Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen
Chapter 24 Rescue
If you ask which is the most expensive restaurant in Jinji Town, if Pinxianlou is second, no one dares to say it is first. If you ask which is the best restaurant in Jinji Town, it must be Pinxianlou.
Lu Ke'er stood in front of Pinxianlou and nodded secretly.
Pinxianlou has two floors, with flying eaves, carved beams and painted buildings, which is very impressive. Two couplets are hung on both sides of the gate, reading: "Fine wine and delicious food welcome close friends, famous building and elegant seats welcome distinguished guests." A black plaque with gold thread hangs above the head, with three large characters inscribed in a flamboyant style: Pinxianlou.
There was a constant stream of traffic and guests in front of the building. A clever servant in a blue shirt and long trousers stood in front of the door, bowing and welcoming guests.
It is said that the owner behind the Pinxianlou is very mysterious. No one knows his name or age. All we know is that he has excellent business ability, unique vision and clever means. Five years ago, the first Pinxianlou opened in Beijing. Since then, he has opened Pinxianlou in various places in Qiguo. Three years ago, a branch was opened in Jinji Town. The quality of the dishes and the hotel management are the same as those of other branches. A new dish is launched every quarter to attract diners.
"But, Ke'er, let's go." Dong Ling shrank back and hid behind Lu Ke'er, rubbing the corner of her clothes nervously.
Everyone who came in and out of Pinxianlou was well-dressed and either rich or noble. She was like a little sparrow that accidentally strayed into a flock of swans, attracting a lot of attention.
Lu Ke'er held her head high, carrying the fish basket on her back, and without saying a word, she pulled Dong Ling towards the gate.
"Ladies, would you like to have dinner or..." The handsome servant came forward and asked with a smile on his face.
He saw that the two were wearing coarse cloth and clothes covered with dirt. Their shoes were stained with mud. It was obvious that they were from the countryside. The leading girl was carrying a bamboo basket, which gave off a fishy smell. The servant looked up and looked at the girl's face. He was startled and his eyes disappeared.
The girl had a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes, which were sparkling and seemed to be able to see into people's hearts. She smiled at him, as if she was very satisfied with his equal attitude.
"We are here to borrow your restaurant to cook a meal." Lu Ke'er said with a smile.
"W-what?" The boy was so surprised that he stuttered.
Dong Ling also widened her eyes.
"Hey, young man, I have two fish in my basket. I would like to borrow your restaurant kitchen to cook a plate of fish."
The servant finally caught his breath. He stared at Lu Ke'er, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
"Miss, this is a restaurant. It's a place for guests to eat, not a place to cook." He emphasized the words "eat" and "cook."
"I heard that Pinxianlou launches a new dish every season." Lu Ke'er stared at him, "Maybe you can ask your boss... or the shopkeeper if he is willing to try the dishes I make."
"Girl, if you are here to have fun or to cause trouble, please go back." The servant frowned, stretched out his arm, and made a gesture to drive away.
Dong Ling pulled Lu Ke'er's sleeve fearfully: "Ke'er, let's go."
Several pedestrians standing nearby also advised: "Little girl, this is your first time in a restaurant, right? The dishes in this restaurant are all prepared by the chef, but no one comes to a hotel to cook their own food."
Some people also laughed at her, "What a country girl! What kind of place is this Pinxianlou? Even the county magistrate would come here to eat, and she actually wanted to go in with two raw fish."
Dong Ling was embarrassed and ashamed, her face flushed. But when she saw that Lu Ke'er didn't move, she suppressed her anxiety and stood beside her without moving.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion coming from the restaurant.
"Young Master, Young Master, what's wrong with you? Quick, go find the shopkeeper!"
After a chaotic sound of footsteps, a panicked voice sounded: "Hao'er, Hao'er, what's wrong with you? Don't scare Daddy!"
"Boss, the young master seems to have choked on his food!"
"Who gave him the peanuts?"
"Oh, go find a doctor!"
Someone ran out of the restaurant, ran to the street, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"This man must have gone to see a doctor. But the nearest clinic is two blocks away from here." Dong Ling murmured in a low voice.
"What?" Lu Ke'er suddenly said, "It's too late."
She pushed the servant away and rushed into the restaurant without even taking off the basket.
The first floor lobby of the restaurant was in chaos.
In the crowd, a middle-aged man in his forties was holding a three or four-year-old boy and collapsed on the ground, crying loudly: "Hao'er, Hao'er, don't scare Daddy!"
The boy's eyes were wide open, he patted his chest, and opened his mouth, but he was breathing out more than breathing in, and his face was already red and purple.
"Hurry, hurry and let the young master spit out what's in his mouth!" Someone pried open the boy's mouth and put his fingers in to dig inside, while someone else patted the boy on the back, but the situation did not improve at all.
The little boy gradually lost consciousness.
In the chaos, no one noticed a thin figure shooting towards them like an arrow.
The figure pushed away the people who were blocking him, rushed to the middle-aged man, snatched the boy from him, put his hands under the boy's armpits, hugged the boy against his chest with his back facing up, then clenched one hand into a fist, clenched the other hand into a fist, and squeezed the child's stomach hard.
The boy was like a swaying leaf at her mercy.
"You lunatic, what are you doing?" The middle-aged man was horrified and rushed over to pry her hands open and take the boy back.
"If you don't want this child to die, stop it!" Lu Ke'er was performing the Heimlich maneuver skillfully while shouting to stop him.
The middle-aged man was furious and rushed forward to pull and tug at Lu Ke'er.
The people around also reacted and rushed over to beat Lu Ke'er.
"Let go! You lunatic!"
"You're going to kill this child! Let go! The child is almost dying!"
“Ke’er, Ke’er!” Dong Ling, who had chased after her, started crying anxiously, “Don’t hit her, don’t hit her.”
She cried, shouted, pulled, pushed, and tried her best to stop those people. But how could a little girl like her stop these people?
Lu Ke'er circulated the spiritual power throughout her body to protect her vital parts, but her hands never stopped moving, squeezing the child's abdomen upwards over and over again.
The middle-aged man felt like he was going crazy.
Where did this crazy girl come from? She ignored everyone's obstruction and insisted on doing it. What hatred or grudge did she have that made her want to kill his Hao'er?
At this moment, there was a sudden "pop" sound, and a small black shadow emerged from the boy's throat, drew a graceful arc in the air, and fell to the ground.
After a while, the boy burst into tears.
"Ah, it's the peanut that choked the young master." Someone saw the thing on the ground clearly and shouted.
Only then did Lu Keer stop.
Everyone seemed to have pressed the pause button, motionless, even the air seemed to be stagnant.
I could hear the boy crying and screaming: "Daddy, Daddy——"
After a long while, the middle-aged man finally came to his senses. He hugged the child tightly, as if he was holding a lost treasure, and called out repeatedly with a choked voice: "Hao'er, Hao'er, my Hao'er..."
"Make way, make way, Doctor Sun is here--" Just here, someone came over with an old man carrying a medicine box.
