Chapter 363 Mao Mao saved us again
Ding ding.
The grandfather clock in the hall chimed a few times precisely on time.
The big white cat lying on the sofa cushion was the first to raise its head, open its heterochromatic eyes, and look out the French windows.
The big white cat meowed at the old lady sitting next to it and jumped off the sofa.
Its fluffy tail held high as it nuzzled against Mao Mao, who was focused on her lesson. Its round body brushed against Mao Mao's little feet, which were dangling in mid-air, and it meowed sweetly, "Meow~"
Mao Mao glanced nervously at her second aunt, who was standing in front of the blackboard.
"Shh," she whispered, "Kitty, not yet."
Meow~~
"Kitty, you can only play after class."
Meow~~~
Mao Mao peeked out from under the crook of her arm and whispered to the big white cat, "Cat, wait a little longer, I'll be done with get out of class soon."
Meow~~~~
The big white cat straightened its upper body and pawed at her with its furry paws.
The clock has already struck, why can't we finish class yet?
Mao Mao gently comforted it.
However, no matter how soft her voice was, she was one of only two students in this private tutoring class, and her every move was under the teacher's watchful eye, making everything she did very obvious.
The second concubine stood in front of the small blackboard, barely able to contain her laughter.
Seeing that the big white cat's meows were getting louder and louder, and even Mao Mao could hardly calm it down, the second concubine cleared her throat and said, "get out of class is over."
Upon hearing this, both students simultaneously breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Xia Xiaoxiang, Mao Mao's get out of class is over, you're not allowed to leave, you still have to have extra lessons!"
Xia Xiaoxiang: "..."
Xia Xiaoxiang's back, which had just straightened up, suddenly bent back down.
Mao Mao didn't have her mother's worries. She immediately climbed down from the chair: "Mother, Third Mother, I'm going to play with the cat."
Meow~
After saying goodbye to their mother and grandmother, the cat and its mother happily ran out.
What to play?
Of course, we should play on the newly built playground equipment in the courtyard.
The slide and swings. Before the children invited by Mao Mao arrived, it suddenly became her and the big white cat's favorite place to play, even the toy cars that they used to love were relegated to the back.
"Kitty, slow down."
The human and the cat skillfully approached the slide and climbed up using both hands and feet.
The big white cat, dragging its long, bushy tail, leaped up the steps in a few steps and stood at the very top. Instead of sliding down, it turned around and meowed at Mao Mao below.
"I'm here!"
Mao Mao also climbed to the top of the slide.
She sat down on the slide, stretched out her short legs, and the big white cat jumped onto her. With a stretch of her little hands, the two of them slid down the slide.
The cheerful, babyish voice echoed in the courtyard.
After getting tired of the slide, they switched to the swings.
Mao Mao climbed onto the swing and sat down, shifting her little bottom to the side. The big white cat jumped up and sat in the empty space next to her.
However, a swing needs someone to push it; it can't swing on its own. Her short legs, suspended in mid-air, kicked a little, and the swing only swayed slightly twice before quickly stopping.
Meow~
Mao Mao looked around and saw the mothers in the small living room. Her eyes sparkled as she waved her little hand in that direction.
Xia Xiaoxiang caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of her eye, immediately put down her pencil and stood up: "I'll go help Mao Mao push the swing."
The second concubine put her hands on her hips and said, "Xia Xiaoxiang, sit back down!"
Old Madam Lou put down her teacup, reached for her cane, and stood up: "I'll go push it for them."
"..." Xia Xiaoxiang looked miserable and slowly sat back down: "Sigh."
The second concubine found it amusing: "You don't want to go to class? I should be saying that to you too! I teach you every day, and you still fail! You can get everything right, don't you feel ashamed as your mother?"
Xia Xiaoxiang retorted, "If you gave me the same question as Mao Mao, I could answer it correctly too."
"Mao Mao is only four years old, how can you compare her to her?"
"..."
The second concubine tapped on the table: "I have to give you a lesson today, so I gave up going shopping with the first wife. Hurry up and finish writing so I can go play with Mao Mao."
Xia Xiaoxiang frowned, thinking to herself: She also wanted to play with Mao Mao...
Outside the floor-to-ceiling window, Mao Mao and the big white cat were happily swinging on the swing.
Every time she saw this scene, Madam Lou was amazed.
Her cat is usually quite timid and easily frightened, so it tends to hide in corners. But when it's with Mao Mao, it even dares to swing on the swing.
However, the cat only dares to swing when it's with Mao Mao. If it's alone, it will dart away in fright as soon as it's pushed.
After helping push the swing for a while, Old Madam Lou saw a car drive in from outside.
The first wife, along with her first concubine and third concubine, returned home after going out shopping.
As soon as she got out of the car, seeing Mao Mao playing in the courtyard, Third Aunt picked up the bag in her hand and came over excitedly: "Baby! Look what Fourth Aunt bought for you."
The third concubine unfolded the woolen coat in her hand.
The coat wasn't unusual; she had many of the same material in her wardrobe, some even more stylish. What was unusual was that she had two coats in her hand, one large and one small.
He draped the larger piece of clothing over himself and the smaller piece over Mao Mao.
The third concubine raised her delicately drawn eyebrows and said with a beaming smile, "I saw it in the department store, it was being sold together, and I immediately fell in love with it. When Mao Mao and I wore them out, people could tell at a glance that we were mother and daughter."
Five mothers walking together, it would take an outsider quite a while to tell them apart.
First wife: "Mao Mao, I also bought you a new pair of shoes."
The first wife handed her handbag to the maids and came over to chat with them.
Old Madam Lou: "Why are you back so early?"
"When we passed by Renji Hospital, we saw Fengju's soldiers arresting people, including several doctors," the First Madam said. "We were afraid something had happened, so we came back first."
"The hospital?" Old Madam Lou pondered, "Heming is in the hospital, I hope nothing bad has happened to him."
The first wife and the others only looked around from a distance and didn't know the specifics.
What Lou Fengju sent men to arrest must be no small matter. We'll just have to wait until he gets home to find out.
However, neither General Lou nor Lou Fengju went home that night; instead, they heard the reason for the incident from Lou Heming.
"A fake medical report?!"
Lou Hongjian's eyes widened: "Can test reports be falsified? What if someone alters my medical results and fabricates my illness? Wouldn't I be forced to undergo surgery for nothing?"
Lou Heming nodded: "I think that's the purpose of the person behind the scenes."
Although surgery involves cutting open a person's abdomen, a person is not made of cotton. Just cutting and stitching up is a huge ordeal, let alone the fact that Allen's physical condition is worse than that of an average person. If he is not careful, it could be fatal.
There's no need to explain how sinister the hidden conspiracy is; everyone present, except for Mao Mao, has already made the connection.
Surgical accidents are inevitable, and if it is just a surgical accident, the patient's family is not necessarily unable to accept it.
But what if it's misdiagnosed?
After cutting open the abdomen, they found that the organs inside were perfectly healthy, requiring no treatment, and the act actually cost the patient his life. No family member could accept this fact.
Imagine if their family members were in this situation, they would do everything in their power to make that doctor pay!
Moreover, Allen's family members are not ordinary people.
The person who treated Allen was no ordinary person either.
The mastermind behind this scheme bribed several doctors who conducted the tests and used a fake test report to almost pull off a major conspiracy!
Lou Heming couldn't help but pat his little sister's head. "All of this is thanks to Mao Mao for reminding me."
"hold head high?"
Mao Mao tilted her little head up and stared blankly at her brother.
After her brother said there was a problem with Allen's medical report, she couldn't understand anything anymore.
“I had originally scheduled Allen for surgery today. If Mao Mao hadn’t reminded me that Allen hadn’t had any tests done, I wouldn’t have discovered the problem,” Lou Heming said with lingering fear. “If it had been any later, it would have been too late.”
But fortunately, thanks to Mao Mao's timely reminder, he stopped everything before it happened.
Just thinking about it filled Lou Heming with waves of lingering fear.
Doctors treat patients based on test results, so who would suspect that there is a problem with the test report?
As a doctor, he had witnessed countless life-and-death situations. Doctors are not gods, and there have been instances where surgery failed to save a patient. But he absolutely did not want to see a patient die not because of his best efforts, which ultimately proved ineffective.
His medical skills can be improved, but life cannot be turned back.
Lou Heming stroked his sister's soft hair and whispered, "Mao Mao, thank you. Thank you for saving Allen."
Mao Mao stared at him blankly.
It took her a while to realize what was happening: "Ah!"
"Brother, are you saying that someone wants to harm Allen?"
"That's right."
"That's awful!" Mao Mao angrily clenched her little fist and punched him. "Bad guy!"
"That's right, they're all bad people!"
Lou Hongjian walked around and couldn't resist picking Mao Mao up high, spinning her around twice in the air, and then giving her a big kiss on each cheek.
The two loud "pop" sounds made the other two brothers stand up.
"Mao Mao, you are really amazing!" Lou Hongjian hugged his sister tightly, touching her again and again, as if touching a Buddha statue to bring him good fortune: "If it weren't for you, your second brother would have been harmed."
"hold head high?"
Mao Mao was being kneaded and rubbed by her brother's big hands. The anger that had just risen up was kneaded away in a daze. Her soft, chubby breasts were kneaded out of shape. When Lou Yansui picked her up, her head was also kneaded until she was dizzy, and her eyes were spinning like mosquito coils.
She said, still dizzy, "Mao Mao... Mao Mao doesn't know..."
"Third brother, don't get too excited." Lou Yansui tidied up his sister and looked at his brother warily: "Don't scare Mao Mao."
"Ah Sui, don't blame me, I... I couldn't help it!"
If the big white cat hadn't run away so fast, Lou Hongjian would have liked to pick it up and pet it too.
"It was so close! If Second Brother had really performed surgery on that Allen guy, he would be the one being arrested by Eldest Brother now!" Lou Hongjian said dramatically. "And that Mr. Dean, I've dealt with him before, he's not someone to be trifled with. Our whole family might have been arrested!"
Lou Heming coughed and said, "Ah Hong, that's going too far."
Although his whole family might not be arrested, he will definitely be arrested.
He wouldn't mind sacrificing himself if it meant not implicating his father and Haicheng. But his sacrifice alone might not be enough to quell the crisis.
The current situation is tense, and this incident could become a trigger for an even greater disaster.
Millions of people in Haicheng, and even across the country, will likely become cannon fodder in this conspiracy.
Fortunately, everything was prevented before the disaster struck.
Not only Lou Hongjian couldn't resist, but everyone else couldn't either. The wives crowded around, cupped Mao Mao's little face, and kissed her again and again to express their excitement.
Even the old lady of the Lou family couldn't resist. She grabbed Mao Mao's two little hands and looked her over and over several times. She even lifted up her sleeve to look at the needle hole that had disappeared.
“Our Mao Mao is a lucky star.” Old Madam Lou said repeatedly, “Thank God, Mao Mao has saved us again.”
"It is thanks to Mao Mao's blessing."
Lou Heming held Mao Mao's chubby arm, his fingertips tracing the spots where the needle had been: "If Mao Mao hadn't given you her cold, she wouldn't have been sleeping with me all this time, and she wouldn't have reminded me last night."
Lou Hongjian touched his nose and muttered to himself, "So, we're actually cured?"
I don't know if I'm getting better or not.
Lou Heming looked at his younger sister surrounded by the crowd, his eyes behind his gold-rimmed glasses smiling gently: "But I know that it's a good thing that Mao Mao sleeps with me. Mao Mao, from now on you'll sleep with your second brother every day, okay?"
"Hey, second brother, don't try to take advantage of the situation!"
"Yes, I disagree!"
Mao Mao struggles to break free from the adults' love.
Her hair was a mess, her clothes were a mess, and there were several lipstick marks on her cheeks.
She was panting heavily: "Mao Mao didn't do anything?"
"Why not?"
Everyone said in unison, "Mao Mao, you've done too much!"
No one understands better than the Lou family how lucky Xiao Fuxing is.
No one understood better than Lou Hongjian just how much they had benefited from the situation.
Since Mao Mao came to their family, good things have happened one after another, and she has saved one person after another.
First, she helped him expose the swindler, and then she helped her older brother avoid the explosives.
Ah Sui also cheered up again because of Mao Mao, and now, Second Brother has also been saved by Mao Mao!
I can't imagine what would happen if it weren't for Mao Mao. If the eldest and second eldest brothers had both met with misfortune, and the younger brother was still depressed and despondent, then the entire Lou family would have to rely on him.
Rely on him?
Lou Hongjian shuddered.
Lou Hongjian squeezed in: "Mao Mao, sleep with your brother tonight. It's been so long since I've slept with you! I'll take you out to play tomorrow!"
Lou Heming raised his hand and pushed away his younger brother's face that was leaning close: "Ah Hong, you're still sick, stay away from Mao Mao."
Lou Hongjian was unwilling to give up: "Then I..."
"Well, I'm cured."
Xia Xiaoxiang raised her hand in the crowd, beaming, and said, "I took my temperature, and it's normal. I don't have any symptoms of illness. No need to trouble you two young masters, Mao Mao can come back and sleep with me now."
"..."
She narrowly escaped another major crisis, and her illness was cured.
Xia Xiaoxiang thought excitedly: Today is really a good day!
