Live broadcast: I am an upright Chinese medicine practitioner, and all my patients died online
Chapter 823 Doctor, My Headache
Qin Jiang sat there twirling his ballpoint pen. He could finally rest once the patient was gone. His biggest wish was for the patient to be healthy.
Qin Jiang yawned as a little girl walked in, her eyes brimming with tears and carrying her schoolbag.
"Doctor, may I use my New Year's money to have you treat my illness? I don't dare tell my stepmother. If I tell her, she won't treat me and she'll abandon me."
His clothes were dirty and had several holes, but he could only awkwardly cover them with his small hands. However, while he could cover one area, he couldn't cover another.
After seeing the child's posture, Qin Jiang first had the child sit in a chair.
Netizens were stunned. What era is this? There are still people wearing ripped clothes.
“I just heard the child mention his stepmother. Even if she is a stepmother, she can’t be so heartless. I am also a stepmother, so I don’t usually take care of the child, but I can still make sure he is fed and clothed.”
"My God, a little kid came to see a doctor all by himself, and all he got as New Year's money was a few dollars. How pitiful!"
"Could it be that some internet celebrity deliberately came here to gain traffic? But I don't think it's possible. If they were deliberately here to gain traffic, they shouldn't be using a child as a nest. After all, children are so innocent. If someone uses a child as a nest, that would be too much."
Everyone was discussing it in the comments section, while the little girl was holding her head, looking extremely distressed.
After seeing the little girl's behavior, Qin Jiang told her to put her hands on the table.
"Put your hand here first, let me see what disease you have."
The little girl stretched out her thin arm. He couldn't hold on any longer, so he had to come to the doctor. His grandmother had died last month. Before she died, she never saw a doctor and left him all the money she had.
But his stepmother took all the money, so he could only bring the few dollars of New Year's money he had hidden away.
After reading it, Qin Jiang's face turned very pale. He hadn't expected the little girl's illness to be so complicated; it was congenital leukemia.
Besides headaches, she also experienced vomiting and nausea. It seems this little girl is truly someone who always finds a way to break, and who is destined for misfortune.
"Uncle, is there a problem with my illness? Can it be cured? Am I going to die soon? If I die, will I be able to see my grandma? My grandma has already passed away, but she said that when I grow up properly, I will be able to see her."
The little girl blinked her eyes, looking incredibly innocent, and Qin Jiang didn't know how to answer her.
Many netizens are urging him on, and Qin Jiang feels his mouth is dry.
If the child is left here for treatment, he can be cured, but the child is still young, and he cannot be the child's guardian, nor does he have the right to leave the child here.
"Where is your father? Could you bring him here? This illness is not something a child like you can control. And if you call your father here, perhaps he can take care of you."
“My dad has gone out to work. If he can’t pay the bills every month, my stepmother will be angry. My dad told me to listen to my stepmother at home, but if I call my stepmother over, she won’t let me see a doctor.”
The little girl didn't know what to do. She had been speaking clearly and logically, but suddenly she put her schoolbag down on the stool next to her, knelt down, and kowtowed to Qin Jiang. "Please don't tell my stepmother, okay? Otherwise, Dad will get scolded too, and I won't have a good outcome either. Please, my biological mother is already dead."
After hearing the child's story, many people felt their hearts were breaking.
This is really a difficult problem to solve.
"But you have to come here for treatment every day, so what can you do?"
"Uncle, don't worry, my stepmother won't care whether I go back or not. She'd rather I die out there. I can stay here for medical treatment, but there's nowhere to stay. Could you please set up a box for me under your room? I can sleep in the box."
“I can also pick up food from the garbage cans outside. I will never waste the food here. Please take me in. I go to school during the day and come here for treatment at night.”
His eyes were full of expectation. Qin Jiang looked at the child, picked up a tissue from the side, and quickly turned his back.
No one could have imagined that the child was so pitiful. What kind of stepmother would abandon her child like this? And was this second marriage even necessary?
Rather than that, it would be better to keep the child with you.
After wiping away her tears, Qin Jiang pointed to the small bed next to her and said, "You can sleep on that bed from now on. But for now, let this director take you to take a shower and change you into clean clothes. After school, you can come to my place."
"You don't need to look for food in the trash can. We have plenty of leftover food here every day. It was originally meant for stray dogs, but since you're here, you can come and get some food from here."
Although the child is still young, Qin Jiang knows that the child has his own self-esteem; otherwise, he wouldn't have arranged everything so clearly before the child even spoke.
Qin Jiang's arrangements brought a bright smile to the little girl's face. She thanked him profusely and left with the director.
"The child has congenital leukemia, you don't need to ask anymore. This disease requires a long time to treat, and he has already shown symptoms. Most importantly, he is vomiting quite severely now."
"I will find a way to treat him, don't worry. I won't charge a penny for medical fees, and you don't need to donate. I will take care of everything for the child."
"As for the adoption of the child mentioned in your comments section, the child's father is still alive, so adoption is not possible and the conditions for adoption are not met. Besides, we can't think of any other way to support him in the future. Let's focus on getting him medical treatment first."
As long as the child's parents exist in this world, no one can take care of another's child. Even if Qin Jiang wanted to, he didn't have the ability.
Moreover, he might be reported. Although he felt sorry for the child, he also knew his limits.
Many people who want to adopt a child are heartbroken; such an obedient child, yet the parents don't care about him.
And most importantly, the pain this child is experiencing is truly heartbreaking; it almost breaks your heart. (End of Chapter)
