Chapter 56 Li Dan



After feeding Pan Yumei the medicine, Mrs. Liu came out and said that her daughter-in-law wanted to thank Su Li in person, but was afraid that she would pass on her illness to her, so she disappeared and asked her not to mind.

"It's okay, Auntie. It's okay. I've almost finished drinking the water, so I'll leave first. Please stay. There's no need to see me off." Su Li stood up and walked out.

"That won't do! I'll take you there." He said and followed Su Li out.

"That's really not necessary, Auntie. I'll just ride my bike back. You should go back and take care of my sister-in-law and Xiaodong."

"Hey! Thank you so much, my girl."

"It's okay, ma'am. I'll leave first."

Su Liqian reached the door and looked back. Mrs. Liu was still waving at her at the door of the main room.

Su Li also waved her hand, unlocked the bicycle lock, took two steps forward and stood still.

The north wind was howling, the yard was dilapidated, there were old men in their twilight years, a seriously ill woman and a young child, it was a bit hard for Su Li to just leave them like that.

She secretly sighed, Su Li! Su Li! You may have to be a saint.

He parked the car, took out 50 kilograms of flour, 20 kilograms of rice, 30 kilograms of whole grain flour, 10 kilograms of pork, a bag of apples and a bag of fruit candy from the space, along with the two pieces of cloth he bought from Mrs. Liu, and carried the large and small bags into the yard, put them on the ground in the yard, and then ran into the main room.

She called out, "Auntie, Auntie, I'm Xiaoli. I brought you some things and put them in the yard. Go and pick them up."

After shouting, he ran away.

Granny Liu brought Xiaodong out and vaguely saw something on the ground. Xiaodong ran over to take a look and was startled. "Grandma, grandma, it's food. There's meat, sugar, and flour. Aunt Su gave it to me. And there's cloth woven by our family."

Granny Liu was startled and hurried to the door, "Quick, Xiaodong, stop your Aunt Su, we can't take these things."

Xiaodong ran towards Su Li for a while and then ran back, "Grandma, Aunt Su rides too fast, I can't catch up."

"Oh! How lucky I am! To meet such a kind person. These things are so precious! We have to eat them together." As he said this, he raised his sleeves to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"Grandma, don't cry."

"Well! Good boy, if you can meet your Aunt Su again in the future, you might stop her. She has her own reward. We can't take her things for nothing. We have to repay her."

"I know, Grandma."

The grandparents took the things back to the room. Pan Yumei also gave Xiaodong some advice, asking him to be a grateful and sensible person.

Su Li didn't know all this. She rode her bicycle with all her might. Because the sun was a little strong and the ice on the road had thawed, the dirt road was very muddy, making it very difficult to ride a bicycle. But she couldn't get off the bicycle, otherwise her shoes would be covered in mud. She had no choice but to ride as hard as she could.

After about an hour, Su Li was exhausted, so she found a place to park the car, got out and sat on a rock by the roadside to rest.

It was noon and there was no one on the road, so Su Li simply put her bicycle into the space and went in to prepare for lunch.

Although it was cold outside, this space was like spring all year round. She first went to the orchard to pick a peach to eat, and then went to the department store to eat a bowl of snail noodles, fried eggs, duck feet and pig's trotters. Su Li was particularly satisfied with the spicy snail noodles, and she drank a cup of milk tea.

After washing up and catching up on some TV series, I started again.

Because she had been dozing off for a while after being in the space, it was a little late when she returned home. When Su Li was riding home, snowflakes were already floating in the sky, and there was a tendency for them to get bigger and bigger. She was very close to Shanghe Village, and she put all the houses she had taken from the space on her bicycle.

I brought two pairs of thick cotton shoes, a pair of velvet leather shoes, two sets of autumn clothes and underwear from this era for Xie Zhengchuan, a set of picture books, pencils and notebooks for Tiedan, a red hairband and hairpin for Baoya, and facial oil.

Several children wore scarves, hats, gloves, socks, and of course he and Xie Zhengchuan wore them.

Oranges, pears, canned cakes, white flour, rice, vermicelli, and various dry goods, both sides of the back seat of the bicycle were piled with things.

On a winter night, when night fell early, Su Li was almost home on her bike when she saw a dark shadow at the door. She was a little far away and thought she was seeing things.

When they got closer, they saw that it was a child lying at the door of their house, motionless, with some snow on his body.

Su Li quickly stopped the car, ran over to turn the person over, and was shocked when he saw him.

It was Li Dan, and Li Dan was injured. He was frozen, his fingers were stiff, and his lips were pale. Su Li pried open his lips and dripped the spiritual spring water from her fingertips into his mouth.

After her lips turned a little snowy, she felt like shouting towards home, "Xie Zhengchuan, Xie Chuan~ Come out quickly."

After shouting a few times but no one answered, he picked up a stone at hand and smashed the door.

Xie Zhengchuan enjoyed parent-child time all day long, and his relationship with the children grew rapidly. His temper almost allowed Hu Zi to take advantage of him.

At this moment, he was teaching Tiedan how to play chess when he suddenly heard a "bang".

I quickly put on my clothes and went out to see.

After he left, Hu Zi quietly moved his chessboard, then pretended nothing had happened and continued to play his iron frog. Of course, the other children pretended not to see it.

After Xie Zhengchuan opened the door, he saw Su Li holding a child with difficulty, and ran over to take it.

"What's going on, this... this is Li Dan, what's wrong with this kid?"

"What's wrong? What's wrong? What happened?" Xie Zhengyang and Xie Zhenghe also came out. They also ran out after hearing the bang from the third brother's house.

Su Li pushed the bicycle and said, "I don't know, I just got home and saw him lying on the doorstep. Hurry up and bring him in to warm him up, don't let him get frozen."

Xie Zhengchuan hurriedly carried Li Dan into the house, took off his shoes, put him on the kang, and covered him with a quilt.

Xie Zhengyang and Xie Zhenghe also followed.

The children were terrified. As they were playing, they saw their father coming in carrying Li Dan. Li Dan had a wound on his face and was lying motionless.

Tiedan was especially scared because he had seen his mother leave. At that time, his mother was pale and motionless. The little guy was frightened and burst into tears.

Xie Zhengchuan covered Li Dan and touched Tie Dan's head, "Don't worry, Li Dan is fine."

After Su Li brought the things from the car to the main room, she didn't have time to tidy them up, so she hurried to the kitchen to prepare a pot of ginger tea with spiritual spring water.

Perhaps it was because the room was warmer, Li Dan's face gradually turned red, but he still did not wake up.

Su Li boiled some ginger tea, added some brown sugar and brought it over to Xie Zhengchuan to feed him, "Feed him some ginger tea to drive away the cold first, I'll go boil some hot water for him to wash his hands and feet."

Xie Zhengchuan took the ginger tea and said, "Brother, this child has injuries on his body. He might have been beaten. He is standing in front of our house. It's hard to explain. One of you go inform the village chief, and the other go find Xie Sanwan and ask them to come over."

"Hey!

"I'll go right away. How can you beat a child like this? It's so pitiful."

Su Li boiled some hot water and began to wash Li Dan's face and hands. The little kid had a big bruise on his forehead and his face was swollen. The slap marks on it were very glaring. Su Li was very careful when wiping his face.

Xie Zhengchuan took off Li Dan's clothes. He was skinny and his ribs were visible to the naked eye. There were also many wounds on his body. It was obvious that he was often abused.

Several children were crying when they saw this. They knew that Li Dan was often bullied. Xie Guangqing and Xie Guangfa from Xie Sanwan's family often beat him. They wanted to beat up the two men several times, but Li Dan would not let them. He said that Xie Guangqing and Xie Guangfa were older than them and would resort to ruthless tactics.

Baoya tugged at Tiedan's clothes, "Mom, I'm scared, I'm scared, woooo~"

Su Li helped Li Dan change Tie Dan's clothes, then handed him to Xie Zhengchuan. She turned around to comfort the children, and held Bao Ya in her arms.

"Don't be afraid, baby, be good! This is a fight between bad guys. I'll let daddy beat the bad guys later."

Xie Zhengchuan held Li Dan, who was changing his clothes, and put his feet in hot water with ginger slices, "Yes, Dad will go beat the bad guys later."

Seeing the scars on Li Dan's body, Su Li cursed in her heart. That son of a bitch was so cruel to her child, and she wasn't afraid of being struck by thunder. What a beast, a complete beast.

Su Li was cursing in her heart when suddenly a man's curse was heard in the yard.

"You son of a bitch, all you do is run around all day, you're an ungrateful bastard, bah."
