Chapter 360 Lost
Chapter 360 Lost
"Sister-in-law, this is not my child. I gave birth to a boy, and this is a girl."
"My child was replaced."
After a moment of extreme panic, Xu Manyue pinched her palms tightly. The stimulating pain gradually calmed her down. Combined with Ge Dahua's abnormality, she was the first to suspect this person.
Mrs. Shen's mind went blank. She subconsciously reached out to pull open the quilt of the child in Xu Manyue's arms and saw that it was indeed a girl.
"How...how could this happen?"
Li Wenjuan, who was standing by, was also stunned. She never expected that one day something like swapping children would happen to her.
This... this is too outrageous.
How could there be such a person?
Xu Manyue looked up at Sister Shen and said, "Sister Shen, think carefully, has the child ever left your sight since he came out of the delivery room?"
Mrs. Shen was extremely panicked, her head was blank, and the more panicked she became, the less she could remember anything.
"Let me think... I remember when the baby was brought out of the delivery room, he was handed directly to me. Later, when you were pushed out by the nurse, I carried the baby to the ward to see you and stay with you."
"Even when I sleep, I let my child sleep next to me..."
Suddenly, Mrs. Shen slapped her thigh and said, "Oh, I remember now. I woke up early this morning before daybreak because I had to pee and had to go to the bathroom. I didn't take care of the child."
"But it was only for a short while. Could it be that the child was replaced during that time?"
Xu Manyue's heart sank. "Did you see anyone at that time, or do you suspect anyone?"
Although she was also extremely anxious, the only way to find her child as soon as possible was to confirm the scope of suspicion.
Panicking won't solve the problem.
Mrs. Shen touched her head and thought about it, and she really thought of a suspicious figure.
Her face suddenly turned ugly. "It's her. It must be Ge Dahua. When I come back, I'll see her leaving in a hurry."
"That damn woman always wanted a son, and now she gave birth to a girl. She must have switched the babies while I wasn't paying attention."
"Third sister-in-law, I'm going to report it to the police. Have them arrest that damned old woman. Let's see if she dares to steal someone else's son again."
Hearing this, Xu Manyue's face turned cold, and the six points of suspicion in her heart turned into nine points.
It’s probably Ge Dahua.
"Sister-in-law, please call the doctors and nurses who delivered Ge Dahua yesterday, and then go to the Public Security Bureau. There's a man named Wang Jianjun in the county Public Security Bureau. He was Jingming's former comrade-in-arms. Now he's retired and serving as the captain of the Public Security Bureau. Go ask him for help."
It is always much better to have acquaintances to help with things, not to mention that she had just given birth and could not move much, and her sister-in-law was a person with no ideas, so she could only rely on Shen Jingming's comrades in the county.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Mrs. Shen hurried out.
Li Wenjuan, who was standing by, thought for a moment and said, "Man Yue, I'll ask my husband to help me find out. He has some connections in his family and might be able to help."
As new mothers, we naturally understand the pain of suddenly losing a child.
Xu Manyue felt depressed, confused and blocked.
But when she heard this, she still forced a smile at Li Wenjuan, "No need, with the help of the child's father's comrades, we should be able to find it back soon."
Ninety percent of the time, Ge Dahua was responsible for this. As a woman who had just given birth, she certainly couldn't walk far, and her home was also in this county.
It is more reliable to ask the police for help with matters like this. Moreover, with the help of Wang Jianjun, the captain of the Public Security Bureau, Ge Dahua should not be able to escape.
After a while, the nurse who delivered Ge Dahua yesterday came over. After calling her, Mrs. Shen ran straight to the police station to look for someone.
Soon, two nurses arrived.
Xu Manyue's eyes instantly turned red, and she handed the child in her arms to the nurse.
"Nurse, my baby was switched at the hospital early this morning. Could you please help me check if this baby is Ge Dahua's?"
Although newborns all look similar, records are still kept of whether the child is a boy or a girl, as well as the child's basic condition.
The two nurses were also shocked when they heard this. They hurriedly brought the child over to check on him, and their faces gradually became serious.
"This child is indeed Ge Dahua's."
Ge Dahua's child is a girl, and she was born weak and sickly, so she is easy to identify.
Xu Manyue tightly grasped the corner of the quilt, her emotions surging in her heart. It was really Ge Dahua.
Seeing her like this, the nurse couldn't help but sigh.
"You just gave birth, so it's important to get some rest. As for your child and this other child, our hospital will also help report to the police and have them send someone to look for them."
"Don't worry. You need a letter of introduction to go anywhere these days. Ge Dahua can't run away. Our hospital has records of where she lives, so we can help find the child quickly."
Xu Manyue's eyes became redder, and she choked up, "Nurse, thank you... Thank you for helping me find my child."
Then she looked at the child in the nurse's arms and paused.
"As for this child, the little quilt she's wrapped in was specially sewn by me, stitch by stitch, for her. The cotton inside was bought with the cotton coupons her father sent back from the army."
"Can you... leave this little quilt here for my child to cover him with when he comes back?"
She was very worried because her child had not been found yet.
Although she would not vent her anger on Ge Dahua's child, she would not allow her to stay by her side, let alone allow her to take possession of her child's things.
When the two nurses heard this, a hint of sympathy flashed in their eyes.
"Okay, wait a moment. We'll find another small quilt to cover the child."
It turns out she is a military wife. No wonder her husband was not around when she gave birth.
Her husband was out there defending the country, and she worked hard at home to give birth to a child. But the child suffered such a thing right after being born. It's really pitiful. They should try their best to help if they can.
After the two nurses changed the quilt for Ge Dahua's child, they returned the soft and fluffy quilt made by Xu Manyue.
It’s true, the ones they make themselves are really good, warm and fluffy, and the material is also good.
You can tell at first glance that it is made with care and is full of love for children.
As for the small quilt they had just covered Ge Dahua's child with, it was just something they found, and its quality was not at all comparable to other people's.
Xu Manyue took the small blanket and put it aside, then smiled gratefully at the two nurses, "Comrade nurses, thank you for your help."
Suddenly, she changed the subject and said, "If the child is not found by today, I want to complete the discharge procedures as soon as possible."
She clearly knew who took her child away and knew that there was a high chance that the child would be found, but she still couldn't wait any longer and was still very worried.
Afraid of something unexpected happening.
