Chapter 155: Life is saved
"Where is the child? How is he?" Old Man Shi saw his son and walked over to ask anxiously.
Shi Yong: "The doctor is treating..."
"Uncle Shi, don't worry. The doctor is treating the child." Lin Youcai saw Old Man Lin and Old Lady Wang, "Dad, Mom, why are you here? It's so late..."
Old Lady Wang: "I don't know how the child is doing. How can we sleep?"
Old Man Lin: "Where's the child?"
Lin Youcai: "Over there, let's go over there!"
Half an hour later, the doctor took out the injection and Shi Tao woke up slowly with a frown on his brow.
The nurse opened the door and went out: "The child is awake, the parents are here."
Old Man Shi stood up excitedly and asked, "Is it cured?"
Nurse: "Other family members, please wait patiently. The doctor is still treating the patient."
Lin Hongmei took Shen Xianglan's hand and said, "Fourth sister-in-law, come in with me?"
Shen Xianglan looked at the nurse: "Is it okay?"
Nurse: "Only two people can go in, and don't disturb the doctor while he's treating patients."
Shi Yong: "Then you and your sister-in-law go in."
The two went in and the doctor told them about the child's condition and the treatment plan he gave.
Shen Xianglan knew something about the treatment of colic, and patted Lin Hongmei soothingly, "Doctor, I'll treat it the way you say."
Shi Tao was in a daze, sometimes conscious and sometimes unconscious. The doctor asked two people to stand by and watch him so that they could lend a hand when the time came.
The nurse brought warm water, put it aside, and lifted the quilt to expose the child's hands and feet. The doctor dipped his hands in warm water and applied it to the child's knees and wrists. In the blink of an eye, purple and black spots appeared on the skin. The nurse handed over a needle, and the doctor pierced it with the needle, and bad blood came out.
The doctor felt the child's hands and feet and found them warm. He then pricked a finger near the nail with a needle and let out a few drops of blood. The nurse wiped the blood off the child's hands and feet and covered him with a blanket.
Doctor: "The child is not conscious enough yet, so we will give him an enema first. After the enema, the child is still in unbearable pain, so we will induce vomiting, scraping, and acupuncture for him."
Lin Hongmei nodded quickly.
Shen Xianglan: “Okay.”
The doctor said to the nurse, "Prepare for the enema."
The nurse said to Lin Hongmei: "The child's parents need to come and help."
Lin Hongmei nodded quickly, "Okay, okay."
The nurse turned around to bring the enema materials, and then went to get a chamber pot and toilet paper.
Shen Xianglan went out and called Shi Yong in.
Men are stronger. After the nurse has given his son an enema, Shi Yong can hold his son and sit on the toilet, helping the child to defecate.
Shen Xianglan went out and told everyone about the situation. She looked at Old Lady Wang and Old Man Lin and said, "Dad, Mom, Uncle Shi, you guys go back to sleep! There's a doctor here. We're here. Xiao Tao will be fine."
Lin Youcai: "Yes, you three old men should go back to sleep! Take care of your health! Come back to see you tomorrow morning! Big brother, you should go back to sleep too. We are here. Go back and tell everyone so that everyone can sleep more peacefully."
Lin Youfu thought about it and realized that they couldn't help much. "Dad, Mom, Uncle Shi, let's go back to sleep! We'll come back tomorrow morning! The doctor said it's nothing serious!"
Old Lady Wang: "I brought money, have you paid?"
Old Man Shi: "My dear in-laws, I can't do that. I'll go home and get the money."
Lin Youcai: "No hurry, no hurry, we've told the nurse that we'll pay tomorrow. Xiao Tao has to stay in the hospital for a few days! Uncle Shi can come and pay tomorrow, that's fine."
Lin Youcai looked at the time on his electronic bracelet. It was 22pm. Time passed quickly. "It's getting late. Go back to bed! Uncle Shi, don't worry. The doctor can cure Xiao Tao's illness. If you take good care of yourself, they can take care of the child with peace of mind!"
Old Man Lin pulled Old Man Shi out and said, "You still don't believe me if I have talent! Go back and have a good rest, so that Hongmei and Shi Yong can take care of the child with peace of mind."
The group came in a hurry and went back in a hurry.
Lin Youfu sent Old Man Shi home, watched him go in, and then drove the ox cart to the yard of the fourth brother's house. Standing outside the yard, he could see that the lights were still on in the yard.
Lin Youfu shouted at the top of his voice: "Wen boy, Su girl."
After a while, the gate opened a crack and three heads popped out. Lin Xianwen was at the top, Lin Zisu was in the middle, and Dahei was at the bottom.
Lin Xianwen: "Uncle, how is Xiao Tao?"
Lin Zisu: "Are you feeling better?"
Dahei: “Woof woof woof!”
Lin Youfu: "He's better now. The doctor is still treating him. You two should go to sleep first and don't wait for your parents."
Old Man Lin stuck his head out of the carriage and said, "Lock the front and rear doors!"
Old Lady Wang: "Don't open the door casually!"
The two siblings said: "Grandpa, grandma, I understand. Good night."
Dahei: “Woof woof!”
Lin Youfu drove to the gate of his yard, dropped off his parents, and the three brothers went to Lin Lizheng's house to return the ox cart. Their own ox cart was left at the hospital for the fourth brother and his wife to use, and they rode back in the ox cart of the Lizheng's house.
Lin Youfu returned the ox cart and told Lin Benshu about the situation. The three of them walked for more than ten minutes and returned to their own yard to sleep.
The adults and children in the yard were still awake, so the younger ones went to bed first. Old Man Lin and Old Lady Wang explained the situation and told everyone to go back to their rooms and sleep. They had to get up early to go to school tomorrow and work in the afternoon.
Shi Tao, who was at Qingshui Hospital, regained consciousness after having an enema to clear the feces in his intestines.
The nurse brought over a bowl of medicine. Lin Hongmei took it and fed her son the medicine, sip by sip, with a spoon.
Shen Xianglan told Lin Hongmei and Shi Yong, "You must listen to the doctor's instructions and don't do whatever you want. Ask if you don't understand, and ask if you are hesitant. If there is anything, tell your family and discuss it together.
As for this enema, don’t underestimate it. Do it randomly at home in the future! Enema can kill people. If you don’t do it properly, something serious will happen!
Also, don’t feed your child just because you feel bad for him or want him to go hungry! The doctor specifically told me not to feed him tomorrow and wait and see how he does! The child needs to be taken care of for at least eight or ten days...”
Shen Xianglan told them many cases where adults did not listen to doctors and fed their children, which worsened their children's conditions and killed them. There were also many people who did not listen to doctors and acted on their own, killing themselves and their families.
Lin Youcai added fuel to the fire, scaring the two men so much that they shook their heads and waved their hands, determined not to do anything rash and to listen to the doctor.
After Shi Tao's condition stabilized, the nurse used a stretcher to send him from the outpatient emergency room to the inpatient department.
Lin Youcai: "We are going back now. We will come again tomorrow morning. You guys just stay in the ward and take care of Xiao Tao. If you have any problem, call the doctor. There are doctors on duty day or night. Don't be embarrassed to call them!"
"Okay, you guys go back and rest." Shi Yong said as he stood up and walked them out of the ward.
Lin Hongmei: "Be careful on the road!"
"Don't send me off, just go back!" Lin Youcai pushed Shi Yong back. The two walked to the hospital parking yard and drove the carriage back.
After leaving the hospital, it was very dark outside. Shen Xianglan turned on the flashlight to light the way while Lin Youcai drove the car.
By the time the two returned to Qingshui No. 3 Community outside the city, it was already past 12 o'clock in the evening.
Knocking on the yard door, "Woof woof woof!" Dahei came out from the main room and ran straight to the yard door.
"Dahei, it's me, stop shouting! Everyone is asleep, don't wake them up!" Lin Youcai yawned and shouted to Dahei inside the door.
Lin Xianwen rubbed his eyes, opened the door and came out. When he heard his father's voice, he hurried over to open the door.
After the ox cart entered the yard, Lin Xianwen quickly locked the gate and asked, "Mom, how is Shi Tao?"
"His condition is stable now. The doctor's treatment is very effective. You should go to bed soon!" Shen Xianglan said as she went to wash her hands and prepared to go back to her room to sleep.
"Oh, why are you awake? Go back to sleep!" Lin Youcai patted his chest and was startled when he saw the head sticking out of the car window.
"It's good that it's stable. Go to sleep peacefully. Good night everyone, sweet dreams!" Lin Zisu yawned and closed the car window.
