Yu Changle and Li Mei were both shocked when they heard the sound, and rushed over to help Yu Changxi.
When the man outside the window, his face covered with tears and snot, saw Li Mei, he immediately slapped the glass:
"Plum! Plum! Help! Help!"
"sister in law?!"
Li Mei's face changed drastically. She recognized the voice of her sister-in-law at the first sound. She immediately dropped the things in her hands and rushed out. She supported her sister-in-law and asked eagerly:
"What's wrong? Didn't you say everything well? What happened again?"
Sister-in-law Li Mei cried so hard that her eyes were swollen and she couldn't open her eyes. She hugged Li Mei and kept shaking:
"Cui Cui...Cui Cui swallows her..."
Her voice was shaking as hard as her body, and was mixed with crying. Li Mei couldn't hear clearly and was too anxious:
"Please tell me clearly, what happened to Cuicui?! Wasn't she fine when I left?!"
Yu Changle felt bad when he saw this, and hurriedly followed Sister-in-law Li Mei out:
"Sister, tell me slowly, what happened?"
With Yu Changle's support, Sister-in-law Li Mei managed to steady her weak legs, and after taking a few breaths, she cried and said:
"Meizi, not long after you left, I saw that Cuicui seemed to have heard it and stopped crying and making trouble. I just wanted to cook a bowl of noodles for her. Who knows..."
"Who would have known that after I cooked the noodles and brought them in, I saw her lying on the bed motionless with her eyes closed, and holding an empty medicine bottle in her hand. She refused to answer no matter how hard I shouted..."
Hearing this, Yu Changle and Li Mei gasped: "She swallowed the medicine?!"
Sister-in-law Li Mei cried so much that she could no longer say a word and could only nod her head bitterly.
She was a miserable child. She lost her father at a young age. Her mother was uneducated and could only help others with chores to support her when she grew up. If Li Mei and her husband hadn't helped her from time to time, the life of an orphan and a widowed mother would have been terrible. I can't live any longer.
Although life was difficult, the mother kept in mind her children's father's instructions before he died, lived frugally and never let her children miss a day of school.
The children also lived up to expectations, and their grades have always been very good. They studied until they graduated from high school. After that, they refused to study anymore and had to work to earn money to support the family.
She knew that it was because the child was worried about her poor health that she came up with the idea of taking on the burden of the family. In addition, the child had his own ideas when he was older, so she couldn't persuade her even if she wanted to.
But she never expected that a day that she thought would be a happy ending would step directly into the abyss of hell!
Li Mei's throat was dry: "Where is he now? Has he been sent to the hospital?"
Sister-in-law Li Mei's eyes were filled with confusion: "I...I don't know what to do. You...you said something happened...to come here to find you, I... ..”
After hearing what she said, Yu Changle did not dare to delay any longer and grabbed Li Mei:
"Sister-in-law, hurry up, where is her home? Go and save her!"
Li Mei's face turned red and she left her sister-in-law alone and ran towards Tonghua Alley.
Yu Changle asked Yu Changxi to take care of her sister-in-law, and then chased her out.
Without taking a breath, he followed Li Mei into a small alley. A rusty door sign at the entrance of the alley had the words "Tonghua Hutong" written on it. Yu Changle's heart suddenly sank.
Could it be that relatives of Li Mei's family are...
She didn't have time to think too much, and ran with Li Mei into a dilapidated courtyard in the deepest part of the alley. The door was wide open. It seemed that Li Mei's sister-in-law had panicked and had not had time to close it.
It felt dark as soon as I entered the room. The dilapidated room was empty, without any decent furniture. The weak light from the only light bulb in the house was not enough to illuminate the entire room.
Li Mei rushed directly into the inner room, and then let out a exclamation.
Yu Changle followed up and took a look. He also gasped. Lying on the bed was a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old. She was already turning blue and foaming at the mouth.
"Quick! Sister-in-law! Lift it up and take it to the hospital!"
If it was discovered that she had swallowed the medicine at the first time, he could immediately inject water to induce vomiting and then send her to the hospital. But now that she was delayed by Li Mei's sister-in-law, Yu Changle did not dare to waste any more time and had to send her to the hospital immediately for rescue.
She rushed over and lifted the girl's upper body. Li Mei immediately followed and lifted her feet, and the two of them worked together to lift the girl out of the house.
By the time the two men carried the person out, the commotion at Li Mei's house had already alarmed the neighbors. People were pointing and talking outside her yard.
Yu Changle felt that carrying her and Li Mei to the hospital was not an option, so she shouted:
"Who has a trolley? Borrow it and take people to the hospital!"
I shouted several times, and although people around me were whispering to each other, no one answered.
Li Mei was so anxious that she burst into tears: "Please, please send the child to the hospital as soon as possible. If it is later, it will be too late!"
Suddenly a woman whispered in the crowd: "Whoever is willing to send someone to death in a car would not be unlucky!"
Although the others did not speak, the expressions on their faces seemed to agree with what the woman said. No one wanted to get into the bad luck of a dead person.
Li Mei was so angry that she wanted to give the woman a slap in the face, but she had no choice but to spit at her:
"Which of your eyes saw my niece die?! Those who refuse to save will have their retribution sooner or later!"
Yu Changle was also filled with anger. Seeing that no one was helping, she stopped delaying and chose to continue carrying Cuicui to the alley entrance to see if she could stop a car on the road.
She has no time to argue with these cold-blooded people. There is a line in later generations that goes well: helping you is a matter of love, but not helping you is a duty. She will not scold these people like Li Mei, but I also look down on such people in my heart, and don't bother to say a word to such people.
Just as the two of them were carrying Cuicui out with difficulty, a young man's voice suddenly came from behind:
"Put people in the car! I'll take you there!"
The two of them turned around in surprise, only to see a 17- or 18-year-old man chasing after them pushing an old cart.
Behind him, the woman who just said Cuicui was a dead person was chasing and cursing: "Chen Laoer, are you going to die? Come back to me quickly! Otherwise, when your brother comes back, I will ask him to beat you to death!"
The man ignored the woman's scolding and instead accelerated his pace to catch up with Yu Changle and the other two:
"Quick! Put the people up!"
Without saying a word, Yu Changle and Li Mei immediately put the unconscious Cuicui on the cart, and then pushed the cart with the man and ran forward as hard as they could.
Even though the woman chased him for a long time, she still couldn't catch up.
With the combined efforts of the three of them, it took less than twenty minutes to reach the hospital entrance.
Yu Changle and Li Mei were gasping for breath, but the young man picked up Cuicui and rushed into the hospital door.
While running, he shouted loudly: "Doctor! Help! Doctor!"
The doctors and nurses in the emergency department ran out when they heard the noise. When they saw Cuicui's condition, they immediately brought a stretcher over.
Yu Changle just took a breath and hurriedly followed her. She took out the medicine bottle that Cuicui held in her hand from her pocket. This was the key to saving her life!
