"Do you have a car? Can you take my son to the hospital?" Ding Yong was extremely anxious.
Da Zhuang also came over, "Yes, yes, I'll go get it now!" It didn't need asking; it was clear that their son had a sudden illness and time was of the essence. Everyone rushed to help.
On the way, Ding Yong explained intermittently, "My son, Xiao Hu, I don't know what happened, he kept vomiting, and now he's fainted! His mother gave him medicine and an injection, but nothing worked!" He hesitated, then said, "I noticed his symptoms are similar to those of people who returned from working at the 'Tong Zhou Factory' in the village. They all started with inexplicable vomiting, and some even vomited blood while vomiting... Although they all recovered in the end, their physical strength was clearly much weaker. They couldn't do heavy labor, and tasks like working in the fields were harder for them than for the women at home." He then remembered something else and added, "Weren't you looking for Mei Mei? Her mother's later husband, Liu Da Sheng, that's him. Now all the farm work relies on his mother alone."
Situ frowned and asked, "If it's just one person, it's one thing, but if so many people have problems, then that factory might be the root cause!"
"How could that be?" Xiao Yi comforted him, "Your grandfather is understanding and upright. He can't stand such bad practices. If he knew you dared to face evil head-on, he would definitely praise you."
"Heh... Thank you very much!"
The next day, it was already bright. Zhang Miaomiao was preparing breakfast. Seeing Xi En and the others return, she quickly put down what she was holding and asked, "How is Xiao Hu?"
Wai Shao said, "The doctor said he's fine."
"That's good, that's good."
Xia Weiliang also happened to come out of the house. Upon seeing them, she first handed each of them a cup of hot milk, "To warm your stomachs." Mikoy, who had been listless, perked up immediately upon seeing her, "Weiliang, you're so considerate. If you're by my side in the future, I will be very happy."
Xia Weiliang forced a smile, directly peeled an egg, and shoved it into his mouth, "Eat and don't talk!" Mikoy continued to look at her with as much affection as possible. Xia Weiliang pretended not to see, and asked Xi En, "En Ge, did the doctor say what illness Xiao Hu has?"
Recalling the doctor's words, Xi En glanced at Qiao Ge, who was staring at the machine, and said slowly, "He ate something bad, and because he's young and his resistance isn't as strong as an adult's, his symptoms were so severe."
"So that's how it is."
At this moment, Shen Chunhua came in with a basket of eggs. "Thank you all so much for last night. If it weren't for you, our Xiao Hu... Thank you!" As she spoke, her eyes turned red. Xia Weiliang couldn't stand to see anyone about to cry, so she quickly came over to take the eggs she brought, "Sister Hua, you didn't need to bring anything when you came!" She then playfully called out, "A Ning! Come and take these!"
"Coming!" After tasting Zhang Miaomiao's cooking, A Ning resolutely revealed her foodie nature. There was no need to pretend anymore; what was the point of fitness, self-discipline, and being a pretty girl in the face of delicious food! The eggs from Liu Family Village were not like those from outside; these were from authentic free-range chickens, with the highest nutritional value, and tasted superb fried!
Xia Weiliang invited Shen Chunhua to sit down. Shen Chunhua couldn't help but angrily curse, "It must have been those two scoundrels from yesterday! The child's father told me not to say anything, but I insist on saying it! My son suffered all night, why shouldn't I speak up?" She turned to Xia Weiliang and said, "Last night, I saw a suspicious shadow outside our yard, and then the village dogs started barking. Not long after, my son started having problems! If it wasn't them, who else could it be?"
