Chapter 854: Stomach Pumping

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Mumu sounded a little aggrieved.

When Li Miao heard her son’s words, she was angry and amused for a moment. “What, you still want me to praise you? Do you know what this is? You’re just eating it!”

Mumu lowered her head in grievance. “Tangtang said it’s candy. I’ve tasted it. It’s sweet.”

Li Miao sucked in a breath of cold air, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Was her and Gong Wenbai’s education so lacking?

Mumu was already so old, but he couldn’t even tell the difference between medicine and candy.

She was about to say something when Li Xiang whispered, “Aunt, don’t scold him. Grandma didn’t use a medicine bottle. It’s normal that he can’t recognize it. It’s all my fault. I should have put away the medicine bottle yesterday.”

Although the family was not short of money now, Grandma was used to saving money. In order to save money, she probably went to the village clinic to prescribe medicine.

Some medicines could not be given too much at once. The doctor would give them a few pieces and wrap them in white paper.

In order to make it easier to take it out, Grandma found a bottle of chewing gum, tore off the outer packaging, and filled it with medicine.

If one didn’t look carefully, they would really think that it was candy.

The two children were insensible. They had probably mistaken it for something else.

Hearing Li Xiang’s self-reproach, Li Miao couldn’t continue to say anything. She only comforted him. “This has nothing to do with you. Don’t take the responsibility on yourself.”

After saying that, she turned to look at Tangtang in Ji Yuanyuan’s arms.

Seeing that Tangtang was still asleep and showed no signs of waking up, she felt even more uncomfortable.

Tangtang was the treasure of the entire family. Now, because of her son…

If something happened to Tangtang, how was she going to explain it to her sister and Yuanyuan?

If only Wen Bai were here, he definitely wouldn’t be as flustered as she was.

Li Miao arrived at the hospital in a mess.

She brought Mumu along and followed behind Qin Mucheng and Ji Yuanyuan.

Qin Mucheng pointed at Mumu. “This child ate it too, but he only ate one.”

Only then did Li Miao come back to her senses. She reached out and pushed Mumu forward.

The two children were sent for a checkup.

Mumu only ate one pill, so it was not a big problem. He only needed his parents to observe for a while.

If there were no adverse reactions, then there was no need to care.

However, Tangtang was young and ate a lot. She needed to have her stomach pumped.

Standing in the corridor of the hospital, Ji Yuanyuan’s heart almost jumped out of her chest.

She blamed herself too much.

Tangtang had never been sick in the hospital before.

She had only brought her here for less than twenty-four hours, and such a thing had already happened.

She should have brought Tangtang with her when she went out in the afternoon.

She should have brought Tangtang with her.

Qin Mucheng probably noticed that Ji Yuanyuan was too flustered. He reached out to hold her hand. “Don’t worry too much. We discovered it in time. It’ll be fine after they perform the gastric pump.”

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuanyuan subconsciously shook off Qin Mucheng’s hand.

“How can you say that so easily?”

Qin Mucheng looked at Ji Yuanyuan and remained silent.

Ji Yuanyuan rubbed her hair in frustration and sighed helplessly. “I’m sorry. I…”

She had never been so flustered before. She could barely control her temper.

She leaned against the wall dejectedly and whispered, “Don’t talk to me now. I can’t control myself.”

Qin Mucheng lowered his eyes sadly.

Ji Yuanyuan’s hands were gently placed by his side, trembling slightly.

Soon, Li Xu and Zhang Kun returned.

Before the two of them could go home, they received a call from Li Nian halfway.

Only then did they know that Tangtang was in the hospital.

The two of them quickly turned around and returned to the hospital.

Seeing Ji Yuanyuan’s expression, the two of them did not go forward. Instead, they chose to stand behind her and accompany her silently.

At this moment, a nurse came out.

“Are the patient’s parents here?” she asked anxiously. “She’s awake now and isn’t very cooperative. She needs a family member to come in and comfort her.”

Ji Yuanyuan subconsciously took a step forward. “I…”

However, Qin Mucheng was faster than her. “I’m the child’s father. I’ll go.”

Ji Yuanyuan turned to look at Qin Mucheng.

However, Qin Mucheng did not look at her at all. He stared into the nurse’s eyes seriously, waiting for her response.

The nurse thought for a moment and nodded.

Qin Mucheng lifted his feet and followed the nurse.

Ji Yuanyuan wanted to give him a few words of advice but did not have the chance.

When Qin Mucheng’s figure disappeared at the door, she leaned against the wall again.

Behind him, Li Xu and Zhang Kun looked at each other helplessly.

About ten minutes later, Gong Wenbai arrived at the hospital, travel-worn.

Gong Wenbai’s expression was very serious when he learned that his son had gotten into trouble.

Mumu seemed to be a little afraid of him and subconsciously hid behind Li Miao.

Gong Wenbai looked around and saw that Ji Yuanyuan was absent-minded. He hesitated for a moment before walking to Li Xu and Zhang Kun.

“Big Sister, Brother-in-law, I’m really sorry. I didn’t teach my child well and let Tangtang suffer so much.”

Li Xu naturally felt sorry for her granddaughter. However, Mumu was also her nephew. She just waved her hand and said, “This is not Mumu’s fault. He was kind. He thought that there was candy inside and didn’t even bear to eat it.”

Just now, Li Xiang had already told Li Xu and Zhang Kun what had happened.

Gong Wenbai nodded at Li Xu, then glanced at Ji Yuanyuan.

Then, he came to Li Miao and Mumu’s side.

Mumu was still hiding behind Li Miao, carefully looking at Gong Wenbai’s expression.

Li Miao stood in front of Gong Wenbai, and her eyes immediately turned red.

When Gong Wenbai saw this, he reached out and patted Li Miao’s shoulder.

Then, he reached out to Mumu and said in a gentle tone, “Come, come to Daddy.”

Mumu carefully extended his hand and placed it on Gong Wenbai’s hand. “What’s going on?” Gong Wenbai held Mumu’s hand and whispered, “Tell Daddy what’s going on.”

Seeing that Gong Wenbai didn’t blame him, Mumu finally couldn’t hold back the emotions that he had been hiding.

“I didn’t know that I couldn’t eat it. I thought…” he cried.

Seeing this, Gong Wenbai was afraid that Mumu would affect the others, so he carried him away.

From the corridor not far away, Mumu’s sobbing and Gong Wenbai’s voice could be heard from time to time.

Ji Yuanyuan stood rooted to the ground as if she had not heard anything. All she could see was the door in front of her.

After about twenty minutes, the door finally opened.

Qin Mucheng appeared at the door with Tangmang in his arms.

Tangmang was lying on Qin Mucheng’s shoulder, so Ji Yuanyuan could not see her face.

“Tangtang?” Ji Yuanyuan rushed forward and shouted excitedly.

The little guy on Qin Mucheng’s shoulder finally moved..
