Chapter 16



Without caring about the quarrel, the group rushed to the hospital immediately. Lu Nong hesitated for a moment and finally followed them.

Pei Zheng only heard his uncle-in-law give a general account on the phone. Aunt Sun fed Xiao Qian milk, but Xiao Qian vomited and had diarrhea after drinking it. Fortunately, his uncle-in-law happened to go to his grandmother's house to see Xiao Qian, so he sent Xiao Qian to the hospital in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

When Pei Zheng heard that Aunt Sun had gone to take care of Xiao Qian, he was completely speechless towards his aunt.

Their family dismissed Aunt Sun, but the aunt took her back without even asking why she dismissed her.

Didn't she think about it? If there was no hidden story, why would her father dismiss the nanny who had worked at home for more than ten years for no reason?

Thinking about it again, my aunt just suspected that Lu Nong framed Aunt Sun...I can guess that she was deceived by Aunt Sun.

It's even worse.

It's the same old saying. I would rather believe an outsider's one-sided statement than ask my family. I'm so biased.

When they arrived at the door of the hospital's emergency room, Pei's father and mother and Pei Mingxia's husband Song Yeping were all there. Pei Mingxia grabbed her husband's arm and said, "How is Qianqian? Tell me! Tell me quickly!"

"Don't worry," Song Yeping nodded to Pei Mingxia's brother-in-law Pei Ji'an, who was following behind him, and comforted his wife, "The doctor is trying his best to save her inside. The hospital has called in the best emergency doctor."

"How can I not be anxious!"

Pei Mingxia was extremely emotional. She only had one child, Song Qian. She had a difficult birth and the doctor told her that it would be difficult to have another child in the future. Song Qian was almost her life.

Pei Mingxia pushed Song Yeping away and tried to rush into the emergency room, but Song Yeping grabbed her from behind and tried to explain, "It will be useless if you go in now. It will only delay the doctors from saving Qianqian."

"How can it be of no use? I'm her mother!" Pei Mingxia yelled, and then collapsed in her husband's arms, crying.

"Xia Xia, don't worry, Qian Qian will be fine."

Pei's mother wanted to comfort her daughter, but Pei Mingxia suddenly stood up from Song Yeping's arms and stared at her, "How did Qianqian get food poisoning?"

For a moment, the air seemed to be stagnant.

"Are you doubting me?"

Pei's mother was over fifty years old, with her hair neatly combed and wearing the clothes most commonly worn by female cadres. It could be seen that she was a capable person. But after hearing what her daughter said, she took a few steps back in disbelief, looking extremely vicious.

"What do you want me to think? I handed Qianqian over to you, but now she is lying in the emergency room..."

"That's enough!" Pei's father interrupted Pei Mingxia, his face showing fatigue. "We didn't take good care of Qianqian. Your mother and I apologize to you. When Qianqian gets better, we'll hand him over to you two to take care of him."

"dad……"

"Uncle-in-law, where is Aunt Sun?"

Song Yeping wanted to say something, but Pei Zheng spoke first. He couldn't stand his aunt's nonsense.

According to his intuition, Song Qian's poisoning was most likely related to Aunt Sun. It was really ugly that the aunt let the poison into the house herself and pushed the responsibility onto grandpa and grandma.

Even if grandpa and grandma didn't take good care of him, did they intend to harm Song Qian?

Song Yeping was stunned and looked around, "I was just here..."

Then he paused. Song Yeping was not a fool. On the contrary, he had a high IQ. He frowned and said, "You suspect it was her?"

Pei Zheng nodded. "I don't know if my aunt told you that Aunt Sun stole things and money from our home and was fired by my father."

As soon as he finished speaking, Pei's father, mother and Song Yeping were all stunned. Song Yeping looked at Pei Mingxia, and a trace of guilt and evasion flashed across Pei Mingxia's face.

He closed his eyes tiredly. A person can be stupid, but he must know his own worth. Pei Mingxia just thinks she is too smart.

When Sister Sun first came home, Song Yeping once asked Pei Mingxia why Pei Jianan left Sister Sun, but what did she say?

She said that it was Lu Nong who instigated Pei Jinan and could not tolerate Sister Sun.

Song Yeping did not comment, but for the sake of caution, he suggested not to use Sister Sun. What if Sister Sun held a grudge and was driven away by Pei Jinan, and took revenge on them?

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. He broke down this principle and explained it to Pei Mingxia, but Pei Mingxia refuted it again, saying that Sister Sun was not that kind of person.

Pei Mingxia insisted on her own way, and he couldn't persuade his wife. He had to go to his mother-in-law's house a few more times to see how his grandson treated the child. He felt relieved after a few times. Unexpectedly, something went wrong in the end. It was also his fault. He shouldn't have compromised from the beginning.

Pei's father and mother naturally saw Pei Mingxia's expression and felt disappointed. This daughter whom they loved and pampered and held in their hands had grown up to be wrong.

Maybe it had been crooked for a long time, but they just didn't believe it. Instead, it was the second son who they looked down upon before...

Mother Pei looked at her second son who was away from the crowd and sighed in her heart.

Pei Zheng continued to analyze, "I heard you, uncle-in-law, say on the phone that Xiaoqian got into trouble after Aunt Sun fed him milk powder. Where is the milk powder?"

"Still testing." Song Yeping had some medical knowledge. When he sent his son to the hospital, in order to prescribe the right medicine and buy the best time to save him, he tested everything his son had eaten that day.

Milk powder is the last food that Qianqian eats, so it is naturally the top priority. There is no way Song Yeping would not take it.

In fact, Song Yeping also suspected that there was something wrong with the milk powder. The milk powder that Song Qian drank was specially bought from abroad by Song Yeping through an old classmate. Before Pei Zheng said that there was something wrong with Sister Sun, he once thought that it was related to the problem of enemy spies.

"I suspect that Xiaoqian's milk powder was secretly replaced by Aunt Sun." Aunt Sun had done this before in the Little Red House.

Pei Jinan receives nutritional supplements every month, including milk powder. Pei Jinan himself doesn't like to drink it, while Pei Zheng prefers to drink fresh milk. He only uses milk powder as a substitute after he has finished the fresh milk.

One time, Pei Zheng made a cup of milk powder and found that the taste was different from what he had drunk before. It was unpalatable and a bit bitter. Pei Zheng was not a person who would waste food, so he drank it anyway no matter how unpalatable it was. Who would have thought that he would have diarrhea that night.

A few days later, new milk powder was distributed. When he passed by the kitchen, he happened to see the nanny secretly pouring out the milk powder in the can and pouring a packet of milk powder into the original can.

Only then did he realize that he had diarrhea a few days ago because he drank the inferior milk powder that the nanny had secretly replaced.

Things became simple after that. We just had to wait for the milk powder to be tested to see if there was a problem with the milk powder. If there was a problem, we would find out if the milk powder had been replaced and then follow the line of nanny Sun.

The atmosphere calmed down for a while, and Lu Nong stood out.

There was no way, she was too outstanding. Even if she just stood there without saying a word, she seemed to be radiating light, and no one could ignore her.

Lu Nong was lost in her own thoughts. She had treated herself as an invisible person since she arrived at the hospital. No matter how big a commotion Pei Mingxia made, she would not join in. At most, she would just come to make up the numbers.

It's not surprising that she did this, but what's strange is that Pei Ji'an, as Pei Mingxia's brother, was able to remain calm, especially when Pei Mingxia later wrongly accused Pei's father and mother. This is very problematic.

Pei's father and mother's attitude was also very strange. They cared so much about their daughter, but they saw their son directly ignoring her and being very cold. His attitude was even worse than Pei Mingxia's husband's attitude towards Pei Ji'an.

In addition, Pei Jianan had said before that he was also a country bumpkin, so Lu Nong couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that Pei Jianan was not the biological son of Pei's father and mother?

That’s not right. Pei Zheng looks a lot like his grandfather. Even his grandson looks like his grandfather, so the son must be his biological father.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't figure it out. At this moment, Pei's mother suddenly came over and said to Lu Nong, "You are the second son's new wife, right?"

Lu Nong was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses and said with a smile, "Yes, Mom, my name is Lu Nong, you can just call me Nongnong from now on."

The corner of Pei's mother's mouth twitched. She was a little uncomfortable with the style of her daughter-in-law, Lu Nong. The second son was so cold that he was almost a fairy, but he didn't expect to find a daughter-in-law who was so outgoing and familiar. Is this what they mean when people with completely different personalities live a happy life together?

No wonder Lao Er and Yi Mei can’t get along.

Thinking of her second son's previous daughter-in-law, Shen Yimei, Pei's mother sighed again. Yimei waited for the second son for so many years, but in the end she failed to warm his heart. Instead, she was snatched away by someone else halfway. I wonder how sad she must have been.

Considering this, although she knew that Lu Nong was right, people are close to each other in different ways. Yi Mei is the granddaughter of her and her husband's comrade-in-arms, and the child she watched grow up. She is much more important than Lu Nong, the daughter-in-law who came later in life.

If Yimei knew that she accepted the new bride so quickly, she would definitely be sad.

It's a debt. It's all because of the cold-hearted second brother. He is the one who let Yimei down. Until now, the two of them can't hold their heads up in front of Yimei and the Shen family.

Mother Pei's attitude towards Lu Nong visibly cooled. "Well, Xiao Lu, right? Take good care of Xiao Zheng and Lao Er in the future. You don't need to worry about us."

Lu Nong was completely confused. Why was this old lady so hot and cold all the time? And don't think she couldn't understand what he was saying. "Don't worry" simply means "stop bothering me".

Pei Ji'an, who was standing by, said calmly, "Since mom said so, you should stop bothering her in the future."

Lu Nong: “…” Good man, brother, can you just say it directly?

However, Pei Jian's revelation made things easier for Lu Nong. They were allies. She certainly didn't want to please a mother-in-law who didn't like her, so she nodded solemnly and said, "Don't worry, I won't bother my parents."

Mother Pei: “…” This couple is such a perfect match.

Pei Jinan's lips curled up slightly, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

Mother Pei was so angry that she had a headache, but she couldn't argue with Lu Nong. After all, she was the one who said that her daughter-in-law didn't need to worry about it. If she went back on her word, what kind of person would she be?

But after she said that, could her son and daughter-in-law just agree to it?

It really is something that cannot be tamed.

The bit of maternal kindness that had just risen in Pei's mother disappeared again.

In just a few sentences, everyone could see that Pei's mother was not satisfied with her new daughter-in-law, at least not as satisfied as the previous one. You know, until now Shen Yimei still often goes in and out of Pei's father and mother's house, and Pei's mother still treats her as a good daughter-in-law.

Pei Mingxia glanced at Lu Nong mockingly. Just as she was about to say something, the door of the emergency room opened and a doctor came out. He looked at the people and said, "Are you Song Qian's family members?"

"Yes, we are," Song Yeping quickly walked to the doctor and asked, "Doctor, how is my son?"

"We initially suspected arsenic poisoning. We performed an emergency gastric lavage on the child. We still need to observe the extent of the poisoning. You should go and complete the hospitalization procedures for him first." After speaking, the doctor nodded and left.

"What is arsenic poisoning? Why did Qianqian get arsenic poisoning?" Pei's mother asked in confusion.

"Arsenic trioxide, also known as arsenic." Song Yeping said this almost gritting his teeth. How vicious a person must be to give arsenic to a three-year-old child?

"Arsenic?!" Pei Mingxia's voice was shrill and piercing. "This is going to kill us Qianqian."

Soon, the food test results came out, and arsenic was detected in the milk powder.

Now we just have to wait to find Nanny Sun to confirm.

Song Qian was admitted to the ward. Lu Nong saw that his little face was pale and he was still in a coma. He felt so sorry for him.

If it was really Sister Sun who poisoned the child, then Pei Mingxia, the mother, cannot deny the blame, because she personally sent the poisoner to the child.

After a while, the doctor came in, and the Pei family quickly surrounded him, "Doctor, how is our child?"

The doctor took out the medical record, looked at it and said, "It's acute poisoning. Fortunately, he was sent here in time. After the poison is removed, he will stay in the hospital for two or three days for observation. If there is nothing serious, he can be discharged."

"By the way, don't buy low-quality milk powder in the future. This is the third case of a child suffering from arsenic poisoning from drinking low-quality milk powder in our hospital."

"What? Impossible?" Pei Mingxia was incredulous. "We buy the best quality milk powder at home."

Pei Mingxia paused when she spoke of this. Yes, their family always bought the best quality milk powder, so Qianqian had never had any problems drinking it.

But how come after Sister Sun came, the good milk powder turned into low-quality milk powder?

The answer is obvious.
