Chapter 344: The Wheelchair and the Follow-up

Then, Little Six said in surprise, “Could… the boss have done the same thing as last time?” Their boss acted quite similarly last time too.

Was that possible? But when would their boss carry Miss Lin in his arms again?

The question was, did their boss catch Miss Lin and then throw her out again?

If that were the case, it could only mean that their boss deserved it!

They had no idea what had really happened because neither Lin Yuelan nor Jiang Zhennan had revealed a single word.

Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan were like a young couple who were having an argument.

…

There was not much to worry about Lin Mingqing. The bone between his lower back and tailbone had regrown. The new bones were still very weak. Plus, Lin Mingqing hadn’t walked in the past three years, and he needed time to adjust to it.

It would take at least three months for Lin Mingqing to fully recover, so Lin Yuelan planned to prepare a wheelchair for him first.

This was something Lin Yuelan had planned before she started treating Lin Mingqing. However, due to the limitations of materials, Lin Yuelan faced a road bump.

In terms of material, there was no leather or rubber where modern wheels were made of.

Iron rust too easily. Plus, it was very expensive. On top of that, iron tires were heavy and inconvenient to move.

Therefore, Lin Yuelan settled for wood. Many carriages used wooden wheels anymore.

However, wooden wheels would be easily damaged when they come into contact with stones or other hard things. Plus, it was heavy. It would be difficult to push. It would easily tire someone out pushing it.

In the end, Lin Yuelan came up with an idea. She would use a pig’s intestine to wrap around the wheel. This would reduce friction and increase the balance and shock resistance.

When Lin Yuelan pushed the wheelchair out, the group was filled with joy.

“Miss Lin, this is the wheelchair you were talking about, right?”

Back then, when miss Lin took out a drawing and asked them to build a chair according to it, it made them curious.

Lin Yuelan’s chair was designed mainly for disabled or sick people who couldn’t move. If this thing could be mass-produced, it would solve the mobility issue of many disabled people.

Wheelchairs hadn’t been invented yet, so everyone was curious. They looked at the contraption that looked like a combination of a chair and a horse carriage.

Lin Yuelan said, “this is a wheelchair!”

“Wheelchair?”

“This is a movable chair specially prepared for patients with leg disabilities.” Lin Yuelan explained.

Guo Bing was the first to react. He asked in surprise, “Will this chair help those paralyzed people move?”

Lin Yuelan nodded and said, “that’s right. Now people with paralysis will have to lie in bed and have their families take care of them. That’s not good. I saw horse carriages, and that’s basically a box on wheels, so I thought, why not design a chair on wheels?”

“So, your design principle is based on a chair on wheels?” Guo Bing said excitedly, “Miss Lin, you’re so smart.”
