Chapter 378: The Pitiful Boy and Girl
The girl was beaten up so badly. Madam Miao glanced at her, but she did not feel any regret or sorry for her. She only calmed down and rested for a while before propping herself up.
When Madam Miao saw that the girl’s leg was broken, a hint of annoyance appeared in her eyes. After standing up, she carried the unconscious girl into the house.
She was not so cold as to leave her outside.
The boy had already fainted on the ground due to his fever. Madam Miao returned and carried the boy into the house.
Great. The two children could go to the doctor together and save her a trip.
In the end, Madam Miao still had to leave the house overnight. She went to hire an old doctor closest to the alley in frustration.
The old doctor practiced by himself. His stall was small and he was not a doctor from a big medical center. Instead, he was a normal doctor among the commoners. Fortunately, this old doctor was really capable. His family had inherited good medical skills and he could treat girls and boys.
The old doctor went to the door in the darkness. In the end, he cleaned and bandaged the wound on the boy’s palm. Then, he prescribed some medicinal soup to reduce his fever and inflammation.
When he looked at the girl again, the old doctor was surprised by her injuries. However, the doctor thought that the girl had been beaten up outside. He did not expect that it was her mother who had beaten her up.
The old doctor revealed a pained expression and quickly treated the girl’s injuries. He applied an ointment that would disperse the bruises on her body from the beating. He touched the bones all over her body to see where her bones were injured. Then, he checked her pulse to see if she had any internal injuries.
In the end, he fixed the girl’s broken leg and applied an ointment.
The girl did not wake up at all. Her injuries were too serious and her entire body was too weak. She was even on the verge of death.
The old doctor took another look and felt that this would not do. He prescribed another life-saving medicine for the girl and finally told Madam Miao that the girl could not move her legs for a month. He would come back for a follow-up examination later. Then, he left.
The girl lay on the bed with her legs injured. She could not move in the future and had to rely on others to serve her.
Madam Miao did not do anything worse like throwing her out of the house. She only looked at her in annoyance before turning around and returning to her house to sleep.
The doctor had arrived in time. The boy’s body did not sustain any serious injuries. After taking the medicine, his temperature dropped the next morning.
The Kind Doctor had treated that girl from the farmer’s family last night and stayed at the government office. The next day, he had to treat patients the entire day. He could not return home yet.
After the boy woke up early in the morning, he felt dizzy and weak. He looked at his sister beside him and was shocked.
“Sister! Sister!”
The boy’s face was filled with panic. He leaned over and hugged the girl tightly. He shouted in panic, “Sister, don’t die!”
The girl’s legs were stiff and she had her eyes closed tightly. Her face was pale, and the boy thought that she was going to die.
The girl had been unconscious the entire night and had taken medicine. Although her injuries were still very serious, she somehow woke up and opened her eyes when the boy called her.
When she saw her younger brother’s tender and familiar face, the girl’s terrifying memories from last night resurfaced.
“Brother!”
No matter how responsible the girl was as an older sister, she was still very traumatized after facing the tragic incident last night.
