Allure of a Country Maiden
Chapter 755 - 753

Chapter 755: 753

Xiao’er and the woman were not paying attention to what the doctor was saying, He Lanzhi was making sarcastic remarks on the side, but they were too concerned to take any notice of her.

"Madam, no, you’re doing it wrong, let me do it!" Xiao’er saw that the woman’s actions were incorrect. Disregarding Shangguan Xuanyi’s displeasure, she knew saving a life was paramount.

The woman quickly made way, trusting Xiao’er because she and another had risked their own lives to save her child from the water. She believed they would certainly do their best to save her child! Plus, they had proven their capabilities when they rushed through earlier; wouldn’t it be normal for capable people to possess some unusual lifesaving methods?

Shangguan Xuanyi glanced at the woman: how foolish, she couldn’t even save her own daughter.

But this time, he didn’t stop Xiao’er, although he felt downhearted.

Xiao’er quickly knelt down, with one hand she placed her thumb and index finger over the patient’s nostrils, tilted the patient’s head back as far as possible to keep her airway open, took a deep breath, and began to...

After performing artificial respiration several times, the little girl began breathing again on her own.

Xiao’er sighed a breath of relief.

By this time, the little boy Zhao Yong had saved had already regained consciousness.

"He’s awake! He’s really awake!" Chen Xiang seeing the boy awake, happily exclaimed, putting a blanket over him: "Hold the quilt tight, don’t catch a cold!"

Then, Chen Peng put a cloak on the little girl.

The onlookers were amazed to see such a strange method actually revive someone.

"Unbelievable, this is truly bringing back the dead! Even breathless people can be revived!"

"That’s amazing! I should have paid closer attention earlier, so I could use this method in the future if someone falls into the water!"

"Yes, yes, yes. This lifesaving method seems not that difficult, I think I can do it."

...

He LanZhi closed her mouth, watching Xiao’er with disbelief spread across her face.

Seeing her son awaken, the woman rushed to hold him: "Kang’er, you scared your mother to death!"

The first thing Kang’er said after waking up was, "Mom, sister, where’s my sister?"

The woman wiped her tears and pointed: "Your sister is over there."

"The little girl is awake." Xiao’er also said with a smile at this point.

The woman, hearing this, rushed to check on her daughter. Seeing her truly awake, she finally allowed herself a deep breath! She held her daughter as tears streamed down her face more profusely.

As she thought, trusting these two kind-hearted people was the right choice! She had checked her daughter’s breath earlier and found that the girl had stopped breathing, but this young woman still saved her from the brink of death!

"Thank you, you two are indeed benevolent, lifesavers. You saved my children, otherwise I don’t know what to do." The woman tearfully said to Xiao’er.

"Don’t thank us yet. You should quickly have the doctor check on the two children! I only have some basic knowledge of first aid, I don’t know how to prescribe medicines." Xiao’er modestly and respectfully said to the doctor, "Doctor, I need your help."

Through Xiao’er’s modest words and given that the lifesaving method she used was indeed effective, the doctor set aside his prior discontent, and promptly came forward to check on the children.

Shangguan Xuanyi came to Xiao’er’s side, picking up her cloak and putting it around her: "Are you cold? Let’s go back and change your clothes."

Although the weather was not cold after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the wind by the seaside was strong and their clothes were wet. They could easily catch a cold in these conditions.

Xiao’er nodded, and they left.

Everyone was engrossed in watching the doctor, checking if the two children were truly okay, and didn’t notice their departure.

Only He Gaopeng and He Lanzhi watched their retreating figures, their eyes reflecting a mix of emotions.

When the woman pulled herself together, she noticed that Xiao’er and the others had disappeared. She hadn’t even asked them who they were and where they lived. She wanted to properly thank them!

When the doctor had finished examining the two children and written out their prescriptions, he wanted to ask Xiao’er about the first-aid method she used earlier, but they were nowhere to be found.

In Hang County, where water is everywhere, many people drown each year. If he could learn the method from earlier, he might be able to save some lives. He asked around, and none of the people present knew them. He regretted not having paid more attention earlier.

After Xiao’er and Shangguan Xuanyi returned to the carriage, they quickly entered an empty space.

After Xiao’er had changed her clothes, Shangguan Xuanyi began to wipe her mouth with a wet handkerchief.

Xiao’er didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, "Okay, I’ve already rinsed my mouth."

Shangguan Xuanyi paid no heed, still wiping her lips non-stop.

He didn’t press too hard, and didn’t hurt Xiao’er, Xiao’er sat there, letting him help.

Shangguan Xuanyi changed the water five times, washed the handkerchief countless times, and had Xiao’er rinse her mouth over and over again more than ten times before he stopped.

Although he didn’t press too hard while cleaning her mouth, Xiao’er’s lips and the corners of her mouth were rubbed red.

Xiao’er was not amused: She would never perform artificial respiration on others again! From now on, she would bring Yang Liu with her, let them do this kind of thing! She couldn’t bear Shangguan Xuanyi’s obsessiveness anymore!

The two left the empty space and sat in the carriage.

"Brother Shangguan, my lips are almost rubbed raw by you," complained Xiao’er, touching her lips.

Shangguan Xuanyi heard this, leaned down to kiss her lips, jokingly with a hint of seriousness, "Next time, I won’t wipe, I’ll just peel off the skin!"

Xiao’er covered her mouth in fright after hearing this, "Don’t worry, it will never happen again, I’ve learned my lesson this time."

Even in her last life, she hadn’t cleaned her mouth as many times as today, she wouldn’t dare do it again.

She wasn’t a man, she didn’t understand why Shangguan Xuanyi cared so much!

"Good to know!" Shangguan Xuanyi nodded in affirmation.

"The first aid method I used earlier, I think it could be taught to the imperial doctors at the Imperial Hospital, and then shared with the public. Although it can’t guarantee that everyone can be saved every time, saving one more person is a good thing, right?"

Shangguan Xuanyi heard this and fell silent. This method of chest compressions and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation might not be accepted by everyone. It was different because these were children, people wouldn’t care, but what if it was a woman whom Zhao Yong saved?

This method would absolutely not be accepted by society. Reputation was extremely important, otherwise why would some people chose death to protect their honor?

If a girl was saved this way by a man in public, those with a fiery temperament might prefer to die again!

Shangguan Xuanyi thought about it and said, "This is a good thing and should be promoted. However, ..."

Shangguan Xuanyi shared his thoughts.

"Even so, I think that physicians and doctors should be aware of this and should promote it in the clinic as well. Saving one more life is still a life saved." Xiao’er thought for a moment and said.

Shangguan Xuanyi nodded in agreement and didn’t say anything more.

Life was indeed more important than reputation.
