Chapter 851: Chapter 853: Forced to Stay
The villagers left, and at the entrance of Little Shitou’s house, only Shitou, his mother, Xiaoxiao’s family of three, and a pile of discarded items from the car remained.
In this situation, Little Shitou’s mother was full of self-blame. With Little Shitou’s support, she walked to Xiaoxiao and said apologetically, "Sister, I’m really sorry. I shouldn’t have let you stay, it caused trouble for you."
Xiaoxiao shook her head. This sister-in-law was indeed too kind. Because they stayed overnight, she and Little Shitou might be driven out of the village. "Sister-in-law, it’s not your fault. We wanted to stay, and the villagers’ illness was too coincidental."
"Sister-in-law, you don’t need to blame yourself. Once the doctor arrives and cures the villagers, our family of three can leave," Yang Ming also comforted her.
"Ah." But Shitou’s mother still sighed and said, "Sister, brother, if the doctor comes and there’s still no result, you should look for a chance to leave quietly. You can’t delay the child’s treatment."
"Sister-in-law!" Xiaoxiao was a bit moved. The villagers had just been pressing them aggressively as if they wanted to swallow them whole. Only this sister-in-law was thinking of them. How could they just leave quietly?
If their family of three really sneaked out, the villagers would definitely take it out on Shitou and his mother and drive them out of the village. "Sister-in-law, it’s not that bad yet. Let’s go inside and wait for news."
"Okay." Shitou’s mother nodded.
So they went into the yard, and Yang Ming moved the things thrown at the door inside. Shitou’s mother knew Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming would discuss the issue, so she considerately took Little Shitou back to their room.
Inside the house, only Xiaoxiao’s family of three remained. Once inside, Xiaoxiao checked if Little Liufu had wet himself or had a bowel movement.
The scene had just been so chaotic, yet Little Liufu surprisingly behaved very well and didn’t cry. Xiaoxiao thought, this child probably didn’t understand what was happening and was in a daze.
After tidying up Little Liufu, Xiaoxiao anxiously asked, "Hubby, did you get hit just now?"
"I’m fine. Besides, I’m a man; I can take a hit."
Hearing this, Xiaoxiao’s eyes welled up with tears. She was full of self-blame, "Hubby, it’s all my fault. If I hadn’t suggested staying the night, we wouldn’t be stuck here."
Yang Ming reached out to wipe his wife’s tears and comforted her, "Why cry? If it weren’t for your suggestion, how would we know about Divine Doctor Xue? This isn’t a big deal. Once everything is sorted, we can go find Divine Doctor Xue and our son will be saved."
"Yes." Yang Ming was right. They should be grateful they came to this village. However, "Hubby, what do you think is going on? Could it be an infectious disease? We won’t catch it, right?"
Xiaoxiao was very worried. What if it was an infectious disease? Infectious diseases are serious and require isolation. Then they would be even more trapped, and she feared that her family of three could catch it.
"Don’t scare yourself. It might not be an infectious disease. Maybe the villagers accidentally touched something, causing the rash. We haven’t left this yard, so we’ll know when the doctor comes." Although Yang Ming was also worried, he tried to comfort his wife by any means.
"Okay."
"Wife, don’t overthink it. Let’s focus on taking good care of our son and be ready. When the doctor arrives, we’ll have news."
