Chapter 23: A False Alarm

young girl like her to practice writing.Li Laosan made a set of half-human-height table and chairs for his niece, also prepared for his niece to study and write.Jiarren and Lig'er, one painting and t...Tao Hongying had been busy for a while, and when she turned around, she saw her daughter asleep. 。She habitually touched her daughter's forehead, then frowned, as if she was slightly feverish. 。Looking at her daughter's pale face, she became even more afraid. 。"Mother, Fu Niuer fell asleep right after coming back from the river. I think her complexion doesn't look quite right..." Tao Hongying carried Jia Yin to Li Lao Tai's side. 。Li Lao immediately took it, whispering a few coaxing words and pinching her granddaughter's cheek, but there was no reaction. She also panicked a little. 。“Second brother, go borrow a donkey cart. Little Fu seems to have a fever, hurry and go to the county to see a doctor!” Li Laotai directly wrapped her granddaughter in a small quilt and shouted at Li Er who had just returned outside. 。As soon as they heard that Fu Niuer might be sick, the entire Li family panicked. They dropped whatever they were doing and rushed to her side. 。Finally, it was Lao Er who drove the donkey cart, taking Old Li and Lao Si, as well as Tao Hongying, to the county. 。Too many people crowded the donkey cart, making it slow. The rest could only watch with tear-filled eyes from the doorway. 。Wu Cuifang was holding the jar of pickled eggs, drooling. Seeing this, she muttered to herself. 。As for that, a girl's movie..."Zhao Yu-ru listened and難得 glared at her, snatching the platform...The donkey cart swayed like a cradle, Jia Yin slept even deeper, not waking up once. 。This made Old Mrs. Li and Li Lao Si even more worried. 。Upon arriving in the county, the family went straight to Baicao Tang, the best-known apothecary renowned for its medicinal soups. 。The old man with white hair saw that the patient was a child, and he also took it very seriously. 。After examining his pulse and looking him over, he was a little amused and perplexed. 。"This child is fine, he's just too young. When he's growing, it's good for him to sleep a little more." 。However, I think I might have caught a cold and have a slight fever. 。"

She gently touched the child's palm and instructed him, 。"Go back and wipe her body with warm water, don't let her cry and waste her energy, it will be fine in a few days." 。“ When they heard this, the Li family’s hearts, which had been hanging in their throats, finally settled. 。Thanked the old doctor and paid ten wen for the consultation fee, the whole family left the pharmacy. 。 Seeing that it was still early, Li Lao Tai said, since she had the opportunity to go into town. 。"Lao Si, I'm going to sit here with Fu Niu'er for a while." 。You go to the market with Lao Er and Hong Ying, buy everything you need at home. 。Li Laosì glanced at the small basket of apples and chestnuts on the cart, his heart skipped a beat. 。This was what Zhao Yuru had packed when they rushed out. 。To prepare for the worst, I'll give this to the doctor. That way, they can do their best. 。"Mother, do you still remember that Liu Team Leader from the鏢 team before I want to go see him and send him these apples and chestnuts. Would that be alright" Li Laosi sought his mother's opinion. 。Li Laotai thought about how Liu Biaotou had taken care of their family on the road before. Where could there be any reason to disagree 。"Go ahead, but these mountain goods seem a bit light. You should go buy some other things to make up the amount, don't want it to be too meager." 。After Li Laotai finished speaking, she reached into her bosom and pulled out the largest silver ingot, handing it to her son. Then she said: 。Then go find Liu the鏢 head, and have your second brother watch over the cart. 。I, Hongying and Funiu went for a stroll. After half an hour we met here. 。"Understood, Mother." 。" Li Laosi habitually touched his daughter's little face, then asked along the way until he found the鏢局 。"Oh, Qiu Sheng, how did you come here Come in and sit!" Liu Biaotou was very happy to see Li Lao Si and pushed the small basket, refusing to take it. 。"What are you going to do with these things You have a whole family to feed!" Li Laosi picked up an apple, held it in his hand, and smiled. 。"Liu Gege, I won't bring out the other things, but this is something I found in the mountains a few days ago..." 。A rare good fruit, this just came for you to eat, have a fresh one. 。Liu Biaotou looked at the fruit, red and bright, and also liked it. 。"Indeed, this fruit doesn't look like it grows in the mountains. It looks delicious." 。My little boy has been a bit feverish lately, with blisters in his mouth. 。Then I won't be polite, take it back and give him a sweet kiss. 。Saying this, he happily reached out and pulled Li Lao Si down to sit. 。Li Lao Si reported his home address. 。Thank you so much, Brother Liu, for your care and attention. Thanks to you, our family was able to arrive safely in Junyang County. 。Now we have bought a house and land in Qingshui Village, and we plan to settle down there in the future. 。Whenever Liu Ge has some free time, I will definitely visit his home. 。" Of course, I will definitely go and visit you someday. I'll come around often." Let me know if you have any other translations you'd like help with! 。The two of them were laughing and having a good time, when suddenly Liu Biaotou thought of something and said 。"By the way, brothers, you guys are from out of town, aren't you You probably didn't bring all the things you need to get by here." 。We are close to Kyoto here, the government administration is strict, even buying a vegetable knife requires registration. 。He gestured towards Kyoto, with a hint of disdain. 。"Fortunately, the food we eat in our department is like licking blood off a knife. It's not difficult to find some iron." 。I bought two sickles, an axe for chopping wood, and an iron pot the other day. 。If you don't mind, take it back and use it later. 。Li Laosi was overjoyed. The only iron pot in his house came from the north, and the kitchen knife was dull, let alone other tools like axes and sickles. 。I wanted to buy it before, but I heard it was troublesome so I gave up. Unexpectedly, Liu Biantou solved it on the first try. 。"That's great, Liu Gege. You really came just in time." 。My family is really in need of these things, so brother won't be polite with you. 。Let's have a drink at your place another day. My wife is a great cook, so we can have a few drinks together. 。Well, it should be this refreshing. 。"I'm afraid you won't accept it. All this pleading and nagging, that's what a real man would do!" Liu Biaotou burst into laughter, he really got along with Li Laosi. 。After saying a few more words, Li Laosi missed his mother and wife and children, so he carried an iron pot and an axe and sickle and said goodbye. 。Of course, he insisted on giving five taels of silver, all he had in his arms was not enough, and next time he would have to make up for it. 。Liu, the head鏢, also agreed happily. He made another appointment to hunt and drink together when they were free, and then the two parted ways. 。On the other side, Lao Li held her granddaughter, while Tao Hongying, carrying a basket, also bought quite a bit. 。The whole family had just arrived and really lacked everything. 。To keep warm, you need to add some new cotton to the old padded pants and jacket. Jia Ren has grown taller and needs new inner clothes and cotton shoes as well. 。Furthermore, the Sun family only provided summer clothes and thin quilts. They didn't have any thick coats or quilts for winter... The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law both tried their best to save money and cut expenses. In the end, they still spent over three ounces of silver, filling two baskets. 。When Li Laosi returned happily, seeing the axe, sickle, and large iron pot, the whole family was overjoyed. 。This is the most lacking thing in our house. I originally wanted to ask the village chief for help, but unexpectedly, Liu Diao-tou solved it easily. 。A family of several people hurried back home in a cart, full of excitement. 。Jiayin finally woke up. Tao Hongying hurriedly hugged her daughter in her arms and fed her until she was full. 。Li Laotai immediately took it, kissed her granddaughter, and played with her for a while. 。Seeing her granddaughter's flushed face and big eyes rolling around, she was truly not like someone who was sick. She finally felt relieved. 。Stepping on the hues of the setting sun, the donkey cart rattled along, finally spotting the village entrance of Qingshui Village in the distance. 。"What's going on There seem to be a lot of people at the village entrance"Li Laosì had good eyesight, he stretched his neck forward to look. 。As we got closer, there was indeed a faint sound of commotion coming from within. 。 ask of you to carry the weight of the family.”"But we have to look forward, our family will only get better. The children are still young, so my four brothers will have to work harder! You do a good...
