The next morning after breakfast, Gu Chun took Gu Xia and Gu Dong out, and Gu Qiu went out to school alone today.
Gu Dong was very happy to finally have his own schoolbag, even though that schoolbag was used by his sister before, but having a military green bag at home these days is very enviable.
Gu Chun made some improvements, shortened the straps, and embroidered a five-pointed star on the bag. The child put on the cross-body bag and walked out the door with a proud and confident look.
When they arrived at the entrance of the Yuhong class, they saw many parents and children struggling.
Some children were unwilling to go in and cried loudly at the door. Seeing this, Gu Chun was a little worried that Gu Dong would be scared and not want to go to school.
When I turned around, I saw Gu Dong had already walked in and was surrounded by a group of children.
Children also have their own aesthetic tastes. Gu Dong is pretty and cute, with big round eyes and two pigtails. As soon as the children see her, they rush over to make friends with her and forget that they don't want to go to school.
Gu Dong, who was surrounded, was not at all nervous. He put his hands on his hips and said in a baby voice, "If you all want to be friends with me, then you have to recognize me as the boss. Now listen to me, charge!"
As she said that, she rushed in with a group of children. Gu Chun and Gu Xia looked at each other in silence, wondering if their sister was too arrogant.
Gu Chun ignored her and walked straight to the teacher to explain the situation. He then went into the office to pay the tuition and left with Gu Xia.
When they reached the door, a child suddenly rushed over and bumped into Gu Xia's legs and fell down. Gu Xia quickly helped her up.
The child was about four or five years old, with two pigtails. The clothes he wore were obviously not available locally, they were very Western.
Before Gu Chun could say anything, a woman rushed up and loudly accused him, "What are you doing? Standing there is an eyesore and caused my daughter to fall."
I originally thought that the parents would come over to apologize, but I didn't expect them to point at their noses and scold them right away. Gu Chun couldn't bear it anymore. Behind every naughty child there is a naughty parent.
"Is this your home? We can't stand here? You didn't even pull the kid aside, you were running around recklessly, and now you're blaming us. You're so shameless."
The woman seemed surprised that Gu Chun, a little girl, dared to scold her directly. She thought she was a soft persimmon that was easy to take advantage of.
She was also angry when someone said that: "Where did you come from, you little bitch, to be so rude. You stood there and caused my daughter to fall. If anything happens to my daughter, you won't be able to pay for it with your own life."
"Oh, is your daughter a princess or a lady? She's being killed for a fall. Who's your boss's child? I'd like to ask him who is the leader's child who would let us, upright citizens, pay for his daughter's life."
When this person heard that her family was powerful, Gu Chun immediately seized her weakness. These days, people are afraid of being reported for having feudal ideas.
The woman was also frightened when she heard it, and said with a bad face: "Don't talk nonsense, don't slander me, I have something else to do and don't have time to deal with you, don't let me meet you again next time." After that, she turned and ran away without caring about her precious daughter.
Gu Chun was speechless. He gave in so quickly. He thought he was so awesome.
Seeing that the problem was solved, the teacher quickly walked up and said, "Ms. Gu Dong, that person just now was the wife of the director of the Materials Bureau. You'd better be careful."
The teacher's words were also a reminder to Gu Chun not to offend the leader. Gu Chun understood the teacher's good intentions. Although she was not worried about what the leader could do, she still wanted to thank the teacher.
"Oh, I see. Thank you for the reminder, teacher. We'll leave first and pick up Gu Dong after school."
After leaving the Yuhong class, Gu Chun took Gu Xia on the bus to the Central Hospital.
The hospital is not far away, just three stops away.
After entering the hospital, they went straight to the surgery department to find Huang Xiuxiu's mother, Nurse Lin. Huang Xiuxiu looked very much like her mother, so Gu Chun recognized her at a glance and walked up to greet her with Gu Xia:
"Hello, you must be Aunt Lin, I'm Xiuxiu's colleague Gu Chun."
"Gu Chun, Xiuxiu told me last night that it was your brother who came to see a doctor, right?" Head Nurse Lin looked decisive and spoke very quickly.
"Yes, this is my brother Gu Xia. I brought him here to check his throat." Gu Xia smiled and nodded to Nurse Lin.
"I'll take you to see Doctor Xu. He was Doctor Zhang's former apprentice and has very good medical skills." As she said that, she took them to the door of an office, knocked on the door, and when she heard a response from inside, she opened the door and went in.
"Doctor Xu, these two are my daughter's friends. Please help them."
This is how it is in hospitals nowadays. If you know someone there, you don’t have to queue and can go directly to the doctor.
"Okay, please take a seat, both of you," said Dr. Xu.
Dr. Xu looked young, probably in his twenties or thirties. He was wearing a white coat and seemed to have a mild temper.
"Hello, Dr. Xu, could you please take a look at my brother? He suddenly lost his voice from his throat a while ago." Gu Chun said.
After the examination, Dr. Xu said to them, "Comrade Gu Xia's throat is not pathological, but probably caused by a stress response. There is currently no effective treatment, and you can only rely on yourself to relieve the knot, unless..."
Seeing that Doctor Xu was hesitant to speak, Gu Chun knew that he must have some solution, but he just couldn't say it, so he quickly pleaded, "Doctor Xu, if you have any other ideas, please tell us. We are at our wit's end. The child is only fourteen years old, and not being able to speak is seriously affecting his life and studies."
Dr. Xu had just learned about their family and hoped that Gu Xia would get better soon.
He sighed and said helplessly, "My master, Mr. Zhang Banxia, did treat this disease. But he used acupuncture and moxibustion, which is now considered to be poor. If you..."
These days, few Chinese medicine practitioners can escape disaster. This Mr. Zhang should be the dismissed doctor mentioned by Head Nurse Lin.
These two experts all said that he had good medical skills. Gu Chun did not conform to the ideas of this era and she still highly respected traditional Chinese medicine.
"I don't think Chinese medicine is bad, as long as it can cure my brother. Could you please give us Dr. Zhang's address?"
Walking out of the hospital, Gu Chun thought about what Doctor Xu said: "My master is afraid of being reported and now he dares not treat patients. You can go find him and see if he is willing to help your brother."
Gu Chun thought that he had to buy some gifts to bring over in the afternoon, and no matter what, he had to let Dr. Zhang see Gu Xia.
In the afternoon, Gu Chun took Gu Xia out.
Doctor Zhang's home is an independent small courtyard. It is said that he lives alone, and his son and his family are all working in the Construction Corps.
I walked to the door, knocked, and heard someone answer.
The door opened and the person who came in was an old man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties, and he smelled of medicinal herbs.
"Hello, are you Dr. Zhang Banxia? I'm Gu Chun, and I've brought my younger brother to ask you for medical help." Gu Chun handed over the gift he had bought, which was a can of malted milk and a pastry.
"I don't treat patients, please go back." The old man looked serious and his attitude towards them was obviously wary.
