Chapter 108 Everyone Catches Bugs for the Child
After Lin Shu put the cloth down, he hesitantly took out a few wrapped cakes from his pocket and held them in his hand: "Fairy, this snack we gave you at lunch is delicious. I didn't eat any of it, so I'll give it all to you."
Xie Zaozao: "The child can't eat this kind of snack. He can't bite it."
Lin Shu was stunned and thought, I'm not giving this to the child, I'm giving this to you.
But when he glanced at the child sleeping soundly in the bed, he felt his face flushed and was startled: "Is the child sick?"
Xie Zao Zao nodded.
Lin Shu went over and touched the child's head: "Your fever is quite high. Did you catch a cold?"
Xie Zao Zao sighed: "Do you think so too?"
Lin Shu nodded. "When I was wandering, there were many little beggars in the temple. They would get fever and convulsions on snowy winter days. Some of them would survive, but some couldn't..."
Xie Zaozao touched the clothes on Xiao Xingsu. They were all bought in town. They were fine for ordinary winter days. However, Tingshuixie was in the mountains, so it was naturally colder, especially with the snow.
At this moment, there was a sound of stepping on snow at the door. Chen Jiayou lifted the curtain and came in. "Little guy, Uncle Chen is here - Hey, why are you sleeping?"
As he spoke, he strode in to see little Xingsu. Lin Shu thought he was moving too much and disturbing the child, so he said to him, "You are full of cold air. Don't come over here. The child is sick."
"Sick?" Chen Jiayou was shocked. "My baby is sick?"
After confirming that Xiao Xingsu was indeed sick, Chen Jiayou quickly ran back to the school to get medicine, wanting to give it to the child, but the child had just fallen asleep and could not take the medicine, so he had to put it aside for the time being.
The two men surrounded the child with distressed looks on their faces, as if the sick person was not someone else's child, but their own child.
Looking at the two people next to Xingxu, Xie Zaozao relaxed a little. Her eyes fell on the clothes and cotton sent by Shuyue.
She asked Lin Shu to watch the child while she went forward to pick up the fabric. The fabric was thin, smooth and extremely comfortable to the touch. It was obvious that it was made of high-quality material.
It’s just that the color is a bit bland. It’s okay for an adult man to wear it, but it really doesn’t look good on a child.
Look at the little guy's snow-white skin. He would look better in red.
Use these first, and then ask Shuyue later if she has any brighter materials.
Xie Zaozao picked up the scissors while thinking.
Before I even started cutting, I heard Chen Jiayou's voice: "Thank you, Miss, for cutting clothes?"
Xie Zao Zao nodded: "Make a thick coat for the child."
Chen Jiayou said, "Why don't you draw a paper pattern?"
Xie Zaozao: "What is a paper pattern?"
Chen Jiayou was also stunned: "What are you going to do?"
Xie Zaozao gestured with the fabric and started making the sleeves by cutting two rectangles and sewing them together.
Chen Jiayou had never heard of this operation before and was confused: "Then how do you put cotton in it?"
Xie Zaozao: "Then make four, two big ones and two small ones, stacked together."
After saying that, he cut four pieces in one minute. None of them were the same in size and length, and they were spread out on the table in various shapes.
Then she began to sew laboriously.
After a few stitches, she screamed and got pricked by the needle.
Sew again, ah, it’s tied again.
When she was saying it for the 38th time, Chen Jiayou couldn't stand it anymore. Will this finger still be usable if she pricked it again?
He found a piece of paper, drew a pattern on it, and patiently explained: "Draw the pattern first, then cut according to the pattern."
Xie Zaozao nodded as if she understood, and drew a strange shape on the paper that was neither round nor square.
"Where is this..." Chen Jiayou asked.
Xie Zaozao: "It's the collar."
Chen Jiayou: "...why don't you take a break, Miss Xie?"
Xie Zaozao tried to help at first, but later realized that she was a complete burden, so she just sat aside and drank tea.

After Fu Yanzhi asked Shuyue to deliver the cloth and cotton, he specifically asked Shuyue: "Did she say anything?"
Shuyue said: "Miss Xie didn't say anything and just took the cloth and cotton."
Fu Yanzhi nodded: "Okay."
I don't know how many days she can do this.
"Don't assign her any work these days. Transfer someone else to do the odd jobs."
Shuyue agreed.
By the afternoon, Fu Yanzhi could no longer sit still.
Is the dress ready?
Since she can fly so fast, she should be able to make clothes quickly as well.
Thinking of this, he stood up and walked towards Xie Zaozao's room. He pushed the door open and froze.
Lin Shu sat on the edge of the bed, playing with little Xingsu with a rattle. Chen Jiayou was cutting and trimming the fabric on the table with scissors. Xie Zaozao was sitting between the two men, drinking tea and eating snacks.
Fu Yanzhi: ...
What a harmonious picture between wife and concubine.
What the hell is this woman doing?!
Seeing Fu Yanzhi come in, several people stood up and saluted Fu Yanzhi: "Sir."
Fu Yanzhi stood there with a cold face and said nothing. Xie Zaozao saw him staring at her, so she gave up the snack in her hand and said, "Sir, would you like some?"
Fu Yanzhi didn't eat, nor did he speak. He just sat there and looked coldly at the two men in the room. Chen Jiayou was the first one who couldn't stand it. He said, "I'll come again in the evening," and turned around and slipped away.
Lin Shu was about to leave with the child in his arms, but the child clung to him and refused to let go. He couldn't just take the child away, so he had to stand there.
Xie Zaozao ignored Fu Yanzhi, walked over, picked up the child, touched the child's head, and the temperature seemed to have dropped a little.
Fu Yanzhi also noticed that something was wrong with the child at this time. Although he was too angry to speak, he still stood up and walked to Xiao Xingsu.
The little guy's usually cute face is now pink, his eyes are watery, and his fever is still a little abnormal.
Are you sick?
Fu Yanzhi reached out to hug him, but Xiao Xingsu refused to let him hold her. She stayed on Xie Zaozao and refused to get up, glaring at Fu Yanzhi.
Fu Yanzhi tried several times but failed, and realized that he needed some means to make the little guy want to be held by him voluntarily.
He saw the rattle beside the bed, picked it up, and turned it gently in his hand.
"Boom, boom, boom."
Boring.
But little Xingsu liked it. When she saw Fu Yanzhi holding a rattle in his hand, she finally reluctantly let him hold her.
Fu Yanzhi held little Xingsu in his arms, turned the rattle a few times, and then stuffed the rattle back to Xingsu with a dull look.
"Daddy will make you something more interesting tomorrow."
Little Xingsu hit his nose with the rattle, and after that he waved the rattle in his hand, as if to say, "I'm not afraid of you, so I'll hit you."
Fu Yanzhi couldn't help laughing and touched the child's head, and the temperature dropped a little.
After checking Xiao Xingsu, Fu Yanzhi was sure that there was nothing wrong with the child, so he hurried away with the rattle.
In the evening he took back the rattle, which had strange spells painted on it and two silver bells hanging from it.
"Come on, Xingsu, give it a try."
The little star flickered, and the sound of ringing jingle sounded.
He liked it very much, and his chubby hands kept waving, and the bell kept ringing.
But every time the bell rang, a little demon would appear on the ground and be easily dealt with by Fu Yanzhi.
"The Spirit Gathering Drum is specially used to gather those very weak demons. You can use it to exorcise demons when you have nothing to do."
Little Xingsu, who hadn't even grown any teeth yet, opened his mouth and smiled, a string of saliva falling from his mouth. He shook his hands vigorously a few times, but was bitten on the nose by an insect demon that fell from the sky.
Little Xingsu burst into tears.
Fu Yanzhi slapped the insect demon to death and wiped out all the little demons in the room.
That night, everyone in the Fu Family School was sent out to search the mountains and plains for the little demons and wiped them out completely.
"What's wrong, sir? Why does he suddenly want us to get rid of this monster?"
"You don't know, I heard that the master's illegitimate son had his nose bitten by a little demon, and the master was heartbroken!"
"What illegitimate child?"
"It's the child Xie Zaozao gave birth to. It's said that the child wasn't her late husband's at all, but was secretly born to Xie Zaozao and her husband!"
"How else could he be spoiled like that?"
So, the rumors that were popular in the big kitchen became popular again. The master and Mr. Fu almost fought over the maid. Some said that the master was so vigorous that he made the maid sick, and some said that the maid would be able to fly after giving birth.
In short, all the rumors flying around were heard by Yun Yuxiao's mystic, who hurried over to report them.
