Courtyard House: Purchasing Agents' Comeback from the Great Famine

Seeing how well-behaved and sensible Ya Ya was, Qin Jingru smiled and said, "Ya Ya, you helped your sister with the work, so this is your reward. Take it and eat it."

Without saying a word, Qin Jingru stuffed two White Rabbit milk candies into Yaya's little hand.

"Thank you, Sister Jingru."

Ya Ya smiled sweetly, feeling very happy. Instead of eating them right away, she put two White Rabbit milk candies into her pocket.

"Yaya, why aren't you eating?" Qin Jingru asked curiously.

"Hehe, Sister Jingru, I want to take this back and eat it with my mom. She hasn't been feeling well these past few days and keeps feeling dizzy. I want to help her recover."

Upon hearing this, Qin Jingru sighed softly and gently rubbed Ya Ya's little head.

"Go have fun."

Goodbye, Sister Jingru.

After saying that, Ya Ya ran out with her short little legs.

Ya Ya returned to the house and saw her mother pasting matchboxes. She proudly pulled out two White Rabbit milk candies and said in her childish voice, "Mommy, look, what's this?"

Aunt Wu's face turned angry when she saw the two White Rabbit milk candies.

"Ya Ya, didn't I tell you not to take things from Sister Jingru without permission?"

"Mom, I was wiping the table for Jingru when she insisted on giving it to me."

Ya Ya blinked her big eyes, looking adorable and innocent.

Aunt Wu patted Ya Ya's head and smiled, "Ya Ya, your sister Jing Ru tricked you. Next time you help Jing Ru clean, you can't accept anything from her, understand?"

Ya Ya nodded obediently: "Mommy, I understand. Mommy, here are two White Rabbit milk candies for you. I heard from Sister Lili that eating candy will make you feel less dizzy."

Upon hearing this, Aunt Wu burst into tears instantly. She wiped away her tears, forcing them not to fall, and gently patted Ya Ya's head, smiling slightly:

"Yaya, Mommy's dizziness is gone, Mommy's all better now, you can eat by yourself."

"Really?"

"Um."

"Great! Mom's finally better!"

Hearing her mother's affirmation, Ya Ya jumped up happily and ran out to play.

As soon as Ya Ya arrived at the central courtyard and unwrapped the candy, Banggeng emerged from a corner and grabbed Ya Ya's collar.

"Ya Ya, give me your White Rabbit milk candy."

"No, this was given to me by Sister Jingru."

Ya Ya quickly put the White Rabbit milk candy into her pocket and tightly covered the pocket, afraid that Bang Geng would snatch her White Rabbit milk candy.

"You dare refuse? I'll beat you to death!"

Banggeng pushed hard, knocking Yaya to the ground. He straddled Yaya and reached into her pocket for the White Rabbit candy.

"Waaaah, I won't give it to her! Jingru gave it to me!"

Ya Ya was pushed down, and in order to protect the White Rabbit candy, a small piece of skin was rubbed off her hand, which made her cry loudly in pain.

Unfortunately, Banggeng wasn't one to show mercy to women. He pried open Yaya's little hands and pulled out two White Rabbit milk candies from her pocket.

"Hehe, there are actually two?"

Banggeng unwrapped the candy, popped a White Rabbit milk candy into his mouth, and prepared to go to the backyard to play with the ants.

Hearing the crying, the older women in the courtyard came out to check. Old Hu, who was the first to arrive, saw that it was just children playing around and ignored it.

"Waaaah, don't steal my White Rabbit candy! It was given to me by Sister Jingru!"

When the White Rabbit milk candy was snatched away, Ya Ya cried even louder. She clung tightly to Bang Geng, refusing to let him leave.

Hearing Ya Ya's cries, Aunt Wu from the front yard ran over, shouting:

"Bang Geng, how dare you bully Ya Ya! Let her go!"

Ya Ya clung to the stick, refusing to let go, and cried, "Give me back my White Rabbit candy! If you don't give it back, I won't let you go!"

"Get out of here."

With a forceful push, Banggeng knocked Yaya down. Coincidentally, there was a half-brick right where Yaya fell, and her head hit the brick.

Ya Ya only felt a sharp pain in her head before losing consciousness.

Qin Jingru was washing clothes in the house when she heard Ya Ya crying. She put down the clothes and ran out, where she saw Ya Ya being pushed to the ground.

She rushed to Ya Ya's side and saw that Ya Ya had fainted and was bleeding from the back of her head. She immediately cried out urgently:

"Aunt Wu, come quick! Ya Ya has fainted!"

When Banggeng saw that Yaya had fainted, he knew he had caused trouble and tried to run home.

At that moment, Aunt Wu ran over from the front yard, grabbed Ya Ya, and screamed wildly:

"Yaya, Yaya, what's wrong? Wake up! Don't scare Mommy!"

"Aunt Wu, Ya Ya was pushed down by a stick and hit her head. Her head is still bleeding. We need to take her to the hospital quickly," Qin Jingru said hurriedly.

"Yes, Aunt Wu, hurry and take Yaya to the hospital."

"Yes, yes, take them to the hospital."

Aunt Wu looked at Banggeng, who was running home, and her eyes showed anger.

Soon, Aunt Wu stopped the bleeding for a while and pinched Ya Ya's philtrum. When she found that pinching the philtrum was useless, she picked up Ya Ya and ran towards the hospital with Qin Jingru.

"Bang Geng is such a troublemaker. He's really outrageous. He stole my sweet potatoes the other day, and today he beat Ya Ya so badly she ended up in the hospital. I don't know how Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu raised her."

"Yeah, Banggeng even made my Erleng cry yesterday."

"Alas, I think Banggeng has been corrupted by Jia Zhangshi," Old Hu sighed.

at the same time.

Banggeng ran home but didn't see his mother. Only Xiaodang was playing in the mud at home. He didn't know what to do, so he could only obediently lock the door and wait for his parents to come home.

As they walked out of the courtyard, Qin Jingru noticed that Aunt Wu was walking too slowly, so she quickly said, "Aunt Wu, I'm strong, I'll carry Yaya, you keep up and walk faster."

"Yes, Jingru, thank you so much this time."

"Aunt Wu, don't be so polite. I like Ya Ya very much too. The most important thing now is to get Ya Ya cured."

"Um."

Taking Ya Ya from Qin Jingru, she scooped her up horizontally and ran towards the hospital. Ya Ya's weight was practically negligible to her.

She ran with Ya Ya in her arms, and Aunt Wu chased after her, but she couldn't catch up with Qin Jingru.

In just twenty minutes, Qin Jingru arrived at the hospital carrying Ya Ya. Aunt Wu arrived at the hospital already covered in sweat and panting heavily.

"Doctor, doctor, please help!"

As soon as Qin Jingru arrived at the hospital, she started shouting, and soon a doctor in a white coat came over.

"Quickly, put the child on the resuscitation bed."

Qin Jingru placed Yaya on the bed, and the doctor quickly wheeled Yaya into the emergency room.

When Aunt Wu saw Ya Ya being wheeled into the emergency room, she burst into tears.

"Yaya, my dear daughter, you absolutely cannot get into trouble! If anything were to happen to you, how could your mother live with herself!"

"Aunt Wu, don't worry, I believe Ya Ya will be alright."

Qin Jingru patted Aunt Wu's shoulder and gently comforted her. Actually, she was also very worried about Ya Ya. Even pinching her philtrum hadn't woken Ya Ya up. Sigh! She hoped Ya Ya would be alright.
