Siheyuan: Being a fisherman in 1962

Chapter 272: Banggeng, can you... have a baby?

Chen Fei was pushed to the forefront today because of an accident.

It all started with a humble piece of bacon.

Early in the morning, when Jia Zhang was cleaning the front door of her house, she noticed a piece of bacon sticking out from the edge of Chen Fei's trash can, and she immediately came up with some ideas.

She quickly picked up the bacon, a smug smile on her face, as if she had found a huge bargain.

However, this seemingly ordinary scene quietly buried hidden dangers.

Qin Huairu, the backbone of the Jia family, was busy preparing breakfast. When she saw her mother-in-law coming back excitedly with bacon, she had some doubts in her heart but did not say much.

She washed and sliced ​​the bacon and prepared it as a breakfast snack for the whole family. Banggeng, Qin Huairu's only son, was at an age of greed and had a special liking for bacon, so he ate it in a few big mouthfuls.

Soon, something strange happened. Banggeng suddenly covered his stomach, his face turned pale, beads of sweat slid down his cheeks, and he cried out incoherently in pain.

Qin Huairu's heart tightened when she saw this, and she immediately realized that there might be something wrong with the bacon. She recalled the bacon in Chen Fei's trash can, and suddenly she had an ominous premonition.

"Mom, is there something wrong with this bacon?" Qin Huairu looked at Jia Zhang anxiously.

Jia Zhang was also stunned, and then turned angry: "It must be that kid Chen Fei's doing! How could he throw away the spoiled bacon!"

Qin Huairu had no time to care about anything else. At this moment, she was concerned only about Banggeng's safety.

They quickly picked up the child and decided to send him to the health center immediately.

Jia Zhang followed closely behind. The two walked in a hurry, but in their hearts they were each thinking about their resentment and blame towards Chen Fei.

On the way, Qin Huairu's thoughts surged like the tide.

She remembered that although Chen Fei was a man of few words, he was not a bad person. How could he do such a thing?

But on second thought, the bacon was indeed picked up from his trash can, so how could he easily clear himself of suspicion?

I couldn't help but feel a little more disappointed and angry with Chen Fei, thinking that even if he wanted to throw away the food, he should have handled it properly and not let innocent children suffer.

After arriving at the clinic, the doctor examined him and made the preliminary judgment that Bang Geng might have suffered from food poisoning. Fortunately, he was brought to the hospital in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

After hearing this, Qin Huairu finally felt relieved, but was immediately replaced by anger towards Chen Fei.

After returning to the courtyard, Qin Huairu went straight to Chen Fei, with a tone of obvious blame: "Chen Fei, how can you be so irresponsible? That piece of bacon is yours, right? Do you know that Bang Geng almost died!"

Upon hearing this, Fade Chen was stunned, and then felt guilty and self-blaming.

He really didn't know why the bacon appeared next to the trash can, and he didn't expect it to cause such a big commotion.

He hurriedly explained, but Qin Huairu's anger was difficult to calm down. She believed that Chen Fei was the culprit, and the resentment in her heart grew like weeds.

Qin Huairu looked at Banggeng sleeping on the hospital bed, her heart filled with worry and anxiety.

I am worried that this incident will cause irreversible harm to Bang Geng, and I am even more worried that the future of the Jia family will be overshadowed by it.

And all this, in her opinion, was caused by Fade Chen.

Chen Fei's room seemed particularly deserted.

He sat in front of the window, looking at the moonlight outside, knowing that explanation alone was far from enough to resolve the misunderstanding.

I must find the real source of the bacon, clear my name, and do my part to ensure the safety of Qin Huairu and Banggeng.

In the early morning, the sun shone through the sparse clouds and shone in front of Chen Fei's simple hut.

As usual, he took down the bacon that had been pickled last night from under the eaves and prepared to make a hearty breakfast for his family.

However, when he carefully examined the bacon, an imperceptible abnormality aroused his vigilance - the surface of the bacon seemed to be covered with a layer of barely visible powder, emitting a faint strange fragrance, but mixed with a smell that did not belong to food.

Chen Fei's heart sank suddenly. Years of life experience told him that this was definitely not a coincidence.

He immediately realized that this might be someone's deliberate act. Anger and confusion intertwined in his heart, but he did not explode immediately. Instead, he calmly threw the suspicious bacon into a garbage dump in the distance, secretly vowing to find out the truth.

Just then, Jia Zhang, the neighboring woman who always liked to take advantage of others, happened to pass by.

Her shrewd eyes swept through the garbage heap and immediately found the abandoned piece of bacon.

A hint of greed flashed in her eyes, and she quickly picked up the bacon, feeling secretly happy as if she had picked up some treasure.

In the afternoon, Banggeng's painful groans were heard from the Jia family's courtyard.

It turned out that the piece of bacon that Jia Zhangshi brought back with Qin Huairu's tacit approval had become the "source of poison" in the family.

Banggeng, the usually lively and active child, was now lying on the bed with a pale face and purple lips, obvious signs of poisoning.

Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang were panicked and rushed Banggeng to the village clinic.

On the way, Qin Huairu felt mixed emotions. She vaguely felt that all this was related to herself, but she was unwilling to face this cruel fact.

In the clinic, the old doctor frowned and quickly performed emergency treatment on Bang Geng.

As the medicine was injected, Banggeng's breathing gradually stabilized and his face regained some color.

Qin Huairu finally felt relieved, but then the old doctor's words came like a bolt from the blue, causing her to completely collapse.

"The child's internal system has been severely damaged. Although he is out of danger for the time being, it may be difficult for him to return to normal in the future." The old doctor said with a hint of blame, "You young people, how can you not keep medicines and food, which are life-threatening things, and let the child easily eat them by mistake?"

Qin Huairu's eyes were red. She wanted to explain herself but didn't know where to start.

Looking at Chen Fei who was silent beside him, an inexplicable sense of guilt surged in his heart.

At this moment, she finally realized that she was not only a bystander of this tragedy, but also the mastermind behind pushing everything into the abyss.

As for Chen Fei, his eyes were deep and complex, as if he could see through the struggle and regret in Qin Huairu's heart.

He didn't say anything, but just walked out of the clinic silently.

Qin Huairu stood under the dim street light, her eyes fixed on Bang Geng beside her, with both anticipation and uneasiness in her eyes.

"Bang Geng, can you... have a baby?"

Hearing this, Banggeng's expression instantly became awkward and complicated. He lowered his head and remained silent, his fingers unconsciously rubbing the corner of his clothes.

Seeing this, Qin Huairu knew that this question was too abrupt, but the anxiety in her heart made her unable to control herself.

Just then, an old doctor with white hair and beard slowly walked over. He was a well-known good man in the community and Qin Huairu's last hope.

"Qin Huairu, no one can say for sure. But the future is always full of possibilities. Medicine and technology are advancing. Maybe a miracle will happen one day." Although the old doctor's words were somewhat comforting, they could not hide the uncertainty.
