Chapter 4 Giving birth to a boy and a girl is different
At this time, Xia Hanqing had a frightened expression on his face.
Probably because of his intuition as a doctor, Xia Jingzhi discovered the source of Xia Hanqing's exclamation for the first time.
This little boy has lost the little finger of his left hand!
The left hand that was guarding the marshmallow, the little finger was gone, and in its place was a filthy, ugly abscess.
He was so young, he looked like he was only four or five years old, what had he been through?
Following Xia Jingzhi's gaze, Zhao Hongsleeve also understood why Xia Hanqing was afraid.
Not afraid of this poor child, but afraid of pain.
Why is there such an injury, and how much pain should he have?
The little hand grabbed Xia Jingzhi's sleeve, and Xia Hanqing shook it gently: "Dad, help my brother." ”
Dad is a doctor and can cure diseases, the boy who is older than himself is his elder brother, Xia Hanqing is not very old, but he is very sensible, this sentence is not wrong at all.
She was only two and a half years old, and she only knew that the pain was unbearable, and she did not want to see the little boy suffer the injury.
Didn't think much about it.
It is precisely because of her true and pure heart that the little boy ended his wandering from time to time.
The amusement ended here, Xia Jingzhi took the little boy to the hospital to treat his fingers, and then took him to the police station.
Along the way, Xia Hanqing kept trying to talk to the little boy, but the little boy never said a word, and he didn't even want to pay attention to her, only when Xia Hanqing gave his favorite potato chips, he was stunned for a moment, and then took it and stuffed it into his mouth.
"No, no hurry......"
Pulling out his small water bottle from Zhao Hongsleeve's bag, Xia Hanqing hesitated for a moment before handing the water bottle towards the little boy.
This is her special blue fat water bottle, or was it specially sent to her by her uncle who lives far away!
The water bottle is filled with homemade milk tea, and she only has this small bottle to drink every day.
This time, the little boy did not hesitate, almost snatched the water bottle, opened the cap and poured it into his mouth.
After taking the first sip, the little boy paused imperceptibly, and then drank it all.
Xia Hanqing was already distressed, and tears came out of his eyes now: What's wrong with him, did he finish drinking?
I didn't say anything, I gave him all to drink......
Xia Hanqing's eyes were already moist and clear, and at this time, the tears were full, reflecting a lot of brilliance.
After the little boy drank the milk tea, he saw Xia Hanqing's appearance: a two-and-a-half-year-old baby, well-behaved and cute, wearing bright clothes, full of vitality, and his big watery eyes seemed to contain the most mysterious emotions in the world.
On this side, Xia Hanqing was already very uncomfortable, but she didn't see the little boy return the blue fat water bottle to her, the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she became, and finally cried out with a "wow......
Xia Jingzhi and Zhao Hongsleeve's attention has been on the two children, they don't have to think about it, they know why Xia Hanqing is crying, they look at each other, and laugh unkindly......
Hearing the laughter of his parents, Xia Hanqing cried even more.
It's so annoying, don't coax me, woo woo......
The family was crying and laughing, and the little boy who was traveling with him seemed to want to comfort Xia Hanqing, but he didn't know what to do, so he could only hold the blue fat water bottle tightly and keep up with them.
The house at the police station is very old, and it is said that it will be relocated next year, and not many people run here on a hot day. Lao Sun and Xia Jingzhi at the police station are fellow villagers, he was writing materials on the desk, and he was very surprised when he saw Xia Jingzhi coming over with his family: "Xiao Xia, what are you doing here?"
"Uncle Sun. ”
Xia Jingzhi walked a few steps quickly, came to Lao Sun's side, and briefly explained the matter, Lao Sun looked at the little boy, and a trace of sympathy flashed in his eyes.
Soon, a mild-tempered female policeman was called over by Lao Sun, and when she saw the appearance of the little boy, her motherhood was stimulated, regardless of the bad smell of the little boy, and squatted in front of him: "Little friend, what's your name?"
No response.
"Kid, how old are you?"
Still no response.
Xia Jingzhi and Zhao Hongsleeve had expected this scene: before, they had asked the boy similar questions, however, the little boy never said a word from beginning to end, as if he was a mute who couldn't speak. Xia Jingzhi is a very good doctor, and he is sure that the boy is not mute.
can only say that what he has experienced makes him reluctant to speak......
The gentle policeman patiently asked, and the only thing that responded was Xia Hanqing's sobbing and crying......
"Forget it, Sister Rong, don't ask. ”
Lao Sun could see it clearly, the little boy was reluctant to speak at all, he stopped the female policeman from doing any more useless work, and took out a folder: "Register first......"
The child's clothes are tattered and dirty, but the old grandson can at least see its original style - the clothes in Linshui County are all "fashionable", which style is popular, which kind of clothes can be seen all over the street, and the child is wearing this body, which has not been seen locally.
I don't know where this kid came from.
Register information, take photos and keep files, at this time, although the household registration information began to do the national networking work, but this is only the initial stage, quite a lot of areas, even the network has not been opened. Faced with a child who doesn't know where to come from, the police can only do their best to obey the fate of God - and there is not much they can do. The welfare homes in the county are in average condition, but there is never a shortage of people. Even the local lost children in Linshui County may live there for more than half a year before finding a home.
"Xiao Xia, this kid, do you have any ideas?"
Lao Sun's question is very simple, but the meaning is more than that.
Xia Hanqing is an only child, and at the moment of family planning, having another child means that Xia Jingzhi and Zhao Hongsleeve will lose their iron rice bowls, that is, they have no son in their family and will not have a son.
As early as when Zhao Hongsleeve was pregnant and found out that it was a daughter, she was even worried that her in-laws would let her give up the child like someone else's family, or give birth to her, hide it, or even give it away or sell it, and try every means to have another son.
Fortunately, nothing she was worried about happened, and Xia Hanqing was also regarded as a big baby by the whole family.
But unfortunately, there is always a little bit, and it is good for Chinese to pay attention to both children and daughters. And she, who grew up under the protection of her brother since she was a child, also hopes that her baby daughter can be pampered by one more brother.
Give Xia Hanqing another brother?
Not to mention that family planning is not allowed, the key timeline is not right......
Loving his baby daughter wholeheartedly, Xia Jingzhi really didn't think about it so much, but Lao Sun was really thinking about Xia Jingzhi: It doesn't necessarily have to be this child, but there is still a boy at home.
Even the propagandists who shouted "boys and girls are the same" wanted a son.
Whether this idea is stupid or not, maybe we can only see it when we wait until the day when "giving birth to a boy and a girl is different, and having a boy has no partner......
