Chapter 47 Rescue
After saying that, Doctor Liao fled as if he were running away. He was afraid that if he didn't leave now, he wouldn't be able to leave. If the young master died, it would be because he was the one who killed him!
"Oh! Doctor Liao, Doctor Liao!" Manager He never expected that the doctor hired by the big boss at great expense would be so useless, running away without even treating him!
However, he understood why Doctor Liao had run away; the young master's condition was simply too dire. Even though he wasn't a doctor, he could tell the young master was going to die.
No wonder I heard that Lady Hou hadn't even celebrated the New Year yet, and that she climbed the mountain on her knees every day, kowtowing with each step, praying to the Bodhisattva for her youngest son's protection.
This is truly beyond human control...
Manager He chased after them.
The young apprentice also quickly slipped away with his master, and Steward He couldn't even catch a glimpse of his clothes.
Seeing the three of them rush out, the second boss had a bad feeling. When Gu Jiao got up and was about to go inside, he suddenly stopped her: "I suddenly remembered that I have something to do at Huichuntang."
Gu Jiao: "Oh, then you can go back and handle it."
Second boss: "Come back with me."
The second master wanted Gu Jiao to treat the young master's illness, but that was on the premise that Gu Jiao could cure the other party. However, the appearance of Manager He and the other two made him waver.
Manager He's brother was behind him, and he knew his brother's abilities well. The doctor he invited must have been a local miracle doctor. The fact that the doctor left as soon as he entered could only mean that the young master was indeed beyond cure.
There may be countless medical techniques for treating illnesses, but only one is needed to determine death.
He couldn't let Gu Jiao down.
If Gu Jiao goes in now, the young master might die right in front of her, and then she will never be able to escape unscathed.
Gu Jiao certainly understood what he meant.
She was a doctor in her past life, but that was just a cover for her identity. She wasn't a good person at heart, and she wouldn't gamble with her own life.
“Okay, let’s go.” Gu Jiao nodded.
Just as Gu Jiao turned around, her heart suddenly clenched.
"Young Master—" came the maid's startled cry from the inner room.
The young master began to convulse on the bed.
Gu Jiao suddenly felt unwell.
She was absolutely certain she wasn't sick, so this feeling of panic came out of nowhere.
"Am I really that ethical as a doctor? Would I feel so guilty and heartbroken if I just left a patient unattended?"
He was in pain, and she was in pain too.
That's strange.
Gu Jiao eventually went inside.
The manor has an imperial physician who is currently preparing medicine for the young master at the pharmacy. He is not in the young master's room, so the servants hurriedly went to invite him.
In the midst of the chaos, no one cared whether Gu Jiao had entered the house.
When Gu Jiao arrived at the bedside, his heart had stopped beating.
Gu Jiao's expression turned serious. Without saying a word, she stepped onto the bed, knelt beside the young master, pressed her hands against his chest, and began to perform emergency CPR on him.
"Gu Gu..." The second master was stunned by what he saw as soon as he entered the room. What was this girl doing to the young master?
Gu Jiao didn't care about the first-aid kit being exposed at this moment, and said seriously, "Guard the door! Don't let anyone in!"
"...Okay!" The second boss was still clueless, but he closed the door as quickly as possible.
The old doctor stayed in the room to see if there was anything he could do to help.
Gu Jiao pressed the buttons for a while, but there was no response: "Bring out my first-aid kit! Light the oil lamp and candles! Light them all!"
The old doctor hurriedly took the small, tattered box out of his basket, only to find that he couldn't open it.
Gu Jiao opened the first-aid kit herself, while he went to light the oil lamp and candles.
Gu Jiao injected a vial of adrenaline into the young master's vein.
The old doctor was utterly dumbfounded. What strange thing was this girl sticking into the young master's meridians?
The first injection of adrenaline did not produce the desired effect.
Just then, the steward and maids of the Marquis's mansion arrived with the imperial physician. Remembering Gu Jiao's instructions, the second master strode forward and blocked their path.
"Who are you?" the head maid asked irritably.
The servant who brought Gu Jiao and the other two over just now has already left. Only Yu Ya'er's maid recognized him. Yu Ya'er was the servant who brought Manager He over.
Yu Ya'er pointed at him and said, "I recognize him! He's the one who impersonated Huichuntang from the capital!"
The second boss said sternly, "What do you mean by impersonating? We are Huichuntang! Just not the one in the capital!"
Yu Ya'er complained, "Look, Granny! He admitted it!"
The second boss was completely confused. "No, miss, is that what I meant?"
Although the head maid did not misunderstand the second master's meaning, she did not think much of the clinics outside the capital. The reason they were allowed to come in was because the Lady of the Marquis was desperate and had no other choice but to try anything.
"What do you mean by blocking this place?" she asked coldly.
The second master bolstered his courage and said, "Our doctors at Huichuntang are inside trying to save your young master. If you don't want anything to happen to him, it's best not to go in and disturb them!"
"Granny, they're lying!" a maidservant said.
She saw it all from inside the house; the young master was already dead!
"Are you sure you can save the young master?" The head maid's stern voice hung like a knife over the second master's head.
A cold sweat broke out on the back of the second boss.
What a cunning old woman! She's shifting the blame onto them. If something happens to the young master, it won't be because they failed to take good care of him, but because Huichuntang couldn't provide adequate treatment.
In fact, they had already taken very good care of him, but if the young master died, someone would have to take the blame and bear the wrath of the Marquis and his wife.
Who would want to be themselves?
The second boss's legs were shaking.
Miss Gu, are you sure you can handle this?
no.
I've already used three vials of adrenaline!
The old doctor gradually realized that something was wrong. Even though he didn't know where these strange injections came from, he understood that they must be used to prolong life.
"Miss Gu... give up..."
"I'll try again!" Gu Jiao counted the time and injected the fourth injection into the young master's body.
If this team fails, there's nothing she can do...
The people outside couldn't wait any longer; every minute and second was torture for them.
The second landlord's cold sweat dripped onto the ground.
The head maid's eyes flashed with a sharp light: "Break down the door!"
Two strong and muscular maids stepped forward and shoved the second master aside, raising their feet to kick the door open. Suddenly, the maid named Yuya spoke up: "Granny! Listen!"
The head maid made a gesture, and everyone immediately fell silent.
"...It's so noisy."
It was the young master's voice.
It was very small and very weak.
They hadn't heard the young master's voice for ten days, and they truly thought he was gone, but just now... just now...
"You...you all heard it, didn't you?" The head maid felt so nervous for the first time.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Although it was very faint, they definitely heard it!
