Chapter 160 Scheming and Calculating (9)_1
Upon hearing she might have to serve jail time, Liu Mei shuddered in fear.
"Moreover, the child has several cuts on his head which the health clinic’s facilities can’t properly treat. You must take him to the town hospital immediately, or if it gets infected, things will be even more troublesome," Doctor Lu added.
Not even wanting to send him to the health clinic, Liu Mei was even more reluctant to take him to the hospital and immediately refused, "No need, this child is tough..."
"Liu Mei, are you not afraid of being struck by lightning for saying such things?" the Ruanlin Family roared in anger, furious to the point of death. She stepped forward and grabbed Liu Mei’s arm, saying, "You must go to the hospital with us right now!"
"I don’t want to, I’m not going!" Liu Mei backed away hastily. Going to the hospital would cost at least fifty yuan. How could she spend that much money on such a worthless child, wasn’t that like cutting her own flesh?
"Mom, let’s go first." Meanwhile, Ruan Jianguo had already picked up the roughly bandaged Xiu Xi and said to the Ruanlin Family.
The Ruanlin Family glared at Liu Mei with venomous eyes, knowing they couldn’t delay any longer and needed to get to the hospital immediately. Despite wanting to beat Liu Mei, the poisonous woman, to death, she knew this wasn’t the time to get entangled. She turned around, took Ruan Jiaojiao’s little hand, and stepped into the tricycle.
Ruan Jianguo was going to ride a bicycle, placing Xiu Xi in his arms. Clutching the light, frail body, the Ruanlin Family felt another surge of heartache.
Ruan Jiaojiao sat beside her, her little hand holding Xiu Xi’s unknowingly. And Xiu Xi, still unconscious, seemed to feel her presence. The hand she was holding moved slightly and gripped a bit tighter.
Knowing he was still conscious, Ruan Jiaojiao felt her tightly wound heart finally relax a bit en route.
Upon arrival at the hospital, they rushed to the emergency room and went through round after round of bandaging... After a series of examinations, it was already noon. Fortunately, that morning the Ruanlin Family had instructed several kind neighbours to help prepare a meal at their home.
