The couple talked and laughed, and the ox cart walked for another hour and came to Wu Hui's mother's house, a small village called Humei.

The population of Humei Village is more than 600 people, ordinary people have no surplus grain at home, harvest two crops of rice a year, and the yield per mu is about 200 catties.

"Ah, I'm home, I'm back."

In front of the adobe courtyard that he was familiar with, Wu Hui got off the ox cart with the careful support of Wang Xiao.

She looked at the small farm yard where she had lived for more than 10 years with mixed feelings.

On the wall of the courtyard are a few pots of sunflowers raised in moon-broken clay pots, and at this time they are blooming with sparse pink flowers, which she planted when she was in her mother's house.

Moss crawled all over the corners, making the Wu family's house a little old and decadent.

Just when Wu Hui was nostalgic, a gong-like voice suddenly came out of the courtyard, breaking the peace of this moment.

"You, a second-rate son who eats all day long and is idle, don't you know how to do more work at home?

Pretending to be sick all day long! If you pretend to be sick again, the firewood at home is about to burn out.

Why don't you hurry up the mountain and chop wood! If you don't come back with a load of firewood today, don't think about eating! ”

"Mother, I'm not pretending to be sick, I really have a headache, uncomfortable, and chills all over my body."

The voice of a familiar man in the room responded, making Wu Hui's heart tug at once.

She left Wang Xiao and hurriedly pushed the door into the courtyard.

The scene in front of her was exactly what Wu Hui was worried about:

I saw that Zhou was pointing at Wu Jing who was sitting on the small bench and scolded angrily, Wu Jing's face was red, his face was confused, he was wilted, and he was sick at first glance. “

Wu Hui didn't have time to say hello to Zhou, so she rushed up and squatted down, helped Wu Jing and asked:

"Wu Jing, what's wrong with you?"

Wu Hui found that Wu Jing's body was hot and hot, and when he touched his forehead, he had a fever.

had a high fever, but it would kill someone, Wu Hui was frightened.

Wu Jing didn't expect his sister to appear here, he looked at her in a daze and muttered:

"Sister, I'm dreaming, right? Or is it burnt and confused? Are you really my sister? Didn't my sister marry into Taoyuan Village? How can it be at home? ”

Wu Hui's tears flowed down and said:

"Wu Jing, I'm back to see you. You're not dreaming, it's really me. ”

"Sister, is it really sister? That's great. ”

When Wu Jing saw his sister, the willpower that he had supported suddenly unloaded, his body became weak, and he collapsed in Wu Hui's arms, and he actually fainted.

Wu Hui was frightened and hurriedly shouted:

"Xianggong, come on, my brother is faint."

Wang Xiao happened to be tying up the ox cart outside at this time, and when he heard Wu Hui shouting, he hurriedly walked into the house.

Seeing Wu Jing paralyzed in Wu Hui's arms, he stepped forward to pick him up, and then asked Wu Hui:

"Which room does Brother Jing live in?"

Zhou might as well see Wang Xiao and Wu Hui suddenly appear, just now she was scolding Wu Jing, must have been heard by these two, can't help but be a little embarrassed, hearing Wang Xiao ask, he reluctantly pointed to a small house on the side of the wing, said:

"Oh, Wu Jingping just slept there."

Wang Xiao carried Wu Jing into the house.

Wu Hui walked in front, opened the hut, and saw that his heart was cold, isn't this the firewood room where firewood is placed?

There are no beds in the house, no tables and chairs, but a layer of grass is spread on the ground, and a bamboo pillow is placed on the grass......

I didn't see the quilt, but there was a straw curtain on the side, which was used to keep out the cold.

Seeing this tragic situation, Wu Hui cried even more.

Wang Xiao put Wu Jing on the ground, Wang Xiao touched his head and said:

"I have a high fever, I have to go to the doctor quickly."

Zhou followed in, and when he heard that he was going to invite a doctor, he pursed his lips and said:

"What doctor, please? Just pull out some herbs and decoction water to drink.

It's precious to ask for a doctor, please don't have dozens of dollars at a time.

Those doctors are all fools, what's the big deal about fever? Just lie down and get some sleep. ”

Wu Hui was so angry that her whole body trembled, this was her stepmother, and she didn't take the lives of their sisters and brothers seriously.

Wu Hui wanted to scold, but she was afraid that the Zhou family would treat her brother worse afterwards, so she could only endure it:

"Xianggong, you go to the bridgehead in the east of the village, there is a Wu clinic, invite that doctor to come and see."

"Huh, what? After getting married, they all became delicate? Do you have a fever and need to ask a doctor? In the past, when you were at home, you didn't just cook some herbal soup and drink it. ”

Zhou's yin and yang are weird and authentic.

"Mother, he burned and fainted." Wu Hui was so angry that she vomited blood.

"Hmph, if you go to the doctor, you will have to pay for the money yourself!"

Zhou threw out this sentence.

"Okay. We pay it ourselves. ”

Wang Xiao nodded and hurried to the east of the village.

Seeing them like this, Zhou snorted, turned around and left the hut.

Not long after, Wang Xiao and Dr. Wu, who was carrying a medicine box, came to see a doctor.

Dr. Wu checked Wu Jing's tongue, listened to his breathing, felt his pulse, and said:

"Fortunately, I didn't burn to the lungs, I prescribe a few pairs of medicines here, and you and I go directly to the clinic to get the medicine, the first payment is to reduce fever, the second payment is to clear the heat and remove the fire, drink it once a day in the morning and evening, and you will be fine after eating."

When Wu Hui heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly thanked her.

Dr. Wu got up and wanted to take Wang Xiao to the clinic to get the medicine.

When Zhou saw Dr. Wu arrive at home, he leaned on the door frame and said urgently:

"Doctor Wu, you have to see clearly, the person who invited you today is Wu Hui, and you can ask them for the consultation fee."

Doctor Wu glanced at Wang Xiao, Wang Xiao nodded and said:

"Yes, I will pay for the consultation and medicine."

Zhou snorted and said no more.

This kind of family is sophisticated, Dr. Wu has been practicing medicine for decades, and he has seen too much, anyway, it is other people's housework, and it is inconvenient for him to express his opinion, as long as he has a consultation fee.

Dr. Wu took Wang Xiao to his clinic, wrote the prescription, and asked the medicine boy to prepare the medicine, full of 5 large bags of Chinese medicine.

Wang Xiao paid 600 wen for medicine and consultation, and hurriedly went back with the medicine.

As a result, when I left the clinic, I saw someone selling hens on the street.

Wang Xiao remembered what Liu Wan often said: If you have a cold, drinking chicken soup will help you heal quickly, because chicken soup contains a nutrient called acid.

Wang Xiao doesn't remember what it was, but what his mother said must be right, because his grandfather's house is a family of Xinglin, and his mother must have learned the essence.

Wang Xiao stopped, spent 200 yuan on the other party, bought a little hen, and then hurried home.

Wang Xiaocai walked outside the door of the Wu family, and heard the Zhou family in the courtyard roaring again.

"He went to the mountains to chop wood on a rainy day, and he caught a cold after the rain, and I didn't even say that he would go home when he was sick, and you even accused me of not taking good care of him?

Hasn't this family been struggling to support me? It's nice to have a bowl of rice to eat, what else do you want?

If not, take this rabbit with you! You feel distressed as much as you love. ”

Zhou is already starting to shirk responsibility.
