Chapter 179: Caught and sent for reformation [Additional]
Now, the truth is clear.
Yesterday, Chu Yue examined the granddaughter of Old Man Li and found that the child was often sick due to malnutrition and poor health. Chu Yue reminded them to feed their granddaughter something good to replenish her body.
At night, the whole village was talking about the fact that more than a dozen chickens in Song Dashun's house were going to be burned to death. Who wouldn't feel sad to hear that these healthy, lively hens were going to be burned to death like this?
The rumors circulating in the village were only half true. They only talked about chickens but did not mention chicken plague.
No one would care if a chicken infected with fowl plague was burned to death. Only when a live chicken is burned and wasted will people feel the pain and be reluctant to part with it.
After going back and forth like this, Old Man Li only listened halfway and had evil thoughts. He went out in the middle of the night to steal a chicken. Seeing that the chicken was sick and half-dead and didn't work, he thought that he was too strong and strangled the chicken to death when he pinched its neck.
So, Old Man Li and his wife killed the chicken and immediately made chicken soup for their granddaughter.
That's how this incident happened.
As the truth was revealed, the surrounding villagers became lively again.
"I told you it was Old Man Li who stole it, bah! You're scared now, but you refused to admit it just now!"
"I'm going to die... He even dared to eat a sick chicken. Old man Li is really crazy. He seems to love his granddaughter very much. How could he do such a stupid thing..."
"Catch him! Catch him! Thieves should be caught and sent to reformatory schools!"
The young man who had been hit by Old Man Li with a hoe was full of anger and shouted very arrogantly. He endured the pain and rushed over, wanting to catch Old Man Li and beat him up.
Chu Yue stood in front of him and reminded him sarcastically, "He caught chickens infected with fowl plague. Aren't you afraid of contracting the plague if you touch him now?"
The arrogant young man was stunned for a moment.
Not to mention him, the villagers who gathered around him took several steps back when they heard that he might be infected with fowl plague, and dared not get any closer.
Chu Yue glanced at Old Man Li, who was still in a daze, and the woman who was kneeling on the ground begging, and finally sighed at their stupidity.
She turned around and said to Song Hongmei, "Sister Song, please watch here. Don't let anyone else in except me to avoid infection."
This is to prevent infection and to prevent Old Man Li from being held accountable for stealing the chicken.
"Don't worry, I'm here, no one else can get in." Song Hongmei reminded worriedly, "Ayue, be careful to protect yourself."
"I know."
Chu Yue took out her protective suit and put it on under everyone's gaze. She also put on gloves and a mask before walking into Old Man Li's house.
This set of procedures is enough to scare away a lot of people.
inside the house.
Chu Yue asked Old Man Li, "Where's the chicken soup? Did anyone eat it?"
"The chicken soup is on the table...it's all on the table." Old Man Li's face was pale, and he looked ten years older. "My wife and I didn't eat any. Only the girl ate it. It was specially for her to nourish her body..."
It was this good intention that ruined everything.
This is the most frustrating thing.
Chu Yue looked carefully at the chicken soup on the table. It was a full bowl with both chicken legs and the chicken meat was whole.
The woman said quickly, "The girl has a poor appetite and didn't eat much at noon. The old man and I were reluctant to eat... She only ate two bites of chicken and drank only one bowl of chicken soup. Doctor Chu, is everything okay? Is my girl okay?"
"It's okay, we'll know after we check it out."
Chu Yue examined the little girl again. The infection could not be detected in the early stage and she had to be observed for a week.
besides.
Chu Yue also checked the kitchen and collected all the chicken feathers, chicken intestines and other things, including the bowl of chicken soup, which all needed to be destroyed.
In addition, Old Man Li and the other two cannot go out for the next seven days and must stay at home.
The kitchen knives, cutting boards, and used dishes and chopsticks in their homes all need to be disinfected.
Chu Yue reminded in a deep voice, "Whether the girl will get sick or not is not decided by me or God. It depends on whether you have a sense of prevention. Only by being careful and cautious can you be safe."
"Doctor Chu, we know we were wrong, we know we were wrong! We'll do whatever you tell us to do!"
Old man Li nodded heavily with a feeling of regret.
Before Chu Yue left, she left some pills for the family and fed the little girl a sip of water. It was spiritual spring water taken from the space, hoping to keep her safe and suffer less.
outside the house.
Chu Yue saw a young couple talking to Song Hongmei. As soon as Chu Yue came out, they immediately surrounded her.
Song Hongmei introduced, "These are Old Man Li's son and daughter-in-law, the child's parents."
"Doctor Chu, it was my father who was wrong! It was my father who was wrong! We can compensate you, even with money! We can even compensate you with a chicken! Please, save our girl, please." The young couple's eyes were red, they had already wiped away their tears, and they couldn't stop regretting it.
"The little girl isn't sick right now. She'll be observed for seven days. As long as she doesn't get sick within seven days, she's not infected."
Upon hearing Chu Yue say this, the young couple immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Chu Yue continued to remind them, "During these seven days, you should live somewhere else. Don't see each other or have any contact. This is for your own good, and for the good of the girl."
The young couple had never heard of such a request and were in hesitation.
Song Hongmei said at the right time, "You don't even listen to the doctor's words. Do you still want to be confused?"
"No, no, we will definitely listen and do as you say!" The young couple then made repeated assurances.
Chu Yue and Song Hongmei looked at each other, and the two of them had a tacit understanding in silent coordination.
…
While the village was in gloom because of the chicken plague, there was a joyful atmosphere in the courtyard on the other side.
"Xiu Li, you're back~"
"Oh my! Is this Xiu Li? I almost didn't recognize you. That's your new perm. It looks so nice. It must be the most popular in the capital."
"Our Xiu Li made it, so it must be the most fashionable. Don't you see who Xiu Li is!...Wow...is this a woolen skirt? I've only seen woolen coats made of it, but never a dress. How expensive is this?"
Seven or eight sisters-in-law gathered together, and in the middle was a beautiful woman with curly hair, wearing a lambskin dress and carrying a fashionable lambskin bag.
The woman's name is Fang Xiuli. Her husband is Tan Siqi, the deputy head of the neighboring regiment. They live in the same compound with everyone else.
Fang Xiuli herself has a more special identity. She is He Meijiao's childhood friend. The two grew up in the same compound in the capital. It goes without saying that Fang Xiuli's family background is not simple. Both of her parents are soldiers in the capital.
