Escape after crossing

Chapter 4 Medical Ethics

When Jiang Runzhi saw the doctor coming, he quickly stood up and made room for Doctor Hu.

"Doctor Hu, please come over here."

"Nothing, let me take your pulse."

Doctor Hu is usually a very kind person. After talking, he took Jiang Hongyu's pulse.

The room was completely quiet at this time, and even the youngest Jiang Ziqing was staring with wide eyes.

Not long after, Doctor Hu said, "It's okay, I'm just very hungry, just eat something."

He stood up to get the medicine box and prepared to leave, but saw Zhao Qingshu sitting in the corner and frowned slightly.

"Brother Jiang, I'm not being nosy, but I know that everyone is having a hard time right now, and you still have to find a way to feed your family."

Jiang Runzhi looked around at his family, tears in his eyes, and nodded. Doctor Hu may have felt that he had said something he shouldn't have, so he left.

Jiang Runzhi chased out and said, "Doctor Hu, I...I..."

"Brother Jiang, there is no need to pay for the consultation, and I don't need to get any medicine. I just came to check on the child. I'm leaving now."

Jiang Ziluo, who was standing at the door, naturally heard what Doctor Hu said, and she was very grateful to Doctor Hu.

Regardless of whether Jiang Ziluo came from another world or whether he accepted this family, this is just from a doctor's perspective.

Doctor Hu has good medical ethics and good character. She kept it in mind.

When Jiang Runzhi saw Doctor Hu leave, he turned around and saw that the whole family in the house were starving to death, but he had no way to help them.

He walked to the wall, squatted down, grabbed his hair, and cursed himself in his heart for being so useless that he couldn't even support his wife and children.

Jiang Ziluo is a modern person. She naturally knows that if the Jiang family is not financially wealthy, they really cannot support their entire family.

There are eight people in the family, six of whom are children and only two adults are left. The women don't earn much money, and the men have to rely on farming and doing odd jobs to make money.

Add to that the natural and man-made disasters, it’s good enough that we didn’t starve to death.

Jiang Ziluo walked out of the house and squatted down next to Jiang Runzhi.

"Dad, go get the hare and cook some soup for everyone."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Jiang Runzhi stopped squatting and blaming himself. No matter how small the rabbit was, it was still meat. If it was stewed into a pot of soup, it would be nutritious.

Jiang Ziluo went into the house and called Jiang Ziyan out, "Sister, let's go to the village chief's house and borrow some food?"

"The village chief won't lend it. A few days ago, some villagers came to him to borrow grain, but he refused to lend it."

After hearing this, Jiang Ziluo did not think that the village chief was a bad person. She knew that at this time, even if the village chief's family was rich, they could not lend money!

You come to borrow today, and he comes to borrow tomorrow. The village chief can’t lend out all the food while starving, right?

If I lend it to you today and don’t lend it to him tomorrow, wouldn’t that be a complete offense?

So he simply refused to lend money to anyone. Besides, there were more than a dozen people in the village chief's family, and they wouldn't have much food.

Jiang Ziluo thought, it's not enough to just drink the soup? But there is no rice or flour at home.

Just when Jiang Ziluo was wondering what to do, Doctor Hu came back and handed some sweet potato flour, a few sweet potatoes and some potatoes to the two sisters in the yard.

Both of them were stunned. When they came to their senses, Jiang Ziluo chased after Doctor Hu and saw that he had already walked a long way away.

"Dad, Doctor Hu brought some food. He put it down and left." Jiang Ziyan was holding the food, not knowing whether to put it down or send it back.

Jiang Ziluo came back, holding the food and said, "Eat it, and we will return it to Doctor Hu when we have more. We must make sure we don't starve to death now, so that we can repay him later."

Jiang Runzhi wanted to send it back. After all, who would have surplus food to lend out at this time?

He couldn't be so selfish as to only care about his own family and not consider others. But after listening to his second daughter's words, he felt that it was right.

Doctor Hu was not an impulsive person. Since he brought it, it meant that he had left some food for himself.

After a meal tonight, he will go to the county to find a job tomorrow. As a grown man with plenty of strength, he cannot let his family go hungry.

Thinking of this, he said, "Eat. Tomorrow Dad will find a job to earn money to buy food for you."

"Dad, where are you going to find a job tomorrow?" Jiang Ziluo asked.

"Let's go to the county. There shouldn't be much work in the town, and the county town is a little closer to us."

Jiang Runzhi felt relieved. Although he was an uneducated and rough man, his children were well taught by his wife.

"Dad, I also want to go to the county tomorrow."

"Second sister, where are you going? Dad is going to work, not to play." Jiang Ziyan disagreed.

"Sister, I'm going to take a look. It's been dry here for a while. I just want to see if the rich people in the county are ready to leave."
