Li Xu continued, "It's okay, just wait until breakfast and let your sister-in-law sew it up for you."

Li Ju said "hmm" and then took a few more steps.

Li Xu laughed as he watched from behind.

Li Ju's thin body, wearing loose clothes, made her walk like a penguin.

Swaying.

Li Mei glanced at him and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Li Xu thought about it and thought that she might not know about penguins. "Don't you think that when my little sister walks in this dress, she looks like a little duck?"

Li Mei asked Li Ju to take a few more steps and see.

Although Li Ju looked confused, she still did as she was told.

Li Mei stared at it for a while, and suddenly burst out laughing.

He laughed and said, "It really looks like it."

The others were also confused and asked.

Li Xu told the story again.

Everyone let Li Ju take a few more steps.

Then they all started laughing.

Only Li Ju pouted and looked unhappy.

While on the way to work, Li Xu found that most people on the street were wearing cotton coats.

Uncle Xu at the gate was also wrapped very tightly.

Li Xu immediately laughed, "Uncle Xu, aren't you hot when you're wrapped up so tightly?"

Uncle Xu glanced at him and said, "It's very windy here. If you don't wrap yourself up tightly, you really can't stand it."

"With your physique, are you afraid of such a small breeze?"

Uncle Xu said angrily, "You little brat, you're still talking about Xiao Feng? I won't say any more. Just stay here for the whole morning and see."

Li Xu chuckled and shook his head quickly, "Forget it, I'm going in."

While he was talking for a few words, Li Xu felt the cold wind blowing even harder, causing pain on his face.

I suddenly realized that if I didn't dress warmly here, my body might not be able to withstand it.

After arriving at the car team, Li Xu opened the door and got in without saying a word.

Now I feel much better.

After a while, Liu Gang also got in and said, "I knew you were sitting in the car. We are going to go out to transport some goods tomorrow."

"Or round trip on the same day?"

"Um."

Then Li Xu thought for a moment, "Uncle Liu, can you get some cotton?"

We are talking about cotton here, not tickets.

Because this thing is like pork now, there are tickets, but there is no stock...

Liu Gang glanced at him and said, "We don't produce cotton here, where can I get it for you?"

Li Xu scratched his head and said, "I thought you, Uncle Liu, were very capable and could get it."

"Don't flatter me, kid. I'm not as capable as you."

"Okay, forget it if you don't have any. I'm thinking of getting some cotton to make another cotton coat."

Liu Gang looked at him and said, "Your cotton coat is quite good. Look at the one I'm wearing. It's not much different from yours."

The cotton coat Liu Gang wore was the same as Li Xu's, with many patches on it.

There is no way, making a cotton coat really takes too much fabric...

Li Xu also explained, "I just feel a little cold, so I want to make another one."

In fact, he felt that he would have to wear this cotton coat for at least several months without having to change or wash it, and he couldn't bear the thought of it.

So I wanted to get some cotton and use my old clothes to make one to wear.

But he couldn't tell the truth, lest Liu Gang think he was being pretentious.

How many people nowadays don’t wear the same cotton-padded jacket for several months?

Liu Gang also responded, "Then you can wear two more layers inside first. When the weather is fine in a few days, take out this cotton coat to dry in the sun, and then pat it more."

Since there was no way to get cotton, Li Xu had no choice but to agree and thanked Liu Gang.

At noon, sporadic snowflakes were floating in the sky.

Unfortunately, the rain stopped after a few minutes and there was no trace of it on the ground.

The two of them sat in the car for the entire day.

The rest of the team did the same...

After get off work in the afternoon, Li Xu did not see Li Ju in the yard or the main hall.

She couldn't help but feel puzzled, so she asked Hu Guilan, "Sister-in-law, where is my younger sister? Why can't I see her?"

Hu Guilan replied, "Xiaoju is sick and is sleeping in the house."

"Huh?" Li Xu was startled. "You were fine this morning, how come you suddenly got sick?"

"Just like that, she played hard during the day, and when she got too hot, she secretly took off her coat, and then she caught a cold."

Li Xu couldn't help but ask nervously, "Does my little sister have a fever? Do we need to go to the hospital?"

Hu Guilan waved her hand. "She doesn't have a fever, just a cold. I even made her some ginger and sugar water. She also sweated in the afternoon. She's sleeping now. I'll call her when it's time for dinner."

Li Xu was also relieved, "That's good."

Children are weak, so once they have a fever, you cannot delay treatment.

Now that it's just a cold and I'm sweating, there's basically no problem.

Li Jiakang and others also learned about this incident after they came back, and they were all heartbroken.

Sun Xiu was even more angry and distressed and said, "This child, when I left this morning, I repeatedly told her not to take off her clothes, but she just wouldn't listen. Now look what happened."

Li Ping also spoke up, "Mom, my little sister is only a few years old. It's normal for her to get too excited and not be able to control herself."

Li Jiakang also agreed, "Yeah, they're just kids, as long as they're okay."

Although Li Ju is usually quite obedient, there are occasional exceptions.

Hu Guilan then said, "Dad, Mom, we can have dinner now. Shall I go get Xiaoju?"

Sun Xiu waved her hand, "Don't shout, it's so cold, she still has a cold, if she gets caught in the wind it will get worse, let's eat first, and then bring her some after dinner."

Hu Guilan nodded in agreement.

After everyone finished their meal, the food was served to Li Mei's room.

Li Mei went forward and woke up Li Ju.

Li Ju rubbed her sleepy eyes, looking confused. "Sister, what do you want me to do?"

The sound also changed, not as crisp as usual.

Li Mei said with a smile, "What else are you doing? I called you to eat, look who's here."

Li Ju tried hard to turn her head, and then she saw Sun Xiu and others were looking at her.

Li Ju called out to several people timidly.

Then you have to get up and get dressed.

Sun Xiu said unhappily, "Why are you getting up? Just eat here."

After saying that, Li Xu brought the food over and said, "Little sister, hurry up and eat. You will get better faster if you are full."

Li Ju sniffed and said, "Brother, I don't have much of an appetite right now."

Li Mei, who was standing by, also handed over a handkerchief and said, "Wipe your nose first before you talk."

After Li Ju took it, she wiped her nose and said a little embarrassedly, "Thank you, big sister."

Li Mei also tapped her little head with her hand and said, "Okay, let's eat quickly."

Li Ju turned over in the quilt again, and then lay on the bed. Li Xu put the food in front of her.

After taking a few bites, Li Ju stopped eating.
