My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s - Chapter 383

Chapter 383: Chapter 376: Sending Love

Therefore, they could do this, and they unanimously agreed to it. So, the decision was made. In the end, they decided to bring everything to Tang Yuxin’s place, as it was more convenient. Besides, they couldn’t possibly come out in the middle of the night if they were at school. Tang Yuxin’s place was spacious and allowed them to prepare whatever they needed.

As for food, it was too bulky for them to carry. However, they did bring items that could warm the body. Initially, they planned to boil hot water, but eventually, they decided that ginger soup was a better option despite its unappealing taste. Hence, they finally settled on producing ginger-infused cola.

Tang Yuxin added some traditional Chinese herbs to the cola, turning it instantly into a nutritious soup.

Once the ginger-infused cola was ready, they each took a sip. The moment the beverage went down their throats, they immediately felt a wave of warmth radiating from their stomachs. It left them feeling cozy.

When Tang Yuxin opened the pot, the steam inside blurred her vision instantly. It had been snowing heavily for a month and five days so far.

In other words, this snowfall had been going on for about a month and five days. Each day the snowfall was as regular as clockwork, and the landscape remained the same. Furthermore, it was the same pool of people devoting themselves meticulously to their work. Every day, when they ventured outside, they saw the neatly cleared roadway and the constant flow of vehicles and pedestrians. But had they ever wondered who was responsible for ensuring that the roads were clean?

The cleaning workers and those who tirelessly swept the roads for them were the ones keeping the streets clean.

While they slept comfortably under warm blankets those workers were out there in the cold night wind, braving the snow to clear the roads, before finally heading home in the early morning.

She remembered it clearly, because at that time, she was in Beijing. Although she was just a regular university student, she was, after all, a college student. One month and six days after the snow started to fall, there was an accident one night. The city’s security department was clearing snow from a street, but because the snowfall was too heavy, an advertisement board collapsed. It crashed down onto a group of people underneath, resulting in over a dozen deaths and numerous injuries, some of which included broken limbs. And, the youngest among them was just in their twenties.

The accident caused a nationwide shock. It stirred empathy in everyone for those young men and their premature demise.

Tang Yuxin had a particular fondness and respect for them, and she felt sorry for their loss.

Over a dozen people, young lives snuffed out in an instant.

Being a doctor, she knew how hard it was to save a life. Therefore, she did not want any life to slip away under her watch, even if it were unavoidable. She wasn’t sure if she could have saved them, but she wanted to at least alleviate some of their pain.

So, she discussed this matter with Song Qingtong and others. They all agreed and enthusiastically came forward to help.

They didn’t sleep that night. They were busy arranging things until two in the morning when they finally packed their bags, got dressed, and prepared to leave, pushing the large water stove.

As soon as the door was opened, the wind outside hit them hard.

“It’s so cold,” Lin Yile sighed involuntarily, tucking her face into her clothes, “I feel terrible.” She pulled a face, “While we’re sleeping, they have to shovel snow in this cold weather.”

“Me too,” Ting Yuan spoke, full of guilt, “I never really thought about them as human beings who feel cold. I took them for granted. While enjoying the safety they provide, have we ever thought about what we could do for them?”

“But aren’t we doing something for them now?” Song Qingtong responded, pedaling the tricycle they had borrowed. It was so heavy that all the four girls had to exert all their strength. But when they thought about what they were going to do, they felt all their efforts were worth it, and they didn’t feel so cold anymore.

How could they possibly feel cold when their hearts were filled with warmth?

Meanwhile, on the main streets, Gu Ning was leading a team to shovel snow.

The snow kept falling from day to day, and in order to avoid obstructing the morning traffic, they had to clear the roads before sunrise.

Nobody complained of fatigue or cold. Instead, they were all busy with the constant sound of snow crunching underfoot.

Under the dim street lights, all that could be heard were their breaths and the sound of their shoes crunching the snow, some of which were already soaked.

Then a tricycle pulled up and stopped.

A few men, covered in snow, rushed over thinking the tricycle couldn’t pass due to the snow.

“We’ll help you push,” they said while setting down their shovels, ready to help the tricycle clear the path.

But they were taken aback when they saw the girls pushing the tricycle. What were these young girls doing out here in the middle of the night?

“Comrade, we’re here to show you some care.”

Ting Yuan pulled down her scarf a bit.

Then she pointed at the large pot on the tricycle and said, “We have brought ginger-infused cola for you guys. It’s still hot, so it will warm you up. Drinking a cup doesn’t take much time, and once you have it, you won’t feel cold and can continue shoveling snow tomorrow.”

Seeing the four small girls pushing a tricycle heavier than them, each covered in snow and trudging through the icy weather, the men couldn’t help but feel a warmth welling up in their eyes.

“Really, it won’t take much time,” Tang Yuxin assured, holding out a disposable cup. Then she dispensed a cup for the man in front of her. Given the handy faucet-like dispenser, simply turning it on and placing a cup underneath was all it took.

Tang Yuxin placed the cup in front of the man. His hands were red and swollen from the cold. They were human, just ordinary people with flesh and bones. Of course, they were capable of feeling cold and suffering. However, this was their job and their responsibility.

“Thank you…”

The man took the cup in his shaking hands. As soon as he held it, he felt the warmth spreading to his fingers. He had forgotten when he last had a drink this hot.

He raised the cup to his lips. His cracked lips were almost splitting due to the cold wind.
