Chapter 185 Going Home, Sick
The person who came was Yuanyuan. As soon as he hugged Chaochao, he sighed and said aggrievedly, "Sister, you are so lucky. You don't have to go to school and can go out and play. Unlike me, I still have to study and take exams. My tender shoulders can't bear it. I am so tired."
Jian Yunsang He Nanzhou, "..." Why do you feel about Cha Cha?
Although Chaochao wanted to study very much, she always knew that studying was hard, especially during exams. If she didn't do well on the exams, she would feel very stressed.
Therefore, she did not doubt Yuanyuan's words at all, and said with great concern, "Brother Yuanyuan, have you had a hard time these days?"
"Yes." Yuanyuan nodded immediately.
This time, even Song Zhen, who came out to greet him, couldn't stand it anymore. "Yuanyuan, straighten your tongue before you speak."
Yuanyuan glanced at his grandmother with resentment, "Where am I bent?"
The three adults present said, "..." Is this really their naughty child?
Chao Chao said, "Brother, if your shoulder hurts, let me massage it for you. I also brought you a lot of oranges, which I will peel for you later."
"Sister, you are so nice. Come on, let's go in and ignore them."
The brother and sister walked into the living room hand in hand. Chaochao clenched his fists to help him tap his shoulders, while Yuanyuan ate an orange with his eyes squinted and enjoyed it.
Song Zhen pointed at him and said, "Chao Chao must be very tired after flying back, but you still let her take care of you. Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to sleep in the middle of the night because of your guilty conscience?"
The moment Yuanyuan took a bite of the orange, he immediately felt that it was no longer sweet. Yes, this did not seem to be a good thing.
"Then sister, let me help you... A-choo..." Before he could finish his words, he sneezed loudly.
Chao Chao asked worriedly, "Brother, have you caught a cold?"
"No, it should be someone who misses me. Really, it's just the holiday and my little brothers already miss me. My charm is a bit too great and there's nothing I can do about it. I... sniff..." As he spoke, he subconsciously began to sniff.
Song Zhen frowned, "You're not really catching a cold, are you?"
"How is that possible? I'm in good health. Last time I jumped into the swimming pool and soaked in the cold water for half a day and I was fine."
Song Zhen thought he was being stubborn, and sure enough, he started to feel uncomfortable with a stuffy nose in the afternoon, spoke in a muffled voice, and was fed cold medicine with a sad face. He was also forbidden to contact Chao Chao.
That would have been fine, but in the evening, Yuanyuan developed a high fever.
The family doctor came to see him and thought that he had probably been infected by someone at school. In addition, he had taken his final exams two days before and was highly focused. He relaxed after the exams and fell ill.
Chaochao was very worried, but everyone told her not to go to the third floor and not to contact Yuanyuan. She could only comfort her brother over the phone and tell him to go to bed early.
I originally thought Chaochao was fine, but the next morning, she also had a fever and was in a daze.
I took the temperature and it was 38.5 degrees.
The family doctor came again and made the same diagnosis as Yuanyuan, saying that it would be better for her to rest at home. Chaochao was still conscious, but her nose was not very airy. I gave her some medicine and used physical cooling.
Chaochao felt fine, she didn't even feel much discomfort.
She also comforted Jian Yunsang, "Mom, I'm fine. I now know that a cold and fever are not serious illnesses. As long as I take the medicine and have a good rest, I will be well soon."
And she was feeling comfortable now, more comfortable than ever.
When she was sick in Shangliu Village, she had to go hungry, brave the cold wind, and even work. Whether she could hold on was up to fate. When she was feeling particularly uncomfortable, she would even think about dying.
But now it's different. Apart from a stuffy nose and confusion, everything else is fine. Her parents are around to take care of her. She has hot water to drink and a blanket to cover herself. She doesn't need to worry about anything. She also knows that colds and fevers are not serious illnesses, so she is not worried at all.
Looking at the well-behaved and sensible little girl, Jian Yunsang felt sad.
She touched Chao Chao's head, put the fever-reducing patch away, and said with a smile, "Well, we'll be well again soon."
But after Chao Chao fell asleep and closed the door, he couldn't help but sigh and said to He Nanzhou, "In fact, I have been worried since she came back. She suffered so much in Shangliu Village and was severely malnourished. After she came back and recognized us, her life was completely different from before. The different temperature of the environment, the big mood swings, and the sudden change in diet, not to mention children, even adults' body functions may become seriously ill due to not adapting. But Chao Chao has always been very energetic, and her temperament has gradually become cheerful, I thought..."
He Nanzhou hugged her shoulders and said, "It's okay. Chao Chao will be well again soon under our care."
The atmosphere in the He family inevitably became depressed because the two children caught colds and fevers one after another.
The Da Qi people under the sky were also caught off guard.
Especially the common people, who were stunned by the actions of Jian Yunsang and others.
They didn't quite understand. "She's caught a cold and has a high fever. Instead of covering her with a blanket to help her sweat, you opened the window. Isn't that foolish?"
"That's right, this cold is even more serious."
For most of the people in Daqi, if they caught a cold, they had no money or need to go to the clinic to see a doctor. Most of them just followed the old prescriptions and covered themselves up to force out sweat.
But Jian Yunsang and the others’ approach was completely different.
But inexplicably, they would follow Tianmu's instructions.
Especially for those who have caught a cold and have a high fever, they learned from Jian Yunsang and others to wipe the patients' armpits, neck, and groin with warm water. Later they found that it was really useful.
Most of the doctors knew the principle behind this. Dean Zhan said with great satisfaction, "It's good this way. Many of the people in Daqi who are in financial difficulties are unwilling to see a doctor. Some even do things recklessly, and their originally mild illnesses become increasingly serious. Now that they have Tianmu as a reference, they can learn from it, which is more effective than our earnest persuasion. But they will have to suffer every day."
Lin Lan and others were also very uneasy. When they saw Chao Chao was sick, they also frowned deeply.
Now they have arrived in the capital. They were originally feeling a little nervous, but now they can no longer care about it.
They got off the boat the day before yesterday, then took a horse carriage for a day, and arrived at the outskirts of Beijing last night. Because it was too late, the city gates were already closed, so they could only enter the city this morning.
At that time, Chao Chao had not yet woken up and the sky had not yet risen, but Lin Lan and his group had already entered the city facing the rising sun.
The people from Shangliu Village have basically never traveled far.
This was the first time that he not only went out, but also came directly to the capital city thousands of miles away, and was even about to meet the emperor.
