The vicious female supporting role is ruthless and arrogant

Chapter 245 Dirty Thoughts

Although the water tank is not very high, it is about 50 to 60 centimeters deep.

The little girl fell headfirst and sank directly. She struggled to raise her head, crying intermittently.

Ran Cui, who was distracted, thought the child was making a fuss and didn't pay any attention to it. She watched He Yi and his wife interacting and said perfunctorily:

"Be good, Yanyan. Mom will be here soon..."

Although he said that, his feet did not move.

When she had eaten enough lemons standing at the door, she returned to the kitchen dejectedly and found that the child was gone.

She shouted anxiously in the kitchen.

He Yi and Xu's mother heard her panicked voice and hurried to the kitchen.

"Sister Cui, what's wrong?"

"The child is missing."

Mother Xu asked anxiously, "Why is it gone? Didn't you always carry it with you?"

Ran Cui stammered:

"He was sitting on the horse just fine. I went out for a while, and when I came back, the child was gone."

He Yi immediately suspected that the Japanese knew their whereabouts and sneaked into Xu Risheng's home and abducted the child.

He looked everywhere in the kitchen, trying to find any clues that the child had been kidnapped.

Ran Cui and Xu's mother were also searching around the kitchen.

He Yi looked around but found no signs of anyone sneaking into the house.

He turned around and looked around the kitchen again, his eyes falling on the wooden horse in the corner of the kitchen.

He looked at the water tank next to him again, thought about it, and walked straight towards the water tank.

A wooden board was placed on top of the water tank, covering two-thirds of the tank mouth, and a ladle was placed on the board.

He leaned his head to look into the water tank, but could not see anything in the darkness.

I didn't think much about it at first, I just lifted the baffle of the water tank a little.

In a blink of an eye, I saw the little girl's small body, face down, floating just below the baffle of the water tank, and was covered by the baffle.

He quickly lifted the baffle, pulled the child out of the water, and gave him first aid.

When Xu's mother saw that the child's face had turned pale, his lips had turned purple, and he had stopped breathing, she suddenly felt dizzy and was staggering as she held onto the door frame.

Ran Cui collapsed and screamed.

He Yi patted the child's face to water him, and seeing that there was none, he rushed out of the kitchen with the child in his arms.

"Wife, wife, Yanyan is drowning..."

Zuo Zixuan had already stood up when she heard the call from the kitchen. After hearing He Yi's words, she reached out and groped her way carefully towards the direction of He Yi's voice.

Seeing that Zuo Zixuan was falling, He Yi was worried that she would fall, so he placed the child directly on the stone table in the inner courtyard.

Then he ran over and carried Zuo Zixuan to the stone table, pulling her hand and placing it on the child.

Zuo Zixuan quickly touched the child and then provided first aid.

Xu's mother and Ran Cui stumbled out of the kitchen and stood by crying.

After more than ten minutes of rescue, the child showed no sign of movement, and Xu's mother simply closed her eyes and passed out.

Ran Cui also sat down on the ground and cried loudly.

He Yi and his wife had no time to care about the woman on the ground. They were taking turns performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation on the child.

After about forty minutes, the couple were exhausted and thought that the patient could not be saved.

Who knew that the little girl would gurgle out a few mouthfuls of clear water, cough a few times, and then burst into tears with a loud bang.

He Yi quickly picked up the child and coaxed him gently in his arms, then took Zuo Zixuan to Xu's mother's side.

"Wife, my wife has fainted..."

Zuo Zixuan woke the man up and groped his way to help him up.

When Xu's mother woke up and saw the child crying loudly, she felt relieved at once. She lay limply in Zuo Zixuan's arms as if her whole body was stretched thin.

She turned to look at Ran Cui, who was still sitting on the ground crying, and started cursing.

The curse was as harsh as it could be, and all the ancestors of the family were cursed.

Xu's mother is also a country girl, but she still has the most basic common sense and logic.

It was obvious that when the child fell into the water, Ran Cui did not notice it immediately.

If Ran Cui had only been out of the kitchen for a while, even if the child fell into the water tank, he would not have drowned. At most, he would have choked on the water.

This means that she was out for a long time and didn’t even know that her child drowned.

So for such a long time, she didn't go to the front yard or the back yard. What was she doing?

At that time, Xu's mother was unable to analyze more deeply what Ran Cui had done, but she felt that Ran Cui must have done something bad.

She cursed without restraint, and Ran Cui just sat on the ground and cried.

He Yi did not persuade Xu's mother at first. Even Xu's mother could analyze the situation. How could he, a man from the military, not see the problem?

He also found it strange. Even if Ran Cui had to do something and couldn't take care of the child, she could just hand the child over to the couple to help take care of it.

Why did you leave your child alone in the kitchen and go out for so long?

But this is someone else's family affair after all, and he can't interfere.

Just then Xu Qingfeng came back and the farce that had just happened to be a disaster calmed down.

Dinner was prepared by He Yi and others under the guidance of Zuo Zixuan.

Xu Qingfeng, who had never touched water, picked and washed the vegetables, He Yi cut the vegetables, and Song Yingyan, who had a little cooking experience, took charge of the cooking.

Not to mention, the dishes turned out to be quite presentable.

Before Xu Risheng entered the courtyard, he could smell the aroma of food coming from the yard.

He could guess with his toes that this meal was definitely not cooked by his mother and Ran Cui.

Because they don't have that level.

After he entered the room, he said to He Yi with great joy:

"He Yi, those Japanese soldiers were fooled by Qingfeng and Ying Yan, and they left in a hurry on the bus in the afternoon.

You are safe here."

He Yi and his companions breathed a sigh of relief.

Zuo Zixuan's foot has almost healed. Once Mr. Yang analyzes the soil and makes a list of fertilizers, they can leave.

Everyone was happily eating around the table, not a word was mentioned about the child who fell into the water and almost drowned.

Xu's mother didn't mention it either. There were guests at home. She still wanted to maintain the most basic decency of the family and didn't want the guests to laugh at her.

She also acted as normal and chatted and laughed with everyone.

Only Ran Cui lowered her head with a guilty look on her face, not daring to look at Xu Risheng.

Xu Risheng didn't notice anything wrong with her because she was usually like this, always being timid and submissive.

He Yi and others thought that the matter was over.

In the evening, Zuo Zixuan discussed with He Yi, "He Yi, I'm afraid we will have to stay here for a few more days. It's not convenient to stay at Brother Xu's house all the time.

How about renting a small courtyard tomorrow and paying the rent by the day? "

He Yi also felt that it was not appropriate to live here all the time, so he planned to talk to Xu Risheng tomorrow and decide to move out.

Even if you can't rent a yard for the time being, you can stay in a guesthouse temporarily.

At one or two o'clock in the middle of the night, the heart-wrenching cry of a child and the cursing voice of Xu's mother were suddenly heard from the inner courtyard.

Mother Xu held the child in her arms and coaxed him gently, "My dear, your soul must have fallen into the water tank. What should we do?"

"Mom, what kind of soul fell into the water tank? Did anything happen to Yanyan during the day?"

Xu Risheng asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Mother Xu glared fiercely at Ran Cui, who was sitting on the bed with her head down and crying.

Before I could complain, there was a knock on the door.

"Brother Xu, is Yanyan feeling unwell?"

He Yi asked while standing outside the door.

Xu Risheng opened the door and said, "I'm so sorry to disturb your rest.

The child suddenly had a fever and was a little fussy. "

"What do you mean by disturbing or not? The child is not feeling well, let Qingfeng take a look at him. What if it gets worse?"

Xu Risheng smiled and nodded, "Okay, I won't be polite, then I'll ask Qingfeng to help me take a look."

Xu Risheng stepped aside to let He Yi and others enter the house.

Xu Qingfeng entered the room carrying a small medicine box, took the child from Xu's mother's arms, touched the child's forehead, and took out a thermometer to clamp it on the child.

He pulled the child's hands apart and took a look, then shone the flashlight into the child's throat.

Finally, he took out his stethoscope and reached into the child's clothes to listen.

“The child may have been frightened after falling into the water during the day, causing his body’s defense function to decline and resulting in a fever.

But I heard a murmur in her lungs, which sounded a bit like pneumonia.”

Xu Qingfeng held the child in his arms and said.

"Pneumonia?" Xu Risheng looked nervous. He had heard that some children died from pneumonia due to improper or untimely treatment.

Xu Qingfeng nodded, reached out to take out the thermometer from the child's armpit, looked at it, and raised his eyebrows.

"It is now confirmed that he has pneumonia due to the fever.

The body temperature is over 40 degrees. It would be strange if he didn't get pneumonia.

Brother Xu, you guys are really something. You should have called me immediately as soon as the child had a fever.

The child has had a fever for at least several hours. A pill of antipyretic medicine could have cured the problem, but now I'm afraid it will be too much for the child to bear if I have to treat him now."

When Xu's mother heard what Xu Qingfeng said, she could no longer bear it and rushed forward and slapped Ran Cui hard.

"The child was in your arms the whole time, and you didn't even know he had a fever? Did you do that on purpose?

If you don't want to live this life, just get out of here.

If you, an illiterate peasant woman, want to climb a high branch, then go and see which high branch you can climb..."

Xu Risheng was confused by what he heard and had no idea what was going on with his mother's sudden behavior.

But he knew that hitting people was definitely wrong, so he quickly pulled his mother away.

"Mom, if you have anything to say, just talk it over nicely. Don't hit me."

Xu's mother pointed at Ran Cui with tears in her eyes and said angrily: "She deserves to be beaten."

"Okay, okay, the child's illness is the most important thing now, let's put everything else aside."

Xu Risheng pulled Xu's mother to sit on a chair beside him.

He turned around and asked Ran Cui, "Cui'er, the child has been having a fever, don't you know?"

Ran Cui lowered her head and said nothing, just crying.

Of course she knew that the child had a fever, but she didn't dare to say it.

She was afraid that Xu Risheng would divorce her if he knew that the child fell into the water and almost drowned during the day.

She always knew that Xu Risheng was very smart. If he knew that the child fell into the water, Xu Risheng only needed to do a brief analysis and her dirty thoughts would have nowhere to hide.

Xu Risheng saw her crying with her head down and unable to say a word for a long time, so he could only sigh and shake his head.

Xu Qingfeng ran to Zuo Zixuan and got some medicine, preparing to give the child an IV.

These ordinary antipyretic pills can no longer control such a high temperature.

If the child is not given an IV to reduce his temperature, he might go crazy with the fever.

He was busy giving the child an injection and an IV, and didn't notice that Xu Risheng was looking at him in surprise.
