Help
Ye Ling was taken aback and quickly asked, “What happened?”
“Our neighbor, Aunt Hua, suddenly went into labor today. My mother went over to help early in the morning, but Aunt Hua started bleeding heavily. It’s raining heavily today, and we don’t know when the midwife will arrive. My mother is worried that Aunt Hua won’t be able to hold on, so she thought of you, Sister Lingling, who knows medicine. That’s why she asked me to come and ask you.” Wan Xue panted heavily as he quickly explained the basic situation.
Ye Ling immediately said, “Wait for me, we’ll go over and take a look.”
Ye Ling returned to her room and pulled out a set of silver needles from her suitcase, carefully tucking them into her clothes.
This set of silver needles was used by her mother. Before her mother passed away, she entrusted them to Ye Ling. Ye Ling had been keeping it secret from her father.
Soon after, Ye Ling and Wan Xue dashed into the pouring rain. Their figures quickly blurred, as if being swallowed by the storm.
They hurriedly arrived at Aunt Hua’s house, where a young girl about the same age as Wan Xue stood at the door. As soon as she saw Wan Xue and Ye Ling, she immediately exclaimed, “They’re here!”
Sun Li opened the door anxiously, her hands and clothes stained with blood. When she saw Ye Ling, Sun Li hurriedly asked, “Lingling, do you know how to treat severe bleeding in a pregnant woman? It’s not that I don’t trust you, but this is a matter of life and death. Don’t force yourself.”
Ye Ling calmly replied, “Auntie, let me first assess Aunt Hua’s condition.”
“Okay, come in quickly.”
Upon entering the house, Ye Ling immediately detected the strong smell of blood.
Aunt Hua’s cries of pain sounded weak, indicating her depleted strength. It was not a good sign.
Ye Ling pulled out Aunt Hua’s wrist and pressed her finger on her pulse, her expression serious and focused as she conducted a preliminary diagnosis.
“How is she? Do you have a solution?” Sun Li asked nervously.
Ye Ling released her hand, her expression much calmer now. She tucked Aunt Hua’s hand back under the blanket and said simply, “I have a way to address the bleeding issue, but I don’t know how to deliver a baby. Auntie, we need to find a midwife as soon as possible.”
Hearing Ye Ling’s words, Sun Li was both surprised and relieved. She nodded hastily, “The midwife should be here soon.”
Outside the door, Aunt Hua’s husband, filled with worry and doubt, questioned Sun Li, “Sister Sun, can this young girl handle it? She can’t treat my wife casually!”
Sun Li’s emotions were also in turmoil. Aunt Hua had been her close friend for many years, and she was more concerned about her well-being than anyone else. As for Ye Ling’s medical skills, Sun Li didn’t know much, but she believed that Ye Ling must be capable. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have had the courage to save Xiao Hu in front of everyone.
“Shut up! If you think you can handle it, then come and do it yourself!” In this critical situation, Sun Li decided to trust Ye Ling and retorted against Aunt Hua’s husband. She then turned to Ye Ling and said, “Lingling, I believe in you!”
Ye Ling already presented the silver needles and said to Sun Li, “Auntie, I’ll begin now. You should leave first. Try not to let the people outside make loud noises. It can make the pregnant woman anxious.”
Sun Li complied and left. Ye Ling took a deep breath and picked up the silver needles.
Acupuncture was one of the Ye family’s most proficient methods of treating illnesses and saving lives. Since she was young, Ye Ling had often witnessed her grandfather and mother using acupuncture to heal others. As she grew older, her grandfather taught her some basic acupuncture techniques. With an elderly person and a young child frequently using acupuncture on each other, Ye Ling overcame her fear of needles and gained a preliminary understanding of several hundred vital acupuncture points in the human body.
Although Ye Ling had not performed acupuncture on a patient before, she remained calm and composed. She knew precisely which acupuncture points to stimulate for treatment. She had already mastered the art of acupuncture.
The silver needles swiftly pierced specific acupuncture points, and soon Aunt Hua’s pained expression eased considerably.
Ye Ling removed the silver needles and gently massaged a few acupuncture points, providing Aunt Hua with some relief. She then advised, “Auntie Hua, the bleeding has stopped. The midwife will arrive soon. For now, please refrain from exerting yourself and conserve your energy.”
Aunt Hua, her face covered in sweat, nodded and hoarsely expressed her gratitude, saying, “Thank you.”
Ye Ling pushed open the door and saw the crowd gathered outside. She announced, “The bleeding has stopped. I can’t handle anything beyond this.”
Sun Li was overjoyed and held an even greater admiration for Ye Ling. She knew just how dangerous the situation had been, yet Ye Ling resolved the issue so quickly.
Aunt Hua’s husband let out a long sigh of relief and promptly thanked Ye Ling.
