyeing workshop, Su Zhi has come here several more times in recent days, and has gotten to know the county town pretty well. At that time, she thought it was very peaceful here, but now she finds it is really different from the last time she came. There are still a lot of people on the street, but many of them have injuries, some have cuts on their faces, some are being supported by others, and there are still scattered things in many places that have not been cleaned up, and there are even bloodstains on the ground that have not been covered, and someone is covering those bloodstains with soil. Such new soil can be seen here and there on the street, and you can imagine that there are bloodstains underneath.

“It seems that the situation was very serious at that time.”

Su Zhi spoke softly.

Xiao Dalu nodded, and said angrily and sadly: "I don't know how the chaos started at that time. There were people everywhere, and my sister was pushed down by those people. How could they step on her!"

Su Zhi comforted Xiao Dalu. In fact, Su Zhi often heard about this kind of situation in modern times. Her company even conducted drills for earthquakes and fires, just in case something like this really happened. Instead of dying in the disaster, they were trampled to death. This is exactly what Xiao Ping'er and the others are facing now.

Su Zhi was familiar with the clinic where Xiao Ping'er worked, because she had come to this clinic when she first came to sell ginseng. The clinic was called Renjitang, and the owner's surname was Li, a shrewd yet honest man.

Before entering the clinic, Su Zhi saw the injured. There were many people outside the clinic, all crying and wailing, and some young men were bandaging their wounds. Walking inside, she found that it was also crowded with people, even the shopkeeper Li was applying medicine and bandaging people.

"Shopkeeper Li, what happened to my sister now?"

Xiao Dalu hurriedly ran to Shopkeeper Li and asked. It was Shopkeeper Li who told him that his sister could not be saved at that time. He begged Shopkeeper Li to let his sister wait here while he went to ask for help. He was afraid that Shopkeeper Li would kick Xiao Ping'er out of the clinic during this period. After all, there were too many injured people and there was not enough space.

When Shopkeeper Li saw Xiao Dalu coming back, he said, "Your sister is still in there. I don't know how she is doing now, but I didn't hear any sound from her, so she should be fine. There are other doctors there, so you can go."

When Xiao Dalu heard that his sister was still there and everything was fine, he nodded happily and turned around to call Su Zhi.

Shopkeeper Li was stunned when he saw Shen Zian and Su Zhi. He felt that Shen Zian looked familiar. After thinking carefully, he remembered that this was the young man who sold him ginseng. The ginseng was the oldest and best quality ginseng he had ever received in his life. So he remembered the ginseng seller and had thought that it would be nice if this person came to sell ginseng again. He remembered that the young man was accompanied by his wife, a woman with a cloth on her head. But today, the woman was not beside him, but a pretty woman. Was this his wife?

"It's Brother Shen Si. Nice to see you again. Who is this?"

Shopkeeper Li glanced at Su Zhi, and when he heard Shen Zian answer that this was his wife, he thought to himself, so this is what this young lady looks like.

"Manager Li, I'm here to treat someone's injuries. I'll go ahead."

Su Zhi didn't have time to chat with others. She bowed and went into the back hall with Xiao Dalu. She knew that there was a place in the back specifically for treating patients.

Shopkeeper Li watched Su Zhi disappear in a flash, blinked, and asked Shen Zian: "Can your wife heal injuries?"

At that time, there were very few female doctors. It cannot be said that there were none, but they were very few. Most of them learned medical skills and treated the women of wealthy families. The highest level was the female doctors recognized by the government. Some of them could even enter the palace. Although their status was not as high as those imperial physicians, they were also highly respected.

Shopkeeper Li thought that Su Zhi, a country woman, could possibly know medicine? If she knew medicine, why would she marry a country bumpkin? Medical women usually marry well.

Shen Zian said: "My wife is a very good doctor."

Shen Zian was no longer modest. He thought Su Zhi's medical skills were very good. Before, Su Zhi might have only had a few prescriptions, but after that, Su Zhi and Doctor Huang learned medical skills, Shen Zian felt that his wife was already very amazing. In his opinion, his wife was a genius. She could learn the best in anything, including medicine.

Shopkeeper Li raised his eyebrows and said, "That young man's sister is beyond help. All the doctors here have examined her. I think your young lady is powerless to help either."

Shen Zian said: "I haven't seen it yet, but maybe there will be a turnaround."

Shopkeeper Li felt that Shen Si had too much confidence in his wife. Even if they could collect thousand-year-old ginseng, it didn't mean they had the medical skills to bring the dead back to life. Besides, how could a person with real medical skills be willing to sell such good ginseng?

Su Zhi and Xiao Dalu entered the back room. There were several people in the room, some lying or sitting, all of them were seriously injured. Some were groaning, and some of the people who were not injured and taking care of them were crying. The atmosphere was very heavy. Xiao Ping'er was lying in a corner, next to her were Xiao's parents, Aunt Xiao was crying, and Uncle Xiao was in a daze, his eyes were red.

"Dad, Mom, I brought Fourth Sister Shen here!"

Xiao Dalu passed by a crowded place and reported the good news.

Uncle Xiao and Aunt Xiao looked up at the same time, with some surprise on their faces, because they had all seen Su Zhi's medical skills.

"Su Zhi! You must save Ping'er. If you save her, I will work like a slave for you! We will find you all the money you want!"

Aunt Xiao cried and said to Su Zhi, holding her hand and not letting go.

Uncle Xiao pulled her aside and said, "Please let me take a look at Ping'er first. I beg you, niece-in-law! Our Ping'er has suffered so much. Please do your best, okay? It's all her fate."

"I'll try my best."

Su Zhi sighed in her heart, thinking that Xiao Ping'er was so unlucky, having such good parents and brothers, but encountering a bad marriage, even going out to play would cause her to encounter unexpected disasters. She bent down and hurt herself, and now she knew how to take pulses and treat external injuries, but she didn't know how many ribs were broken inside, so she turned around and asked the doctor next to her about Xiao Ping'er's condition, thinking that it was okay to have a broken bone, as long as she took some of her medicine, it would be fine, but she didn't want the bone to grow crooked.

The doctor standing by knew that the person coming from Xiao Dalu was a young lady, so he felt discouraged. When he heard the young lady asking him about Xiao Ping'er's injury, he became even more discouraged.
