My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s

Chapter 252: Chapter 245: A Girl Named Lin Falls from the Sky

On the third day, Miss Jin came quite early, though to her surprise, her students were even earlier than her.

Moreover, Tang Yuxin and her friends were there every day. She couldn’t help but laugh as she watched them from the window.

No wonder Teacher Song didn’t seem herself after seeing her. It’s because her class didn’t want to join hers. She didn’t feel that Class Five was superior. The children in that classroom were all turning into robots, only caring about their own studies and their own academic results. But that wasn’t good for their future.

Don’t underestimate these poor students in their class. Yes, the students from Class Five will later get into Nanqing University, Qing University, Beijing University, and then later maybe graduate school. They might even end up working in the companies owned by her former students.

Of course, all of this is a joke.

However, Miss Jin was unaware that these jokes would come true in the future.

But that’s a talk for another time. By the time they meet again, it would be more than a decade later. By then, everything would have changed too rapidly, and some things may occur beyond their wildest dreams.

Tang Yuxin had just returned to the Xu Family when she received a call from Tang Zhinian.

“Dad…” She shouted joyfully, having not seen him for some time. She knew her father was busy trying to move the business from out of town back home so that he could spend more time in Qing’an.

However, having been in business for so long, his connections and opportunities were all over the place, making it hard to leave. Otherwise, Tang Zhinian, who treated his daughter like a princess, couldn’t possibly leave her here, barely seeing her.

“Yuxin, I’m back.”

The sound of his daughter’s voice instantly lit up Tang Zhinian’s face with a smile.

“Ah, you’re back?” Tang Yuxin clutched the phone, “Where are you, Dad? I’ll come home in a bit.”

“Uh…” Tang Zhinian’s voice faltered on the phone.

“Yuxin, your father…”

Tang Yuxin had never seen Tang Zhinian like this, unable to spit out his words. It seemed like he was too embarrassed to say something, or it was too hard to tell. Had he found her a stepmother?

If he really found her a stepmother, she wouldn’t mind.

Anyway, Tang Zhinian couldn’t explain well over the phone. You should come home, then you’ll understand.

“Okay,” Tang Yuxin hung up the phone, packed her bag, and got ready to go home.

After telling Aunt Xu, she hurried home. The two houses were not far apart. It would take about twenty minutes to walk from their city house. If they took the bus, it would be even faster, but there were no buses at that time. Probably by the time buses were available, it would be the second half of the year, and by then, the house they bought there would probably be demolished.

Tang Yuxin arrived at the door, took out the key from her bag, turned the lock, and the door creaked open.

“Yuxin, you’re back?”

There stood Tang Zhinian in the living room, as if he had been waiting for his daughter. He was still the same person as before, but he was dressed more smartly now, which made him seem very energetic.

Tang Zhinian was a handsome man with a symmetrical face. Now he was in his middle age and had aged slow these past few years because he did not farm. Having travelled north and south, he had wide experience and vision, which brought him a savvy air. He was an attractive middle-aged man, well, not too old. He wasn’t even forty yet.

“Yuxin, come here,” Tang Zhinian took his daughter’s hand and pulled open a door.

Tang Yuxin stepped in and was immediately hit by a strong medicinal odor. Her nose was very sensitive to all sorts of smells nowadays. She could sometimes tell apart different medicines by intuition.

Someone? A woman, judging from her breathing.

As she walked in, she found a woman laid out on her bed, unconscious. She looked about thirty years old and was so skinny that she looked like a bag of bones. She was pitifully thin.

Her head was wrapped in bandages, and her face was an ugly shade of pale, tinged with a sickly greenish-gray.

She walked over, reached out, and grabbed the woman’s wrist. The moment she clasped it, she felt a cold chill. This wasn’t like holding a human wrist, it felt like holding a pig’s bone wrapped in a thin layer of skin.

The woman’s pulse was weak.

This woman wasn’t in a good state. If she was treated with Western medical methods, she would have been put on a drip to hang on to life.

How is she? Tang Zhinian wiped sweat off his forehead. Can she be saved?

Yes, she still can. If it had been Tang Yuxin from her previous life, she might not have been recoverable. But in this life, after learning the Chen family’s medical skills with a goal of maintaining good health, her chances of recovery would be better.

To sum it up, this woman wasn’t ill. She just didn’t want to live. It was that simple.

“Dad, where did you find this person?” Tang Yuxin tucked the woman’s skeletal arm back under the blankets. She needed to go back to the Li Tang Village and bring back some stuff.

Tang Zhinian looked upwards.

Then he pointed his finger up.

“She fell from the building above.”

“Oh, a fairy who fell from the sky.”

Tang Yuxin tried to visualize it. “This flying fairy, the building wasn’t high, was it?”

“Not too bad, highest is the sixth floor.”

“Oh…” Tang Yuxin imagined the situation at the time, she was really lucky. It was the sixth floor, maybe something broke her fall. If it had been a building with over thirty floors, she would have shattered her bones.

“Then, does this have anything to do with Dad?” She hoped it wouldn’t be her honest father who had driven the woman to jump off the building.

“Well…” Tang Zhinian wasn’t sure how to phrase his answer. “She aimed to fall on me, but I dodged and she ended up hitting the ground. Do you think if I had caught her, she wouldn’t be in this state?”

“Yes, she wouldn’t be in this state,” Tang Yuxin picked up her father’s words, “Instead, she’d have crushed you to death, leaving me an orphan with no one to care for me, no one to love me. I’d be left like a helpless lone cabbage in a field.”

Tang Zhinian wasn’t sure whether to laugh or cry at this. He looked somewhat awkward.

Tang Yuxin stood up and glanced at the half-dead woman on her bed, who was as skinny as a ghost. Her eyes squinted into slits. It’s a good thing you didn’t fall on my dad. If you had crippled him, even if you didn’t die, I would have killed you.
