At the county hospital, Deng Xingming finally gave up on Chen Xuanxuan and gave up on giving her the injection. But he was even more worried than before.
Deng Xingming's eyes were fixed on Chen Xuanxuan. Seeing her lying on the bed, he hurried over and advised, "Since you don't want to get an injection, you should exercise more. The doctor said that this way the baby can enter the pelvis earlier."
Chen Xuanxuan was too lazy to move. Her belly was so big that she was out of breath after walking a few steps. She shouted at him impatiently, "I'm not going!"
Deng Xingming continued to persuade her, "The doctor said..."
Chen Xuanxuan was so angry that her head hurt because of the non-stop chattering. She yelled, "Who should give birth to the baby, me or you? You keep talking non-stop. Can you please leave me alone for a while?"
Deng Xingming was furious, but there was nothing he could do about her.
In this way, it was not until twelve days after the due date that Chen Xuanxuan finally showed signs of pregnancy.
Previously, the contractions only happened once every one or two hours, but during that day, they gradually shortened to once every five minutes.
At night, it finally started, and Chen Xuanxuan was in so much pain that her forehead was covered in sweat.
Soon, she was pushed into the delivery room by the nurse. After five hours of tossing and turning until dark, she finally gave birth to a baby boy.
Deng Xingming was extremely happy holding the child.
The newborn baby was wrinkled and not good-looking at all, but he was extremely satisfied.
Chen Xuanxuan was very tired and fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning, Chen Xuanxuan said to Deng Xingming, who had been coaxing the child, "I asked Section Chief Xu to buy a piece of fine cloth for the baby last time. You can go to the department store to find him."
Deng Xingming is now content with having a son. Hearing this, he immediately put the child down and said, "Okay."
Chen Xuanxuan looked at his back, glanced at the child, and comforted him softly, "Good boy, little baby, you will meet your father soon. Are you happy?"
An hour later, Deng Xingming came back, and Xu Wenhou came with him.
Deng Xingming explained to Chen Xuanxuan somewhat helplessly, "Section Chief Xu was too enthusiastic and insisted on coming over to see the child."
Chen Xuanxuan's eyes twinkled, and she smiled at Xu Wenhou and said, "Chief Xu, please take a seat."
Xu Wenhou looked around and didn't find any stool, so he said, "No need, I'll just stand." Then he put the things he brought on the bedside table.
Chen Xuanxuan hurriedly urged Deng Xingming, "Hurry up and show the child to Section Chief Xu. He came here just to see the child."
After she reminded him of this, Deng Xingming immediately picked up the child from the crib.
Xu Wenhou stared at it eagerly, and when Deng Xingming came over to hold the baby, he took it eagerly. It was also his first time to hold a child, so his posture was a little wrong. Deng Xingming taught him for a long time.
When he finally adjusted his posture, Xu Wenhou finally had time to look at the child in his arms. The child was very white, with big eyes, a high nose bridge, and a face shape like Chen Xuanxuan. The mouth was a bit like his, but the child was too young, so it was a little bit unnoticeable.
Xu Wenhou couldn't help but kiss him on the face. The milky scent was so fragrant and smelled so good.
Several meters away from this ward, Deng Yunping was lying in the water room, looking towards this ward. She seemed to have dressed up again today, wearing clothes that only women in their 50s and 60s would wear, with her hair down, and the skin on her face was very green, a bit like rotten vegetable leaves. She turned her head to glance at Qian Shulan who was fetching water, thought for a moment and asked, "Mom, should we go over there?"
Qian Shulan glanced at her and said, "Are you stupid? This is a normal visit. It would be a problem if you rushed in."
Deng Yunping was a little dumbfounded. "What should we do? If Xu Wenhou comes again in the future, even if we catch him in the act, he can still say it's a normal visit."
Qian Shulan shook her head. "It's enough for an ordinary relative to come and visit once. If you come twice, your brother will be suspicious even if you don't say anything."
Finally, she leaned over to Deng Yunping's ear and said, "I'll go find a doctor to do a blood test on the three of them. Maybe they can find out the problem."
Deng Yunping's eyes lit up, "Is it okay?"
Qian Shulan spread her hands and said, "Blood tests are easy, but this kind of thing also depends on luck."
If Deng Xingming and Xu Wenhou have the same blood type, then the test is useless.
Even if the two people's blood types are different, if Chen Xuanxuan is type A and Deng Xingming is type B, the child could be either type, and the blood test would be useless. So this thing also depends on luck.
Deng Yunping didn't care at all. As long as there was a slight chance, she was willing to try.
Qian Shulan nodded and said, "You take Xiao Min and hide here. Be careful not to let her touch the water heater. I'll be out for a while."
Deng Yunping nodded immediately. She held Xiao Min's hand and occasionally glanced sideways at the ward.
Qian Shulan went to see a doctor.
After Qian Shulan's help, the doctor finally agreed to do a blood test for them.
It was just that the doctor was in a hurry to eat, “I’ll go back to them to draw blood after I finish eating.”
Qian Shulan was not in a hurry and nodded in agreement.
In the ward, Xu Wenhou, who had coaxed the child for a long time, handed the baby to Deng Xingming, turned his back to him, blinked at Chen Xuanxuan, and then said with a smile, "I'm leaving first. The child is very cute."
Chen Xuanxuan smiled and nodded, saying politely, "Come again next time!"
Deng Xingming carried the child and sent the person away. Chen Xuanxuan turned her head to look at the things Xu Wenhou brought over.
A set of baby clothes, made of white muslin, really pretty, and a box of biscuits, probably for her.
"City people are still better." Chen Xuanxuan suddenly sighed while holding the clothes.
Deng Xingming felt very uncomfortable after hearing this, but he still advised, "Xuanxuan, don't worry, I will definitely work hard in the future and strive to let you and the child live a good life as soon as possible."
Chen Xuanxuan sneered in her heart, "I'm hungry, go buy me a meal."
Deng Xingming agreed immediately.
Not long after, he came back with two meals.
He didn't have a ticket. When he came, he brought sweet potatoes with him, which were exchanged for coarse grain tickets at the hospital cafeteria. They have been living here for six days and his tickets are almost gone.
He hesitated for a long time before telling Chen Xuanxuan with a red face, "Xuanxuan, let's be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. We have no more food coupons."
Chen Xuanxuan was so angry that she didn't want to pay any attention to him.
Deng Xingming had no choice but to eat in silence.
Just then, the nurse came in and said, "Maternity girl, follow me to the doctor for a checkup."
Chen Xuanxuan put down the sweet potato she had not finished eating and followed the nurse out.
After a while, another nurse came in and said, "I'll take the baby for a checkup."
Deng Xingming glanced at her, nodded, and continued eating.
About half an hour later, Chen Xuanxuan came back. As soon as she came in, she said to Deng Xingming, "I just asked specifically, and the doctor suggested that we stay in the hospital for three days and can only be discharged if I don't have heavy bleeding."
Deng Xingming heard the doctor say this, and could only nod, "Then I'll go back and get some more sweet potatoes."
Chen Xuanxuan was finally satisfied. She turned her head to look at the crib, which was empty. "Where's the baby?"
Deng Xingming immediately explained to her, "Just now a nurse came over to check on the child and took him away."
Chen Xuanxuan frowned and said in a bad tone, "What nurse? Why don't you go with us?"
Deng Xingming was stunned by her scolding. "It was the nurse in white clothes. Not long after you left, she came over to check the child and took him away."
Chen Xuanxuan started to curse, "Where's that person? Where's the child?"
Seeing her attitude, Deng Xingming did not argue with her. He turned around and left the ward and walked to the nurses' station. "Excuse me, where did your nurse take my son just now?"
There were two nurses on duty at the nurses' station. The others had gone to eat. When they heard what he said, they were all confused. After looking at each other, they all shook their heads and said, "We didn't hold him."
Deng Xingming was even more confused than them and immediately became anxious. "Just now, a girl in her twenties came over to hold my son and said she wanted to take him for a checkup."
The nurse quickly waved her hands, "No, it's dinner time now, everyone is eating, there's no way anyone will check on your baby."
Deng Xingming suddenly felt as if struck by lightning. He could not believe his ears. It was as if he was struck by lightning, or as if someone poured a basin of cold water over him from head to toe, leaving him numb all over.
His eyes widened like cowbells, and suddenly everything went dark. "My son..."
Then he fell backwards with a thud.
The two nurses were scared to death and quickly came over from behind the table, helped the man up, one pinched his Ren Zhong point while the other helped him lay flat.
Two nurses were giving first aid, and Chen Xuanxuan, who had been waiting for someone to come back, walked out of the room. When she saw Deng Xingming lying on the ground, her eyes flickered.
She looked anxious, squatted down, and asked anxiously, "What happened to my man?"
The nurse didn't know what was wrong with this man. He suddenly came to them for their son and then fainted. She answered Chen Xuanxuan's question truthfully, "He fainted just now because of the shock."
The other nurse thought more and explained the whole story directly, "He just said that your son was taken away by a nurse, but the other nurses went to eat, and there were only two of us on duty."
Chen Xuanxuan's eyes widened, her lips trembling, "Are you saying that my son was taken away?"
Seeing that she was about to faint, the nurse suddenly shouted anxiously, "It's not certain yet."
Chen Xuanxuan staggered a few steps and barely managed to hold her body, and then she saw Deng Xingming being woken up by the nurse.
Seeing the two nurses, Deng Xingming immediately remembered what happened before. He grabbed one of the nurses by the sleeve and asked, "Where is my son?"
The two nurses shook their heads.
Deng Xingming quickly got up from the ground and said to Chen Xuanxuan, "Wait here. I'm going to call the police."
Chen Xuanxuan covered her face with her hands and began to cry bitterly.
Deng Xingming heard her crying, but he didn't bother to comfort her. He quickly pushed through the crowd and ran downstairs.
After a while, the police arrived.
This matter was easy to investigate. It was just that a girl pretended to be a nurse and took away someone's newborn baby.
After the police officer finished taking the statement, he said to the two people, "Don't worry, we will do our best to help you get the child back." He paused and said, "But you have to be mentally prepared. There are so many people and Liuguan County is so big. We can't search every house. The possibility of finding the child is a bit low. But don't worry, we will definitely try our best."
After he left, Deng Xingming was still standing there like a wooden stake.
Chen Xuanxuan, who had been crying and covering her face, threw herself at Deng Xingming, raised her fist and started to hit him, cursing in a shrill voice, "Deng Xingming, you coward, I want to divorce you!"
Deng Xingming let her vent, with regret and pain on his face.
The policeman on the other side came out of the hospital and just walked to the gate when he heard someone calling him from behind.
Qian Shulan walked over slowly with Xiao Min by her hand and said to the policeman, "Comrade policeman, I want to tell you something."
The police officer was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had seen the suspect, and hurriedly said, "Go ahead!"
"The young couple who lost their child just now were educated youth from our production team. My fourth daughter-in-law had seen that woman with Section Chief Xu from the department store before. Section Chief Xu was the first one to come to see the child this morning. Not long after he left, the child was lost."
Hearing this, the policeman's face was full of surprise. He obviously didn't expect that a simple missing baby case would involve so many people. His face was serious, "Go on!"
Qian Shulan nodded and said, "I just saw a nurse take the child away, so I asked my daughter to follow her."
The policeman was so happy that his face was beaming with joy. It was really great. He asked anxiously, "Where is she?"
Qian Shulan glanced outside the door several times and said, "Wait a minute, she should be here soon."
The policeman breathed a sigh of relief and didn't feel annoyed. He stood by the door and waited with Qian Shulan. It was a bit boring after a long time, so he asked some more questions about these three people.
Qian Shulan said everything she should have said. What she shouldn't have said was that she concealed the fact that Deng Xingming was her biological son. Anyway, it had nothing to do with this matter.
The more the police listened, the more they felt that there was something wrong.
Soon, Deng Yunping came running over from the opposite side, panting. She came to Qian Shulan, holding onto the wall and breathing heavily. When she saw a policeman standing next to her mother, she immediately understood what her mother meant, "Policeman, the child has been taken away. Come with me to find him."
The police did not dare to delay and immediately followed Deng Yunping. After many twists and turns, they finally arrived at a private house.
Deng Yunping pointed at the door of the house and said, "This is it. I saw with my own eyes that nurse brought the child to this house."
The policeman nodded and asked her to hide aside. He walked over and knocked on the door.
After knocking for a long time, someone finally came to open the door.
"Who are you looking for?" A middle-aged woman came out of the house, opened the door, and frowned at the serious young man in front of her.
The police officer took out his work ID and said, "I am a police officer. I suspect your family is involved in child trafficking."
After saying that, without waiting for the middle-aged woman to react, he rushed past her and rushed inside.
The baby is hungry now and keeps crying, so it is easy to find him.
The police caught him right in the act.
He looked at the man holding the child in front of him. His age and appearance matched. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "What's your name?"
Xu Wenhou's heart tightened, and he said, "My name is Xu Wenhou. Excuse me, police officer, what can I do for you?"
The policeman immediately pulled out a gun from his body and pointed it at Xu Wenhou, "Put the baby down quickly!"
This action shocked everyone. The nurse who originally wanted to escape was scared to death and stood there stupidly, not moving at all.
The police officer took out a pair of handcuffs from his pocket and threw them to Xu Wenhou, ordering him, "Put them on yourself."
Then he threw another one to the nurse, "You too!"
Xu Wenhou's father looked at the gun and walked over, "Police comrade, what did my son and daughter do wrong? Why are you arresting them?"
The policeman avoided answering and said, "Wait until I send them to the police station, then you can come over to find out more about the situation."
After saying that, he shouted outside, "Auntie, come over and help hold the child."
Qian Shulan walked in immediately, bent down and picked up the crying child who was still lying on the sofa.
When Xu Wenhou saw her come in, he suddenly panicked. At this moment, he suddenly remembered the letter that Chen Xuanxuan asked him to bring, that the factory director was Deng Xingming's biological mother.
So he was completely exposed!
