Chapter 189: Just Because I'm Like You (3)

Looking at the turbulent lake, looking at the back of the young man who could no longer be seen, thinking about what he had just said, the crowd of onlookers suddenly became excited and took action.

A strange emotion arose in my heart.

Most of them are locals, so they naturally know the power of this river and the helpless and painful stories that happen here. But as the kid said, if you watch and do nothing, that's the real regret.

Although they don't have the courage, they can do what they can.

So, for a while, everyone stopped watching, and some people went directly to stop the tourists who came and went without knowing it, asked who knew who could be watery, and begged them to save the two children in the water.

Some people cooperated in a frenzied attempt to break the trees by the river, trying to find a thick, long stick. Others ran up the hill and rushed into the nearest store, looking for something they could use, such as ladders.

In short, everyone is no longer just watching, but they are all taking action.

A teenager can jump down the river to save people without hesitation, why can they only stand by and watch?

As the boy said, whether you succeed or not, you have to give it a try. What if, what if it succeeds?

This woman's surname is Zhu, her family is really wealthy, and she is married to the Chen family, a big family in the city. The Chen family started in the rice grain business, and they grew big step by step from a small shop.

Today, almost half of the rice in Wuxing County comes from the Chen family.

However, the Chen family is most famous not because it monopolizes nearly half of the rice business in the city, but because of an incident that happened eight years ago.

At that time, the Chen family was not yet developed, but it could be called solid.

One day eight years ago, Mrs. Chen, who is the Song family, and her mother-in-law, Zhang, took their three-year-old child to Lingshan Temple to pray for blessings, but in a blink of an eye, the child disappeared.

After searching for a few days, the Chen family finally understood that the child was abducted by Hanako.

learned through the county government that the child was estimated to be unable to be found, and Zhang was immediately so angry that he suffered a stroke and was bedridden, looking for death all day long, while Song was depressed for a while.

Later, it was Song who became pregnant again and gave birth to another son, and Zhang slowly got better. It's just that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is like that.

And for the sake of livelihood, the head of the house naturally doesn't care about these. Anyway, I have a son again, and while doing business, I am looking for children. As for the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, he can't manage it, and he doesn't want to care about it.

In the end, he was still a little annoyed with the Song family in his heart.

Song naturally knew in his heart, but he was just boiling like a wick. Thinking that when the son in front of her grows up, she will learn from Kang's example, and it is a big deal to look for children all over the country.

Due to the hot weather recently, Song's children couldn't stand the heat, so Zhang took the initiative to bring Lingshan Temple to escape the heat. With the experience of the last time, Zhang and Zhu didn't dare to leave the child for a moment, staring at him nervously.

Unknowingly, this child was an unusually naughty person, and he didn't listen to greetings at all, so Song had to hold him in his arms. After hugging for a long time, Song really felt that his hand hurt, it was sore and soft, so he let it go.

The kid ran away like crazy, and Song had to follow closely behind with a group of people who were waiting. However, there was an accident, and the child, greedy for the scenery of the river, stepped on the moss on the shore, and as soon as his feet slipped, he quickly slid into the river.

The river bank was slanted, so the boy slid out of the water, and he was struggling out of fear, so he slid all the way to the deep water.

Seeing this, the Song family wanted to jump down to save his son, but after thinking about it, if he went like this, the two children in the family would be wasted. You know, the two-room concubine in the family has always been uneasy, and it is estimated that she would die immediately.

And her eldest son has not been found yet, even if she is going to die, it is definitely not now. It is said that Mrs. Kang, who is famous all over the country, came to Wuxing County and lived in this Lingshan Temple, and she was planning to beg her.

Then she saw a young man with some familiar eyes go to the river and save her child.

Seeing that everyone was taking action, Song said in his heart, everyone is helping, but she, a mother, thinks of death, how shouldn't she. Thinking of this, she stared at the movements by the lake, not daring to blink her eyes, for fear of missing something.

Zhang's originally followed, and he wanted to go to the toilet halfway, thinking that his grandson was holding him in his daughter-in-law's arms, and a large group of people followed, so he didn't care.

As soon as I came out, I saw the crowd by the river, and I suddenly had a bad premonition in my heart. People like her, who have lost their grandchildren, have always been very sensitive in their hearts, and when they saw the crowd watching, they panicked and walked forward quickly to see what was going on.

When she heard from passers-by that a child had fallen into the water, she suddenly lost her mind, but walked forward firmly, and began to pray in her heart that it would not be her grandson.

Unfortunately, the Bodhisattva did not hear her prayers at all, and this time it was her precious grandson who fell into the water.

As soon as Shao Kang swam to the vicinity of the child who had fallen into the water, he immediately understood what those people on the shore had just said who had advised him not to go into the water, it was too cold here.

The water was like water in an ice cellar, irritating his legs and hurting his body like pins and needles. Enduring the pain, he finally saw the child's location clearly.

Fortunately, he moved quickly, and the child was still struggling, and he could still be saved.

Thinking of this, he plunged into the water, endured the case, dived under the child in one breath, and then surfaced and picked up the child.

This child, like the one he saved in the cistern, realized that someone had saved him, so he grabbed Shaokang like a life-saving straw.

Shaokang couldn't move, but he was afraid that the child would choke on water again, so he had to endure it and ate several mouthfuls of water by himself.

After a while, Song saw Shaokang holding his son out of the water, and he was happy as if he was something, but he didn't notice that Shaokang couldn't support it anymore and drank several more sips of water.

Fortunately, the Song family was not stupid, and when he saw this, he understood that Shaokang was supporting others to save people together, so he began to shout loudly again.

As soon as Zhang came, he saw Song shouting for help there, and he was so frightened that he fainted. Later, I saw Shaokang lift his grandson out of the water, which slightly relieved his panic and fear.

Because it is by the river, and because it is a newly built flood control levee, it should be all bare, not to mention trees, and even weeds are rare. The government was even more afraid that these weeds would crack the embankment, so they regularly sent people to weed, resulting in this area being bare.

You must know that the whole country is flooding, and the imperial court has also allocated a lot of money to build embankments. If the embankment bursts and the people drown, the local officials will not want to live.

However, some people ran into the shop on the hill and got some bamboo poles for the lion dance, and hurried here.

It's just a pity that Shaokang is only a teenager after all, his strength is very limited, and the water here is cold, Shaokang gradually became a little physically exhausted, and when he used his last breath to push the child to the shore, the people on the shore grabbed the child's hand.

Seeing this, another man immediately broke into the water and pushed the child ashore.

Everyone was busy saving the child, and they thought that Shaokang would be water-based, so they ignored him. In this way, Shaokang gradually slipped out and slid towards the deep water.

Song saw that his son was rescued, and held the child with the relieved Zhang. Among the onlookers was the experienced fisherman, who saw a lot of people who had fallen into the water, and a few years ago, a method of first aid began to circulate throughout the country, so he immediately rescued him.

Because Shaokang rescued him in time, and the fisherman's skills were good, he pressed a few times and blew a few times, and the child spit out a few mouthfuls of water in a few moments, and slowly woke up.

Seeing this, the Zhang family and the Song family cried with joy.

At this time, someone finally realized that something was wrong and shouted: "What about the son who saved people, why is he missing?" Isn't it ......."

"Ah, don't you say that I forgot, it's true that I haven't seen anyone. I think it's ......."

"Oh, what a sin! I saved people, but I ...... myself"

These shouts are no less than thunder on the ground, and everyone panicked, you look at me, I look at you, but no one wants to go into the water to save people.

In the end, a man said: "Brothers, let's go into the water to save people, aren't we as big as a half-sized person?" ”

As he spoke, he took the lead and jumped into the river and groped.

The fisherman jumped down after him, and said as he walked into the deep water: "Everyone, pay attention, according to my experience, that child must be physically exhausted, and he must be under the water at this moment." Everyone groped for the bottom of the water, and there was not much time for everyone to be delayed. ”

When everyone heard this, they understood very well in their hearts that if they couldn't find anyone after a certain amount of time, then they didn't need to look for it.

For a while, the men who knew how to be watery felt their blood boiling, and they walked into the river one after another and began to grope to save people.

There was a person who came panting with a bamboo pole, and when he heard that the young man who saved people had rescued people, he unfortunately couldn't get up, and he was at a loss for a while, and he was moved to cry.

To say that there are still many good people in this world. A young man who never knew each other dared to sacrifice himself in order to save people.

Zhang hugged his grandson and didn't let go, but he didn't dare to leave. The accident happened to save her grandson, and if she left with her grandson in her arms, the onlookers would definitely despise her.

Besides, whether or not she should go is another matter.

Song felt guilty as if he was something, and he couldn't wait to die in place of this child. It's all because she didn't take a good look at the child, so she made such a scene. If she was a man, she would have jumped down to save people, but unfortunately she could only think about it.

Even if she did, it would be in vain.

Suddenly, Song noticed that there was a purse where the boy had just jumped into the river. Yes, the boy deliberately took off this purse and put it here before going into the water, thinking that it was something extremely important to him.

In order to save his son, this young man did not hesitate to rush to this friendship, no matter whether the child can be rescued today or not, the Song family must go to someone's house to apologize.

Thinking of this, Zhu picked up the purse and held it tightly in his hand. When she approached Zhang's with her purse, the child in Zhang's arms woke up and clamored for her to hug her.

Song said to Zhang: "Mother, you can help me hold this purse, it belongs to the child." It was an extremely important thing to think of, and I saw him untie it before he went down the river. ”

As soon as the Zhang family heard it, they understood that the Song family wanted to use this purse to find the child's family, and even reached out to take it. Also, their family is not short of silver anyway. In case, in case the child can't get up, send some silver, which is more or less a thought.

Unbeknownst to him, Song was in a hurry to hold the child, and Zhang's hand was a little slower, and the purse fell to the ground, revealing a piece of jade pendant inside.

This jade pendant is of average color, and as soon as it hits the ground, it "snaps" and falls into two.

When Zhang saw it, she was superstitious and had a bad heart. It is said that people raise jade for three years, and jade raises people for a lifetime. This jade was broken alive like this, and the young man was afraid that it was inappropriate......

Thinking of this, my heart became more and more uneasy.

However, the more she looked at this jade pendant, the more frightened Zhang became, it was like the one she once bought for her grandson. That time, she and Zhu took her grandson shopping, and the kid fell in love with this jade pendant at a glance.

No matter how the Song family persuaded him, he had to buy it.

Zhang's most love for his grandson, seeing that although the texture of this jade pendant is average, but the carving is good, he bought it and gave it to his grandson to wear. What's this, it's a big deal to change it later, it's rare for him to like it.

If this jade pendant is really the one he bought at the beginning, then the child in Jiangli who is uncertain about his life and death at this moment......

Thinking of this, Zhang's shivered for a while, and she was a little dizzy all of a sudden, so she subconsciously stretched out her hand to support it, but she didn't know that the support was successful, and she fell down all of a sudden.

Seeing this, Song hurriedly stepped forward with the maid to help, just because she was too nervous. However, Zhang couldn't take care of himself, and hurriedly said: "Daughter-in-law, you, look at the jade pendant, the jade pendant ......."

As he spoke, he couldn't catch his breath, so he hurriedly stroked his chest with his words.

Hearing this, Song only said that his mother-in-law accidentally broke the young man's jade pendant and felt guilty, so he stepped forward to pick it up. It's just that when I squatted down and saw the shape of this jade pendant, I was stunned all of a sudden.

This jade pendant, this jade pendant is exactly the same as the one that hung from her lost eldest son. Could it be, is it ......

But she remembered the boss's words again: "This jade pendant is unique in this world, although the material is a little worse, but this meaning is excellent." Wearing this jade, you will definitely be able to bless this child with good fortune and good fortune in trouble. ”

"Mother, mother, do you mean that it was Shaokang who just jumped into the river to save our Hao'er?" When Zhu said this, he fell to the ground suddenly.

Looking at the river where there were still no search results, her heart was in despair.

I have been looking forward to the encounter for many years, but I didn't know that it would be such a result.

Master Chen was originally reading the account book at home, but as soon as he received the news, he immediately came. As soon as he came, the two women seemed to have the backbone of the heart, and they cried next to him in a low voice.

Seeing this, Master Chen made the decision to let the nurse take Chen Hao away first, and then began to comfort his mother and wife. However, when he heard his wife say that the child in Jiangli who was uncertain about his life and death was likely to be his eldest son, he was at a loss for what to do and was completely stunned.

However, what they didn't know was that Master Chen's behavior of sending the child away really made the onlookers a little unhappy.

A woman who looked to be in her forties said disdainfully: "Even though the child is innocent and frightened, it is not appropriate to send it away like this." According to me, the child went down to the river to save people, and now his life and death are uncertain, if he can be rescued alive, the child will kowtow to others in front of everyone. ”

Another said, "Isn't it! According to me, not only should you kowtow, but you should also give some silver. This Chen family does not lack such a little silver. People have given up their lives to save people! ”

"Hey, how do you know that there are many ungrateful people in this world."

Everyone, you looked at me and said a word, which made the Chen family's faces red and white for a while. However, the second daughter of the Chen family, that is, the first child born to the Song family after Chen Shaokang was lost, couldn't bear it, and stood up angrily.

"Our Chen family is not ungrateful, and we never dare to do this. However, do you know, just now my mother and my grandmother carefully looked at this little brother's purse, and the jade pendant inside belonged to my eldest brother who had lost it for eight years. In other words, it is very likely that my brother was the one who jumped into the river to save my brother. Please search carefully, no matter whether you can save my eldest brother today, our Chen family will give one hundred taels of silver. ”

As soon as she said this, someone immediately joined the search and rescue without hesitation. Of course, some people in the river were disdainful, straightened up and said, "Girl, you are serious, we are not saving people for silver." It's chilling when you say that. ”

"Yes, at a young age, how did you know that there are always things in this world that silver can't buy......"

Hearing this, Master Chen glared at his daughter, and hurriedly stood up and remedied: "Trouble everyone, the little girl is not sensible, I hope you don't mind." ”

However, the girl's words succeeded in blocking the long tongues of a group of onlookers. That's too much information to say.

The onlookers are all well-known people in Wuxing County, and naturally know that the Chen family lost their child a few years ago. If this young man whose life and death are uncertain is really the child of the Chen family who has been lost for several years, it really makes people not know what to say.

It's really okay to write a drama about this kind of thing.

The Song family was burned inside, as if they had aged ten years all of a sudden.

She didn't care about her image anymore, she propped up the ground with her hands and stretched her neck towards the river, expecting a miracle to happen.

At this moment, the fisherman who had just jumped into the river first said, "I have found someone, here, come and help and give a hand." Fast! ”

A few people who were nearby rushed over, and several people worked together to lift Shaokang out of the water.

Poor Shaokang, exhausted and eating a lot of water, is already in a coma at the moment. His face was frighteningly pale, his body was cold, and there was no temperature at all.

Seeing that the Chen family had been rescued, they hurriedly made a way, and Master Chen even took off his clothes and spread them on the ground, half-naked and half-kneeling beside Shaokang. Seeing him like this, the fisherman immediately began to administer the first aid method just now.

To say that this method is said to have been passed down from Qingshan County, he felt that he had been dealing with water all year round, so he learned it seriously.

After cleaning up the sediment and algae from Shaokang's mouth, he began to implement the first aid method. However, half a minute passed, and Shaokang still showed no signs of waking up.

Fortunately, he was very patient, and took off half of Shaokang's clothes and continued to rescue. It's just that as soon as this shirt was taken off, half of Shaokang's body was exposed. Zhang looked at the birthmark on his chest and fainted suddenly.

Zhu bit his lip and didn't speak, but his breathing became heavier and heavier.

If it is really a jade pendant that can't prove Shaokang's identity, then adding this birthmark of the same position and shape at this moment, Zhu can be 100% sure that this child is her eldest son, Chen Shaokang.

When Master Chen saw it, it was like a thunderbolt. His heart rose and fell with the fisherman's rescuing hand. He was almost certain that this was his son when he first came out of the water, and at this point, there was no longer any doubt.

He thought about it a thousand times, fantasizing about the reunion of his master and son, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

Kang was tired and didn't rest until midnight last night, so he got up late today.

When she finished reading the information, she found that it was dinner time, but there was no trace of Shaokang. Sensitive, she immediately felt that something was wrong, and when she asked, she knew that Shaokang had gone out for a walk.

However, even if you are walking, you should not go home so late. Kang hurriedly took the two maids to the river.

Along the way, he naturally heard about Shaokang going down the river to save people, and saw that everyone was surrounded in one place, so he walked up. Originally, those people didn't want to get out of the way, they wanted to gather around to watch the excitement.

To say that today's incident is simply too bizarre, it is simply unheard of, and it is not worse than the drama. But as soon as he saw Kang's face full of anxiety and imposing appearance, he subconsciously let go.

Seeing that Kang's was so unreasonable, the Chen family frowned a little, but Kang's was a little strange. Before they could say anything, they heard Kang's say: "Shaokang? It's really Shaokang! What happened to you? ”

Master Chen endured his curiosity, thought of countless possibilities in his heart, and finally said, "This lady, do you know this child?" You are his ......"

Kang said anxiously: "I am the Mrs. Kang in your mouth, from the Yin family in the capital. This child's name is Shaokang, and I brought it back on the way to repay my vows. The child was abducted by Hanako when he was three or five years old, but he escaped. Since he couldn't find a home, he stayed under the nunnery every day to look for his relatives. I saw that this was not an option, so I took it with me so that he could find his relatives. ”

The dead face of Zhu seemed to be activated, and pulled Kang Shi and said, "Does he still remember his name?" What else did he tell you? After saying that, he held back his tears, and his lips were about to bite and bleed.

It's just that no matter how much she endured it, the tears still flowed out of her cheeks.

He said he only remembered three things, one was his mother's back, and he would always remember it. Therefore, once the child finds someone similar to his mother, he is desperate to help the other person. Once he met a woman who resembled the back of his own mother, and he gave her all the money he had begged for, just because the other woman lived in poverty. ”

Hearing this, Song cried even more fiercely. No wonder this kid stared at her before jumping off the river to save people, it turned out to be this reason.

The second is his name, he said that his grandmother and mother often called him Shaokang, so although Hanako sold him and gave him a new name, he still resolutely escaped. I also encourage myself not to forget. The third is that he remembers his mother's first-hand cooking, and his favorite food is ......"

As soon as Kang said this, the Chen family cried once.

When Kang was about to say Shaokang's favorite dish, Zhu muttered: "His favorite thing to eat is my pickled chicken thighs, saying that someone else pickled them...... It doesn't smell like that. ”

Although he was surprised why Song knew what he was going to say and was familiar with Shaokang's preferences, but after observing and listening to the onlookers, Kang instantly understood that the Zhu family in front of him was Shaokang's mother.
