Chapter 282 Injected with a lot of drugs
"Pei Jiuyan!"
Upon seeing the man standing smiling outside the door, Qin Suisui slammed down her teacup and ran out as fast as she could.
Pei Jiuyan dropped his luggage bag and caught her with open arms.
"Pei Jiuyan, have you been working very hard these past two days? Are you hurt? I was so worried!" Qin Suisui threw herself into Pei Jiuyan's arms, not even realizing that her tone of voice had taken on a slightly coquettish quality.
Pei Jiuyan smiled, but his tone was full of teasing: "Really? You seem to be enjoying yourself quite a bit."
Qin Suisui suddenly remembered that she had just been eating pancakes and drinking tea, and a blush immediately appeared on her face, but she still tried to explain, "I just came back from the mountain and I was hungry!"
Pei Jiuyan chuckled softly, laughing for a while before stroking her soft hair and speaking gently, "I just hope you're like this. No matter what, you should eat well, sleep well, and rest well, and not worry about me."
Qin Suisui was still a little embarrassed, so she led him into the courtyard and handed him the cup of tea she had just brewed: "Try it, this Pu'er tea from the brigade is really good."
Pei Jiuyan had been traveling all the way and was indeed thirsty, so he took a large cup of tea from Qin Suisui's hand and gulped it down.
Qin Suisui then noticed that he was alone, and she hurriedly asked, "Where is Comrade Zhou Jianguo? Why didn't he come with us?"
Speaking of this, Pei Jiuyan's expression became more serious: "Niu Niu has been found. There are many other children like Niu Niu in that den. Jianguo assisted the local police in transporting the traffickers to the provincial capital. He will meet up with us in the provincial capital."
"And Hu Jue, who went with the police to a big hospital in the provincial capital with Niu Niu, will meet us there and we'll go back to Qiongtan Island together."
Because of Niu Niu's situation, they naturally couldn't stay here to play. Early the next morning, Ji Feng borrowed Old Man Ji's oxcart and sent Qin Suisui and the others to Chabei County.
Before leaving, Ji Mei was very reluctant to part with Qin Suisui. In her eyes, Qin Suisui was truly a "lucky star" for their family, no, for their entire brigade. Her husband had met Qin Suisui at the Canton Fair, which led to their brigade's tea being exported. A few days ago, Qin Suisui came, and her husband was released the next morning. Moreover, it brought in Liang Qi, a "big customer," providing their brigade's tea with a new sales channel.
So, in addition to the tea leaves that Qin Suisui and Jia Zhenzhen picked and fried themselves, as well as the mushrooms from the mountain, which they each took away, Ji Mei also prepared her own treasured Pu'er tea cakes, Dianhong tea, mountain green tea, oolong tea, etc., as well as the chicken tofu, three-pointed horn cakes, and various tea-infused cakes that Qin Suisui and the others had been enjoying here for the past two days. She also gave Qin Suisui a piece of her own cured ham.
Qin Suisui quickly refused. She already had three hams stored in her space, all given to her by the villagers of Hongshan Brigade. Each ham weighed nearly 20 pounds. If Jia Zhenzhen hadn't been strong and had no concept of weight, she really wouldn't know how to explain to her why her luggage bag was so light.
Ji Mei, however, refused to give an answer: "Our ham is smoked with tea leaves, so it tastes different from ham from other places!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Suisui shamefully became tempted again and had no choice but to accept these gifts.
Fortunately, she wasn't someone who only took money and never gave it back. She had paid enough for food these past two days and even promised to help with translation once the new tea varieties from their tea garden were ready.
After finally saying goodbye to Ji Mei, Qin Suisui and the others carried their bags and boarded an oxcart to head to the county.
Jia Zhenzhen's face was beaming: "Sui Sui, following you means you'll have meat to eat and tea to drink!" She didn't like tea before, but after drinking the tea Qin Sui Sui gave her while she was bored on the train, she understood why the tea here could be exported; the taste was indeed exceptionally good.
It just so happens that her husband loves tea, so bringing these things back would be a good way to please him. Besides, she feels she has grown a lot from all the experiences she has had on this trip, and now she can finally be someone who drinks tea and chats about life with her husband!
Although Qin Suisui had a lot of things, fortunately, Pei Jiuyan and Liang Qi were there to carry her bags, so there wasn't much of a problem.
The group traveled from Chabei County to Pucha City by car, then transferred in Pucha City and went directly to Kunming City.
Back then, there was no train service between Kunming and Pucha, so they had to travel by car along winding mountain roads. Fortunately, they had prepared various anti-motion sickness teas in advance, and Ji Mei had picked a large bag of wild oranges for them early in the morning. Qin Suisui would fall asleep as soon as she got in the car, and after waking up, she would drink some water, eat some oranges, and then go back to sleep. After these few ordeals, she was now able to fall asleep as soon as she got in the car, thus avoiding much suffering.
The car didn't arrive in Kunming until the afternoon of the next day. Big Liu with the bushy beard was already waiting for them at the bus station entrance.
After not seeing each other for half a month, Qin Suisui felt quite warm towards Da Liu's thick beard.
After exchanging greetings, Da Liu led them directly to their guesthouse. After resting briefly, without even finishing their meal, Da Liu led them straight to the hospital in Kunming to visit Hu Jue and Niu Niu.
All the way there, Da Liu was filled with indignation: "Those damned human traffickers! Those bastards who deserve to die young! They tormented other people's children like that! They deserve to die!"
When they arrived at the hospital, they saw Hu Jue sitting by Niu Niu's bedside. Niu Niu still had an IV drip in her hand, and her breathing was even. She had already fallen asleep under the influence of the medication.
The ten-year-old girl was incredibly thin, her face and body covered in scars, and she had lost clumps of hair, revealing her battered scalp. Qin Suisui's heart skipped a beat at the sight. Her gaze followed Niu Niu's body downwards, but Niu Niu was covered by a blanket and couldn't see anything.
Not seeing Niu Niu's injured leg actually made Qin Suisui feel slightly relieved. Niu Niu's injuries were already heartbreaking, and she couldn't bear to look at her leg.
Hu Jue looked much thinner and more haggard than a week ago. When he saw Qin Suisui and the others arrive, he nodded slightly and explained, "Those people injected a lot of drugs into Niu Niu. She's been getting injections for the past few days, hoping to alleviate the symptoms."
At this point, he suddenly looked at Qin Suisui and said, "Suisui, you know how to cure illnesses, you can cure these things, right? Please help Niu Niu take a look!" As he spoke, he suddenly knelt down in front of Qin Suisui.
His knee slammed heavily on the ground with a dull thud, but he seemed oblivious to the pain and continued, "Sui Sui, I heard you've treated many people on the island, and you're especially good at detoxification. Can you help Niu Niu?"
