Help...
In the dream, Zhou Pingping saw a bloody red color in front of her eyes. She opened her mouth to scream, but no sound came out.
The dream was chaotic, and the next second her eyes blurred, and she saw Zhou Anan and Grandma Zhou. She cried and shouted for help.
"Grandma, brother, save me, take me away!"
Zhou Anan and Grandma Zhou were both riding on their horses. Zhou Anan said with a cold face, "I no longer recognize you as my sister. You can fend for yourself."
Grandma Zhou also echoed, "That's right, a disobedient child like her should be left in the bandit's den. Let's go."
"No! I'm obedient. I'll be obedient from now on. Don't leave me. No!"
In reality, Zhou Pingping shook her head helplessly, "Don't abandon me, I was wrong..."
Su Man noticed that something was wrong with her and reached out to touch her forehead.
Sure enough, Zhou Pingping had a fever.
Her body was burning hot, and she seemed to be unconscious, trapped in a nightmare and unable to extricate herself.
Su Man lifted up her trouser legs and saw that her ankles were swollen like steamed buns. It was shocking to see. No one knew how she managed to survive.
Su Man was afraid that her brain was burned, so she tried to wake her up, "Pingping, wake up."
Zhou Pingping seemed unconscious, muttering, "I'm a bad kid, I'm a bad kid..."
Seeing her like this, Su Man felt a little soft-hearted.
She sat beside him and held Zhou Pingping in her arms. Knowing that Zhou Pingping was having a nightmare about a bandit's den, she coaxed him softly, "Okay, don't be afraid. Those are all fake."
With Su Man's comfort, Zhou Pingping's emotions gradually calmed down.
She unconsciously hugged Su Man's arm, "Auntie, Pingping is wrong, Pingping is wrong..."
Her voice was very soft and had a tearful tone.
Su Man felt both distressed and amused. She poked Zhou Pingping on the forehead and said, "If you had been so obedient earlier, you wouldn't have suffered so much."
Perhaps the sense of security Su Man gave Zhou Pingping was too strong, she slowly stopped crying and fell into a deep sleep.
Su Man gently put her down and planned to go to Grandma Zhou to get some herbs.
Grandma Zhou was woken up. She asked sleepily, "Man girl, what are you looking for?"
"Grandma, Pingping has a fever. I want to find some herbs."
"ah?"
When she heard that Zhou Pingping had a fever, Grandma Zhou quickly sat up and said, "The herbs are in the bag. I'll get them."
Seeing that Su Man was only wearing her underwear, Grandma Zhou urged, "Go back to sleep. I'll make the medicine."
"Let's do it together, it will be faster this way."
The fire was ready, and the medicine was boiled quickly.
I thought it would be difficult to feed her the medicine, but unexpectedly, Zhou Pingping woke up on her own after just two spoonfuls.
She opened her sleepy eyes, "Aunt? What's wrong with me..."
"You have a fever, come and take the medicine."
Su Man wanted to feed her more, but Zhou Pingping didn't want to make Su Man tired, so she took the medicine and drank it in one gulp.
"Aunt, I'm fine."
Zhou Pingping's face was flushed and her eyes were blurry, but she was still trying to be strong.
Su Man was helpless, "Pingping, if you feel unwell, you should speak up, otherwise it will be even worse if you fall ill."
Zhou Pingping pursed her lips and said, "I don't want to be a burden."
"You're not a burden."
Su Man touched her head. "We have all seen your changes, but everything is excessive. Neither doing anything nor overdoing anything is a good thing. You are sick now, so you need to rest well. Do you understand?"
Maybe it was because her body was too uncomfortable, or maybe it was because Su Man's tone was too gentle, but the fear and grievance that Zhou Pingping had accumulated for many days burst out at this moment.
Zhou Pingping burst into tears, "Auntie, Pingping really knows she was wrong, Pingping regrets it so much..."
She bit her fingers and cried bitterly, and Grandma Zhou wiped her tears out of heartache.
Su Man patted her back and comforted her, "It's not too late, everyone is here..."
Zhou Pingping was already dizzy from the fever, and after crying so hard, her body became as limp as noodles and she fell into Su Man's arms.
Suman carried her back and covered her with thick clothes.
Zhou Pingping's feet were badly swollen. Grandma Zhou first massaged the tendons for a while, then crushed some herbs and applied them to her feet. Finally, the swelling was healed.
-
The next day, although Zhou Pingping still felt dizzy, she felt much more energetic.
Grandma Zhou found her a thick wooden stick as a crutch so that she could support herself and walk.
Everyone was working, and Zhou Pingping didn't want to be idle. When she saw Zhou Anan filling water into the water bag, she wanted to go over and help.
As soon as she moved closer, she stopped again, apparently afraid that Zhou Anan would refuse her help like before.
Zhou Anan noticed someone behind her and turned to look. Zhou Pingping subconsciously took two steps back, fearing that she would offend Zhou Anan.
She walked very awkwardly with a cane, and her eyes were so cautious that Zhou Anan couldn't get angry.
He was also woken up last night and heard Zhou Pingping's confession.
Su Man was right. In fact, Zhou Pingping had changed a long time ago, but he just didn't want to see it.
"Pingping, come and help."
“…”
When Zhou Pingping heard Zhou Anan's words, she was in disbelief and thought she had heard it wrong.
When she realized that Zhou Anan was talking to her, her eyes instantly turned red.
"Why!"
Zhou Pingping helped Zhou Anan hold the water bag, and Zhou Anan poured water into it.
Looking at Zhou Anan who was drinking water seriously, Zhou Pingping's tears fell down.
She thought her brother would never talk to her again in his life, but fortunately, her brother was still willing to talk to her.
Tears fell and were wiped away by Zhou Pingping with her sleeves.
