Senior Brother Cao ate hot and sour noodles with her. Xie Wanying's heart skipped a beat.
"What delicious food did he buy? Hot and sour noodles?" Li Xiaobing asked as he leaned close to the phone, as if he could smell the aroma of rice from a long distance away.
"Sister, you can't eat hot and sour noodles when you have a toothache." Xie Wanying turned around and warned her sister to be more careful about what she eats.
"Okay, I'll watch you two eat hot and sour noodles." Li Xiaobing smiled, thinking that Cao Yong was a romantic man. He said he would accompany his junior sister to eat hot and sour noodles and then wait for her husband to tell her about it.
Xie Wanying looked at her senior sister's somewhat weird smile and blinked.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the corridor, Sisi's mother was worried that the cotton ball in her daughter's mouth might move. She held her daughter's face with both hands to stop her from moving: "I told you not to move your mouth. The cotton ball in your mouth is medicine to make it less painful for your teeth to bite. If you move around, won't you feel more uncomfortable?"
It was uncomfortable. The medicine in the cotton ball was bitter. Sisi had already felt so nauseous that she wanted to vomit, so she chewed it with her little mouth.
Seeing that her daughter was not listening, Sisi's mother was so angry that she stretched out her hand and slapped the child on the butt.
After being hit by her mother, Sisi was very frightened. Her little nose felt sore and she wanted to cry. When she opened her mouth and took a breath through her nose, the cotton ball in her mouth fell down, and then her little hands covered her throat.
...
...
"What's wrong, Sisi?" Sisi's mother noticed her daughter's abnormality and anxiously pulled up her little head. "Come, show mom what you did. Open your mouth."
Being forced by her mother to pull up her face, Sisi's head tilted back, her little face turned pale, her eyelids rolled up, and a "ugh" sound came from her little throat.
"Are you choking?" Sisi's mother pried open her daughter's mouth and put her fingers into it, trying to dig something out. But she didn't get anything, and her daughter's whole body went limp and fell into her arms.
After a while, Xie Wanying and Li Xiaobing, who had reached the end and turned the corner, heard someone calling for a doctor loudly: "Doctor, doctor!"
"What happened?" Li Xiaobing quickly turned around to see what was going on.
"Senior Sister, please find a place to sit. I'll go over and take a look. Don't be anxious." Having learned from the last experience, Xie Wanying now has to make arrangements for her senior sister first.
"You go." Knowing what she was worried about, Li Xiaobing held the railing next to her, let go of her hand, pointed ahead and told her to go and save people.
Xie Wanying felt relieved only after she was sure that she, a pregnant woman, would not run around. She turned around and started running.
At the loud cry for help from the child's mother, a nurse in her 40s or 50s who had not yet finished her shift ran out of the clinic to take a look. She judged the situation and called for help from her colleagues: "Something happened to a child. She seemed to be suffocating." While calling for help, the nurse came to the child and tried to see if she could do some first aid. She asked the child's mother: "What's wrong with her? What did she eat?"
"She didn't eat anything. She just had her teeth treated." The child's mother said, "The doctor told her to chew on a cotton ball and stay here for observation. She can go back if she's fine."
Is the cotton ball stuck in the trachea? The nurse was shocked to hear this and asked, "Which doctor did she see?"
"Doctor Chen," the child's mother asked, "Do you need me to go back and get Doctor Chen?"
"You can ask him to come over." The nurse asked the child to look down and patted the child's back hard with one hand.
After a while of patting, nothing seemed to come out. The child's soft body leaned weakly against the adult, and he made a gurgling sound in his little throat.
