A koi spirit transmigrated into a book, becoming the daughter of a condemned official. As soon as she was born, her grandmother wanted to give her to a man-eating hunter. She could only cry and com...
Just after everyone had left, Zhu Yanyan arrived late and helped her mother up with a puzzled expression.
"Mother, what happened?"
"Why are you so late? Your father was beaten by Old Lady Zhu and her family."
Wen Xiuying appeared only after her daughter had finished, angrily pushed her away, and struggled to her feet as she walked towards Zhu Borong.
Zhu Borong lay on the ground, his body covered in bruises, weakly reaching out to his daughter and wife.
"You must avenge me and kill them all."
Seeing her father and mother's appearance, Zhu Yanyan clenched her fists in anger and said fiercely.
"Don't worry, tomorrow is their death day."
After leaving the scene of the incident, Grandma Zhu and her family quickly returned to the camp, where everyone hurriedly lit a fire and took out an iron pot to boil water.
Old Mrs. Zhu sat next to Mrs. Liu and took the blanket from Mrs. Tao and covered her with it.
She just watched her daughter-in-law without asking anything, her eyes red as she secretly wiped away tears.
Tao was shocked that such a big thing had happened at home while she was away for only a short time, and she sighed sadly.
After hiding all the food in her long skirt, Sun sat down in front of the stone stool and looked at her mother-in-law with a troubled expression.
"mother....."
"Hmm, what's wrong?"
Grandma Zhu secretly wiped away her tears, looked tenderly at her daughter-in-law, and asked in a choked voice.
Sun looked at Tao with a troubled expression, hesitating whether or not to speak.
After meeting Sun's gaze, Tao remembered that she had something to say to her mother-in-law.
"Mother, sister-in-law, we just found something good in the grass."
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Zhu frowned in confusion, "What did you find?"
After carefully observing her surroundings, Tao gestured for her mother-in-law to follow her.
Seeing Tao's furtive movements, the others followed her out of curiosity.
The group arrived at the cart loaded with supplies, squatted down, and waited curiously.
Tao remained vigilant, looking around cautiously. Only after confirming that no one was around did he pull the basket out from under the car.
She carefully lifted the veil to reveal the food inside.
Zhu Xiaobao was the first to see the roast duck and pig's trotters in the basket. He almost shouted out in excitement, staring wide-eyed at the food.
"Pig... Pig..."
"This is... roast duck, pig's trotters, steamed buns, and this is a rice ball?"
While the others were speechless with surprise, Zhu Chenfeng calmly examined the contents of the basket.
Since hearing his niece's heartfelt words, he has become accustomed to such things.
It took Zhu Haotian a while to recover before he looked at his wife in surprise and asked happily, "Where did you find this food? It's not some kind of sacrificial offering, is it?"
"Pah, no, I don't know why they're in the bushes. I went to relieve myself with my third brother's wife and I saw these things in the basket."
Upon hearing her husband's speculation, Tao quickly spat to the side and angrily pushed him.
"Oh right, and this too. Judging from the packaging, it looks like they're all medicine."
Only after her sister-in-law showed her the food did Mrs. Sun carefully pull the medicine out from under the car.
Grandma Zhu curiously lifted the veil and picked up a box of pain-relieving ointment to examine it. She understood some of the writing on it but not all of it.
Sun took the box and opened it curiously. Inside was a note. She opened the note and read it.
The note was covered in pictures, illustrating the uses and contraindications of the medicine.
"If I'm not mistaken, this box of medicine is for treating sprains."
After hearing this, Zhu Chenfeng took the medicine from Sun's hand, examined it carefully, and nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, it says to stick it on the sprained area and it will be better overnight. Why don't we try it on Mom?"
"Okay, let's try it. It hurts so much. If something unexpected happens, I won't be able to run with this back condition."
Grandma Zhu agreed with her son's opinion. Although these things were very suspicious, they were not qualified to investigate their origins at the moment. As long as they could live, that was enough.
"Mom, Jiayan will help you put it on. I'll take out the food and heat it up, and hide the rest."
After seeing her mother-in-law get up, Tao smiled, licked her lips, and took out the basket.
Grandma Zhu stood up, glanced around, and whispered, "Besides the steamed buns, eat everything else tonight if you can, otherwise it will spoil in this hot weather tomorrow."
"Also, second brother, after we finish eating and everyone goes to sleep, put the goat down and take it to feed the grass nearby."
Upon hearing that there would be meat to eat, everyone's fighting spirit instantly soared, and they quickly got up to help cook the meat. Meanwhile, Mrs. Sun focused on studying the uses of the other medicines.
These medications all have instructions; be sure to take them as directed.
Otherwise you'll get an upset stomach!
Everyone here is so capable, they'll definitely understand the blueprint instructions.
Zhu Xixi lay comfortably on the cart, occasionally kicking her little feet, waving her little hands, and shaking her body in response to the noise around her.
Sitting on the cart, Liu held a fan in her hand, gently fanning away the mosquitoes around the woman, tenderly touching her small face.
While researching medicines, Mr. Sun discovered a brown bottle among many that could relieve summer heat.
She hesitated for a moment, then carefully took the bottle to Liu's side and said cautiously, "Sister-in-law, I saw in the diagram that this is a medicine to relieve heatstroke, would you like some...?"
Upon hearing this, Liu turned around, took the medicine bottle and diagram from her sister-in-law, glanced at them, and nodded. "The diagram says that this medicine can indeed relieve heatstroke, and it also indicates the usage instructions."
Just then, Zhu Xixi slowly opened her eyes and, upon seeing the Huoxiang Zhengqi Water in her mother's hand, excitedly waved her little hands.
Yes, yes, this can cool you down!
Although it's bitter, Xixi will try her best to swallow it!
Seeing this, Liu quickly picked her up and fed her with a small spoon, asking, "Xixi, are you hungry?"
Zhu Xixi was in so much pain that she couldn't drink any milk. She would spit out a mouthful after each sip, and her clothes were soaked in no time.
She pursed her lips in distress and waved her hands.
[XiXi feels unwell, can't eat, and wants to take medicine.]
[Eat the medicine from your uncle's hand.]
Upon hearing Xixi's thoughts, Liu understood instantly and picked up the medicine bottle to take a look.
Then, she pulled out the stopper, poured the medicine onto a small spoon, and placed it on Zhu Xixi's little mouth.
After drinking the medicine, Zhu Xixi tried her best to swallow it all with her tongue, taking several sips in a row.
She instantly felt much better, and her face was no longer listless; she pouted and blew bubbles.
I finally feel better, but the medicine was so bitter!
[Waaaaah, so bitter!]
Upon seeing her daughter regain her spirits, Liu burst into tears of joy and shared the good news with everyone.
"Mother, Xixi is feeling much better after taking this medicine."
With Sun's help, Grandma Zhu also applied the ointment, which greatly reduced her pain.
Upon hearing what the eldest son's wife said, he quickly stood up, went to Zhu Xixi's side, and picked her up.
"Sure enough, her little face looks more energetic than before. Thank goodness, our Xixi has finally made it through."
Liu looked excitedly at the medicine bottle in her hand, quickly put the stopper back in place, and handed the bottle to her mother-in-law.
"Mom, this can relieve the heat, so we won't be afraid of heatstroke anymore."
Grandma Zhu looked at the strange bottle in her daughter-in-law's hand and a happy smile appeared on her face.
"Okay, our Xixi is our lucky star. She always helps us turn adversity into opportunity and find a solution."
