After all, when she first came here, she was secretly talked about by the girls and boys in the village for a long time because of her outstanding looks and her identity as a city girl.
She actually likes this kind of envious discussion.
But the discussions she overheard today were different. They were discussing her and Xiang Shunqiang, who had his back beaten in front of everyone and was currently recuperating at home.
The villagers were all wondering when Liu Mei and Xiang Shunqiang got together and how long they would be together.
When Liu Mei, who wished Xiang Shunqiang would be beaten to death, heard these words, she almost rushed out and beat to death all the villagers who were gossiping with bricks.
But she didn't dare, she could only suppress her hatred, choose a new path, and leave by a longer route.
As for Xiang Baiwei, it is said that she accompanied Jiang Sui to the provincial capital for training.
That’s great. I really envy her.
Everything Xiang Baiwei has now should have belonged to her.
In the distance, Xiang Baiwei, who was talking to Wang Chunhua, vaguely felt the gaze behind her and subconsciously turned back to look.
Liu Mei was so scared that she quickly looked away, turned off the flashlight in her hand, and hid in the deep night to prevent Xiang Baiwei from discovering her presence.
We were busy until almost dawn, when the rain gradually subsided.
The group of people had been busy all night and were extremely tired. The village chief Xiang Laogen quickly sent them to sleep and arranged for someone else to come and watch over the dam.
After returning home, Xiang Baiwei took off her raincoat and sneezed several times in a row.
Seeing this, Jiang Sui came over with a worried look on his face: "Did you catch a cold?"
Xiang Baiwei rubbed her stuffy nose and said, "Maybe, but it doesn't matter. There should be some ginger in the kitchen. I can mix some hot water and ground ginger to make some ginger water to drink. I can sweat a little, and then I can go to bed and have a good sleep and I'll be fine."
"Please change into clean clothes first. I'll make you some ginger soup and boil some hot water. You can take a hot bath and then go to bed."
Xiang Baiwei wanted to go out to help, but Jiang Sui refused to let her go out no matter what: "Be obedient, stay in the room, close the doors and windows, be good, and don't go out again."
"Okay, okay, I won't go out. Don't talk in that tone. It's creepy."
"What's wrong with my tone?"
"Nothing...Nothing. I'm going to go change my clothes."
Xiang Baiwei rubbed the goose bumps on her arms, turned and went into the inner room, ready to find dry clothes to change into.
Jiang Sui's tone when he spoke just now was gentle and sticky. Xiang Baiwei was not used to Jiang Sui like this and couldn't help but speak out her true feelings.
Jiang Sui, who was making a fire in the kitchen outside, sighed as he struck a match, blaming himself for being so unkind in his previous life and hurting Xiang Baiwei's enthusiasm.
That's why she is so resistant to trying to be gentle and considerate.
But it doesn’t matter, there is still a long way to go.
Tired after a sleepless night, Jiang Sui prepared some food and boiled a large pot of hot water. The two of them took a hot bath, then went to bed, covered themselves with the quilt and fell into a deep sleep.
The rain didn't seem to be stopping, and Xiang Baiwei actually caught a cold because of being caught in the rain.
That afternoon, Jiang Sui woke up and felt thirsty, so he got off the kang, poured a glass of water, and drank it while watching the rain outside.
Until the night fell, Xiang Baiwei still showed no sign of waking up, and Jiang Sui walked over with some concern.
"Weiwei, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Sui was so scared that he quickly reached out to touch Bai Wei's forehead. It was burning hot, and it seemed that she had a fever.
Jiang Sui opened the window and looked at the rain outside. It was raining heavily. He could go to the clinic in the rain to find a doctor, but he was afraid that there would be no one in the clinic.
After weighing the pros and cons for a while, Jiang Sui closed the window, took off his shoes and got on the kang, then consciously entered the system mall and went straight to the medical area inside.
Jiang Sui picked out the most effective antipyretic medicine he had ever used, took it out, poured a cup of warm water, woke up the sleepy Xiang Baiwei, and coaxed her to take the medicine.
Not long after taking the medicine, the temperature on Xiang Baiwei's forehead gradually dropped, and Jiang Sui finally felt relieved.
Afterwards, Jiang Sui looked at the medicine he had taken out from the system mall, which was impossible to appear in this era. After thinking about it, he recalled the medicine into the system.
Then he looked outside and saw that the rain seemed to have eased a little, so he put on his raincoat and ran out.
Twenty minutes later, when Jiang Sui came back, the first thing he did was to check on Xiang Baiwei on the kang.
Xiang Baiwei's forehead was no longer hot, but she was still sleeping.
I guess he's exhausted.
Jiang Sui did not disturb her, but went to the kitchen to make some food that Xiang Baiwei liked to eat. After everything was done, he went into the inner room and called her, "Weiwei, don't sleep anymore, wake up quickly, eat something before going to sleep."
Xiang Baiwei, who was awakened, looked at Jiang Sui blankly, then rubbed her face with her hands: "Why do I feel so tired?"
"You caught a cold after being in the rain for so long. When I woke up in the afternoon, I found that your forehead was burning hot. Fortunately, there were some medicines at home, so I asked you to take one." Jiang Sui took the shoes and put them on the ground beside the kang. "I've already prepared the meal. Hurry up and put on your shoes and go out to eat."
Xiang Baiwei's steps were still a little unsteady. Seeing that she was not motivated at all, Jiang Sui said, "Okay, don't come down. Close the curtains above and put the table on the kang. We will eat on the kang."
It is not uncommon to eat on the kang, but Xiang Baiwei and Jiang Sui usually eat at the dining table outside due to personal habit.
Except when it was extremely cold in winter, the couple rarely ate on the kang.
Jiang Sui set up the kang table, went to the dining table outside to bring the food, and thoughtfully got a wet towel for Xiang Baiwei to wipe her hands: "It just so happens that there are a few white flour buns at home. I fried them with oil. You will enjoy them."
Xiang Baiwei looked at the cut duck eggs on the plate that were oozing with oil: "This is for entertaining guests, why did you take it out?"
"You're sick, you should eat something good." Jiang Sui even took out the canned fruit he brought from the city. "Ma Fengcheng told me that if someone in his family is sick, they'll buy canned yellow peaches. Although this one is hawthorn, it's almost the same. It'll whet your appetite."
Xiang Baiwei, who had just had a fever and had no appetite, really wanted to eat canned hawthorns. She took the spoon, held the can, and ate four or five in one breath before letting go.
Jiang Sui was sitting opposite him, and his teeth ached just by looking at him: "Hurry up and eat. Canned food alone won't fill you up. If you like it, you can eat the canned food slowly after dinner."
He nodded to Bai Wei, picked up the chopsticks, held the bowl and slowly drank the porridge in it.
As she drank, an image flashed through her mind: "What was that medicine you gave me?"
"It's...antipyretic medicine. Don't worry, it's not a fatal poison." Jiang Sui smiled and joked with her.
He smiled faintly at Bai Wei and suppressed the thoughts in his mind.
