Brother Niu was eventually suppressed by Niu Dazhu and returned home unwillingly. However, Tang Yuanyuan felt that Brother Niu would never give up, but that was none of her business. Whether he stayed or left, she wouldn't interfere.

The children were tired from playing all day, so after dinner, Tangyuan was about to take the two siblings upstairs to take a bath and go to bed, but they had only just reached the bottom of the stairs.

"Ouch... Mommy... my tummy hurts..." Roubao suddenly whimpered, his little face scrunched up, and he sat down on the ground crying.

Tangyuan was startled and picked up Roubao. "Where does it hurt? Tell Mommy. Is it here? Do you need to poop?"

"Ouch... Waaah... It hurts so much..."

Roubao just cried, her little face was all wet, it was hard to tell if it was tears or sweat, and she couldn't say where it hurt. Just in case, Tangyuan carried Roubao to the bathroom, afraid that she would soil herself.

But they had only gone halfway when Roubao vomited all over Tangyuanyuan. He threw up everything he had eaten that night, along with some unidentified stuff. It had a sour and foul smell, and Tangyuanyuan's clothes were covered in vomit.

She didn't bother wiping it clean, but gently patted the back of the meat bun and soothed it softly.

Roubao vomited three times in total. The first time it was still food, but the later vomiting was clear water and even bile. Her face turned pale, and the energetic little girl suddenly became weak and listless, leaning against Tangyuanyuan without even having the strength to hum.

"What happened? Why did she vomit? She didn't eat anything wrong tonight!" Tie Dan's mother was so anxious that she couldn't speak coherently. First, her two grandsons were in trouble, and now her little granddaughter was in trouble. Everything was going wrong.

"I have to go to the temple to pray tomorrow. I must have offended the Bodhisattva, otherwise why would things be so unlucky?" Tie Dan's mother muttered to herself, even thinking of going to the temple now to get some incense ash to make a drink for Rou Bao.

When Tie Dan and Ya Dan were young, they would drink incense ash to get better when they were sick. This temple was the one where Wu Chen and Ye Mingcheng stayed. Since Ye Mingcheng and Wu Chen left, the temple's incense offerings have become less and less popular. However, the temple is now under the management of the township government, which allocates some money every year. The monks in the temple also grow some vegetables and grains, so they can be self-sufficient, although life is a bit hard.

"You hold him, I'll go get the medicine for Roubao."

Tang Yuanyuan stuffed the meat bun into Tie Dan's hands, then went upstairs to get the stomach-soothing pills that Ye Qingqing had prepared. Children are most afraid of getting sick when they are away from home, so she had prepared a lot of pills before she came, including those for colds, fevers, vomiting, diarrhea, and heatstroke.

I dissolved the pills in warm water and gave them to Roubao. He fell asleep soon after, but his face was still pale and he would sob occasionally. He insisted on being held by Tiedan to sleep, and would cry as soon as I put him on the bed.

Tang Yuanyuan went to change her clothes, but found that the vomit on her dirty clothes was strange. It didn't look like the dishes she had eaten that night, and some of them were obviously wild fruits, and there was more than one of them.

When Niu Dazhu saw that his granddaughter was better, he breathed a long sigh of relief, but he was still worried. He was afraid that she had suffered heatstroke when he took her to the mountain today. He had even specially chosen the shadiest watermelon patch. Alas, his granddaughter's body was still too weak.

Tangyuan called Roubing upstairs and asked him in detail what he had done on the mountain that morning. Roubing said excitedly, "Grandpa made a cage and caught a grasshopper. The grasshoppers chirped so beautifully. There were also cicadas. Mom, the mountain was so much fun, and there was so much delicious food. My sister and I ate our fill."

"What did you eat? Wild fruit?"

"Mmm, so many wild fruits, all picked by Grandpa. Grandpa even roasted grasshoppers and cicadas for us, they smelled so good, so delicious." Meatball licked his lips with lingering satisfaction. He was going to go up the mountain with Grandpa again tomorrow, which was much more interesting than staying at home.

Tangyuan's face immediately darkened; she knew he hadn't done anything good on the mountain.
