Chapter 119 Who abandoned the baby
Under the weak light, a baby's little head was revealed from the tightly wrapped blanket. The baby's clear and bright eyes were looking at Xiaolan. The moment Xiaolan saw the baby, she felt in a trance, as if she was in a dream.
, this baby seemed familiar.
Xiaolan pinched herself, and the pain made her wake up: This was not a dream at all! Xiaolan looked around, and saw that the dark night was silent and she could not see anything.
There was a canvas bag next to the baby. Xiaolan opened it and saw that there were some baby supplies inside, including two bags of milk powder, milk bottles, some small clothes and a pair of small tiger-head shoes.
Xiaolan couldn't figure out who put the child at the door of her house and knocked on the window to remind her? But no matter who it was or what the reason was, Xiaolan could not ignore the child. Xiaolan held the baby in one hand.
, holding a stick in one hand, he carefully walked back into the house little by little. After putting the child away, he carried the canvas bag into the house.
Xiaolan opened the blanket and found that the baby was a boy. The little guy was pink and tender, with a chubby face like a red apple. Under the long eyelashes, a pair of big black eyes looked at Xiaolan curiously.
Don't cry or fuss.
"Why do you look so much like the dancing child in my dream? You are so cute! You are so cute, who is so cruel to throw you outside?" Xiaolan's heart melted when she saw the baby's adorable appearance.
Xiaolan felt the baby's pulse, listened to the baby's heartbeat, and carefully checked the baby back and forth. She found that this was a very healthy baby with nothing wrong with it.
Xiaolan put the baby on the soft quilt and covered it with a blanket. The little guy was probably tired and fell asleep after a while.
Xiaolan took out the contents of the canvas bag and folded the clothes neatly again. Then she found a folded piece of paper at the bottom of the canvas bag. When she opened it, she saw a crooked line written on it:
He was born on July 7, 1977 in the lunar calendar and is in good health.
Xiaolan turned the paper over, trying to find some other information about the child, but found nothing. She couldn't help but feel a little confused. She didn't know what the person who abandoned the child meant, and only left a few words.
Seeing that the baby was sleeping soundly, Xiaolan turned off the light and fell asleep next to the baby. Because the baby was sleeping next to her, Xiaolan couldn't sleep well at all. As long as the baby made any movement, she would wake up and go over to take a look.
Xiaolan had no experience in taking care of children and did not put a diaper on the child. As a result, the child wet a large area of the quilt and blanket, and the clothes on his body were also soaked. Xiaolan hurriedly cleaned up the mess and was in a panic.
Xiaolan finished cleaning up and just lay down to sleep when the baby started crying again. Xiaolan patted and coaxed her, but the baby cried more and more loudly, which made Xiaolan at a loss.
The child cried endlessly, and Xiaolan was so anxious that she was covered in sweat. Finally, she accidentally saw the milk powder, and then she remembered that the child might be hungry. She hurriedly dragged her injured leg up to boil water, rinsed the milk powder, and let it dry to the right temperature.
After stuffing the pacifier into the baby's mouth, the little guy stopped crying and started drinking.
Xiaolan was tortured by the child so much that she couldn't sleep much all night. When the rooster crowed, she got up to make breakfast. When Zhao Laosi came back, she fell asleep lying on the pot table.
Zhao Laosi quickly woke up Xiaolan and asked her to go back to the kang to sleep. Xiaolan called Zhao Laosi into the back room and asked him to look after the child.
When Zhao Laosi saw the child, he was startled and asked in surprise: "Whose child is this?"
Xiaolan explained the cause and effect, and Zhao Laosi thought for a while and said: "You have an injury to your leg, and you can't take care of the child! How about I ask Miao Na to come over to take care of the child, and then wait for Kang Jing and the others to come back, and then
Let’s discuss together where to send the child!”
Xiaolan thought for a while and felt that what the fourth brother said made sense. Her leg injury was not healed and it was indeed difficult to take care of the child. However, she did not ask the fourth brother to call Miao Na. Instead, she went to the old Aunt Liu who had experience in taking care of children.
Come and help me for half a day.
Old Aunt Liu came over and was also very surprised when she saw the child. Xiaolan told her the origin of the child. Old Aunt Liu wiped the child's face and said: "Such a good child, as a parent
How can you be willing to abandon it? There is something wrong with this child, right?"
"I've checked everything, and there's nothing wrong with it!" Xiaolan said.
"What's your plan?" Old Aunt Liu asked.
"I don't know either, I haven't thought about it yet!"
"What's there to think about? Wait until Xiao Chengzi comes back and send the child to the police station. They can deal with it how they like!"
"How should the police station handle it?"
"If we can find his parents, we will return him. If we can't find him, we will see who can adopt him. If no one can adopt him, we will send him to an orphanage."
Xiaolan didn't say a word after hearing what Old Aunt Liu said. She felt that this child was destined to her, so she dreamed about it, and he came!
"You don't want to raise it by yourself, do you? Don't even think about it! You are still young and you are not infertile, so why would you want a child of unknown origin? Besides, this is a disaster year, and you may have to eat the chaff.
Yancai, what are you going to do to support this child? Also, what will you do if Tiger Lao Qi comes back and he doesn't agree? If there is another misunderstanding, it will be even more troublesome!" Old Aunt Liu seemed to understand Xiaolan's thoughts.
"What misunderstanding could there be?" Xiaolan didn't think about it at all.
"Is there any misunderstanding? He has been there for more than two years, and when he comes back, he has a big fat boy. Can you make it clear?" Old Aunt Liu reminded Xiaolan.
"This child was left at the door of the house. Why can't it be explained clearly?" Xiaolan didn't understand.
"Who saw it? How can you prove that you picked up this child? Don't be afraid of 10,000, just be afraid of what might happen. If Tiger Lao Qi thinks that you had this child with someone else, it will be troublesome! Besides, he believes that this child is
You picked it up, but if he doesn't agree to adopt it, and you and the child have feelings for each other, what will you do?" Old Aunt Liu said.
Xiaolan had never thought about what Old Aunt Liu said. She just felt that it would be best if she could find the child's parents. If they couldn't find the child, it would be better to give the child to others or go to an orphanage. It would be better to adopt it herself.
"You should think about it carefully and don't be stupid!" After saying this, Old Aunt Liu went out to wash the child's wet clothes and blanket.
In the afternoon, Kang Jing and Xiao Chengzi came back, but the matter had not been completed. The entire county has been hit by a large area this year, and there are still many situations like Xiaolizitun, so it is impossible to provide post-disaster policies to Xiaolizi alone. The county
The competent authorities asked Xiao Chengzi and others to go back to the commune to discuss a solution, and told him not to go to the county to report the situation beyond the next level, and even if he came, they would no longer receive them.
After the two of them came back, they were surprised to see that a child had appeared in their home out of thin air. Xiaolan told her what had happened, and Kang Jing asked her to take out the piece of paper in the canvas bag and show it to her.
There was only one sentence on the paper, but Kang Jing read it over and over several times and made signs in front of her eyes with her fingers.
"Sister, what are you doing?" Xiaolan didn't understand what Kang Jing was doing.
