Finally, the tractor took them directly to the town’s health center.
Because there is only a health center in the town and there is a hospital in the county.
If they were to go to the county hospital, the journey was a bit far and they were afraid of delays, so they planned to send the patient to the town first, and if that didn't work, then send him to the county hospital.
The tractor was wobbling along the country road. During the journey, Zhang Luyao woke up once. When he saw Xu Nanxing, he looked strange and asked in a daze:
"Nanxing, when did you come?"
Xu Nanxing felt a little strange when he heard this.
I thought Zhang Luyao wanted to ask her when she came back after falling into the river.
Xu Nanxing heard the news and came over when Zhang Luyao fell into the water and was still struggling in the water.
After Zhang Luyao was rescued, he fainted and did not see when Xu Nanxing came.
When Xu Nanxing was about to answer, he saw Zhang Luyao fainted again.
Well, I must be confused, that's why I asked this question.
Xu Nanxing didn't care.
The town’s health center is actually a large courtyard, divided into a consultation area, a pharmacy, and a ward. Many herbs are also dried in the courtyard.
There are quite a few people who come to see the doctor, basically they are residents of the town, and a small number are people from nearby villages. However, most of them come here to see a doctor and get medicine, and not many come here to be hospitalized.
A policeman helped carry Zhang Luyao into the yard and called a doctor to help.
When they heard that the girl had been underwater for too long and had fallen unconscious, the doctor said, "It's not a big deal. As long as she spits out the water, she'll be fine. She was just soaking in the water for too long and is exhausted. She just needs some rest. If you're worried, you can stay here for a day for observation."
"Do I need to get an injection or take some medicine?" Xu Nanxing asked.
Since you're here, you should at least get some medicine, right?
If they just rest, it would be a waste of their trip.
No matter what, I've been prescribed the medicine. If I don't take it now, I can take it later!
Xu Nanxing held on to the belief that since he had come here, he couldn't go back empty-handed, so he begged the doctor to help him prescribe some medicine.
The young doctor blushed at the young girl's pleading, but he still insisted, "We don't have a lot of Western medicine in our hospital, so most of the prescriptions are herbal medicines. But..."
The doctor paused, as if considering his words. "For some reason, many herbs are out of stock, and many patients come to see us because they're short of herbs. And all medicine is toxic. This little girl just choked on some water, so it's not a big deal. She just needs to rest, and there's no need for medication!"
After saying that, he left immediately without caring about their reactions.
He was also afraid that the little girl would pester him for medicine again.
Since the Cultural Revolution, traditional Chinese medicine has suffered an unprecedented blow, and the cultivation of Chinese herbal medicine has stagnated. Relying on the herbs occasionally picked by villagers from the mountains is really insufficient and totally insufficient to meet the needs of patients.
Traditional Chinese medicine has lost its role, and Western medicine cannot be relied upon either.
The development of Western medicine in our country has always been suppressed by Western countries, and many medicines require a large amount of foreign exchange to be purchased from abroad.
However, the output of Western medicines that our country can produce is very low, and the drug quotas obtained by township health centers in remote areas like theirs are very limited.
So their current practice is to not prescribe medicine if possible.
A little girl who fell into the water doesn't need any medicine at all.
Xu Nanxing also began to discuss the follow-up matters.
Zhang Luyao has not yet regained consciousness.
According to the doctor, it would be best to arrange for her to be hospitalized for observation for a day.
When he heard that he had to be hospitalized, Li Wenyuan was a little undecided and hesitant.
Seeing this, Xu Nanxing said, "It's better for her to stay in the hospital for a day, so that she won't have a fever or convulsion in the middle of the night. It would be easier with the doctor here. I'll just take care of her here!"
Li Wenyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xu Nanxing agreed to stay and take care of him. He was also afraid that Zhang Luyao might have an accident in the middle of the night, and it would be reassuring if he stayed in the hospital.
"Then I'll ask Xu Zhiqing to help take care of Zhang Zhiqing. I'll ask the village for leave for both of you, so don't worry!" He added, "If Zhang Zhiqing's condition isn't good, it won't be a problem for him to stay a few more days."
Because there were police officers present to act as guarantors, several people who did not have time to get letters of introduction in the village were able to complete the hospitalization procedures for Zhang Luyao at the health center.
After everyone left, Xu Nanxing began to change clothes for the wet Zhang Luyao.
I had previously asked the educated youth to go to the female educated youth dormitory to help pack a few sets of clothes for Zhang Luyao, and I also wrapped Zhang Luyao in clean clothes on the way.
Now is a good time to change her clothes.
Fortunately, there were no other patients in this ward, and Xu Nanxing quickly changed Zhang Luyao into clean clothes.
I originally planned to ask someone where I could do the laundry, but when I saw Zhang Luyao who was unconscious, I became a little hesitant.
Although there was no one else in the ward, she was afraid that if she walked away, someone with ulterior motives would sneak in and bully her.
Then I would be committing a sin!
Forget it, Xu Nanxing just threw the dirty clothes into the space and asked Xiaoxing to wash them in the washing machine.
Wait until Zhang Luyao wakes up, then take it out to dry.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one here, Xu Nanxing asked Xiaoxing to pack two lunch boxes in aluminum lunch boxes.
Xiaoxing prepares a lot of food for the boss of the apocalypse every day. There is always some left over, which is stored in the storage area to keep fresh.
So Xu Nanxing can always have hot meals at any time.
She had been to too many places today, and the melons here didn't fill her up, so she was now hungry.
Now that I'm free, I have time to eat and fill my stomach.
I asked Xiaoxing to prepare two lunch boxes, one for myself and the other for Zhang Luyao to eat after he woke up.
There is no place to eat in this health center. Even hospitalized patients and their families have to prepare their own meals.
There is no canteen here, and even doctors have to go home to eat or go out to buy food.
So no one would find it strange that Xu Nanxing was eating a box lunch here.
Xiaoxing's cooking skills have improved recently. The braised pork ribs, stir-fried shrimps, and scrambled eggs with tomatoes in the lunch box all taste very good.
Just as Xu Nanxing was showing off her fanfare, she unexpectedly saw Zhang Luyao, who had woken up and was staring at her with his eyes wide open.
"Ahem."
"Why are you awake and not talking?"
"Don't you know that scaring others can kill them?"
Xu Nanxing said unhappily.
Eating happily!
My goodness, there is someone next to you staring at you. Anyone would be scared, right?
If he doesn't choke to death, he will be scared to death!
Zhang Luyao didn't care about Xu Nanxing's complaints, and only said something that almost choked Xu Nanxing to death again:
"Xiao Nanxing, you traveled through time too?"
