Chapter 4: Twins
"Eldest sister, just now the younger sister wiped her face with a towel! Look, look, the towel is still on her hand. Lixia hurriedly wiped the tears in his eyes and said happily to Lichun.
When Lichun heard this, his eyes turned to stare at the towel in Xiao Man's hand, and he immediately said happily: "It's true, it seems that the little sister is slowly getting better!" Little sister, I'm the eldest sister, do you know what I'm talking about? ”
Lin Xiaoman looked at the two little girls in front of him crying and laughing, happy appearance, and suddenly felt embarrassed in his heart, but he didn't dare to act rashly.
No matter what she says, she is also a psychologically mature adult, let her stand like this, let a child who is only six or seven years old wipe her face, she can't pass her own psychological level.
So as soon as his head was hot just now, he snatched the towel in Lixia's hand and washed his face by himself. Unexpectedly, such a move caused them to be excited.
However, they thought so, and it just helped her find an excuse to get back to normal. It's just that she secretly told herself that she couldn't act suddenly anymore to avoid their suspicion.
Lichun and Lixia were happy for a while, but they saw that Lin Xiaoman was still holding the towel with a blank face. Suddenly, the joy faded a little, but now that the little sister can react, there will always be a time when she can be good.
"Third sister, you take the younger sister to the eldest brother. Remember not to disturb the eldest brother, and remember to feed him and the younger sister medicine. Lichun thought that his mother's arm was injured, and there was definitely no way to make dinner! I'll have to help with the cooking, or everyone will be hungry at night.
"Hey, got it, big sister!" Lixia responded briskly. Because of Lin Xiaoman's unintentional move, the mood that was destroyed by the eldest aunt just now suddenly improved.
Lin Xiaoman was dragged to the inner room of the thatched house, only to feel that the smell of medicine in the room filled the entire room.
A small, thin figure lay on a narrow bed of doors, under which a few rocks were laid so that the doors were about a foot above the ground. A thin layer of straw was laid on the door panel, and a reed mat was laid on the straw.
Lixia let go of Lin Xiaoman's hand and let her sit at the end of the bed. Then he stepped forward and touched the eldest brother's forehead and exhaled softly. Fortunately, there was no fever. The eldest brother and the younger sister are twins, because three years ago, the news of the death of my father in the war hit my mother and gave birth prematurely. The eldest brother is frail and sickly, and he gets sick and has a fever at every turn. In order to treat the eldest brother, it can be said that the family borrowed money everywhere to spend their days! Now, as long as the eldest brother does not get sick, it means that the family no longer has to worry about where to borrow money.
Lin Xiaoman sat at the end of the bed, glanced down at the bed that was not the door panel, and then looked at the little boy on the bed, it was really skinny. But vaguely from the small face with a big slap, it can be seen that this is a delicate boy. It's just that he's too thin, and his frontal bone is a little protruding, and although his eyes are closed, he can feel that he has big eyes. The eyebrows seemed to be malnourished, and they looked yellow and scarce. The lips are a little whitish and flaky, which should be a sign of dehydration.
Yesterday, the moment he opened his eyes, Lin Xiaoman thought he was dreaming. Now that I think about it, the original owner of this body should be as weak as the little boy in this bed, and he can't stand being sick and hungry, and he is dying!
And she, this ghost from the twenty-first century, is inexplicably attached to this short-lived little girl.
Looking at the thatch overhead, thinking of the bowl of rice soup that Lin Lichun gave her in the morning, which could be as thin as a mirror, Lin Xiaoman felt that the prospect was gloomy. People don't want to cross the body of Princess Shenma, Miss Ah, at least let her have a full mouth!
How could I be so unlucky to wear it on a starving man. And will she be like the original owner, unable to endure freezing and hunger, and then die again?
Lin Xiaoman wailed in her heart, she didn't want to starve to death! Speaking of hunger, I drank such a bowl of clear rice soup in the morning, and I was already hungry, and my stomach seemed to sense her thoughts, and it gurgled with a gurgling sound!
Lin Xiaoman was about to secretly raise his hand to soothe his hungry stomach with his heart on his back, "Little sister, come, drink this medicine!" Drink it, and your body will be better! Lixia held a bowl of black things and handed it to Lin Xiaoman's mouth and coaxed.
She had already fed her eldest brother's medicine just now, and now after feeding her younger sister's medicine, she can go to the back mountain to drag back the firewood that her eldest sister picked up before. I don't know if the firewood that the eldest sister threw behind the mountain will be picked up.
Lin Xiaoman stared at the medicine bowl in front of him that was dark and black inside, and there was a strange smell in the bowl, as the strange smell was emitted in the air, it turned into a strong smell of Chinese medicine and burrowed into the nose again, making people want to feel sick to their stomachs when they smelled it. The already hungry stomach pantothenic acid, and when he smelled the smell of this traditional Chinese medicine again, Lin Xiaoman couldn't calm down anymore, pushed hard, and ran out, squatting at the door and spitting out sour water.
Lixia didn't expect that the little sister would actually push her, and the bowl containing the Chinese medicine fell to the ground, and the bowl fell to the ground, and it suddenly fell into two petals. Seeing that the only good bowl in the house without a notch was broken like this, Lixia was dumbfounded, and then burst into tears, after all, no matter how sensible she was, she was only a six-year-old child.
Lichun came back and told Chen about his little sister's situation, and Chen listened to Lichun's words, but there was no trace of joy in his heart. Before, the doctor said that Xiaoman would get better as long as he took medicine, but month after month, year after year, for more than three years, the child still looked like dementia, and she no longer had any hope. Lichun looked at his mother's expressionless face, and the joy in his heart gradually faded.
Because Chen's arm was injured, Lichun asked Gu Yu to wash the vegetables, but he sat down on Chen's side, grabbed the last handful of rice from the bottom of the rice bowl by himself, put it in the pot and began to cook wild vegetable porridge.
Chen saw that Lin Chun had scraped the rice jar around, and there was not a single grain of rice left before he straightened the rice jar, his pale face darkened, and he sighed in his heart. Xiao Man has been sick for so long, and he finally got better, and he still needs to eat more nutritious things, and Xiao Han still needs to take medicine, but now I don't know where to find tomorrow's rations. As soon as Gu Yu brought a handful of cleaned wild vegetables into the kitchen, Gu Yu looked at Chen worriedly, and then looked at the eldest sister, wanting to say that there were no wild vegetables in a nearby field, but swallowed the words into his stomach again.
At this time, I heard the sound of Lixia crying again in the room. Chen's face changed, Xiao Man survived easily yesterday, Lixia cried like this, it couldn't be Xiao Han something, right?
She was still worried about tomorrow's rations, but she was instantly forgotten, and she hurried to her room. Lichun and Gu Yu followed her closely, but Chen suddenly braked suddenly, and both of them almost hit Chen's back.
