Even many people in the village couldn't let go of Lian'er.

Aunt Wu watched Lian'er grow up with her own eyes.

She has been running a fever these past few days, and many people in Guquan Village have been praying to God, hoping that Lian'er can escape danger and get better as soon as possible.

"Okay, you go first." Li Xia licked her lips, nodded and said, "I'll go back and pack up, and I'll be there soon."

She wished that Aunt Wu could walk faster, faster, or at least stay further away from her.

Otherwise she would have been sticking around and talking to her.

I’m afraid that I might speak too fast and be exposed.

"Okay, I'll talk to Lian'er's mother."

Aunt Wu nodded and spoke.

“Huh~”

After Aunt Wu finished speaking, she strode forward and soon put some distance between herself and Li Xia, who was walking slowly.

Li Xia breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Aunt Wu's back gradually walking away.

When I heard Aunt Wu suddenly ask that question just now, my heart really jumped into my throat.

Fortunately, it is still early. Except for a few villagers in the village who knew that she had gone in to collect herbs before dawn, many people have not left their homes yet.

Li Xia looked around and found that there were indeed no pedestrians on the road.

But she was still worried.

Just now, Aunt Wu paid attention to the way she walked.

Although she found an excuse, she managed to get around it temporarily.

But I’m afraid of meeting other people on the road.

Then you may not be as lucky as you just now.

Li Xia thought about it and decided to take a slightly shorter path.

Although the road conditions here are not very easy to travel, at least few people will take this road.

More importantly, if you walk directly from here, it will be almost half the distance compared to taking the main road in the village to where you live.

If she went back through the small road, she could save time and conceal herself from others.

After going back to pack up, she will go to see Lian'er immediately.

Although her high fever will subside slowly after taking the herb, the most important thing is the whole day today.

It is easy to reduce fever, but it is a bit difficult to prevent the fever from recurring once it is reduced.

I have to stay by Lian'er's side today and keep an eye on her condition.

Since this path was used by the village many years ago, no one has walked on it for a long time, and both sides of the road are covered with weeds taller than people.

Li Xia picked up a wooden stick from the side and held it in front of him to prevent himself from being cut by the weeds.
