The girl quickly wiped away the tears on her face. By now, Luo Qiao had also jumped down from the dam and roughly checked the injured woman—no bleeding point was found, but it seemed her aunt’s arm might have been fractured.
Luo Qiao said, “Don’t move her. I’m going to the commune health center right now to call for a doctor. It’s best to find something to carry her, just in case there are injuries we haven’t spotted, to avoid causing any secondary harm.”
At this moment, the girl could only cry, and upon hearing Luo Qiao’s words, she simply nodded through her tears.
After struggling to climb up the dam, she bolted toward the commune health center. Hearing that someone had fallen off the bridge, the doctor didn’t even bother to finish their meal. Two medical staff grabbed a wooden door panel and prepared to follow Luo Qiao to retrieve the injured person.
It was only after Luo Qiao asked that she found out the commune health center didn’t have a stretcher and always used this wooden door panel to carry people. Luo Qiao was exasperated, but thinking it was just the early 1980s, she didn’t dwell on it and led them toward the bridge.
After a medical examination, it was confirmed that besides the fracture in the forearm, all other areas were just superficial wounds. As for why she had passed out, she likely hit the back of her head when she fell.
Once they had carried the person up from the riverbed, Luo Qiao intended to leave, but the girl kept holding onto her, saying, “Sister, um, I really want to thank you for today. I’m a bit scared right now. Can you stay with me until we get to the health center?”
Zhang Xiao was truly terrified and completely clueless. For some reason, she felt an exceptional dependence on Luo Qiao and, despite being older than her, just wanted Luo Qiao to stay by her side.
Seeing that the girl was not lightly scared, Luo Qiao said, “Which village are you from? You should first send someone to inform your family. Otherwise, you won’t be able to handle it on your own, and you’re injured as well. You need to get it bandaged.”
Zhang Xiao was still in shock at this point, but holding on to Luo Qiao’s hand, she only said after hearing Luo Qiao’s words, “Right, right, you’re correct. I need to notify my dad first.”
Luo Qiao heard her address him not as ‘dad’ but as ‘father’, and guessed these two must be from the city. She then said, “If there’s a phone to contact him, that’ll be best. If we have to pass the message, we don’t know if we’ll find someone going that way.”
Zhang Xiao said, “Could you please help me go to the post office and call my dad? Tell him our situation, please.”
While speaking, she even put her hands together as if in prayer. Zhang Xiao’s mind was filled with images of her mother fainting, and she just couldn’t bear to leave.
Luo Qiao said, “Give me the telephone number, and I’ll go for you.”
Zhang Xiao said, “My name is Zhang Xiao. The phone number is XXXX. My dad, Zhang Jianjun, works for the army. Thank you so much for your help.”
After Luo Qiao delivered the people to the health center, she turned around and ran to the post office, “Comrade, I need to make a phone call.”
At that time, phone calls still required an operator for connection, and once someone on the other end picked up, a deep voice came through, “I’m Zhang Jianjun. Who is this?”
Luo Qiao quickly said, “Hello, your daughter Zhang Xiao asked me to call you. They’re currently at Chaoyang Commune Health Center. Please come quickly.”
Zhang Jianjun asked, “What happened? Why are they at the health center?”
Luo Qiao said, “They rode their bicycle off the bridge.”
Zhang Jianjun became anxious, asking, “How are they? Are the injuries serious?”
Thinking about how expensive phone calls were at that time, Luo Qiao said, “Auntie’s arm is fractured. Please hurry over, they’re waiting for you.”
