Chapter 59 Good People Must Be Rewarded
Unfortunately, no matter how Xiaohui tried to persuade her to stay, her mother's face, which had been slightly rosy after she woke up, quickly faded after she finished speaking.
When the guards sent by Wen Ling called for a doctor, Xiaohui's mother had fallen into a coma.
The doctor felt Xiaohui's mother's pulse and shook his head: "It's too late. There is no cure. It should have been a last gasp."
Sure enough, not long after the doctor finished speaking, the hand she had been holding tightly around Xiaohui's fell down limply, and she was completely lifeless.
Xiaohui burst into heart-wrenching cries and kept shaking her mother and crying.
Xiao Fa turned his head away, wiped his eyes, and advised: "Please accept my condolences."
Wen Ling looked at the soul floating out of the mother's body. She floated in the air, looking at Xiaohui who was crying bitterly. Her expression was sad and she was full of worry.
Wen Ling also advised: "Don't cry, be strong, otherwise if you do this, your mother will not be able to leave with peace of mind, and will wander around the world after death and cannot rest in peace.
The person is gone, and the living should live on with strength. As long as they survive, everything will turn around. ”
Xiaohui was immersed in sadness and couldn't listen to what anyone said.
She didn't take Wen Ling's words that everything would turn out well to heart.
If things will turn around as long as people are alive, then why did her mother hold on until the end but still not wait for her father?
Why are their lives getting worse and worse?
Since she couldn't listen, Wen Ling stopped talking and just asked, "Your brother is still unconscious, so you don't care about him?"
Xiaohui then remembered that she had a sick and unconscious brother next to her.
She wiped her tears and begged, "Please ask the doctor to save my brother. Xiaohui will repay you by working like a cow or a horse for the rest of her life!"
Wen Ling first asked the doctor, and after confirming that Xiaohui's mother did not have an infectious disease, she let the doctor see Xiaohui's younger brother Xiaocong.
If it is a contagious virus, there is a different way to deal with it.
The doctor was examining Xiao Cong and was shocked when he touched the child's forehead. It was so hot!
The doctor said: "With such a high fever, if it continues, he will have convulsions. Even if he is saved, he will probably be a fool!"
He wanted to say that the illness had been delayed for too long, but when he thought about the fact that this was a slum and most of the people here could not afford medical treatment, what was the difference between saying this and saying "why not eat meat porridge?"
He quickly asked the medicine boy who came with him to get some medicine and boil it. After feeding Xiao Cong some antipyretic medicine, he performed acupuncture on his whole body.
Only after he saw the child start to sweat did he write the following prescription: "Sweating means the fever is starting to subside. This cold and high fever caused by a weak body will be cured in six or seven days if you follow this prescription."
"How much...how much silver?" Xiaohui was relieved to see her brother's fever subsided, but she became nervous again when she thought of the silver.
The doctor said quickly, "The consultation fee is half a penny, the consultation fee is half a penny, and the prescription and acupuncture fee is five taels of silver."
He gave the lowest price out of pity for the girl.
Xiaohui was at a loss as to what to do. Seeing a doctor was indeed much more expensive than she had imagined. It was a price she couldn't even afford even if she sold herself.
Wen Ling didn't say anything and just asked Xiaofa to pay the money.
Seeing this, Xiao Hui said quickly: "The remaining money can be deducted from my monthly salary. I will work hard when I arrive at your house!"
Wen Ling nodded and let Xiaohui go with Xiaofa. If she was worried about Xiaocong, she could take him with her. Anyway, he could just live where she lived and not cause any other problems.
Xiaohui was so grateful that she wanted to kneel down and kowtow. She knew very well that she had met a good person!
This lady did so much, it was not just to hire her to work, it was clearly just to help her.
She met a kind person!
Wen Ling nodded to her: "No need to thank me too much, I also have my own purpose."
First of all, they did meet each other, and secondly, the siblings might be the descendants of the mighty general.
In the mighty general's mansion, there is the Chaori Black Iron Silver Spear that they want.
They also wanted this silver gun.
Since there is use, there is no need to make others feel grateful to us.
Wen Ling stopped the doctor who was packing up and preparing to leave and asked, "Doctor, I would like to ask, how much money would it cost to have you provide free medical treatment for a day?"
Doctor Xu asked in surprise, "Madam, do you want me to provide you with a free consultation? Where?"
Wen Ling: "I'll provide free medical consultation outside the slums. I'll pay for all the medicines you prescribe. You can name a price."
Doctor Xu was even more surprised. In a place like the slum, even noble people like them would find it unlucky to pass by. Yet, she actually wanted to ask him for free medical treatment?
Although he was surprised, Doctor Xu was also a kind person. He said, "My medical skills are ordinary, not an expert, so I can only treat common diseases. However, there are many people in this slum, and a day of free consultation requires a lot of energy. So I will charge 10 taels a day, and the medicine fee will be calculated separately. Is that okay?"
This is a very fair price. After all, he sees more than ten patients a day, and each patient costs at least one or two taels of silver.
Wen Ling readily agreed: "Okay, no problem. By the way, I saw that your conjugal palace is a little dark. Pay attention to your wife's health recently, especially her heart and lungs. There may be problems. If you prevent and discover them in time, you can avoid this disaster."
Good people should be rewarded for what they have done. Otherwise, who would be willing to be a good person?
Wouldn’t the world be getting darker and darker?
Doctor Xu was a little confused by the reminder. He was a doctor. Could it be that he couldn't discover in time that his wife was in poor health?
But then I thought, it seemed that he was usually busy in the hospital, and his wife was taking care of things at home, and they would meet in the evening, have dinner, and then go to sleep.
He really hadn't cared about his wife's health for a long time...
After Doctor Xu returned home, he was still worried, so he took his wife's pulse and examined her body.
You don't know until you check, and you'll be shocked when you do.
He discovered that his wife's heart was indeed in poor condition and seemed to be getting blocked.
Fortunately, it was discovered early, and acupuncture and medication were enough to prevent the disease from getting worse.
If you don’t find it in time and wait until the day of the outbreak, it will be too late!
Doctor Xu was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He was suddenly glad that he had agreed to the three-day free medical consultation in the troubled slums.
Otherwise, the lady would never have reminded him.
This is truly the fastest time when good deeds were rewarded!
It was definitely not enough for Doctor Xu alone to treat the entire slum, so Wen Ling invited three more doctors.
Not every doctor is willing to provide free medical services in the slums, either because they find it troublesome or because they would raise the price too high.
However, Wen Ling will give appropriate and useful reminders to every doctor who is willing to come.
After organizing the free medical consultation, Wen Ling had people set up a porridge stall at the entrance of the slum to distribute porridge.
Every three days, porridge is distributed for two hours in the morning, with one bowl per person.
In this way, we can help those who really need help. A bowl of porridge can keep a person alive.
But they won't live a good life. They still have to find work to do and earn money to fill their stomachs, so as not to breed and indulge laziness.
Wen Ling doesn't plan to do this for just a day or two, he plans to make it a long-term thing.
The next morning, when the free clinic and soup kitchen tents were opened at the same time, the entire slum was alarmed.
Xiaoliu is a beggar who grew up in a slum. He has no father or mother and was picked up and raised by an old beggar.
But last month, the old beggar never woke up after he fell asleep. The twelve-year-old was robbed of all his belongings by the neighbors who were watching him.
After being hungry and begging on and off for a month, he was so hungry the day before yesterday that he stole a meat bun from outside and broke his leg.
He has been lying at home with his broken leg for three days.
He just drank the last sip of water and ate the last bite of black flour steamed bun.
He thought he might die.
Unexpectedly, a friend who used to beg with him came outside. His name was Buttocks.
Butt Egg rushed over and said, "Xiao Liu, hurry up, get up quickly, there are tents for free clinics and soup outside, you can be saved!"
