There are many privately built shanties here. Due to the population explosion and the large number of educated youth returning to the city in recent years, many families have insufficient housing.
All the usable areas on this street are used to build houses.
Gu Beixiao had one arm hanging and had to hold Bai Susu's arm to prevent her from tripping accidentally.
The road was bumpy and there were a few children playing around from time to time.
If Gu Beixiao hadn't been holding Bai Susu, she would have been easily bumped into.
"Be careful, there are too many people here and the road is not good!"
Gu Beixiao reminded him, and Bai Susu asked him why he came here.
"One of my comrades-in-arms lived here. He died, leaving behind two children and an old mother. I just came to take a look!"
Bai Susu has no problem, so why is she here now? Maybe something happened.
The two men walked to the gate of a small courtyard. Before they went in, they could hear the hustle and bustle inside. It seemed that many people lived there.
Bai Susu and Gu Beixiao walked in. Gu Beixiao went straight to a room, so Bai Susu had to follow him carrying her things.
Gu Beixiao was injured, and he was about to take her with him. The canned fruits and other things he bought were carried by Bai Susu.
"Auntie, Little Red Grass!"
Gu Beixiao shouted towards the house.
Two children rushed out of the house.
There are two girls.
“Uncle Gu!”
The two children were not very old. When they saw it was Gu Beixiao, they were very excited and surrounded Gu Beixiao and called for help.
Gu Beixiao raised his hand and rubbed the tops of the two children's heads.
"Where's your grandmother?"
Gu Beixiao did not see the old man and looked at the two children beside him in confusion.
When the two children heard Gu Beixiao's question, they lowered their heads uncomfortably.
"Grandma is sick, she won't let us go to see Uncle Gu!"
Gu Beixiao hurried into the house.
Bai Susu also followed him in. If he was sick, she could still help.
The house is very clean, unlike the messy yard. Although there are a lot of things in the house, they can be seen to be arranged neatly.
Bai Susu looked at the two children who entered the room with Gu Beixiao. Although their clothes had many patches, they were very clean, with sleeves that were whitish from washing and neatly patched.
It can be seen that the grandmother of the two children is an old lady who knows how to live very well.
Gu Beixiao called Bai Susu as soon as he entered the room.
Bai Susu placed the gifts she brought on the table outside and then went into the inner room.
I saw a small bed in the inner room. An old man was lying on it, unconscious.
Bai Susu touched the old man's forehead and checked the condition of his pupils before starting to take his pulse.
The two children were very nervous and didn't know what Bai Susu was doing, but they believed Gu Beixiao.
Gu Beixiao didn't dare to disturb Bai Susu, but comforted the two children: "This is Aunt Bai, Uncle Gu's fiancée. She is a doctor, a very good doctor!"
The two children finally reacted and looked at Bai Susu excitedly.
It seems that grandma will be able to recover as long as Bai Susu treats her.
Bai Susu glanced at Gu Beixiao and had no idea why he introduced her like that.
Fortunately, the old man was just malnourished and fell ill due to long-term fatigue.
Bai Susu first gave the old lady acupuncture to reduce her high fever, and then performed scraping therapy on her to relieve the heat. After all these operations, the old lady finally woke up.
The two children also believed what Gu Beixiao said. Bai Susu was really amazing.
"Xiaobei?"
The old lady called out, and Gu Beixiao stepped forward: "Auntie, how are you?"
The old man coughed twice: "It's okay!"
Gu Beixiao didn't say much, because he knew the old man's character and he probably didn't want him to worry.
Bai Susu wrote a prescription, but considering the old lady's condition, she could only tell Gu Beixiao: "Is there a pharmacy nearby? I'll go get her some medicine!"
Before Gu Beixiao could say anything, Xiaohong took Bai Susu's hand and said, "Aunt Bai, I know where there is a medicine store!"
Bai Susu asked Gu Beixiao to talk to the old man, and she asked Xiaohong to take her to get the medicine.
Even though the old lady had no strength left, she knew that Bai Susu was treating her. She reached out to grab the handkerchief under the pillow, which contained some money.
But Gu Beixiao said: "Aunt, no need!"
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
The old man wanted to give more, but Bai Susu and Xiaohong had already walked out.
"Is this your partner?"
The old lady choked up a little. Ever since her son died, her daughter-in-law remarried and left two children to her. For the sake of her two granddaughters, she had to grit her teeth and hold on. She never thought that she was too old and her body couldn't take it anymore.
Gu Beixiao nodded: "What do you think, aunt?"
The old man smiled: "Very good, very good!"
In the old man's eyes, Bai Susu is well-behaved and capable, and is worthy of Gu Beixiao.
Gu Beixiao chatted with the old man for a while, and then Bai Susu and Xiaohong came back. They not only had medicine in their hands, but also some food.
Bai Susu wanted to boil medicine, but Xiaohong didn't let her go to the kitchen, and instead ran out with the medicine and the medicine pot.
"I'll go watch it, you guys continue chatting!"
Bai Susu said hello and chased Xiaohong out.
Only when she arrived at the kitchen did she understand why Xiaohong didn't let her come over.
This is a shared kitchen in a large compound. The space available to each family is limited. Xiaohong pulled out a stove from the corner, borrowed a coal ball from the aunt next door, lit the stove, and then poured water into the medicine pot and began to brew the medicine.
Bai Susu looked at the surrounding environment and couldn't help but sigh.
In this environment, life is indeed difficult.
It’s not as good as living in the countryside. At least life won’t be so depressing.
"Aunt Bai, please go out. I'll just watch. It's too hot in here!"
Xiaohong was afraid that Bai Susu couldn't bear it, so she kindly reminded her.
Bai Susu took out the vegetables she bought from the store: "It's okay!"
Although Xiaohong can cook porridge and cook, she doesn't know how to cook the meat that Bai Susu bought, so she can only watch.
However, the aunt next to her was talking to Bai Susu happily. When she learned that Bai Susu was a doctor and had treated Xiaohong's grandmother, the aunt became excited.
Everyone knew about Xiaohong's grandmother's condition, and they all thought that it would happen in the next two days. They even discussed whether to go and help with the funeral. But they never expected that Bai Susu said that the person was fine.
This medical skill must be good.
"Comrade Bai, is your medical fee expensive?"
Bai Susu was puzzled, but after taking a look at her aunt's expression, she understood.
"It's free, but if I prescribe medicine, you still have to go to the pharmacy to get it!"
This is natural, and the auntie naturally understands it.
"Then can you help me take a look? Don't worry, if you help me take a good look, I will definitely take care of Xiaohong's family affairs in the future!"
I have to travel recently, so it is difficult to update regularly. I will try to update one chapter regularly in the early morning. The second chapter can only be written when I am on the road, so it will be irregular! (End of this chapter)
