Chapter 210: Resentment
What moved Zhang Shan even more was that his sister-in-law valued the people around her as much as the battalion commander did.
The battalion commander used his own flesh and blood to save several of his soldiers, and my sister-in-law's first thought after traveling thousands of miles was to settle her men.
Moved by the scene, Zhang Shan stood at attention and saluted involuntarily.
With full of admiration, he said, "Sister-in-law, please tell me what I need!"
Wen Kexin had no idea that she had inadvertently gained a new little fan.
He said calmly, "After you have arranged for Li Si, buy a razor."
Zhang Shan suddenly thought of the beard on the battalion commander's face.
He has been guarding the battalion commander these two days and has no time to buy a razor.
Unexpectedly, my sister-in-law didn’t mention any of her own needs, but first cared about the battalion commander.
He said guiltily: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, these few days... I promise to complete the task!"
Wen Kexin understood the other person. Compared to life, beard was just a small matter.
She noticed that it had been five days since Song Mo was injured, and his body was clean and had no odor, which meant that Zhang Shan took good care of him.
Looking at Zhang Shan again, he has obvious dark circles around his eyes. It is conceivable that he must have had a very hard time these days.
"Sister-in-law doesn't blame you, it's not easy for you either!"
Zhang Shan was touched by these considerate words. His sister-in-law was reasonable and did not blame him.
He was just about to take Li Si away.
Li Si said firmly: "Sister-in-law, you go and rest, I will take care of Brother Song."
On the train, I ate a lot of delicious food but didn't do much.
When they arrived at the place, the first thing my sister-in-law thought of was to let him rest.
How could he have the nerve to accept this care with peace of mind?
Wen Kexin said in a comforting tone: "Li Si, thanks to your protection along the way, we were able to get here smoothly. You go and rest first. When Song Mo wakes up, he will need your care. Then I will rest."
The rough-edged Li Si nodded and said, "Okay!"
Zhang Shan was confused when he heard this?
Is my sister-in-law confused? Or is it that your ears are ringing due to inflammation?
Just now, he felt that he had made it very clear that Captain Song had no hope, and his sister-in-law came to take a look and wait for the preparations for his funeral.
What did my sister-in-law say when the battalion commander woke up?
Could it be that my sister-in-law was hit so hard that she became mentally disturbed?
If he said it again, it would be like cutting flesh with a blunt knife, which would be too cruel to his sister-in-law.
It doesn't look like my sister-in-law is losing her composure.
I can only kindly remind you, "Sister-in-law, please go in and sit down for a while. The attending doctor will come to check on you later, and you can ask him in detail."
"Okay, I got it!"
Only then did Zhang Shan take Li Si away.
Wen Kexin turned back to the ward, washed a towel, and wiped Song Mo's face and hands.
Found the towels to be clean.
Then, she sat on the chair in front of the hospital bed, holding Song Mo's lifeless hand, and looked at the man who made her miss him but had no reaction.
She didn't know how much time had passed, but tears soaked her eyes and her consciousness gradually became blurred.
Just when she was drowsy.
Suddenly, with a "bang", the door of the ward was opened.
Two men and women in white coats walked in. It was obvious that the middle-aged man was a doctor and the young woman was a nurse.
Wen Kexin quickly remembered what Zhang Shan said about the attending physician coming soon, so these two must be them.
"doctor……"
The middle-aged man nodded to her and said, "Routine check!"
Wen Kexin was about to ask a question but then she retracted it, wanting to wait until the doctor examined her before speaking.
Soon, the middle-aged doctor checked Song Mo's heartbeat with a stethoscope. After writing down a few words, he looked at Song Mo's eyelids in confusion.
Wen Kexin asked hurriedly: "Doctor, is my husband's illness getting better?"
"Not only is his heartbeat regular now, it's also stronger. See how it's getting. I'll prescribe some medicine for him to have on a drip to see how it works."
Wen Kexin was overjoyed and guessed that the lotus seeds and tomato juice must have taken effect, so she would feed him some more later.
Only then did I remember why I had felt something was wrong since I entered the ward.
"Doctor, my husband doesn't have an IV today?"
The doctor was obviously uncomfortable and patiently explained: "It's like this. We have been treating for several days in a row and have used all the emergency medicines that should be used, but there is no effect. We want to observe for two days before making a decision."
Wen Kexin immediately understood that it sounded good, but in fact, after the rescue was ineffective, the hospital gave up treatment.
Now that I see the patient is getting better, I want to try continuing to use the medication.
She knew that Western medicine was in short supply in that era, there was a war on the front line, and the number of patients in the hospital was increasing. Anyone would tilt the drug resources towards patients who could be cured.
From the doctor's perspective, this seems reasonable, but from the family's perspective, this is unbearable.
She came, and although there were no Western medicines, there was a lot of space for storing top-quality Chinese medicinal materials.
She wanted to save Song Mo in her own way.
"Doctor, is there a Chinese medicine doctor in the hospital? I brought a lot of good Chinese medicines. I want to know what medicines can be used to treat Song Mo's injury?"
Before the doctor could speak, the young female nurse said, "You can give the Chinese medicinal materials to the hospital, and the hospital will consider giving Song Mo the medicine."
Wen Kexin realized that the hospital was short of not only Western medicine, but also Chinese medicinal materials.
Wen Kexin was quite displeased when she heard the female nurse's inhumane answer.
If you don't understand what I'm saying, then I'll say it again, "Sister nurse, I spent all my money to buy the Chinese medicinal herbs I brought. The elders at home told me that I must give them to Song Mo, and the rest should be distributed to other wounded soldiers."
She didn't want to escalate the conflict, so she explained the preciousness of the medicinal materials and used the elderly in her family as an excuse to rudely retort the other party's shameless words.
The other party was humiliated and couldn't say anything.
The middle-aged doctor immediately came out to smooth things over, "Tingting, don't give any rash advice, this family member is right!"
Then, he looked at her apologetically and said, "I spoiled her. Please forgive me, lady. There are many Chinese medicine practitioners in the hospital. If you want to consult, I will send one over later."
It turns out that this doctor is the nurse's elder, no wonder he explained for her.
Since the other party has apologized, Wen Kexin didn't want to dwell on the matter and was eager to know which medicinal herbs would be beneficial to Song Mo's injury.
She made it clear, "It's okay, please ask the doctor to give Song Mo an IV as soon as possible, and send a Chinese medicine doctor over as soon as possible."
"OK!"
The middle-aged doctor walked out. The female nurse looked at Wen Kexin with disdain and followed the middle-aged doctor out.
Wen Kexin was sent to the door of the ward.
I saw Zhang Shan walking towards me with something in his hand.
When she got closer, Wen Kexin saw that he was holding a razor in his hand.
"How much?"
Zhang Shan said apologetically, "Sister-in-law, it didn't cost much, forget it."
Wen Kexin took out two big unity notes and said, "This is not just for the razor money. You spent a lot of money taking care of Song Mo for a few days, right? You must take this money."
"Sister-in-law, many comrades and military leaders came to visit Song Mo and left a lot of money. I wrote it down."
Wen Kexin waved her hand and said, "Just take the money my sister-in-law gave you. We'll settle these things later. Just now a nurse and a doctor came for a routine checkup. The nurse's name is Tingting. What's their relationship?"
Zhang Shan quickly remembered and explained, "It should be Doctor Xiao and Nurse Xiao. They are uncle and niece."
Wen Kexin had a grudge against the uncle and niece, and said anxiously: "Song Mo is obviously much better. Please ask an old Chinese doctor with good medical skills to check him again as soon as possible."
