Transmigrated as the Mother of the Abused Male Lead in a Tragic Novel

Chapter 19

Ding Sha hugged her belly and couldn't bend down, so she quickly asked Zhuang Auntie to go see if that was really a child.

Zhuang Auntie had been waiting to pick the person up from the ground. It was a child who looked three or four years old. His clothes were dirty and his little face was as dirty as a calico cat.

Zhuang Auntie took the child into the house. Ding Sha struggled to call Xiao Jun out in a hoarse voice.

"Where did this child come from?" Xiao Jun was shocked.

"Picked up at the door," Ding Sha said absentmindedly, tightly grasping his sleeve.

Pregnant women can't stand to see children suffer. Seeing the child like this made her heart ache.

Xiao Jun patted her reassuringly, "Don't worry, I and Auntie will take him to the hospital. You and Sister-in-law stay at home waiting for us. I'll call you."

Ding Sha knew that if she insisted on going, it would make Xiao Jun worry, so she reluctantly agreed, "You must call me."

Xiao Jun hmmmed, and Zhuang Auntie saw the child's clothes were thin. She went back to the room to grab a blanket to wrap him up and held him in her arms, "Poor thing, it's so cold but he's only wearing a single cloth!"

Xiao Jun called a car. Ding Sha transferred 20,000 yuan to his mobile phone, "This is for medical expenses. Let me know if it's not enough."

Xiao Jun kissed her forehead, "I know, don't worry at home."

The car arrived, Xiao Jun waved to Ding Sha and took Zhuang Auntie into the car, heading to the nearest pediatric hospital.

Zhuang Auntie couldn't hold him for too long. Xiao Jun took over and ran into the emergency department, "Hello, this child has fainted."

The little nurse quickly took him to the bed and put the child down. Another nurse ran to call the doctor.

Xiao Jun breathed a sigh of relief and stood quietly with Zhuang Auntie waiting.

The doctor came to examine him, "Nothing serious, probably just hungry."

"Do a blood test, hang up some IV fluids, and he'll wake up after a while."

The doctor handed the prescription to Xiao Jun, "Are you the child's family? Go pay the fee and set up a medical record for the child."

Xiao Jun took the prescription, "I don't know this child. He fainted at my shop door and asked me to take him here."

"The fee is no problem, but the medical record will probably have to wait until he wakes up and asks his name."

The doctor pushed up his glasses, "Then there's no hurry. Why don't you sit for a while too."

"Let's see if we can contact his parents when the child wakes up."

Xiao Jun hmmmed. He went to pay the fees first.

The doctor came back after finishing his work and saw a stack of receipts in his hand, knowing that he had paid the fees. He tsked.

"You can wait until his parents come to pay. No need to pay first yourself."

It wasn't that he was petty, but he had really seen parents who dodged medical fees before.

Seeing that the young man didn't seem wealthy either, best not let him get scammed. Also, looking at the child's dirty clothes, fainting from hunger, his parents were unlikely to be good people either.

Xiao Jun shook his head, "I paid first."

He didn't have much hope of finding the child's parents. He couldn't let the hospital foot the bill anyway.

It wasn't that he was kind, he was just afraid that the hospital would resent them when Ding Sha came to give birth later.

Although he knew it was unlikely, he just couldn't help thinking all kinds of nonsense.

Xiao Jun sent Ding Sha the specifics on his phone. Zhuang Auntie borrowed some wet wipes, soaked them in warm water, and wiped the child's face.

"Oh, what a handsome boy!" With his face wiped clean, the little boy's face was revealed.

Zhuang Auntie wiped his uninjected hand, "Later let Ding Sha see this cute boy too. If she gives birth to such a good-looking child, it would be wonderful."

Speaking of which, she chatted with Xiao Jun about some rumors circulating in the village about tips for pregnant women.

Like pregnant women eating more grapes, the baby's eyes will be bigger...

Like pregnant women looking at beautiful people more, the baby will also be better looking...

Xiao Jun listened with great interest.

Xiao Shitou groggily felt like he was lying in a warm place. He even felt his tummy wasn't so hungry anymore.

Is it brother?

Did brother find me and bring me home?

He opened his eyes in a daze, seeing a snow-white ceiling, his hand hurt a little.

It seemed someone was holding his hand to warm it.

He stared blankly at the strange auntie and brother smiling and chatting by the bed.

There were many people here, and it was noisy, but Xiao Shitou wasn't afraid at all.

Zhuang Auntie felt the small hand in her palm move, looked back, and saw a pair of misty big eyes staring at her.

The little guy even called her Auntie with a sweet voice.

Zhuang Auntie happily exclaimed, "What's wrong little one? Does it hurt anywhere?"

Xiao Shitou shook his head, touched his tummy, "Tummy hungry."

"Oh my, naughty child," Zhuang Auntie felt distressed stroking his little face, "After this IV we'll go home to eat."

Seeing him awake, Xiao Jun went to find the doctor. The doctor examined him again, looked at the blood test report, "No problem, it's normal for a child to faint when hungry."

"He can leave after the IV. There's no issue."

He smiled and asked Xiao Shitou, "Little one, what's your name?"

"Xiao Shitou." The little guy answered in a soft voice.

"How old are you?"

"Four years old."

"Good boy," the doctor pinched his little face, "What about your dad and mom?"

Xiao Shitou lowered his head and didn't speak.

The doctor asked again, but Xiao Shitou still didn't speak.

The doctor didn't ask anymore. He pulled Xiao Jun aside, "This child was probably abandoned by his parents right?"

Xiao Jun shook his head, "Don't know. I'll take him home first. It's too late today. I'll go to the police station tomorrow to see if I can contact his parents."

"Alright, thanks for the trouble, brother." The doctor patted his shoulder. Just as he finished speaking, he got called away.

The nurse removed the IV for him. Zhuang Auntie wrapped him in a blanket, "Let's go home!"

Xiao Shitou obediently lay on her shoulder, looking at Xiao Jun somewhat fearfully.

Xiao Jun didn't speak, taking out his phone to send Ding Sha a message.

The light at the shop door was still on. As soon as they entered, they saw Gong Sister-in-law supporting Ding Sha persuading her to sit down.

Xiao Jun strode over to hold Ding Sha.

"You're back?" Ding Sha looked at him with a smile, "Cold?"

"Not cold." Xiao Jun frowned, grabbing her icy hands, "Why aren't you inside?"

"I just can't sit still." Ding Sha coquettishly made excuses.

Zhuang Auntie put the little guy on a chair. Ding Sha poured him a small cup of hot milk, "Little one's awake?"

Xiao Shitou blinked staring at Ding Sha for a while, "Fairy Sister!"

Ding Sha smiled stroking his head, "Hungry?"

Xiao Shitou drank a sip of the sweet milk, touched his tummy again, and nodded, "Hungry."

Ding Sha pulled Xiao Jun along, "I made dumpling soup. It's just right since everyone's been waiting half the night. Why don't we have a midnight snack together?"

Xiao Jun glared at her, "You're still cooking!"

Ding Sha shook his arm.

Xiao Jun helplessly went to the kitchen to ladle the dumpling soup.

Opening the pot lid, a burst of appetizing steam rushed up. The colors in the pot were distinct, red tomatoes, golden egg flowers, green vegetables, and black wood ear strips, with white dumplings floating in it.

It wasn't very fancy or expensive.

But it would arouse a craving in the middle of the night.

Perhaps it was the taste of mom's cooking, or the smell of someone else cooking when playing crazily as a child.

But there was no denying that when you smelled and saw it, you would suddenly wake up - ah, really hungry.

Everyone squeezed around a table drinking the steaming hot dumpling soup. Xiao Shitou held a small spoon feeding himself fragrantly from the bowl.

Gong Sister-in-law couldn't help but say, "Ding Sha's skills really are amazing."

Indeed, although the dishes Xiao Jun made were also very tasty, after eating Ding Sha's dishes, his seemed not as good as hers.

The sound of slurping filled the hall. Before they finished eating, urgent knocking was heard at the door.

"Bang bang bang!"
