After the nurse changed Liu Gen's clothes, she wrapped him tightly in a quilt, treating him as caringly as if she were taking care of a family member. Then she started to put Liu Gen in a hanging bottle, put an ice pack on his head, and together with Chen Hao, wiped him with alcohol cotton balls.
Willow roots are applied to the carotid and femoral arteries, which can lower the body temperature as quickly as possible. It is a common method of physical cooling.
Liu Gen fell into a deep sleep and kept talking nonsense: "Our beef and mutton...are raised from pollution-free pure natural pasture...the price is more than 15% cheaper than that of local slaughter..." He
These nonsense words were the most common words he introduced to clients in the past few days.
The nurse didn't understand and asked Chen Hao: "What is Liu Gen talking about?"
"Business, beef and mutton trade, Brother Gen has been anxious and angry recently, because of business matters..." Chen Hao gave the nurse a rough overview of the situation.
"You go back and change your clothes, otherwise you will fall ill." The nurse advised Chen Hao.
Chen Hao then realized that he was still wet, but he didn't want to leave Liu Gen at this time, so he called the store.
Ouyang Xue didn't go home during the National Day and went to the store every day to help. When Chen Hao called, she happened to listen.
"Liu Gen has a high fever...Which hospital is he in...I know..." Ouyang Xue heard that Liu Gen was ill, put down the phone, and said to the chef in charge of the store: "Chef Niu, Liu Gen is sick and is lying in the hospital with infusions."
, I went to change Mr. Chen and came back, he is still wearing wet clothes." After saying that, he hurried to the outpatient department of the First Affiliated Hospital.
The clerks heard that Liu Gen was ill and were all worried about him. Chef Niu saw that today's buns were almost enough to sell, and told Hao Qiang: "Bring some food to the hospital. Brother Gen and Mr. Chen have been out for a day."
, I probably haven’t eaten yet. In the past few days, Brother Gen has obviously eaten less. With a body like his, how can he not fall ill if he doesn’t eat well?”
Ouyang Xue ran to the outpatient observation room of the hospital almost out of breath. She saw that Liu Gen had an ice pack on his head and was still in a coma with a high fever. There were several blisters on his lips. The usually lively and iron-like man suddenly changed.
Looking like this, she felt sour in her heart and shed tears. She sat in front of the hospital bed where Liu Gen lay, stretched out her hand to touch Liu Gen's cheek, and felt her palms were hot.
"Liu Gen...are you too tired...have a good sleep...if you get enough sleep, your illness will be cured..."
"Ouyang, please take care of Brother Gen for me for a while. I'll go back and change my clothes before I change your clothes." Chen Hao felt sad when he saw Ouyang Xue bursting into tears and saying such thoughtful words.
He knows better than anyone else about being anxious.
Ouyang Xue then wiped away her tears: "Mr. Chen, don't come. I'm here. You should go back and have a good sleep. You and Liu Gen are very tired these days. Go back quickly and I will take care of you."
his."
"Brother Gen didn't eat much at noon, and he might be starving. I'll ask the store to bring him some food later." As Chen Hao was talking, Hao Qiang hurried over with the packed mutton steamed buns.
"Brother Gen... eh... Brother Gen, what is going on... What..." Hao Qiang was shocked when he saw Liu Gen closing his eyes tightly and motionless.
"He was in a coma, and the doctor told him to have a good sleep. When he wakes up, he will be fine," Chen Hao explained.
The nurse came over with a cup in her hand and a spoon in the cup. Seeing Ouyang Xue sitting next to Liu Gen, she handed the cup to her: "Give him some glucose water, I'm afraid he can't eat any food now.
"
"Thank you." Ouyang Xue took the cup from the nurse's hand and began to feed Liu Gen some water with a spoon.
"Brother Gen is so exhausted!" Hao Qiang choked and said, "For us, food is our top priority, Brother Gen, you can't..." He felt that the next words were a little unlucky, so he didn't say them out.
"Let's go, Hao Qiang, Ouyang Xue is here." Chen Hao pulled Hao Qiang and winked, and the two quietly walked out of the ward.
Liu Gen did not open his mouth, and most of the glucose water fed into his mouth basically overflowed from the corners of his mouth, but Ouyang Xue did not give up, and used a spoon to separate his lips as much as possible to feed him.
Liu Gen no longer talked nonsense, he was very quiet, and his breathing was even. The nurse took his temperature again: "It has dropped, thirty-nine degrees."
"Sister, when will he wake up?" Ouyang Xue asked.
"It's hard to say. I heard from the classmate just now that Liu Gen hasn't slept well in the past few days. Maybe he is too tired. Let him sleep well like this. As long as the body temperature drops, he will be fine. Put the thermometer here, and you can do it every other time.
Measure him once in a while. If his temperature rises, call the doctor immediately." The nurse had to be busy with her work and couldn't wait for Liu Gen here. She saw that Ouyang Xue seemed to be Liu Gen's girlfriend, so she felt relieved.
The thermometer remains.
At around eleven o'clock, after the store closed, everyone came. Xiangzi and Zhou Yongheng also came anxiously, but Liu Gen hadn't woken up yet, and his body temperature had dropped to 38 degrees.
"Brother Gen should take a good rest. These days, he and Mr. Chen go out early and come back late, busy running to the market. I watched him lose weight day by day and reminded him to pay more attention to rest, but...
Alas..." Xiangzi said, almost crying.
Those shop assistants, Liu Gen was always very kind to them. Two female shop assistants could not help but shed tears.
"Xiangzi, you all go back. You have to get up early to do business tomorrow. I am enough here." Ouyang Xue persuaded everyone to go back to bed early: "Liu Gen will be fine, everyone goes back, ah."
After finally persuading the employee who was visiting Liu Gen to leave, Ouyang Xue stayed alone with Liu Gen silently, thinking: What can I do for Liu Gen? He has now encountered a hurdle, and I have to help him get over it.
But Ouyang Xue couldn't think of a good way to help Liu Gen. In the past few days, she had also heard that Liu Gen and Chen Hao were running around early in the morning and back late in order to open up the sales market. If she had had some good ideas, she would have
It won't make the willow roots tired like this.
Ouyang Xue suddenly thought of her father and looked at her watch. It was very late, but she still walked out of the observation room, called her father, and told Ouyang Xiong the problems Liu Gen was currently facing.
Just when Ouyang Xue was talking on the phone with her father, Liu Gen woke up. He woke up from hunger.
After his body temperature dropped, he gained an appetite. Liugen, who had not eaten much all day, smelled the aroma of mutton steamed buns in his sleep. This was his favorite. This aroma was so tempting that he could not sleep.
An Wen opened his eyes and saw that he was lying on a hospital bed. The beds around him were filled with people receiving infusions. He smelled the aroma coming from the cabinet beside the bed. When he saw it, he saw that it was packaged mutton steamed buns. He moved his body.
Sitting at the head of the hospital bed, with the hand that was not injecting the intravenous injection, he placed the large plastic bowl containing the mutton steamed buns on the bedside, and used a spoon to scoop out the steamed buns that were almost turning into a paste and put it into his mouth.
of delivery.
After Ouyang Xue finished talking on the phone, her heart suddenly became enlightened. She walked back to the observation room and saw Liu Gen sitting on the bedside, wolfing down food.
"Liu Gen, I just woke up, you can't eat like this! Slow down." He stepped forward and took the spoon from Liu Gen's hand. He looked pale as he did, but with a sweet smile: "My stomach can't bear it."
"Ouyang... you... why are you here? Where is Mr. Chen?" Liu Gen's mouth was full. When he saw Ouyang Xue, he looked behind her. He remembered that he and Chen Hao rushed back to Nanhai in the rain and fell down.
I don't remember anything after that.
"You fell down with a high fever on the way back. It was Chen Hao who sent you to the hospital. I asked him to go back to sleep." Ouyang Xue started feeding Liu Gen with a spoon: "Just now, your employees heard that
You fell ill, and I came to the hospital to see you. I am worried about you." Ouyang Xue fed Liu Gen a few spoonfuls, put it down, and took his temperature again: "Does your head still hurt now? Are your limbs still sore and weak?"
"Haha... I'm fine now. Look at me, as long as I can eat, I'm not sick." Liu Gen laughed and went to get the mutton steamed buns that Ouyang Xue put down to eat.
"Clamp the thermometer and don't drop it. I'll feed you. You are a patient now." Ouyang Xue gently patted Liu Gen's hand and gave him a charming look: "The highest fever is even as high as forty.
It was five at one time!”
"Really? Haha... Darling, this is the highest record in my life." Liu Gen said jokingly, which means that he has basically recovered.
"You can still laugh. Just now, I was so anxious that I died..." Ouyang Xue rolled her eyes at Liu Gen again.
"Did you shed tears for me?" Liu Gen asked in a low voice with a smile.
"No, you are such a ruthless and unjust guy. Anyone who sheds tears for you will be wasted!" Ouyang Xue answered with a burning face as she avoided Liu Gen's eyes.
"But some people just like to shed tears for a heartless guy like me." Liu Gen teased Ouyang Xue. He knew that while he was sleeping, this lovely girl, who was the only kind-hearted person in the world, must have cried and wanted to tease her.
She was happy, which made up for her worries about herself just now.
"Are your brains burned out? You are suddenly talking nonsense. Come on, you loser." If outsiders listened to Ouyang Xue's words, they would definitely think that she was cursing, but to Liu Gen's ears, they felt extremely comfortable.
.
"I woke up so hungry when I smelled the mutton steamed buns that we eat for a long time." Liu Gen chewed the mutton that Ouyang Xue had just fed into his mouth, and said happily: "I really hope I never wake up."
"Look, you're talking nonsense again." Ouyang Xuejiao smiled and rolled her eyes at Liu Gen again: "If you don't wake up, can you taste such delicious mutton steamed buns?"
"That way, you can shed sour water next to me every day." Liu Gen said with a low voice and a chuckle.
"It kills you! What a beautiful thought! I won't be like you said." Ouyang Xue glanced at the people around her, feeling as if everyone in the observation room was eavesdropping on what they were talking about.
A blush appeared, making her look even more charming.
Liu Gen stared blankly at Ouyang Xue's blushing face. The anguish she had felt about business in the past few days seemed to have all disappeared in front of Ouyang Xue. She couldn't help but shout: "Ouyang..."
"Well..." Ouyang Xue looked at Liu Gen and asked, "What's the matter?"
"It's okay, haha..." Liu Gen giggled: "Today's mutton steamed buns are particularly fragrant."
