Chapter 995: Chapter 0995: Making Good Connections 4

Feng Qingxue didn’t stay at the Guo Family’s home for long. After Lu Jiang returned, the couple took their leave.

They arrived with gifts to offer for apprenticeship and left with a box of notes.

For Feng Qingxue’s current situation, these notes were far more important than the medical books she had collected, as they contained case studies of complicated diseases that occurred in contemporary times and also included Western medical treatment methods.

Just as they reached the hostel where they were staying, they saw Cui Shaoyuan hurriedly walking out, followed by a middle-aged man with an anxious expression.

The moment the middle-aged man saw Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue, a look of delighted surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Quick, Qingxue, do you still have any Bezoar Pills? If you do, give me one!" Cui Shaoyuan got straight to the point, stomping his foot as he spoke, "I regret it so much! The one you gave me the other day, I sent it back home, as a lifesaver for my father and child. Who would have thought that Comrade Zhou Xuecheng’s eldest grandson has contracted meningitis, is now in the hospital for emergency treatment, and the situation is very critical. However, the hospital doesn’t have the antibiotics to treat this disease. A doctor suggested they try to get Bezoar Pills, as, aside from antibiotics, it’s the most effective medicine. Comrade Zhou Xuecheng has searched through all the big and small pharmacies and hospitals, to no avail. Even the few places that originally had them had sold out. Lately, several children have contracted the same disease, so there’s a severe shortage."

His knowledge was limited to what his colleagues knew; there must be more he was unaware of below the surface, but all he could do now was focus on the child in immediate danger, not knowing how many pills Feng Qingxue had in her possession.

Without a word, Feng Qingxue hurriedly said, "I do, I still have a few pills left. I’ll go get them, you two wait here."

After speaking, she quickly returned to her room and took out seven individually packaged Bezoar Pills from her space. She removed their original packaging, of course not taking off the wax seals, and put all of them into a glass bottle before handing it over to Cui Shaoyuan, "These seven pills are all I have left, Comrade Cui. Take them all back with you, and give them to whichever child needs them. I collected these pills in the past for emergencies."

Saving one life is more meritorious than building a seven-level pagoda; seven pills were her limit to offer.

Any more, and it would arouse suspicion in others.

Even though it was for saving lives, she would still prioritize the safety of herself and her family first.

Cui Shaoyuan handed out two pills to Zhou Xuecheng, who bowed deeply to Feng Qingxue, "The child is in a critical condition and needs the medicine urgently. I won’t say much in thanks now, but once the child’s condition improves, I will come back to express my gratitude to both of you comrades!"

After finishing his words, he hurried into a red flag car parked at the entrance, not having time to bid farewell to Cui Shaoyuan.

Cui Shaoyuan gripped the glass bottle tightly and also said to Feng Qingxue, "I know of two other cases of this disease; I need to deliver the medicine to them. Saving one more life is saving another. I’ll fill you in on the details once I’m done with the deliveries. Don’t be in a rush to leave the Capital, alright?"

Without waiting for Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue to reply, he left.

Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue exchanged a glance, with the latter sighing softly, "Those with resources can find life-saving medicine. What about those without the means? Are they not even taken to the hospital?"

She believed that this disease didn’t discriminate between the rich and the poor.

Lu Jiang, carrying the box in one hand and supporting her with the other, said, "Let’s go up for now; you’re tired after a long day. Faced with such situations, all we can do is to do our best and leave the rest to fate."

Due to the appearance of Cui Shaoyuan and Zhou Xuecheng, the hostel’s staff treated them with exceptional warmth and attentiveness.

... The Bezoar Pill is definitely not that miraculous, but in the absence of antibiotics, this medicine truly is a lifesaver for conditions like strokes, comas, meningitis, and so on. It’s just a novel, everyone, so don’t laugh.
