If you are favored by others, you have a bright future (Cantonese)
It was not yet noon, and Su Miao was packing pork offal and braised food while singing.
A big client came yesterday. His daughter is getting engaged today, so six tables are needed for the banquet, each of which will require a pound of pork offal and a pound of braised food.
It’s not far away, and you can get there in 20 minutes by tricycle. I paid a deposit of 10 yuan, and the final payment will be made after the goods are packed and delivered.
Su Yuanzheng was still busy cooking the dishes for lunch, so Su Yu took Su Miao to deliver the goods.
They were originally worried that it would be difficult to find the house in the residential area, so they left a little earlier. However, once they entered the alley, the festive atmosphere allowed them to find the host's house quickly.
Festive colorful silks were hung at the door, and relatives were sitting together in the yard in groups of three or four, chatting and eating melon seeds.
Su Miao glanced at the gate and called out, "Hello, is Uncle Li here?"
Old Li, who came to order prepared food yesterday, came out of the house with a happy face: "Here I come! Hey, little kid, is it you who's delivering the goods?"
"Uncle Li, congratulations! The pork offal and braised food you ordered are all here. Would you like us to take them to the kitchen for you?"
"Don't bother, just put it on this table, we'll arrange it ourselves later." Old Li patted an empty table in the yard.
Su Miao and Su Yu put the food on the table, several high piles, which instantly attracted the attention of the guests and they gathered around.
"Wow! Is this a cooked dish? I can smell the fragrance even before I open it!"
Old Li cheerfully replied, "This is the Laoyou fried pork offal and braised food that's really popular in our area lately. It's from Su Ji Food Shop. I'm in a good mood today, so I thought I'd order some for everyone to try!"
"Oh my! That's amazing! It's even packed in a box. I've seen this kind of box on the train. It's a high-end dish, Lao Li."
"Old Li, you're rich now! Your whole family has jobs, and now your daughter is marrying a small boss. Your life will be even better in the future!"
Who doesn't like to hear flattery? Old Li was instantly so happy that he couldn't stop grinning. Pointing at Su Miao and Su Yu, he said, "Try it later. It's really delicious. Make sure it's made by them! Don't buy the wrong pirated ones."
Su Miao also took the opportunity to advertise: "Dear uncles and aunts, my shop is in the residential area opposite the No. 1 Middle School. You can see my sign if you keep walking along the intersection. We mainly sell self-service porridge, Laoyou fried pork offal, and braised food. You can eat in or take out. Everyone is welcome to come."
"Look at how eloquent this girl is. Great! If the food is good later, we'll definitely go!"
After delivering the goods, they both have to rush back because the lunch army is about to arrive!
On the way back, I had to cross a small river. I don’t know if it can be called a small river. Most of the time, the water was only up to an adult’s chest. But it rained heavily in the past two days and the water level rose a lot. Fortunately, the river was raised with bricks and stones on both sides, and the water has not overflowed yet.
There is a bridge over the river connecting the roads on both sides. The bricks and stones in front of the bridge have been damaged by cars, and there will be a "click" sound every time a car goes up.
This time, when I went up the bridge, I not only felt a "click", but also heard cries for help from under the bridge.
"Help! Help! Wuuuuuuuu! My brother fell down!!"
Hearing the cry for help, Su Yu quickly pulled the car over and ran to the bridge with Su Miao to look down.
In the middle of the river, there was a child who looked about the same age as Su Miao, floating up and down and drinking water. Normally, a drowning person cannot call for help, but fortunately, his sister was beside him, shouting anxiously.
Suddenly, a figure jumped into the water with a "splash" and swam towards the boy. He reached his side in a few seconds and lifted the boy, who had been drowned, out of the water.
Su Miao, who was watching from the bridge, breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately! He's saved!"
Turning around, Su Yu frowned tightly, "No! He's going to be dragged away!"
Looking again, the boy who was lifted out of the water clung to the woman who saved him as if he was grabbing the last straw. Before he realized it, he had already strangled the woman's neck with his hands.
Although the boy is young, he always bursts out with infinite strength when he is on the verge of death.
"Let go!" The woman tried hard to pry the boy's hands open, but because he was too nervous and used all his strength with his arms, she couldn't pry them open at all. The two of them gradually sank into the water again, and the woman's face began to turn pale due to lack of oxygen.
At the critical moment, Su Yu did not hesitate, jumped into the water, and swam towards the two people quickly. He went around behind the boy and forcefully pried open his arms that were strangling the woman.
The woman, freed from her restraints, also floated up, breathing in the fresh air, and together with Su Yu, pulled the boy ashore.
After getting ashore, they found that the boy had fainted from choking on water. The woman said anxiously: "We need to slap the water out of his stomach!"
Su Yu sat down on a stone pier by the river, placed the boy's abdomen on his knees, let his head hang naturally, and then pressed on his abdomen and back.
Although the boy spit out some water, his limbs were limp and he showed no signs of waking up. Su Yu checked and found that the boy seemed to have stopped breathing.
The boy's sister cried out, "Help, help! My brother is going to die!!!"
Su Miao didn't care about the car anymore and hurriedly ran down the bridge. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation was not yet popular. They knew how to control water, but they didn't know how to provide first aid when a drowning person had no breathing or heartbeat.
"Brother Yu! Put him down! Perform CPR!"
"What? What's CPR?"
Su Miao really wanted to do it right away, but she was not strong enough now, and the effect would be reduced if she did not use enough force.
So she taught Su Yu and the woman who saved the life on the spot how to perform chest compressions first, followed by artificial respiration, with a compression-to-respiration ratio of 30:2.
After two minutes of effort, the boy regained some consciousness, then began to cough frantically, and his face gradually became less pale. Su Miao breathed a sigh of relief again, because the ability to cough proved that he was breathing.
At this time, a couple came running along the shore, shouting: "Chaochao! What happened to my Chaochao?"
The boy's sister came over and cried, "Chaochao fell into the river, and brother and sister rescued him!"
Her mother pushed her hard, causing her to stagger. She cursed, "You bastard! I told you to watch your brother, but you saw him fall into the river. If anything happens to your brother, I'll show you how I'll deal with you when I get home!"
"Stop talking, send Chaochao to the hospital quickly, my poor child!"
The couple carried the boy on their backs and hurried to a nearby hospital. From the time they arrived at the scene and carried the boy away, they didn't even glance at Su Miao and the others, let alone say thank you.
It was the boy's sister who bowed deeply to them and then ran to catch up with her parents.
