Chapter 25: Chapter 25: Encounter, Reunion (24)
Medical staff were already extremely busy, and the chaos made them even busier, barely touching the ground. Tu Hengsha couldn’t help much, only able to move some things and fetch water.
When going downstairs to get water, she found that the place was already bustling with activity. In a short time, an empty classroom had been cleared, mats laid out on the floor—all pieced together by the community. Some people carried, others shouldered, moving the injured soldiers from the field into the room. An elderly woman even assisted by holding a soldier’s wounded arm and leg, repeatedly saying, "Careful, careful..."
At first, the soldiers refused to be carried, but grandma, touching the young soldier’s face with a smile, said warmly, "Silly child, what’s there to be polite about? You all are younger than my grandson. To me, you’re just like my own grandsons! When the flood came, it was you who carried us all out. Now, it’s our turn to carry you! It’s only right!"
"Grandma..." the bashful young soldier’s eyes reddened.
"Hey!" Grandma replied promptly, "Once you call me Grandma, we’re family! No more politeness with Grandma! When the water recedes, I’ll make you some delicious food! Come on, let’s go inside! Don’t get a sunburn!"
Witnessing this scene, Tu Hengsha’s lips curled into a gentle smile, her eyes brimming with tears once more.
Perhaps because she had not had an easy life since childhood, she never cried over hardships, but her tear ducts couldn’t resist the steaming of such warmth.
She was easily moved.
She hurried to the vehicle to get water. When she pulled on the door, it opened—no one had locked it!
She looked around, not seeing him anywhere and guessed he was probably fine, so she took the water and headed back to the second floor.
She and the female student coordinated silently, giving the patients water with their medicine, then cleaning their hands and feet with alcohol.
Liu Dawei awkwardly took the medicine himself, adamantly refusing to let her touch his hands.
"Sister, it’s dirty..."
Tu Hengsha stared at him in silence.
Liu Dawei’s gaze darted away, his face flushed with embarrassment, "It’s really dirty. It might be contagious!"
"Don’t believe those nonsense tales!" Tu Hengsha flared up, "My friend has the same symptoms as you, and I’ve been taking care of him for a whole day and night! If it were contagious, I’d have caught it by now! You recover faster this way!"
Liu Dawei’s hand was forcibly taken by Tu Hengsha, revealing the fingertips all cracked, the open wounds mixed with dirt and sand.
"Just... just a minor injury, didn’t show it to a doctor..." Liu Dawei became somewhat stammering in embarrassment.
Tu Hengsha didn’t say anything, diligently cleaning his hand with alcohol, blowing on it as she went, "Say if it hurts."
"What’s there to hurt!" Liu Dawei laughed with lips cracked pale, anticipating Tu Hengsha’s glare, he hurriedly added, "Actually, I used to be afraid of pain too. Back home, I was even scared of getting shots, but after joining the army, I stopped fearing pain! Became a true man!" he said with pride.
Tu Hengsha looked at his slightly childish expression and smiled at him. Liu Dawei didn’t understand why she was smiling, but he chuckled along, looking foolish.
Before she knew it, Tu Hengsha had finished wiping Liu Dawei clean and moved on to another sick soldier. By the time she was done, night had nearly fallen.
After taking the medicine, the three patients stopped vomiting, and by nightfall, all three had broken their fevers. Tu Hengsha and the female student finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, just at that moment, the frantic shouts of a man could be heard from outside, "Doctor! Doctor! Doctor, save my life!"
The voice sounded familiar, and Tu Hengsha exchanged a glance with the female student.
Shortly after, the shouting reached the door, and Wang’s figure appeared, bursting in and asking, "Where’s the doctor? Is the doctor here?"
