Time passed quickly when there were no outsiders to disturb them and their moods were pleasant, so much so that three days vanished in the blink of an eye.
However, after three days.
The toxins had also finished their transformation of the Miao Cuihua couple.
That very night, because of the not-so-clean bed, they both started to itch and break out in hives.
They couldn't sleep well all night.
They even scratched themselves until they were almost bleeding.
After getting up and eating breakfast the next morning, one of them immediately had diarrhea and couldn't leave the toilet, while the other broke out in a rash all over their body, with lips swollen like sausages. Under these circumstances, although they didn't know they were poisoned, they both understood.
Something must be wrong with their bodies.
So naturally, they rushed to the hospital for a check-up.
After the doctor briefly asked about their condition and looked at the relevant test reports, they generally concluded that the couple should have had an allergic reaction. So, while prescribing them some anti-allergy medication, they asked if they had any history of allergies and if they wanted to undergo desensitization treatment.
Upon hearing this, the Miao Cuihua couple both stated that they had never been allergic before, so how could they suddenly be allergic?
Were they being tricked?
Therefore, they absolutely refused further in-depth examinations, allergen screening, and desensitization treatments.
They just took the anti-allergy medicine and went home.
Back home, they took some medicine and felt a little better. Combined with the to-and-fro hassle, they were exhausted, so they hurried to prepare lunch.
After eating, they undoubtedly developed new symptoms.
Miao Cuihua, who had been experiencing diarrhea, began to have facial swelling, while Fu Haiyang, whose lips were swollen, found his throat swelling.
He developed symptoms of difficulty breathing.
At this point, neither of them dared to stay any longer. Of course, they quickly went out, called their neighbors, and asked them to take them to the hospital. And this time, they didn't dare to come back with just some medicine. They directly stayed in the hospital and demanded that the doctors cure them.
Otherwise, they would be considered quacks prescribing fake medicine.
Meanwhile, the hospital doctors were also very confused. They couldn't understand why their allergic symptoms were so severe, and it seemed to be more than just one type of allergy. Given their age, they should have known long ago what they were allergic to. If they were eating the same food they always ate, how could they have such a strong allergic reaction?
This was unreasonable and unscientific.
But no matter what, as long as patients came, they had to find a way to treat them. So, despite being full of doubts, they still followed the normal procedure, registered them, and issued various examination and laboratory test orders, hoping to understand their condition.
That way, they could prescribe the right treatment.
Medical treatment is like this: if you don't understand the condition, prescribing more medicine might be useless, and could even cause more harm to the body, or negatively impact the condition. Only with the correct diagnosis can there be an effect.
However, as the number of examinations increased, Miao Cuihua and her husband inevitably started complaining, while the doctors became even more puzzled. Because according to the data from various examinations, these two patients had too many allergens. They were so numerous that they didn't seem like beings from this planet, but rather like aliens, hence their allergies to everything. They had so many allergens that the doctors were at a loss.
"What is going on with these two patients? Are they not telling the truth? When asked if they were allergic to penicillin or other drugs, they actually said they weren't allergic to anything, but the test results clearly show they are allergic to most medications.
Are they trying to scam us?"
"Oh, these days, you still believe what patients say? I'm telling you, basically don't believe what patients say. Let's go by the test results.
Don't just listen to the patients to save trouble.
If something goes wrong later, we'll be held responsible."
"But these two patients are allergic to so many things! If they were allergic to those things since birth, I can't believe how they lived to this age. So I think their allergies are problematic, not congenital, but acquired.
Otherwise, some things cannot be explained..."
"After listening to you chat for so long, what exactly are those two patients allergic to? Are they that difficult to handle?"
"They are allergic to most Western medicines, plastic products, needles, and most foods, including staple foods like rice and flour. And this is just what has been tested so far. There are still more to be tested.
We don't know how many more allergies they have.
Logically, children with this type of condition would mostly not be able to be born and would have died in the womb. But they are both so old, and both husband and wife have similar symptoms. This is really unreasonable, and we can't figure out how to treat them.
Forget it, I'll report it.
I really can't handle this!"
After a round of complaining and mumbling, the doctor who was originally in charge of Miao Cuihua and Fu Haiyang quickly reported the situation, stating that they couldn't handle it and requested an expert consultation.
However, experts would be useless in this situation.
As the examinations deepened, they only discovered that the Miao Cuihua couple had a frightening number of allergens, covering almost every aspect. Even though they had tried their best to provide a sterile environment for the couple and served them meticulously prepared food that they shouldn't be allergic to, Miao Cuihua and her husband couldn't hold on any longer. It wasn't their bodies that couldn't hold on, but their wallets that couldn't hold on.
This was even after the hospital had tried to minimize their costs, considering them as peculiar patients and not charging them much.
Then, the couple caused a scene at the hospital for a while, managed to get most of the money they had paid back, and were reluctantly sent home. Back home, they continued to cause trouble and make a fuss, demanding that their daughter pay for their medical treatment. In reality, they weren't continuing treatment.
They just took more anti-allergy medication when they felt like it.
Others took one pill, but they took ten, and only then did their physical allergic condition slightly improve.
But this was merely treating the symptoms, not the root cause.
They had too many allergens.
While taking anti-allergy medicine, they continued to have allergic reactions. What was the use? It would only make their bodies weaker, and the medicine less effective.
Yet, even at this point, they were still unwilling. Unwilling to let their eldest and second daughters drag them to find Ding Yun for medical expenses, and still wanting to play the victim and demand houses and other things.
Ding Yun was very impressed by this.
She was impressed that they could endure being so allergic, and luckily never encountered a fatal allergen. She was impressed that even at this point, they were still unwilling to give up and still wanted to come, perhaps even scheming to extort something after death.
Fortunately, most people were on Ding Yun's side at this time.
Some even thought that the Miao Cuihua couple had become this way because they had committed too many sins in their lives and were now facing heavenly retribution.
In this situation, Ding Yun naturally would not fulfill their wishes. In the end, she only asked them for the hospital payment receipts and was only willing to bear one-eleventh of the cost.
Then she had security escort them away.
Their family had eleven children, the youngest of whom were already adults. Ding Yun was only willing to bear one-eleventh of the cost, which was a very reasonable matter. Moreover, Ding Yun didn't think they could last much longer. When they died, she would at most have to bear the funeral expenses, which was inconsequential.
If anyone was to blame, it could only be that her heart was not cruel enough.
