Early in the morning of the second day, Zhao Yunlan had a fever, or Li Mingren saw that Zhao Yunlan's face was a little red when he got up, and he knew that it was a fever when he touched his forehead.

Li Mingren wanted to ask Mrs. Liao to ask for a doctor, but Zhao Yunlan woke up at this time and was busy pulling Li Mingren.

"There is medicine in the car, it was prepared in Renhetang before, and Dr. Kobayashi has already indicated it, you can go and take a look and take a pair of antipyretic ones to decoction."

Li Mingren nodded and instructed Ye Sheng to go with Chunxiang to get the medicine.

Li Mingren helped Zhao Yunlan back to sit on the edge of the bed: "Let's stay here for a few more days, and we will set off when you are well." ”

Zhao Yunlan didn't want to delay for too long, but her head was too uncomfortable, so she said: "Just stay for one more day, it's not good to delay on the road for too long." ”

Chunxiang hadn't finished decocting the medicine, so Mrs. Liao brought a bowl of ginger soup: "This lady, there is still some ginger left at home, I made you a bowl of ginger soup, you should drink it and sleep better." ”

Zhao Yunlan reluctantly pulled out a smile and said, "Thank you Granny Liao." ”

Li Mingren took the ginger soup, and the husband and wife looked at the bowl of bland ginger soup and glanced at each other.

Li Mingren went to the stove room in the morning and saw that there was a small half of ginger left in the bowl, which should be the last bit of ginger for Granny Liao.

Zhao Yunlan still drank it, after all, drinking more water when she was sick still had an effect.

After a while, Chunxiang brought the medicine over, and before that, He Hua took the bacon and rice brought by the family and washed it a few times and cut it down and stewed a porridge for Zhao Yunlan. Although it has been washed several times, the bacon is still a little salty, and there is no salt in the porridge.

Zhao Yunlan drank the porridge first, and then took the medicine. Seeing that there was still more than half of the bacon on the table, he asked He Hua to fill a bowl and bring it to Granny Liao to the stove. Because Zhao Yunlan and they wanted to stay for one more day, Granny Liao left the hall to the guests, and she took her grandchildren to the kitchen to eat.

"Either or not, or not. Girl, take it back! Mrs. Liao didn't dare to accept the bacon, but only shouted to He Hua to take it back.

He Hua smiled: "Granny Liao, this is what our wife ordered me to send over, you can accept it!" I didn't dare to take it back without Madame's order. ”

Mrs. Liao wanted to go to Zhao Yunlan, but was pulled by He Hua: "Our wife is resting after drinking medicine, so don't bother Granny Liao." ”

After speaking, he picked up Xiaoya's chopsticks and sandwiched a piece of meat in the bowl of the three grandchildren.

"Little girl, big dog, eat meat. This is our lady's secret bacon, and you will like it. ”

After that, he went back to the lobby.

Chunxiang was resting with Zhao Yunlan, and Li Mingren was outside listening to He Wenyu's report on the situation. In the morning, Li Mingren asked He Wen to inquire whether the group had left, but he didn't expect the group to leave as soon as they arrived.

He Wen went to ask the old village chief, and said that every time the gang came, they left at this time and never delayed. He Wen also asked the village chief for directions, went out from this village, went on the official road, and the horses would be able to reach Shangyang County in the evening.

After Li Mingren finished understanding, he went into the house and looked at Zhao Yunlan, Zhao Yunlan was asleep, and it seemed that she was sleeping quite comfortably, Li Mingren touched Zhao Yunlan's hands and feet again, it was hot, so he was relieved a lot, so he told Chunxiang to go outside to help He Hua pack up her things, and she didn't have to stay by Yunlan's side.

Li Mingren also went out, the lady was fine, and she had to review her homework. Ye Sheng helped Li Mingren move the table to a brighter position, put the paper and pencil on the table, Li Mingren first practiced calligraphy and calmed down, and then began to read and review. I was so fascinated that I didn't even know that the two children were coming next to me.

It just so happened that He Wen called Ye Sheng out to help, so no one next to Li Mingren reminded him that Mrs. Liao was picking vegetables in the backyard to prepare the guests' meals, so no one looked at the children. Although the guest brought his own food, and the guest had to do it himself, Mrs. Liao still had to do what she had to do, and she couldn't just accept so many copper plates from others.

It wasn't until the little girl's dark little hand touched the table that Li Mingren came back to his senses.

"Huh? Is there something wrong with the big dog and the little girl? ”

The little girl shook her head, and the big dog pursed her lips.

"You're a reader?" The big dog asked bluntly.

Li Mingren smiled: "Yes." ”

Big Dog: "Can you write my name, then?" ”

Li Mingren: "Then what is your name?" ”

"Big dog! Didn't you call me that just now? The big dog looked at the fool with a look on his face.

Li Mingren was a little helpless, didn't he think the name 'Big Dog' was a nickname? Although there are children named big dogs in Lijia Village, the children generally take a real name when they are older. Li Mingren looked at the big dog in front of him, he should be six years old.

Li Mingren shook his head with a smile, picked up a pen and wrote the word 'big dog'. He turned his head to look at Xiaoya, and then wrote the word 'Xiaoya'.

Li Mingren pointed to the big dog: "Na, this is 'big dog', and these two words are 'little girl'." ”

The big dog couldn't help but read it out with Li Mingren.

Li Mingren said: "Do you want to read and write?" ”

The big dog couldn't help but nodded: "Yes." ”

Li Mingren: "Then you can learn the names of you and your sister first, and you can take a small wooden stick and learn to write on the ground." I'll teach you the other words after I learn it. ”

"Really?" The big dog looked incredulous.

Li Mingren nodded, suddenly heard movement in the house, and thought that Zhao Yunlan woke up and got up to take a look.

"Lady, are there any better?"

Zhao Yunlan: "Well, I'm sweating, I want to wipe it." ”

Li Mingren shouted to Chunxiang to fetch hot water.

"Also, I'm a little hungry." Zhao Yunlan only ate a little porridge in the morning, and it was almost lunch time at this time, and she needed to replenish some energy when she was sick, so she was naturally hungry quickly.

"Eh, there is still warm porridge on the pot, I'll ask He Hua to bring it to you."

Zhao Yunlan nodded: "I want to eat some food." ”

Li Mingren: "Okay. ”

Liao Pozi was already cooking in the kitchen, picking some beans and cabbage in the yard to stew together, and the pickled fish saved at home before was also taken out and cooked. This is a meal specially made for guests, and Mrs. Liao's family eats two meals, because there are guests, so they are busy with lunch in the stove room.

"Miss He Hua, the fish will be fine for a while, you wait." Mrs. Liao looked at He Hua coming in and said.

He Hua said with a smile: "Granny Liao, I told you not to worry about our food. It's time for me to talk about me in a moment. ”

Mrs. Liao waved her hand: "Where do you come to stay there is a reason not to eat." And I'm not a good thing, so I'm going to have to let you eat some. ”

He Hua was helpless: "Then there is Granny Lao Liao, I'll scoop a bowl of cabbage first, my wife wants to eat some vegetables." ”

Inside the house, Zhao Yunlan drank porridge and ate beans and cabbage, while saying to Li Mingren: "Were you teaching two children to read just now?" ”

Li Mingren nodded: "It's the big dog who wants to read and write." ”

Zhao Yunlan: "You go out to eat first, I can do it." ”

After eating, Zhao Yunlan walked down to the ground, looking at the gloomy sky outside as if it was going to rain.

"What about Granny Liao?" Zhao Yunlan asked,

He Wen: "Back to Mrs., Mrs. Liao said that she was going to do the little work in the field before it rained, and she took the big dog and the little girl to go together." ”

"Hey, He Hua, look at what other dishes are in the car at night, take them out and cook them, and help Granny Liao cook them together."

He Huaying: "Yes." ”

Zhao Yunlan was a little sleepy again, so she went back to her room to continue to rest, thinking that this illness should be caused by hurrying. There are also seven days out of Lijia Village, although I will rest in a hurry, but it is still very hard to bump on the road every day.

It didn't rain all afternoon, and it was dark to see that Mrs. Liao came back with the big dog and the little girl.

Zhao Yunlan and the others had already eaten, and Mrs. Liao said anxiously: "Please forgive me, guests, I was busy grabbing time with God and forgot to come back to cook." ”

Zhao Yunlan: "It's okay, Granny Liao, go wash your hands and eat." The pot is hot for you, we have already eaten it. ”

Mrs. Liao was a little embarrassed, and her anxious tears were about to come out. He Hua got Zhao Yunlan's signal, and helped Liao Pozi to go to the stove room.

"Let's eat, it's not early. After eating, I went to bed and rested. He Hua lifted the lid and went out.

The three grandparents looked at the bacon and pork ribs in the pot, and their hearts were clutched tightly. The two children stared at the meat in the bowl, and neither dared to speak.

Mrs. Liao brought out the dishes and put them on the small table, and the three of them sat on a small bench to eat, although they had already eaten Zhao Yunlan's meat once, but Mrs. Liao and the two children were still reluctant to eat.
