As Fang Mingxiao finished speaking, Aunt Lin's eyes visibly brightened, and she asked in a trembling voice, "You are Dr. Xia's grandson. Hey, Dr. Xia is a good person."
Then Aunt Lin told some old stories, and Jiang Yanqing realized that the name Xia Qishan was not only famous in Leshan Village, but also had a certain reputation in the entire Leshan County.
Moreover, Xia Qishan actually had a life-saving debt from Aunt Lin. It was truly a coincidence.
He was initially demoted to Leshan County and kept a low profile for two years. Later, after gradually becoming familiar with the place, he saved several patients from the brink of life and death.
The rumor that there was a famous doctor in Leshan Village spread, and occasionally people from the county town would come to see Xia Qishan for treatment. Xia Qishan did not charge any money, but only accepted some food as a thank-you gift, and the patients who were cured were even more grateful.
Jiang Yanqing didn't know that when Xia Qishan died, many people came to see him off spontaneously, but the Xia family had no backup to inherit his legacy, so he was gradually forgotten.
It was just a forgotten memory. When Fang Mingxiao mentioned it, Aunt Lin immediately remembered that she had a difficult delivery when she gave birth to her youngest son. Thanks to Xia Qishan's excellent medical skills, both mother and child were safe.
Aunt Lin had tears in her eyes and mixed feelings in her heart. If Dr. Xia were still alive, hitting her son's legs might have saved him!
But Fang Mingxiao in front of her looked a bit like Xia Qishan when he was young. Aunt Lin was filled with emotion. She patted Fang Mingxiao's arm, sighed and said, "Mingxiao, it's not that I don't believe you. Your brother Ming knows that his leg can't be cured, so he doesn't want to see a doctor."
Jiang Yanqing also sighed and advised, "Aunt Lin, Brother Jiaming is still young and has a long life ahead of him. There's a good chance his leg will recover. Do you really want to give up like him?"
"The reason I asked Fang Mingxiao to come here is because I passed on all of Dr. Xia's medical skills to him."
It’s not that Jiang Yanqing likes to meddle in other people’s business, but Aunt Lin has helped her many times, and the Qi family has also been kind to her. She is about to move to the city and doesn’t know when she will be able to come back.
So before leaving, if he could really cure Qi Jiaming's leg, then he would have put his mind at ease, and the Qi family was worth his effort.
Aunt Lin glanced at the room, gritted her teeth, and said, as if she had made up her mind, "Qing girl, you and Mingxiao wait outside. I'll go talk to Jiaming."
The two nodded, and Aunt Lin went into the house. Soon, crying sounds were heard from the room. Aunt Lin cried and said, "Jia Ming, please try again. No matter what the result is, I will accept it. Okay?"
"Mom, please let them go back and thank Yan Qing and the others for me. I won't bother with my legs anymore."
Jiang Yanqing thought about it and simply went straight into the house. Aunt Lin and Qi Jiaming were in the main room on the right. Qi Jiaming was leaning on the kang, and Aunt Lin was sitting beside the kang wiping her tears.
"Brother Jiaming, you are a soldier. You are not afraid of bullets and gunfire. Are you afraid of seeing a doctor?"
"Or rather, you've become so cruel that you've even disregarded your mother, the one who gave birth to you. I hope she'll still be worried about you even when she's quite old."
"It's just a check on your legs. We, your family and friends, will shoulder the consequences, good or bad. Do you think you deserve to be in that uniform by being so cowardly?"
Aunt Lin watched Jiang Yanqing getting angrier and angrier as she spoke. Her mouth moved a few times, but she still didn't say anything. For the sake of her son, if Jiang Yanqing could really scold him awake, if his leg could really be saved, then it would truly be God's blessing.
Qi Jiaming's face was very dark. He clenched his back teeth tightly, puffed up his cheeks, and looked at Jiang Yanqing with a serious look.
Jiang Yanqing didn't flinch at all and looked straight over.
After a silent struggle, Qi Jiaming finally sighed and said weakly, "Please let the doctor in!"
Aunt Lin and Jiang Yanqing both had a hint of joy on their faces, and Jiang Yanqing quickly called out, "Fang Mingxiao, come in quickly."
Soon, Fang Mingxiao came in and looked at the man on the bed, but neither of them spoke first.
Aunt Lin lifted the gauze wrapped around her son's leg, revealing the wound. Jiang Yanqing took a look and gasped.
I saw a very long wound on the tibia. The wound must have been treated and then broken. It was still oozing blood and there was a blood scab next to it. The most important and serious thing was that the wound had festered and was very swollen.
Jiang Yanqing found it hard to imagine what kind of pain Qi Jiaming had been enduring, as he had been exiling himself and refusing medical treatment. It was probably more because the heartache of the embarrassing end of his military career had numbed the pain in his body.
