If Jiang Sui hadn't taught them that pinching acupoints could provide some relief, they would definitely not have been able to make it this long distance.
It was finally night. Yu Zhi and Fang Miaojia looked out the car window and saw that there was no village or shop nearby, and they felt a little worried.
"There's not even a guesthouse nearby, Sui Sui, where should we stay tonight?"
Jiang Sui bent her index finger and tapped the foreheads of the two men one by one with amusement.
"Saving people is the most important thing. We can't rest at night. We have to travel overnight."
The two little girls felt their scalps tingling after hearing this. They had never been so tired from riding in a car since they were young.
But when they thought about the fact that they were going to the western village to rescue people, neither of the two girls complained of being tired, and they just gritted their teeth and persevered.
Jiang Sui saw the performance of the two of them and couldn't help but reveal a look of relief.
Thinking that it would take a long time to get to the destination, she hesitated for a moment and turned to ask the patient's family.
"Can you tell me what the patient's condition is like?"
The patient's family members all looked worried, but when they heard her question, they still pulled themselves together and explained:
"The person who got sick was my 70-year-old lady. She suddenly had stomach pain a while ago, so we took her to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said that she felt like there was a stone in her stomach."
"Although all the tests were done, the equipment in the county was outdated and the doctors were afraid to perform surgery for fear that the patient would die."
When Jiang Sui heard this, he couldn't help but break out in a sweat.
It is indeed too risky for a 70-year-old to undergo surgery.
She clenched her slightly moist palms, looked at the quiet night outside the car window, and made a secret decision in her heart.
In any case, try your best to see what happens.
West Village.
As soon as dawn broke, the village became bustling.
Lin Daichuan brought a large group of people and prepared to go to the riverside to work.
Looking at the slowly flowing river in front of them, the villagers' expressions were filled with emotion and relief.
"I remember that not long ago, the river in our village was said to be one of the most difficult to manage. Every time it rained heavily, the water level would rise and destroy a lot of food and other things."
"Thanks to Daichuan for helping us rebuild and dredge the river, otherwise we wouldn't know how long we would have to endure this kind of suffering."
When Lin Daichuan first arrived in the village and said he wanted to lead everyone to rebuild the river, not many people were willing to listen to him.
Everyone thought that this intellectual from the city couldn't stand the blow of falling from grace, so he wanted to find something to do to comfort his heart.
After being rejected, Lin Daichuan’s favorite thing was to stand by the river and stare at the rushing river in a daze.
Some enthusiastic villagers couldn't stand it anymore, and fearing that he would quit sooner or later if he continued to suppress his will, they began to help him repair the river with the intention of comforting him.
Unexpectedly, this unanticipated project actually made them famous in the end.
As the river channel was gradually improved, the originally turbulent water flow gradually calmed down, and more and more villagers joined them.
Under the command of Lin Daichuan and the joint efforts of everyone, they finally conquered the river completely during the rainy season last year.
Even though there happened to be a rare torrential rainstorm at that time, the river channel showed no signs of flooding after the repair, thus protecting the lives and property of the villagers.
Everyone was grateful to Lin Daichuan and had complete faith in him from then on.
Lin Daichuan is a very humble person. He never takes credit for himself and always says that since he has come to Xibian Village, he must make a contribution to the place.
Over the years, whether it was exploring the terrain or digging canals, he did it himself, and put in countless hard work and sweat.
The villagers saw his performance and while they admired him, they also felt particularly distressed for him.
"Daichuan is good in every way, except that he is too honest. He has been here for so many years, but he has not suffered much hardship since being sent down to the countryside. Instead, he has brought all the hardship and fatigue upon himself in order to benefit the village."
Everyone was chatting while working, time passed quickly, and soon it was noon.
The sun is so scorching in the summer that it is impossible to work at noon.
Lin Daichuan estimated the time and said:
"Everyone has worked hard today. Let's stop and rest for a while. We will start working again in the afternoon when the sun is not shining."
The villagers put down their tools and found the shade of the trees to rest.
Different from the noble literati in our impression, Lin Daichuan was extremely hard-working and never thought of asking for any special treatment even though he was so tired every day.
Other villagers had dry food and side dishes prepared by their families, but he was alone and could only eat some hard steamed buns.
Everyone felt sorry for him and invited him to have dinner with them, but he refused.
"I accept everyone's kindness, but the steamed buns are also very delicious. I like them very much."
Lin Daichuan smiled as he broke off a large piece of steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it carefully with some cold water.
But the more he acted like he didn't care, the more heartbroken others felt.
"It's such a pity for Daichuan. Someone as capable as him should have done something great."
"Yes, if it weren't for the changes in the past few years, Daichuan wouldn't have to stay in a small mountain valley like ours all day long."
Everyone felt sorry for Lin Daichuan, but he himself didn't care.
He ate steamed buns while admiring the beautiful scenery of the mountains, his tone very calm.
"Everyone has their own position in life. For me, anything that can help everyone is of top priority."
After hearing this, the villagers admired Lin Daichuan's character even more.
Knowing that he was a person who liked quietness, everyone stopped disturbing him and ate their meals faster, preparing to take a nap so that they would have enough energy to work in the afternoon.
Soon, a snoring sound was heard under the shade of the tree.
Lin Daichuan was not sleepy at all. He walked to the river alone under the sun and stared down at the river water flowing at his feet.
In fact, the villagers were wrong about one thing. People like him would never be so depressed.
Lin Daichuan is not afraid of hardship or not. He doesn't care what happens to him. The only thing he is worried about is his family.
His thoughts gradually drifted far away, and he couldn't help but worry about his wife's current condition.
"I don't know how Huiqing is doing now, whether she is healthy, and whether she is still sad because of me."
Lin Daichuan murmured softly and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
He has always been worried about Xu Huiqing being alone, and if there was no other way, he definitely didn't want to be separated from her.
His father-in-law and mother-in-law might also be disappointed in him.
She was clearly their family's beloved daughter who had been spoiled since childhood, but after marrying him, she suffered a lot.
The more Lin Daichuan thought about it, the more bitter he felt, and he could hardly suppress the longing in his heart.
