There was only one emergency ward, quite large, with six beds, and there was no one except the two of them at this time.

Han Xiaoxiao grabbed 10 yuan and wanted to eat something good. She hadn't been to town yet, and she wanted to go shopping, but it was getting dark, and there was nothing on the street. Just now the nurse said that there was a cafeteria, but she didn't know the way. Glancing at the boy on the bed, she went out to the duty room to find a nurse.

She didn't know how to read, and there were many rooms in the hospital, so she couldn't find the duty room that the nurse just said after turning around. I could only go back to the ward, only to see the nurse who was checking in front of the bed. When he saw her come back, he asked, "Where have you been?" What about your family? ”

"My uncle came home and said he would come tomorrow morning."

The nurse frowned, "Just you?" ”

"Hmm."

The nurse said "hey" and said, "I just inserted a urinary catheter for him, come over and I'll teach you how to do it."

Seeing Han Xiaoxiao's ignorant appearance, he sighed again and said, "Forget it, wait for me to get it, I'll come over diligently." You just have to watch the drips. ”

"Uh-oh."

The nurse was just about to go out, when Han Xiaoxiao shouted, "Auntie."

"What's wrong?"

"That, I don't know the cafeteria, can you lead me to eat? I'm rich. After saying that, he stretched out his hand and showed the nurse the ten dollars in his hand.

The nurse thought for a while and said, "You wait, I'll go to the cafeteria to get some food for you later." After that, he didn't ask for the money in Han Xiaoxiao's hand, and turned around and left.

Han Xiaoxiao sat in front of the hospital bed and waited, looking at the boy's face for a while, and looking outside the door for a while. She found a small cabinet next to each bed, and she opened them one by one to check if there were any things that others had thrown away and didn't want. When she was rummaging through the cabinets, the nurse came in just now, and Han Xiaoxiao immediately stopped to look at her. Originally, this nurse saw that she was a small girl, and she was still waiting for a sick number, and she was a little sympathetic in her heart, so she thought about helping her cook or something. I didn't think about it, this baby is so young and so sweet, and he is greedy and cheap, and his face is not good in an instant. But in the end, she was young and soft-hearted, and her face was thin-skinned, so she was embarrassed to question her directly.

Han Xiaoxiao was apprehensive in her heart, she knew that this was no better than in Zhaowa Village, she was used to messing around, and everyone didn't take it seriously. The nurse in front of her looked like a civilized person, which made her restrained.

"I'm just thirsty, and I want to find some water to drink."

The nurse looked at her with a complicated face, not knowing if what she said was true or a lie. I could only hand over the food first, Han Xiaoxiao hurriedly took it with both hands, and heard her say, "Wait." And then went out.

Han Xiaoxiao was holding a foam lunch box, it was still hot, she wanted to open it to see what it was, but she couldn't tell why she didn't dare to move.

Soon after, the nurse returned, holding a clear glass and a kettle. Walked over Han Xiaoxiao and put it on the cabinet next to the bed, and then took the door out again. Didn't say a word from beginning to end.

Han Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed, but he didn't want to admit it, so he pouted and sat in front of the hospital bed to open the lunch box.

"Huh?" Han Xiaoxiao was stunned, the hot rice in the lunch box was covered with carrot scrambled eggs, celery fried meat and a few ribs.

Inexplicably, my heart is a little blocked, I don't know why.

She patted her head, didn't think about anything, and gobbled it up. Feeling so full for the first time when she grew so big, the ribs were so fragrant that she was reluctant to swallow them after chewing for a long time.

The rice grains in the lunch box were clean, she carefully put the empty lunch box on the ground, poured herself a cup of hot water, and sat and drank it, just like when her uncle drank tea.

It was completely dark, and the hospital was closed. There are not many patients in the hospital in the town, and those who are seriously ill or who are not short of money at home have gone to the big hospitals in the city, and no one is hospitalized for minor illnesses and pains, so it will be quiet, only the doctors and nurses on duty chatting and occasionally passing a little laughter. Han Xiaoxiao felt as if she was in a dream, and was stunned at the boy on the bed, feeling that there were only two of them left in the world.

I am a father who doesn't love my mother and doesn't love him, and he messes around every day. Lying down, I don't know if I can still speak, if I really become dumb, I can't find my father and mother, and I'm also a lonely person.

Thinking like this, I feel that although the two people may have been very different in the past, they have now become the same poor worm. If so, let her be her company. Whether she's dumb or not, it's better than being like a weed now and being uncared for.

Just had a full meal, and it was warm in the ward, Han Xiaoxiao felt sleepy after a while. The other beds were empty, Han Xiaoxiao stepped forward and touched them, the sheets were slippery, dry and soft. She stood and sighed for a while, remembering the way the nurse looked at her just now, took the quilt, turned around and lay down under the boy's feet. She's small and thin, so she doesn't take up much space. She covered herself well, covered herself tightly, and in a short time she fell asleep.

Han Xiaoxiao had never slept so comfortably, her whole body was warm, she didn't want to wake up, she wanted to just fall asleep all the time, sleeping until it was dark. But the harsh sound drilled into her ears one by one, and she had to open her eyes.

"Dumb? Is it congenital or acquired? ”

"I don't know the doctor, I told the female doctor yesterday that this baby is not mine, it was picked up."

"At present, looking at the results of the blood routine, there is no problem, it is not like a viral infection, and if it is a high fever caused by a cold, it should not be coma and convulsions. Let's do a lumbar puncture first and see if there is any meningitis. The doctor thought for a moment and said, "Take another urine test."

Han Xiaoxiao didn't understand much, but she said in a daze, "No."

Li Guangyuan and the doctor looked back at her at the same time, "Isn't it?" ”

Han Xiaoxiao suddenly came to his senses, hesitated for a long time and refused to speak. The doctor thought she was the answerer, so he didn't pay attention to it anymore and turned around and went out. Han Xiaoxiao was anxious again, and hurriedly said, "That's it, it's not dumb."

Li Guangyuan frowned and looked at her: "What are you talking nonsense?" Why not dumb. ”

The doctor reacted to something at this time, and approached her and asked, "You mean he can talk?"

Han Xiaoxiao let out a "hmm".

The doctor asked again, "Was he dumb or unable to make a sound before he fell unconscious?"

When Han Xiaoxiao heard this, he understood a little, "He has a voice, but he is very dumb, and he seems to be unable to speak." ”

The doctor nodded, called the nurse over and said, "Urine first, do an electroencephalogram." Then he said to Li Guangyuan: "At present, there is a preliminary inference, wait for the results to come out." If necessary, do a biochemical test. With that, he strode out the door.

As soon as the people over there left, Li Guangyuan asked Han Xiaoxiao in a panic: "What's the situation?" Isn't this boy dumb? What do you mean? ”

At this time, Han Xiaoxiao didn't dare to hide it, lowered his head and whispered: "It's not dumb, I woke up once yesterday, and I fainted again after saying two words." It wasn't until I woke up at noon that I became dumb. ”

Li Guangyuan was stupid when he heard it, this matter is troublesome, Han Daguang, who killed a thousand knives, this is digging a big hole for him! Punched his head twice, and Li Guangyuan spread out on the chair and didn't move.

Han Xiaoxiao didn't dare to speak out at this time, and sat quietly on the hospital bed to secretly look at her uncle.

In the entire ward, except for the sound of Li Guangyuan's "snorting" and panting, it was the "beeping" of the instrument. Backbite. This kind of suppression made Han Xiaoxiao swallow and spit.

After the electroencephalogram was done, the results of the urine test over there also came out, and when the doctor came in, he was shaken by the sun, and he couldn't see his face. Li Guangyuan was particularly frightened, and asked tremblingly: "Doctor, what the hell is going on?" I'm serious, this baby was picked up, and I don't know what's going on with him. ”

"The urine test showed a high level of atropine, the child should have had a high fever caused by the flu before, and it was delayed for a long time, and at the same time, atropine stayed in the body for too long, so the motor language center was damaged to the point of aphasia, coma and convulsions were also the same causes."

Li Guangyuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and asked, "Doctor, I don't understand what you mean."

"It's poisoning, and we can't find out the source of the poison. It may be contact poisoning or food poisoning. Moreover, "the doctor paused, stared at Li Guangyuan's eyes and said, "And the urine test shows that there are other toxic substances in addition to atropine, so it should not be poisoning caused by an overdose of prescription drug atropine."

This tongue-twisting explanation completely frightened Li Guangyuan, that is to say, this boy turned out to be a good person, and he was dumb because he was poisoned? Why did you get poisoned? Eaten bad?

Li Guangyuan didn't understand, but Han Xiaoxiao did. What can make people dumb? Isn't it the dog walnut that Li Rongfa sent their medicine dog!

Her father and Li Rongfa's gang stole dogs in the surrounding villages, first smashed the fruits and seeds of the wolfwalnuts and mixed them with some other medicines, and then threw them into the courtyard. Her father never shy away from her when he talked about it, but how could she remember it.

Han Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and said to the doctor: "Uncle, can people be poisoned and dumb if they eat wolfberry walnuts?"

When the doctor heard this, he asked, "Are the dog walnuts you are talking about like big trumpet flowers, with green leaves hanging down with large white flowers, and the fruit is like a ball of thorns?"

Han Xiaoxiao said: "Yes, I am better in the mountains of my village, and I look very good." The doctor nodded: "That's right, its scientific name is mandala, it is poisonous, especially fruits and seeds, if you accidentally eat too much and overdose is this reaction." As he spoke, he pointed to the boy on the bed.

Han Xiaoxiao listened to this, closed her eyes, swallowed a mouthful of saliva fiercely, and looked at her uncle with a pant. Li Guangyuan knew that things were not so simple, and it was estimated that he had nothing to do with Han Daguang. Hurriedly asked the doctor: "What should I do now?"

The doctor reassured: "The poisoning time is too long, so I can only infuse a large amount of fluid to accelerate metabolism, and the retained toxins can be excreted through the urine as soon as possible." Wait for the rest to be checked when the child wakes up. After thinking about it, he instructed: "After waking up, the child may have auditory hallucinations, visual hallucinations, and irritability, which is a toxic reaction, so don't be nervous." After speaking, he glanced at Han Xiaoxiao, nodded and smiled at her. The latter realized that the doctor was worried about her and was afraid to comfort her, and he immediately felt flattered.
