Chapter 394 Rescuing People on the Ice
When Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou returned to Yuanhua County, Xiong Li and Xi Lun had already completed their mission and returned to their unit.

Before the two left, Chu Mingzhou gave them a lot of hemostatic and blood-activating medicines. These medicines were all developed by Chu Mingzhou himself and were very effective.

Upon receiving news of the two's return, Su Sanquan and Yu Weiwei immediately went to Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou's home.

Looking at Su Sanquan and Yu Weiwei, who were dressed in a low-key manner, Su Nuannuan raised an eyebrow and teased them.

"It's been three months, why are you two dressed so casually?"

This word is not an exaggeration at all when applied to the two of them.

Since Su Sanquan and Yu Weiwei went to university, they've made all their own clothes, and the designs and styles are very fashionable. Unlike now, their clothes are all drab and dusty, like they've gone back to the pre-liberation era.

Yu Weiwei sighed and pulled Su Nuannuan aside.

"I didn't want to either. Nuannuan, you have no idea how terrible this period has been!"

Su Nuannuan's smile faded slightly.

She hadn't expected the situation in Heilongjiang Province to be so complicated.

"Was it led by Director Yu?"

Su Sanquan shook his head and said.

"No. Director Yu has planned this carefully, hasn't he? He always leaves himself an out."

Su Nuannuan nodded solemnly.

It's true that cultured people are afraid of encountering uncultured people.

The deputy director is uncultured, disorganized, and doesn't seem to care about offending anyone.

Su Nuannuan is most afraid of people who recklessly rush forward.

At this moment, Chu Mingzhou held Su Nuannuan's hand and comforted her.

"You don't need to worry about him. With me here, he won't hurt you."

Su Nuannuan's eyes lit up.

Yes! She also has a very capable husband.

If the other party causes her trouble, it's hard to say who will have a harder head.

Looking at Chu Mingzhou, Su Nuannuan instantly felt at ease again.

The first thing Su Nuannuan did upon returning was to call Chu Wenzhu and Ji Lan, who were in Beijing, to tell them about Zhao Yalan and Duan Huaying's recent situation and to reassure them not to worry.

After hearing that Zhao Yalan and Duan Huaying were both safe and sound, Chu Wenzhu felt relieved.

After finishing discussing their matter, Chu Wenzhu whispered a reminder to Su Nuannuan.

"You and Mingzhou should be careful."

Su Nuannuan already knew about this. Therefore, it didn't affect her as much.

"Dad, I understand. This won't affect us much. You and Mom should be careful in Beijing."

Chu Wenzhu felt relieved to hear that Su Nuannuan had a plan in mind.

The two chatted for a while longer before hanging up.

This incident did not have much impact on Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou's lives.

The next day, Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou returned to Hongqi Village with the local specialties they brought back from the Southern Province.

At this time, Heilongjiang Province was still covered in ice and snow, and most people were staying indoors to hibernate.

As Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou entered the village, they could see a little boy going up and down inside an ice hole by the river.

Su Nuannuan quickly tugged at Chu Mingzhou's sleeve and exclaimed in surprise.

"Mingzhou, look, isn't there someone over there?" Chu Mingzhou nodded, quickly threw the things in his hand on the ground, and ran towards the riverbank.

Su Nuannuan did the same thing, following behind Chu Mingzhou.

The two soon arrived at the riverbank.

The upper reaches of this small river are the most famous major river in Heilongjiang Province. Every day, the river flows continuously with water.

Many people from Hongqi Village come here to do laundry, fish, etc.

However, the river was deep, and the village children dared not approach it. Su Nuannuan hadn't expected any children to be so bold as to come to the riverbank in the dead of winter.

Although the river is frozen over, the ice is not thick in some places, and it is easy to slip and fall when you step on it.

Moreover, some unethical people like to throw bricks onto the ice, creating ice holes. If someone falls into an ice hole, it's very difficult to get out.

As the two approached, they indeed found a little boy stuck in the ice hole, neither up nor down.

Next to it, there was a small bamboo basket containing some small fish and shrimp. It was clear that they were winter fishing.

Chu Mingzhou took off his cotton-padded coat and used both hands to pull the little boy upwards.

Fortunately, the little boy had fallen not far from the shore, and Chu Mingzhou easily pulled him up.

Seeing that the little boy's cotton-padded jacket was soaked with water, Su Nuannuan quickly stepped forward, took off the little boy's clothes, and wrapped the cotton-padded jacket that Chu Mingzhou had taken off around the little boy's body.

Seeing the cotton-padded jacket on the little boy, Su Nuannuan realized what was happening and felt a little embarrassed.

She quickly took out a cotton-padded coat from her storage space and said to Chu Mingzhou.

“Mingzhou, it’s cold, you should put this on quickly.”

Chu Mingzhou smiled helplessly and then took the cotton-padded coat.

Perhaps it was because Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou rescued him in time, the little boy did not choke on the water. He just sat on the ground blankly, letting Su Nuannuan do whatever she wanted to him, without any reaction.

Judging from the little boy's expression, Su Nuannuan knew he was terrified.

When people are extremely frightened, they are prone to losing their focus. In ancient terms, this is called "the three souls and seven spirits leaving the body."

Su Nuannuan quickly fed the little boy some spiritual spring water, then hugged him, gently patted his back, and coaxed him.

"Baby, be good, don't be afraid~"

Perhaps because Su Nuannuan's voice sounded like someone he was familiar with, the boy quickly regained his senses. Then, he burst into tears, his little hands clutching Su Nuannuan's clothes tightly.

Su Nuannuan sighed, picked up the little boy, and said to Chu Mingzhou who was standing beside her.

"Let's go back to our parents' place first."

Chu Mingzhou nodded and picked up the boy's basket and the gifts they had brought.

After walking for a while, Chu Mingzhou asked.

Are you tired? Do you want me to carry you?

The boy was seven or eight years old, but he was not light at all.

Before Su Nuannuan could answer, the little boy buried his head firmly in her shoulder, his whole body filled with rejection.

Su Nuannuan patted the boy's shoulder with amusement and said.

"Little one, I saved you."

Knowing that the little boy was unwilling, Su Nuannuan did not force him.

"No need. I can manage."

Fortunately, Su Nuannuan had a foundation in the field, and performing surgeries every day was a form of exercise for her, so holding a small child was relatively easy for her.
