Fang Yan felt dizzy and, after swaying a few times, finally fell to the ground.
The pain from falling straight to the ground jolted her awake, and she quickly used both hands and feet to reach for the little fish.
Although she was so worried and scared that she was trembling all over, her hands were shaking uncontrollably, her throat was choked, and she wanted to cry.
But her fragile rationality kept reminding Fang Yan that she had to stay calm and not let crying distract her!
Fang Yan secretly bit her tongue, using the pain to stimulate her mind, which was in a state of panic due to fear and unable to think clearly, and gradually calmed down.
Like a hand with a motor attached, it kept shaking and shaking. Several times I tried to check Xiaoyuzai's breath, but I couldn't accurately put the hand under his nostril.
Fang Yan breathed a sigh of relief after finally getting her hands under control and finally feeling that breath. She then checked Qi Bei's breathing again.
fortunately!
Both children are still breathing, and their breathing is relatively steady.
"Second sister-in-law, could you please hold Xiaoyuzai for me? My eldest sister-in-law and I will go with Qibei." After confirming that Xiaoyuzai and Qibei were still alive, Fang Yan felt much more at ease and her mind cleared up. She began to make arrangements. "Chuchun, could you please run back to the village first and find Aunt Wang? Tell her that I need to borrow her bicycle."
"Have Aunt Wang tie a bamboo basket to the back of the bicycle."
Only in this way can we bring Qibei and Xiaoyuzai to the county town together.
Grandpa Niu's oxcart was too slow, and Fang Yan wasn't worried about wasting time on the road, so she could only let Chu Xia run back to the village first and borrow a bicycle from Aunt Wang.
That way, once she returns to the village with Little Fish and Qibei, she can immediately set off for the county town.
"Okay." Before the words were even finished, Chu Chun had already taken off running into the village.
Aunt De corrected Fang Yan's arrangement, "Let the eldest son's wife and the second son's wife carry Qi Bei, they are strong. The third son's wife, you carry Xiao Yu Zai."
Although it hasn't been weighed, a conservative estimate is that Qibei weighs around 60 to 70 kilograms.
The small fish only weighs about 20 kilograms.
Fang Yan was thin with skinny arms and legs, and Aunt De was worried that she wouldn't be able to lift Qibei.
Aunt De's two daughters-in-law fully agreed with her arrangement, saying, "Third daughter-in-law, listen to my mother, let's do it this way."
The reason I made that arrangement was because the mischievous kids and furry children are all from my own family.
Fang Yan felt embarrassed to let someone else take care of the heaviest baby.
Now that Aunt De has made this arrangement, Fang Yan didn't try to be a hero.
The group wasted no more time, divided the work, and hurried towards the village.
"Third brother's wife, you don't need to worry too much. The child looks fine, so there shouldn't be any major problems."
The mountain path was difficult to walk, and Chu Xia, being sensible, helped Aunt De along.
Aunt De was panting heavily as she walked, but she still made sure to comfort Fang Yan.
She noticed that Fang Yan, due to nervousness, almost tripped over her right foot several times with her left.
"Yes, everything will be alright, everything will be alright, they will be alright." Fang Yan said, as if responding to Aunt De, but more so as if comforting herself.
Although both Little Fish and Qibei were still breathing, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, until it was confirmed that the two of them were alright, Fang Yan couldn't help but worry, be afraid, and be nervous, and she couldn't help but overthink.
Aunt De continued, "I've lived here for decades, and I've seen several kinds of snakes in Lion's Roar Ridge. I think Little Fish and Qibei were bitten by the Red Spear Green Snake."
Gouzi Village is located at the foot of Lion Roar Ridge. People rely on the mountain for their livelihood. In the past, Aunt De would go into the mountains with her to cut firewood, gather pig feed, and hunt. She had encountered snakes many times and had even been bitten by them. She knew a little about the snakes of Lion Roar Ridge.
The Red Spear Green Snake is a venomous snake unique to Lion's Roar Ridge, and it expels venom through its molars.
Although its venom is poisonous, it is not a deadly poison that can kill instantly.
"If someone is bitten by a red-spear green snake, they will feel dizzy and faint. However, as long as it doesn't take more than twelve hours, they can be saved. There are several people in our village who were bitten by red-spear green snakes before, and they are still alive and well."
The incident happened so suddenly that Aunt De was also frightened and her mind was still reeling for a while.
As he walked, he looked at Xiaoyuzai's face and recalled that in the past, some people in the village had been bitten by snakes and had symptoms similar to Xiaoyuzai's.
The more Aunt De thought about it, the more convinced she became that Little Fish and Qibei must have been bitten by the Red Spear Green Snake.
Fang Yan knew nothing about snakes and had never had the chance to come into contact with such an animal in her previous life.
However, when she heard Aunt De say that as long as it hadn't been more than twelve hours, they could be saved, she felt a little relieved. "Xiaoyu and Qibei left home a little before 2 o'clock. They must have played in the alley for a while, and then for some reason, they ran up the mountain. Even if they were bitten by snakes as soon as they got up the mountain, it was probably only an hour or two ago."
That means there is plenty of time for the rescue.
However, even so, Fang Yan still dared not waste a single second.
As soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, they saw Aunt Wang, her daughter-in-law, and Chu Chun, pushing a bicycle with a large basket tied to the back seat, waiting there.
"Quick, quick, put them in the basket!" Seeing them arrive, Aunt Wang directed her daughter-in-law to push her bicycle to greet them, and then asked, "How did Little Fish manage to take the clams up the mountain by himself?"
Fang Yan also wanted to know the answer to this question. "I don't know. I'll have to ask him when he wakes up."
"The three families, Qibei and Xiaoyuzai, together weigh almost 100 pounds. Can you carry them?"
Aunt De looked at them, put the little fish and the baby fish into the basket, and asked worriedly, "Should we go to the village and get another man to take them to the hospital?"
“It’s alright, I can carry them,” Fang Yan said firmly.
She herself weighs less than 100 pounds, yet she was carrying two children who weighed nearly 100 pounds.
Moreover, half of the route is mountain road and the other half is uneven dirt road, making the road conditions very poor.
But there's a saying that women are inherently weak, but become strong when they become mothers.
Although Xiaoyuzai was not her biological child, Fang Yan inherited the original owner's body, as well as all her memories and emotions.
Her love for her child gave her the firm resolve and strong will to overcome all difficulties.
"Aunt De, Aunt Wang, and a few other sisters-in-law, thank you all. I'll take them to the hospital first."
After putting Xiaoyuzai and Qibei away, Fang Yan greeted everyone before pushing her bicycle and riding towards the county town.
The weight on the back seat is too heavy, while the front of the bike is too light, resulting in uneven weight distribution and causing the front of the bicycle to uncontrollably tilt upwards.
Especially when encountering a small pothole or a small stone, even a slight bump will cause the front of the car to sway like a headless fly.
Fang Yan gritted her teeth and used all her strength to press down on the front of the car, preventing it from lifting up.
Even so, she tried twice, but couldn't get on the bike because the handlebars were too light.
After a great deal of effort, I finally managed to ride the bicycle...
