Yesterday, Secretary Liu drove a hand tractor and forcibly escorted Li Jian and his family out of Changhong Brigade, preparing to send them to the commune to take a bus.

Unexpectedly, Li Jinyan started to have diarrhea before they arrived at the commune. Li Shenxing was young and in poor health, so he vomited and had diarrhea. After a while, his little face turned pale.

Secretary Liu did not dare to delay and drove the tractor like a racing car to take them to the health center.

When they arrived at the health center, the doctor asked what the children had eaten. Li Jian and Liu Ruyan hesitated and refused to say. The doctor got angry and said, "How can you be parents? You don't even know what your children have eaten? We need to prescribe the right medicine to stop the symptoms first."

The commune health center has limited technology and cannot perform gastric lavage, so the child can only take some medicine first. If the child accidentally ingests pesticides, he or she must be taken to the county hospital for treatment immediately.

Li Jian and Liu Ruyan each held one in their arms and still refused to speak. They thought that after taking croton seeds, the diarrhea would be gone.

After all, they wanted to use this to frame Sheng Tunan, so Li Jian and Liu Ruyan felt very guilty and did not dare to tell the truth.

Just then, Li Shenxing started vomiting again.

The doctor looked at the vomit on the ground and identified it carefully. He found that it was croton seeds that had not yet been digested. He immediately prescribed anti-diarrhea medicine for the two children.

"How can you be a parent? Why do you feed croton to such a young child? If a child is constipated, he should eat more vegetables. How can you feed croton to such a young child?"

The doctor wrote a prescription and asked the nurse to get the medicine. He shook his head and scolded Li Jian and Liu Ruyan. The young doctor was unaware of the viciousness of human nature and thought that the child's parents gave the child croton oil just to cure constipation.

Secretary Liu, who was standing nearby, frowned. Li Jian and Liu Ruyan were evasive. It was definitely not as simple as curing constipation.

Considering that Liu Ruyan insisted that Sheng Tunan give the child something to eat, Secretary Liu guessed that this family wanted to frame Sheng Tunan, and his face immediately turned dark.

At this time, the nurse took the medicine and gave it to the two children.

Li Jinyan was older, so after taking some medicine and resting for a while, his complexion looked better.

Li Shenxing had little nutrition in his mother's womb and was born weak and sickly. He took so many croton seeds that his body became very weak, and he kept vomiting. He took the medicine, but before it could take effect, he vomited it out again.

Li Jian and Liu Ruyan were so busy taking care of the two children that Secretary Liu couldn't bear to see them, so he stayed to help take care of them, running around to get water and buy food.

By the evening, the older one had almost recovered and no longer had diarrhea. Just when they were breathing a sigh of relief, the younger Li Shenxing suddenly turned pale and his breathing became weak.

Seeing that the child was in a bad condition, the doctor asked them to transfer to the county hospital again.

As early as when Li Shenxing could not take the medicine, the doctor suggested that they go to the county hospital. However, Liu Ruyan was reluctant to go because she was worried about the money. She said that he had only taken some croton seeds and would be fine after vomiting.

Unexpectedly, after delaying for a long time, there is now more exhalation than intake.

"I'll take you to the county hospital." Secretary Liu is also a father. He couldn't bear to see a child die in front of him, so he waved his hand and asked Li Jian to carry Li Shenxing onto the tractor.

Liu Ruyan hesitated: "Secretary Liu, we have no money. We spent a lot on the road. We only have a little money. If we take the child to the doctor, what will our family eat?"

"I'll give it to you, I'll give it to you, okay?" Seeing Xiao Shenxing's face getting paler and paler, Secretary Liu shouted anxiously.

Liu Ruyan nodded and asked Li Jian to carry the child into the car. At this moment, Li Shenxing twitched a few times, foamed at the mouth, and died in his father's arms.

"That's what happened." Secretary Liu shook his head and said firmly, "It really hurts others and yourself. Liu Ruyan gave the children croton seeds to frame you. I didn't expect that now their own little son has been killed."

Sheng Tunan and Zhan Xinyue looked at each other and felt that it was retribution.

Especially Zhan Xinyue, who had no sympathy for their family at all. In his previous life, because Li Shenxing was in poor health, Zhan Xinyue treated him better than Li Jinyan. When he was sick as a child, it was Zhan Xinyue who stayed with him, fed him medicine and wiped his body, and he was afraid to sleep all night.

Later, the two brothers Jinyan and Shenxing committed murder for money, and Li Shenxing showed no mercy.

In their previous life, it was Zhan Xinyue who treated them as her own children and devoted herself to them selflessly. However, these two ungrateful little bastards only remember their biological mother Liu Ruyan, who had never even washed their clothes since Zhan Xinyue came into the family.

In the final analysis, if they are not your own children, you cannot raise them well.

Zhan Xinyue was determined to have several biological children. Sons and daughters were fine, as long as they were her own.

"Hey, do you also think that Li Jian and Liu Ruyan are worse than pigs and dogs?" Secretary Liu saw that the two of them were silent, and thought that Sheng Tunan and Zhan Xinyue were embarrassed to curse, so he spoke for them.

"Yeah." Sheng Tunan nodded and asked, "Li Jian and Liu Ruyan's actions are considered murder of their own children, right? Have you reported it to the police?"

"Ah?" Secretary Liu was confused and shook his head.

Nowadays, there are many cases of fathers beating their sons to death or drowning their daughters, and no one reports it to the police.

Sheng Tunan remembered that it was only 1977 and the Child Protection Act had not yet been implemented, so he did not continue the topic and nodded to Secretary Liu: "Secretary Liu, Xinyue and I are back in the army. I'll trouble you and Aunt Xiumei to take care of grandma."

"Don't worry. Stay in the army and defend the country, and don't worry about home." Secretary Liu waved goodbye.

The journey to the island is not short, and it takes two days to drive. Everyone just wanted to return to the army as soon as possible, so they hardly stopped in the middle. They stopped to eat when they were hungry, and continued on their way after eating.

In order to arrive earlier, Sheng Tunan did not take the national highway but took a shortcut.

There are many trees and few pedestrians on the shortcut. Although the road is a bit rugged, it is no problem for military off-road vehicles to drive on it. It is very cool to travel under the dense shade of trees on both sides of the road.

Two military off-road vehicles were speeding on the road. Zhan Xinyue was sitting in the passenger seat, watching the moon slowly replace the sun. She kept looking at Sheng Tunan out of the corner of her eye. Long-distance driving was very tiring. The man had been driving all day, and it was already past seven o'clock in the evening. In case Sheng Tunan dozed off, she would have to remind him.

Suddenly, several gunshots rang out.

Sheng Tunan braked immediately, and the car behind him also stopped urgently.

Li Hu was already lying on the ground. Li Erhu took out a telescope and stood on the roof of the car. Wang Xinyi took a gun and quickly entered a state of combat readiness.

Hu Shengli sat in the driver's seat, holding the steering wheel, ready to start the car at any time.

Zhan Xinyue closed her eyes, carefully identified the situation and said, "The gunshots are to our southeast. There should be a fork in the road ahead."

At this time, Li Hu also jumped up from the ground and came over to report: "Commander, there was a gunfight in the southeast. Erhu saw our military vehicles through the telescope. The number of enemy troops is not clear for the time being, but their attack is very fierce."

Just then, a loud explosion was heard.

"Go and provide support quickly." Sheng Tunan said.

"Yes." Li Hu took the order and left. Hu Shengli drove past Sheng Tunan and rushed to the battlefield.

"Xinyue, are you staying here?" Sheng Tunan asked.

"No, I know martial arts and can protect myself. I will never be a burden." Zhan Xinyue took out a scimitar.

This was made by her using a sickle and can be used for self-defense.

"Okay." Sheng Tunan started the car. He was worried about leaving Zhan Xinyue here alone. What if some bad guys found her and took her hostage? The consequences would be disastrous.
