She had seen all of the capitalist sons who had been sent to the countryside for reform and were living terrible lives, and she would never let her younger brother and sister-in-law suffer.
Yu Chuan's illness can't be delayed any longer. The sooner we get there, the better, so the child won't suffer so much.
The thought of her child lying on the deathbed made it impossible for her to eat.
"You guys eat first, I'll go borrow an oxcart. Once we get the oxcart, we can set off, which will save a lot of time. Yu Chuan has a very high fever and has started talking nonsense. I don't want to waste a single second of time."
Li Yaxian stopped her daughter who was walking out. This silly daughter, doesn't she know that there is a lot of food at home today? Why doesn't she eat more nutritious food to make up for it? Her body is so weak that she would fall over if you blew on her. It's heartbreaking to see her like this.
"Today we have turtle soup and chicken to celebrate our family's survival. Eat more to nourish yourself. You look so pale. Why did you borrow an oxcart? Let your dad go and borrow one. Sit down and have a proper meal."
Seeing how thin his daughter had become, Gu Yuanhong knew that life in Phoenix Village must be difficult. In order to get his daughter to eat more, he immediately stood up from his seat.
"You eat something first, Dad will go borrow an oxcart, it will definitely not delay your trip to the county hospital."
Watching Gu Yuanhong's departing figure, Gu Siqing sat down with a restless heart.
She was rummaging through the food in her bowl, her mind preoccupied only with her son. She couldn't taste what was in the bowl, let alone discern its flavor.
Su Ying patted Gu Siqing on the shoulder, telling her to eat in peace. "Don't worry too much. We'll set off as soon as Dad gets back the oxcart."
"But you just came back from the county town, aren't you too tired?"
"It's alright. Human life is of utmost importance. If you're really tired, just sleep for a while on the oxcart. The most important thing is for the child's fever to come down."
In her previous life, Gu Siqing couldn't get over the shadow of her son's death. She collapsed and fainted, and when she woke up the next day, she was mentally impaired.
Bai Jiyuan still had a conscience; he didn't abandon his wife when she became mentally impaired.
She followed Gu Sinian around and often saw him staring blankly at her older sister.
Gu Siqing probably came to the Gu family for help in the same way in her past life, but the Gu family was powerless to help and couldn't get penicillin, which led to the loss of her child and Gu Siqing going insane.
He must have hated his own incompetence in his past life.
Having the chance to change her fate in this life, she will make up for all the regrets Gu Sinian had in his previous life.
I went to the black market alone to find penicillin so that I could use it today to save Bai Yuchuan. Now that the opportunity has come, why not work hard to save a life?
"Don't think too much. There are plenty of good dishes today, eat more to nourish yourself."
"Thank you. Can I bring some for my child? He needs some nourishment after recovering from a serious illness."
Su Ying, who knew a little about medicine, disagreed. "Children's digestive systems are very weak after they get sick, so it's not suitable to give them a lot of nourishing food. It's best to cook some millet porridge for them, which is more suitable for their recovery."
Gu Siqing scratched her head sheepishly, "I thought I needed to take lots of nourishing foods after being sick, but now that you mention it, it really isn't appropriate."
"Don't overthink it. Take advantage of the time you still have to eat something. If Dad borrows the oxcart back later, it will be a waste of time if you haven't finished eating."
Gu Siqing had no appetite at all and immediately stood up. "Why don't I go to the kitchen and cook some millet porridge? Yu Chuan can eat it when we get to the hospital and she wakes up."
"No need for that. People don't have much of an appetite after a high fever. Just drink some warm water. Let's make the millet porridge when we get back."
Gu Siqing was finally able to eat in peace, her eyes and heart were only on her son, and her thoughts were all on him.
She gets flustered at the slightest thing that happens to her child. Will she still be like this when she becomes a mother?
She wouldn't.
Only when you take good care of yourself can you have the strength to take care of others.
Love yourself before you love others.
