Reborn in the 60s and adopted

Tang Mei was so distraught that she had no time to care about her weak legs. She staggered and ran home like a gust of wind.

“Tang Mei!”

“Tang Mei!”

Two shouts came at the same time, from different directions, but equally anxious. The moment Tang Mei heard someone calling her name, she seemed to have found her long-lost soul, and a glimmer of light finally flashed in her eyes.

"Why are you running?" Lin Xiao, who hadn't seen her for a long time, grabbed her hand and asked with concern.

However, at this moment Tang Mei was panting and out of breath, and couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

"Tang girl, what's wrong with you? Your face is full of tears." Tang Guofu, the second son of the village chief, also looked worried and asked quickly.

"Uncle Guofu, please go to my house quickly and save my dad and mom! They are both poisoned and lying on the ground..." Tang Mei took a deep breath, and after relieving her tension a little, she struggled to break free from the hand that was holding her.

When Tang Guofu and Lin Xiao heard this, they ran straight to Tang Mei's house without saying anything more. Tang Mei followed closely behind, panting due to lack of energy.

"What on earth is going on?" Tang Guofu was stunned when he saw the two people lying on the ground. He instinctively wanted to go forward to investigate, but was stopped by Lin Xiao.

"Uncle, don't rush over. You can't lift two people at the same time by yourself. It will also destroy the clues here. Let's do this, you quickly go to the intersection outside to find the driver who brought me here. His name is Luo Ping. Tell him that I am Lin Xiao, and ask him to come over to help. If you meet other adults on the road, please ask them to help us!" Lin Xiao analyzed calmly and made suggestions to Tang Guofu.

Tang Guofu suddenly understood and nodded his agreement, then ran out of the door in a hurry. At this moment, he was extremely anxious and just hoped to find help as soon as possible to rescue Tang Mei's parents.

After observing the surroundings, Lin Xiao said, "Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang, are they poisoned?"

Tang Mei nodded silently behind her.

Lin Xiao didn't hear a response, so he turned to look at her. The person who used to be full of energy and always confronted him was now so listless. He walked over to comfort her, but saw her hand: "Why is your hand injured?"

Tang Mei looked down and found that her arms were covered with bloody scratches.

"I'm fine, it doesn't hurt." Tang Mei put her hands behind her back.

"Has your family offended anyone recently?"

Tang Mei thought carefully and found that there seemed to be no one else except the village party secretary, so she said, "I have offended the daughter and niece of the village party secretary. Do you also think that someone poisoned them?"

“This possibility cannot be ruled out.”

As soon as Lin Xiao finished speaking, there was the sound of messy footsteps coming from behind.

Tang Mei quickly moved away and looked back. She saw a young man about 1.8 meters tall, wearing a military uniform, walking hurriedly into the house behind Uncle Guofu. The man was followed by Tang Yong, Li Shuan and Gao Xiang from the village.

"Xiao Xiao."

"Hey, Uncle Luo, hello uncles. Please help me lift my aunt and uncle into the car. Uncle Luo, can you drive them to the county hospital?" After Lin Xiao greeted them, he gave instructions in an orderly manner like a natural leader.

Several people did not dare to delay, for fear of delaying the treatment time, so they immediately took action, some lifted their heads, some lifted their legs, and they worked together to carry the two people out.

Tang Mei followed in a hurry and soon arrived at the broad road in the village. There was a black military jeep parked on the road. The man named Luo Ping opened the door and arranged for several people to lift the person into the car and lay him flat on the seat. Tang Yong, Li Shuan and Gao Xiang did not get out of the car and prepared to go to the hospital together. Tang Mei also got in the car without caring whether Lin Xiao behind her followed.

Tang Guofu scratched his head, looked at the crowded car in front of him, and shook his head helplessly: "How can so many people sit? How about this, you go first, I will go find my dad and explain the situation here to him in detail."

Tang Mei turned around and said to Tang Guofu, "Uncle Guofu, thank you so much! Please tell the village chief about my parents' current condition. We need to rush to the hospital."

"You're welcome, kids. Go quickly, don't be afraid, and tell your uncle if you have any difficulties. Meimei, stay strong!" Tang Guofu patted Tang Mei's shoulder and comforted her.

Hearing Tang Guofu's caring words, Tang Mei was deeply moved, tears welled up in her eyes, and she almost couldn't hold them back. She quickly turned her head to the other side, nodded casually, and responded softly: "Yes, I know, Uncle Guofu."

At this time, Lin Xiao got out of the car and stood aside and said to the young man named Luo Ping: "Uncle Luo, please go with Meimei to take the patient to the hospital first. When everything is arranged, come back to pick me up."

Luo Ping nodded to show that he understood, then quickly got into the car and started the engine. With the roar of the engine, the jeep sped away like an arrow from a string, rushing towards the town.

After about ten minutes of driving, they finally arrived at the town's hospital. Except for Tang Mei, the other three people couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that taking a car was indeed much faster than walking or taking other means of transportation. It could save at least two-thirds of the time!

As soon as the jeep stopped, Gao Xiang couldn't wait to get out of the car and yelled towards the hospital: "Doctor! Doctor! Come and save my life!"

Before he finished his words, he heard a noisy sound of footsteps, and then two figures in white coats appeared before him.

"What happened? What's the situation?" one of the doctors, a man in his seventies with a head full of white hair, asked anxiously.

Gao Xiang saw at a glance that this old man might be the one in charge, and quickly replied: "It seems that he has been poisoned!"

Upon hearing this, the old man in the white coat immediately turned around and directed the other medical staff to carefully lift Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang onto the hospital stretcher and quickly push them into the operating room.

Tang Mei and several other people sat blankly on the wooden benches outside the operating room. Only then did they come to their senses as if awakened from a dream, and asked Tang Mei about what had happened.

Tang Mei's voice was obviously filled with tears, and she trembled as she said, "I don't know either... When I got home, I found the door open, and I thought no one was home. But when I walked into the kitchen, I saw my parents both lying on the floor. No matter how I called them, they wouldn't wake up, and they were foaming at the mouth. When you saw me, I had already fed them soapy water and cleaned the dirt out of their mouths."

"This is definitely poisoning. Was it because I was not careful about what I ate? Or did someone poison me? If I was poisoned, who would be so heartless?" Tang Yong said angrily.

"Uncle Yongzi, I have offended Mao Zhaodi and Mao Min from the Mao family. Do you know who my third uncle has offended in the village?" Tang Mei frowned so hard that she almost pinched a fly to death.

Tang Yong thought carefully, "It shouldn't be anyone. Your dad always smiles at everyone he meets." Tang Yong scratched his head and couldn't think of who Tang San would offend.

Gao Xiang interrupted, "I heard that your father is going to be the deputy village chief soon. Is he blocking someone's way?"

Tang Mei looked at him in surprise. "My dad is going to be the village chief? How come I didn't know?"

Gao Xiang touched his nose, he didn't know if it was true or not. "I heard this from the villagers when I was working, I don't know if it's true or not."

After listening to his words and considering the frame-up she suffered some time ago, Tang Mei felt that this incident was most likely really blocking someone else's path.

On the other side, Lin Xiao sent Tang Mei and the others away and returned to Tang Mei's home. He carefully observed the area near the courtyard wall. He was young and had limited experience, so he could not see anything.

But when I thought about how Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang were both very approachable and they were very clean when eating, it was impossible that I got food poisoning due to hygiene issues.

Not long after, Luo Ping drove to the Tang family.

"I have already sent Xiaoxiao home. Do you plan to go with me to visit him?" Uncle Luo asked.

Luo Ping hesitated for a moment and then replied, "Let's not go over there for now, Uncle Luo. Based on your experience, what do you think is going on?"

Uncle Luo pondered for a moment and said, "It's hard to say, Xiaoxiao. Judging from the current situation, he seems to be poisoned, but it's hard to tell what kind of poison it is for the time being."

Lin Xiao nodded and said, "Okay, I'll accompany you to check the situation, okay? After all, at this moment I can only confirm that it is poisoning, and I don't have any other clues."

“No problem.” Luo Ping responded.

So the two of them walked around the outer wall of the Tang family. When they got closer to the mushroom shed, they found that the weeds under the wall were trampled into a mess. And judging from the traces at the scene, these weeds were not trampled in one day.

Then they went back inside and made a detailed inspection of the kitchen, before scooping out the remaining food from the pot and feeding it to the hens in the chicken coop.

Surprisingly, in less than two minutes, the two hens began to foam at the mouth, convulse all over their bodies, and finally fell to the ground.

After Lin Xiao and Luo Ping looked at each other tacitly, they saw Luo Ping quickly and skillfully put the remaining food into a container, and at the same time put the water and rice grains in the water tank into another bowl respectively.

At this moment, Ling Xiao's face was extremely serious. He stared at Luo Ping closely and said sincerely: "Uncle Luo, can you please do me a favor and investigate this family in depth? They are of great significance and importance to me."

Luo Ping couldn't help but reveal a bit of embarrassment on his face. After all, he was just the chief's guard. This time he came to the village in accordance with the chief's arrangement to escort his grandson Lin Xiao here. However, facing Lin Xiao's request, he was really a bit torn.

Lin Xiao naturally understood Luo Ping's concerns, so he quickly comforted him: "Uncle Luo, please don't worry. I really can't return to the provincial capital in the near future. In this case, you must stay with me. In addition, I will immediately send a telegram to grandpa to explain the situation to him in detail. So, please rest assured."

When Luo Ping heard this, his tense expression instantly relaxed. He nodded as if relieved, saying, "Okay, as long as you have informed the elders and obtained their permission, then I have no problem with that."
