Seeing that Su Xinyi's hands were a little warm, Ye Beiping anxiously touched her forehead: "Do you have a fever?"
This really worried him.
Su Xinyi is currently pregnant and has a fever, so she can't even take any medicine.
Ye Beiping could only find a thin quilt, then went to the yard to fetch a bucket of cold water and kept applying it to Su Xinyi as a cold compress.
Tao Qiuyan, who was eating, watched Ye Beiping go in and out, constantly fetching and pouring water, her mind filled with doubts.
After finishing her meal, she couldn't help but ask, "Beiping, what happened to her?"
"She has a fever," Ye Beiping said as he changed the towel and applied a cold compress to Su Xinyi.
"You have a fever, go to the hospital." Tao Qiuyan hadn't yet realized the seriousness of the situation.
Ye Beiping said anxiously and angrily, "She's pregnant, she can't take any medicine at all."
"Pregnant?" Tao Qiuyan frowned, then widened her eyes in realization and said, "You mean she... she's pregnant out of wedlock?"
Such a thing is impossible in her rigid mindset.
Getting pregnant before marriage is like having your spine pierced by gossip.
How could someone who endures all sorts of humiliation from her in-laws and is afraid of being gossiped about, possibly allow premarital pregnancy?
"What should we do? Leaving her at home isn't a solution; what if..."
Seeing Tao Qiuyan trying to get rid of Su Xinyi, Ye Beiping looked up angrily and said, "Mom, if you try to get rid of Xinyi at this time, aren't you trying to kill her?"
"What?"
Tao Qiuyan realized her son had misunderstood and quickly explained, "When did I say I wanted to send her away? I meant whether or not to take her to the hospital. If she's sick, she should be taken to the hospital, right?"
She said, looking aggrieved, "Am I the kind of heartless person? I don't know the gravity of the situation. This is one... no, two lives!"
He's your own grandson.
Ye Beiping ultimately didn't say it aloud, and pursed his lips, saying, "Sending him to the hospital won't help; we can only use physical methods to lower his temperature, like cold compresses."
He kept talking and his hands never stopped.
However, there were still some areas that Ye Beiping couldn't wipe. He glanced at his mother and handed her the towel, saying, "Mom, there are some areas I can't wipe, you do it."
"oh."
Tao Qiuyan had no time to say anything else; saving lives was the priority. She took the towel and began to wipe Su Xinyi.
Seeing this, Ye Beiping walked out of the room.
Just then, a group of people gathered at the entrance of the courtyard. Leading them was Zhu Changsheng, the former platoon leader of the militia platoon. Now that the brigade was short of people, he was put in place of Hou Yongping as the company commander of the militia company.
The militiamen following behind Zhu Changsheng were also carrying guns.
Ye Beiping stepped out of the house, frowning, and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Beiping." Zhu Changsheng smiled. Having heard some rumors about Ye Beiping, he knew he couldn't afford to offend him now, so he lowered his tone and said, "Su Xinyi is an educated youth from a rural settlement. She is now pregnant out of wedlock. The head of the rural settlement came to report to us, and we were just doing our routine by taking her back to the commune."
Upon hearing this, Ye Beiping snorted coldly: "I don't care about your routine work, but now that someone is sick, does your routine work mean you don't care about human life?"
"This..." Zhu Changsheng dared not say such a thing.
Suddenly, a few people walked up from behind; they were educated youth from the educated youth settlement.
At this moment, Luo Yonghao said, "Ye Beiping, Xinyi is a sent-down youth from our settlement. It's not proper for you to bring her home, is it?"
“Yes,” some of the educated youth echoed.
Zhu Changsheng stood aside, watching the show with a cold smile. Just because he couldn't afford to offend them didn't mean these educated youths were afraid.
Unexpectedly, Ye Beiping didn't take these rules seriously at all: "It's true that she is an educated youth from your educated youth settlement, but she is sick now. Are you trying to kill her by locking her up in that dilapidated warehouse if she goes back with you?"
“This…” Luo Yonghao didn’t want anyone to die.
It was his order to lock her in the warehouse; he had no idea that Su Xinyi would fall ill so soon.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Qiu Mingyue, who was standing at the back, stepped forward anxiously and said, "Ye Beiping, we just want Su Xinyi to reveal who her lover is. Why are you protecting her like this? Are you the lover? Is the bastard in her belly yours?"
If Qiu Mingyue can't take Su Xinyi away today, she won't be able to swallow this anger no matter what, regardless of whether Su Xinyi lives or dies.
Qiu Mingyue said these words hoping that Ye Beiping would back down.
But when Ye Beiping heard Qiu Mingyue say the word "bastard child," his face instantly darkened: "Qiu Mingyue, you are Su Xinyi's classmate, yet you seem to be hoping something bad will happen to her. Is this how you educated youth view a human life?"
"If you're going to say I'm the adulterer, then fine, I'll answer you now. Su Xinyi is my woman, and the child in her belly is mine. Anyone who wants to take her away will have to step over my body first, otherwise, shut up."
Seeing Ye Beiping's domineering side, the male educated youth at the settlement were all somewhat impressed.
You can't just admit to something like that.
If this is actually implemented, Ye Beiping could spend the rest of his life in jail.
At the very least, one charge of rape is required.
Qiu Mingyue stared at Ye Beiping for a long time and realized that if Ye Beiping wasn't dealt with, Su Xinyi couldn't be touched at all. So she turned to Zhu Changsheng and said, "Company Commander Zhu, did you hear that? Why aren't you arresting her? Are you waiting for our educated youth settlement to call the police?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Zhu Changsheng was also a little confused, but he realized that he was there to arrest people. Since Ye Beiping had admitted it, he had to fulfill his duty: "Take Ye Beiping away from me."
This matter could be a big deal or a small deal. Even if Ye Beiping is someone he can't afford to offend, he can't be above the law.
