Chapter 597 Self-inflicted Misfortune (3)
The person who came was Xu Jianlin.
"She got electrocuted. Wasn't there a power outage? How did she get electrocuted?" Ruan Lin heard the noise in the yard and came out to ask.
Xu Jianlin shook his head: "It wasn't a power outage. It was her...she didn't pay attention to the electricity...she got electrocuted."
Xu Jianlin was vague, and the real reason was a bit hard to explain.
After the Ruan family bought a color TV, everyone in the village knew about it the next day. Almost everyone, young and old, came to see it, except their family. Because the previous quarrel with the Ruan family was too tense, he was too embarrassed to come anyway.
Liu Mei wanted to come, but she was extremely afraid of Ruan Lin, so she usually just walked around the door for a few times and never dared to come in.
But these two days, Xu Cheng was clamoring to watch TV at home, saying that he was kicked out by the Ruan family, crying and making a fuss. Liu Mei was already full of hatred and jealousy, and after being made so much noise by Xu Cheng, her brain short-circuited.
People in this village are generally uneducated. Before the wires were pulled, Wu Guoqing organized several meetings for everyone to talk about electrical safety. One of the rules was that you cannot hang things on the wires, especially wet things, which can easily cause short circuits and accidents.
Liu Mei was absent-minded during the two meetings and didn't listen carefully. She only knew that hanging things on the wires might cause a power outage. So, she had an idea. She walked around the door of Ruan's house and saw so many people watching TV inside, laughing and talking non-stop. But Xu Cheng was not allowed to go in. She couldn't see him either. She was so angry that she lost her rationality. She went back and wet a piece of clothing and hung it on the wires.
There was no problem at first. When she saw that there was no power outage, she became even angrier. She twisted the wires with the clothes she was trying on, which caused sparks. Not only did the whole village's wires short-circuit, but she also got electrocuted.
If he hadn't reacted quickly and hit her with a stick, she would have met King Yan directly.
But even if he is not dead, his condition is very serious now. He is lying at home foaming at the mouth, and both his hands are burnt. He is probably completely useless.
Ruan Lin really hates Liu Mei, but it is a matter of life and death, so he can't postpone it. He can only let Ruan Jianguo drive the truck to send Liu Mei.
The villagers who were walking to the village after watching TV happened to encounter this. They helped to carry the person over.
Ruan Jianguo took a look and frowned. Even though he was unwilling, he had to drive to the hospital.
Ruan Jiaojiao was small and short, and others might not be able to see Liu Mei's appearance even if they squeezed to see her, but she saw it through the gap. She saw the two hands raised by Liu Mei, which were as black as dead wood, and she trembled with fear.
"Don't look." A pair of small hands covered her eyes, but it was too late, and she still saw it.
The Ruan family heard Xu Xu's voice and then reacted. Seeing Ruan Jiaojiao's pale face, they all blamed themselves.
Shu Jie immediately strode forward and hugged her in his arms, and patted her back with heartache.
Ruan Jiaojiao didn't say anything, just trembled in her arms, but what she thought of in her mind was the grave she saw at that time, Shu Jie's grave.
According to the information she had learned, Shu Jie was electrocuted to death while trying to save the "Ruan Jiaojiao" who occupied her body.
Like Liu Mei just now, she was black.
"Mom, you were also electrocuted to death, right?" Ruan Jiaojiao asked softly in Shu Jie's ear.
Shu Jie's body froze when she heard that.
