Chapter 154: Chapter 154: At a Complete Loss

The woman who had just asked the question spoke up, "Can’t blame her, now that there’s no one to earn work points, it’s no wonder she’s making a fuss. Could Gao Taohua have done this on purpose? She didn’t twist her ankle earlier or later, but just now,

does she not want to earn work points for her parents’ household anymore, or is she looking down on the match her mother has arranged for her? Seems like she doesn’t want to get married."

A woman close to Li Xiulan said, "Come on, stop spouting nonsense; everything turns into a story when it comes through your mouths. Taohua just twisted her ankle accidentally while delivering something. Look at what you’ve turned it into?

We’re all from the same village, and we all have kids. Watch your words, and be a bit kind. Taohua is about to get married, and if your words get out, won’t that be harming her?"

For a moment, everyone there fell silent, and the atmosphere grew somewhat awkward.

Just then, from the Sun Family’s courtyard, Kong Yuru’s cries suddenly burst forth, and it was like a performance that jumped from one family’s stage to another’s. The commune members waiting by the river for their work assignments swarmed in front of the Sun Family’s gate.

Kong Yuru rushed out, cradling her son, Sun Shengyuan, and headed towards the health clinic.

Doctor Gao had just opened the door and was talking with a few commune members when he saw Kong Yuru rush in with her child in a flurry," Doctor Gao, please check Shengyuan; what’s wrong with him?"

Doctor Gao hurried over and saw that the child’s fever was severe and the pus-filled area on his arm had worsened, with a small spot swelling up, likely filled with pus.

After examining him, Doctor Gao said with some irritation, "Didn’t I tell you that the antibiotics must be taken, and you can’t let him play in the water anymore? Do you not want him to get better?

Better send him to the commune health center. I can’t handle this now; the infection on his arm has become like this, and he’s running a high fever now. Look at the swelling on his arm; don’t delay treatment for the child."

After hearing this, Kong Yuru became utterly frantic, as due to Stone’s incident, the big and third branches of the family had fallen out with the second branch. Kong Yuru was in a difficult position with her husband away from home, so she had to ask someone nearby to inform her mother-in-law.

Grandma Sun was heartbroken for her grandson. After she heard the messenger’s words, she quickly asked her eldest son and his wife to come over and accompany them to the commune health center.

When Grandma Sun arrived, she found out from Sun Shengyuan’s little sister that he had not taken any of the antibiotics. His mother had said the medicine was expensive and told her brother to drink more water, and if his arm got better, they could get Doctor Gao to refund the medicine.

Hearing her granddaughter’s words, Old Lady Sun became furious. She believed Kong Yuru wanted to harm her grandson. Kong Yuru intended to save up money to move to the city, thinking that if Stone could get better after such a severe incident, nothing serious could happen from just a burn on her son’s arm.

Doctor Gao gave them the antibiotics, but Sun Shengyuan didn’t want to take them, and his mother let it be, hoping to get a refund if the medicine wasn’t used.

Now look what’s happened. The infection on his arm has led to a high fever. When they reached the township health center, they found out that the doctors were all away at a conference in the county, and the on-duty doctor was a newcomer.

Seeing how serious Sun Shengyuan’s condition was, and the fact that he was a child, the new doctor, afraid of making a mistake with the medication, suggested they go to the county hospital. But there were no vehicles to the county at that hour. Just as they were leaving, they saw a bus heading to the city.

Since the city was even closer than the county, the Sun Family decided to take Sun Shengyuan to the city instead.

Luo Qiao figured that the results should be out in the next few days and planned to find time to visit the commune. She also wanted to chat with Teacher Ning about the school applications.
