Chapter 327 Cancellation Decision
"An An." Lin Xia slightly lifted An An's quilt, and seeing her red face, she immediately felt something was wrong, so she reached out and touched it.
When she reached out and touched something hot, Lin Xia was startled. She lowered her head and used her forehead to check the temperature and found out that she had a fever.
"An An, wake up quickly." Lin Xia reached out and shook An An, trying to see if she was still conscious.
"Mom, I feel so uncomfortable..." An An finally woke up after a few minutes, and her clear voice became hoarse.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?" Lin Xia couldn't help but sound anxious. These children rarely get sick.
"Mom will get the thermometer. An An, wait for mom. Don't be afraid." Lin Xia reached out and patted the little guy. "You two can play with your sister, okay?"
After getting answers from the two little guys, Lin Xia went downstairs with peace of mind.
"An An has a fever." Lin Xia shouted towards the kitchen, and then hurried to look for the medicine box in the cabinet, where there was a thermometer she had prepared.
"What?" Lu Yuxiu heard the voice coming out of the kitchen, and seeing Lin Xia's anxious look, he asked hurriedly.
"An An has a fever, and we don't know how high it is." Lin Xia tried her best to remain calm and suppress the panic in her heart.
"I'll go find Zhou Zheng." Lu Yuxiu made a prompt decision and went out, not knowing whether Zhou Zheng had gone out.
Lin Xia nodded, took the thermometer, poured a cup of warm water and went upstairs.
Holding An An in her arms, Lin Xia clipped a thermometer under her armpit and said, "Come and drink some water."
"Don't be afraid, mom is here, and dad has gone to find Uncle Zhou Zheng. He will come to see the baby soon." Lin Xia was anxious, fearing that the baby would have a serious fever. It was still cloudy outside, and she knew the road would be difficult to walk on.
After a while, footsteps were heard on the stairs, and Lu Yuxiu came up with Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the child was conscious.
"I'm taking her temperature." Lin Xia felt better when she saw Zhou Zheng. She felt more at ease having a doctor around.
"Thirty-eight point five degrees." Zhou Zheng took the thermometer and said with a frown.
The temperature for children is still a little too high. It would be good if it could be cooled down, but it would be terrible if the temperature goes up.
"Can we use warm water to wipe the body to cool down?" Lin Xia thought of a way to cool down and asked Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng hesitated for a few seconds, thought about it and said, "Try it first, and then measure the temperature again and observe it."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuxiu turned around and went downstairs to get some water. Lin Xia took the basin and prepared to wipe An An's body. Lu Yuxiu took the two little ones downstairs.
"Please give my leader a message for me. I won't go to the camp today." Lu Yuxiu asked with a frown.
"Okay, I'll come back and take a look later." Zhou Zheng patted Lu Yuxiu's shoulder and walked out. He was going to the infirmary to get the medicine box and come back to take a look. If the condition was serious, he would need an injection.
After seeing Zhou Zheng off, Lu Yuxiu went back upstairs with a frown on his face.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yuxiu asked softly when he saw Lin Xia covering An An with a quilt.
"Falling asleep." Lin Xia made a gesture, picked up the basin of water and went out before speaking.
"You take the kids to eat, I'll go upstairs to look after An An." Lin Xia was worried that An An wouldn't be able to find anyone when she woke up, so she said to Lu Yuxiu worriedly, then slapped her head and said, "I almost forgot that you still have to go to the camp, so hurry up and have breakfast."
Seeing that she was so busy that she didn't forget that he had to go to the camp, Lu Yuxiu couldn't help but think of the time when he was on a mission, and how she managed to handle the child's illness alone.
"I've asked for leave and won't be going to the camp today." After saying that, Lu Yuxiu took the two children to the bathroom to wash up.
When Lin Xia saw that he was not going to the camp, she was immediately relieved. She had to take care of An An and two little ones, and she was indeed too busy, but it was much better to have him at home.
Seeing that the two little guys were being taken care of, Lin Xia turned around and went upstairs to look after An An.
After more than ten minutes, he took out the thermometer and measured An An's temperature again.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yuxiu suddenly asked, waking up Lin Xia who was in a daze.
"Taking the temperature, where are the children?" Lin Xia saw him coming up alone, and there was no sign of the two little ones behind him.
"I'm eating. I'll watch over you. Go eat."
Lin Xia shook her head, looked at An An and said, "It's okay, I can't eat now, wait a while."
After taking the temperature, Lin Xia breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it had dropped to 38 degrees. A child having a fever is the most terrifying thing. In her previous life, she had seen many children having a fever and no one paid attention to them because of the negligence of adults, and the children ended up becoming stupid due to the fever.
Lin Xia was afraid that something like this would happen, so she had no choice but to stare at the child without blinking.
"Wipe it again." Seeing that she didn't want to eat, Lu Yuxiu got up and went downstairs to fetch a basin of water.
After Lin Xia finished wiping An An, she saw that An An’s wrinkled face had relaxed a little, and her worry was put to rest.
"An An definitely can't take the bus in this condition." Lin Xia suddenly remembered going back home for the New Year. With the child so sick, it would be impossible for him to take the train. Not only was the journey long, but he couldn't get enough rest or food on the train.
"Then I won't go back this year." Lu Yuxiu made a decisive decision after pondering for a few seconds.
They would have to go back in two days, and An An must not have recovered yet. Lu Yuxiu couldn't bear to take the child through this.
The two of them agreed that Lin Xia was now preoccupied with her child's illness and had no time to think about the New Year.
The two of them took turns guarding while the other went downstairs to look after the children. Lin Xia came to her senses and didn't dare let the two get close to An An. If two more of them caught a cold, she really wouldn't be able to take care of them.
"How is my sister-in-law's child?" Zhou Zheng came back with a medicine box and asked Lin Xia when he saw him.
"The temperature dropped a little before, but then rose again. It's now 38 degrees." Lin Xia explained to Zhou Zheng that this is how a cold and fever work, with repeated drops in temperature and rises in temperature.
If it hadn't been for the fact that she hadn't reached 39 yet, Lin Xia would have definitely asked Lu Yuxiu to borrow a car to take her to the hospital.
After going upstairs, Lu Yuzheng was feeding An An water. The water contained Lin Xia's lemon and a little bit of salt. It could supplement vitamins and the water in the body that evaporated due to fever.
"Uncle Zhou." An An called out in a low voice when she saw Zhou Zheng. She looked weak after falling ill.
Zhou Zheng reached out and touched the little guy's head, "Be good, you'll be fine tomorrow."
An An nodded, feeling uncomfortable all over, but the little guy had a good personality and would not lose his temper.
After measuring the temperature again, Zhou Zheng gave Lin Xia a shot of prevention, "The temperature has dropped now, but it may rise again in the future. Then you will have to get a shot."
Lin Xia nodded. At that time, it was not easy to get injections in the hospital. Fortunately, Zhou Zheng was a military doctor and could prescribe anti-inflammatory injections.
"You go to sleep, I'll keep watch."
Lin Xia shook her head. This night was the most critical. She would definitely have a fever again. She couldn't sleep just thinking about it. "Where are Lele and Ningning? Are they asleep?"
