Chapter 242 Whose Child?
Chapter 242 Whose Child?
The two couples returned to the family compound one after another. Not long after entering the door, Qin Yan suddenly stopped his bicycle.
"what happened?"
Lin Wanshu asked in a somewhat strange tone.
She couldn't wait to pick up Xiao Miaomiao and take her home.
"There's a kid there."
Qin Yan pointed to the dark corner.
Hearing this, Lin Wanshu could barely see a dark shadow huddled in the corner.
The black shadow was a small ball, and the child seemed to be only four or five years old.
Hearing that there were children outside, Qiu Yong also stopped the car.
"what happened?"
After all, he is the team leader. Seeing a child huddled here, he naturally has to show some concern.
Lin Wanshu had already walked in front of the child.
As I approached, I felt the shadow shrink towards the corner.
Seeing this, Lin Wanshu didn't dare to get any closer, so she squatted down and said gently, "Child, don't be afraid. I live here too. Whose family are you from? Why are you here alone?"
After getting used to the darkness, Lin Wanshu could barely recognize the little girl's appearance, and found that the child was very strange and she had never seen her before.
The child said nothing, just shook his head slightly.
She refused to say, so Lin Wanshu could only ask Qiu Yong, after all, he had stayed in the staff quarters longer than her.
"Captain Qiu, do you know her?"
Qiu Yong squinted his eyes for a while and shook his head.
"I haven't seen it before. Take it back and ask first."
Any child who appears in the staff quarters must be from here.
After all, there were people standing guard at the door, and people outside couldn't get in at all.
He Wenzhu also walked to Lin Wanshu's side. Although it was dark, she could still see that the child's clothes were a little thin and had several patches on them.
Frowning, she said, "Could it be that he just came to join the army?"
After all, there was no other child in the entire compound who dressed like this.
Hearing this, Qiu Yong seemed to remember something and said, "A few days ago, a family member did come to accompany the army. It seems to be from Lu Jingsong's family in the Fifth Battalion. I will ask him later to see if it is true."
As he said this, he was about to go forward and pick up the child.
But as soon as he touched someone, he hissed.
"This child has a fever and feels very hot to the touch. Hurry up and reduce her fever!"
Knowing that Lin Wanshu was also very good at reducing fever, he did not run a long way to the clinic, but planned to take her directly to Lin Wanshu's home.
Hearing this, Lin Wanshu touched her forehead and found that it was indeed very hot.
Without any delay, the four of them carried the child all the way back to Lin Wanshu's pharmacy.
After entering the door, Lin Wanshu took out a mask and put it on.
I don’t know if it’s a bacterial infection or a virus. She’s pregnant, so she needs to be careful.
After hearing this, Qiu Yong did not let He Wenzhu in, but just asked her to go home first.
After all, it's cold outside, and it's not good to let her wait at the door.
He Wenzhu was worried about Qiu Tingting, so she went back without forcing him.
As soon as she went out, Yang Zheng came over.
Seeing Lin Wanshu giving a massage to a child, she originally planned to wait outside, but when she saw the child's appearance, she exclaimed "Huh".
"Isn't this the tofu pudding from Fang Qiuyan's house?"
Qiu Yong was just about to ask if it was Lu Jingsong's child, but when he heard Yang Zheng's words, he hurriedly asked, "Do you know her?"
Yang Zheng nodded.
"I know her. How could I not know her? She is Lu Jingsong's daughter. She just came to the army a few days ago. How come she is sick?"
When Qiu Yong heard that it was really Lu Jingsong's family, his first impression was not very good.
How can you be a mother? You didn't even know your child was sick outside at this late hour.
"I'll go call her over."
Seeing that Fang Qiuyan was not there, Yang Zheng spoke enthusiastically.
After all, the child has a fever and is sick. How can the mother not be here?
"Okay, I'll trouble you then."
It just so happened that Qiu Yong was also worried about his wife, after all, she was pregnant.
Seeing someone going to look for Fang Qiuyan, he didn't stay long and went back.
Qin Yan just returned home with her and went out to look for Xiao Miaomiao. He hasn't come back yet.
Lin Wanshu and the little girl with tofu pudding are the only ones left in the family.
The little girl was very thin, and when you touched her, you could feel that she was just bones.
Lin Wanshu was afraid that if she used a little more strength, she would break her bones.
She had just examined Douhua and found that the fever was caused by cold, so she just needed to do a massage.
Lin Wanshu's technique was naturally impeccable. After a while of massage, the child's forehead and body began to sweat.
Just at this moment, Yang Zheng came back, followed by a strange lesbian.
The female comrade was also very thin, with yellow skin, and mud on her trouser legs and hands. You could tell at a glance that she had just returned from the fields.
"Wan Shu, Comrade Qiu Yan is here."
Yang Zheng took her into the house.
Fang Qiuyan looked at the incredibly beautiful doctor in front of her and suddenly didn't know what to do with her hands and feet. Her sallow face was full of awkwardness.
But seeing Douhua with his eyes closed on the bed, she still mustered up the courage to ask, "Doctor... Doctor, how is my daughter?"
Lin Wanshu didn't expect that the new military wife would be like this, and was a little surprised.
But she was wearing a mask and her expression could not be seen.
Seeing that she didn't seem like the type of person who didn't care about her children, Lin Wanshu softened her voice.
"She has a fever caused by a cold. I have just given her a massage and her fever has subsided. I will prescribe some medicine for you later and you can take it home and cook it for her."
Hearing this, Fang Qiuyan quickly waved her hands.
"No... no need, it's OK as long as her fever goes down. How much is it? I... I'll get it for you..."
As she spoke, she wiped the mud off her hands and reached into her pocket to pull out two dimes and a nickel.
The money was a little worn, but it was still neatly stacked.
You can tell at a glance how much the owner values these few cents.
Seeing her like this, Lin Wanshu knew that she was afraid that she couldn't afford the medicine.
I don’t know what’s wrong with her man?
How could he let his wife and daughter live like this?
"What are you talking about, sister-in-law? We are all from the same family compound. It's just a favor, there's no need to pay for it."
Hearing this, Fang Qiuyan quickly waved her hands.
"That won't do. I'm already very grateful that you helped my daughter get treated. How can I take advantage of you?"
After hearing this, Lin Wanshu's impression of her changed a little.
"I can prescribe medicine for free here. If you have time, you can go with other sisters-in-law to pick some herbs for me to offset the cost of the medicine."
Hearing that she would not charge any money, Fang Qiuyan was visibly relieved.
"I can collect herbs. I have done it at home before. Doctor, just tell me what kind you want. I will go and collect it for you tomorrow."
Forget about asking her to collect herbs, even asking her to open up wasteland is fine, as long as she doesn't have to spend any money.
These few cents are all she has left.
