Chapter 308: First Aid
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the blink of an eye, the sound of a child crying and adults scolding the child could be heard.
Before Li Xiaoran could figure out what was going on, a figure rushed over. A pair of dirty hands grabbed the crispy meat in Li Xiaoran’s hand and stuffed it into his mouth.
Even when a woman chased after him and punched the child hard, the child still kept his mouth shut and refused to spit out the crispy meat in his mouth.
He was just a scrawny child, but at this moment, his eyes revealed a stubborn look. He would rather be beaten to death than spit out the food. This scene broke Li Xiaoran’s heart.
“Stop!” Li Xiaoran rushed forward and grabbed the woman’s hand before glaring at her.
“Why? I’m educating my child. What has it got to do with you?” Seeing that Li Xiaoran was being nosy, the woman immediately cursed, “Let go of me. If you don’t let go, I’ll beat you up too!”
An old woman following behind Li Xiaoran walked forward and slapped her.
The woman was slapped so hard that she took a few steps back.
“Where did this country bumpkin come from? You actually dare to offend my lady! Tell me your name. My lady will teach you a lesson!” The woman glared at the other party and scolded loudly.
Although the woman’s clothes looked glamorous, they were naturally much lower quality than those of genuine wealthy families.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEven the old servant beside Old Madam Jin fared better than her.
Therefore, when the other party was scolded by the old woman, she immediately became much less aggressive.
At this moment, a mean-looking man quickly ran over and said with a smile, “Sorry for offending you!”
With that, the man’s expression changed and he slapped the woman’s face.
“You can’t even take care of your child, and you caused so much trouble for me. You’re so useless! What are you looking at? Hurry up and take the dog away!” Fear appeared in the woman’s eyes when she saw the man.
Even after she was beaten up, she did not dare to say anything. She could only stand up while trembling and pull the child away.
However, the child was eating crispy meat, so when the woman pulled him, the food in his mouth got stuck in his throat and his face turned blue.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoran was shocked and quickly walked over to the child. “Quick, pick the child up. Cross your arms and hit his abdomen rhythmically!”
Li Xiaoran knew that she was not strong enough, so she handed him over to the woman following her.
This woman also knew that at this critical moment, she could not hesitate. She immediately took the child and did as Li Xiaoran said.
Once, twice, three times…
The child’s face turned even paler. If they didn’t get the thing out of his throat now, he would really die.
The woman was already terrified. Her hands and feet were cold as she stared straight at the child who was suffocating.
Seeing that the child was about to suffocate, the man was furious. He turned around and slapped the woman again.
Unexpectedly, the woman did not seem to feel any pain. Her eyes were still fixed on the child.
At that moment, the old woman pushed again, then the child felt air rush up
“Wah!” The child, who had come back from the brink of death, was terrified after finally breathing fresh air. He immediately wailed.
When the woman heard the child crying, she knew that her child had been saved, so she ignored the pain and hugged the child. “Baby, don’t cry! It’s okay! It’s all my fault!”
With that, the woman shed tears of regret.
This was her son, the child she had given birth to after ten months of pregnancy!
The reason she usually mistreated her son and scolded him was because she wanted her husband’s family not to abuse her son on account of how miserable his life was.
But if something really happened to her son, she would be heartbroken.
When the surrounding people saw that Li Xiaoran had saved a child’s life, they all cheered.
After all, no one wanted to watch someone die in front of them.
No matter how much conflict they usually had, at this moment, they all hoped that this child would be safe.
The commotion outside had long alarmed the shop. Li Xiaoqing and Luo Ziyang had already rushed over.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing that the child was fine, Li Xiaoran did not say anything else and planned to leave.
When the woman saw Li Xiaoran walking away, she immediately thought of something, so she quickly carried the child over and knelt in front of Li Xiaoran.
“Please do me a favor! You’re kind-hearted, so please hire this child as your servant! You don’t have to pay much. I just hope that you can provide him with enough meals and let him grow up safely!”
Upon seeing the woman’s tears and the pleading look in her eyes, Li Xiaoran looked at the child beside her.
It was as if everything in front of him had nothing to do with him.
Li Xiaoran could feel that this woman actually cared about this child very much.
However, what she had seen previously and this child’s behavior confused Li Xiaoran.
“You can’t sell him. This child belongs to my family. Do you not take me seriously?” The mean-looking man walked forward to stop her.
“When did the Zhu family raise my child? What my child eats every day is spare ration. My child sleeps in the dog den at the corner of the Zhu family’s wall.
You guys keep saying that my child is a bastard and beat him up for no reason. Is this how you raise a child? Besides, my child’s surname is Liang, not Zhu. I’m his biological mother. If I say I want to sell him, I can sell him. If I say I don’t want to sell him, I don’t have to sell him!” The woman retorted loudly with a swollen face.
At this moment, Li Xiaoran already understood.
It seemed that this woman had remarried with a child! Unfortunately, she met a bad person and her ex-husband’s child was not treated well. No wonder he was so hungry that he snatched other people’s food.
“Please be kind! Save my poor child!” The woman kowtowed to Li Xiaoran.
“Cai Li, come back. Don’t disturb the noble anymore!” Seeing this, the man was furious. He walked over and grabbed the woman’s hair before pulling her away.
“Stop!” Li Xiaoqing couldn’t stand it anymore and stopped him.
Luo Ziyang kicked the man’s wrist when Li Xiaoqing spoke up..
