Chapter 239 Emergency Treatment at the Medical Center
Wen Luozhi looked towards the door and, sure enough, saw Zou Ersheng standing there like a door god.
Hmm, he seems much more reliable than usual. He scared away several beggars who were lingering at the door.
He's come three times this afternoon, not bad! The wine and food weren't wasted.
"Are we having chicken legs again today?" she asked, pinching Zou Sheng's chubby cheeks.
Zou Sheng shook his head happily and said, "I won't eat today. Later, my brother will take me to the Dessert House for fried chicken and fries."
As he spoke, he licked his lips, which amused Wen Luozhi greatly.
This chubby little boy is so adorable! His brother probably uses all the extra money he earns to buy him food.
When it was almost time, Zou Ersheng came in and saw Wen Luozhi feeding her younger brother.
Upon closer inspection, the contents of that plate were none other than the strawberries that had been all the rage in town these past few days.
He was startled; those rare items weren't cheap! He knew his younger brother's appetite better than anyone.
This meal will cost them hundreds of coins!
"Anzi, we're leaving." He walked over, took out a piece of silver from his pocket, and placed it on the table, looking slightly embarrassed. "We've caused trouble for Boss Wen."
Wen Luozhi immediately understood when she noticed his gaze lingering on the strawberries. She picked up the silver coin and stuffed it into Zou An's hand, saying, "You're so sweet-talking, this is for you."
What girl doesn't like being called a fairy? Others may not know, but she certainly likes it!
Zou Ersheng quickly waved his hand, "No, Mr. Wen, that won't do! It's not cheap!"
Although he used to take advantage of others, and often at great expense, he still had some sense of shame, and besides, his father had given him instructions.
Wen Luozhi stuffed the remaining large strawberries from the plate into Zou An's chubby little hands, two in each hand, just right.
"It's nothing special that we grow our own food; let him have some to eat."
She had already sold the first batch of ripe fruit to Yan Feng, but she didn't feel comfortable asking him how much he would resell it for per kilogram.
Others might find it strange, but she didn't. There were several plots of land on Chicken Head Mountain!
Zou An ate with relish, knowing that no money was accepted, and smiled as he spoke to Wen Luozhi.
Not wanting to interrupt, Zou Ersheng waited for a while before Zou An took his hand and walked away, turning back to look at him every few steps.
Once outside, Zou An tilted his head back and angrily questioned him, "Big brother, did you take money from the fairy sister before?"
Don't let his young age fool you, he's quick-witted. Extra money? He knows how! His brother can squeeze a quick buck out of anyone he meets.
"What?! Look at how clever she is, how could I possibly knock her down?" Zou Ersheng touched his nose guiltily.
At worst, he can just bring his people here three times a morning from now on!
But to be fair, this small business owner is really generous; he just spent the money he got last time not long ago.
Zou Ancai didn't believe him and pulled him along quickly, saying, "Hurry up, brother, if we're late, everything at the Dessert House will be sold out."
The two brothers happened to be walking to the entrance of Ban Ri Xian when, by sheer coincidence, Qian San'er, who had just seen his friend off, overheard their conversation.
"Pah!" He spat on the ground, feeling incredibly unlucky! He could run into someone going to that blond girl's shop just by seeing someone off.
His friend, who was carrying a huge pile of pastries, chuckled and said, "Don't be like that, San'er. Let the master baker come up with some new ideas."
"The desserts from Miaomiao House are really good."
He tried everything in that shop, and every day when new products came out, he would have someone buy them and take them home.
The pastries were delicious, beautiful, and reasonably priced. If it weren't for our friendship, he probably wouldn't even spend half a day here.
Mid-Autumn Festival is just around the corner, and he heard that some people are going to release mooncake gift boxes. He needs to find out more about it.
When the time comes, it would be impressive to buy a few to give to relatives and friends, wouldn't it?
He picked up his things and left, and Qian San'er snorted coldly at his retreating figure.
Of course he knows it's good, otherwise why would he have sent people to learn it before?
If Ah Da and Ah Er were still around, they could at least replicate something pretty much.
"Half a day of leisure, half a day of leisure," he thought for a while, squinting his eyes.
Could it be that there's something wrong with the name of his shop? He's really getting more and more idle... business isn't doing well these days.
Since Wen Zizhong was scheduled for a follow-up appointment the next day but was unable to move, Wen Luozhi went to pick up Jun Qianzi before Jun'an Hall closed.
A crowd had gathered at the entrance of the clinic, creating a noisy scene, and no one knew what had happened.
Mo Li was small, and when she pushed through the crowd and came out again, she was with Yun Hua.
As soon as Yunhua saw Wen Luozhi, she burst into tears, saying, "What should I do, Sister Luozhi? There's a little baby inside who's dying!"
"He has something stuck in his throat, and his master can't get it out no matter what he tries."
Yunhua snuggled into her arms, her little hands still wiping away tears.
He hadn't dared to tell his master he was scared while inside, for fear of disturbing him, but he couldn't help himself when he saw someone he knew.
Wen Luozhi frowned, offered him a few words of comfort, and told Mo Li to take him to the carriage to calm him down.
She went through the back door to the clinic, where Jun Qianzi was already covered in sweat.
The little child on the examination bed looked to be only five or six years old, and his bluish-purple face, due to difficulty breathing, looked extremely frightening.
Unfortunately, the child's mother was wailing and crying nearby, which annoyed her.
"Alright, stop howling! Everyone, get out! Don't disturb Doctor Jun!"
Jun Qianzi looked up when she heard the voice and saw that it was her. She gave her a grateful look.
He's trying to figure something out here. The child's family keeps crying, and he's having a real headache because they don't believe him.
Wen Luozhi chased everyone out of the clinic and closed the door.
The onlookers outside started chattering, "Oh dear, Doctor Jun is in big trouble now!"
"Oh no! That child looks like he's going to die! He shouldn't have been treated in the first place!"
"Alas! Even so, how could Doctor Jun bear to do such a thing? A doctor's heart is full of compassion!"
Yunhua, who was in the carriage, cried even harder when he heard them say that. Mo Li patted his back to comfort him, "It's okay, Sister Luozhi will definitely have a way once she goes in!"
For some reason, he dared to trust her unconditionally. When she came in, she said it was nothing, so it was nothing.
Inside the clinic, just as Jun Qianzi was about to shake her head, Wen Luozhi picked up the child from the examination bed.
"Luo Zhi! You..." He was startled and tried to stop her, but Wen Luo Zhi had already picked up the doll.
"Yunhua told me that he had something stuck in his throat, and if it wasn't removed soon, it would be too late!"
After saying that, she performed five Heimlich abdominal thrusts under Jun Qianzi's astonished gaze, finally getting the stuff out of the child's throat.
The half-eaten hawthorn fell to the ground, and the little child immediately burst into tears, crying, "Waaah! Waaah! Mommy! I want my mommy!"
Only after Jun Qianzi nodded did the doorkeeper dare to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, the baby's mother rushed in, snatched the child from Wen Luozhi's arms, and cried out in tears, "My child! You scared me to death!"
"God bless you! God bless you!"
