Chapter 263 Save the Child
Chapter 263 Save the Child
Nanny Liu was already at a loss. On one side was a baby who had just been born without a breath, and on the other side was her wife who had fainted from the shock of giving birth. Two lives were definitely at stake!
I felt like I couldn't bear it anymore and I wished I could faint.
Shen Nanzhi first looked at his wife, who had just fainted. He could still delay for a while, so he saved the child first.
She cleaned the child's mouth and nose with hot water, then patted the child's feet a few times. If there was no response, she pinched his buttocks. Aunt Liu was terrified: "You, don't mess with the child's body. He's gone. Let him go in peace."
"I'm saving people here. How can I give up without trying? Do I look like a pervert torturing corpses to you?"
"Ah, you, you can save her?"
"Try it. Wipe Madam's body and clean her up. Don't just stand there and watch."
When she is busy, she won't pay attention to herself. Shen Nanzhi assigned her work.
"Oh, okay, I still have to serve my wife. Madam, you have to be good. You haven't even seen the young master yet. My poor woman..."
Shen Nanzhi ignored her and performed CPR on the child, blowing air into his mouth and nose. Aunt Liu's hands were shaking and she was shocked. She didn't dare to say a word for fear of delaying her treatment.
This child was born prematurely after all, weighing about four or five pounds, really as big as a cat. He didn't react at all despite all the tossing and turning.
Shen Nanzhi was not a professional doctor. She had just watched documentaries and some videos of how children were handled in delivery rooms. She had also heard from friends about some neonatal first aid, so she decided to give it a try.
None of this has any effect. This child is probably not lucky enough to live in this world.
Just when she was about to give up, she remembered that there was an emergency injection in the space, which was originally reserved for her. She was old, and in case she fainted or something, she would at least try to save him first. After all, the farm was dozens of kilometers away from the hospital.
Let's give it a try. I quietly took out the first aid injection from the space and gave it a little on the child's butt. I didn't dare to use more because he was a newborn after all.
After using the injection, she continued to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation. This time it was effective. The child cried out, although it was very weak, like a kitten, but it made Shen Nanzhi breathe a sigh of relief.
As long as it can breathe, it's good. As long as it survives, we can find a way to raise it slowly.
Aunt Liu cried with joy: "She's really alive. How come you're a girl?"
"I am a girl, otherwise why would I come in to take care of a woman who has just given birth? I am afraid that it will ruin the lady's reputation. I am not such an ignorant person.
I just disguised myself as a man to make it easier for me to go out."
"Hello young lady, thank you for saving the lady and the young master. You are the savior of our family."
"How is the lady?"
"Still in a coma. There's nothing I can do without a doctor."
"Go out and make some ginseng soup first. I'll take care of this for a while. I suspect there's something wrong with those two guards. You can handle them."
Madam Liu said angrily, "They are traitors. They said the road was safe and would not delay the trip. Madam was harmed by them. I will not forgive them."
After Nanny Liu went out, Shen Nanzhi used the remaining injections on Madam, aiming to avoid wasting any.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but the lady’s breathing has become heavier and her chest is rising and falling faster. That should be a good thing, right?
The child cried weakly and curled up with his little body trembling. He was cold. It was freezing cold and the carriage was not warm enough. Shen Nanzhi waved his hand and threw the child into the space.
The temperature in this space is always the most comfortable temperature for the human body. The air is also good, so there is no need to worry about freezing. It is also good for children to keep them in it.
If it were modern times, such a child would probably be kept in an incubator. Poor child, he suffers so much.
Madam is still sleeping. Sleeping is the best treatment for her at this time.
Shen Nanzhi walked out, left the official road first, and found a proper place to settle down. After all, staying in this desolate wilderness was not a solution.
As soon as I came out, I saw two guards pushing Nanny Liu away and turning around to run away. Shen Changan and the others didn't react and were in a daze.
Shen Nanzhi subconsciously took out two daggers from his boots and threw them out, hitting the two men in the back. The two men screamed and fell down.
Shen Changan just remembered to chase them and dragged them up, "You still dare to run? You deserve to be beaten to death."
Shen Changxing was also very angry. He really let them take advantage of him without paying attention. He felt a little ashamed. They were so useless.
Shen Nanzhi got off the carriage, and her cold eyes made everyone shudder. This girl was so cruel, she just killed people directly.
"Is he dead?"
Shen Changan touched his nose and was shocked: "No, no breath, dead."
"Ah, dead."
Shen Nanzhi snorted coldly: "Those who betray their master deserve to die. Why are you shouting?"
Ma Liu covered her chest and sat down trembling. The unexpected things happened one after another which made her a little overwhelmed. How could someone die?
Shen Nanzhi ordered again: "Cook rice and boil water, everyone should eat and drink enough, hurry up and find a place to stay as soon as possible. We can do it in the wilderness, but my wife and children can't."
"All is up to the young lady."
After Madam Liu gave the order, everyone got busy and soon cooked a pot of sweet potato porridge. Shen Changan took out his own pickles and shared them with them. Everyone's eyes lit up as they ate. This sweet porridge was so delicious.
Even the two maids ate two big bowls of food, even though they usually have small stomachs.
Shen Changan was a little speechless. All his kimchi had been eaten up. This maid was so rude and didn't treat her as an outsider.
Shen Nanzhi was playing with Zhao Jie'er and found it funny. This cousin Chang'an hadn't gotten his way yet. The maid was only fifteen or sixteen years old, pretty and charming, but he actually felt sorry for his own pickles. He would probably regret it when he thought about it later, right?
"Are my mother and brother okay?"
"It's okay, your mother needs to rest, and your brother is sleeping. Can you wait until they are better before going to see them, Zhao Jie?"
Now eat well, drink well, take care of yourself, and don't cause trouble for the maids, then you are a good child."
"Yes, I know. Sister Zhao is the most sensible. Thank you, auntie. What's your name, auntie?"
"My last name is Shen, Shen Nanzhi. You can call me Sister Shen instead of Auntie. It sounds old."
"Okay, Sister Shen, you are so awesome, do you know martial arts?"
Just now, she saw Shen Nanzhi swinging a dagger to kill someone, but she was not afraid at all. Children can sometimes have a strong ability to withstand stress.
"Yes, women are weak by nature, so they need to learn many skills to protect themselves so that they won't be bullied."
Zhao Jieer admired her very much, "Can I learn martial arts from you?"
"You need your mother's approval for this. My martial arts skills are not that good. If your mother wants you to learn, she can find a powerful martial arts master to teach you. You don't have to learn from me."
The main reason is that she doesn't know how to teach, and she does many things instinctively, as if they are buried in her memory and can only be triggered passively.
The corners of Aunt Liu's lips trembled, and she wanted to tell Shen Nanzhi not to teach the child bad things. How could their young lady learn martial arts?
How will I get married in the future?
But she didn't dare, because Miss Shen had saved their family several times. Without Miss Shen, they would probably have died here.
