Chapter 92: Medication (Update)
Yuan Xiao combed her hair and tied it up again, revealing her slender neck.
Gu Lanting reached out and stroked the red mark on her neck, and Yuan Xiao felt a slight sting.
"Come on, I'll take you back to apply medicine."
"No need, it will be healed soon."
It was just some broken skin, not a big deal.
She is now worried about Wang Yazhi and the others, and wants to go home to see them.
Gu Lanting forcefully pulled her, "Your family is fine, you can stay at my place until things are resolved in the next two days."
Yuan Xiao was stunned, "No need..."
"I've already talked to your mother, they will send you clothes later."
Yuan Xiao's mouth was slightly open. Did he arrange everything for her like this?
The two walked to the school gate, and Yuan Xiao got on the back seat of the bicycle.
"What's the situation now? Has the county sent people to Xiaxi Village to investigate?"
Gu Lanting held her hand and put it on his waist. "Professor Wen has sent people to the field to collect samples, but the analysis report will take a few days. Before the results come out, don't come to school."
"But you just asked someone to send them all to the Public Security Bureau. I'm afraid there will be public outrage."
Gu Lanting smiled and looked back at her. "Xiaoxiao, are you worried about me?"
Yuan Xiao rolled his eyes. "I caused this. How can I bother you?"
"I am happy to."
Yuan Xiao was stunned for a long time before realizing that his "I am happy" meant that he was happy to be bothered by her.
She tried to suppress the corners of her lips. Her heart felt as sweet as if it was soaked in honey water.
After riding the bicycle for about half an hour, the two stopped at a building.
They arrived at where Gu Lanting lived.
Unlike the high-rise buildings in later generations that are often dozens of floors high, the buildings in Qushui County are only three or four floors at most, and the orientation and lighting are very good.
"I thought you lived in the dormitory?" Yuan Xiao was surprised.
Gu Lanting led her upstairs, "Occasionally when I'm tired, I will sleep directly in the dormitory. Generally, I come back here."
His room is on the second floor, with two bedrooms and a living room, and simple decoration.
Unlike the slovenly house that Yuan Xiao imagined, this house is clean and tidy like Gu Lanting.
Gu Lanting took out a pair of light pink slippers from the shoe cabinet and put them at Yuan Xiao's feet.
Although Yuan Xiao's feet are chubby, they are small feet. She usually wears a size 36 which is slightly larger.
The pink slippers and the white jade-like feet complement each other, making her feet look even whiter and tenderer.
Gu Lanting's eyes darkened slightly, and his throat rolled. He had an urge to hold this ball of white jade in his hands and play with it.
Yuan Xiao didn't see his expression, walked to the sofa and put down his schoolbag, "Is there any water?"
Gu Lanting woke up as if from a dream, "Yes, I'll make it for you."
Yuan Xiao watched him busy in the kitchen, and couldn't help but sigh that Gu Lanting was really rich.
It is difficult for ordinary people to even have electricity, but Gu Lanting's house not only has electricity, but also gas, and there is a small refrigerator next to it.
At this time, refrigerators were basically imported, and you might not have a channel to buy one.
When Gu Lanting came out, he saw Yuanxiao fiddling with the refrigerator and said with a smile, "If you like it, I'll move it to you someday."
Yuanxiao let go of his hand, "No need, do you have a channel to buy a refrigerator? If you can, buy one for me."
"Okay, I'll keep an eye out for you."
Gu Lanting made her a cup of tea, with a few stretched tea leaves floating in the water, the fragrance was refreshing.

It was a dark and windy night in Xiaxi Village.
"Brother Tian, is this the house?"
Brother Tian took off the cigarette from his lips and patted his head. "This is my first time here too, how should I know!"
"Then I'll go knock on the door now!"
Brother Tian slapped him again. "Are you stupid? You're a thief and you still knock on the door?"
"Monkey, take the ladder, let's climb up."
Monkey took the ladder and frowned. "Brother Tian, he already owed us money, why are we still stealing?"
Brother Tian put out his cigarette. "I've been looking for him for so long, and all I want is a hundred yuan!"
Monkey said, stepped on the ladder and climbed up.
After the group sat on the wall, the monkey pointed to the edge of the field: "Brother Tian, there are another group of thieves over there!"
Brother Tian squinted his eyes and looked, "Where are they?"
"Over there, at the edge of the field, those thieves look sneaky, and they're even turning on the lights."
Brother Tian spat, "Bring up the ladder, don't worry about them, they might be stealing watermelons!"
The monkey brought up the ladder, but it was too heavy, and he didn't use it properly for a while. Not only did the ladder fail to come up, but the monkey himself fell down.
With a bang,
Brother Tian thought it was not good, and he jumped down by grabbing the top of the wall. Suddenly, he heard a scream: "There are thieves! Catch the thieves!"
"Brother Tian, my leg is broken!" The monkey was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat and kept shouting for help.
Brother Tian covered the monkey's mouth and cursed, "Stop shouting, you've called everyone over!"
Seeing that oil lamps were lit in every household, Brother Tian put the monkey down and shouted, "Catch the thief! Someone is stealing watermelons in the field! Everyone, come out and catch the thief!"
His voice was full of energy and echoed throughout the field.
The villagers usually had some quarrels, but when it came to catching thieves, they were surprisingly united.
Men from every household put on their clothes and rushed out with hoes to catch thieves.
"Where is it?"
"In the field, someone is stealing watermelons!"
"Hurry, everyone, go over!"
Someone asked confusedly, scratching his head, "Where are the watermelons grown in our village?"
But his voice was too soft and was drowned out by the chaotic noise.
Brother Tian took advantage of this chaotic moment and dragged the monkey away quietly.
When Lian Yicai came out of the room and saw that everyone was heading to the fields, she was filled with despair.
It's over!
It was He Dacheng who had drugged the fields.
It's over.
He Dacheng was so powerful in drugging that he didn't even notice the villagers coming over here, and was caught on the spot.
"Dacheng? What are you doing here?"
The person who asked the question was the previous captain of the village, who had been in office for several terms and only took over after he retired.
The old captain was a prestigious person in the village and had done a lot of practical things for the village over the years.
He held up his reading glasses, squinted his eyes and looked at the medicine on the ground, and his mind reacted immediately.
He Dacheng's mind turned around for several times, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, he hesitated, and couldn't find the reason for his appearance here.
The old captain kicked him and said, "As the captain of the village, you have not brought any benefits to the village, but you want to harm the villagers!"
"He Dacheng! You are such a heartless thing, you actually put medicine in our fields!"
He Dacheng put strong pesticides. Usually, people only put a small cup of water to kill insects, but now he put a big bottle in the field. The crops are going to die!
"This can't be taken lightly, tie him up and send him to the police station!"
"You're a beast, you can do such a deceiving thing, you must be sent to the police station!"
"Come on, tie him up!"
