Chapter 190: Easily Gaining Children’s Favor
The mothers-in-law and aunties who were originally trying to comfort Ruan Yuntang all withdrew their hands and looked at her with disgust.
It turns out he comes from a capitalist family!
How could such a person really care about the children of these poor people? She probably urged Dr. Qiao in a hurry just to complete the task perfunctorily.
So, they said coldly, "If you don't want to wait, forget it. No one asked you to wait. We can take care of the children in our village!"
As they spoke, they waved to the two children in front of Qiao Sujin.
"Da Ya, Er Ya, don't be afraid. After this sister has examined you, follow your aunt and wait for your father to come back!"
However, the two children looked at her timidly, then quickly pushed Qiao Sujin's hand away and ran towards Ruan Yuntang, hugging her thighs tightly.
"No, we want to be with this beautiful sister!"
The dependence and joy in his tone could not be hidden.
In an instant, everyone was surprised.
The old lady's face froze for a long time before she smiled and said:
"Daya, stop hugging her legs. Your hands are dirty. She might be disgusted by them, and you're still trying so hard to get close to her!"
"Besides, what's the point of you following her? This girl can't treat illnesses. You'd better let this gentle military doctor take a look at you first!"
"Yeah, yeah, let go!"
As they spoke, several older aunts came forward and held the hands of the two children.
The force was so great that the child's wrist turned red.
Ruan Yuntang couldn't bear it any longer and shouted coldly, "Let go!"
Several aunts were startled and unconsciously let go of their hands, but said unhappily:
"Why are you being so mean to us? You already despise us so much, and now you're pretending to be nice even though we're helping you?"
Ruan Yuntang sneered,
"What's the matter? You can guess what others are thinking even through their bellies. If you are so powerful, why don't you go to the battlefield and make contributions?"
The aunties were frightened and wanted to speak, but the child holding Ruan Yuntang's thigh started crying:
"Sister Ruan doesn't despise us at all. She even shared candy with us. She even shared several bags of White Rabbit candy with us! There was a puddle on the way here just now, and Sister Ruan carried Erya all the way!"
Hearing the sound, everyone in the audience widened their eyes in surprise.
But after a moment, the aunts looked at each other, sneered, and didn't believe it at all.
White Rabbit milk candy is only available in state-owned stores and is more expensive than white sugar. Let alone several bags, who would give this good thing to a few stranger kids for free?
Just as I was thinking this, the sound of children playing and playing suddenly came from outside the house.
They were the children of their respective families.
He ran in excitedly, chewing something in his mouth, but at the moment he ran towards his parents, he changed direction halfway and ran towards Ruan Yuntang happily.
"Wow! Sister Tangtang!"
"Sister Tangtang, you haven't left yet!"
In a blink of an eye, a group of children happily surrounded Ruan Yuntang.
"God!"
"Li Wang!"
The aunt and several other aunties called out to people with stiff faces, but none of them turned their heads. They all gathered around Ruan Yuntang's legs and were as attentive as pugs.
Qiao Sujin was also stunned by this scene.
How insidious! They only know how to trick children!
After Ruan Yuntang looked back at the children one by one, he glanced at the women with sullen faces, gently rubbed the children's heads, and said with a smile:
"Alright, your mother is calling you, hurry up and go over there!"
Hearing the sound, the group of children were still reluctant to leave. They acted coquettishly for a while before turning around and walking towards their families.
The expressions of the group of aunties became even more complicated, especially when they saw their children holding a few White Rabbit milk candies in their pockets, surprise flashed in their eyes.
"Where are you from?" they asked solemnly.
The children frowned and said reluctantly, "This was given to us by Sister Tangtang. We didn't steal it!"
In an instant, the aunts looked at Ruan Yuntang in surprise, their faces becoming embarrassed.
After all, you should be grateful for what you have received.
Just now they were thinking of her like that.
"Hey, Comrade Ruan, I'm sorry. We might have misunderstood you just now. We were just worried that the child was annoying you."
Listening to their excuses, Ruan Yuntang didn't say much, but just looked at Qiao Sujin, "Can we give Daya and Erya a good look now?"
Qiao Sujin's face froze for a moment.
No one expected that she could actually make these adults look good with the help of a few children.
"I'm sorry, maybe I did misunderstand." She laughed awkwardly and quickly checked the two dirty children.
"There's nothing wrong with them, just some scrapes on their legs and some malnutrition. I just need to apply some medicine on them."
Hearing this, Ruan Yuntang looked at the two skinny little girls, sighed softly, and coaxed them, "Go and apply the medicine obediently. After you're done, I'll give you some candy, okay?"
"Okay." The two little girls' eyes lit up and they went to apply the medicine obediently.
The other children were jealous when they heard this, and they wished they were the ones being coaxed by Ruan Yuntang's gentle words.
After a while, the two girls finished painting.
Ruan Yuntang took the two little girls to ask about their parents and learned that their mother had died in the flood, leaving only their old father, who was now helping to move supplies.
An old aunt smiled and said, "Comrade Ruan, if you need anything, just leave Daya and the others here. We'll just watch over them."
Ruan Yuntang looked at the two girls.
They were very sensible and nodded after only a moment's hesitation. Before leaving, they cautiously tugged at Ruan Yuntang's sleeve and whispered:
"Will my sister come to see us again?"
Ruan Yuntang softened his heart and said with a smile: "Yes, and you can come to me anytime. I will come to you when I am settled."
The two little girls' eyes suddenly flashed with joy.
Ruan Yuntang coaxed her a few more times before turning around and leaving.
When we returned to the place where supplies were distributed, Jiang Yubai was gone.
"Where's your leader?"
Ruan Yuntang asked with a frown, and just as he finished asking, a group of people rushed over from a distance.
The leader was Jiang Yubai, carrying someone on his back, followed by Zheng Feng, who also had someone on his back.
Ruan Yuntang took a closer look, his pupils shrank slightly, and he rushed forward.
"What happened to Aunt Jiang?"
Zheng Feng was anxious and had no time to reply. He rushed up the hillside with the person on his back.
Jiang Yubai, carrying the child on his back, hurriedly replied, "He fell into the ditch."
Ruan Yuntang hurriedly followed them back to the team.
As soon as they reached the door, Qiao Sujin came hurriedly to greet them, invited Jiang Yubai and Zheng Feng into the inner room, and then reached out to stop Ruan Yuntang.
"If you don't have any other relatives, just wait outside."
Ruan Yuntang knew that she didn't want to see him, and he didn't force her to go in, so he could only stop and wait outside.
Qiao Sujin turned around with satisfaction and returned to the specially cleaned-up treatment room.
Her gaze first fell on Jiang Li's face, with surprise flashing in her eyes, "Aunt Jiang...Aunt Jiang?"
Zheng Feng raised his eyes sharply and looked at her.
Qiao Sujin then remembered that she had not met Jiang Li yet, so she quickly restrained her expression and took out the medicine box to apply medicine to them.
Jiang Yubai stared at her back with deep thought in his eyes.
