Chapter 50 An Enemy Arrives
Ruan Fu pedaled her bicycle and soon reached the river.
The river section belongs to the collective, but the fish in it have no owner. Whoever can catch them owns them. As long as you don't sell them for money, it is completely fine to catch a few occasionally to satisfy your craving.
Ruan Fu didn't feel any psychological pressure at all about catching fish. Tiantian was still lying in the hospital bed, and the most important thing was to get enough nutrition.
The river was not wide, and reeds grew in all directions on the bank. Ruan Fu looked at the broad leaves and thought that when Tiantian got better, she could come over and pick some to make rice dumplings for her.
Walking further, the water flows smoothly forward. Through the clear water, you can see many small fish swimming in it.
Ruan Fu was very surprised. For her now, this was enough.
She picked up a dry branch by the river and blocked the water flow a little, then sprinkled some wine yeast. This thing had a strong fragrance, and the small fish all gathered around it.
Then he took the empty basket filled with mulberry leaves in his hand and quickly scooped it towards where there were many fish. When he lifted it up again, there were a few lively little fish in the basket.
Ruan Fu was greatly encouraged and immediately picked up another basket and started working in the same way.
In less than half an hour, dozens of small fish were caught.
She felt it was about time, so she simply used scissors to remove the scales and gut the fish by the river and cleaned it up.
Just as I was about to get up, I suddenly saw a cloud of mud rising from the bottom of the water.
What’s going on? Is there something good down there?
The river water these days is not polluted and the water quality is clear. You may even find treasures there!
Ruan Fu looked carefully and found a turtle hiding under the water, almost blending in with the mud. If you didn't look carefully, you would never find it.
It’s really a treasure, old turtle soup is the most nutritious!
She was overjoyed and scooped up the mud in a flash. The old turtle came out of the water before it could react and started struggling in the basket, splashing mud all over her. However, Ruan Fu didn't care at all.
That’s great, with it, you can definitely get the sweet nutrition.
Clean the old turtle, cut it into pieces, and wrap it with clean leaves.
She was immersed in joy and didn't notice that there were several passers-by around her. They stared at Ruan Fu's movements in amazement. The little girl looked so delicate, but she could actually do such things.
Ruan Fu didn't notice the gazes of others at all. After she finally finished cleaning up, she stood up and felt dizzy.
It might be because I squatted for a long time and my blood pressure is a little low.
She took a few deep breaths and waited for the dizziness to pass before rushing to the hospital.
The chef in the cafeteria was also a little surprised to see the ingredients she brought.
"Where did you buy this?"
"Master," Ruan Fu pleaded softly, "Can you make some soup for us? I'll just pay the processing fee."
The chef wanted to refuse outright, saying he was too busy with his own affairs to help with the soup. But seeing Ruan Fu covered in mud and in such a mess, he couldn't bring himself to say anything.
"Girl, who in your family is hospitalized here that deserves your wholehearted kindness to him?"
Ruan Fu smiled and said, "She's my daughter."
"oh."
The master understood and felt sorry for the loving hearts of all parents in the world.
I didn’t expect that the little girl, who looks young, is actually a mother.
He looked at the cleaned meat in the basket and said, "I can provide you with a stove, but this earthworm soup has a fishy smell. Children may not be able to drink it."
Beast turtle soup is very nutritious, but it always has a fishy smell. Even a cook like him can't get used to it, let alone a baby.
"I have a plan," Ruan Fu said quickly when she saw that the other party was willing to help. "Just add some rice wine and blanch it. I'll do it myself. You just need to help me light the fire."
The chef frowned, obviously not believing what the other party said. This is cooking, what use can rice wine be? The little girl knows nothing, and her fuss only makes a mess of it.
"Okay, then you can do it yourself. I'll help you watch the fire later."
"Thank you," Ruan Fu didn't hesitate any longer. She took the casserole handed to her by the other party, poured the cleaned turtle meat into it, quickly poured in rice wine and blanched it with water. After thinking for a while, she took out two red dates from her pocket.
This was what grandma Xie Dongmei put into her pocket when she went out in the morning.
Cover the pot and simmer on low heat.
Ruan Fu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master, please watch the fire for me. I'll go upstairs to check on the child and come back in an hour to get it."
She wanted to pay, but the master waved his hand and said, "Alright, this is all for the good of the child. Forget it."
The other party was firm in his attitude, so Ruan Fu had to give up and hurried to the ward.
She had been out for quite some time. She wondered if Tiantian had woken up now, or if she was crying and looking for someone...
These days, the county hospital is poorly equipped and the wards are simple.
Tiantian was a victim sent by the police station and enjoyed special treatment, staying in a single room.
The room was quiet, it seemed Tiantian was still sleeping.
When Ruan Fu entered the room, she found that there was one more person in the room.
The woman had her back to him and was carefully wiping her sweet little face with a towel.
She was startled and asked quickly, "Who are you?"
Wang Ying turned around and saw that Qin Fang had just gone to the office to find the doctor. In order to show her gentleness and virtue, she volunteered to stay and take care of the patient. Unexpectedly, not long after, the woman covered in mud rushed in.
She narrowed her eyes and suddenly realized what was happening.
Wasn't this woman the same country girl who had argued with him on the street earlier? Why was she so filthy and suddenly running in? Could it be that she also wanted to show off in front of Brother Qin?
Thinking of this, Wang Ying's tone was very unfriendly, "I should be the one asking you this. What are you doing here? Are you trying to cling to Brother Qin again?"
She was talking about Qin Fang just now. Could it be that he just came here too?
Ruan Fu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
The tension in my heart for the past few days suddenly relaxed. Now that he was here, I didn't have to handle all these things by myself, and the pressure was suddenly reduced a lot.
"I'm asking you a question, are you mute?" Wang Ying glared at her fiercely with an aggressive tone. No, she must get rid of this woman before Brother Qin comes back, and she must not let her ruin her good deeds.
"Can you just barge into the ward? Get out of here right now, or I'll call security!"
Ruan Fu came back to her senses, and four words suddenly flashed through her mind: the cuckoo takes over the magpie's nest.
I don’t know what Qin Fang said to the other party. This woman is too familiar. She acts like a hostess here. Who is she trying to scare?
Ruan Fu was no pushover. She simply threw caution to the wind and sneered, "Please open your eyes and see clearly. You are taking care of my daughter now. I am already being polite by not kicking you out. How can you give me orders?"
