Chapter 10: Sick in the middle of the night and guarded until dawn

One night in mid-October, Gao Wutong was trying to wash up and sleep, when he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door, Zhang Guilan asked hurriedly outside the door:

"Teacher Gao, have you slept? There's something to trouble you. ”

"Reading a book, what's the matter?" Gao Wutong opened the door.

"Class 95 Liu Xiyue suddenly had a high fever, and taking antipyretic medicine didn't work, and now it's like a coma, and she must be sent to the hospital, otherwise no one can afford to have an accident. Fortunately, the city hospital is nearby, but Teacher Zhao is not there, I can't leave the duty room, and the girl in the class can't carry it, can you help send her to the city hospital. ”

"I can carry her, but I'm afraid it's not convenient to take care of her."

"The students in the class have only been here for more than a month, they are small and timid, and they are three watches in the middle of the night, and I really don't feel at ease to let them take care of them. There is an adult who is in control. Although the female teacher is more suitable, the two female teachers are not very easy to talk to, and they do not teach their class, and they are really inconvenient at night. You teach them class, and you can rest assured when you go to guard me. Zhang Guilan smiled understandingly, "It's not inconvenient, it's to accompany her to the hospital to see a doctor, you can treat it as his brother or her father, take care of his sister temporarily, in a public place, if there is anything to deal with according to the situation, it will be easy to handle at dawn." ”

Gao Wutong stuffed all the money in the dormitory into his shirt pocket, filled the thermos cup with hot water and put it in his coat pocket, stuffed the bread he bought during the walk into his pocket, and went to Liu Xiyue's dormitory with Zhang Guilan.

Zhang Guilan knocked on the door: "Teacher Gao is here, ready to send Liu Xiyue to the hospital." ”

After the door opened, Lan Lingmei and Zhu Geqi helped Liu Xiyue to sit up, and helped her to Gao Wutong's back, and the seven of them went to the outpatient department of the city hospital together. Gao Wutong put down Liu Xiyue, Lan Lingmei and a few people helped her to wait in the emergency room, Gao Wutong hung up the emergency number, and the doctor on duty said that he wanted an infusion after reading it, and opened a list to ask him to pay for the needle and water.

Gao Wutong handed over the six bottles of needle water and bills to the nurse, and several people helped Liu Xiyue into the infusion room, which had seats and beds, and it was empty and a little gloomy. Gao Wutong pointed to a bed in the corner and not far from the window, and several people helped Liu Xiyue to sit on the edge of the bed, helped her take off her shoes, got on the bed, lay down and covered the quilt. Liu Xiyue's face was flushed, her eyes were squinted, and she was at the mercy of others in a daze.

"Liu Xiyue, Liu Xiyue, speak."

Liu Xiyue's eyes blinked, her mouth moved, but she didn't say anything.

"Pathetic! With so much needle water, it is difficult to drink, and it has to be infused into the blood vessels. ”

Gao Wutong was distressed and uneasy, the nurse inserted the needle, and saw that the needle water was dripping down rhythmically, and her heart relaxed a little, and she looked at her watch, it was almost twelve o'clock.

"You can't help much, go back to sleep, just have me here."

"Teacher Gao, thank you for your hard work, we will come as soon as the morning dawns." Lanling Meidao.

"Don't worry, I just haven't had classes tomorrow morning. Stay safe on your way. Gao Wutong saw that Lan Lingmei wanted to speak and stopped, and thought for a while, "Do you want me to send you to the gate of the courtyard?" ”

"It's not. There were five of us, and there were people on the road, and we dared to go. I'm worried about how Liu Xiyue will go to the bathroom. ”

"I'll help her to the bathroom door, and if it doesn't work, I'll ask the nurse for help."

"It's important to see a doctor, that's the only way to go. Teacher Gao, look at the situation. ”

If it is to take care of another girl, Gao Wutong will feel awkward and scruples, and there is an inexplicable worry, afraid that people will gossip or even blame it afterwards, and it will be thankless. However, taking care of Liu Xiyue, he was not worried that she would blame himself at all, and he was kind and natural for no reason. The sick Liu Xiyue's face was pale, her eyes seemed to be unable to open, her forehead was wet, her hair was tangled with sweat, her brows were wrinkled from time to time, her mouth was chapped, and her hands were stretched out softly. It was the first time he had seen her like this, and she had completely lost her usual freshness, freshness and beauty, but he still thought she was beautiful and cute.

"A man who is alive and well, sick like a poor kitten."

Gao Wutong brought a towel with Lan Lingmei, gently wiped the sweat on Liu Xiyue's forehead and neck, moved his right hand without a needle to the bed, and covered it with a quilt. A moment later, Liu Xiyue's right hand was exposed again, and her fingers moved. Gao Wutong hesitated for a moment, reached out and touched her hand, cold. He wanted to let go and wanted to help her, but when he was in a dilemma, Liu Xiyue's hand moved and held his thumb tightly. Gao Wutong sighed, moved her body to the side of the bed, and let her hold it tightly, and her other fingers gently brushed her fingers.

The second bottle of needle water was about to run out, and Liu Xiyue's face improved a lot. Gao Wutong gently broke her fingers and prepared to call the nurse. Liu Xiyue opened her eyes, looked at Gao Wutong shyly, and closed her eyes with peace of mind. The nurse changed the needle and left. Gao Wutong opened the thermos cup, helped her to sit up, fed her a few sips of water and lay down. After a while, Liu Xiyue's hand stretched out from the quilt again, and her fingers moved.

"When I was a child, I definitely liked to sleep with my adult's fingers, and when I grew up, I repeated it."

Gao Wutong smiled lovingly, held Liu Xiyue's hand, and let her hold her thumb.

At three o'clock in the night, all the needle water finally dripped out. Liu Xiyue's body temperature returned to normal, but she was weak and her head hurt a little. Gao Wutong helped her up and sat with her back against the head of the bed. Liu Xiyue cut her hair, looked at Gao Wutong and smiled, Gao Wutong also looked at her and smiled, both of them couldn't tell what they were laughing at, but they both felt very happy. After a while, Liu Xiyue sat on the edge of the bed, her legs swaying, and she looked at Gao Wutong pitifully. Gao Wutong smiled, helped her put on her shoes and helped her out of bed, followed her to the door of the bathroom, and when she came out, she returned to the infusion room together, helped her take off her shoes and helped her to the bed, and lay down with her back against the head of the bed.

"Thank you!" She omitted the word "Teacher Gao" and felt that she was a student.

"You're welcome. It's good to come to your senses. Drink saliva and eat something. ”

Gao Wutong smiled with satisfaction. Liu Xiyue drank a few sips of water, devoured bread, and soon a quarter of a loaf of bread was left. Gao Wutong wanted to remind her to slow down, but the words came to her mouth and swallowed back. Seeing that her complexion was getting better and better, I was relieved again.

"Where did I buy the bread in the middle of the night, it tastes good."

"I bought it when I went out for a walk at half past six, I didn't want to eat it a few days ago, and I bought one last night when I suddenly wanted to eat it, I didn't expect you to like this kind of bread too, it's a coincidence."

Liu Xiyue blushed and handed the rest of the bread to Gao Wutong.

"I'm almost done eating, you can eat some too."

Gao Wutong took two bites and was suddenly stunned.

"Oops, oops!"

"What's wrong?" Liu Xiyue asked urgently.

"Nothing." Gao Wutong blushed.

"Afraid of contracting the virus?"

"It's not good for two people to eat one loaf of bread."

Liu Xiyue glanced at Gao Wutong with disgust, smiled, and took a sip of water.

"I'll sleep a little longer, I'll work hard for you."

After lying down, Liu Xiyue exposed one hand outside the quilt again, and moved her fingers.

Gao Wutong helped her pull the quilt to help cover her hand, and after a while, her hand was exposed again.
