Why are the pests so severe this year?
The director of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences came in person. The commonly used insecticides were no longer effective, and the insects had even developed resistance.
While everyone was still discussing the issue, Yang Yufen went to check on the fruit trees as usual and found some children picking up the fruit that had been cut down from the trees.
Those were all medications that hadn't worked after one treatment. Yang Yufen was worried that the child might get sick from them, so she quickly walked over.
"Those fruits are inedible!"
Yang Yufen shouted, and the children were terrified to see an adult. They couldn't bear to part with the fruit, so they ran away. Yang Yufen was anxious and quickly chased after them.
"Children, children, the fruit contains medicine, I'm not trying to hit you."
Yang Yufen shouted, but she wasn't paying attention and tripped over a branch that the children had pulled out while picking up fruit.
Yang Yufen's fall terrified the children. They abandoned the fruit in their pockets, hesitated for a moment, and then ran back.
He wanted to help Yang Yufen but didn't dare.
"Go and call someone for Grandma. Children, these fruits have been sprayed with pesticides, so you can't eat them. Let's wait until they're ripe, okay?"
Yang Yufen felt something was wrong with her knee and dared not move. Looking at the child who was quite frightened, she endured the pain and did not say anything harsh.
"sorry."
The oldest child realized what was happening, apologized, and quickly went to find someone.
Yang Yufen was taken to the hospital, and the children were disciplined by the adults. Their families all lived nearby, and the orchard usually needed a lot of temporary helpers, which created many opportunities for them to do odd jobs.
Yang Yufen sighed when she saw the children who had been badly beaten. How could she not guess what these people meant by bringing the children?
"You all know that the fruit in the orchard has been sprayed with pesticides. If something happens to your child because of a few fruits, can you accept the consequences?"
My knee is in a cast; the injury is at the joint, and I can't even bend it. It will take at least three months to recover.
The dislocation and fracture are very serious. The surgery was just completed, and it's unknown how well the recovery will go. At this age, there will inevitably be many aftereffects.
Aunt Wang came and chased the people away.
"Look at you, so stubborn but soft-hearted, you've suffered all the consequences yourself."
“I’m already this old. If something happens to a group of kids, it won’t be good for our orchard. These people will definitely cause trouble.”
Yang Yufen's words silenced Wang Da Niang. When nothing was going on, they seemed easy to get along with, but when something happened, people's hearts turned out to be treacherous, and it was because they hadn't handled things cleanly enough.
If the cut fruit trees had been burned along with their fruit, or if they hadn't been placed in areas easily accessible to children, perhaps none of this would have happened.
"You should focus on recovering from your injury. Don't worry about the orchard. We shouldn't skimp on things that can't be saved. If we had blocked everything up high, these kinds of things wouldn't have happened."
This incident also served as a wake-up call for the two of them, prompting them to consider the worst-case scenario: it's not impossible that someone would accuse them of deliberately poisoning people. Argumentative people always find a way to pinpoint the problem.
Yang Yufen didn't call Qin Nian, but Zhou Ang, as the surgeon, didn't hide it from Qin Nian.
"The old lady is seriously injured and will be unable to move for at least six months."
Qin Nian's heart clenched when she received the call.
"I'm asking for leave to go back."
Qin Nian made a decision immediately.
Shen Xianjun had gone for further studies, and Qin Nian couldn't ask for leave even if she contacted him at this time, so she simply didn't call.
