Chapter 381: Don't Spread the Word Yet

didn't want to go. But he couldn't think of what to say, so he just sat on the edge of the bed, silently watching her back.A heavy silence hung in the air.> It had been a very, very long time. So lon...Chapter 381: Don't Spread the Word

At a glance, she could tell that the horrifying red and purple marks on her neck were caused by strangulation. Her brow furrowed instantly, her mind racing with a thousand thoughts.

Then, seeing a large wound on the woman's arm, Dr. Tan immediately frowned and said in a serious tone, "This girl's injury is not good. I suggest sending her to the hospital." 。“

He usually sees patients at the clinic, mostly for minor ailments. Because the clinic's medical equipment is rudimentary, if there are any special circumstances, such as a serious injury like this one, he recommends sending the patient to the hospital to avoid delays in treatment. >>> 。“I also know it’s better to take her to the hospital, but you know our situation, we don’t have the money for that,” the old woman sighed helplessly. After a pause, she abruptly changed the subject, joking, “Or, Doctor Tan, could you borrow some of your retirement fund When this girl wakes up, we’ll have her family send you the money.” 。"Go go, I don't have any retirement savings." 。"Dr. Tan waved his hand, changing the subject. "Before I came here, your old man told me about this girl's situation. He brought a lot of medicine to treat the wound on her arm. If you really don't plan to take her to the hospital, then I'll temporarily treat her first. When she wakes up, you can ask her to contact her family to pick her up and take her to the hospital." 。" A doctor is just a profession for making a living, he doesn't have any lofty ideals of emptying his retirement fund to save lives. 。Besides, it is often seen in the news that some patients go to the hospital alone without money, and doctors kindly help them cover medical expenses. As a result, those unprincipled patients turn their faces and refuse to acknowledge their debts. 。What can I do then I guess I just have to accept my fate, consider it a lesson learned paid for with money. 。"Got it, got it. Please ask Dr. Tan to treat this girl quickly." 。"The old woman urged, " 。Seeing the woman's arm was so badly injured, but her pale little face didn't show any pain at all, she looked unconscious. The old woman couldn't help but worry a little. 。But unfortunately, they didn't have the money to send her to the hospital for treatment. After all, hospitalization alone would cost a lot of money, not to mention treatment fees... Hospitals aren't charities; they wouldn't admit injured patients without payment. 。I don't know when this girl will wake up. 。After Dr. Tan treated the woman's arm and checked her temperature again, seeing that everything was normal, he put the medical supplies back into his medicine box. 。“This girl’s wounds have been dressed, but they are quite serious and could become infected. That might cause a fever. This is a single dose of fever reducer. If you find she has a fever in the middle of the night, please give her this medicine. See if she wakes up tomorrow morning. I will come back again tomorrow morning.” 。"

After giving the fever medicine to the elderly couple, Dr. Tan seemed to remember something and continued, "I see that red mark on the girl's neck was made by someone pinching her. I wonder if she has offended someone. Since you saved her, it's best not to make a fuss for now. In case the bad guy finds out and comes looking, both of you might be implicated. Wait until the girl wakes up and ask her what happened>>>" 。He saw that the girl was delicate and beautiful, especially the ring she wore on her hand, which must have belonged to a wealthy family's wife. What if it was revenge from an enemy If these two old people had saved her, they would be in big trouble once their identities were revealed. 。"Yes, yes, we won't publicize it, and please ask Dr. Tan to keep it confidential." 。The old woman was so frightened that her heart skipped a beat, and she repeatedly replied. 。This old doctor knows more than they do, and what he says isn't without reason. 。However, the elderly couple didn't think too deeply about it. They thought it was more likely that this girl might be pretty, and those low-class people might have had bad intentions after seeing her. Maybe they got violent and even murderous if they couldn't get their way. 。She usually goes out to pick up trash and often hears middle-aged and elderly people in the village in front of her chatting about what is said on the news. It is said that some perverted men do not let go either. 。It's simply too awful, it's just too perverted. 。Dr. Tan instructed them on a few more things, making sure they remembered everything, and after collecting the medical fees, he left with his medicine box. 。How come the medical expenses are so expensive 。When Dr. Tan walked away, the old woman thought about how she had just paid hundreds of yuan for his consultation and medicine, and she couldn't help but feel a pang of pain. 。If this happened three or four more times, she would have emptied her savings completely. 。"That girl's injuries are so severe, if she went to the hospital, it would cost a fortune." 。“The old man is quite open-minded, but he agrees with his wife on some matters. ‘We’re not saints, after all. When the girl wakes up, we’ll have her family pay back the medical expenses. It’s just a temporary loan.’” 。"

The wife had originally intended to do this. Hearing her husband say so, her heart felt a lot more at ease. " 。"Well, when the girl's family arrives, we'll have them return the medical expenses to us." 。“Let’s eat first, I'm starving.” 。The old man urged them on, hurrying toward the kitchen. He brought out the dish that was simmering in the pot, while his wife went to get bowls for the rice. 。After dinner 。After washing herself, the old woman carried a basin of hot water into the room. She took out a new towel she had been reluctant to use to wipe the woman's face and hands. 。After a while, the old woman suddenly shouted to her husband outside, "Old man, come in quickly." 。The old man sitting in the living room heard the sound and quickly walked into the room, "What's wrong Is there anything I can help with" 。Look at this girl's ring, it's so beautiful. It's a pink diamond, I've never seen one before. 。"The old woman couldn't help but exclaim," 。As he spoke, he gently placed the woman's fair palm in his own, so her husband could see it clearly. The pink diamonds glittered with a cruel gleam under the light. 。"Are you stupid Diamonds are all transparent, just like glass shards, how could there be pink diamonds" 。“The old man's face was full of speechless bewilderment. He then speculated, "Looking at this girl, she's quite young and beautiful. She should be protected by her family, inexperienced in the world, not even knowing what a real diamond is like, that's why she was cheated by those bad men with a fake diamond." 。“

The old woman felt that there was something wrong with her husband's words, but she couldn't put her finger on it. However, she was also a bit stubborn... 。"That diamond is about as appealing as a shard of glass. What's so great about it This girl's ring is much prettier, maybe she just likes beautiful things more than expensive ones." 。“The old woman snorted,” 。The old man scratched his head and chuckled, "Then I'll buy you one too another day, a bigger and prettier one than this." 。"ignation.An Xiaotu didn't know the situation between He Li and Lu Yin. This kind of thing, she wasn't clear about it, and she wouldn't meddle blindly."I understand. I don't usually talk much with Lu...
