Having diarrhea is not a big deal, but having a fever that leads to convulsions is a big deal.

Liu Xiaohua was so frightened that her legs went limp. If she hadn't been a strong mother, she wouldn't have been able to make it here.

She hated Jiang Xi because she insisted on marrying Pei Hejun even though Pei Hejun had been like this. She had never been so enthusiastic about the Pei family and Pei Hejun before.

She didn't believe it at all if she was told it wasn't for the pension.

Liu Xiaohua has been thinking about the money since her brother-in-law got into trouble. Now none of the money will come to her family. How can she not be angry?

For this reason, she, her husband and the old family all wanted to drive the man away, but unfortunately they failed.

And now, she was just glad that the Pei family had Jiang Xi.

"Jiang Xi, come out quickly, my son has a fever!" Liu Xiaohua shouted anxiously.

Even though she heard what was happening inside, she felt every minute and every second when her son was in trouble was torture.

Jiang Xi did not delay. As a doctor with a kind heart, she could not just leave it alone, otherwise she would not have said that on purpose at noon. At this moment, there was a sudden noise at the door. She woke up immediately and quickly put on her shoes and got out of bed.

As soon as I opened the door, I ran into Pei's parents who came out in a hurry.

"I'll go open the door first." Pei's mother rushed over first.

Jiang Xi followed behind. When the courtyard door opened, Liu Xiaohua rushed over with her son in her arms without any guidance. The moment she saw her, she seemed to see the light. She quickly brought her son to her and said very quickly: "Hurry and have a look. He suddenly has a fever and is twitching! Please..."

Father Pei found a flashlight and shone it on: "Come over here and let Xiaoxi see it. Don't be afraid."

It turned out that Liu Xiaohua was too excited, and she was really tired after running so far. Her legs went weak and she almost fell to her knees. Although she stabilized herself, her son fell out.

Fortunately, Pei Deyi, who came behind, caught him and said, "I'll hold him."

After holding his son tightly, Pei Deyi's panicked expression turned into a little awkward. He glanced at his father and his third brother's wife, and lowered his head guiltily. Who could have thought that he had ignored Jiang Xiai before, and even refused to lend his parents a cart out of spite, but now he came to ask for help.

Jiang Xi didn't pay attention to his reaction. She went up to him and touched his chubby forehead first, then checked his overall condition. She guessed what happened. His lips were severely chapped, his body was hot, and he was still shivering even wrapped in the quilt.

It's because the enteritis was not treated and it got worse.

Children always like to suck their fingers. The living environment of children in rural areas is not so clean, especially at this time, most of them think that they will not get sick if they eat unclean food.

But the fact is that if it is not clean, it is still easy to get sick if you eat it.

Children have weak resistance and if they have gastrointestinal problems and cannot adjust in time, it will cause a series of complications.

"Say something! Jiang Xi, please save him quickly. I should have listened to you this afternoon. It's my fault..." Seeing that she just checked herself without saying anything, Liu Xiaohua became even more frightened and was about to cry.

Pei's parents were also very nervous, but they didn't dare to disturb them and just watched.

Jiang Xi said quickly, "It's nothing serious. You take him to mom and dad's room and let him lie down. I'll go get the medicine. Mom, you boil the medicine. I'll give Fengshou two injections to reduce his fever later."

"Okay!" Liu Xiaohua nodded repeatedly. She had already lost her mind, but she took Jiang Xi's words as an imperial decree. She pushed her husband over and looked at her expectantly.

Pei Deyi was also a little undecided, but seeing Jiang Xi so calm, he subconsciously followed her instructions and placed his son, who was burned to unconsciousness, on his parents' bed.

Jiang Xi did not disappoint the two of them. She quickly went to get the medicine, handed it to Pei's mother, and then took out the acupuncture needles she had just brought back this afternoon.

Acupuncture is not a disposable item these days, so it must be properly disinfected.

Jiang Xi lit the candles and disinfected them with high temperature. Then, he took the cotton balls soaked in alcohol that he had just bought from the town this afternoon, lifted the quilt of Feng Shou, revealing the thin little body under the quilt, and disinfected the several acupuncture points on his body where the needles were to be inserted one by one.

After doing this, the high-temperature sterilized needle also cooled down.

She held the needle, ready to strike.

Liu Xiaohua subconsciously held her breath: "Hey, be careful..."

Such a long needle looks scary.

Her mind was blank just now and she did everything as she was told, but in reality, she not only rejected but also somewhat distrusted this sister-in-law, and she felt a little regretful for a moment.

My son will surely be in terrible pain after this injection.

She wanted to say something, but was bumped by Pei Deyi and swallowed it back.

Forget it, don't disturb her. If you insert the needle in the wrong place, you'll be in trouble.

Mr. Pei's hands began to tremble as he lit the flashlight. His eyes were red and he felt sorry for his grandson who had to suffer so much.

"Don't worry, the needle is thin and it's inserted into the acupuncture point. It's okay." Jiang Xi knew they were worried and explained. Then she found that the flashlight was shaking, so she reminded them, "Dad, don't shake it."

Father Pei calmed down and swallowed his saliva: "Okay, don't shake."

Even the two children, Jiang Ermei and Jiang Sanmei, were leaning against the door and looking in with horror. Such a long needle was scarier than a spanking needle!

Only Jiang Xi had a calm expression. Under the light of the flashlight, the light and dark on her cheeks were distinct, revealing a bit of coldness. Her almond-shaped eyes were fixed on the lush knuckles. After seeing the position clearly, she exerted force on her wrist, and the thin needle suddenly went in several centimeters and sank into the flesh.

She twisted the needle around, going deeper.

Then she gave the second injection at the Fengchi point at the back of the head, a location that made everyone gasp.

Liu Xiaohua's eyes widened and she kept taking a deep breath. She was sweating from anxiety and wanted to remind him something, but she didn't dare to.

Pei's father and his son Pei Deyi were so focused that they dared not move. Their legs felt weak. Pei's father could not help but stretch out his hand to ask his son for support, but then he thought of what his son had done to him in the afternoon. He withdrew his hand halfway, held his old waist and stood firmly.

Unexpectedly, Pei Deyi also reached out to support him.

The father and son looked at each other, and Pei's father had a cold expression.

Pei Deyi was confused and asked blankly: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with your waist?"

Pei's father shook off his hand, snorted coldly, and didn't answer. Pei's mother took the time to see this second son and got angry. She scolded: "It's all because of you, a piece of shit. You didn't even lend your father a cart. He hurt his waist all the way to move the door back! You still have the nerve to ask what happened?"

Pei Deyi: “!”

His face flushed red, and he looked at his father and then at his mother, feeling so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do. He refused to lend the cart out of spite, hoping to make his father give in. He didn't take it seriously afterwards, but who knew that it would actually cause trouble?

Then I thought about how I was so tough in the afternoon, but now I come to ask for help.

Pei Deyi suddenly felt that he had difficulty breathing and felt uncomfortable all over.

Pei's mother sneered, but her expression improved a little. If her son didn't take it seriously, she would really think he was an ungrateful person. But she still had some care, just not that much.

She had already seen this clearly a long time ago, and felt a little disappointed, but not sad.

In the end, we've split up and are no longer a family.

After inserting two needles, Jiang Xi found the feel for it, and then she inserted the third and fourth needles, and finally a total of six needles. As she was busy, the child, who had just been shivering from the high fever, stopped trembling unconsciously and his breathing became much steadier.

The flushed cheeks have cooled down a little.

At the end, when Jiang Xi stopped taking the needle, there seemed to be a silent breathing sound in the room.

Jiang Sanmei blinked her eyes, licked her lips with some satisfaction, and wanted to ask her elder sister why she didn't continue tying the knot?

"Wait half an hour. When mother's medicine is almost ready, you can remove the needle. Just keep an eye on the time." Jiang Xi reminded.

She spoke, breaking the silence in the room. Liu Xiaohua nodded vigorously: "Okay."

She ran out and looked at the clock in the living room.

Pei Hejun bought the clock two years ago. She wanted to take it away, but Xu Cui also wanted it. The two sides had a big fight, and Pei's parents were so angry that neither of them gave it to anyone, so the clock was kept.

At this moment, the bell rang exactly on the hour, "Dong Dong Dong", and it struck twelve times.

Jiang Xi yawned sleepily, and when he saw his two younger sisters, he immediately urged them, "What are you looking at? Go to bed!"

Jiang Ermei was startled and quickly returned to the house.

Jiang Sanmei's eyes sparkled: "Sister, your needlework looks amazing, can I learn from you?"

The needle felt especially smooth as Jiang Xi inserted it again and again. Although she was afraid, she was more yearning for it. She couldn't describe the feeling, but her elder sister's appearance at that time shocked her little heart.

Jiang Xi was surprised: "Are you sure? This is very tiring."

Jiang Sanmei patted her chest and said, "I'm not afraid of being tired!"

Jiang Xi laughed: "Okay, I'll teach you, as long as you want to learn."

Jiang Sanmei chuckled and went back to her room happily. Then she heard the two little girls talking secretly.

Jiang Xi also smiled, and when she got up and went out, she saw Liu Xiaohua still in a daze. She reminded her, "Sister-in-law, call me when the time comes. I'll take a nap first."

But as soon as she spoke, Liu Xiaohua seemed to be frightened and quickly took two steps back, moving a little further away from her. After a few seconds, she realized what she had said and nodded quickly: "Okay, I understand, you, you go and have a rest."

Jiang Xi: “?”

She gave Liu Xiaohua a strange look and went into the house.

Liu Xiaohua immediately exhaled secretly and patted her chest nervously. Then she heard her husband running out, wiping the sweat off his face and whispering, "She went in?"

Liu Xiaohua nodded silently.

Pei Deyi also relaxed a lot, muttering: "Do you feel that this third sister-in-law is quite powerful? The needle was so long, but she stabbed it into Feng's head without blinking. My legs almost went limp at that time, I was afraid that she had stabbed the wrong place... Bah! That's right..."

Liu Xiaohua smiled, nodded, and whispered, "I'm a little afraid of her."

That's why I instinctively stayed away when Jiang Xi approached.

The couple looked at each other and both looked embarrassed.

It's not that they are timid.

It's really terrible.

Especially when the one stabbed was their son.

If I stab them... Liu Xiaohua shuddered, and suddenly felt that she was a bit brave to deliberately mention Pei Hejun to poke Jiang Xi in pain this afternoon.

Jiang Xi didn't know that her acupuncture could directly calm down Pei Deyi and his wife, who had previously disliked her.

She was extremely sleepy.

She was woken up from a sound sleep. After being busy for a long time, it was easy for her to fall asleep again. When she returned to the room, she turned Pei Hejun over so that he faced her sideways. She did not notice that his eyes were open again and fell asleep directly.

After being woken up half an hour later, Jiang Xi yawned and went out to remove the needle.

The needles were removed and Pei's mother's medicine was ready.

Jiang Xi carefully sterilized the needle and put it back into the needle bag, and instructed: "After he drinks the medicine, you give him a hot bath, and then check his temperature after a while. If the temperature rises again, call me again. Don't let him eat tomorrow morning, and make sure to wash your hands frequently."

Pei Deyi and Liu Xiaohua nodded repeatedly: "Okay, we'll watch."

Liu Xiaohua looked at her, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

Jiang Xi asked: "What else?"

Liu Xiaohua was nervous and shook her head quickly: "It's okay, it's okay."

Jiang Xi glanced at Pei's parents again, and seeing that they were very worried about their grandson Fengshou, he didn't say much and went back to the room first. After all, they were a family, and they would definitely discuss it later.

As soon as she left, Liu Xiaohua touched the corner of his rotten mouth.

Why.

If she had known Jiang Xi was so powerful, she should not have offended this man.

The rotten spot on her mouth corner had not been completely cured after seeing a doctor before. I wonder if Jiang Xi can cure it? Even if she had offended him, she was too embarrassed to speak up. After all, Jiang Xi was different from her in-laws.

Jiang Xi didn't notice Liu Xiaohua's reaction. She went back to the room, wiped the sweat off her face, and then went straight to the bed.

It was still quite hot at night in mid-June.

Unfortunately there is no electric fan.

Jiang Xi took a palm-leaf fan and fanned himself drowsily for a while, then fanned the "Sleeping Beauty" beside him for a while to prevent him from sweating and having skin problems.

As she fanned herself, she fell asleep again.

The fan naturally fell down as well.

The sleeping man beside me wrinkled his brows imperceptibly, as if he was a normal person who woke up in the middle of the night because he felt hot, but soon found that there was no wind, so he gave up, relaxed his brows again, and fell into a deep sleep.

No one disturbed her that night.

The next day, when Jiang Xi woke up, Liu Xiaohua was still there. When she saw her, she stood up from her father's room, fanning him, and said politely, "Old Third Wife, you're awake. Breakfast is in the kitchen. I'll bring it to you."

Jiang Xi looked at her strangely but didn't say anything.

Jiang Ermei came over with a plate and said, "Big sister, go wash your face quickly. This is what your aunt left for you. She and your uncle went to buy a cart."

Liu Xiaohua smacked her lips embarrassedly.

Okay, even my diligence couldn’t catch up.

"Okay." Jiang Xi smiled at her sister and took the breakfast.

Today's breakfast is steamed buns. I don't know when Pei's mother got up to make them. They are very fluffy. She can't help but speed up while brushing her teeth and washing her face, wanting to eat the buns as soon as possible.

Pei's mother's cooking skills are really good. Give her the ingredients and everything she makes will taste delicious. The meat filling for these buns is also very well seasoned.

She ate most of it in one bite.

Liu Xiaohua watched from the side, feeling extremely jealous. For a breakfast, there was no sweet potato or potato, but only four big meat buns. This treatment was too good to be true.

Of course, these are her parents-in-law. She also took advantage of them this morning, but only one.

Her parents-in-law were afraid that she would think too much, so they said that Jiang Xi had bought the meat with her own money.

Although the money still belongs to Pei Hejun.

But this time she was not as overbearing as before and did not treat Pei Hejun's money as her own. Apart from anything else, what Jiang Xi said yesterday at noon, although unpleasant, was also true. She was angry that the man was incompetent, but if she really had to calculate, she also vaguely knew which family was taking advantage.

In addition, given the current situation, she dared not offend Jiang Xi again, as her son was still in her hands.

Speaking of her son, Liu Xiaohua came up eagerly: "Sister-in-law, my son Fengshou didn't have a fever last night. He was more energetic this morning than yesterday, but he's hungry. What do you think he can eat?"

When her son first had diarrhea two days ago, she actually took him to the town to see a doctor.

He took medicine and got better that day, but he ate the pork elbow she bought from town that night and the condition started again. So last night Jiang Xi told him not to eat anything, and she listened. Even though her son made a fuss about eating, she didn't give him anything, but she felt bad.

Because of this illness, my son lost weight visibly.

Jiang Xi thought for a moment and said, "Make him some egg custard mixed with porridge. He can't eat too much, just a small bowl."

"Okay." Liu Xiaohua nodded excitedly and was about to leave.

Jiang Xi stopped her and said, "The medical fee hasn't been paid yet."

Liu Xiaohua was stunned. She had never expected that she would have to pay for the medical treatment: "Medical fees? With the relationship between our two families..."

Jiang Xi said calmly, "You never remember what your parents gave you. You always worry about losing out. In this case, we should be brothers and settle accounts clearly, so that you won't feel that you lost out if something happens in the future. You have to give me RMB 3.2 for the herbs you bought yesterday and in the future. For the medical fee, you can give me 10 eggs, or something else."

Although Liu Xiaohua seemed to be a bit friendly, Jiang Xi didn't like the couple. Even though people were poor these days and had to haggle over every little thing, one could still tell a person's character at times. They weren't bad people, but they were definitely not kind.

At this time, he was being nice to her, probably because of the desire for profit. How could a person not get sick if he ate all kinds of food? If he made friends with a doctor who had good medical skills, he would get a lot of conveniences, so he did this.

But Jiang Xi didn't want to get used to them, and had no feelings for them, so he just let it go. He even took a little more because they made Pei's father sprain his back yesterday afternoon because of their anger.

Liu Xiaohua's face turned red. She knew that she was mocking what she did yesterday. She didn't object anymore, but she felt sorry for the money.

She whispered, "Then I'll go home and get it."

"Go ahead." Jiang Xi waved his hand and let her go.

Liu Xiaohua took two steps, turned back, and said hesitantly, "You said yesterday that the corner of my mouth can be cured. Is that true?"

"Of course it's true." Jiang Xi said with a smile: "Do you want me to treat you?"

"Is it expensive?" Liu Xiaohua asked hesitantly.

Knowing she had to pay, she felt reluctant.

Jiang Xi thought for a moment and said, "It's not expensive, it's not very serious, and the medicine used is relatively cheap, one dollar and fifty cents is enough."

In fact, it is still a bit expensive, but Liu Xiaohua was bothered by this question for a long time. Without reaching the bottom line, she finally nodded: "Then I will treat it!"

Although Pei Deyi is useless, the family's money is still in her hands.

Jiang Xi immediately stuffed the remaining bun into his mouth, washed his hands, and then carefully looked at her face. He felt her pulse, confirmed her illness, and prescribed three doses of medicine for her: "Take it for three days and you'll be fine."

Liu Xiaohua smiled, but soon her mouth corners were hurt. She suppressed her smile and quickly left with the three prescriptions.

It's finally being cured.

She was still worried. This place had been rotten for a long time. She was very worried about having it on her face. Not only was it painful, but it was also ugly. Her man didn't even want to look at her anymore.

It's this money. It's said to be cheap, but it's actually quite expensive.

The total cost for her and her son was 4.7 yuan, plus eggs, it really hurt. Fortunately, she still had some eggs at home. She secretly raised three hens in the room, and she also had two chickens at home, so she had no shortage of eggs.

Oh, I really regret it.

If she had known Jiang Xi was so powerful, she shouldn't have made such a fuss with her. Otherwise, why would she need so much money?

As soon as she got the things, Liu Xiaohua went to her mother-in-law's house.

Before I even left the house, Xu Cui suddenly ran over and asked with a sly smile, "Where have you been? I just came to look for you but you weren't there."

"What's wrong?" Liu Xiaohua did not answer directly, but asked back.

Xu Cui just happened to have some gossip to tell her, so she didn't dwell on it. Instead, she said, "A new team doctor has arrived. I just heard from the people in the neighboring village that a clinic is going to be built at the entrance of Zhoujia Village. Aren't those two old guys protecting Jiang Xi? They even spread the word that Jiang Xi is going to be a team doctor. Ugh!"

She proudly told Liu Xiaohua what she knew, confident that she would be as happy as she was. However, when she looked closely, she saw that Liu Xiaohua was frowning and did not look happy at all.

"What's wrong? Are you unhappy? This is a great thing!" Xu Cui said dissatisfiedly.

Liu Xiaohua hesitated and said, "Jiang Xi's marriage to the third brother cannot be changed. After all, we are a family. If she gets better, can't we also benefit from it? Now that she can't be a team doctor, what good will it do us?"

Apart from anything else, she truly experienced the benefits of having a relative who is a doctor.

If it were someone else's family, she would go to their house in the middle of the night and run from Peijia Village to Zhoujia Village, which would take at least ten minutes. Her son would have to wait for such a long time. Plus, there would be a lot of messy personal relationships to deal with after the medical consultation, medical bills, and so on. It was really a lot of things to deal with.

Jiang Xi was different. She didn't have to worry too much about her son as she left him there with her parents-in-law looking after him. She could even have a free meal.

Besides, with Jiang Xi's temper, she really didn't have the courage to do anything.

Xu Cui didn't want to hear this. She glared and said without thinking, "I don't need her! My whole family is in good health, why do we need her? Besides, if there is really any problem, can't we just go to the team doctor? The team doctor is better than Jiang Xi, right?"

Liu Xiaohua choked up, feeling somewhat helpless, but she had thought so before, and it was difficult to change without personal experience, so she didn't say anything: "Okay, do whatever you want."

She walked past Xu Cui and went out.

Xu Cui wondered: "Where are you going?"

"Go to the old couple's place. My son had a fever last night and Jiang Xi took him to see him. He's still there," said Liu Xiaohua.

Xu Cui: “…”

She sneered and said, forget it.

Jiang Xi is useless anyway. We already have a team doctor. What's the point of having her? Who would want to see her for treatment?!

It will be useless if you have no source of income. You two will always know who to rely on when you are old.
