Huo Qiming said: "Secretary Chu, according to your instructions, the ambulance and the doctor set off long ago, but I don't know exactly where they arrived."

Chu Tianshu said: "Ask the people in the car to contact me."

After a few minutes, the stone bridge could be vaguely seen.

Chu Tianshu's cell phone rang, and the caller was Zhu Xiaoyun, the deputy director of the county hospital: "Secretary Chu, this is Zhu Xiaoyun from the county hospital. The ambulance has arrived at Daliushu Township and is almost at Shibanqiao."

"Dr. Zhu, thank you." Chu Tianshu asked: "Are you in the ambulance?"

"Here! We rushed over after receiving the notice from Director Huo." Zhu Xiaoyun was the director of the obstetrics and gynecology department of the county hospital at first. She is very experienced in dealing with difficult and complicated diseases such as dystocia. Her appointment as deputy director is not entirely dependent on her.

Outside of business, when Huo Qiming received a call from Chu Tianshu, he thought of her first and sent her out immediately.

Zhu Xiaoyun asked: "How is the patient's condition?"

Chu Tianshu glanced at the woman on the stretcher and said, "Heavy bleeding..."

"Not good." Zhu Xiaoyun shouted over there before Chu Tianshu finished speaking: "Secretary Chu, there is a traffic jam on the bridge."

During the call, the stretcher had arrived at the bridge.

Chu Tianshu held up his cell phone and looked around, secretly shouting "fuck you".

The two dump trucks were tightly packed together, squeezing the entire stone bridge to the brim. Not to mention the ambulance coming, the stretcher could not pass through. Even people could only crawl over cautiously from the edge of the dump trucks.

.

Shiban Bridge is an ancient bridge with a very narrow bridge deck and no sidewalks. Originally, it could barely pass two cars. Usually, large dump trucks try not to miss the bridge.

I don’t know what happened today, but two dump trucks were driving toward each other. When they reached the middle of the bridge, one of them tilted on the stone slab, and the two trucks were stuck together, unable to move.

"Hey, Secretary Chu, what should I do?" Zhu Xiaoyun called anxiously on the phone.

Standing at the bridgehead, Xinquan and others could already see the flashing overhead lights of the ambulance in the distance.

However, I watched helplessly as the distance was only a few dozen meters, but it was blocked by the Tongtian River thousands of miles away.

At this time, the wind was still blowing hard outside and the rain had basically stopped.

Xinquan hugged Guiqin who was still struggling in pain, looked up to the sky and sighed: "God, are you going to destroy my family? Are you going to separate my wife and children? God, you are unfair!"

The second uncle couldn't help but burst into tears.

Several young men carrying the stretcher also wiped away tears.

Everyone was helpless.

Looking at the young farmers in front of him and listening to their sad cries, Chu Tianshu's face burned and tears flowed out silently.

He silently blamed himself in his heart: Chu Tianshu, aren't you ambitious and heroic? You can't even save a young pregnant woman, so what shame do you have to talk about changing the fate of more than 800,000 people in Nanling County!

Time is life, there is no need to hesitate.

Chu Tianshu observed the river surface and asked loudly: "How is your water quality? Let's carry the stretcher across the river."

The second uncle said worriedly: "This can't be done. The river doesn't know how deep it is. If you don't step on it properly, the person carrying it will be washed away by the water. Otherwise, if I look for it, there is no boat?"

"Uncle, it's too late." Chu Tianshu took a look, it was spring, the river was not wide, and there were no boats nearby.

Xinquan grabbed the bed board and said in a hoarse voice: "Uncle, I didn't say anything, I will die with Gui Qin."

Guiqin cried on the bed board and said, "Xin Quan, please don't, don't hurt everyone."

One of the young men cried and said: "Brother Xinquan, it's not that I'm afraid of death. I really don't know how to swim. They all know it."

Chu Tianshu threw off his coat and leather shoes, grabbed the bed board, replaced the young man who couldn't swim, and said loudly: "Come on, let's go to the river!"

Xinquan and the other two young men also threw off their shoes and shouted in unison: "Go to the river!"

Four people carried the stretcher and walked into the Tongtian River step by step.

On a late spring night, the river water was bone-chillingly cold.

The second uncle and the young man who couldn't swim held their clothes and shoes, holding flashlights in their hands and shining them on the river.

In the vehicles parked on the roadside, drivers who were smoking and cursing saw the stretcher being carried in the river. They turned on all the headlights on the car, illuminating the surrounding area of ​​the stone bridge.

Chu Tianshu and Xinquan walked in front, holding the bed board tightly with their hands and walking forward step by step.

The river water has reached the knees...the river water has reached the thighs...the river water is close to the chest...

The four people shouted loudly to encourage each other, and despite the turbulent river water, the bed planks on their shoulders were still held firmly on their shoulders.

Both sides of the Tongtian River were crowded with people, and people were shouting constantly.

"careful!"

"withstand!"

"Well done!"

Fortunately, it is still the dry season and the river water is only chest deep.

Chu Tianshu, Xinquan and others walked carefully and steadily, and after ten minutes, they finally stepped onto the river bed on the other side.

The crowds on both sides of the Taiwan Strait burst into enthusiastic cheers and applause.

The villagers in Hedong Village learned the news. Wang Guitian, Er Lengzi and others had been waiting by the river for a long time. When they saw clearly that the person walking at the front carrying a stretcher looked a bit like Chu Tianshu, they couldn't help but wiped their eyes and shouted loudly

Asked: "Secretary Chu, is it really you?"

Chu Tianshu climbed up the river embankment with difficulty and shouted: "Old Wang, hurry up, take the stretcher and take it to the ambulance."

"Secretary Chu, it's really Secretary Chu." Er Lunzi and others shouted and rushed towards the river embankment.

They took the stretchers from Chu Tianshu and Xinquan's shoulders, took long strides, and ran towards the ambulance.

Zhu Xiaoyun came over with a nurse. She stopped the stretcher, opened the plastic sheet covering it, turned to the nurse and said: "The child's head has come out. Come on, get in the car, get oxygen, and prepare for blood transfusion."

The stretcher was loaded into the ambulance and the door was closed immediately.

Chu Tianshu, Xinquan and others were waiting anxiously outside the car. Water flowed down their clothes and there was a large puddle under their feet.

Wang Guitian said: "Secretary Chu, go home and change your clothes. Don't catch a cold."

"No need." Chu Tianshu shook his head and said, "Old Wang, find me a mobile phone."

The idiot handed him his cell phone.

Chu Tianshu dialed Du Yufei's phone: "Yufei, the Shiban Bridge is blocked by two dump trucks. Hurry up and send a tow truck over to clear the road. Ah sneeze..."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away." Du Yufei agreed, and then asked: "Old Chu, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, it's okay." Chu Tianshu said it was okay, but he couldn't help but sneezed twice loudly.

Wang Wuping and his wife brought ginger syrup and said excitedly: "Secretary Chu, have a bowl to warm yourself up."

Chu Tianshu took it and took a few sips, and suddenly a warmth surged through his body.

He stared at the ambulance, but he was thinking in his heart: In the past, he only knew about the poverty in Nanling County, and thought that it was enough to lead everyone to develop the rural economy and solve the problem of food and clothing. Now it seems that the problem of lack of medical treatment and medicine in rural areas cannot be tolerated.

ignore.

If the traffic conditions were better and it was more convenient to work in the township health center, the doctor might still be able to stay. Patients like Guiqin could get timely treatment. Even if they have to be sent to the county hospital, they can be sent to the county hospital very conveniently. Why would it happen?

Such a crisis situation.

Building roads and bridges is a top priority!

The back of the ambulance finally opened.

Ten minutes seemed like half a century.

Zhu Xiaoyun got out of the car, took off her mask, and asked loudly: "Who are the patient's family members?"

Xinquan walked over tremblingly, raised his head, and looked at Zhu Xiaoyun eagerly.

Zhu Xiaoyun smiled pleasantly and said, "Mother and son are safe."

Xinquan's knees softened and he fell to his knees on the ground, tears streaming down his face.

Chu Tianshu stepped forward, held Zhu Xiaoyun's hand, and said, "Thank you, thank you, Doctor Zhu."

Zhu Xiaoyun said: "Secretary Chu, fortunately it was delivered in time. If it had been a little later, I wouldn't have been able to do anything."

At this time, Xinquan, who was kneeling on the ground, turned around, crawled forward on his knees in front of Chu Tianshu and Zhu Xiaoyun, and kowtowed several times.

Chu Tianshu hurriedly bent down, helped Xinquan up with both hands, and said: "Brother, you have to thank the big guys, not me. There are no doctors in the rural health center, and the stone bridge is impassable. This is what I am doing now."

Secretary, I'm sorry to everyone." As he spoke, he bowed deeply to the crowd around him three times, raised his head, and said with tears in his eyes: "Folks, as long as I, Chu Tianshu, stay in Nanling for one day, I will do it no matter what.

Build a new bridge that will benefit the people of the entire county!”

A burst of applause broke out from the crowd, and someone shouted loudly: "Secretary Chu, you are a good secretary for our Nanling people!"

Zhu Xiaoyun and Xinquan got into the ambulance and drove away...

After going through many twists and turns, Chu Tianshu returned to the residence of the Ziyang Township Government. After changing his clothes and cleaning up, it was already around 11 o'clock in the evening. Wang Yongchao, Ma Guoliang and others' Zhou Yu's performance of Huang Gai had just ended.

Wang Yongchao came in and reported that he had gained more than 5,000 yuan this time, especially Ma Guoliang who lost happily and happily. He talked about a lot of good things and only made a few small nonsense in the whole night.

Chu Tianshu asked Wang Yongchao to keep the accounts and quickly went back to the room to report today's work to Xue Jinlong.

I got up early the next morning, had breakfast, and went to Ziyang Township Primary School according to Ma Guoliang's arrangement.

Children wearing red scarves lined up at the school gate to greet them. They held the peach blossoms picked in the morning and shouted happily: "Welcome, welcome, warm welcome."

After coming out of elementary school, Chu Tianshu suddenly proposed: "Secretary Ma, let's go to the township health center to have a look."

Ma Guoliang couldn't stop the secretary from calling his name. Fortunately, there was a plan at the layout meeting the night before, and the external environment of each place should be able to withstand inspection.

A group of people arrived at the township health center.

The middle-aged woman last night was wearing a white coat and a white mask and was giving an intramuscular injection to an old man.
