Lin Yinan looked carefully and saw that the woman was carrying a huge backpack and the man was holding a child in his arms.

"Third Madam, are Doctor Lu and Doctor Lin here?" Yun Yi walked up to Lin Yinan, stopped, and bowed to her.

When the couple came closer, Lin Yinan saw that the child in the man's arms was skinny and his cheeks were abnormally red.

Hearing Yun Yi calling Lin Yinan "Madam", the man guessed that she was the one who made the decision, so he knelt down in front of her with the child in his arms. The bluestone slab was so hard that Lin Yinan felt pain for him.

The man knelt down, and the woman followed suit with a hunched back.

"What happened?" Lin Yinan quickly took two steps back and asked.

"Madam, please save my child. He has had a fever for several days and we have tried many methods but nothing works." The woman burst into tears.

Yun Yi leaned in and whispered in her ear, "They are mountain people who fled to the mountains."

Lin Yinan knew what was going on and said hurriedly, "Get up, Yun Wu is in the backyard, come with me."

It has been raining these few days and many people have caught colds. The amount of medicinal herbs needed is large, so doctors Lu and Lin took advantage of the good weather and went up the mountain to collect herbs early in the morning.

Yunwu was drying the herbs he picked during patrol in the backyard.

Yun Wu asked the man to carry the child to a wooden bed in the consultation room where doctors Lu and Lin were seeing doctors, and held the child's skinny little hand to feel his pulse.

The couple stared with wide eyes, not daring to breathe.

After settling the couple, Yun Yi hurried away to report the matter to Yun Ye.

After a while, Yun Wu felt the pulse and looked at the couple, "Did the child get caught in the rain?"

The couple looked at each other, and the wife nodded quickly, "The hail destroyed the house, and it rained all night."

Lin Yinan stared at them, and the couple lowered their heads in shame.

"The child was attacked by wind and cold evil spirits, which caused fever and chills. I first gave him acupuncture and then prescribed medicine to see if he could reduce the fever."

Yun Wu sat at the table, writing a prescription, "How old is the child?"

The woman whispered, "Five years old."

Lin Yinan was stunned. The child looked only three years old, but actually he was five.

After writing, Yun Wu personally picked up the medicine from the medicine cabinet in the house and handed it to the woman.

"There is a small room for boiling medicine next to it. You can boil the medicine there."

After simply teaching the woman how to decoct the medicine, Yun Wu took out the bag of silver needles he carried with him and wiped them carefully with a clean handkerchief.

"Take off his clothes," he said to the man.

The man obediently stepped forward to help the child take off his clothes.

The child's clothes were taken off. Perhaps because she was about to become a mother, Lin Yinan felt a pang in her heart. The little person had only a layer of skin covering his bones.

"Why are you so thin?" Yun Wu frowned unhappily.

The man rubbed his hands nervously, "When my wife was pregnant with him, the Japanese pirates came. We didn't have time to take anything and fled to the mountains in a hurry. My wife gave birth to him prematurely and didn't have enough milk. The conditions in the mountains were not good, so..."

The man turned his face away as he spoke, covered his eyes with his palms, and trembled.

It’s all because he’s such a useless father!

In the small room next to the pharmacy, the woman was also sobbing quietly.

While waiting, Lin Yinan left the pharmacy and went to the dining hall in front to tell Zhang to make two more bowls of rice for the couple.

"How long will they stay here?"

It’s not that Zhang was cruel, she just felt a little sorry for the food. After all, the fields haven’t grown any food yet.

Lin Yinan, "The child will leave when he wakes up."

As for whether the child can survive, it depends on the ability of his parents. Although she feels sorry for the child, she can't do anything.

There’s a high probability that she won’t survive! She thought.

In the evening, Lin Yinan went to the pharmacy to see the child again.

After taking the medicine, the child's fever did not go down.

In the afternoon, doctors Lu and Lin also examined the child and both shook their heads, fearing that the child would have a hard time surviving the night.

What Doctor Lu meant was that the child was too thin and the medicine he was given was completely ineffective.

The couple stayed beside their child in a daze, with a look of numbness and grief on their faces.

They had expected this day to come ever since their child was born.

Lin Yinan returned to the room, took out the children's antipyretic medicine that he had stockpiled in modern times from the space, and took a bottle of glucose and poured it into the porcelain bottle.

When I came to the pharmacy again, Yun Wu was also there, but Doctors Lu and Lin were nowhere to be seen.

"I have a bottle of ancestral medicine that may be useful for him. Do you want to try it?" Lin Yinan said in a cold voice.

She was a person who had struggled through the apocalypse. No matter how hard life was in the mountains, it was really wrong for the couple to raise their child like this!

But at this moment, she was full of compassion and wanted to save this poor innocent little life.

The woman turned her head stiffly and looked at Lin Yinan. Before the man could speak, she hurriedly said, "Try! I want to try! Please, Madam, save my child."

Yun Wu came over to help. He knew that the Third Madam always had some strange ancestral medicines.

"Open his mouth."

Lin Yinan unscrewed the antipyretic drug, took out a dropper, and squeezed it into the child's mouth. The child still had the consciousness to swallow, and he quickly swallowed the antipyretic drug.

It was the first time the three of them saw the red liquid. Although they were curious, no one asked about it.

"Give him this bottle of medicine three times. The medicine is expensive, so don't pour it out."

Lin Yinan handed the glucose in the porcelain bottle to the woman.

This glucose would be more effective faster if injected into the vein, but children's blood vessels are thin, and even in prosperous times, inexperienced nurses cannot get the injection right the first time.

The child is so thin. Lin Yinan is not a medical student and doesn't think he has such ability.

He took antipyretics and drank some glucose to replenish electrolytes in his body. As for whether he could wake up, he could only leave it to fate.

"Thank you ma'am!"

The couple knelt down and kowtowed several times to Lin Yinan.

night.

The dark night enveloped the earth, the stars were dim, and the sky was like a giant beast with its mouth wide open.

Lin Yinan stood in front of the window and quietly looked at the swaying shadows of the trees outside.

She remembered that at the beginning of the apocalypse, all water and electricity were cut off. It took her a long time to adapt to the days without water, electricity, and no light at night.

Later, even if the house was surrounded by zombies, she could still sleep peacefully amid their roars and screams.

Chinatsu was sewing clothes for the child by the dim candlelight.

"Qianxia, ​​stop doing it, be careful of your eyes." Lin Yinan advised. At that time, there should be no myopic glasses.

Chinatsu raised her head and gave her a faint smile, "It will be fine soon, just two more injections."

After persuading him, Lin Yinan turned his head and stopped talking, beginning to lose himself in his own thoughts.

She was thinking about what to do next in her mind.

I was so absorbed in my thoughts that I put on an extra coat.

At some point, Chinatsu put away the sewing basket and brought her clothes.

Lin Yinan's brows relaxed, "Qianxia, ​​it's late, you should go back and rest!"

"But uncle..."

Lin Yinan's lips curled up into a faint smile, "My son-in-law is back."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yun Mo pushed the door open and walked in.
