Shi Meiling sat up abruptly from the kang (a heated brick bed) and nudged her sleeping husband beside her.
"Tan Xiao, get up and look, I think I hear Tian Lifang calling me!"
An Tanxiao turned over groggily, still wanting to continue sleeping.
"You must have misheard me. How could Tian Lifang be calling you now!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than shouts rang out from outside.
"Sister, are you awake? Something's happened to Shizhao!"
Shi Meiling was now fully awake. She quickly put on her coat and went outside to open the door.
"What happened? What's wrong with Shizhao?"
Tian Lifang was completely different from the one in the morning. Her hair was disheveled and she was covered in mud, probably because she had tripped and fallen while running too fast.
"Shizhao suddenly had another attack last night, and now even I can't calm him down in front of him!"
I was thinking that maybe you and Qingbai could work out. Sister, why don't you and Qingbai come with me to our house to see Shizhao?
"Okay, I'll go get the third brother, we'll go back with you and take a look!"
Shi Meiling knocked on the door of the third son's room.
An Qingbai was already awake. He heard his aunt call him a second time and quickly opened the door.
"Mother, has something happened to Uncle?"
"Yes, your uncle has had another attack. Let's go with him to see him!"
"Okay, Mother, you go and tell Father, and I'll go tell Zhimeng. I'm afraid we won't be able to come back tomorrow!"
"Okay, hurry up and come back. This whole thing has been a hassle, and now you're going to wake Zhimeng up in the middle of the night!"
An Qingbai agreed and quickly ran out the back door.
Zhuang Zhimeng was sleeping soundly when Maoqiu and Maotuan chirped softly.
"Woof woof!"
Zhuang Zhimeng sat up abruptly, glaring at them.
"Stop yelling! What are you yelling about in the middle of the night?"
"Zhizhi, it's me!"
Upon hearing Qingbai's voice, Zhuang Zhimeng immediately stood up.
"What's wrong, Qingbai? What happened?"
"My uncle has had another attack. My mother and I are going to see him. I came to let you know because I'm afraid we might not be able to come back tomorrow!"
"How did it suddenly become so serious?"
"I don't know either!"
Zhuang Zhimeng took out a sedative injection from the warehouse and handed it to An Qingbai.
"This is a tranquilizer. If all else fails, you can take this opportunity to give your uncle an injection!"
An Qingbai nodded.
"Okay, I got it! You can go back to sleep now, I'm leaving!"
Zhuang Zhimeng thought there might be pills in the warehouse and called out to An Qingbai.
"Brother Qingbai, wait a minute!"
An Qingbai turned around and looked over.
Zhuang Zhimeng quickly browsed the warehouse screen and finally found the pill she had drawn before.
"This medicine can relieve Uncle's manic symptoms. Qingbai, find a chance to feed it to Uncle. There's only one pill left, so give him this one first!"
This one pill won't cure his symptoms completely. He needs to take four more to fully recover, which I'll have to wait until I get another one!
An Qingbai was so moved that he hugged Zhuang Zhimeng tightly.
"Thank you, Zhizhi. I thank you on behalf of your uncle!"
Zhuang Zhimeng hugged him and patted his back.
"Alright, hurry up and go, your auntie must be getting impatient!"
It wasn't that Shi Meiling was anxious; it was that Tian Lifang was getting impatient and kept asking her sister-in-law.
"Sis, when are we leaving?"
Just as Shi Meiling was about to say something to her, An Qingbai quickly ran back.
He pushed his bicycle and picked up his mother.
"Mother, come, I'll take you!"
He greeted Tian Lifang as he walked to the door.
"Aunt, my mother and I will go to your house first. I can't take you with me. You can't sit on the front beam, can you? Please walk back!"
Tian Lifang wanted to object, but An Qingbai had already ridden away with his mother.
This infuriated Tian Lifang, but thinking of her husband, she quickly rushed home.
An Qingbai rode with his mother all the way to Shi Shizhao's house.
The house is a complete mess now; everything that could be broken is smashed to pieces.
As soon as Shi Meiling entered the room, she saw Shi Shizhao holding a stool and about to throw it at her head, so she quickly called for her younger brother.
"Shizhao!"
Shi Shizhao regained consciousness for a moment upon hearing his sister's voice.
An Qingbai also quickly called out to him.
"uncle!"
Shi Shizhao calmed down.
He threw the stool he was holding to the side.
Then he stared blankly at the mother and son.
An Qingbai quickly stepped forward, took out the sedative that Zhizhi had given him, and gave his uncle an injection.
Shi Meiling saw this and quickly asked.
"Third brother, what did you put on your uncle's head?"
An Qingbai immediately offered an explanation.
"I gave my uncle something to calm him down, otherwise he might hurt himself!"
"Mom, don't worry, I would never harm Uncle!"
Seeing that Shi Shizhao had calmed down and was no longer so agitated, An Qingbai took out the pills and coaxed him to take them.
"Uncle, eat this candy, and you won't feel bad anymore!"
Shi Shizhao stared blankly at the "candy" in An Qingbai's hand, then suddenly snatched it and stuffed it into his mouth.
Before Shi Meiling could stop her, she turned around and patted An Qingbai on the back.
What did you feed your uncle this time?
An Qingbai leaned close to Shi Meiling's ear and whispered something to his mother.
"This medicine was given to me by Zhimeng. It's to relieve my uncle's symptoms, that's why I gave it to him. Look, my uncle is already asleep!"
Shi Meiling turned around and saw that it was indeed true.
"The medicine Zhimeng gave you really works!"
Alright, let's make do at your uncle's place for the night!
"When your aunt comes back in a bit, ask her what happened. Why did your uncle suddenly become like this?"
