Chapter 497: They May Not Survive This Winter
Seeing that she was just looking around in a daze, Ye Shu called out to her, "Auntie? Let me help you. Can you still walk?"
She was planning to check and treat her, but there were blind bears around here. Even though it had left, there was no guarantee it wouldn't come back.
They cannot be left alone, nor can the main force be delayed because of the two of them.
The woman finally came back to her senses and nodded blankly: "Yes, yes."
She pulled her hand away, trying to break free from Ye Shu's support and walk on her own.
But Ye Shu had a strong hand, holding her arm firmly, and said, "Be careful with your steps, let's go."
Seeing this, Sister Jin came over and took the basket from Ye Shu's hand: "I'll help you carry it."
When we reached the foot of the mountain, it was only mid-afternoon, and there was still a long time before dark.
So everyone took the chestnuts home first, and then returned to the foot of the mountain to dig wild vegetables and pick mushrooms.
Because it is very close to the camp and is at the foot of the mountain, the wild vegetables nearby have almost been eaten up. However, it has been raining recently and the weather is humid, so the mushrooms are growing quickly.
Although the weather is indeed cold, many varieties are produced in this season and are still growing very lush and plump.
Ye Shu sent his aunt, who had sprained her ankle, back home.
On the way, she explained her identity as a doctor. Her aunt was obviously surprised and seemed to want to say something, but she didn't say anything in the end.
Ye Shu noticed her change in mood and thought she wanted him to see a doctor, so he didn't take it seriously.
It wasn't until he returned to Camp No. 2 and sent her home that he saw someone. Ye Shu was suddenly shocked: "Mr. Tian?!"
Mr. Tian from the First Military Medical University in Beijing?!
The compilation of the new set of textbooks that she participated in translating was led by this Mr. Tian.
Ye Shu had good eyesight and could recognize it clearly even though the light in the room was very dim.
However, Mr. Tian now looked haggard, thin, and sickly, completely different from the energetic old professor she remembered!
His hair, which was originally gray, was now completely white.
Mr. Tian was originally lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and he didn't look very well. When he heard Ye Shu's surprised cry, he opened his eyes and looked over.
He looked haggard, his eyes were dull, and he was obviously surprised when he recognized Ye Shu.
He was obviously stunned for a moment, and then he moved his lips and said in a low and weak voice: "Ye, Ye Shu?"
Ye Shu nodded: "It's me."
She walked a few steps to his bedside, and seeing that he was in a very bad condition, she couldn't help but frown, and reached out to grab his wrist to take his pulse.
This actually surprised Mr. Tian, and he tried to struggle.
But Ye Shu's hands were strong, and he pressed three fingers firmly on his pulse and said, "Don't move, let me take a look at you."
Mr. Tian was weak and could not match her strength. Seeing that he could not stop it, he winked at the woman at the door.
The woman nodded and stood at the door to keep watch.
Mr. Tian is weak in both qi and blood, and his leg is broken. He has not recovered well. If he delays any longer, he may not survive the winter.
Ye Shu was surprised and guessed what was going on.
Without saying much at the moment, I hurried back to the infirmary and got him some antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs and glucose to hang up first to stabilize his basic physiological functions, and then treat the broken leg depending on the situation.
Mr. Tian was not in good spirits, and coupled with the effect of the medicine, he soon fell asleep again.
The aunt who had been standing next to Ye Shu was now wiping away her tears.
Ye Shu said to her, "Mr. Tian's health is not suitable for surgery right now. Has he not received any treatment or taken any medicine since he broke his leg?"
The woman’s surname is Gu. She is Mr. Tian’s lover and is 52 years old this year.
Aunt Gu had been suppressing her emotions, but after hearing what Ye Shu said, she couldn't help herself and tears streamed down her face. She choked up and nodded, "Yes, there was no doctor to see, no medicine to take, so she was sent all the way here."
In addition to the lack of medical care and medicine, even getting enough food is a problem.
This can be seen from Mr. Tian's pulse.
Aunt Gu was obviously very excited. She grabbed Ye Shu's hand and kept thanking him: "Thank you! Thank you, young comrade!"
Ye Shu is not good at socializing, but she also knows that she doesn't need to say much at this time, she just needs to accompany him quietly.
After a long time, Aunt Gu finally calmed down.
Ye Shu was about to leave when Aunt Gu suddenly tightened her grip on her hand, "Little comrade..."
She said in a very soft voice: "Thank you for saving our Lao Tian. You are a good person. But there is something you need to be careful about."
Ye Shu's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't say anything.
Then she continued, "When you treat patients in the future, you must never use traditional Chinese medicine again."
With just one sentence, Ye Shu understood the situation outside.
Aunt Gu reminded her out of kindness, and Ye Shuxin understood.
Since this matter was brought up, Ye Shu hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Can you tell me what happened to you?"
Aunt Gu saw how Ye Shu cared for them. She not only brought medicine and IV drip for Mr. Tian, but also brought food.
These things are life-saving for them now!
Besides, when she was away just now, Lao Tian had already told her Ye Shu's identity.
At that moment, Aunt Gu no longer hid anything from her.
It turned out that Mr. Tian was implicated by Aunt Gu's family, who used to be in business. In addition, Mr. Tian himself highly respected traditional Chinese medicine and had always opposed the idea of labeling it as a feudal cult.
His leg was broken during his final debate speech when an excited crowd rushed onto the stage!
Speaking of the past, Aunt Gu was very emotional:
"So many people were targeting Old Tian! They almost broke his legs. You can imagine what they were thinking at the time!"
"Most of them are Lao Tian's students! How could they do this?"
Lao Tian is not only a professor at the First Military Medical University, his students include not only medical students from the Military Medical University, but also other medical enthusiasts in society, as well as fans and researchers of traditional Chinese medicine.
The combination of these factors ultimately led to his current situation.
Being in it, I can’t comment.
Ye Shu could only accompany and comfort her silently. When Aunt Gu was tired of crying and her emotions calmed down, she comforted her: "It will be fine now that you are here. Take care of yourself and everything will be fine."
She couldn't guarantee it for other places, but here, under Huo Yisheng's sphere of influence, she could guarantee that no innocent person would suffer any misfortune.
At the very least, I can have food to eat, see a doctor and get medicine.
Aunt Gu nodded repeatedly, expressing her gratitude.
Ye Shu returned to the camp. Perhaps influenced by Mr. Tian's family, she was in a very bad mood. At this moment, she missed Huo Yisheng very much and wished he could be by her side to accompany her.
