Wiping the dirt off his face, Lin Chaodong suddenly remembered something and asked in a low voice:
How is Da Niu doing?
"The fever has subsided."
Lin Chaobei said with a smile.
Now they don't have to worry about how to explain things to Aunt Liu when they get back.
"oh oh."
Lin Chaodong gave a vague reply, leaned against the door frame again, closed his eyes, and his mind was in turmoil.
In less than two months, he experienced so much in the state capital.
From initially running around searching for a doctor for Liu and Dazhuang, to later listening to Liu's words and wanting to stay in the city to provide a good start for his son's future, he was left without money from his family. When their rented house expired, they were evicted by those people. He was beaten instead of asking for help. Liu was determined to become a wealthy man's wet nurse. Later, only he and Dazhuang were left in the family, and Da Niu could no longer work as a porter to earn money.
After becoming a wet nurse, Liu could not easily leave the mansion. After the family's remaining money was used up, he even considered whether to take a broken bowl out to do business. As a result, his two brothers came to visit him.
This was a rare moment of warmth and human kindness he had experienced since arriving in the city.
So, he missed home.
He wanted to go home, even though he could work himself to the bone farming all year round and not save much money. Even if his son had to deal with dirt and clods of earth every day just like him, his son was a farmer's son, and even if he grew up in the city, it wouldn't change that fact. Besides, he could still study in the countryside, even if the conditions were more difficult.
But how good could their living conditions be in the capital city?
Like him these days, he's not even living as well as an animal. Whenever he runs out of money, if he doesn't want to starve to death, he has no choice but to go out begging with a broken bowl.
In the countryside, even if someone is so poor that they can't afford pants, they don't have to worry about starving to death. As long as they are diligent and capable, the crops in the fields will be harvested in time. They can also dig wild vegetables to eat. Water and firewood are free. No matter how difficult things get, they will have a roof over their heads and won't have to wander around.
And there's his mother too!
But what will happen to Lady Liu if they all go back?
This matter needs to be considered carefully!
"Ooh ooh ooh!"
I don't know whose rooster is crowing on the wall. At this time, the sun hasn't even risen yet, but people in the yard are getting up one after another, some cooking, some going to work.
Lin Chaonan also dozed off for a while. He usually woke up at this time, and today was no exception. He asked Lin Chaodong to take out the grain and cooked a big pot of millet porridge. He also boiled five eggs in the pot.
Da Niu woke up to the aroma of millet porridge.
"Third Master! Fourth Master!"
Da Niu felt a surge of emotion, as if he were seeing his loved ones the moment he opened his eyes, and his eyes welled up with tears.
"Da Niu, you're finally awake! How are you feeling? If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, you must tell me, don't try to tough it out. You almost killed yourself trying to tough it out, you know? If Aunt Liu knew, she would be so worried and heartbroken!"
Lin Chaobei, who was teasing Dazhuang, suddenly jumped to Da Niu's side and unleashed a barrage of attacks.
"Yes, I understand, Fourth Master!"
Da Niu was so moved that his eyes welled up with tears.
He knew that Fourth Master was worried about him, and he was actually quite scared too, but at the time, he really had no choice.
