Chapter 255: Send to Hospital
"Xia, Xia Zhi, why are you here?"
Gu Zixi wanted to raise his head, but quickly leaned his face against the pillow and closed his eyes.
Xia Zhi saw that his face was flushed, and hurriedly stepped forward and put his hand on his forehead.
The scorching temperature told him that he had a fever.
Gu Zixi fainted after saying that.
Xia Zhi was stunned for a moment.
Gu Zixi was so sick, it should not be a fever, it has been a while.
Hand fell on his shoulder, and suddenly felt something wrong under his hand.
Gu Ziqi had his back to him just now, and wrapped himself tightly with a quilt, so he couldn't feel that the quilt was loose because he turned over.
His shoulder was exposed, and his hand fell on his shoulder. Although he was wearing clothes, the clothes were covered with blood stains.
Xia Zhi instinctively lifted his quilt, only to find that the whole clothes on his back were stuck to his skin.
Not only were there blood stains, but also light sweat stains and various unspeakable stains.
The main reason was that the clothes were stuck to his back. No wonder when he fell down just now, his back touched the bed and he immediately turned over in pain.
It wasn't that he didn't faint just now, he should have fainted just now, but it was only because of this pain that stimulated him to open his eyes.
Xia Zhi gently lifted his collar with trembling hands, but the clothes and his back were stuck together, and it was impossible to open the clothes.
Even if you can't see the wound, you can think that the wound should be seriously festered.
Xia Zhi rushed out in a hurry.
She quickly came to Director Xia, who was swinging a hammer and smashing stones when he saw Xia Zhi.
"Xiao Xia, why are you here? It's not safe here. You'll get hurt if rocks splash on you."
"Director Xia, Gu Zixi has fainted. He must be sent to the hospital right now."
Director Xia laughed when he heard this.
"Xiao Xia, how do you know Xiao Gu?"
Xia Zhi saw Director Xia's smile and seemed to not take his words seriously. He immediately said seriously,
"Director Xia, Gu Zixi is unconscious now. If you don't send him to the hospital, can you be responsible if someone dies?"
Director Xia was stunned for a moment.
"How is it possible? He just has a few blisters on his back?"
"He has a fever now and is unconscious."
Director Xia threw down the hammer in his hand and walked towards the dormitory, complaining as he walked.
"That young man from the city can't do any heavy work. He has only worked for a few days and his body is either bruised today or injured tomorrow.
I heard that he had blisters on his shoulders these two days.
It's not normal to have a fever. People in our village go through it this way. After the fever is over, it will slowly heal and form scabs.
Everyone has this experience. Why does he need to go to the hospital?
Besides, he doesn't have the money to go to the hospital with his condition!
The little work he did in the quarry in a month didn't even earn enough for his food. He still owed the quarry 1 yuan for food."
"I don't know what the production team leader was thinking. He had to send such a weak scholar to me.
Isn't this bullying? Do you think I want to use him?
Such a person can't work in our quarry."
Probably because of Xia Zhi's identity, the director of the quarry walked into the dormitory.
At this moment, he finally understood when he saw Gu Zixi. The situation was completely different from what he imagined. He didn't expect that Gu Zixi would be so weak.
"But what can we do? The horse and ox carts in our village have gone out to transport stones today. They left in the morning and won't be back until dark."
It's not easy to send patients to the hospital this year, and there is no doctor in the village.
Just then, the sound of a tractor came from outside.
Xia Zhi was delighted and rushed out in a hurry. As expected, he saw Gu Zhaolin and the driver.
"Gu Zhaolin, come and help."
He rushed back to the dormitory and said to Director Xia,
"Director, our tractor is here, just in time to send people to the hospital."
Director Xia hesitated for a moment. Who will pay for the hospital?
No one wants to be a sucker these days. Although he is the director, this is not called a work injury.
If I pay for this myself because Gu Zixi has a fever on his back, and the workers follow suit, will they still work in this quarry?
"Comrade Xia, our quarry has no money on the books now."
"Besides, Gu Zixi's injury is not a work-related injury. We can't pay for it. It's useless to send him to the hospital."
Xia Zhi said nothing, called Gu Zhaolin, and the driver came to help lift Gu Zixi and put him on the tractor, and said while lifting him,
"Okay, Director, I understand what you mean. Gu Zixi's illness is a personal matter. I will pay for it."
When the director heard this, he immediately smiled and said,
"Oh, Comrade Xia, I didn't realize that you are such a kind person.
You are willing to pay for it. This is a good thing. You should go to the hospital.
The fever is so severe. If something happens, it will be bad."
Although he said nice words, he didn't get on the tractor. As the director, he should accompany the patient to the hospital in theory.
It's a pity that Director Xia would not go with him at this time. If he asked him to pay, it would be embarrassing.
So he stretched out his hand and waved towards the factory.
"Li Sangou, come quickly, come and accompany Gu Zixi to the health center, and accompany him back after the treatment. I won't deduct your work points."
A young man ran over in a hurry. Xia Zhi saw that he looked familiar. It was the young man who had led him the way just now.
The young man jumped on the tractor, and their tractor rumbled straight to the county hospital.
When they arrived at the county hospital, they sent the patient directly to the emergency room.
The doctor and the nurse saw that the clothes on his back were stuck to his body, and they couldn't help complaining,
"Why didn't you pay attention all the time? The patient is so serious. Do you know that suppuration can kill people?"
Pour physiological saline on the clothes to slowly melt the clothes and the wound, and finally take off the clothes. The moment he took off the shirt, everyone gasped.
Gu Zixi's back was simply scary. There were many blood blisters of different sizes on his back. Those blood blisters had been worn out, and his back was almost bloody now.
In addition to blood blisters, there was yellow pus and blood from the infected wounds.
It was shocking to see.
The most important thing was that all the wounds were probably infected, and the infected area was quite large. No wonder he had a fever and was unconscious.
The nurses and doctors complained about why they didn't send the patient here earlier while treating the wounds.
Gu Zhaolin stood aside, at a loss, wiping his tears.
He now realized how comfortable his life was.
