Chapter 15 Procurement

Granny Duan was obviously stunned for a moment, and subconsciously waved her hands, but Zhou Huilan had already walked to her bedside.

The old lady's hair was stuck to her face, and there was a thin layer of sweat on her cheeks. It was obvious that she had been holding back just now.

"I'll go find the doctor!" Zhou Huilan made a quick decision.

"No, no, I'll just take a nap and be fine."

"Instead of that old man from the daytime, I'll find another doctor to look at you." Granny Duan had an old grudge with the old man at the medical clinic, and Zhou Huilan also noticed it.

"Daughter, you really don't need to..."

"If you are sick, you must be treated. It is not good if you delay it for a long time." Zhou Huilan comforted Granny Duan and called Yaoyao in and told her to accompany the old lady.

She didn't go out immediately, but entered the kitchen.

The southwest corner of this yard is the toilet, and the southeast corner is the kitchen. They are all small houses built on the back. Compared with the imposing big house, they look like two blocks of tofu.

The stove and chopping boards were all kept clean, but in addition to a small half bag of sweet potatoes, there was only a jar of pickles in the entire kitchen.

Not to mention meat, not even half a fresh vegetable.

There was a small patch of green vegetables planted in the yard, which was well taken care of, but it was really only a small patch. Zhou Huilan spread her hands and covered most of the vegetable patch.

It seems that the life of a lonely old man is indeed difficult.

Zhou Huilan went out of the door without entering the house again. She had to go to the doctor and buy vegetables and meat. The old lady was sick and Yaoyao was young. She was not without money now. She definitely couldn't have pickles instead of sweet potatoes for dinner.

.

The sky has completely darkened.

As soon as Zhou Huilan went out, she noticed the drug store diagonally opposite. The light at the door of the drug store illuminated almost half of the street, but Zhou Huilan hesitated for a moment and still didn't go there.

She didn't know what the grudge was between Granny Duan and the old man in the pharmacy, but she had to respect the old man.

The vegetable market was on the street south of the Drum Tower. Granny Duan had told her that as for the nearest hospital besides the Chinese medicine shop, she could only ask someone else.

Bypassing the Drum Tower, the street to the south is brightly lit and lined with various food stalls, making it look like a full-scale snack street.

The smell of various grilled skewers and shabu-shabu went straight to the brain. Huilan Zhou felt that her mouth was watering, and her stomach became upset in response to the situation.

Only then did she remember that she seemed to have eaten two tea eggs this morning.

But touching her slightly deflated belly, Zhou Huilan immediately became full of energy again.

Unsurprisingly, the vegetable market has closed, and the dark doors inside are locked. Only a grain and oil seasoning shop on the street is still open. Zhou Huilan went in and bought five kilograms of white noodles and three kilograms of eggs, and then bought another

Some sesame oil, soy sauce and vinegar seasoning.

The landlady said that there is only the traditional Chinese medicine clinic on Songbai Street nearby, and there is a central hospital two streets to the south, but the doctors there may not be able to visit.

If it doesn't work, I can only go back and call 120.

Zhou Huilan planned to let Granny Duan eat something to cushion her before going to the hospital. She walked back quickly carrying large and small bags. She didn't notice someone standing in the shadows on the side of the road and bumped into him.

"Ouch!"

With Zhou Huilan's current tonnage, if she bumps into someone, the other person will be the unlucky one.

But Zhou Huilan felt like she didn't hit someone, but a telegraph pole. She felt pain from her forehead to her chest to her legs.

She staggered back a few steps. If the "telephone pole" hadn't pulled her, she would have fallen flat on her butt.

With the light from the door of the Chinese medicine shop, Zhou Huilan looked up and met a pair of dark eyes.

The owner of the eyes has three-dimensional facial features and is so handsome that people can't take their eyes away. The slightly slanted peach blossom eyes exude a sense of laziness. The faint fragrance of herbs in her breath makes Zhou Huilan's heart beat faster uncontrollably.

"Are you okay?" The man's voice was hoarse with laziness.

Zhou Huilan came back to her senses and took a step back. Then she saw clearly the man in front of her. He was tall and thin. He was actually the tall and thin man who removed Wang Jianye's arm at the entrance of the kindergarten in the evening.

"I'm fine." Zhou Huilan shook her head vigorously, put her hands together, and quickly grabbed the man's wrist, "Comrade, in the evening at the gate of the kindergarten at the Meat Factory, you took off the arm of a scumbag and saved me, do you remember?

?”

The man narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Chow Huilan's burly figure, "Remember." After all, although conditions are better these days, it is very rare for someone to have a physique like Chow Huilan's.

Just remember.

Being able to remove Wang Jianye's arm in an instant and put it back on again with two clicks, Zhou Huilan intuitively knew that this man knew something about medicine, "Comrade, can you set bones? There is an old man in my family who fell down and couldn't get out of bed today. Can you please trouble me?"

Come with me to see you? We’ll pay for the consultation!”

The man frowned even more tightly.

But Zhou Huilan didn't give him a chance to refute at all, and took him directly to the door of Granny Duan's house.

Because she was carrying something and dragging the man with her, Zhou Huilan struggled to squeeze into the small door and was stuck in the alley. She could only let go of the man, separate the things with her hands, take a deep breath and move in like a crab.

Finally reaching the end of the alley, Zhou Huilan raised her hand to open the door and latch it, but her huge body could not move at all. Just when she was so anxious that she was sweating profusely and couldn't think of anything to do, a hand with long knuckles stretched out from behind her neck.

The man's breath seemed to be behind her ears, which made Zhou Huilan's heart beat faster uncontrollably, but the hand didn't notice it, and with just a slight lift, the door latch fell down.

The small door opened, and the cool wind poured into the alley. Zhou Huilan took a few steps quickly as if to escape, "Doctor, please wait a moment, I will put the things in the kitchen and I will be back soon."

As soon as Zhou Huilan put things into the kitchen, Yaoyao ran out of the house when she heard the noise.

Hugging Zhou Huilan's thigh, "Mom, I'm hungry."

It was past seven o'clock. Usually at this time, Yaoyao would have had another dinner, take a shower and go to bed.

Zhou Huilan bent down and picked up her daughter, "Yao Yao is good..."

Before he could say a few words to comfort his daughter, the man walked towards the big house. Zhou Huilan was afraid that Granny Duan would be offended and followed him quickly.

"You and I haven't even spoken to each other about being entrusted by someone to be loyal. We just treat it as strangers. It's quite good." The man's words were incomprehensible, but Granny Duan's hand on the trousers loosened.

Zhou Huilan put down her daughter and hurried over. She saw the man pressing his fingers up her mother-in-law's calf in several places, causing her mother-in-law to lie on the bed in pain.

"The bone is fine, it must be dislocated."

"Then how should we treat it? Do we have to send it to the hospital?" Zhou Huilan doesn't understand medical skills, but she also understands that the bones of elderly people are brittle, and injuries to muscles and bones are more difficult to treat.

"No, I'll go back and get two bottles of medicated oil and just reset it."

After the man finished speaking, he nodded slightly to Granny Duan and walked out. When he saw the aggrieved Yaoyao hiding behind the door, his heart suddenly felt soft, "The old lady's legs are fine, but if she continues to be hungry, she might have to be sent to the hospital.
