Chapter 45 The Paper Found in the Cowshed
The next night, Zhou didn't tell anyone and planned to go to the cowshed to check again.
Compared to the first night, Zhou was no longer in a hurry this time. Instead, she waited until Old Lai finished his examination before quietly entering the house.
Turn the flashlight to its lowest setting, the weakest possible.
"Knock knock..."
I tapped the wall carefully, and it really was hollow.
If you gently pry it open and no plaster comes off, how do you open it?
Zhou Ye stared at the wall, carefully recalling all the possibilities his grandfather had mentioned!
"Three on the left, four on the right, press one?"
When she was little, her grandfather often played hide-and-seek with her. The game was always the same, was it this time?
What exactly did her grandfather leave her?
With a "click," a small crack actually appeared in the wall. Zhou Ye gently pulled it open, and there was a piece of paper inside. Zhou Ye was extremely excited, thinking it was a letter left for him by his grandfather.
After carefully putting the letter away and restoring the wall to its original state, I carefully checked for any traces I might have left before hurrying back to the educated youth settlement.
Leaning against the door, I took a deep breath.
After relaxing, Zhou opened the paper.
"Little cabbage, yellow in the field, old village chief, mouse..."
If the sun is the strongest, marry the sun; if the sun is not so strong, marry the moon...
…………
"The wall won't work. Thinking about it, I'll marry the rat man!"
Zhou also paused... This...
What's the meaning?
Grandpa would never leave behind just any folk song or rhyme for himself.
What's there to hide?
I picked up the paper and searched both sides, but still couldn't find a single clue!
The old village chief?
Mouse roc?
old?
Zhou really couldn't figure out what his grandfather meant. First, there was the nursery rhyme that he might have left for his own children to pass on, but it was missing the puppy!
It might be related to dogs!
Now it's the old village chief again, the Ratman?
Could it be the old village chief's doghouse?
This is ridiculous!
"Ah! Help... Help... Zhou Ye... Come quick, someone save me!"
A series of screams suddenly erupted from the front yard, startling Zhou Ye.
I turned on the light and casually hid the note in my pocket. I dusted myself off and looked out the window.
Suddenly, a dark figure lunged at the door from the darkness.
She frantically pounded on Zhou Ye's door.
"Zhou Zhiqing, open the door quickly! Help! Chen Lan has suddenly started convulsing!"
And... his whole body was hunched over...
What happened to her?
Help!
It was Wang Hongying knocking on the door!
Zhou frowned. That damned Chen Lan must be trying to save money by not wanting to spend money on vaccines!
Open the door: "Come on, let's go take a look!"
The girls' dormitory in the front yard is in complete chaos!
Huang Ying turned pale with fright and huddled together with Li Hong and another elderly educated youth, Liu Xiulan, not knowing what to do.
The male educated youth stood at the door, too afraid to go in! But they were also extremely anxious.
"Zhou Zhiqing is here! Everyone, make way!"
Someone shouted, and Zhou quickly walked in. As soon as he entered, he immediately confirmed his judgment!
tetanus!
The incubation period for tetanus infection is generally seven or eight days, with only a few cases having an incubation period of twenty-four hours. Chen Lan was just unlucky!
Wang Hongying cried so hard she could barely speak: "During the day, she felt like she couldn't open her mouth to eat and kept saying she was dizzy."
We all thought she was just being lazy and didn't want to cook! After all, she doesn't work!
But, just like that, everything happened...
What's wrong with her?
Zhou Ye took a deep breath: "Tetanus infection! Get to the hospital immediately!"
"Can't you cure it?"
Huang Ying chimed in.
Wang Hongying was still on good terms with Chen Lan. Upon hearing Huang Ying's words, she angrily complained, "How dare you say that? Before, the educated youth Zhou said to go to the county town to get vaccinated, but you stopped him from going."
You said that seeing so many people getting cut by sickles is a waste of money!
Now take a look?
If anything really happens to Chen Lan, it's all your fault! Huang Ying, you're the murderer!
Panic flashed in Huang Ying's eyes. She really didn't know, she really didn't know people could really die!
What she said is true!
But who would listen? After all, Wang Hongying is a witness; it was indeed she who persuaded him!
Chen Lan's painful and bizarre appearance terrified everyone present. If someone died at the educated youth settlement, who would dare to live there in the future?
and……
Everyone glared at Huang Ying with resentment.
I thought she was just mean-spirited, but also had a vicious heart.
Huang Ying was terrified.
He stepped forward and grabbed Zhou Ye: "Zhou, you can definitely save her, right? You two came together as educated youths, you have a revolutionary friendship."
You must cure her!
Zhou Ye took a deep breath and shouted sternly, "Go and call the village chief, tell him to bring an oxcart. Chen Lan must be taken to the hospital!"
Zhou Zhiming, who was outside the door, heard Zhou Ye's voice and shouted from outside, "I'll go! I'm quick on my feet!"
"Sister Zhou, what's wrong?"
Snow White burst in from the backyard!
Upon seeing Chen Lan's appearance, he was so frightened that he covered his mouth!
"Ah... what is this... what should I do? I saw a relative of mine go through something like this before, and he died not long after!"
Bai Xue's words plunged everyone present into fear once again!
Dead?
You really can die!
The older educated youth felt a wave of fear, because they had also been injured and hadn't been vaccinated, so they didn't really think it was a serious matter.
Zhou took out silver needles and needled the corresponding acupoints several times, and Chen Lan's breathing finally became less rapid.
Tears streamed down her face, but her jaw remained clenched...
Bai Xue couldn't bear it and covered her hand: "Don't be afraid, Zhou Zhiqing has already gone to call the village chief, and the village chief will come with a car."
Go to the hospital right away, everything will be alright!
Don't be afraid!
You must be strong and hold on!
Chen Lan looked at Zhou Ye; at this moment, she only trusted Zhou Ye!
"Yes, everything will be alright!"
Chen Lan's eyes reddened even more...
Seven or eight minutes later, the village chief and Xie Jianshe rushed into the educated youth settlement, with Zhou Zhiming following behind, panting heavily...
"Quickly, someone help Chen Zhiqing onto the oxcart, we have to hurry!"
The village chief was also encountering such a situation for the first time, and he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely!
Chen Lan was unable to get out of bed at this time, and the female educated youth could not possibly lift her up. The male educated youth looked at each other, but none of them made a move.
After all, this is an era that values reputation highly!
“I’ll do it!” Xie Jianshe said in a deep voice.
He took a bed sheet, placed it on his arms and hands, and half-lifted and half-pulled Chen Lan onto the oxcart with almost no effort.
"Will Zhou Ye, another educated youth, come along?"
The village chief said, "After all, it was Zhou Ye who bandaged the wound! We can explain it clearly if we go to the hospital!"
"good!"
Zhou wanted to go too, but Bai Xue was worried and insisted on going with him!
The group, disregarding their fatigue, arrived at the county hospital in half the usual time!
Outside the emergency room, the village chief thanked Zhou Ye: "Zhou, it's all thanks to you. We ordinary folks have no idea what tetanus is."
If you get it, you're basically just waiting to die! Completely confused...
"Having you here is a blessing for our Hongqi Village!"
Zhou Ye smiled slightly...
"Uncle Village Chief, thank you so much. You came so quickly, otherwise Chen Lan would have been in danger!"
But speaking of which, Construction Bro is really strong!
"Haha...Don't mention it! He was small when he was little, and he was born in the Year of the Rat, so everyone in his family called him 'Little Rat Boy'! Haha..."
Mouse roc?
