Chapter 4 The night is so beautiful, the child fell into the water
"Grandma was so angry with you that she fell ill. They thought you were going to find the second son. The Duan family all chased the second son to his unit."
"It was so ugly that my uncle almost broke Fen'er's legs."
"Now Fen'er is getting married to Duan. Grandma means that we have to pay for the dowry, and she also wants you to kowtow to your eldest uncle and auntie to apologize."
Ao Qing's face suddenly darkened, the noodles in her mouth no longer tasted delicious, and she suddenly raised her head to look at her elder brother.
"No, they want to harm me, and they want us to pay compensation?"
Lan Lan glanced at Ao Hai, smiled and added: "Qingqing, your brother has discussed this matter with me. I think we can spend money to eliminate the disaster."
"Besides, if you stay here from now on, your uncle and his family will still have to take care of the elderly at home, and they will also have to take care of the house left by your parents."
"After all, they are relatives. After breaking the bones and connecting the tendons, when your grandma is gone, we will not interact with each other in the future."
Hearing these words made Ao Qing feel uncomfortable in her heart, and she couldn't help but look at Lan Lan twice.
"My brother's living expenses were all given to them. Even the things my parents left behind were barely left at home."
"They have completely wiped out our family and they want to use me to exchange money for her son's marriage. Now they are making it so that we owe them?"
Ao Qing poked the bowl with her chopsticks, and the fire burned to her heart.
She is not worth replacing the original owner.
Her uncle is not an uncle at all, he is just a blood-sucking insect!
Ao Hai frowned when he saw the girl's tearful appearance.
Look at her wrists exposed from her sleeves, they are frighteningly thin.
Lan Lan is about two or three years old, and she can still see flesh on her face, but his girl is so thin that her cheeks are almost sunken, and her shirt looks like she is flying a kite, so you can imagine how thin she has become.
"Qingqing, don't be anxious. If you don't want to give it, don't give it. I'll call your second brother later and let him know. As for the uncle and the Duan family harming you, I will keep it in mind and will definitely help you.
You take it out."
Hearing Ao Hai's words, which were different from what they had discussed before, Lan Lan glanced at him in surprise, frowned slightly, and said nothing in a sensible manner.
"Brother, I thought about it on the way here. I want to stay here and look for a job." Ao Qing sniffed and glanced at Lan Lan quietly.
"I'm not afraid of hardship. No matter how hard I work, it's better than selling me to a fool as their wife. Now I only have you and my second brother to rely on, ugh..."
Seeing the girl crying so sadly, Ao Hai felt so weak.
"Don't worry, as big brother is here, no one can force you." Ao Hai reached out and rubbed his sister's head.
"Don't worry about work. You only attended elementary school for three years. Although there is no problem with your literacy, you are still a little behind when it comes to finding a job here. After you settle down, I will find a teacher for you to make up for your lessons first."
"No, I can learn by myself by reading a book." Ao Qing subconsciously refused.
Just kidding, she is just one step away from graduating with a doctorate, so she is just as good as a teacher.
In her eldest brother's social circle, who can be her teacher?
Ao Hai wanted to persuade him, but when Lan Lan poked his waist gently, he changed his mind.
"Then let's read the book first. If we need a teacher later, we can find him in time."
After seeing off her eldest brother and Sister Lan, Ao Qing decided to go out for a walk.
Sister Lan just told her that if you turn out of the alley next to your unit, you can reach the beach in less than five minutes.
However, the beach here is not as soft as the scenic area, it is more primitive and the gravel is coarser...
Women and children from the family area would occasionally come here to catch the sea.
Generally speaking, the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month are the most suitable times to catch the sea. These two days are high tides, so you will gain more.
You can also catch the sea in normal times, but the entertainment nature is more intense.
When she came out, many people were carrying buckets and walking back, especially children. They walked in groups and competed with each other for harvest.
The moonlight is good tonight, the wind and waves are not big, and the full moon is reflected on the sea, which is very similar to the artistic conception of "the bright moon on the sea rises with the tide".
Ao Qing sat down cross-legged and hummed a tune. Just as he was thinking about Wen Qing, he was startled by the sudden voice.
"Quickly, close the net quickly. Oh, be careful, Oops, I fell!"
Listening to the voice, the person speaking is still a child.
Ao Qing's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly looked over to see two or three black figures moving not far from her.
"Brother, brother, I can't hold you back anymore."
Mazu comes again, and there is a little girl!
Ao Qing didn't dare to wait and see anymore and slid down from the other side.
"What are you guys doing? You stay up late at night and come here to cast your net, so be careful not to fall into the sea."
She made a sound while still some distance away, fearing that the sound would be too sudden and frighten the children into the water.
But as soon as she finished speaking, she heard a plop, and then the little girl cried "Wow".
"Brother, brother, where are you? I'm afraid..."
Then another child's voice followed, "Don't be afraid Jiaojiao, your brother is very good at water. He must have discovered something good. Let's wait a moment."
Ao Qing jumped over in twos and threes, just in time to hear the last sentence.
Fortunately, this is not her cub, otherwise I would have given him a flower in his ass!
Without saying anything else, Ao Qing jumped into the water and barely searched for the child in the water with her eyes open.
Three or four meters below the water, a child got tangled in the fishing net and was sinking rapidly.
Ao Qing raised her head, took a breath, and chased after him, holding the fruit knife she took out of her pocket in her hand.
Fortunately, the fishing nets used by these children were not particularly strong, and adults are stronger than children, and Ao Qing also has rich experience in underwater rescue.
In a very short time, she cut the net rope and floated to the surface with the unconscious child.
As soon as he put the person on the rock, Ao Qing started to give first aid without stopping.
"Send one of you to the Coast Guard branch to call for someone to come. Just say that someone has fallen into the water and is dying."
The little girl was so frightened that she cried. Although the other little boy's hands and feet were frightened, he could still move.
After hearing Ao Qing's words, she rolled and crawled towards the shore.
I fell down several times along the way and didn't dare to stop even though my legs and hands were scratched.
By the time the child called him over, Ao Qing's hands were so weak that she couldn't lift them up.
Fortunately, the child who fell into the water was breathing and conscious.
After a period of chaos, the children's parents also rushed to the hospital infirmary after hearing the news.
Ao Qing sat wet on a chair in the corridor, wrapped in a sheet provided by the medical room.
Seeing Ao Hai running over in a hurry, she reluctantly smiled, tilted her head, and fell into her brother's arms.
When she fell down, Ao Hai was frightened. "Qingqing, Qingqing, what's wrong with you? Where are you injured?"
Ao Hai panicked and almost pulled off the girl's clothes to check the situation.
Finally, a passing nurse took a look and said that Ao Qing had fainted from exhaustion and would be fine when she woke up.
Only then did Ao Hai's heart rise in his throat and return to its original place.
Lan Lan came slower and helped Ao Qing change her clothes before whispering about the situation.
"On the way here, I met the sister-in-law of the chief of staff's family. She said that the two children who caused the trouble were the two children of instructor Luo's family and the boy of the line leader's family.
"Three little guys went fishing for moray eels at night and picked up a rotten fishing net on the road. They wanted to imitate adults and cast a net to catch fish."
"The net was too bad, with too many threads. Instructor Luo's eldest son's feet got tangled up in the threads and he was dragged into the water. Fortunately, your sister heard the noise, otherwise..."
Lan Lan raised her hand to touch her chest and took a few deep breaths. She was almost frightened just by listening to what her sister-in-law said. If this was her own child, she might not even have the strength to stand here.
Ao Hai also looked scared.
"Didn't Instructor Luo plan to send the two children back to their hometown?" Ao Hai asked doubtfully.
"Instructor Luo's mother fell down last month and fractured her calf. She is unable to help him take care of his children. You also know about his family's situation and you are not willing to help him."
"By the way, you go to the instructor's house first to see if you can help. I'll guard Qingqing here."
Lan Lan pushed Ao Hai out, pulled out a chair, sat down against the head of the bed, and took a towel to wipe Ao Qing's hair.
Ao Qing woke up after not sleeping for long. When she woke up, she felt that her scalp hurt.
Lan Lan stopped her hand from scratching, "You fell asleep without washing it with fresh water. I'll just wipe it for you. I'll wash it and dry it after I go back."
"If you scratch it like this now, the salt will damage your scalp."
After saying that, Lan Lan went back with Ao Qing to finish cleaning up. It was almost dawn before they went to bed, so Lan Lan simply shared a bed with Ao Qing.
