Many people in the village ran to the canal to join in the fun.
Everyone in Lao Wang's family was worried that something had happened to Zhengkang, so they ran in front.
But when he got there, he found Zhengkang sitting on the ground, just staring at his hands with a dull look on his face.
Wang Shouren immediately ran forward and pulled him up. "It's so cold, what are you doing sitting on the ground?"
Zhengkang came to his senses immediately when he felt the warmth of Wang Shouren's hand, and burst into tears on his shoulder, "Dad!"
Qian Shulan pushed aside the onlookers, glanced at the two people hugging each other, and quickly looked away.
She saw a little boy lying on the ground. After she saw his appearance clearly, she couldn't help but shout, "Da Shuanzi?"
At this time, Da Shuanzi was wearing thin clothes and lying flat on the cold and muddy ground. His facial features were extremely thin, his face was blue, his lips were pale, and his skin was terribly dry and cracked. "What's wrong with him?"
Qian Shulan couldn't believe it! Is he dead
She squatted down and was about to check on him when she saw Zhengkang suddenly push his father away, squatted down and said to Qian Shulan anxiously, "Grandma, please look at him. I don't know what happened to him. He suddenly fainted. I called for a long time, but he didn't wake up."
Qian Shulan's heart was in turmoil. She reached out to feel Da Shuanzi's pulse under his neck. Feeling a pulse, she breathed a sigh of relief. "This child may have fainted from hunger."
Soon Old Yang came over, squeezed into the crowd and carefully felt Da Shuanzi's pulse, "This kid is still alive!" He cursed at the crowd, "Who was that just now! How dare you curse someone to death!"
A little boy scratched his head, feeling a little aggrieved, "Zhengkang said so."
Zheng Kang, who had been thinking that he had killed someone, was almost scared to death. Now he regained some spirit, "Didn't I touch his nose and he stopped breathing?"
Old Yang glared at him. "It's so cold, and he's wearing so little. He must have caught a cold. He's probably breathing through his mouth!"
Qian Shulan didn't have time to listen to him talking about these profound principles, so she quickly asked Wang Shouren and Wang Shouyi to carry the child away.
The other onlookers noticed what the child was wearing and sighed.
After Qian Shulan stood up, she took off her cotton jacket and covered Dashuanzi with it.
The cold wind blew over and Qian Shulan felt a little cold even though she was only wearing a sweater. She couldn't help shivering.
In order to warm herself up, Qian Shulan ran quickly.
When they got home, Qian Shulan asked Li Chunhua to cook rice porridge.
After it boiled, she personally served a bowl to Dashuanzi.
Da Shuanzi had a fever, so Qian Shulan took out the antipyretic medicine she had kept at home. She had asked the doctor to prescribe more of it when Dana had a fever. She had never expected it would come in handy now.
After taking a fever-reducing pill and sleeping for another night, Dashuanzi woke up the next morning.
The first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was Qian Shulan standing beside him, and he became excited.
As soon as he moved, Qian Shulan woke up.
"How are you? Are you okay?"
Qian Shulan slept in the space last night. She came out of the space at seven o'clock for fear that others would notice something unusual.
But I'm still a little sleepy.
"Grandma Qian, were you the one who saved me?" Dashuanzi's voice was very hoarse, even a little rough, like the sound of sand rubbing against each other, which was a bit creepy.
Qian Shulan was stunned for a long time before she frowned and looked at him, "What's wrong with your throat?"
Da Shuanzi licked his lips and was about to speak when Qian Shulan interrupted him.
Yesterday, in order to fill his stomach with food, but because he was still unconscious, Qian Shulan fed him salt water. He couldn't eat the cooked white rice porridge at all.
Now that he had woken up, he must be very hungry. Qian Shulan noticed that he kept pounding his stomach with his fists.
Qian Shulan hurried to the coal stove in the main room to get some rice porridge. After handing it to him, she began to explain, "You were too unconscious last night, I couldn't feed you at all! Eat quickly."
Da Shuanzi got up, his body still a little limp. Qian Shulan was worried that he would catch a cold again, so she immediately wrapped him in the military coat.
Dashuanzi immediately began to eat the porridge in big mouthfuls.
After he finished a bowl, he seemed still not full, so Qian Shulan went to get another bowl.
I ate three bowls in a row, but I still wasn’t full.
Qian Shulan shook her head and refused to serve him more. "You've been hungry for too long. If you eat too much at once, it will easily cause problems. Eat later."
Dashuanzi nodded.
After finishing the meal, Qian Shulan remembered the question he had asked just now, "I saved you, but Zhengkang found you first. But how did you meet Zhengkang?"
Because she had asked Dashuanzi to cheat Zhengkang of his money before, Dashuanzi should not appear in front of Zhengkang.
Dashuanzi looked at the thick quilt covering himself and couldn't help but began to cry.
Qian Shulan looked at him quietly.
Dashuanzi wiped his tears and said, "I was hiding by the canal waiting for you, but I didn't expect to be bumped into by Zhengkang. He insisted that I was a thief. I explained to him, but he didn't believe me. He also talked about the time I cheated him. I fell down after being pushed." At this point, he felt very embarrassed, "I have been hungry for several days and I don't have the strength to run. Grandma Qian, I'm really sorry."
"It's okay! It's no big deal if he knows that we know each other. Just say that you sold me a cicada monkey before." Qian Shulan comforted him, and then remembered to ask, "Where's Xiao Lihua?"
"The weather was too cold and we hadn't eaten for many days. I was worried that she would exhaust her energy by walking too far, so I asked her to wait at home."
Qian Shulan nodded and said, "Why didn't you come here earlier to buy sweet potatoes?"
Da Shuanzi said with a bitter face, "The money my sister and I hid was taken away by someone. I refused to give it back, so the person beat me up. My sister and I haven't eaten for several days. I was chewing tree bark all the time, and my voice has become hoarse."
"Who is so hateful?"
"It's refugees! Many refugees have already walked to our village, and they will be here soon."
Qian Shulan nodded and asked, "What about your family? Don't you have any food at all?"
Da Shuanzi shook his head helplessly, "No one in the family has any food. We used all the money we got from the team to buy food. Food in the city is very expensive, and we can't buy much."
Qian Shulan sighed, "Then I'll get you some food first. Pay me back when you have money."
She had used this reason many times, and it had never worked before. But this time, Dashuanzi took a long time to say no to her.
But his face was full of confusion, and after a long while he stammered, "Grandma Qian, my father said that people should have backbone!"
He was obviously extremely hungry, but he was still able to endure the hunger and say such courageous words. Qian Shulan was already crying.
She rubbed the child's head, feeling very distressed, "Da Shuanzi, you are such a good child."
Dashuanzi, who was praised so much, burst into tears.
After crying for a while, Qian Shulan said, "How about this. You promise to help me do something. I will pay you food in advance."
Da Shuanzi hesitated. He wiped the tears from his face and asked, "Grandma Qian, what do you want me to do for you?"
Seeing that he was determined to get to the bottom of it, Qian Shulan thought for a moment and said, "This is very dangerous. I'm going to send you to a place where you have no relatives, and you have to help me make a lot of money. It has to be twice as much as I give you. Are you willing?"
Da Shuanzi opened his mouth in surprise and quickly shook his head in protest, "Grandma Qian, speculation will lead to jail time."
Qian Shulan told him confidently, "I will send you to Hong Kong. You won't go to jail if you do business there."
Hong Kong? What is that place? As a native of Linyang Province, Da Shuanzi had naturally never heard of this place.
Qian Shulan had no choice but to send the child away. The child's identity was already quite dangerous here.
During that decade of movement, those "slippery fish" like him who had grown up would definitely be handed over by the brigade cadres to make up the numbers.
She didn't want such a good child to suffer like that.
He could have lived a good life, but this era failed him.
Da Shuanzi asked tentatively, "You really won't go to jail?"
Qian Shulan touched his head and sighed, "When has Grandma Qian ever lied to you?"
Da Shuanzi shook his head quickly, "Granny Qian is a good person." He curled his lips and said in a hoarse voice, "If there is such a place, I am not afraid. I will definitely help you make money."
Qian Shulan sighed, "That place is heaven for many people, but it is also hell for many people."
Qian Shulan had never been to Hong Kong, let alone Hong Kong during this period.
All she knew were those TVB dramas, and most of them were police and gangster dramas.
She secretly guessed that if a place’s police were so famous, it must be because there were enough prisoners and the public security was terrible!
Qian Shulan told him, "You must be careful when you go to that place, and don't show off your wealth. Try to be the same as others."
Qian Shulan was worried that he couldn't understand Cantonese, so she thought of taking advantage of this period of time to teach him Cantonese.
Dashuanzi agreed immediately.
"Wait until I get my sister over."
Qian Shulan nodded. These days, Dashuanzi's mother probably doesn't have time to look for them.
"How did your mother treat you?"
Da Shuanzi was silent for a rare moment. After a long while, he said, "I think she is in a difficult situation. If my sister and I go, maybe she can stand up straighter."
It's really hard for a woman with two burdens to find a man. Even if she finds one, the conditions won't be very good.
"Actually, my stepfather was pretty good to us. He at least gave us a place to stay and never let anyone criticize us. My leaving would save him a lot of trouble."
This child is really kind-hearted. He is still speaking for others and remembering the good things about others.
Qian Shulan didn't know what to say anymore.
"After lunch, Grandma Qian will take you to find your sister."
"Okay!" He thought for a moment and said, "But Grandma Qian, you'd better stay away from our village. If they see you dressed so well, they will definitely do something bad to you."
Qian Shulan nodded in agreement.
