Chapter 218 Luck
The middle-aged man became excited again and cried so hard that he almost died. He was about to suffocate. Lin Qian was afraid that he would faint, so she squeezed him unconscious.
We can't let him go on like this. If he gets any more emotional, the silver needles in his body will be dislocated.
Looking at the middle-aged man's peaceful sleeping face, Lin Qian finally breathed a sigh of relief. Her hands moved faster and faster, and soon all the wounds were sutured.
Then she forced the man to drink a bowl of cold spring water. Lin Qian ignored him and continued to treat the next injured person.
The next one was an old man in his sixties. One of his eyes was pierced by a piece of wood from some unknown source. At this moment, his eye socket was covered in blood and flesh, but he gritted his teeth and didn't even cry out in pain.
"Grandpa is really awesome! What did you do before?" Lin Qian helped the old man remove the sawdust from his eye sockets while diverting his attention.
The old man was tense all over, gritting his teeth to endure the pain. Hearing Lin Qian's words, he laughed and said, "I used to be a soldier. I have been a soldier for more than 20 years. I don't care about this little injury."
Lin Qian praised: "So that's how it is, no wonder you are so patient."
After saying that, just when the old man was about to speak, Lin Qian exerted force and pulled out the largest piece of wood chip, and the old man immediately groaned.
It took a long time for the old man to recover, and Lin Qian had already started applying medicine to him.
"I know the man just now. He is from our village. His name is Ho Tung. He and his wife Pan'er are both pitiful people." The old man glanced at Ho Tung and said.
"Oh? Why is it pitiful?" Lin Qian asked.
The old man's face suddenly twisted. The medicine Lin Qian applied to her was a little painful. He gasped twice before continuing, "He Dong lost both his parents when he was young. He was only twelve years old and had to raise his younger siblings. His younger sister was very pretty when she was fifteen, but of course, she's still not as pretty as you."
Lin Qian laughed when he heard what the old man said. He said mischievously, "Why? Old man, you want to praise me so that I won't hurt you too much, right?"
The old man smiled and continued, "It was because his sister was so beautiful that the county magistrate's nephew took a fancy to her and forcibly took her back to be his concubine. His brother naturally couldn't bear to see his sister being taken away, so he stepped forward to argue, and ended up having his legs broken.
He Dong was working as a laborer in the town at that time and only went home twice a month. When he came back, he saw his brother's legs broken and realized that his sister had been kidnapped.
He immediately went to the county magistrate's house to ask for his sister's release, but his sister's body was thrown in front of him. Alas! She had been tortured beyond recognition.
He Dong originally wanted to fight the county magistrate's family, but was persuaded by the village chief and others, saying that if he died, what would happen to his younger brother?
For the sake of his younger brother, He Dong had no choice but to swallow his anger and take care of his brother while trying every means to avenge his sister.
Half a year later, Ho Tung's younger brother died of a cold. Ho Tung, without further hesitation, decided to go after the county magistrate and his nephew. However, the county magistrate was found guilty of corruption and his entire family was beheaded, including his nephew.
"This can be considered as retribution for evil. He Dong's brothers and sisters can finally rest in peace." Lin Qian said.
Taking advantage of power to bully men and women has always happened since ancient times.
The old man nodded and said, "Yes, then Ho Tung met Pan'er. Pan'er was only seventeen years old at that time. Ho Tung delayed his marriage for his younger brother's wife and was almost thirty years old.
As soon as you hear the name Pan'er, you can tell what kind of family Pan'er was born into. Pan'er has five older sisters and one younger brother, a total of seven siblings.
Her parents were not human beings. In order to raise money for their youngest son to get married, they sold Pan'er to someone else for a ghost marriage.
Pan'er was buried alive in a grave. At this time, He Dong was visiting the grave of his younger brother and sister and happened to hear Pan'er's cry for help.
Feeling a sudden pity, he dug Pan'er out, and the two of them got together. He Dong told others that Pan'er was the wife he bought.
In fact, everyone in our village knows Pan'er's origins, but no one talks about it and everyone pretends to know nothing.
It has been five years since they got married, and we have seen their lives getting better and better.
Not long ago, Pan'er became pregnant, which was good news. However, Pan'er was weak and almost had a miscarriage several times.
Alas, Pan'er has been working since she was a child. Her parents treated her as a punching bag, beating and scolding her at every turn, and not giving her enough food to eat. As a result, she fell ill at a young age.
In order to earn money to support her pregnancy, Ho Tung had to go to the town to work as a handyman, hoping to earn more money to support Pan'er's health. However, not long after Ho Tung went to the town, an earthquake occurred.
Pan'er is alone at home with a seven-month-old belly, oh!
After hearing about He Dong and Pan Er, Lin Qian had only one thought in her mind: their lives were truly miserable.
Lin Qian didn't say anything. After bandaging the old man, she left the tent and found the two soldiers who had just carried He Dong in. She asked them to go to He Dong's house to see if they could dig Pan'er out. Even if it was a corpse, she wanted He Dong to see it again.
After giving the order, Lin Qian went back to the tent to continue rescuing people.
Who knew that at night, the two soldiers really dug Pan'er out, and most importantly, Pan'er was not dead, but still alive.
Lin Qian was very surprised and quickly fed Pan'er a large bowl of cold spring water. Pan'er must have been very thirsty and drank it all in one breath.
Apart from the fact that her face was a little yellow, Pan'er was in good condition otherwise. The fetus was also stable and there was nothing serious wrong with her. She was just severely dehydrated.
Lin Qian arranged Pan'er to sit next to He Dong, who was still in a coma. When Pan'er saw He Dong, she immediately smiled happily.
"How did you survive underground for so long?" Lin Qian asked Pan'er.
Pan Er kept staring at He Dong and said, "He was afraid that I couldn't take care of myself, so he left me a lot of food. When the earthquake happened, I was in the kitchen making breakfast, and it happened to fall into the cellar along with the bread, sweet potatoes and other things."
Therefore, she was able to survive in the dark cellar for nearly a month.
Lin Qian couldn't help but sigh at Pan'er's good luck. She was buried alive before but was dug out by He Dong. This time she was pregnant and encountered an earthquake, but she escaped safely.
The luck is extraordinary.
"Those who survive a great disaster will be blessed in the future. The good days for you and He Dong are still ahead. I wish you happiness." Lin Qian said, looking at the two of them.
Pan'er knew that it was Lin Qian who saved He Dong and sent people to find her, which was why she was able to survive. Therefore, she was very grateful to Lin Qian.
Lin Qian waved her hand and went back to seeing patients.
Ho Tung and Pan'er experienced the ups and downs of life in the first half of their lives, but because they met each other, they ushered in a happy life in the future. From this point of view, both of them were very lucky.
