Chapter 100 - 100 The First Born is Shy
If Lu Jiao wasn’t busy doing CPR, she would’ve slapped him. What the ****! What a disgusting man.
Since she couldn’t swing her arm, she warned him with a death glare, “I am telling you to get over here. If you don’t, I will never forgive you.”
Shen Xiaoshan hesitated. Behind him, two women dragged and pushed him toward Xia Lian.
Lu Jiao said, “Blow air into her mouth. She’s not dead yet.”
She said that in order to convince Shen Xiaoshan to do mouth-to-mouth.
Her words didn’t earn any reaction from Shen Xiushan. The others, however, excitedly asked, “She’s alive?”
“No way, we checked her for breathing. There was nothing.”
“If Yunjin’s wife is saying that, then she sure can save Xia Lian. Stop arguing.”
Lu Jiao ignored everyone and grabbed onto Shen Xiaoshan. In a demanding tone, she commanded, “Breathe into her mouth right now, or I will beat you to death.”
Shen Xiaoshan was forced to give Xia Lian mouth-to-mouth. He was a little scared – he felt like he was breathing into a dead person.
Lu Jiao kept her eyes on him, which scared him.
Lu Jiao took a look at Xia Lian after Shen Xiaoshan did as instructed. Xia Lian still wasn’t moving.
Lu Jiao asked Shen Xiaoshan to stop so she could go back to chest compressions. Then, she ordered Shen Xiaoshan to give her breaths again.
Xia Lian remained still. Lu Jiao knew this was bad and she needed to inject Xia Lian with intramuscular epinephrine, or else she may actually die.
Though she had the medication in her space, she didn’t want to expose herself. She looked around and noticed that the moonlight wasn’t bright enough for everyone to see clearly. These villagers may not notice her small movements.
Lu Jiao didn’t have time to think too much. She took out the epinephrine from her space and injected Xia Lian with it.
It didn’t take long for Xia Lian’s chest to rise and for her to start coughing.
Lu Jiao sighed in relief. Only now did she realize that she was out of strength and was close to passing out. Today, she performed both surgery and CPR. She was absolutely drained of energy.
The crowd started to cheer.
“Xia Lian came back to life.”
“She wasn’t breathing before but she’s alive now.”
“Yunjin’s wife is insane.”
“Yeah, she’s insane. She saved a dead woman.”
Lu Jiao ignored everyone and turned to Shen Xiaoshan angrily, “She’s fine now. Take her home.”
She then stood up to go home while the villagers complimented her left and right.
“Yunjin’s wife, you’re so great.”
“Yeah, how did you revive a dead person?”
“Your knowledge is vast.”
Lu Jiao didn’t want the villagers to exaggerate so she explained, “Xia Lian wasn’t really dead. Her body just seemed that way but she was alive. It wasn’t all skill.”
She then went home.
Though she explained it, the villagers still found her to be skillful. Not only did she manage to cure one person, but she’s also helped out two to three people by now. She managed to heal even those considered terminal by other doctors. This meant she was a great doctor.
By the time Lu Jiao got home, Xu Duojin and the others had left. It was actually time for dinner, but nobody at home ate and they were all waiting for her.
“Why aren’t you guys eating? Why are you waiting for me?”
Lady Tian pointed at the four little ones, “None of them are eating. They’re waiting for you to come home.”
Lu Jiao was both happy and sour to hear that. She knelt down and hugged the children.
“It’s okay for you to eat first if I am busy.”
The four little ones were happy to have been hugged. They liked being hugged. Their mommy’s hug was comfortable and her hug made them feel her love.
Even the First Born’s eyes lit up and his lips curled up by a few degrees.
Their little mannerism was so cute, thought Lu Jiao. This was the way the First Born should be acting – he shouldn’t be emotionless and serious like his father every day.
Lu Jiao couldn’t help but kiss the First Born on the cheek.
The First Born’s face turned red. Walking weirdly, he left. Lu Jiao grinned. Was that little guy shy? The Second, Third and Fourth Born saw that she kissed the First Born and displayed their own cheeks towards their mother.
“Mommy, I want a kiss.”
Lu Jiao kissed all of them. The three young men grinned in satisfaction.
Lady Tian saw how happy the children were and couldn’t help but feel much happiness. Her daughter went through so much hardship and it was all worth it. She didn’t need to worry anymore.
“Okay, let’s eat dinner. It’s late.”
Lu Jiao held the children’s hands as they entered the room.
Dinner today was simple and bland. There was vegetable porridge, cut up cucumber, and stir-fried beans.
Though simple, the vegetable porridge received stunning reviews. Even Lady Tian complimented it.
“Jiaojiao, your vegetables are so fresh and delicious. It tastes better than other places.”
The four little ones nodded in agreement. They enjoyed the vegetable porridge as well.
Lu Jiao’s lips curled up. She watered these vegetables using her spiritual water. It was normal that they tasted good. Plus, these greens were very healthy for the body.
Lu Jiao said to Lady Tian, “If you like it, bring some home.”
Lady Tian didn’t decline. She saw that her daughter grew a whole bunch in the yard, “Okay.”
Lu Jiao rushed through her porridge and went to get another bowl to feed Xie Yunjin.
“How are your legs? Do they still hurt?”
Xie Yunjin shook his head. The painkiller kicked in and the pain stopped. Now, he was worried that the pill interfered with the healing process.
“Is the medicine you gave me prescribed by Dr. Qi?”
Lu Jiao nodded, “Yes, Dr. Qi said you can have one if the pain is bad. Don’t worry, it’s fine.”
“Are you sure?”
Lu Jiao’s expression was serious. Given that, Xie Yunjin felt less anxious and started eating his porridge. He remembered to declare, “I won’t take the pill tomorrow. I will endure the pain.”
Lu Jiao didn’t persist. After all, this guy was so worried about the pill hurting his recovery. After tonight, the pain should be easier to endure.
“Okay.”
Since he just had surgery, Lu Jiao didn’t give him any other food.
Before, Xie Yunjin was lying in bed and could hear everyone complimenting the vegetable porridge in the living room next door.
After he ate the porridge, he agreed with them, “The vegetables seem to be fresher than other people’s. It’s truly delicious.”
Lu Jiao beamed. She was in a great mood.
