Chapter 862: Chapter 407: No Status as a Live-in Son-in-Law, Child Comatose from Cold Medicine

Under normal circumstances, the grandmother should be a guest. But this grandmother was so domineering that it was quite surprising to Li Jingsheng.

Fortunately, the child’s grandmother on the other side didn’t come, or else there would have been a straight-up clash.

"Mom, you should say less! Grandpa didn’t intentionally hurt the child, he already feels plenty guilty."

The child’s mother was relatively sensible.

Luckily, she was sensible, or else the family feud would surely deepen.

The child’s father remained expressionless and didn’t speak.

Surely, hearing his mother-in-law criticize his father in this way made him unhappy inside.

"Why isn’t the child being treated at the hospital?"

Han Siying interjected from the side.

Her intention was to change the subject to avoid this family getting into a heated argument inside the clinic.

If they actually started fighting, it would disrupt the regular operations of the clinic.

"The emergency doctor over there tried twice and couldn’t fix it. They said the child’s bones were too fragile to use any force, fearing damage. He told us to come to you for treatment. He also informed us that since it’s the weekend, you should be working at Sunshine Clinic. So, we rushed here early this morning."

She looked at the child’s X-ray.

It was just an elbow dislocation.

Young children’s bones are brittle and tender, making joint dislocations quite likely.

Especially when some adults like to whirl the child around by their hand, or even make the child’s body lift off the ground, these are very dangerous actions. The child’s grandfather probably held the child’s hand and played too roughly, which led to such serious consequences.

The film was taken at Qiaobang Hospital.

The emergency department doctor there was quite interesting. Knowing Li Jingsheng’s expertise in manual repositioning was nothing unusual, but what was surprising was that this emergency doctor even knew Li Jingsheng’s work schedule at the clinic and the Second Hospital.

"The child’s bones are very delicate and prone to joint dislocation. I often encounter such patients. The younger the child, the harder it is to do manual repositioning. Regular doctors really might not dare to try. The emergency doctor you found was willing to attempt it twice, making him a very responsible and good doctor."

Li Jingsheng returned the favor by praising the emergency doctor in front of the family.

He also didn’t forget to help exonerate the child’s grandfather from blame.

"No wonder! Qiaobang Hospital is the best hospital in Jiangli City, no wonder they couldn’t even fix it."

The grandmother spoke up again.

This time, however, she didn’t blame her in-laws again.

"Doctor, can you treat it here?"

Her eyes darted around, clearly not trusting the medical skills here.

According to her thinking, if Qiaobang Hospital couldn’t fix it, can a small clinic’s doctor fix it?

"We need to take a look at the situation to be sure. Please remove the child’s outerwear, I’ll examine him first."

Li Jingsheng’s last sentence was directed at the child’s mother.

Once the child’s outer clothing was removed, Li Jingsheng examined the child’s bones.

After feeling around, he had a good grasp of the situation.

It wasn’t a difficult fracture to treat.

What is simple for the expert can be difficult for the novice.

In Li Jingsheng’s eyes, it was just a small issue, but for other doctors, repositioning the elbow joint of such a young child posed significant difficulty.

When faced with a child whose joints are particularly tightly constructed, doctors find it even harder.

Having agreed on a price with the family, Li Jingsheng immediately set about repositioning the child’s joint.

He gently pinched and squeezed the child’s elbow joint twice, and the child’s face showed a hint of crying. But before he could cry, Li Jingsheng had already finished the treatment.

"All done."

"It’s done, just like that?"

The family members were incredulous.

"Do you have the child’s toys here?"

Li Jingsheng asked the family members.

"This is the child’s favorite rattle." The grandfather quickly pulled out a colorful toy from his pocket.

He was in such a hurry that he accidentally took out two candies as well.

Li Jingsheng picked up the two candies and handed them to the child.

"Little friend, if you get them, they’ll be yours."

The child saw the candies, and his attention was captivated. But he was a bit shy and didn’t dare to take them.

Eventually, unable to resist, he stretched out his right hand to grab one.

He successfully managed to grab one.

Li Jingsheng purposefully extended the other candy toward the child’s left hand.

The child, having successfully grabbed one candy, felt quite happy and much braver.

He stretched out his left hand to grab that candy.

The family members saw him already being able to raise his left hand, all breaking into smiles.

The child grabbed the second candy with his left hand.

"Baby, you’re amazing!"

The family members erupted in cheers, their smiles spreading widely across their faces.

"That’s wonderful, thank you, doctor! It seems Qiaobang Hospital’s doctor was reliable, and the recommended doctor is indeed impressive."

The child was healed, naturally bringing joy to everyone.

The happiest should be the child’s grandfather. Having caused trouble and been blamed by the grandmother, he must have felt miserable.

Now, it’s better.

Li Jingsheng gave some instructions and watched as the family left with the child.

More accurately, they should be two families.

The child’s father seemed to have married into the family.

It was evident that the child’s father and grandfather had no standing. Furthermore, the grandfather dressed quite humbly, though his demeanor was that of a city person.

If the house they lived in was bought by the woman’s side, it wouldn’t be surprising.

Not long after, the patient suspected of rat poison ingestion had already finished breakfast under the care of his children.

Li Jingsheng prescribed medication and had the nurse administer it to the patient.

If the case was severe, leading to multi-organ failure or serious liver and kidney damage, further treatment would definitely be required. But now the patient’s condition seemed grave, the actual bodily harm was relatively light.
