Chapter 7: Gan's Illness
After the meal, Gu Jiujiu helped Yan wash the dishes together.
Originally, Gu Jiujiu planned to help the Yan family boil the hot water for everyone's bath at night. However, Yan insisted on not letting Gu Jiujiu do it.
There was no way, Gu Jiujiu had to take Sister Yuan and Brother Yan out together.
After sitting with Sister Yuan in the courtyard for a while, Yan boiled the hot water.
Brother Yan and Sister Yuan finished washing, and Gu Jiujiu and Yan washed it.
After taking a shower, everyone was tired, so they went back to their rooms to rest.
There are a total of three thatched houses, Brother Yan sleeps in one room alone, Yan and Sister Yuan sleep in one room, and Gu Jiujiu sleeps in one room.
Lying on the bed, although it was already very dark, Gu Jiujiu couldn't sleep at all.
This family is poorer than she imagined, and it is obvious that they have eaten the last meal but not the next. Moreover, this home is too dilapidated to live in at all.
No, she must earn the money as soon as possible. Not to mention the rest, at least the problem of food and clothing for this family must be solved first.
After secretly making up his mind, Gu Jiujiu closed his eyes and began to sleep.
The night passed!
This night, Gu Jiujiu slept very uncomfortably. Not to mention that the smell of mold in the house was unpleasant, and the cold wind that constantly blew in from all sides of the house was enough for her.
Finally, it was dawn, and Gu Jiujiu only felt that the whole person was very tired.
Lazily lying on the bed, thinking that it would be like this every day in the future, Gu Jiujiu's eyes hurt.
She couldn't help but think of her comfortable and warm large room in modern times. If only I could go back to sleep now.
"Sister, sister, ······." Suddenly, Gu Jiujiu heard Sister Yuan'er's voice coming from outside the door, and, it seems, her voice was still a little anxious.
Could it be that something is happening?
Just when Gu Jiujiu was strange, the door of the room was pushed open by Sister Yuan. Sister Yuan ran to Gu Jiujiu's bed in a panic, with a crying voice, "Sister, go and see what's wrong with your mother?" I just touched my mother's forehead, it's so hot, it's so hot! ”
After listening to Sister Yuan'er's words, needless to say, Gu Jiujiu also knew that it must be Yan's illness.
At that moment, Gu Jiujiu didn't dare to delay any longer, lifted the quilt and got up and followed Sister Yuan to Yan's room.
As soon as I entered, I saw Brother Yan lying next to Yan's side, looking at Yan with his eyes tight. Gu Jiujiu walked to Yan's bedside, wiped Yan's forehead with his hand, and then checked Yan's pulse again.
"Sister, is my mother sick?" Brother Yan looked at Gu Jiujiu, his little face full of worry.
"What should I do?" As soon as she heard Brother Yan'er's words, Sister Yuan'er's already pitiful little face instantly became more and more pitiful.
"It's okay, don't worry!" Gu Jiujiu looked at his younger brothers and sisters, and comforted him softly: "Don't worry! With my sister here, my mother will be fine! After taking a general look just now, she knew that Yan's was too tired, and the cold wind blew last night. This disease is not a serious illness, as long as you take medicine and rest, you will be fine.
"Really?" Sister Yuan listened to Gu Jiujiu's words, and couldn't help but look at her with her little head and asked.
"Really!" Gu Jiujiu nodded, "As long as my mother takes the medicine, it will be fine tomorrow." ”
"Great!" Sister Yuan knew that her mother would get better soon, so she immediately clapped her little hands happily.
Brother Yan on the side listened to his sister's words, and his little face couldn't help but darken, his sister didn't know, but he knew quite well that after his mother bought rice yesterday, there was no money left at home.
If they don't have money, what do they use to get medicine for their mothers?
