General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming novel Chapter 58

58 Taking the Medicine

The first step to rescuing patients with hypothermia was to get them to leave the low-temperature environment.

Su Xiaoxiao quickly took off her winter clothes. “Ergou! Go to the kitchen and build a brazier! Hurry! Boil a few more buckets of hot water!”

Su Ergou: “The pot...”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Go borrow it from the neighbors. Be polite!”

“Alright.”

Su Ergou turned around and walked out.

The cold wind and snow seemed to press down on Su Ergou’s face mercilessly.

Su Ergou did not close his mouth and took a deep breath of snow.

“Cough, cough, cough!”

“Tui tui tui!”

He spat out the snow in his mouth in disdain and knocked on the door next door.

The person who opened the door was the woman who had just spoken to them.

The woman had just been sweeping and was holding a broom with snow hanging on it.

“What’s wrong now?” the woman asked.

She probably didn’t like Aunt Fu. After knowing that the siblings were here to look for her, she didn’t have a good attitude toward them.

Su Ergou remembered his sister’s advice and said politely, “Madam, do you have many pots at home? I want to borrow one from you.”

When Su Ergou was a bully, he was fierce. When he was obedient, he was actually quite a pleasing young man. Coupled with his gentle tone, he was... quite likable.

The woman coughed lightly and said indifferently, “Why are you borrowing the pot?”

Su Ergou said truthfully, “Aunt Fu next door fainted and the pot at home was burned through. I want to use the pot to boil some hot water for her.”

“She fainted?” The woman was shocked. “Isn’t her body quite strong?”

Su Ergou scratched his head. “Maybe it was too slippery in the snow and she accidentally fell. Then, she fainted from the cold.”

The woman frowned and turned around to enter the house to get a big pot for Su Ergou. Then, she looked at Su Ergou deeply, as if she was wondering if that bad-tempered old woman would actually have someone help her.

Hadn’t she scolded him enough?

To be honest, if it weren’t for Physician Fu, who would be willing to bother with that old woman?

“Who are you to her?” the woman asked.

“We’re here to buy peanuts from her,” Su Ergou said.

The woman said nothing more.

Su Ergou took the pot to the kitchen and quickly boiled hot water.

In the house, Su Xiaoxiao took off the granny’s snow-soaked clothes and reattached the splint on her leg.

Su Xiaoxiao was already very careful throughout the entire process, but she could still feel that Aunt Fu’s breathing was getting stranger.

She took Aunt Fu’s pulse and opened her eyes. “Could it be...”

Su Xiaoxiao had a guess.

She retrieved the first aid kit from the small basket.

She was going to perform a follow-up on Young Master Xiang today, so she brought her first aid kit with her before leaving.

The first aid kit contained a stethoscope and a blood pressure monitor.

Aunt Fu’s left arm was slightly bruised. She tied the sleeve of the blood pressure gauge to Aunt Fu’s right arm and stuffed the stethoscope’s receiver in. As she pumped and pressed, she observed the blood pressure gauge’s data.

As expected, Aunt Fu’s blood pressure was very high.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t know about Aunt Fu’s medical history, so she wasn’t sure if it was a one-time increase in blood pressure caused by frostbite or if her blood pressure had always been high.

Either way, she had to reduce the patient’s pressure immediately.

She could take this opportunity to see if she could enter the pharmacy.

Su Xiaoxiao closed her eyes.

When she opened her eyes, she realized that she was still where she was.
