Chapter 109 - Redemption
Chapter 109: Redemption
Lin Suisui looked at Lu Ze. If it were anyone else, they would have been confused, but Lu Ze understood what she meant.
Lu Ze couldn’t help but feel heartache and admiration!
His heart ached for her because she had actually always been bearing the heavy and cruel past that others didn’t know about!
He was impressed that the little girl in front of him was actually so shrewd and enlightened.
“I saved people because I didn’t want to go against my conscience and neglect my duty as a doctor!
This doesn’t mean that I will forgive those people for their evil deeds!
I can save their lives temporarily, but it doesn’t mean that I’ll indulge those people for the rest of their lives!
I saved them, so I have to accept everything they do? What kind of twisted logic is that?!
Their evilness won’t make me forget the kindness and responsibility I should have. I hope I can save them before killing them!”
Lin Suisui spoke quickly and anxiously. Perhaps because she was too agitated, her words were a little incoherent, but she was sure that Lu Ze understood.
“In the future, I’ll kill them!” Lu Ze blurted out without hesitation.
This was indeed what he wanted!
She should just focus on saving people! Her kindness didn’t need to be tainted by those hypocritical and unbearably malicious people!
Lin Suisui blinked. She clearly didn’t expect Lu Ze to have such a reaction. For a moment, she didn’t know how to respond.
While she was in a daze, Mrs. Luo happened to walk in from outside. When she saw Lin Suisui sitting by the bonfire, she was momentarily stunned. Then, she couldn’t help but say in surprise, “Why are you up so early?”
“I still have to go over and take a look at them. Otherwise, I won’t be able to rest assured.” Lin Suisui looked up and explained to Mrs. Luo with a smile.
“Didn’t you say that the child was safely born yesterday? Why do you have to continue worrying about them?”
Mrs. Luo was a little puzzled and asked curiously.
“That woman had a difficult delivery, so the situation is a little dangerous.”
Lin Suisui briefly explained the woman’s situation, but this simple explanation still made Mrs. Luo’s expression change. “I see! That can’t be delayed! Giving birth is already dangerous to begin with!
Speaking of which, the situation was very strange. This woman was about to give birth, so why did the general still bring her along? Wasn’t this a form of torture to her?
Fortunately, you were here. If we didn’t have a doctor here, wouldn’t the child in her stomach…”
At this point, Mrs. Luo couldn’t help but shake her head and sigh. “How pitiful.”
With all those servants, she seemed like she was rich and noble, but in fact, everyone was suffering in different ways!
“I heard that the wife of the general was dissatisfied. This is their family matter, so it’s not our place to ask.” Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Suisui didn’t delay any longer. She put on her cloak and rushed out with Lu Ze to the big tent where Pei Qian and the others lived.
The situation was indeed as Lin Suisui had expected. It wasn’t too good, but at least it wasn’t that bad!
The woman woke up in the middle of the night last night. The pain from her wound made it impossible for her to rest peacefully!
According to Lin Suisui’s instructions, she couldn’t eat yet. She couldn’t even drink soup.
If she was really thirsty, she could only let the maidservants wipe her lips with drenched gauze.
The most troublesome thing now was that she suddenly began to feel hot. Her entire body was burning.
Lin Suisui came over and took her pulse. Next, she asked an old woman to get some ginseng and put it in the woman’s mouth. Then, she applied needles to a few acupuncture points to help ease her symptoms. At the same time, she didn’t forget to instruct a little girl to go out and get clean snow to wipe the woman’s body in order to cool her down.
There was no way to relieve her current physical condition with medicine. She could only use these methods to help bring down her high fever first!
As for the rest, it would depend on whether she could withstand it or not!
However, Lin Suisui knew that this was very difficult.
As a doctor, Lin Suisui could keenly sense the woman’s disappearing vitality.
Actually, Lin Suisui didn’t know what the little girl in front of her used to be like, but judging from her physical condition and her clothes, she could guess that before she came here, she must have been treated quite well by General Gao.
Therefore, when she needed to be cared for the most, General Gao’s heartless actions made her feel despair and embarrassment!
It was reasonable for the little girl to be baffled by the huge difference in treatment!
“Madam, I know you’re very sad and distressed now, but have you thought about what will happen to your child if you give up so easily?
I believe you know better than me how much the general hopes to have a son to carry on the family line!
If your child was a son, then even if you gave up now, he would still care about your child! But your child is a daughter!
If even you give up on her now, who will care about her?
She’s just been born now. She hasn’t had a sip of your milk yet. You haven’t kissed her little face or watched her grow up yet!
Are you really assured with throwing the daughter you risked your life to deliver to the general’s background, where she might never see the light of day?!”
Lin Suisui couldn’t care less about being tactful now.
She squatted down and leaned towards the woman’s ear as she whispered in a voice that was soft but urging.
She wanted to save them, but the woman had to cooperate with her! If she couldn’t even withstand this, then all her efforts would be in vain!
“You have to believe me. Since I was able to save your daughter’s life and your life, I definitely have a way for you to live the rest of your life peacefully!”
Lin Suisui couldn’t help but feel overjoyed when she saw that the woman’s fingers finally moved. She took the opportunity to continue whispering into the woman’s ear, “You haven’t seen your daughter yet, right? She looks like you. She’s very cute!
She’ll definitely be as beautiful as you when she grows up! Don’t you want to watch her grow up day by day?!
Children grow up very quickly. Their appearance practically changes every day. It’s a pity to miss even a single day of your child’s growth! Madam, you have to get better quickly. Otherwise, it’ll be a pity if you miss out on the chance to watch her grow!”
