Chapter 235 The Sound of Gongs



"Brother Mingqing, thank goodness you came back quickly, otherwise Xiaolan would have cried in the yard."

"Hongbin and I rushed back immediately after the acupuncture."

"Are you sure everything is alright?"

"It's okay, it's just a small blood clot in the brain. If it were bigger, I might need surgery, but now it only needs acupuncture and it will heal."

"It seems that going up the mountain is really dangerous. I need to warn those kids next door."

Li Mingqing smiled and said, "The child is very flexible, it's okay."

Every child in the village grew up running in the mountains.

Although it is at the foot of the mountain and halfway up the mountain, it is not flat, so I practiced it.

Old Mrs. Li brought over a handful of chestnuts.

"I went to the mountains today and picked up some chestnuts. I'll give them to you to try."

"Mom, come and sit for a while."

"What are you two talking about in private?"

"Nothing, Brother Mingqing and the team leader are going to the county town for a meeting tomorrow."

Mrs. Li immediately became very energetic and asked, "Really? You are really promising."

She felt that she was much more powerful than the team leader and the village chief.

"Mom, I've never been unsuccessful. I'm just waiting to enjoy happiness."

"That's great! The Li family has enjoyed so much good fortune thanks to you. Your sister-in-law and the others were just saying that if it weren't for you, even eating wouldn't be easy at home."

"Mom, Jiaxue is at home, please take her for walks more often."

"You usually love your wife like the apple of your eye, but why do you want her to walk more now that her belly is big?"

"More activity is good for children and pregnant women."

Mrs. Li finally reacted and said:

"You're right. The more you move, the faster you'll live."

The family was chatting happily when they heard the sound of gongs coming from outside.

This is the sound that only occurs when working.

How could there be the sound of gongs when it was getting dark?

When Li Mingqing came out, he saw the village chief standing in the middle of the road beating a gong, with a flustered Qin Chenglan standing next to him.

"Dear fellow villagers, has anyone found Tiezhu's child?"

Zhang Tiezhu said hurriedly, "The child was placed on the kang, and disappeared while my wife was cooking."

Qin Chenglan cried so hard that she was out of breath and about to faint.

The child must have been taken away not long after he was born.

An old woman said, "I have been at the entrance of the village and have never seen a stranger enter."

That must be something immoral done by the villagers.

Li Mingqing subconsciously thought of Old Lady Zhang.

No one except her would harm a child. She kept saying that the child was here to bring bad luck to her, and it was unknown whether he was secretly plotting against her.

He stepped forward and said, "Tiezhu, go to Old Bachelor Li's house first."

Zhang Tiezhu was so flustered when he first arrived that he didn't think about it. When he heard this, he ran to the house of Li Laogun.

Qin Chenglan was stunned for two or three seconds and then collapsed to the ground.

If I were really taken away by Old Lady Zhang, it would be very dangerous.

Sun Jiaxue comforted her, "Sister-in-law, get up quickly. The child will be fine."

She helped Qin Chenglan up and went to find Old Lady Zhang.

"Open the door!"

"Old bachelor! Are you at home?"

"Hurry up and open the door! If you don't open it, they'll break in!"

After waiting for more than ten seconds and still seeing no movement, I climbed over the wall and went in.

The yard of Mr. Li’s house is built with stones, which is neither too high nor too low.

Just as Zhang Tiezhu was about to jump over the wall, he saw Old Lady Zhang coming out of the house.

"What are you doing? You're bullying me because I'm home alone!"

"Where's the child?"

"What kid, I don't know what you're talking about."

"Don't be so pretentious. Did you take the child away?"

"Bullshit, you really think your own child is so precious? Who cares?"

Qin Chenglan rushed into the house like a madman.

"Child, my child,"

"You can't go in. This is my house. Who let you in?"

Zhang Tiezhu pulled Mrs. Zhang without hesitation, and Qin Chenglan took the opportunity to enter the house.

After a few seconds, Qin Chenglan came out holding the wet child.

"Son, mother is here. Open your eyes and look at her."

With all the evidence, it would be useless even if Old Lady Zhang had ten mouths.

The village chief shouted: "What's going on!"

"Uncle, when I went in, the child's head was submerged in the basin!"

The villagers who came to watch the fun gasped.

It's so scary.

He went to great lengths to steal the child out, and when he came back he drowned the child in a basin, clearly intending to harm him.

Looking at the child's pale face, I was afraid that he was in great danger.

Zhang Tiezhu loosened his grip on Zhang's wife's clothes and went over to look at the child who seemed to have lost all spirit.

Others also thought that the child might have been reincarnated.

Li Mingqing saw this scene as soon as he arrived. He went over and gave the child two injections.

Then he lifted the child's legs and turned him upside down.

In less than a minute, the child spit out a little water.

He put the child on the table, and then a lot of silver needles were inserted into the child's body.

Everyone held their breath.

Even Zhang Tiezhu and Qin Chenglan were waiting quietly.

Only Old Lady Zhang laughed maniacally and said, "Don't be delusional. This child has already gone to hell. He shouldn't be alive!"

Crazy.

It's crazy.

Qin Chenglan ran over and slapped her twice.

Although she is usually gentle and calm, she actually did such a cruel thing to a child. As the child's mother, how could she tolerate it!

The village chief said, "How could Mrs. Zhang do such a thing? The child is innocent."

"Innocent as hell! He's unlucky for me. The fortune teller said I'll have a hard time living with him around for the rest of my life."

"You believe what the witch says!"
