heir body, seemingly sensing Ripples' scrutiny, the other party suddenly reacted, beginning to roll wildly, trying to break free from the confinement.A ripple flashed in her eyes, she suddenly turned...Two people entered the ward and saw Wang Xiufen and Zhang Qiang gathered around Chen Jia Shu. At this moment, Chen Jia Shu was eating rabbit meat bite by bite. Although his face was still pale, being able to eat meant that the situation wasn't so bad.
"Ripple, how is Captain Zhao"
Wang Xiufen wasn't very fond of Chen Jia Shu and was feeling awkward. Just then, Lian Yi and Sun Sheng walked in, so she decided to just ask directly. Everyone in the room, including the injured villagers from Hongqi Commune, turned their attention towards her.
When we arrived, Captain Zhao was still sleeping. We didn't dare to wake him up.
I asked the nurse, and she said that the captain's mood swings were too big, his blood pressure rose too high suddenly, so they gave him some sedatives to help him rest and recover in his sleep.
The ripples explain everything in just a few words.
"Don't worry about the captain, we left some food for him and told the nurse to warm it up for him when he wakes up."
Sun Sheng also spoke up, explaining a few words to the person in the ward.
Here Chen Jia Shu had already set down his chopsticks, watching Ripples slowly walk over. His expression was off.
Wang Xiufen stood up and directly blocked Chen Jia Shu's gaze, taking Lian Yi's hand and saying:
"It's getting late, we need to head back before dark. The snow is coming down harder now, it won't be safe to walk later."
Zhang Qiang also nodded in agreement. He didn't want to stay and speak with Chen Jiashu, whose expression was gloomy.
Four people greeted the surrounding people and then prepared to leave.
"Wu Lianyi, could I have a word with you alone"
Chen Kaishui spoke.
In the ward, all eyes turned to Wu Lianyi.
"Chen Tongxue, it's getting late now, and the snow outside is falling harder. It wouldn't be good to make them wait for me alone. If you have anything you want to say, wait until after you leave the hospital and return to the educated youth point. You can tell me anytime."
The ripples' refusal was very abrupt, she didn't even wait for him to respond before taking Wang Xiufen away from the ward. Zhang Qiang and Sun Sheng glanced at each other and said a perfunctory "you rest well" before also leaving the ward, leaving Chen Jia Shu with a gloomy and terrifying expression.
In the ward, the injured villagers looked at Chen Jia Shu with displeasure. Nobody paid him any attention and they all turned their heads to sleep. That full jar of meat didn't even offer them a taste, so naturally they wouldn't speak up for Chen Jia Shu.
In the eyes of these villagers, Chen Jia Shu is a typical show pony, all looks and no substance. This time it was because they saved him that so many villagers were injured. It could have been avoided, but because he panicked and couldn't run or resist, it led to this situation today.
The four people in the cart could now feel a noticeably drop in temperature. Their exhaled breath formed white smoke, and the wind grew stronger. Zhao Lao Tou quickly whipped the oxen a few times, urging them to go faster.
A group of people finally returned to Hongqi Commune after sunset, luckily avoiding being stuck on the road.
Back at the commune, Zheng Xin had already stoked up the kang. Seeing the two of them come in shivering from the cold, their noses red, she immediately poured them ginger tea to warm them up.
"The snow is falling heavier and heavier. If it keeps snowing through the night, the road out of the village will definitely be blocked by heavy snow tomorrow."
The ripples shivered, shaking off the snow from her body. She stomped her feet, took off her coat, kicked off her thin cotton shoes, climbed onto the kang, pulled the blanket over herself, and said, as she sipped the slightly spicy ginger tea.
Wang Xiufen also brushed the snow off her body, learning from the ripples' movements, climbed onto the kang, pulled up the quilt, and warmed herself with tea.
Zheng Xin inquired about their visit to the sick, and then placed a porcelain pot of rabbit meat and two buns on the kang table from the stove, letting the two eat something. After all, they had gone to the town hospital without stopping and hurried back, certainly without eating anything.
After the two had eaten and drunk their fill, and their bodies were warmed up, they then spoke about Chen Jia Shu's unusual situation.
"When we were leaving, Chan Ka-shu insisted on having Ripple stay behind to talk to him alone. I don't know what he had in mind."
Zheng Xin whispered.
"Hmph! What else can they say that sounds good It's just shifting the blame for breaking his leg onto me!"
The ripples said, not caring at all.
What does this have to do with you You didn't go with us, so why are you taking the blame
Cheng Xin was simply taken aback.
He felt that if I lent him food, he wouldn't risk joining the village hunt out of hunger, and thus wouldn't get hurt or break his leg. Therefore, in the end, all the responsibility was on me.
The sarcasm and disdain in the tone of ripples are palpable to anyone.
And what he said was exactly Chen Jia Shu's true thoughts at the moment. He had come to hate Wu Lian Yi, feeling that if the other party continued to fawn over him as before, he wouldn't have gotten into this mess in the first place.
Chen Jia-shu's exposed emotions were accurately captured by Lian Yi, which is why she decisively refused to be alone with him. She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to control herself and would directly kill him, thus artificially increasing the difficulty of her own task.
Wang Xiufen and Zheng Xin were also surprised by Lian Yi's words. After looking at each other, Zheng Xin spoke:
"Is he crazy Why should you support him He's a grown man with hands and feet, he can earn his own work points, right Doesn't he feel ashamed!"
It's my fault for being soft-hearted before. Seeing him hungry, I occasionally helped him out. Unexpectedly, I raised a white-eyed wolf. He and Pan Nuannuan are a match made in heaven.
The ripples made no attempt to conceal themselves, and directly spoke in front of the two people.
After all, she wasn't lying. In the end, the two of them did become a couple and even stabbed the original owner in the back together, making the rest of the original owner's life miserable.
The first snowfall of winter lasted the whole night. When the sun rose, it finally stopped. The three pushed open the door and the cold wind that greeted them made all three shiver.
The male young intellectuals have already started clearing snow from the roof and the yard, otherwise, the roof is likely to collapse. Most households in the village are also doing the same thing.
During this time, the sounds of children's laughter and playful shouts could also be heard. They were free from work and could openly have snowball fights.
The three of them didn't participate in the snow removal work. Instead, they made a large pot of rabbit meat and noodle soup for breakfast. The ingredients were the leftover rabbit meat and broth from last night. After everyone had eaten their fill, they returned to their respective rooms and didn't plan on going out. Because so many hunters were injured, no one knew how they would be treated.
The road to Hongqi Commune was blocked by snow. Even when the road opened, it wouldn't be until the next day. Zhao Da Captain's wife took their young son and went straight to the town to pick up Zhao Da Captain. But she spent a whole day there. When evening came, the oxcart returned, but Zhao Da Captain and his family of three were nowhere to be found.
Old Zhao, who used to drive the ox cart, went to the village deputy captain's house. The next day, the educated youths learned that Captain Zhao had suffered a sudden stroke and was unconscious. The medical center told them to take him back home to prepare for his funeral.
While Captain Zhao's wife was making a scene, crying and screaming that the clinic had killed someone, she was arguing with the people at the clinic.
That afternoon, Zhao Jingcheng made an excuse to exchange coarse grain and came to visit Lian Yi.l. She quickly put on a distressed makeup look, brewed up some emotions, and posed herself just right, waiting for Zhang Yongcheng to arrive."Ripple."Zhang Yongcheng softly called out.Her head turned...
