Chapter 154: Eager to Save People



Aunt Jiang burst into tears, her body softened and she knelt down. Xu Ranyun quickly helped her up, held her hand tightly and said, "Don't worry, I won't leave. I'll watch over you and Chuan'er, and see that you are fine. Chuan'er is my son, and he will be blessed by heaven. It's okay, it's definitely okay, don't be afraid."

Aunt Jiang nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. Doctor Liao had already written a prescription and asked someone to prepare the medicine for decoction. While waiting for the decoction, Duan Maochuan had diarrhea two or three times, all of which were watery. How could a little guy withstand such torment? He gradually became unconscious.

Doctor Liao came in again and asked Aunt Jiang, "Have you asked what my brother ate?"

Aunt Jiang finally came to her senses and quickly leaned over to Duan Maochuan's ear to ask. Duan Maochuan was still in a daze at the moment. When he heard his mother asking him if he had eaten anything cold, he murmured, "I... I ate... ice cream..."

Aunt Jiang's face suddenly turned pale. Xu Ranyun showed an expression of pity on his face. He grabbed her and turned to Doctor Liao and said anxiously: "Is there any other way? Since we know it is caused by coldness, just prescribe the right medicine. What's the point of asking these questions?"

"Grandma, that's not what you say." Doctor Liao was a little unhappy: "Treating a disease is a matter of life and death, so of course you have to make sure everything is clear..." Having said that, probably thinking that it would be unlikely to be useful even if you ask clearly, he stopped talking, but just walked forward and lifted Duan Maochuan's eyelids to take a look, his expression becoming more and more solemn.

"It's her, it must be her. She didn't kill Chuan Ge'er last time, and now she's here again..."

Aunt Jiang's whole body was shaking like a leaf in the wind, her face was red as chicken blood, and she suddenly broke free from Xu Ranyun's hand and was about to rush out, but was caught by Cui Ping Fengxian. Xu Ranyun shouted, "You are confused, you don't know anything at the moment, what are you going to do? What's the point of going? Chuan'er is not dead yet, what he needs most at this moment is you, his mother, in front of him, can you still tell the difference between the important and the unimportant?"

Aunt Jiang was stunned, and then burst into tears. Xu Ranyun quickly asked Fengxian to send Doctor Liao to the side hall to serve tea, and sat in front of Duan Maochuan's bed. She kept saying, "Brother Chuan, you must do your best. Your mother is counting on you in this life..."

Before she could finish her words, she suddenly heard the maids outside saying in unison, "Grandma is coming." Then the door curtain was lifted. Su Nuannuan rushed in like a gust of wind, her cloak flying high, and snowflakes fell all over the ground.

"What happened to Chuan?" Seeing Duan Maochuan who seemed to be in a coma on the bed, Su Nuannuan's face turned pale. Among Duan Tingxuan's children, the two girls were still young, and boys usually went there. She liked the honest and well-behaved Duan Maochuan the most, but she didn't expect that the little guy who was fine in the morning would be reported to be dying in the afternoon. How could she accept this?

"You still dare to come?"

Aunt Jiang's eyes were full of bloodshot. She ran towards Su Nuannuan, forgetting the hierarchy in her rage, and grabbed her sleeve and pushed her hard. She screamed, "You vicious woman, you didn't kill Chuan Ge'er last year. You are not willing to accept it, right? You saw this opportunity today, and you want to kill him. You...what grudge do we have against you? Why do you want to kill him so badly?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Are you crazy? You are slandering our grandma." Honglian and Xiangyun had just entered the room. Upon hearing this, the two maids were furious. They stepped forward, grabbed Aunt Jiang and started scolding her harshly.

"Don't worry about her." Su Nuannuan said in a deep voice, looking at the nurse in front of the bed, and said sternly: "Tell me, what's going on with Brother Chuan?"

"Get out! Who asked you to act so pretentiously here?" Aunt Jiang yelled and tried to push Su Nuannuan again, but was stopped by Honglian and Xiangyun.

"Speak." Su Nuannuan didn't even look at Aunt Jiang. Her eyes, which were always smiling, were extremely cold. Since returning to the backyard, Yang had never seen her look so stern. She felt a chill in her heart and stammered, "Brother...brother didn't like to eat much at noon. He drank a bowl of soup, and then...he started to have diarrhea. He has had diarrhea five or six times now, and he...he is in a coma. The doctor said he ate something cold."

"Are you still pretending? Chuan Ge'er has already said that he ate your ice cream in Chunfeng Garden. You evil woman with a black heart, feeding him ice cream in such a cold weather. Poor Chuan Ge'er is only four years old, his little stomach can't stand such a cold thing. If Chuan Ge'er dies today, I will not let you go even if I become a ghost, I will not let you go..."

Aunt Jiang was crying and yelling, looking crazy. Su Nuannuan glanced at her, turned her head and said to the two women at the door, "Aunt is a little confused right now, and her yelling makes you feel uneasy. Let's put her in the outer room first." After that, she ignored Aunt Jiang and turned to ask the nurse, "What did the doctor say?"

"Doctor Liao asked us to call the imperial physician quickly, saying that... the symptoms are very serious, and I'm afraid... it's not going to be good." Yang said tremblingly, thinking that this eldest lady was really tough. It turned out that her gentle smile on weekdays was all fake. At this critical moment, her true colors were revealed. It was obviously her who harmed Chuan'er, but now she let people drag the concubine out without blinking an eye. What a vicious and poisonous woman, she is just like this.

Su Nuannuan's eyes swept across Xu Ranyun's face, and she saw that there were still traces of tears in the corners of his eyes. His expression was calm, but there was a sense of resentment in his eyes. Besides that, there seemed to be a bit of complacency. Maybe the other party didn't notice it, but Su Nuannuan had lived two lives. What kind of people had she not dealt with? How many TV dramas had she watched? How could she hide the meaning of such a blatant look from her?

While talking, Duan Maochuan had two more watery bowel movements. Su Nuannuan clenched her fists and her heart ached. She forced herself to stay calm, and tried to recall the modern emergency treatment methods for toxic diarrhea: Duan Maochuan had been eating ice cream since summer, and he also ate a lot of it in autumn and winter because the house was warm and their greedy father was a role model. Logically, his stomach should have adapted to the coldness. Even if he was uncomfortable, he couldn't have such severe diarrhea. Even if he ate a lot and drank hot water after eating, it would never be so quickly that it was irreversible. Someone must have taken advantage of the situation and fed him something else, making the situation worse. And the reason for doing this was probably to frame him.

Thinking of this, Su Nuannuan couldn't help but feel cold all over, but she knew very well that now was not the time to pursue the matter. Duan Maochuan's life and death was only a matter of moments, and she must do her best to save the child.

"Get some warm water, in a large cup. And a basin."

Her thoughts were quickly sorted out. Su Nuannuan sat on the bed without hesitation and picked up Duan Maochuan. Honglian and Xiangyun looked at each other and saw the fear in each other's eyes. In such a situation, others would not even bother to avoid suspicion, but grandma actually wanted to take over. If Duan Maochuan really died today, how could she explain it clearly?

"Hurry up." Seeing that no one moved, Su Nuannuan couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and shouted again.

"Grandma..." Honglian Xiangyun finally had to speak, but she saw her master suddenly look up, her eyes were like sharp swords, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Didn't you hear what I said? Go quickly."

"Yes." The two maids had no choice but to follow the instructions. Aunt Jiang finally broke free from the two maids, rushed in with her hair disheveled, and was about to pounce on Su Nuannuan, shouting, "You are afraid that Chuan Ge'er will not die, so you came here to attack him, right?"

"Stop right there. I want to save Chuan Ge'er. If he dies today, I will pay for his life. But if you, as his mother, delay my saving him, don't blame me for being rude to you. Get out of the way, shut up quietly, and we can talk about anything later."

Su Nuannuan shouted harshly, and the words "If he dies, I will pay with my own life" shocked everyone. Even Aunt Jiang, who loved her son dearly and was heartbroken, was shocked and was dragged out by the old woman again.

Honglian Xiangyun quickly brought warm water, and the old woman also prepared a basin and half-knelt beside the bed. Su Nuannuan hugged Duan Maochuan and asked Xiangyun to pinch his mouth open and carefully feed the water into him. After feeding him half a cup, Duan Maochuan shook his head twice in pain, and there were faint waves of movement in his chest and abdomen. She quickly turned him over, and then heard a "wow" and Duan Maochuan vomited out the water and the contents of his stomach.

"You...you vicious woman..."

Aunt Jiang was so angry that her eyes were about to burst. She wanted to rush forward several times, but was stopped by the maids. It was also a coincidence that the two maids had followed to Pushan Temple that day. They felt that they had received the grace of the eldest grandmother who saved their lives, and now was the time to repay her. They did not believe that it was the eldest grandmother who killed Young Master Chuan. If the eldest grandmother was such a vicious woman, why would she stay alone in Pushan Temple for the sake of the second girl, and live and die with the maids? Why would she come in person and take such a risk to save Young Master Chuan in such a weird way? The words "If he dies, I will pay with my life" were so resounding and righteous. Could a vicious woman shout them out?

In less than a quarter of an hour, Duan Maochuan vomited three times, and in the end, all he vomited was clear water. Su Nuannuan then wiped his mouth and neck clean. During this period of time, the little guy defecated twice again, and a large amount of watery fluid stained Su Nuannuan's snow-blue pleated skirt. Although there was no obvious odor, many maids still lowered their eyes and turned their heads away without leaving any trace, thinking that even if it was a child's defecation and urination, it was really disgusting. The eldest grandmother has always been noble and clean, it's hard for her to endure it.

Aunt Jiang was still crying outside, scolding the two women who were holding her as accomplices. She knelt on the ground, pounding the ground and crying, "Oh my God, oh my God, do you have any sense? That vicious woman is in the house, harming my son in front of everyone, and I, as a mother, can't even stop her. Grandma Yun... Grandma Yun... please save my brother Chuan, please save us mother and son... Ahhhh!"
