In order to find out who the strange middle-aged man was, Mu Feng left here temporarily.
That night, it rained heavily and there were thunder and lightning.
After dinner, Tonghua went back to her room to go to bed, but suddenly she remembered that she had hung the clothes in the yard and had not taken them in yet, so she quickly got up and prepared to take the clothes back.
It's only seven o'clock in the afternoon, but it's already dark outside.
Holding an umbrella, she walked into the yard against the wind. Although her clothes were completely soaked by the heavy rain, she still had to put away the things that needed to be put away.
Just as she reached out to take the clothes hanging on the rope, she heard the sound of something heavy falling next door.
She walked towards the wall on the right, and across the wall, she carefully shouted towards Grandma Zhang's yard, "Grandma Zhang, is that you?"
After waiting for a while, there was no response from the other end.
Tonghua found a corner in the house and used it as a temporary place to hang clothes. After wrung out all the clothes, she hung them up.
She looked at the bungalow next door. It was pitch black there, and it seemed that no lights were on. Tonghua thought about it and still felt a little worried, so she decided to go to Grandma Zhang's yard to take a look.
She took out the umbrella from the corner, opened it, and walked out against the wind.
At this time, the sky outside was pitch black, the wind was blowing wildly, and the whistling sound sounded like someone crying.
Tonghua finally braved the strong wind and reached the door of Grandma Zhang's courtyard. She was about to knock on the door, but unexpectedly, the door opened with a slight push. It turned out that Grandma Zhang had not locked the door.
As she walked in, she called out, "Grandma Zhang, are you home?"
At this moment, the usually warm courtyard seemed to have turned into a man-eating black hole. It was pitch dark everywhere, which was creepy to look at.
Tonghua suppressed the tension in her heart and walked forward slowly. Suddenly, something cold grabbed her ankle.
She looked down and saw it was a hand!
Tonghua was so frightened that she almost screamed.
"Ouch......."
A groaning sound came from Tonghua's feet. It turned out to be Grandma Zhang!
"Grandma Zhang, are you okay?"
Tonghua immediately squatted down and wanted to help Grandma Zhang up, but it was pitch black and she couldn't see clearly. In addition, the wind was very strong and the rain was very heavy. Tonghua's thin body was almost blown away by the strong wind.
In a hurry, Tonghua threw the umbrella aside and checked Grandma Zhang's whole body. Because she didn't know where she was injured, Tonghua didn't dare to touch Grandma Zhang hard.
She could only lift up Grandma Zhang's upper body and drag her little by little to the dry place under the eaves.
At this time, Tonghua's whole body was soaked by the rain, but she had no time to pay attention to her condition. She turned on the light in the house and saw that Grandma Zhang's leg seemed to be injured.
Grandma Zhang looked weak, her eyes half closed, and she kept moaning in pain...
Seeing this situation, Tonghua became extremely anxious. She murmured to herself, "We must send Grandma Zhang to the hospital!"
But now it was dark and the road was slippery, and it was impossible for her to take Grandma Zhang there by herself.
There is no other way but to ask someone else for help!
Tonghua carefully helped Grandma Zhang into the house, put a soft cushion under her, and then found a blanket from the house and carefully draped it over Grandma Zhang.
She said to Grandma Zhang, "Grandma Zhang, please stay here for a while. I'll find someone to take you to the hospital right away!"
After saying that, she opened her umbrella and braved the heavy rain to look for people in the nearby village, hoping that they could drive Grandma Zhang to the hospital.
The people in the village were also very enthusiastic. When they heard that Grandma Zhang had fallen and was injured, they immediately followed Tonghua and drove Grandma Zhang to the hospital without saying a word.
Grandma Zhang was waiting for the doctor's treatment in the ward, and Tonghua was waiting for Grandma Zhang outside the hospital. After the villagers saw Grandma Zhang being sent in for treatment, they started making phone calls.
Judging from the content of their conversation, it seemed that they were calling one of Grandma Zhang's relatives and asking him to come over quickly.
After all this trouble, Tonghua gradually began to feel tired. She sat on a bench outside the ward and gradually fell asleep...
I don’t know how long it took, but there was a noise in Tonghua’s ears, as if someone was saying something anxiously in her ear.
Tonghua slowly opened her eyes and saw a young man wearing black-framed glasses walking towards her quickly.
As soon as he reached the side of Tonghua, the young man glanced at the ward number with an anxious look on his face: "Is this the one?!"
After seeing the fairy tale, the young man said to the fairy tale, "Excuse me, were you the one who took my grandma to the hospital? How is her condition now?"
"Excuse me, who are you?"
"I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Zhang Hongmei's grandson, Zhou Rongsheng. I just got a call from Brother Zhang in the village saying that my grandmother fell and injured herself at home, and asked me to come over quickly..."
"Oh, it's indeed Grandma Zhang in there. The doctor is still treating her wounds. It shouldn't take long for her to heal."
As he was speaking, the door of the ward opened and the doctor walked out.
Zhou Rongsheng hurried forward and asked if his grandmother's injuries were serious, while Tonghua waited silently by the side.
After the doctor finished explaining Grandma Zhang's condition, Tonghua followed Zhou Rongsheng into Grandma Zhang's ward.
At this time, Grandma Zhang has regained consciousness after being cared for and treated by doctors.
Seeing her grandson, whom she hadn't seen for several months, suddenly standing in front of her, Grandma Zhang was stunned for a moment: "Rongsheng, you're here!"
Zhou Rongsheng quickly walked to Grandma Zhang's side, held her hand, and said, "Grandma, how are you feeling? Are you feeling better? Does the wound still hurt..."
This series of expressions of concern made Grandma Zhang feel warm in her heart. She said kindly, "Grandma, I'm fine. Don't worry! I accidentally fell this time because it was too dark in the yard. I didn't see the road clearly, so I missed a step."
"How can I not worry? I've told you many times to go to the city with me, but you don't go. How can I be at ease if you stay alone in your hometown..."
It can be seen that Zhou Rongsheng really cares about Grandma Zhang. In order not to disturb them reminiscing about the past, Tonghua plans to leave here quietly.
But Grandma Zhang called her.
"Tong girl, don't leave yet, Rongsheng, you have to thank Tong girl this time. If she hadn't seen me in time and found a way to send me to the hospital, I don't know how long my old bones would have suffered there..."
