Bai Xia sat on the ground, took the kitchen knife in his hand again, ignored the dirt on his body, and calmly looked at the pig in front of him.

stroked the pig's head that was dented by her with her hand, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid"

I don't know if I'm comforting the pig or herself.

She dragged the pig out of the pen, set up a shelf with a bench, dragged it up with great difficulty, and went to find a rope to tie it so that it would not struggle.

Li Xiuyuan held the wooden basin and looked at Bai Xia in horror.

"Put it here"

Bai Xia pointed to the position of the pig's neck.

He put the basin away tremblingly, and saw Bai Xia's hand fall with a knife, and all the blood fell into the basin placed below.

"Go and help me light the fire"

Bai Xia scooped out all the river water stored at home and poured it into the pot, asked Li Xiuyuan to light the fire, and after the water was boiled, he began to take care of the pigs.

The two children were busy from the afternoon to the middle of the moon in the evening, and the Lin family, who went to their parents' house, never came back.

After Li Xiuyuan was busy, he was so tired that he fell asleep on the ground, Bai Xia carried him into the room, and handled all the pork by himself, cutting what should be cut, roasting what should be roasted, the oil lamp burned out little by little, and the sky slowly brightened.

And Lin, still hasn't come back.

Bai Xia rubbed his red eyes, first cut a few pieces of meat and boiled a pot of broth, drank a big bowl by himself, ate more than half of the meat, and sat quietly at the door.

Her hunch came true.

Lin did not return.

I went to my mother's house yesterday afternoon, and no one came back until this morning.

She felt like crying.

The Lin family loves Li Xiuyuan very much, she can't leave Li Xiuyuan and run away, she is watching the Lin family walk in the direction of Linjia Village.

By midnight, at about ten o'clock, Lin didn't come back, and Li Xiuyuan didn't get up.

Bai Xia entered the house and saw that Li Xiuyuan had a high fever.

He was scared.

She began to go out non-stop to fetch water again, and she had to fetch half a bucket of water every day.

After she came back, she twisted the handkerchief, wiped Li Xiuyuan's body to dissipate heat, and rummaged through the dried wild vegetables she picked back, she remembered that there were a few wild vegetables that cleared the heat, and after finding it, she took it to boil water, and after letting it cool down, she hugged Li Xiuyuan and poured it in little by little.

"No doctors, no medicine"

"Brother Yuan, you have to be a little more aggressive"

"Jade Emperor, Guanyin Bodhisattva, please bless him"

"Let him get better"

In the afternoon, the heat on Li Xiuyuan's body did not disappear at all, but the temperature was higher, and Bai Xia finally couldn't help crying.

This damn ancient.

She went back to the room and took an embroidery needle, lit it for disinfection, recalled the Chinese medicine antipyretic method she had seen, found the acupuncture points, pushed the skin up according to the memory, and then quickly pricked four or five needles, squeezed out a few drops of blood, and then sat on the ground dejectedly.

"Whether you can survive or not depends on you, Brother Yuan"

"Your mother is gone"

"She didn't come back"

"I asked someone to inquire, and the Lin family said that they hadn't seen your mother."

"She's gone, gone"

"Maybe someone kidnapped someone, maybe he died somewhere"

"You have to get better, get up and study, get famous, become a big official, and then go to her"

"Maybe she's still waiting for someone to save her."

"If you die, she's not saved"

"You're a motherless child"

Bai Xia sat on the ground, muttering word by word.

Li Xiuyuan on the bed burned his cheeks red, and kept shouting his mother, but Bai Xia was not his mother, and he couldn't find his mother.

She wanted to go to Linjia Village to ask in person, but she didn't dare.

She was worried that if she was gone, Li Xiuyuan would die.

There was no one guarding him before he died.

He was still a child.

Bai Xia guarded him like this, and took a handkerchief for him to wipe his body, over and over again.

There is no Langzhong in the village, only the town has a doctor, and the doctor in the town cannot be hired without money.

So now I can only look at my fate, if Li Xiuyuan's fate is hard, he will be able to survive, otherwise he will die.

Bai Xia's expression gradually changed from worry to indifference, and she wiped his body over and over again, like wiping an object.

What's the matter with her?

She wanted to cry and laugh.

She is not really Bai Sanya, the Lin family saved Bai Sanya, and it is not her Bai Xia, she is not from the Li family, what does Li Xiuyuan's life and death have to do with her?

She was thinking cranky.

Since she crossed over, she has been hungry, and now she still owes more than 300 catties of food to the government, but this food is owed by the Li family, not by her Bai Xia, she is already planning to escape, this oil bottle is sick like this, and when he is better, he can't hand over the food, and everyone will die.

So, she should have run on her own.

Bai Xia grimaced, and put the hot handkerchief back into the water and twisted it.

Just thinking about it, she didn't notice that Li Xiuyuan on the bed opened her eyes in a daze and looked at her attentively.

But when she turned around, those eyes closed again.

"Come on, let's run away," she chuckled, caressing his face.

The night was slowly deepening, and Bai Xia had already fallen asleep, she lay on the bed, sleeping very unsteadily, she didn't know that the high fever on Li Xiuyuan's body gradually subsided, and opened her eyes in the middle of the night, sat up, and looked at her blankly.

While watching, crying.

The eyes are deep and sad.

That's not the look a child should have.

"Sanya"

The corners of his mouth muttered, and tears flowed down his face.

"Sanya, Sanya"

There were bursts of shouts in Bai Xia's ears, and it seemed that something was pushing her hard.

She woke up and raised her head suddenly, it was still dark in front of her, she subconsciously reached out to touch Li Xiuyuan's forehead, the warm forehead was a little hotter than hers, but compared to the daytime, it had already dropped.

She was stunned, and then there was a huge surprise.

The fever subsided.

He was saved.

Bai Xia wiped her face, looked at the sky outside, and at the end of the day, that is, at five o'clock, she got up and came to the kitchen, cooked a pot of wild vegetable broth, and after cooking, she went to the room and called Li Xiuyuan.

"Brother Yuan, it's time to get up"

"Brother Yuan"

Bai Xia shouted softly, Li Xiuyuan on the bed frowned, and slowly opened his eyes, confused in his eyes.

"Brother Yuan, what is this?"

A unique aroma of broth penetrated Li Xiuyuan's nose, and he saw that his eyes lit up, and he said in a dumb voice: "Meat, there is meat, Sanya, I want to eat meat"

After being sick, Li Xiuyuan's originally round face had lost a lot of weight, and at this moment, he was looking at Bai Xia with a blank eye, and he was reluctant to give him food.

"Okay, I'll feed you"

She took a spoon and scooped the soup and slowly fed it to Li Xiuyuan, who was like a hamster, drinking his cheeks and puffing out.

When he had finished the soup, he fed him the meat again.

After eating, Li Xiuyuan began to feel sleepy, Bai Xia touched his head and said to him: "You sleep at home obediently, I have something to go out for a while."

Li Xiuyuan squinted his eyes and nodded, and soon fell asleep.
