"Mom, how much further?"
Lin Xue stood with her hands on her hips, panting heavily.
I've never felt so exhausted walking even a mile or two.
"We'll be there soon. Why don't you walk slowly for a bit, and I'll put my things down on the ground and then come back to pick you up!"
Although she spoke in a consultative tone, Lin Cuihua quickly walked towards one of the plots of land.
There's a jujube tree growing on the edge of the field. It's not jujube season yet, so there are only tiny green berries scattered on it.
However, since the jujube trees are growing in this kind of place, I guess my family can't eat much of it.
People passing by picked a few and they were all gone.
Lin Cuihua put the things down and quickly walked back to her daughter's side, squatting down to gesture for her to come up.
"It's only a few steps away, I can walk it myself!"
Looking at her mother's not-so-broad back, Lin Xue suddenly felt a lump in her throat.
Even though he was having a hard time himself, he kept taking care of her feelings.
Given your physical condition, staying home to rest is the wisest course of action.
It might have been something that happened around noon, which really frightened her.
I only feel at ease when my daughter is in front of me.
"Hurry up and get on, I still need to weed after I carry you over!"
In the end, Lin Xue couldn't resist Lin Cuihua's insistence. She nestled against her mother's warm back, and a tear rolled down her cheek without her noticing.
After carrying Lin Xue over, Lin Cuihua found a flat spot and laid out a coarse cloth on it, letting her sit on the cloth.
All the food and water we brought were placed next to her.
He glanced at his daughter a few times, still feeling uneasy, before stepping into the cornfield.
Half of the field was clean and free of weeds, while the other half was full of thriving grass.
Lin Xue sat under the jujube tree.
I glanced at my mother pulling weeds at the edge of the field, then at the shade provided by the jujube tree.
He slowly got up and pulled the cloth towards the sun.
She genuinely felt cold, as if she were in a different world from everyone else.
I picked up the kettle and touched it.
The water inside is hot, so you can't change it to spring water.
Even if the hot water cools down, it will take a long time. Who knows when her mother will come over for a drink?
"mom?"
After a while, Lin Cuihua had disappeared into the cornfield.
Lin Xue tried calling out.
"Hey, what's wrong, honey?"
Lin Cuihua never dared to stray too far from the edge of the field, only weeding back and forth in a place relatively close to the edge.
"Are you tired? If you are, come and rest for a while!"
Based on the sound, Lin Xue was able to quickly pinpoint Lin Cuihua's location.
She wasn't sure if her mother, who was squatting in the cornfield, would see what she was doing.
"I'm not tired. If you're hungry, there are cookies; if you're thirsty, you can drink water!"
"The oranges you brought might be a little cold. Why don't you put them in the sun to dry first?"
Having a sickly daughter really makes a mother's heart break.
Moreover, her daughter's illness was somewhat strange. She had taken her to a large hospital for examination, and the doctor said that her daughter had congenital heart disease.
But most people are fine as long as they don't do heavy work or have an attack of the disease.
But her daughter was different from others; besides having a low immune system and being prone to illness, she also had other health issues.
Each illness wasn't too serious, but it was still very bothersome.
My daughter is so old, but she can't do any work, and she can't even live a normal life.
I spend most of my day sleeping, but sometimes I can't sleep for several days in a row, no matter how tired I am.
She doesn't like to eat, and her daughter always says she can't swallow. But when they go to the hospital for a checkup, the doctors say there's nothing wrong with her daughter's throat and stomach.
"oh!"
Hearing her mother's words, Lin Xue silently put the two oranges in the bag out to dry in the sun.
Then he turned around, his back to his own land.
She felt a little dizzy, probably because she was too weak and had been in the sun for too long.
She was clearly cold, but she still felt uncomfortable when the sun was too strong.
This is truly a delicate porcelain doll!
Make sure her mother can't see her, and that there's no one else in front of her.
Lin Xue took out a cup of hot spring water from her spatial storage and drank it down.
A cup of spring water relieved her dizziness.
I discovered it the first time I drank the Lingquan water; whenever I felt unwell, drinking a cup would immediately revive me.
It seems she'll have to rely on the spiritual spring water in her space to prolong her life from now on!
"Huh?"
"Isn't this Cuihua's Xiaoxue? Your mom finally decided to bring you out?"
I sat on the ground for a while; it must have been past 2 p.m. by then.
Villagers gradually arrived at the fields carrying hoes and sickles.
Now is the time for weeding, and most people will choose to work in the fields after noon.
"Uncle, stop teasing me. Look, I've come and haven't been able to help my mom at all."
Lin Xue didn't recognize the old man in front of her, but she still knew how to greet people.
"What's wrong with not being able to work? It's good to talk to your mom!"
“It wasn’t easy for your mother to raise you all by herself, and she also had to take care of all the work in the fields.”
"She gets all her energy just seeing you safe and sound!"
When the uncle saw that Lin Xue had spoken to him, he stopped and chatted with her for a few minutes.
The young girl from Lin Cuihua's family usually doesn't pay much attention to people. Everyone knows that she has a somewhat eccentric personality due to her health condition, so no one bothers to argue with her.
The little girl seemed to be in a good mood today and was willing to chat with everyone.
