Chapter 556: Chapter 556: None of Them Are Good People
When the tools arrived, the village chief had already instructed the male members present to dismantle the stone walls around the latrine.
Seeing Ermazi bring the tools, the village chief pointed around the pit: "Dig around the area, make space for someone to go down and lift up the broken slate pieces."
Upon hearing this, many of the members immediately took several steps back; the task was too dirty and disgusting for them, thinking about having to step into filth to rescue someone made them nauseous.
The village chief feared that delaying even a moment, Wu Bingjie’s life might be at risk, since it was unclear where he was injured: "Stop dawdling. If something happens to Wu, forget about being advanced this year."
After speaking, he personally named a few people: "Be quick about it."
Then turned to the people at the Zhiqing Point: "Bring over the flashlights and give them some light."
Seeing the people he named had already started working, he quickly walked over to Wu Bingjie: "Wu, hold on a bit longer, we’ll get you out soon."
Thinking of something, he quickly stood up and rushed to the Zhiqing Point leader: "Go get a thick piece of clothing for him, drape it on him."
If he were to catch cold, it would be even more troublesome.
With more people, there is more power; they finally managed, after a lot of effort, to lift the broken slates clamping Wu Bingjie’s leg and pulled him up.
Fortunately, it’s winter now. If this happened in any other season, even if the village chief gave the order, no one would want to go down to rescue him.
The village chief called the breeder from the animal husbandry facility: "Old Qiao, quickly bring the cart over."
Turning to the Zhiqing Point leader: "Arrange for two zhiqing to accompany him, quickly get him to the infirmary at the Agricultural Reclamation Group."
When Yunyi heard the commotion outside the courtyard, she extended her spiritual power to look over, only then realizing why Huo Jingrui was in such a hurry to go back and wash his hands earlier.
She felt relieved that Doctor Qiu was on duty tonight. If it were someone else, she would have been called to help with the rescue.
Retracting her spiritual power, she no longer concerned herself with the progress at the infirmary, tidied up a bit, and then went to rest.
The next day, she had just gotten up when she heard Huo Jingrui’s knocking: "I’m coming."
Yunyi looked toward the man: "Why so early?"
Huo Jingrui’s eyes were full of tenderness: "Finally got some time to be with you, naturally, I should do a bit more."
He raised the tofu pudding in his hand: "Didn’t you say you wanted to eat tofu pudding before? I got it first thing in the morning from the place that makes tofu. Come and try it."
Seeing he had a bag of fried dough sticks in his other hand, Yunyi couldn’t help but laugh: "Come in quickly, it’s cold outside."
Huo Jingrui came out of the kitchen with bowls, and Yunyi had also freshened up.
Watching Yunyi scoop and eat a spoonful: "How does it taste?"
Suppressing her random thoughts, Yunyi nodded: "It’s alright."
Not until they finished eating did Huo Jingrui bring up last night’s event: "His leg got caught by stones and fractured, Doctor Qiu helped to set it, but as for how well it will recover, that’s uncertain."
Yunyi’s face remained calm: "That’s the lesson he deserved. If I hadn’t arrived in time that night, who knows what the outcome for my cousin would have been. Even though it didn’t go as he planned, without his suggestion, how could Zhang Wenjuan have been used by anyone?"
Once he’s taught a lesson, it will soon be time to deal with Zhang Wenjuan too; none of them are any good.
What she didn’t expect was overhearing the conversation of those two fools at work, making her feel that her actions last night were too lenient; she should have just crippled him directly.
