Chapter 241: It Wasn't Intentional
Clinic
As the doctor cleaned Zhou Chenglei's wound, he didn't even blink, but Jiang Xia couldn't help but avert her gaze.
Zhou Chenglei had been paying attention to Jiang Xia and said, "Are you going to wait outside for me?"
Jiang Xia turned her head and glanced at him.
Zhou Chenglei: "..."
Forget it, he'd better not say anything!
The doctor cleaned the wound and said, "The wound is deep, and if it's a sailfish sting, the wound inside will be narrow. You need a tetanus shot to prevent inflammation and the need for an IV drip. You may have a fever tonight or tomorrow, and there's been some blood loss, so it's recommended to stay in the hospital for observation for a day."
"No need, I'll go home..."
Jiang Xia turned and glared at him.
Zhou Chenglei: "Okay! Doctor, if you say stay in the hospital, I'll stay. Whatever number of days you say, I'll stay; whatever shots you say, I'll take; whatever medicine you say, I'll take. I'll cooperate with the doctor's treatment!"
The doctor was very satisfied!
He loved obedient patients the most.
Jiang Xia was also satisfied!
Jiang Xia added, "Doctor, whatever nutritional injections, tetanus shots, or rabies vaccines, if you think it's necessary, give him the shots!"
Zhou Chenglei: "..."
Even the doctor couldn't help but smile: "Rabies vaccines are for dog bites or animal bites and scratches."
A little nurse next to the doctor also smiled: "Fish usually don't carry the rabies virus."
Jiang Xia: "I suspect he was bitten by a dog or scratched or bitten by other animals before and didn't get the shot!"
Zhou Chenglei: "..."
He had indeed been bitten by a dog, but that was many years ago!
Jiang Xia understood from his expression and said, "Take the shot, you must take it!"
Zhou Chenglei nodded: "Yes, take it! I was bitten by a dog before."
Growing up in the village, how could there be a boy who hasn't been bitten by cats or dogs?
But probably only he got the rabies vaccine!
Not only had he been bitten by a dog, but he had also been scratched by a cat. When he was young, he went to the fields to catch mice and snakes, and he had also been bitten by mice and snakes!
In addition, he had been stung by hornets and bees.
He had been bitten by fish, shrimp, and crabs the most, but he didn't need shots...
Forget it, just take the shots!
Whatever she said, he would do.
Her eyes were as powerful as an atomic bomb!
After the doctor finished dressing Zhou Chenglei's wound, they moved to the ward.
Jiang Xia glanced at the sky and then at her watch; it was already past six.
Worried that the shops outside might close in the dark, she said, "Stay here and rest. I'll go buy some food."
As soon as Zhou Chenglei heard this, he lifted his leg to get out of bed: "I'll go with you."
Jiang Xia shot him another glare.
Zhou Chenglei helplessly said, "..." I'm injured on the shoulder, not the leg."
After being injured, he still managed to pull up that net of fish.
This injury was really not a big deal!
"Stay here! Moving around will cause you to sweat, which is not good for the wound. I'll go to the seafood noodle shop we went to last time, and I'll be back soon."
Zhou Chenglei had no choice but to nod.
Jiang Xia hurried out.
After Jiang Xia left the ward, Zhou Chenglei waited for a minute and then quickly got out of bed and followed her.
As Jiang Xia walked past the operating room, she saw Wen Wan and Zhou Bingqiang's family.
Jiang Xia also noticed the bloodstains on Zhou Bingqiang.
The soundproofing in the operating room seemed inadequate, as she could hear someone inside shouting in pain.
"Doctor, it hurts, please be gentle..."
Jiang Xia recognized the voice as Zhou Guohua's.
So, Zhou Guohua was also stung by a sailfish?
What a coincidence! Jiang Xia didn't pay much attention and hurried outside.
Zhou Bingqiang saw Jiang Xia and asked with concern, "Is Ah Lei okay?"
"
Jiang Xia heard this and asked, "What's wrong? Who's inside?"
Jiang Xia politely inquired.
They were from the same village, and Zhou Chenglei's father was of the same generation, so it would be impolite not to respond.
"It's Zhou Guohua. He was also injured by the sailfish, and he has three blood holes on his body!" Zhou Bingqiang shuddered as he recalled the scene.
"Remember to ask the doctor for a tetanus shot. I'll go out and buy some food first, or the shops will close soon." Jiang Xia didn't bother explaining much to the other party and left after saying this.
Wen Wan watched Jiang Xia's departing figure, deep in thought.
She was on her way home for the National Day vacation when she happened to meet the village tractor on the road, carrying Zhou Guohua, who was covered in blood, to the town clinic. As his daughter-in-law, she naturally followed along.
Wen Wan asked Zhou Bingqiang, "Was Zhou Chenglei also injured by the sailfish?"
"Yes, he was also stung by the fish. It's our fault for involving him," Zhou Bingqiang said, feeling guilty.
Wen Wan looked at him in surprise.
Zhou Bingqiang briefly explained the situation.
Zhou Guohua had caught a sailfish, and the moment it was reeled in, it flew towards Zhou Guohua!
Zhou Guohua reacted quickly and dodged it.
The sailfish fell back into the water.
But unexpectedly, the sailfish was temperamental! After returning to the water, it flew up again after a while.
This time, Zhou Guohua didn't dodge, and he was injured.
Zhou Guohua instinctively threw the fish back into the sea.
After a while, it flew up again.
And this time, it wasn't just one, but two sailfish!
Who could have expected two sailfish? Sailfish are already known for their ferocity and speed.
With so many flying up together, Zhou Guohua was busy examining his own wound, and he was injured again!
And he was stabbed twice, creating two blood holes!
He grabbed the tails of the two sailfish, intending to throw them onto the boat to kill them, but he missed, and they fell back into the water.
Zhou Bingqiang, fearing that the sailfish would continue to pursue them, quickly accelerated the boat to get away.
The two sailfish indeed leaped out of the water, chasing after them.
However, because the boat turned slightly, the sailfish also veered off, and no one was injured.
But for some reason, the two sailfish continued to pursue them relentlessly.
In the chaos, Zhou Bingqiang somehow ended up steering the boat towards the direction of Zhou Chenglei's boat.
Their boat was docked there, with no one on board.
Zhou Chenglei and Zhou Chengxin had just finished feeding the fish in the sea.
Zhou Bingqiang took a quick glance and then swiftly steered his boat away.
At that moment, Zhou Chenglei and Zhou Chengxin had just finished feeding the fish and saw two fish approaching at high speed. They quickly climbed back onto the boat.
Just as they had climbed onto the boat, one of the fish flew towards Zhou Chengxin.
Zhou Chenglei pulled Zhou Chengxin to dodge, but he couldn't avoid the next fish that flew up, only managing to protect his vital areas.
Zhou Bingqiang briefly explained to Wen Wan, "It's my fault. If I hadn't steered the boat in that direction, nothing would have happened."
Wen Wan reassured him, "It's not your fault. There was no one on the boat when you passed by, and you quickly steered away. It wasn't intentional."
Just then, they saw Zhou Chenglei approaching.
Wen Wan: "..."
Zhou Bingqiang hastily said, "A-Lei, are you okay? I'm really sorry about this. Your uncle will cover your medical expenses."
Zhou Chenglei replied calmly, "I lost a lot of blood and need to be hospitalized. Please have my uncle settle the medical fees."
After saying this, he walked out.
He was about to ask the doctor for some health supplements to bring back for Jiang Xia.
