"Ouch, my Herui." Zhou's mother staggered in, she almost tripped and fell several times because she was anxious, but fortunately, the second aunt was holding her tightly. Mother Zhou sat down on the kang and took Herui's hand and examined it carefully. He Rui poked out half of her head and looked at the surrounding environment timidly, as if this injury, the original momentum of her whole body that was not afraid of heaven and earth was less than half, and it was distressing to be timid at this time.

"How do you do this?" Mother Zhou turned her head and glared at Jiafu angrily, and scolded, "You too!" My own daughter can also get such a heavy hand! See for yourself, what is the fight? ”

Jiafu hung his head, didn't dare to say a word, didn't even dare to raise his eyes.

"Alas, it's just such a small object, if you want it, you tell grandma, no matter how much money grandma will ask your second uncle to give it to you, what are you afraid of, why do you want to get it yourself?" Mother Zhou sighed and said to the second aunt beside her, "You too, go back and talk to Lishang, don't always take these little things so seriously, is it the money or the family that is important?" Isn't he sure he weighs it himself? ”

"Well, I'll tell him when I get back." The second aunt nodded hurriedly, "Don't be too angry." ”

"Can I not be angry? Alas. Zhou's mother said, pointing to a basket brought down by her side, "Grandma brought you a lot of delicious food, if you want to eat, just tell grandma, you must raise your hands, you know?" ”

He Rui nodded, her eyes red.

Mother Zhou twisted her head to Heyi again, and suddenly laughed, "And this living treasure of mine, you come here." She beckoned to Heyi, who hurriedly walked over, "Look, the clothes haven't been changed yet, and the body is covered with soil. Don't be so noisy in the future, it's like the widow Liu at the head of the village, how ugly. ”

"Hmm." He nodded obediently. Zhou's mother said again: "If you don't have money, you can ask grandma, grandma hasn't saved anything over the years, but she still has money, you know?" Don't mess with your second uncle anymore, you don't respect your elders when you look at it. ”

"Got it." Heyi's tone weakened, she secretly glanced at the family portrait, saw that her father's face had changed again, stared at her directly, and immediately lowered her head timidly.

"What money?" Jiafu frowned and asked, "What are you messing with your second uncle?" ”

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Cui Ying hurriedly said, "Mom, since you have come down, you will eat here, and Hedi will go to cook immediately." ”

"Okay." Mother Zhou said with a smile, "Hetu has also grown up, you two are waiting to enjoy the blessings of your children." ”

"How can I be?" Cuiying smiled helplessly, "It's all girls, and they can't come back once a year after getting married, what blessings can we enjoy." ”

"This is nonsense, girls are treasures. Look at the sons I gave birth to, it's not as good as my daughter-in-law who loves me. Mother Zhou glanced at the second aunt with pity and said, "Alas, the old saying can be said in reverse, I didn't know until this age." ”

"Mom, look at what you said." The second aunt smiled, "Isn't the eldest brother quite filial to you?" Although the third brother is far away, he often sends money back, and the nutritional products and clothes he bought for you are still piled up in the cabinet. Although Li Shang is a little worse than the eldest brother and the third brother, he still has you in his heart, so you, don't think about it, you are the one who should enjoy the happiness of your children. ”

Mother Zhou was coaxed by these words and smiled, she patted the back of her second aunt's hand, and said to Jiafu and Cuiying: "Look at it, this mouth is really sweeter than honey, what a blessing you say this is for businessmen, to marry such a good daughter-in-law." ”

Everyone in the room laughed, only Cuiying's gaze showed a faint hint of loss, and she smiled reluctantly, and moved her gaze back to Herui.

The second aunt sat with everyone for a while and then went back, she had to cook for her husband and children, so she couldn't stay outside for too long. Zhou's mother finished dinner and was sent back by Cuiying. Jiafu made a straight face, called Heyi into the back room, and asked sternly, "What are you messing with your second uncle again?" ”

He Yi still had palpitations about the previous beating, Jiafu's face was flat, and as soon as her voice was low, her heart skipped several beats. Although she was quite proud of this matter, she understood what kind of person her father was, and he would rather lose the money than lose face and get it back. So she lowered her head and tried to survive the interrogation without a word.

"You won't say it yet, will you?" Jiafu's brows furrowed more and more, "You don't say it, okay-" He stood up, He Yi thought he was going to hit her, and his body shrank in fright, just at this time He Tu came in, and hurriedly said, "Dad, my mother called you." ”

"What are you doing?" Jiafu looked at her unhappily.

"Uh......" He Tu hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's that she has something to tell you, it's about the second uncle." ”

"What can she tell me?" Jiafu sat down again, and Heyi breathed a sigh of relief and secretly glanced at Heyi.

"Mom also said, call Heyi over." He Yi looked at He Yi and winked at her quickly. He Yi felt a burst of joy in his heart, feeling that he could finally be freed. She glanced at her father, and saw that his gaze was not on her, but on what seemed to be thinking about something, and he looked ahead intently.

"Dad, then I'll go out first." He Yi said cautiously, and seeing that his father didn't say anything, he stood up lightly and slipped out.

"Mom, I'm scared to death." Standing in the courtyard when he went out, He Yi patted his chest and exhaled deeply.

He Tu squinted at He Yi and said with a smile: "You didn't have such a small courage when you went to ask for money, why did Dad get angry and you coaxed you?" ”

"That's different." He Yi pouted and said, "Why do I always think that I have done something bad, sister, do you think what I did is a bad thing?" ”

"I don't know." He shrugged his shoulders and glanced towards the courtyard door, where Emerald Shadow pushed open the half-hidden door and walked in.

"It's better for mom to say, you'd better not dangle in front of dad." He said and turned and walked towards the backyard, where she was going to feed the sheep. Since she came back, the work of the family has fallen on her shoulders again, Herui is lazy and doesn't know how to do it, and Heyi doesn't know how to do it, so she has to do everything by herself.

When she came back from feeding the grass, she saw that her father's face had softened a lot, presumably because her mother had told her father about asking for money for the game. She saw that her father was not angry, thinking that he felt that it was harmless to do this, not to mention that he knew too much about this brother's temperament, and felt that he couldn't follow him too much, but he couldn't get up and down this face, so he had to put on a face so that he could give himself a step down.

After dinner in the evening, Jiafu called Heyi to him and educated her in a deep language. I wanted to have a good talk with Herui, but she seemed to be frightened, and as soon as she saw her walk in, she hurriedly covered her head with a quilt, and Cuiying kept complaining that he had scared the child, so the conversation couldn't go on. He walked out of the house, thinking that it would not be too late to talk about it when Herui's injury was healed, and he would try to be nice to her during this time.

As the night grew darker, and the clock on the table reached 11 o'clock, Cuiying finally agreed to go back to bed. She got down from the kang and told Hetu: "Be careful not to press your sister's hand when you sleep at night, you let her sleep on the outside, and you take care of it." ”

"Got it, Mom, go back to sleep quickly." He urged Cui Ying to turn around and leave. After closing the door, she took off her shoes and went to sleep on the kang. He Rui slept all afternoon, and at this time she had a pair of eyes wide open, and she didn't feel sleepy at all. Watching Hetu climb onto the kang, she couldn't help but say, "You must be very happy when I get beaten, right?" ”

Before He Tu could speak, He Yi said: "Third sister, when you passed out, the second sister kept holding you and crying. ”

He Tu was a little embarrassed, she smiled and said, "What are you talking about, hurry up and go to bed." He Yi stuck out his tongue and lay down beside Hedi. He Tu tidied up the quilt and said to He Rui: "You should also go to sleep quickly, the doctor said that your wound should be well maintained, and you can't stay up late, otherwise it will not be conducive to recovery." ”

"Are you really holding me and crying?" Herui still asked unwillingly.

He Di's movements paused, she turned her head to look at He Rui, hesitated for a few seconds, and then said, "No, you listen to He Yi's nonsense." ”

"Hmph." Herui sneered, "I knew that you must be very happy behind your back." ”

He Tu was a little unhappy when she heard this, she frowned, and said in a low voice, "Why do you always think of others like this? Okay, since you say that, you're happy behind my back, okay? ”

He Rui snorted coldly and turned his back to Hedi. He Tu looked at her back helplessly, shook his head, turned off the light and lay down. After a day of tossing, she felt unusually tired and quickly fell asleep. Hazy, she saw Xiuhan's face dangling in front of her, laughing and crying for a while, suddenly, that face turned into Zhu Hai's appearance again, those beautiful eyes smiled slightly, and a pair of deep dimples seemed to beckon to her. She staggered to him, but he seemed so close to her, but he was actually so far away that he couldn't walk in front of him. Growing more and more anxious, she quickened her pace, running forward with almost all her strength. I don't know when, the originally flat road became bumpy, and strange-shaped big stones grew out from under the ground, blocking her tightly, so that she could hardly see where Zhu Hai was. Suddenly, she stumbled under her feet and threw herself forward. She saw a sharp stone in front of her, and came towards her door. Horrified, she screamed and struggled, reaching for something to stop her fall. Suddenly, everything in front of her was gone, and she didn't fall down, she opened her eyes and saw the familiar ceiling, the familiar windows, and the shadows of the trees swaying outside. When she woke up, she found herself covered in sweat and her forehead was hot and damp.

He Di was stunned for a few seconds before he reacted. She breathed a sigh of relief, but luckily it was just a dream. She didn't want to think about what she had just dreamed about, so she turned her head to see how Herui's hands were, but she saw that Herui's face was flushed, the beads of sweat on her forehead glistened in the moonlight shining through the window, and her hair was wet on her forehead and cheeks. He Tu rolled over and pressed the back of his hand to Herui's forehead, and the hot temperature suddenly spread through the thin skin to her palm. "I have a fever." He shouted and hurriedly turned on the light. She hesitated for a moment whether to tell her parents, but after thinking about it, forget it, don't disturb them so late. She walked to the kitchen with her shoes on, scooped a basin of cold water from the water tank, soaked the towel, wrung it out and placed it on Helry's forehead, trying to lower the temperature on Helry's body. Herui writhed uneasily, her lips twitching, not knowing what she was muttering.

He Yi was woken up by Heyi's movements, she rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked at her sister in confusion, and asked, "Sister, what are you doing?" ”

"Nothing." He didn't look at her, just busy soaking the towel, "You hurry up and sleep." ”

He Yi looked at it carefully with wide eyes, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with the third sister?" ”

"It's okay, you can go to sleep." He Tu said, placing the towel that had become cold again on Herui's forehead, looking at her worriedly, hesitating whether to tell her parents or not.

"The third sister has a fever?" He Yi crawled up to He Rui and touched her face with his hand, "I told my parents to go." ”

"Hey." He Tu stretched out his hand to stop her, "It's not dawn yet, I'll tell my parents when it's bright." ”

"Why?"

"I'll use a towel to cool her down first and see if it works. Otherwise, I will wake up my parents in vain. ”

He Yi closed his mouth and stopped talking. She looked at Herui worriedly, and prayed in her heart that the third sister would get better soon, so that the family would not have to worry.

But until dawn, the fever of Herui still did not come down. Hetu then asked Heyi to call his parents. When Cuiying heard that Herui had a fever, she suddenly became anxious, and asked Jiafu to ask the doctor one after another. Jiafu was very calm, and went out after washing and getting dressed. Herui burned more and more, and began to talk nonsense. The water in the basin has been changed two or three times, but the body temperature has not come down.

The doctor soon arrived, carrying a medical kit in his hand, and his face still had the same anxious and sad expression. He took out a thermometer and asked him to put it under Herui's armpit, waiting a few minutes before taking it out. He removed the gauze on Herui's hand, carefully examined the wound on his hand, and then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The wound has no signs of inflammation, I will change the medicine for her." ”

Jiafu looked at everything in front of him silently, and felt very uncomfortable. He couldn't figure out how he could have done so hard in the first place. The doctor squinted at the thermometer in the light and said, "39°." ”

"Seriously, no?" Emerald Shadow asked hurriedly. She put her hand on her daughter's head and touched it, feeling more and more anxious.

"Don't get in the way, I'll prescribe some fever reducers for you later. If you don't see your body temperature drop at night, you can only hang up the potion. ”

"Okay, thank you, doctor." Cuiying put Herui's re-bandaged hand in the palm of her hand and looked at her distressedly. After taking the medicine, she fell into a deep sleep, and she didn't talk nonsense, but she was breathing heavily, and her forehead was still sweating.
