Chapter 4: Fever
Thinking of this, Luo Xue didn't care that it was getting late, so she hurriedly ran to Aunt Chen's yard when she went out, praying in her heart that nothing would happen, hoping that she was too careful.
After bypassing the thatched huts, I finally arrived at Aunt Chen's yard, which was also an ordinary fenced courtyard, a few thatched farmhouses, and a few chickens in the yard, and there was a clucking cry without a sound at this time.
Luo Xue didn't care about whether she was polite or not, and after shouting loudly, Aunt Chen rushed into the yard, scaring a few old hens and flying for a while. Entered the courtyard and continued to shout in front of the house
"Aunt Chen, are you there?"
The room was silent. There was no sound. But it's this hour, where can I be if I'm not at home, at this time Luo Xue was also a little anxious, so she pushed open the door and walked in.
There was no light in the house, and she couldn't see her fingers, Luo Xue could only grope her way to the inner room where Aunt Chen was sleeping according to her memory, and then she heard a woman's faint moan, Luo Xue hurriedly fumbled for a match on the table and lit the oil lamp, and the room was bright.
I saw Aunt Chen lying on the bed, her eyes closed, her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and there was only a faint moan occasionally.
Luo Xue was startled, and hurried over to wake her up, but found that she was very hot, this is, fever?
Luo Xue didn't understand medical science, but saw that the people who burned badly in the past first wanted to use cold water to cool down, so she hurriedly went to the well outside to get a basin of water, found a clean handkerchief, soaked it in water and wrung it out, wiped the sweat on Aunt Chen's face, and wiped her back and forth.
The cold water in this weather is very cold, and after wiping it a few times, the body temperature on her forehead seems to have dropped a little, so Luo Xue hurriedly went out of the yard to the farm to find someone to heal.
As soon as I arrived at the farm compound, I ran in a hurry and bumped into someone. "What are you doing with the frizzy Luo girl, hurry up to reincarnate!" a rough man's voice came.
Luo Xue looked up and saw that it was Uncle Liu, and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Uncle Liu, I'm too anxious, Uncle Liu, Aunt Chen, she has a fever, it's hot, and everyone is about to burn out, Uncle Liu, you can help, find someone who can heal and take a look, please!"
As she spoke, she was about to kneel, after all, Aunt Chen was the only person who had given her warmth since she came to this world, she really didn't want Aunt Chen to have anything to do, and she still wanted to honor her when she grew up in the future!
"Aunt Chen?" Uncle Liu slapped his head with a somewhat sluggish reaction, "Oh, Aunt Chen." ”
Uncle Liu looked vulgar, but his heart was not bad, and when he saw that Luo Xue was about to kneel, he hurriedly helped her up, "Luo girl, don't worry, I'll call you Li Langzhong in the village, you go and take care of Aunt Chen first." ”
After saying that, he turned around and strode to the west along the path in the field, Luo Xue saw that he was saved, and hurriedly ran to Aunt Chen's house.
When I arrived at Aunt Chen's bedside, I saw that her forehead was already wet with sweat, and her whole body was hot.
Luo Xue thought about it for a while, and quickly picked up the handkerchief and continued to wipe her. After a while, there was a sound of footsteps in the courtyard, and Luo Xue knew that it must be Li Langzhong.
Hurriedly went to open the door, only to see that Uncle Liu was followed by a short old man, who was not good-looking, and followed him into the door tremblingly.
Li Langzhong's family also studied medicine in his early years, but later his family was sold into slavery for some reason, and he worked for Luofu for most of his life.
Later, when I got older, I couldn't do my work anymore, so my medical skills were still a little useful, so I started working on the farm.
Usually, if everyone has a headache and brain fever, they all look for him. Luo Xue stepped forward to greet Li Langzhong to express her gratitude, and then hurriedly led Li Langzhong into Aunt Chen's house. Only then did he stand aside and wait for Li Langzhong's order.
Li Langzhong took the pulse, and gave Uncle Liu some instructions, before writing a prescription and handing it to Uncle Liu, turning his head and instructing Luo Xue to continue to wipe her body to lower her temperature, and then went out with his medicine box.
Uncle Liu also followed him back to grab the medicine, and Luo Xue kept wiping Aunt Chen's body repeatedly, until Uncle Liu came back with the medicine bag, and then thanked Uncle Liu and sent him out.
After all, this man and woman are in a big trouble, and it is not suitable for Uncle Liu to stay in Aunt Chen's house for too long.
I heard that Aunt Chen's former husband went out to chop firewood and accidentally fell down the mountain, and unfortunately hit his head on a stone, so he went on the spot.
At that time, Aunt Chen was young and had no children, and her husband died early, and she has been alone since then, so she has no one to take care of her. If Luo Xue hadn't found out in time today, if she burned at home like this, she would have died.
Luo Xue boiled the medicine according to the steps according to the method conveyed by Uncle Liu, and brought it to Aunt Chen, it was already late at night, Aunt Chen's body was finally not so hot, Luo Xue twisted the quilt for Aunt Chen, and fell asleep tired by the bed.
This sleep was very sweet, and when I woke up the next day, it was already bright.
looked at Aunt Chen on the bed, her face was serene, but a little pale, Luo Xue went to boil the medicine again according to Lang Zhong's instructions.
When she entered the house with the medicine, Aunt Chen had already woken up, and she saw Luo Xue coming in with the medicine bowl, her throat moved, and she seemed to want to say something.
Luo Xue hurriedly put the medicine on the table, poured a glass of water for Aunt Chen, drank the water, and only after opening and closing her lips did she spit out a sound, and her voice was very weak
"Girl, thank you so much, last night, I thought I wouldn't be able to survive"
"Whatever the aunt said, this is what Luo Xue should do. Auntie, don't think about anything now, just drink the medicine obediently and get better as soon as possible. Luo Xue pursed her mouth and brought the medicine to her again.
Aunt Chen took the medicine bowl, and when she saw Luo Xue looking like a little adult, she felt a little funny in her heart, and she felt a little warmer.
"Yes, yes, auntie, I drink medicine obediently. Now I'm fine, girl, hurry up to the farm, lest it be too late for Steward Wu to trouble you again."
Although Luo Xue didn't want to go to the farm at this time, she also knew that what Aunt Chen said was right, if she gave Aunt Wu a chance, she would definitely not spare herself, so she had to watch Aunt Chen drink the medicine, and then she went back to the farm step by step.
Although Luo Xue was worried, she couldn't do anything because she was small. I can only take care of some of them as much as I can, and when I have time, I will run to Aunt Chen's yard and talk to her.
It wasn't until more than a month had passed, when it was already spring, that Aunt Chen went down to the ground, and her complexion seemed to be better. Luo Xue was also in a good mood, and she worked much harder.
Having said that, Luo Xue's work in the past month is indeed much easier, no matter how much work Aunt Wu gives her, she can complete it on time, but the amount of food is also much larger.
In the past, Luo Xue had no appetite for this kind of radish pickles, and she ate very little every time, but now it is indeed a few large bowls and several large bowls, which is not very delicious, it is purely hungry, Luo Xue didn't think there was anything wrong, and thought that she was a long man with long strength.
It is precisely because Luo Xue has a lot of strength and works very well that although Aunt Wu is unwilling, she didn't find anything wrong with her, and life went on like this.
When I was young, I had endless work to do every day, so could this life be so cold? Is it just to farm and do farm work for the rest of my life? No, I have to find a way to get out of here.
It's not that she didn't think about pretending to be seriously ill and having no medicine to let Luofu take her back, but when she thought that Xiao Luoxue was five years old and froze to death, no one asked, even if she came to this body, she was dying and seriously ill, and she didn't see Luofu having the intention of taking her back, so even if she was sick again, what difference would the result be?
Maybe her father has long forgotten that she still has such a daughter, or maybe all the news she has here has long been blocked by that stepmother Nie, wishing she would die sooner, thinking about it, Luo Xue is really helpless.
