Chapter 288: Saving the Queen Mother
Chapter 288: Saving the Queen Mother
There were lightning and thunder in the sky, and it was pitch black and very scary.
Xie Jiaojiao walked faster, and Jiang Weinan fell twice while following her, then hurried to catch up.
After walking across the ridge of the field, they were finally about to reach Niu Er's house. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning exploded from the sky, followed by a loud bang. Xie Jiaojiao shouted, "Oh no!"
Niu Er's horrified voice came immediately: "Milk!"
Xie Jiaojiao climbed up hurriedly, only to see that most of the house in front of her had collapsed!
Niu Er and Wang Xiuer were at a collapsed area, digging with their hands and shouting.
Xie Jiaojiao rushed over hurriedly.
"Niu Er!"
Niu Er looked up, his whole face was wet with rain and tears. He looked at Xie Jiaojiao in surprise, and then hurriedly shouted: "Xie Xiaogu, the milk is pressed down!"
"Come and help!" Xie Jiaojiao shouted!
Jiang Weinan and Lai Fu hurried to help move the larger piece of soil away.
Seeing that it was not going to work, Xie Jiaojiao said to Wang Xiuer, "Go and call Niu Fusheng over quickly. If possible, call more people to help!"
Wang Xiuer was soaked all over, her hair stuck to her face, and she turned around immediately.
Several people worked together to move some large clods of earth away, but there was still no sign of Mrs. Wang.
Niu Er cried and called her, but no one answered.
After moving a few more clods of earth, they saw people coming into the yard. Xie Jiaojiao looked up, but the rain was so heavy that she couldn't see who they were at all. However, after a flash of lightning, she could vaguely see that it was Niu Fusheng and Xie Zhili!
"Thank you, Auntie. Many people's houses in the village have collapsed. I can't find anyone else."
As soon as Xie Zhili came in, he started helping to move the soil without saying anything else.
I saw Niu Fusheng rushing over, but instead of helping him first, he slapped Niu Er in the face and said angrily, “This is how you take care of your grandma!”
Niu Er was slapped so hard that he almost couldn't stand!
Xie Jiaojiao frowned slightly, and just when Niu Fusheng was about to attack again, she stopped him and said unhappily, "You are here to help, not to beat Niu Er! Aunt Wang doesn't know what's going on yet. You have the energy to beat Niu Er, so you might as well save your energy to move these clods of earth, so that Aunt Wang can have a chance of survival!"
After Xie Jiaojiao finished speaking, she shook off his hand and pulled Niu Er: “Come and help!”
Niu Fusheng was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, but said nothing.
Everyone worked together to move the largest clod of earth away, only to see Mrs. Wang lying next to a low shaking cabinet. Fortunately, a wooden board on the top was leaning against the top of the shaking cabinet, and the other side was on the ground, just blocking the large clod of earth and preventing it from falling on Mrs. Wang, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable!
Niu Er jumped down anxiously: "Milk! Milk!" While shouting, he sniffed Wang Po's nose to smell the breath.
"Thank you, Auntie, grandma is still alive!"
After hearing what he said, Xie Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief.
Niu Fusheng also wanted to go down, but Xie Jiaojiao held him back: "It's so crowded down here, if you go down, Aunt Wang won't have room to come out. Let Niu Er send the people up, and you take over!"
Niu Fusheng was a little dissatisfied, but he didn't know what to say!
Niu Er wanted to pick up Wang Po, but he just couldn't. Every time he moved, Wang Po in his arms frowned.
Niu Fusheng scolded, "Can you do it? If not, come up and let me do it!"
They all ignored the frown on Wang Po's brow. After a flash of lightning and thunder, Xie Jiaojiao discovered it.
"Niu Er, take a look, is your grandma's foot pressed by something?"
Niu Er hurried to look, but it was too dark to see clearly. Until another lightning flashed, Niu Er hurriedly shouted, "Xie Xiaogu, my grandmother's right leg is crushed!"
Xie Jiaojiao hurriedly tried to squeeze down to take a look, but Jiang Weinan pulled her back worriedly.
Xie Jiaojiao shook her head at him: "Don't worry, I'm fine!"
The raincoat was a bit cumbersome, so Xie Jiaojiao took it off and gave it to Jiang Weinan. As soon as she took off the raincoat, she felt soaked by the rain and couldn't help shivering.
Xie Jiaojiao shrank back, letting Niu Er hold Wang Pozi up. She shrank back and crawled to the side of Wang Pozi's feet, touched Wang Pozi's feet, and shouted to Niu Er, "When I say pull, you pull hard, understand?"
Niu Er nodded: "Xie Xiaogu, you should be careful!"
Xie Jiaojiao took a deep breath, exerted all her strength in her hands, and propped up the thing at Wang Pozi's feet, shouting, "Niu Er! Pull!"
Niu Er quickly pulled Wang Pozi, then tried hard to raise the person's hands, and Niu Fusheng above quickly caught the person!
Niu Er and Xie Jiaojiao hurriedly came out one after another.
There was another flash of lightning. Xie Jiaojiao looked at the earthen house next door, which seemed to be crumbling, and hurriedly shouted again: "Hurry to the yard!"
As he said this, he hurried to pull Niu Er, and Niu Fusheng ran towards the yard with Wang Po on his back.
With a loud bang, half of the house collapsed again, and only one wall of the entire house was left standing in the air.
Everyone was a little scared, patting their chests and breathing heavily, especially Niu Er. If Xie Jiaojiao hadn't pushed him, he would have been buried.
Jiang Weinan hurried to see if Xie Jiaojiao was okay. Xie Jiaojiao waved her hands and gasped for breath.
Then he stood up and covered Wang Po with his straw raincoat: "Niu Er, do you still have strength? Carry your milk to my house."
Niu Er quickly got up and nodded.
Niu Fusheng was unhappy again and held onto Wang Pozi tightly, saying, "Let's go back to our own home!"
Xie Jiaojiao looked at him and said, "Niu Fusheng, I have tolerated you for a long time today! Aunt Wang is still angry now, but it is not clear whether she is injured or not. My family has ointment and medicine, but your family has nothing! If you think Aunt Wang is too old, you can just carry her back to your own home!"
Niu Fusheng was speechless because of her.
"Niu Er, carry your milk on your back!"
Niu Er snatched Wang Po from Niu Fusheng and quickly carried her on his back. Xie Jiaojiao quickly put the straw raincoat on Wang Po and went to check Wang Po's feet. There was some bleeding at the injured part.
Because Wang Po had fainted and her whole body was very limp, Wang Xiuer hurriedly supported her to prevent her from falling off Niu Er's back.
Xie Jiaojiao asked them to hurry to her house, and Niu Er left with Wang Po on his back without even looking back.
Then Xie Jiaojiao looked at Niu Fusheng: "Not being filial when you should be will only cause trouble like now."
Niu Fusheng glared at Xie Jiaojiao: "You..."
"What's wrong with me? Niu Fusheng, it's been raining all morning. If you were thoughtful, you should have thought of your mother when you saw it getting so dark and raining so hard this morning, instead of rushing over and asking someone to call you!"
After Xie Jiaojiao finished speaking, she didn't look at him again and was about to leave with her people.
Jiang Weinan held her back and tried to take off his raincoat for her, but Xie Jiaojiao refused hastily: "I'm already soaked anyway."
Jiang Weinan was unwilling and insisted on putting his clothes on her.
Lai Fu wanted to take off his clothes again, but Jiang Weinan told him not to do so, otherwise he would catch a cold.
At this time, Xie Zhili also felt that it was useless for him to stay here, so he turned around and walked towards his home.
Xie Jiaojiao stopped him, "Xie Zhili, come to my house. Mom made ginger soup."
When the lightning flashed by, there was a hint of warmth in Xie Zhili's eyes.
Xie Jiaojiao and the others walked in front, and he followed carefully behind.
