Chapter 158 Blood-sucking Debt
"Wow..." Qin Yanru couldn't help crying.
At this moment, Qin Jingru suddenly thought: "Second sister, doesn't Doctor Chen live nearby? He is a very skilled doctor, maybe he can save our father."
"That's right, Doctor Chen has outstanding medical skills and can definitely save my dad!" Qin Yanru seemed to have caught a ray of hope and hurried to the backyard to find Chen Mu.
When he knocked on Chen Mu's door, he opened it and saw Qin Yanru. He wanted to ask her what she was doing there. But Qin Yanru knelt down on her knees and said, "Doctor Chen, please save my father. I am willing to do anything as long as my father can live. Doctor Chen, please help me!" She kowtowed repeatedly while speaking.
Seeing this, Chen Mu hurried forward to help Qin Yanru up. "Don't be like this, this method is not appropriate now." His eyes swept across her broken forehead, and he realized that she was really begging.
Then Qin Yanru painfully recounted her father's injuries and near death, crying for Chen Mu to help. Facing Qin Yanru's sobbing, even Chen Mu couldn't help but feel sad, she was indeed very filial.
"Come home with me." Chen Mu said.
Hearing this, Qin Yanru mistakenly thought that he wanted her to leave, and was about to kneel down again. "Doctor Chen, I said I would go with you. I will go with you now, not to shut you out."
Chen Mu sighed: "What I mean is, I'm taking you back on my bike, I'm not chasing you away."
"Thank you, Doctor Chen!" Qin Yanru was about to kneel down before she finished her words of gratitude, but was stopped by Chen Mu in time. He picked up the medicine box, closed the door, and took out the bicycle. Qin Yanru followed closely behind him.
It was already dark and there were no cars, so Qin Jingru could only stay overnight and return the next day. In addition, Chen Mu was not able to travel long distances with her bicycle, so they had to stay temporarily at Qin's parents-in-law's house.
When they got outside, Chen Mu asked Qin Yanru to sit on the back seat, and then he rode very fast. The speed was far beyond common sense, almost twice as fast as an ordinary bicycle, and he moved forward like lightning.
Holding on tightly to Chen Mu's waist, Qin Yanru pressed against his back and felt the lightning speed, which surprised her. Although Chen Mu deliberately slowed down a bit, her body was still shaking violently, so she had to hold on to Chen Mu tightly to avoid falling.
"Doctor Chen, can you ride slower? I'm scared." Qin Yanru requested.
"Hold me." Chen Mu replied briefly and calmly.
However, their speed slowed down a bit. Chen Mu often visited Red Star Commune, so Qinjia Village was not unfamiliar to him. The bicycle journey, which originally took nearly four hours, took him half an hour to reach the entrance of Qinjia Village.
"I have arrived."
“Ouch… so fast!”
"Where is your home?" Chen Mu asked.
"The small courtyard on the left in front is my home." Qin Yanru replied.
Chen Mu rode his bicycle over and soon arrived at the gate of Qin Yanru's courtyard. The courtyard was quite large, covering an area of about 300 square meters, and there were many houses inside. Although life in the countryside was difficult now, once the policy was adjusted and the houses needed to be demolished, their family would become real landlords.
"Mom." Qin Yanru shouted as she entered the room.
"Oh, Yanru, you're home, woooo..." Qin Yanru's mother couldn't help crying as soon as she saw her.
"Mom, I brought Doctor Chen here. He is very skilled in medicine and will definitely be able to cure Dad's illness." Qin Yanru said firmly.
"Is Doctor Chen here? Come on, let him in." Doctor Chen's reputation was like a lifeline. To Qin's mother, he was like a savior and his reputation was known throughout several nearby communes. He was a recognized miracle doctor.
However, since the clinic opened, he no longer provides free medical services. Everyone still feels that it is better when there is no clinic. He comes to visit regularly one to two weeks every week, and each time his medicine is effective.
Chen Mu strode in and ordered, "Where is the patient? Take me to see him quickly."
"Doctor Chen, come in."
After entering the room, he saw Qin Yanru's father, Uncle Qin, lying on the bed in pain, his face pale and his breath barely alive.
He quickly checked Uncle Qin's condition and confirmed that he had several broken vertebrae, five broken ribs, and massive internal bleeding. He was able to survive to this point entirely on his last breath.
If we delay any longer, I'm afraid there will be no way to save the situation.
"Ms. Qin, how is your father?" Chen Mu said seriously.
"The spine is broken, many ribs are broken, and there is a lot of internal bleeding. The situation is very serious." He explained to Qin Yanru: "Whether he can recover is not yet determined. It depends on the results of treatment. It will take at least about a year to recover."
With a bang,
Qin Yanru knelt down to Chen Mu again and cried, "As long as my father can be cured, I am willing to do anything."
Chen Mu hurriedly helped her up and said with concern: "Okay, stop kowtowing at every turn. I didn't say to give up on treatment, it's just that the recovery period will be a little longer." Chen Mu was somewhat distressed by this kind of person who would kneel down when he was excited.
Then he heard another woman ask, it was Aunt Qin San: "Is there really any hope for my man?"
"Don't worry, he can already be treated." Chen Mu took out a pill and asked Uncle Qin to take it, then disinfected it with a silver needle and performed acupuncture to keep his heartbeat flowing.
Then he dealt with the five broken ribs. The bone injuries were relatively good, but the spine was much more difficult. He needed some time and tools. Of course, if he could really treat everything with his hands, he could recover on the spot - but this was just an assumption. With caution, Chen Mu used correction methods and tools to gradually repair the broken spine.
He took out the black jade bone-setting ointment, applied it evenly on Uncle Qin's broken bone, and then wrapped it with a splint.
"Pour me a basin of hot water and bring a hot towel." Chen Mu ordered.
Qin Yanru immediately stood up and did as she was told.
Soon, hot water, a basin and a wet towel were ready. "Next, I will help him drain the water in his body. He may bleed from all seven orifices, but don't worry, as long as the blood is drained, Uncle will wake up." Chen Mu explained.
Qin Yanru and her mother kept nodding to show their understanding.
Then, Chen Mu used silver needles and real-life techniques to clean up Uncle Qin's internal bleeding. Soon, Uncle Qin's mouth and nose continued to bleed, and Chen Mu focused on clearing the stagnant blood clots.
Then, he gave Uncle Qin some warm water to rinse his mouth. After being busy for about two hours, Chen Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he confirmed that Uncle Qin was out of danger.
"Doctor Chen, how is my father now?" Qin Yanru asked again.
"The danger has passed and he will wake up in about ten minutes. However, the fixed equipment on his body will remain in place for the time being and will not be removed until at least a month later. During this month, he needs to eat food that is easy to chew, and the follow-up treatment will be decided based on his recovery condition after a month." Chen Mu replied.
"That's great, Dr. Chen, you are really a great benefactor to our family. Ru'er, thank Dr. Chen quickly!" Mrs. Qin quickly reminded her daughter to salute.
"Don't, don't mind it, aunt. As a doctor, my duty is to save lives. Why do I have to do this? Alas..." Chen Mu was a little amused and hurriedly dissuaded the mother and daughter who were kneeling to thank him.
As expected, more than ten minutes later, Uncle Qin woke up.
"Am I... dead? Where is this place?" Uncle Qin, who had just woken up, thought he was at the gates of hell.
"Dad, you're okay. Doctor Chen saved you." Seeing her father wake up and apparently out of danger, Qin Yanru's heart was filled with joy and she could not contain her excitement.
Uncle Qin was a little surprised to hear that he was not dead, but he was a little dizzy at the moment, so he didn't think too much about it and fell asleep again immediately.
After checking again and making sure everything was fine, Chen Mu took some herbs from the medicine box, sorted them out and handed them to them: "Let your father boil this medicine tomorrow morning when he wakes up. I don't bring many herbs with me, so go get some medicine after you finish this one, and just follow this prescription."
"Doctor Chen...I don't know how to thank you...I..."
"Okay, I understand. I'm just doing my job. If there's anything else, please come find me in the city." Chen Mu said.
"It's too dark tonight, Dr. Chen, you can stay at home overnight." Mrs. Qin made an invitation.
"Mom, Doctor Chen hasn't even eaten yet, it's all because of my dad." Qin Yanru quickly added.
"Oh, I almost forgot. The food was prepared a long time ago, but it's all cold. I'll go heat it up. I'm so sorry, Doctor Chen."
Chen Mu smiled and said, "It's okay, just make do with a meal."
In fact, Mrs. Qin wanted to prepare more, but unfortunately there was no food at home. But Chen Mu didn't care. He had tasted all kinds of food and declined Mrs. Qin's kindness.
After Uncle Qin recovered from his diet, Qin Yanru also joined him for dinner, but she was a little embarrassed. She wanted to repay the favor of saving her father but could not find any other way, so she could only repay him with her body, because she knew that this was an unforgettable great favor.
It was getting late in the evening and it was inconvenient to go back to Chengli, so Aunt Qin suggested that Chen Mu stay here. She had several rooms in her house, so she arranged for Chen Mu to stay in the room of her eldest daughter Qin Jinyu, after all, Jinyu had not returned yet.
Entering the room, Chen Mu saw that it was very tidy. However, Qin Yanru still cleaned it up carefully. "This is my sister's bedroom. I have changed the sheets. You are welcome."
Chen Mu secretly approved in his heart. The warmth in this house seemed to warm people's hearts.
"It's okay, you don't have to work hard." Chen Mu said with a smile.
"I..." Qin Yanru stopped talking, and finally left without saying anything. Chen Mu closed the door and was surprised to find that there was no bolt on the door. Shortly after dark, everything around him was dark. Chen Mu turned off the lights and lay on the bed. The quilt exuded the unique fragrance of a young girl. He closed his eyes and prepared to fall asleep.
Time passed silently, and suddenly, there was a creaking sound, and the door was slowly pushed open. Chen Mu understood instantly, through the moonlight, he saw a slender woman stepping into the house, it could not be anyone else except Qin Yanru.
Chen Mu was startled when he saw Qin Yanru huddled up and seemed to be about to get into bed. Although he had a good impression of Qin Yanru - beautiful, charming, and a filial child, she was Qin Huairu's cousin after all. If something really happened, Qin Huairu would probably stick around like a plaster and come back to suck blood.
Thinking of this, Chen Mu hurriedly stopped her and covered Qin Yanru's mouth with the small exclamation that almost came out, "Don't make a sound."
Qin Yanru, who was held in his arms, nodded silently.
