Chapter 297 A child with a mother is a treasure
Baozhu told Yin Huaixi in detail what she had done when she went out to inquire, and Yin Huaixi had an idea in his mind.
Everyone is here to protect Wanwan. Killing people doesn't give you a good reputation.
"I understand. Baozhu, you and Anan can continue to prepare the herbs. I'll be here to guard the place."
Yin Huaixi didn't trust anyone at the moment, so he could only look after the child himself to feel at ease.
This fever lasted for more than two hours and only subsided when it was almost dark.
When Jiang Wan regained consciousness, the oil lamp was lit in the room and A Niang was writing something under the lamp.
"Mother..."
She tried to sit up, but her limbs felt weak and her head felt dizzy.
"Wake up! Are you hungry? I've made you a bowl of minced meat porridge in the kitchen."
It would have been better if he didn't say it, because once he said it, Jiang Wan was really hungry.
She didn't eat much when she went out today, and at noon she only had half a bowl of porridge from those criminals, so her stomach has been empty ever since.
Having been hungry for a long time, Jiang Wan's appetite was whetted when she smelled the delicious minced meat porridge, and she ate a big bowl of it cleanly.
Yin Huaixi watched from the side and felt much more relieved.
If you can eat, it means the disease is not serious.
"Is this bowl enough? There are eggs in the kitchen. I'll steam two more for you."
"No, no, I'm full."
Jiang Wan was about to get out of bed to wash the dishes, but before her feet even touched the ground, the dishes were taken away by her mother.
"You're still sick. Just lie down in bed and take the medicine."
sick?
Jiang Wan was stunned for a moment, then she recalled her memories of returning home.
She had a fever! And she was talking nonsense!
Then, then, then my mother must have heard what I said!
Jiang Wan thought about how her mother seemed to know nothing just now, and felt both bitter and sweet in her heart.
A-niang doesn't have any opinion about herself because of the murder.
I was distracted for a moment, and suddenly I felt a warm hand on my forehead.
"I don't have a fever anymore, and my complexion and pupils are normal. I'll drink another bowl of medicine later, and I'll be fine tomorrow."
Jiang Wan just had a fever due to shock, it was not a serious illness. As long as she adjusted herself mentally and took some medicine, she would recover quickly.
Yin Huaixi sat down next to her daughter and squeezed her tightly clenched hands.
Over the past few months, my daughter's hands have become fleshy.
"Wanwan, relax a little. What happened on the island is in the past, so don't think about it anymore. Those people wanted to harm you and the villagers, but you did it to save yourself and the villagers. You are not to blame for this, and I am praising you. If you were not so brave, how many families in the village would have suffered this time? I may never see you again."
Jiang Wan lowered his head and sniffed, leaning against A Niang with his mind somewhat empty.
"I was very brave when I did it, but the calmer I became, the more scared I became. Not only was I afraid of what others would think of me, I was also afraid of myself..."
How did she change from a good socialist young person to a murderous devil who kills people without blinking an eye?
"Mother, you really don't blame me?"
Yin Huaixi hugged her daughter tighter and answered with certainty: "Wanwan, remember, no one in this world is as important as you. Let alone killing five people, even if I kill a hundred, you are still the most precious daughter in my mother's heart."
"By the way, next time you go out, you must bring all the drugs I prepared for you. I'm scared just thinking about it."
Jiang Wan nodded obediently, drank the potion a few moments later, and fell asleep in A Niang's arms.
Perhaps a mother's embrace can naturally soothe a child's soul. In any case, after waking up from a sleep, Jiang Wan felt her mind clear and she no longer felt heavy.
After washing her face with cold water, Jiang Wan felt instantly refreshed and regained her former vitality.
"Cousin~~Anan~~Are you guys up yet?"
Hearing her cousin's voice outside the courtyard gate, Jiang Wan hurried to open the door for her.
"Cousin? Why did you get up so early today?"
"Come and see you!"
Yin Ning pulled Jiang Wan and looked her up and down. Seeing that she was in good spirits, he felt relieved.
"I heard something happened on Coconut Island yesterday, so I wanted to come and ask you about it. But when I came, you were running a fever, and your aunt didn't let me stay to take care of you. She said you weren't seriously ill and would get better soon, so she asked me to come back the next morning."
Yin Ning went home and was worried all night. Fever is not a minor illness. There are so many doctors in Kyoto, but many people still die from fever every year.
Bah! Bah! Bah!
Wrong idea!
Yin Ning felt better after she confirmed that her cousin was full of energy again. Before she left, she suddenly remembered something and turned back to Jiang Wan and said hesitantly, "Cousin, I remember you are somewhat familiar with that Lianqiao, right?"
"Lianqiao? Yes, I know him a little bit. What happened to my cousin?"
Jiang Wan didn't remember her cousin having any contact with Lian Qiao.
"He has a younger sister named Xiaoyu. She recently paid money to come here to learn embroidery. This girl has a good talent for needlework, but she always has other thoughts. She always finds strange reasons to ask me to go to the door, and then I see Lianqiao or Lianyue on the path."
"Why is that?"
Yin Ning shook her head. To be honest, she didn’t quite understand it.
"Cousin, if you see Lianqiao, please tell him to take good care of Xiaoyu. Or find out what she wants to do."
Jiang Wan nodded and took the matter to heart, deciding to go find Lian Qiao to ask about it later.
But before she could go find someone, people came to visit her home one after another.
What to visit?
Of course, it was to visit Jiang Wan.
There were more than a dozen people from the village who went to the island together yesterday. After all, it was Jiang Wan who rescued them, so they should be grateful. Originally, they didn't want to attract too much attention, but Jiang Wan was sick this time, so it was reasonable for them to come and see him.
By the way, I took my thank-you gift seriously.
"Xiao Wan, this chicken just turned one year old. It tastes really good. Please accept it."
"Xiao Wan, these are the eggs my family collected!"
"Xiao Wan, this is the pickled bacon from my family!"
Everyone was more enthusiastic than the other. Jiang Wan refused some but couldn't refuse others. Soon she was piled with gifts, and only the last two were left by her side.
"Xiao Wan, those gifts are from us. The rest are from other people. They are busy today, so let me help pass them on."
Jiang Wan looked at the things in Sister Xiu'e's hand, and somehow he remembered the looks those people on the boat gave him.
Suddenly, I understood.
If you are willing, you can find time no matter how busy you are. They are just afraid, there is nothing much to say.
"Don't worry, Xiao Wan, they won't say a word that they shouldn't. It's just that their hearts can't bear it, so they can't figure it out now."
Jiang Wan nodded seriously and put the things away.
The matter is settled only after receiving the things.
It didn't matter that the aunts were afraid of her and didn't dare to see her. As long as her mother wasn't afraid of her, she didn't care about anything else.
Today's Jiang Wan is no longer yesterday's Jiang Wan!
“Wan Wan!!”
The fearless Jiang Wan suddenly stopped, having an inexplicable bad feeling.
"You actually ate sea jelly secretly! It was cold! You just ate it a little bit!"
It was clearly meant to entertain guests, but he actually ate it!
The angry voice was getting closer and closer. Jiang Wan's scalp tightened and he turned around obediently to go back to receive the training.
Um……
Today's Jiang Wan is probably still the same Jiang Wanwan as yesterday.
