"Ouch, hiss, it hurts! Old man." Zhao Lan's thigh was suddenly grabbed by someone, her face twisted. She was so angry that she reached out and hit the other person's back of the hand.
"Didn't you ask me to pull it? Why are you blaming me now?" Qi Guohui covered the back of his hand that was hurt and said depressedly in a low voice.
Seeing them like this, Qi Xinlan and the other two couldn't help but laugh secretly.
Next, the whole family helped to process the pig offal and chicken intestines, and the process was very busy.
Suddenly, a familiar male voice came from outside the door.
"Excuse me, is this the Qi family?"
"Brother Li, you are here. Please come in and sit down." Qi Xinlan looked up and saw that it was Li Meng, and greeted him warmly.
"I won't go in, sister-in-law. I have some clues about the thing you asked me to investigate." Li Meng said with a serious expression.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this Xiao Feng?" Qi Xinlan asked pretending to be confused.
"Sister-in-law, this man has some problems with his character. Tell your friends to stay away from him. He has no relationship with the factory director at all, but..." Li Meng said with an expression that was a little difficult to speak.
"What is it?" Qi Xinlan was really confused this time.
"That's right, he seems to have some...some improper relationship with the factory director's wife." Li Meng's face turned slightly red and he stammered.
Qi Xinlan saw Li Meng's expression. What was there to not understand? This Xiao Feng was probably using his appearance to cheat people out of their money again. In his previous life, he had deceived not only young girls but also married women. As long as they had a little money, he would not let them go.
Qi Xinlan thought again of the middle-aged man who bought braised pork from her stall yesterday. She heard that he was a factory director. She wondered if he was the director of a textile factory. If so, she could give him a little reminder. Thinking of this, Qi Xinlan's mouth curled up.
"I will tell my friend. Thank you this time. If it weren't for Brother Li, my friend would have been cheated badly. Why not stay at our house and have a simple meal."
"Sister-in-law, no need, no need. This is just a piece of cake. I have something else to do and I have to hurry back." Li Meng waved his hand.
"Okay, wait for me." Without waiting for Li Meng's reply, he turned and ran to the kitchen. When he came out, he packed some braised meat in a bag and said, "I braised this myself. Take it back and try it."
"Okay, thank you sister-in-law." Li Meng originally wanted to refuse, but the smell was too delicious, so he shamelessly accepted it.
After separating from Li Meng, Qi Xinlan turned and went into the kitchen to continue working.
"Lan Zi, who is outside the door?" Qi Xinwei was washing pig intestines.
"Oh, he's Minghao's friend. I asked him to help me check something before, and he came to tell me today. By the way, brother, you will sell braised meat with us tomorrow. We are afraid that we will be too busy because we have to deliver the goods." Qi Xinlan lowered his head slightly and stirred the braising liquid.
"Okay, no problem. I guarantee to complete the task." Qi Xinwei said with a grin.
The next morning, Qi Xinlan, Qi Xinwei and Li Tao set off in an ox cart.
Qi Xinlan first asked Qi Xinwei to deliver the order to the people who had placed the order. The town was not big, so if he didn't know the way, he could ask people.
After Qi Xinwei left, Qi Xinlan and Li Tao stayed to sell braised meat. Since they had gained some fame yesterday, there was a constant stream of people buying from them. Qi Xinwei came back from delivering the goods and came to help. Qi Xinwei was responsible for cutting the meat, Li Tao was responsible for bagging, and Qi Xinlan was responsible for counting and collecting money.
"Help, who can save my grandson? Ruirui, Ruirui, what's wrong with you..." Suddenly a sharp cry for help came from the opposite side.
I saw a woman with slightly gray hair holding a little boy of five or six years old. The little boy's face was red, sweating profusely, coughing constantly, and breathing very rapidly. He was in extreme discomfort, obviously something was stuck in his throat.
"Hurry up and send him to the hospital. This kind of throat blockage will kill him in a few minutes."
"The hospital is half an hour away from here, and even if we go there, there won't be anyone there."
"There's a Chinese medicine shop nearby. Let's send it there first."
"There's no use sending it to a Chinese medicine shop. The last time, that child was also sent to a Chinese medicine shop for treatment, but he still died."
The onlookers offered suggestions, but no one dared to go up. If the child died, they were afraid that the child's family would blame them.
Seeing this, Qi Xinlan squeezed into the crowd, picked up the child and placed him on her lap. She used her left hand to stabilize his head and neck, and then used her right hand to pat the center of his shoulder blades. The child spit out a candy with a "wow!" sound, and then his face gradually returned to normal, and his breathing slowly became smoother...
"It's coming out. It's coming out."
"What's wrong with this lesbian? She vomited after a few slaps."
"How amazing! If the kid from last time had also met this lesbian, he wouldn't have... Oh, what a pity."
"It's a pity. I can only say that I'm out of luck."
The crowd was amazed to see that Qi Xinlan just patted the child on the back a few times and the child spit out the candy.
The Heimlich maneuver was not yet popular at that time, so it was not surprising that everyone found it novel, and she did not care.
"Thank you, thank you, little girl. I don't know what I would do without you." The old woman said with tears in her eyes and a grateful look on her face.
"It's okay, grandma. Be careful when you give hard food to children in the future, otherwise it's easy for something to get hurt." Qi Xinlan advised.
"Okay, okay, okay, I will never give it to him again." The old woman kept making promises with a look of fear on her face.
"Grandma, I want to drink water." After the little boy returned to normal, he felt a little dry in the mouth and said weakly.
