Throughout the afternoon, Mrs. Wang’s yard was full of people.
The other leaders of the army also came over, but it was useless no matter how many people came, no one could withstand this natural and man-made disaster.
Li Yuanzhong did wake up once, but it was worse when he was awake than when he was in a coma. At least the pain was not that severe when he was in a coma. When he woke up, the pain was almost worse than death.
The stick was still inserted into his thigh. During this period, some people discussed taking it out, but they were afraid that it would continue to bleed and no one dared to move it.
Later, Li Yuan was in pain and the fever became more and more severe.
Gradually, I fell asleep again due to the fever.
Mrs. Wang wiped her tears for a while, then firmly wiped Li Yuan's body with a wet towel to cool down.
She only has a son like Li Yuan. Her husband died young many years ago, and the mother and son depend on each other. Li Yuan has no family, so the old lady has to force herself to hold on even if she is heartbroken.
Unlike other military subordinates in the compound, Li Yuan is just a squad leader. People at this level do not have military names and cannot be assigned to live in the compound.
It was Huo Jianguo who heard that Li Yuan's mother was in poor health and needed someone to take care of her, so he made an exception and granted them a small courtyard to settle down in the military compound.
Therefore, both Mrs. Wang and Li Yuan were particularly grateful to Huo Jianguo, and it was for this reason that Mrs. Wang was extra polite to Su Mei.
The life and death of the only son hangs by a thread. The old lady is obviously suffering from liver and gallbladder failure, but she has to cheer up and stay with her son. This scene makes emotional people unable to hold back tears several times.
Huo Jianguo was even more confused. Every time there was something new about Li Yuan, he couldn't help but think of Su Mei's fat face.
But as soon as the idea emerges, he will immediately suppress it.
He didn't believe that the woman could see a doctor, but he couldn't help but think of the scene when she checked his pulse last night and then threw the snowball to him solemnly.
I can't help but think of her fluent tone when reciting prescriptions in the kitchen.
And when she talked about seeing a doctor for Li Yuan, her face showed confidence and persistence that she had never seen before.
It was freezing outside, and someone lit a fire in the yard, but Huo Jianguo stood alone outside the courtyard gate, exposing himself to the cold.
"Just wake up!" He kept reminding himself that he couldn't trust Su Mei. That was a human life, and he couldn't treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
But what if she really knows it? Huo Jianguo couldn't stop such thoughts from arising in his heart. After all, he also knew that Su Mei's grandfather was indeed a famous doctor famous in every village in the country.
Su Mei's grandfather is called Su Xuanhu. He is not an ordinary country doctor, but a decent Chinese medicine practitioner who has studied hard. In his early years, he opened a medical clinic in the town.
Later, relevant policies came down that did not allow private shops to be opened, so Su Xuanhu was forced to close the medical clinic.
It's just that although the medical clinic was closed, Su Xuanhu's medical skills and reputation were still outstanding. He returned to the countryside and worked as a foot doctor, and people from far and near would still go to him for medical treatment.
He did not charge money for medical treatment, but only paid for the medicinal materials collected from the mountains. It can be said that Su Xuanhu was a truly benevolent doctor and an old doctor respected by all nearby villages.
Huo Jianguo's parents initially persuaded Huo Jianguo to marry Su Mei because of Su Xuanhu's local prestige.
Although Huo Jianguo didn't believe Su Mei, Su Mei's grandfather Su Xuanhu was too famous, and he had vaguely heard from his family that Su Mei was raised by her grandfather.
It’s not a deliberate mention, it’s just a complaint. Huo Jianguo’s mother said this:
"Hey, that's too bad. How come Dr. Su, such a good person, raised a granddaughter like this? He has been upright and upright in his life. His only failure is probably that he spoiled this girl."
"Who says it's not the case? I thought at first that this girl might just be a little fat and unruly. The children raised by Dr. Su can't be too bad. Who would have thought that such a thing would really harm our Jianguo." What follows is this. Those words were said by Huo Jianguo's father.
Whether from Su Mei herself or from others, Huo Jianguo came to the conclusion that Su Mei did grow up with Dr. Su.
No matter how stupid a person is, after following the old doctor for more than ten years, he will always absorb some common medical knowledge.
Huo Jianguo's heart was actually swaying.
He felt that even if he died, he couldn't believe someone as good as Su Mei.
He was also worried that if Su Mei could really do it, then if he refused Su Mei's treatment, it would probably delay Li Yuan's chance of survival.
From joining the army at the age of eighteen to ten years now, Huo Jianguo felt that no decision he had ever made was as painful as it is today.
Time was still passing by little by little, and a fire was burning in the yard. The flames were extinguishing clearly, just like Huo Jianguo's heart.
While everyone was watching in silence, several people responsible for taking care of the room suddenly made some urgent sounds.
"Hey, why are you bleeding so much?"
"I can't even block it, and my mouth is bleeding. What's going on?"
"Why are you acting like this all of a sudden? I can't seem to get my anger out!"
"Turn the person over quickly and let the blood flow out. Don't let the blood flow into the throat and choke the trachea."
........
A series of anxious voices sounded in the room.
Then Xie Li suddenly rushed out, crying:
"It's over, it's over, Li Yuan seems to be dying!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the yard stood up.
Huo Jianguo was even more shocked.
After Xie Li finished speaking, he covered his mouth and slapped himself hard. He said those words in a hurry, but after he finished speaking, he remembered that Mrs. Wang was still in the house.
Everyone stood in the snowy night with sad expressions. After Huo Jianguo exhaled, he turned around and walked into the yard, opened the door curtain and walked into the house.
He saw Zhao Ying holding a towel to block Li Yuan's nose. The white towel had been stained red with blood. Li Yuan's face was pale and lifeless on the bed.
Mrs. Wang, who had persisted all afternoon, finally couldn't bear it anymore, knelt on the bed and cried loudly:
"My son, you must hold on. Even if you are lame and disabled, mother can still take care of you. You can't be like your damn father, who just left without leaving a word for me. .
If you leave, the mother will take a knife and wipe her neck and follow you. "
The sound of grief and wailing caused the lesbians in the room who were taking care of him to burst into tears.
Huo Jianguo also shed a tear from the corner of his eye. He quickly wiped it away without letting anyone see it.
Then, as if he had made some huge decision, he withdrew from the room with a heavy expression.
"Xie Li." Huo Jianguo shouted as he exited the room.
Xie Li never stopped for a day, from morning patrol to rescue to taking care of Li Yuan.
He sat paralyzed in the snow, but when he heard Huo Jianguo's voice, he immediately stood up and responded loudly:
"arrive."
"Go and call Su Mei over." Huo Jianguo ordered.
Xie Li couldn't help but frown when he heard this: "Teacher, why are you calling that fat...sister-in-law to come over?"
Huo Jianguo only replied with four words: "Execute the order."
