Chapter 234 Illness
When Sixteen said this, Liao Lin's heart instantly became nervous.
"I've been keeping the ginger soup and rice porridge, so there shouldn't be any problems."
Having said that, Liao Lin still handed the ginger soup in his hand to Sixteen.
He knew that although Sixteen was not as good as Doctor Xue, he also knew some pharmacology.
"Is it poisonous?" Zhou Yunshu asked, looking at Sixteen's cautious look.
Could it be such a coincidence? They just randomly picked a farmhouse to stay at, so there shouldn't be any problems, right?
Sixteen shook his head and handed the ginger soup in his hand to Zhou Yunshu.
Sixteen carefully checked the remaining bowls, whether it was ginger soup or rice porridge.
Fortunately, his previous worries were unnecessary, and the wind and rain outside were even stronger at this time.
After drinking the ginger soup, Zhou Yunshu listened to the sound of wind and rain outside and said, "If it rains like this all night, will the crops in the fields be soaked?"
Sixteen and Liao Lin didn't say anything. Although they had never grown crops, if the wind and rain continued like this, no one could predict what would happen.
The heavy rain lasted all night. When it stopped the next morning, the ground and the roads were flooded, making it impossible to walk.
The sky was still gloomy, as if it was accumulating rain, waiting to pour out all at once when it could no longer be held back.
Ye Dayou sat in the main room, smoking a pipe, his brows furrowed on his already wrinkled face, as if God had some deep hatred against him.
Zhou Yunshu had drunk a bowl of ginger soup yesterday and was feeling much better now. After eating some cakes that were brought on the carriage, she went to the main hall and looked at Ye Dayou and his eldest son sitting on the side. She asked, "Uncle Ye, how long do you think this rain will stop?"
Ye Dayou put down his pipe and tapped the door twice, saying with a worried look on his face, "I'm afraid I won't be able to stop."
As Ye Dayou finished speaking, raindrops began to fall from the sky again, and Zhou Yunshu's brows also furrowed.
"Ten years ago, we had a similar heavy rain in Dongchuan. It rained intermittently for a month and flooded half of Dongchuan."
"All the food has died, and the stored food has gone moldy, but we have to eat it even if it's moldy. If we don't, we'll die."
Ye Dayou's tone was filled with deep fear. "But yesterday's rain looked even more severe than the one ten years ago."
While Ye Dayou was recalling his experience ten years ago, Zhou Yunshu stood at the door, watching the rain getting heavier without saying a word.
If the old nightmare comes true again, she must rush back to Dongwang Village.
"God doesn't want us to live!"
Zhou Yunshu listened to the sound of Ye Dayou tapping the ground with his pipe and wanted to say something, but couldn't.
There was no weather forecast in that era, and she didn't think she could understand Haizhou's weather better than a local old farmer.
Regardless of whether what Ye Dayou said was true or not, Zhou Yunshu was prepared to treat it as true.
Zhou Yunshu looked at the part of the Ye family's earthen roof that was soaked by rain, and thought that if the rain gradually subsided today, she would have to leave regardless of whether she could leave or not.
However, plans did not change quickly enough, and Zhou Yunshu stayed in the Ye family for another day as the atmosphere became increasingly depressing. The next morning, when the rain was gradually subsiding, she pulled out the horse, harnessed the carriage, and went home.
The road was extremely difficult to walk on after two days of heavy rain. It took Zhou Yunshu nearly five hours to travel a distance that should have taken only two hours, and she only arrived at the entrance of Dongwang Village when it was almost dark.
At this time, the rain got heavier.
Fortunately, when the carriage was about to be scrapped at the entrance of Dongwang Village, Chuqi and Wei Zhong came over.
After finally returning home, although Zhou Yunshu was soaked all over, her heart finally settled down.
No matter what, being able to be with my family all the time is the most reassuring thing.
After returning home, she took a hot bath, drank some ginger soup, and ate a lot of food, but Zhou Yunshu still developed a high fever that night and even vomited out everything she had eaten in the middle of the night.
Zhou Yunshu didn't know how long she had slept. When she regained consciousness, she opened her eyes and saw the light yellow curtains, while the annoying sound of rain was still heard outside.
Zhou Yunshu never thought that one day she would find the sound of rain so annoying. After all, in modern times, her favorite thing was to stay at home on rainy days, watching TV series, eating hot pot and sleeping.
But now, she wished that God would stop the leak.
"You're awake."
Zhou Yunshu turned her head and saw Ji Sheng with a green shadow in front of him.
"How long have I slept?"
"Two days."
Zhou Yunshu wanted to get up, but she felt too weak to stand up, and was finally picked up by Ji Sheng.
After Zhou Yunshu sat up, Ji Sheng reached out and felt the temperature of her forehead, then said to her, "Wait here for a moment. I'll ask Doctor Xue to come and check you out."
Zhou Yunshu nodded. She originally thought that she was in good health and would not get sick.
Well, I overestimated myself.
Fortunately, after two days of coma, Zhou Yunshu recovered a lot of energy. Doctor Xue came over to take Zhou Yunshu's pulse and wrote a new prescription. Zhou Yunshu only needed to rest well.
Fortunately, Zhou Yunshu and Doctor Xue had the foresight to set up a small pharmacy at home in advance. Otherwise, if we really needed any medicine, we would have to run to Dongchuan City in the rain to buy it.
With the current rain, going back and forth is a problem.
Zhou Yunshu was not the only one who fell ill because of the rain. Liao Lin also fell ill, but he recovered after taking a few doses of medicine. Several people in the village came to the Zhou family for medical treatment, and Dr. Xue treated them one by one.
Zhou Yunshu got out of bed on the third day. Although she still had a runny nose, she was in much better health.
She has been trapped in the house these days because of her serious illness. Although Xixi and the others knew she was back, they were restrained and not allowed to come over.
After Zhou Yunshu recovered from her illness and went out, Xixi threw herself into Zhou Yunshu's arms with red eyes.
At that time, Xixi secretly saw Zhou Yunshu lying unconscious in bed with a high fever. Later, she was restrained by the elders in the family and was not allowed to see her mother. Xixi's face became a little sharp with anxiety these days.
"Mom, Xixi, please don't be sick, okay?"
Zhou Yunshu looked at her daughter's concerned face, and felt that her heart, which had been gloomy due to the continuous heavy rain in the past few days, suddenly brightened up a little.
How can there be such a cute baby girl in the world?
From the time they had dinner to the time they went to the front yard, Xixi's eyes never left her mother's body until Liao Quan came forward with an umbrella outside the door and said, "Mr.
"Two carriages arrived outside. They said their surname was Lin and they were looking for the old lady."
Zhou Yunshu waved at Xixi who was heading to class and looked towards the door. "Your surname is Lin. Are you looking for the old lady?"
Liao Quan nodded. He was also surprised that someone would look for the old lady.
Zhou Yunshu said, "I'll go take a look."
Could it be someone from Nanzhou?
