When the stretcher was carried back to Ergouzi's home, Ergouzi's mother threw herself on the stretcher, hugged Ergouzi and cried loudly.
"My son! Wake up quickly, mother is here, come and see me."
Ergouzi's mother saw her son on a stretcher, who was still full of energy and arguing with her this morning.
He was lying on a stretcher with a pale face and blood on his pants.
I feel terrible!
"His sixth uncle, how come he was fine when he left in the morning, but became like this when he came back." Ergou's mother simply couldn't accept it.
The child she had raised with great effort was about to get married.
Gone?!
Ergou's mother was overwhelmed with grief and immersed in sorrow. She completely ignored what Uncle Yang said.
"Er Gouzi, you're gone at such a young age. How can I live?"
Ergouzi's father also thought that his child was gone, so he squatted beside him and covered his face and cried.
Uncle Yang Liu has a big head.
It is true that like parents, like son.
He finally understood why Ergou was so lazy all day.
There is no reliable person in this family.
Why don't you listen to me?
"Er Gouzi's mother, please stop howling! Er Gouzi is still alive and well, please be quiet."
At least Ergouzi's father still listens to him.
Because of Ergouzi's mother's loud voice, the villagers who didn't know the truth actually thought that Ergouzi was dead.
Amidst the noise and bustle.
"Mom...I'm still alive." Ergouzi opened his eyes weakly.
He was already feeling dizzy and was woken up by his mother's loud voice.
However, Ergouzi's mother was so immersed in her sorrow that she didn't hear Ergouzi's voice at all.
The villagers watching nearby were talking at the same time.
"Er Gouzi is awake! Wake up!"
"Er Gouzi's mother, please stop howling. Your Er Gouzi is still alive."
"Hurry up and let Old Man Niu take a look. Don't delay. Look at the blood."
Only then did Ergouzi's mother see that her son was looking at him with a pale face.
"Ergou, you little bastard, scared my mother to death." As he said this, he wiped the tears from his face with his sleeves.
Uncle Yang Liu quickly asked someone to carry Ergouzi into the house so that Old Man Niu could treat him.
Ergouzi's mother hurriedly pulled Old Man Niu into the house.
"Uncle Niu, please treat Ergouzi quickly. He has lost a lot of blood." Ergouzi's mother felt very distressed.
Old Man Niu was caught off guard and almost tripped over the threshold.
Old Man Niu looked at the bandaged wound and after untying the bandage, he saw that there was no bleeding wound, but a big gash had appeared, and the blood in the flesh was clearly visible.
Old Man Niu quickly bandaged the wound and said, "This herbal medicine is effective. It has stopped the bleeding. Hurry and send it to the hospital. I can't treat this. The wound is too big. It needs to be sutured in the hospital."
As soon as he finished speaking, Uncle Yang Liu hurried out to ask Old Yang to harness the ox cart.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Uncle Yang Liu's mind: Xu Zhiyi knows about herbal medicine, so could he also cure diseases?
Then, thinking that Xu Zhiyi was very young and didn't seem like he could learn much, he put the idea behind him.
After the ox cart arrived, Wang Fugui and Ergouzi's father worked together to carry the baby onto the cart.
Xu Zhiyi, who was walking over with a backpack on his back, saw that they were going to take Ergouzi to the city, so he stopped them.
"We can't go like this! The road is too bumpy and the wound will bleed. He might lose too much blood before he reaches the hospital, which is very dangerous!" Xu Zhiyi said to them.
Wang Guifen turned to look at Old Man Niu, trying to hear a different answer from him.
Old Man Niu had learned some basic medical knowledge from a country wandering doctor, and he usually treated colds and flu.
Sometimes when villagers are seriously ill from overwork, they will get some medicine from him.
Give me 15 cents, at least I can afford it.
As for the effect, it is minimal.
After all, going to the hospital for treatment is simply unaffordable.
Old Man Niu is the only person in the village who knows some medical skills, so the villagers naturally dare not offend him easily.
Most people in the village still believed what he said.
"What kind of girl is this? She's talking nonsense! She's in such a serious condition that she shouldn't be taken to the hospital."
Old Man Niu refuted Xu Zhiyi's words. If he listened to the little girl's nonsense today, would anyone in the village dare to come to him to buy medicine in the future?
The villagers must believe what Old Man Niu said, and no one believed what Xu Zhiyi said.
"Gui Fen, hurry up and send Er Gouzi to the hospital. He looks weird."
"These educated youth from the city, relying on their education, just speak nonsense."
"Yeah, look at this guy, his face is so pale, not even a bit bloody."
The onlookers were talking to each other, but most of them did not believe what Xu Zhiyi said.
"I think Xu Zhiqing is right. This road is so bumpy, it's bound to get you hurt."
There were still people who objected, but their voices were drowned out by other voices.
"What are you looking at? Send them away quickly!" Old Man Niu got the support of the villagers and looked at Xu Zhiyi with disdain.
"You can't go. If you go today, Ergouzi will be in danger." Xu Zhiyi stopped him.
Wang Fugui looked around, not knowing who to listen to.
Old Yang wanted to drive the ox cart, but Xu Zhiyi blocked his way and he couldn't get through.
"Xu Zhiqing, please move aside. My son Ergou can't afford any more time!" Wang Guifen said as she stepped forward and tried to pull her away.
Wang Guifen grabbed Xu Zhiyi's arm, trying to pull her away.
Unexpectedly, Xu Zhiyi stood still and was not moved at all.
"Xu Zhiqing, this is a matter of life and death, don't take it lightly!" The village chief came over with a serious look on his face.
"Hurry up and tell her to go away. When I, Old Man Niu, was treating the villagers, this little girl was still in her mother's womb. Why is she making such a fuss now?"
Old man Niu was jumping up and down, full of sarcasm.
Xu Zhiyi remained unmoved and completely ignored Old Man Niu's anger.
Old Man Niu became even angrier and kept talking.
"What if we don't send him to the hospital? Can we cure him just by watching him?"
"What a vicious woman! This is a human life. What are you thinking?"
Seeing that Wang Guifen couldn't hold Xu Zhiyi back, several women wanted to come up and help pull Xu Zhiyi away.
He kept advising, "Xu Zhiqing, please leave quickly. Er Gouzi still needs treatment for his injuries."
The village chief knew Xu Zhiyi a little and knew that she must have a purpose for doing this.
"Xu Zhiqing, do you have any way to save Er Gouzi?"
Xu Zhiyi nodded. With her around, Ergouzi’s injuries were no big deal.
"His wound is too open and needs stitches. I can do it!"
The crowd of onlookers went wild. This educated youth from the city really has what it takes?
"Xu Zhiqing, this is a real person, no joking around. If anything goes wrong, you won't be able to bear the consequences."
The village chief kindly reminded her.
