People working nearby heard it and hurried to the river. Daniu, who had just come out of the house, asked, "Auntie, what happened? Is there a quarrel or a fight in someone's family?"

The aunt who heard the sound stopped and said, "No, they said Xiaozhuang accidentally fell into the river."

Da Niu was shocked. "What? Xiao Zhuang fell into the river?"

The big bull ran quickly towards the river, and even with the help of crutches, he could hardly fly.

When Yang and Lin Cuicui heard about it, they all came. Someone said, "There's a grain farmer here. Aren't you a good swimmer? Go and save them!"

The people who came were all women, none of whom could swim, and the people in the water were so bottomless.

They could only watch worriedly. Lin Cuicui covered her head and said, "I haven't been feeling well these days. How can I have the energy to save people? Let's wait for the village chief and others to come!"

Is it because she heard that Xiaozhuang fell into the river that she didn't want to rescue him?

At this time, Da Niu rushed into the river to rescue people, and the men in the village and the village chief also came.

When Da Niu went into the water, Baoer could no longer struggle and began to sink to the bottom of the water.

The village chief led the men to the riverside and shouted, "Daniu, be careful!"

The timid woman was still watching from the high road, while the brave one followed the village chief and others to the river.

Daniu dived down. Although the water was clear, it was bottomless here, so he couldn't see clearly even in the sunlight.

Da Niu reached down to the place where Baoer sank, and finally grabbed Baoer's clothes when he was about to suffocate.

Da Niu took Baoer's hand and swam towards the surface of the water, while the people on the shore watched nervously.

On the way back, Li Guihua heard that Xiaozhuang had fallen into the water, so she dropped her hoe and ran to the river.

Just then, Da Niu came out of the water holding a child. Li Guihua saw the familiar clothes and ran to the river crying.

He accidentally sprained his ankle but didn't care about the pain, nor did he carefully look at the size of the child in Da Niu's arms.

The big cow's leg had not healed to begin with, and carrying a child weighing dozens of kilograms out of the water only aggravated the injury.

Daniu endured the pain and carried Bao'er to the shore and put him on the ground. The village chief hurriedly pulled He Fu and said, "Quick, come and see if there is any hope."

He Fu squatted down and took Baoer's pulse. Looking at Baoer's belly which was round due to drinking too much water, he shook his head and said, "No pulse, no heartbeat."

Li Guihua came running and heard that there was no heartbeat. She cried and threw herself beside Baoer, "Xiao Zhuang, Xiao Zhuang, Uncle He, he must be saved. Please save him quickly! How can I live without Xiao Zhuang!"

He Fu sighed, "Oh, if only I had arrived a little earlier, what a pity!"

Li Guihua hugged Baoer and cried until she almost fainted. Daniu said palely, "It's all my fault. If only I had been faster, everything would have been fine."

The village chief said, "Xiao Zhuangniang, take care of yourself. You still have a son and a daughter. You should take them back first!"

Li Guihua nodded and said, "Yes, Xiaoyue, Xiaoyue can definitely be saved."

Li Guihua wiped the tears from her face. She had hugged Baoer too tightly just now, pressing on her stomach, causing foam to flow out of Baoer's mouth.

Li Guihua brushed away the messy hair on Baoer's face and saw that it was He Baoer. Li Guihua thought she was dazzled, but after looking carefully she said, "This is not Xiaozhuang, it's He Baoer."

The village chief and his men also saw it clearly. He Youcai, who was following beside them, shouted to the heights, "Old Third, this is your He Baoer. It's He Baoer who fell into the water."

The sound was so loud that everyone heard it and looked at Lin Cuicui. "Aunt, your second brother said it was He Baoer who fell into the water, not Xiao Zhuang."

Lin Cuicui's head was buzzing, and she ran down in a trance, saying, "No, it's impossible, it can't be my Bao'er, it's not."

Yang was also in disbelief after hearing this, but how could her son say such nonsense?

She also walked down unsteadily. When Li Guihua saw that it was not Xiaozhuang, she let go of her hand. Only then did she realize that Da Niu seemed to be in great pain.

Especially his frighteningly pale face. Li Guihua hurriedly handed the crutches on the ground to Daniu, "Daniu, are you okay? Your leg? Uncle He, quickly check on Daniu to see if his leg is injured again."

Daniu, who was holding onto crutches, could hardly stand. He Fu helped Daniu sit down, checked his leg, and took his pulse. "I can't see anything wrong with the injury on his leg. His breathing is rapid and his pulse is disordered. It must be a bone injury! I'm afraid that girl He Yue needs to come back to take a look at it for you."

Li Guihua said, "Daniu, I'll help you go home first. Change your clothes and wait for He Yue to come back. Go back and drink a bowl of the medicine He Yue brewed. You look pale. Can you still walk?"

Daniu used his crutches to force himself to say, "I can walk."

Li Guihua went home with Da Niu. Lin Cuicui fainted from crying while holding He Baoer. The village chief asked He Youcai and several other people to take He Baoer and Lin Cuicui home.

Yang also followed crying. Someone among the first people to come and watch said, "What a pity! If Lin Cuicui had rescued her in time, He Baoer would not have died."

"That's right. She watched her son desperately struggling there and did nothing to help him. I'm afraid she will feel guilty for the rest of her life."

A group of people followed her to Yang's house. Yang was still in pain from losing her grandson and didn't pay attention to what others said.

Li Guihua brought Da Niu back home, and when she opened the door, she saw Xiao Zhuang bandaging her.

Xiao Zhuang was so frightened that his hands trembled and the gauze he had just wrapped fell off. Xiao Zhuang stood up and said nervously, "Mom, how did you come back?"

Li Guihua hurried forward and hugged Xiaozhuang tightly. "Xiaozhuang, you scared me to death. Tell me, did you wear your new clothes out to show off?"

Xiao Zhuang quickly admitted his mistake, "Mom, I was wrong. I shouldn't have shown off and lost my clothes."

Li Guihua hugged Xiao Zhuang and said, "Okay, I'm glad you're okay."

Xiao Zhuang was still wondering why his mother was not mean to him or beat him today.

Daniu sat on a stool and asked, "Did He Baoer hurt you?"

Xiao Zhuang nodded and said, "Yes, they stole my new clothes and beat me."

Li Guihua looked at Xiaozhuang's head distressedly and asked, "Did you make this medicine yourself?"

Xiao Zhuang nodded and said, "Yeah! I learned it from my sister. I'm awesome, right?"

Li Guihua was speechless. "Where's your elder brother?"

Xiao Zhuang said dejectedly again, "He was deceived by He Baoer and may still be at the entrance of the village!"

Li Guihua wondered, "What is he doing at the village entrance?"

Xiao Zhuang said, "He Baoer lied to him and said his sister was back, so he believed it."

Li Guihua understood that Dazhuang was still thinking about his younger sister, so she poured a bowl of medicine from the fire pit to Daniu before bandaging Xiaozhuang.

Xiao Zhuang looked at Da Niu's soaking wet clothes and asked, "Did Da Niu go to the river to take a bath? Why are his clothes soaked?"

Li Guihua sighed and said, "He Baoer wore your new clothes while playing by the river and fell into the deep water and drowned. It was your brother Daniu who carried her out."

Xiao Zhuang was surprised and said, "What? He Baoer died? He was the only one left? Where are Xiao Pang and the other three? They weren't together? Why didn't they save him?"

Li Guihua shook her head. "I didn't see them. I wonder where they went?"
