70s: Transmigrated as the Male Lead's Early Deceased Cannon Fodder Stepsister

Ning Xi unexpectedly died and transmigrated into a period novel she had read. She wasn't the female lead, nor a major supporting character; she was merely a minor cannon fodder described in les...

Chapter 131 Preparing to Close the Net

"Xiaoqiu, Xiaoxi, you are here."

Ning Shuhan was half lying on the bed, with thick gauze wrapped around her head, leaving only her eyes, mouth and nose exposed.

In addition to the gunshot wounds, she also had many abrasions and sprains from fighting with the enemy, and there was almost no healthy flesh left.

"Xiaoxi, thank you for your hard work. I haven't seen you for a few years, but you are still as beautiful as when you were a child." Ning Shuhan looked at Ning Xi first.

His eyebrows and eyes have grown, but he still looks a bit like a child.

When she was hit, she was actually determined to die. Her strength had long been exhausted. She relied entirely on her willpower to persevere, hoping to hold off the last enemy and buy some time for her teammates.

I didn't expect that he survived.

After falling into a coma, everything was in chaos and her memory remained at the previous state, but she always felt as if a special power was injected into her body, making her gradually wake up.

"Xiao Qiu, are you scared?"

"sister--"

Ning Jiqiu had been enduring it these past few days, trying to think positively, but at this moment, he couldn't help but shed two lines of tears.

"You are so dark and ugly now." Ning Shuhan looked at his facial features carefully.

He has become darker, thinner, and looks more mature.

The last time we met was before he went to the countryside. His younger brother, who had just graduated from high school and was still very immature, signed himself up to go to the countryside without waiting for everyone to discuss it.

"Sis, I'm so scared, and you're still making fun of me."

Ning Ji Qiu only showed his childish side in front of his sister.

Ning Xi knew that the two siblings had the best relationship, so she reserved this precious visiting time for them. She took the initiative to say, "Sister, you talk to Third Brother first. I'll call Uncle to prevent them from worrying."

In fact, she wanted to call last night, but it was too late and the commander said to wait until the situation was a little more stable before notifying the parents, so she didn't call.

......

Mingjiang City, People's Hospital, outside the ward.

Ning Zhisong's eyes lit up with surprise after hearing what Zhao Zhengrong said: "Really? That's good, that's good. Thank you for your help, Brother Zhao."

The pressure on him was not relieved until his eldest daughter was temporarily out of danger.

The eldest son and his wife have also woken up, but they have severe burns on their bodies and faces, and the situation is not optimistic.

Liu Chunmei was just too frightened and needs to rest now. There is no big problem.

Ning Zhongqi bowed to Zhao Zhengrong gratefully: "Thank you, Uncle Zhao. You have worked hard."

I didn't expect that Xiaoxi, the father-in-law, was so enthusiastic. He took the initiative to help as soon as the accident happened, without any airs at all.

I helped them with almost everything I could, running around for them.

All the money of the Ning family was in Liu Chunmei's hands, and the passbook was also in Liu Chunmei's name. When the person fainted, all the medical expenses were paid by Zhao Zhengrong.

He also gave Ning Zhisong two hundred yuan to use first.

They said they had enough things to do at home, and it would be even more troublesome to go and withdraw money, so it was better to have less trouble than more.

Zhao Zhengrong: "You're welcome. We are all family. If you need anything, just call me anytime. I will also let you know immediately if there is any news over there."

"If anything happens, just look for Doctor Zhao. He's my cousin, and I've already made arrangements. We're all relatives, so don't be embarrassed.

The fertilizer factory is investigating. They say the fire was set deliberately, and the police may come to question them."

Zhao Zhengrong picked out the important matters to explain clearly, then hurriedly said goodbye:

"I have some things to do at the factory, so I'll be leaving first. If you need me for anything, please call me."

Ning Zhisong and the others sent him to the hospital entrance: "Brother Zhao, I won't say any more polite words, anyway, thank you."

"Okay, I'm leaving now."

After everyone left, Guan Yulan said to Ning Zhisong, "Brother-in-law, go home and have a rest first. I'll take care of this place."

Ever since Liu Chunmei fainted, Guan Yulan has been taking care of her in the hospital. Ning Zhisong had to go home to get some things, take care of the children, and worry about his eldest daughter's affairs.

Now that the child has been sent to my eldest son's mother-in-law's house, I feel a little relieved.

But he looked haggard and looked like he might collapse at any moment.

"Yes, Dad, we are taking care of the child here, don't worry." The second son Ning Zhongqi and his wife also took leave, sent the child to the grandmother's house, and focused on taking care of the child in the hospital.

"Then I'll go back and rest for a while?"

Ning Zhisong also felt that he could not hold on any longer. He really could not leave in the past few days. If he continued to hold on now, it would cause trouble for everyone if something happened.

After thinking about it, I decided to go home and rest as advised.

"Xiao Shu, you've been taking care of your sister-in-law here for several days. You should go back and have a rest, and take a look at the child."

Yu Shu shook her head and refused. "I'm young and can still hold on. Aunt, you should go back and rest first. We still have to take care of brother-in-law Xiao Zhao at home. Hey? Mom, why are you here?"

Liu Chunmei was coming over with a lunch box.

Ning Zhongqi quickly ran over to support her and took the things in his hands. "Mom, didn't the doctor tell you to rest at home? Why did you come here?"

"I'm fine. I'm just getting irritated and anxious lying at home. It's better for me to come to the hospital. Don't worry, I'm much better now and I won't make things worse."

With her child injured like this, how could she, as a mother, sit still, let alone lie down and rest?

The eldest son’s wife, Wei Ying, was also seriously injured, but her parents had many children, and her parents had to take care of seven grandchildren, so they had no time to help.

Liu Chunmei: "Second brother, Xiaoshu, listen to your father, go back and have some rest, then go back to work. We are here, and it's not okay for you to always ask for leave."

"Mom, what you said is really wrong. My eldest brother and his wife are injured so badly. How can we have the energy to go to work? Didn't you say that when a family is in trouble, we have to help each other? We are young and have fast legs and feet, so we can be of use anyway."

Yu Shu said this sincerely.

Their generation has many brothers and sisters, and the only time they have a little free time throughout the year is winter, so everyone is rushing to have children in winter.

It is conceivable that it is common for sisters-in-law or younger sisters-in-law in a large family to stay in confinement together. When she gave birth, her two sisters-in-law were also in confinement.

My mother-in-law Liu Chunmei works in a restaurant and can't take leave often.

In the end, her sister-in-law and mother-in-law took turns taking care of her during the confinement period, and her husband took care of the child at night after get off work.

Whether it was eating, drinking, or other aspects, she was kept clean and comfortable.

It wouldn't be a big deal for her to help at this time.

"Okay, we don't need so many people if we all stay here to guard. Today, your second brother and I will just watch over it. Xiaoshu, big sister, you go back and rest."

"It's settled then." Ning Zhisong also agreed with this approach.

Who can bear to endure this? We still need to pay attention to scientific cooperation.

Zhao Zhengrong left the hospital and went straight to the government compound. He received a message asking him to find Liao Zhengxiong immediately.

The two men were not in a superior-subordinate relationship, and they didn't want to cause speculation from others, so whenever there was something to do, they would meet at home under the pretext of being father-in-law and son-in-law.

"Zhengrong, we've been told to close the net immediately. The Public Security Bureau is on standby. Your mission tonight is..."
