In the middle of the winter night, the sky was covered with snow, and the sky was freezing cold. In a small medical clinic on the long street of the capital city of Hunan, Wu Dexuan and his wife went to bed early, when they suddenly heard a rapid knock on the door...

"Dexuan, Dexuan, wake up..."

Wu Shi pushed her husband Wu Dexuan.

Wu Dexuan was startled, and opened his sleepy eyes, "Well, what's wrong?"

"Someone is knocking on the door, get up and have a look." Wu Shi hastily dressed and got out of bed.

"Is it okay for someone to come to the emergency room at such a late hour?"

Wu Dexuan got out of bed in a daze and put on his shoes.Wu put a big coat on him again.

"Come on, come on, don't shoot."

Wu Dexuan put on his clothes as he walked.Wu Shi lit the oil lamp in the room again, took it and followed him to the front hall.

"Who is this..."

The door just opened half a foot, and a white "snowman" squeezed in abruptly.

Wu Dexuan was startled, and suddenly lost all sleepiness. After a closer look, he found that it was a young woman wearing a cloak, with a thin layer of snow on her head. She looked flustered, and closed the door tightly when she came in. , and then knelt down to Wu Dexuan with a "plop", lowered his voice and hurriedly said:

"Doctor Wu, please save the child, please save the child."

"child?"

Wu Dexuan was taken aback for a moment, only to find that she was still holding a big package tightly in her arms.

"Girl, get up and talk."

Mrs. Wu hastily stepped forward to help her up, stretched out his hand to open the bundle in her arms, and sure enough, a small face of a child was revealed, who looked only five months old.But seeing that child's face was pale, his lips were blue and purple, his eyes were closed tightly and he was neither crying nor fussing.

Wu Dexuan stretched out his finger and put it under the child's nose, his complexion changed, "Why is this child's breath so weak, I'm afraid it won't work."

Upon hearing this, the woman became more flustered and said anxiously:

"Doctor Wu, please save her, save her..."

Having said that, regardless of whether they agreed or not, they stuffed the child into Wu's arms.

He took another ingot of gold from his pocket, put it on the table, and said:

"The child will stay here for the time being. I would like to trouble Dr. Wu. You should keep the money first, and I will thank you in the future. Don't tell anyone about what happened today, and I hope you two will keep it a secret. I'll come back tomorrow night."

After saying that, he turned and opened the door and walked out.

This woman speaks fast and walks even faster.After Wu Dexuan came to his senses, he ran to the door, but only saw the back of the woman walking away in a hurry.

Wu was holding the child with a blank expression on his face, "What's going on? She just left like this?"

"Well, let's go." Wu Dexuan's eyes were also full of confusion.

"Just now, what happened?"

"do not know."

The husband and wife stood there in a daze and looked at each other. If it wasn't for the fact that they were holding a real child in their arms and the golden ingot on the table, they would have thought that they had just had a dream.

Looking at the child, Wu Dexuan frowned.

"Why don't we show the child first?" Wu asked.

Wu Dexuan smiled wryly, "Everyone is staying, what else can we do? We can't just let the child die here."

Looking at the child's pale face, Wu Dexuan sighed softly: "Forget it, since it's here, let it be at ease, and let Doctor Wu come and see what's going on with you little brat."

"It's cold outside, don't freeze the child, let's go to the back room."

"it is good."

……

Acupuncture, decoction, and medicine feeding, the husband and wife have been busy all night long, and at dawn the next day, the child finally opened his eyes. A pair of black crystal-like pupils shone with a bright luster. Staring at Mrs. Wu, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, her small mouth opened, as if she wanted to speak.

"Amitabha, wake up." Wu finally heaved a sigh of relief and showed a comforting smile.

"Sanggong, look at this fair and pretty girl."

Wu Dexuan tapped his sore waist, leaned over to look at it, "Well, she must be a handsome girl in the future."

Mrs. Wu hugged the baby and liked it very much, "Sir, go and cook some rice porridge."

"Hey, here we go."

……

The woman did come the next night.

After entering the door, Wu Dexuan and his wife led him into the inner room. Seeing that the child had woken up, the woman was full of joy and thanked her repeatedly.

Wu Dexuan said: "The child is suffering from pneumonia. I have already prepared the medicine. I decoct it and give it to her every day. The child is weak and it is cold. She needs to dress warmly. Let her bask in the sun more. The room needs more space." Ventilate."

"Oh...Doctor Wu, that's right,"

The woman hesitated, "I can't take her back for the time being. Since the child hasn't recovered yet, let's stay in the infirmary first, and it will be convenient for treatment." At this point, she took out a bag from her sleeve and put it on the table.

"I'll pick her up again in a few days, I'll be there for you two."

After saying that, he saluted with his forehead, then turned around and left, leaving only Wu Dexuan and his wife holding the child in their arms, standing there stupidly, the same scene, the same mood.

Wu Dexuan went to the table and opened the bag, and poured out three ingots of gold...

More than a month later, late at night, the woman came to the clinic again.

First, he went to the inner room with Wu Dexuan and his wife to see the child, suddenly tears came to his eyes, then he knelt straight down and saluted the two of them.

Mrs. Wu hastily stretched out her hands to help her, but the woman refused to get up and said:

"The little girl is the child's nurse, but due to family accidents, she is unable to continue to take care of her. After many inquiries, I learned that Dr. Wu has extraordinary medical skills, Mrs. Wu has a good nature, and the two of you were not originally from the capital. Heir, now the little girl begs the two of you to take this child in and bring her up, the little girl is extremely grateful."

After saying that, I bowed down deeply.

Wu Dexuan's complexion gradually became serious, and he asked:

"Girl, where are the parents of this child?"

The woman's body shook slightly, tears kept falling like broken pearls, she just shook her head silently.

"So it's an orphan." Wu sighed softly.

The woman bowed deeply again, choked with sobs and said, "I implore Doctor Wu to take this child in, it will also give the child a way out."

Seeing her kneeling on the ground crying into tears, Wu couldn't bear it, looked at her husband Wu Dexuan, and said in a low voice:

"Sir, look at how pitiful this child is without a father and mother. I'm not in good health and have no blessings to give birth to. Why not..."

Wu Dexuan looked at the sleeping child, and then looked at his wife's expectant eyes. He knew that his wife had grown fond of the child these days. It is not necessarily a bad thing for the child to fall around the knee.Thinking of this, he said:

"Doctor, Ren Ye, such a small child will not be able to survive without anyone to rely on. In that case, leave this child to my husband and wife."

Hearing this, the woman burst into tears with gratitude, thanked her again and again, and then stood up.

Staring deeply at the child's sleeping face, he put a green jade pendant in the swaddle, tears could not stop falling, and choked up, saying:

"Please don't tell this matter, both of you, and treat it as your own daughter."

Wu Dexuan raised his forehead and said: "That's natural, you can rest assured, since my husband and I have promised you, we will definitely keep our promise."

"It's just that the little girl still has an unfeeling request. The two of you have an extra child out of thin air. It will inevitably be questioned by outsiders. I implore Doctor Wu to take her away. The farther the better, the better. Don't go back to the capital."

"Leaving the capital?"

Wu Dexuan was a little surprised by the woman's request, and felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Undoubted firmness flashed in the tearful eyes of the woman, "Yes, I will leave tomorrow, and the carriage will be waiting outside the city."

"Tomorrow?" Wu Dexuan's eyes widened in astonishment.

The woman took a heavy purse from her luggage and put it on the table, "Tomorrow, there will be a carriage by the woods outside the city. There is no driver. You can drive away by yourself."

After saying that, he didn't stay any longer, and left in a hurry under the surprised and confused eyes of the Wu couple.

"Sir, this..."

Mrs. Wu obviously also noticed something strange, and hurriedly took out the jade pendant stuffed by the woman from her swaddle, only to see that the jade pendant was crystal clear and bright in color, at first glance it was the top grade of jade, with a delicate peony flower engraved on it, The word "Linglong" is engraved on the back.

Looking at the child's rosy face, Wu Dexuan began to sweat on his forehead, and his lips trembled slightly, "Son, who are you?"

Their eyes met, and they couldn't speak anymore.

On the next day, a carriage was galloping along the official road outside the city. Wu Dexuan was sitting in front of the carriage holding a whip. Inside the carriage, Mrs. Wu was holding a half-year-old child in his arms, with a sad face...
