Han Yixian, eager to alleviate Du Yuhan's condition, said, "After lunch, I'll have Liu Gang go to the hospital to ask your aunt for a few more IV bottles. Fill several thermos flasks with hot water tonight. Also, buy two more thermos flasks; fill them with water when the water cools down at night. Changing them once a night should be enough."
Girls really shouldn't catch a cold. Look at how you've suffered. Go lie down on the kang (heated brick bed) in the east room later; it's warm there and will help you warm up.
Du Yuhan declined, saying, "I'll just lie down in this room. You need to take a nap at noon."
Han Yixian said, "Don't argue with me about this. I don't care if I take a nap or not. You're still in pain, aren't you? Or should I just cover it with my hand like this? My hand is just as good as a thermos."
Du Yuhan blushed instantly upon hearing Han Yixian's words. She pushed Han Yixian's large hand away, turned her back to him, and said, "I don't need you anymore."
Han Yixian looked at Du Yuhan's somewhat embarrassed and angry expression and secretly scolded himself for his loose tongue. Why did he have to tease her? Now he had made her angry.
Han Yixian quickly said, "Yuhan, I'll go make up your quilt. You can lie down on the kang in the east room in a little while."
Then he actually went back to the east room.
Du Yuhan knew that Han Yixian had a hard time getting into bed, so she couldn't let him make the bed. She quickly sat up, put on her clothes, and said, "I can do it myself."
She realized that she couldn't refuse this request today.
She endured the stomach pain and went to the east room, where she saw Han Yixian already on the kang (a heated brick bed) and laying out a mattress at the head of the kang.
Du Yuhan quickly climbed onto the kang (heated brick bed) and said, "I told you I can do it myself. I have my own blanket."
Han Yixian said, "No need for that. Just use my blanket."
As he spoke, he quickly made up the bedding and looked at Du Yuhan, saying, "Lie down quickly, change into your pajamas, it'll be more comfortable to sleep. Don't worry, I won't let Liu Gang into this room."
Du Yuhan sighed as she looked at Han Yixian's unyielding expression and said, "Fine, I'll listen to you. I'll go get a small blanket."
The small mattress that Du Yuhan brought is the one she's currently using. She's just worried that if she gets the mattress dirty while sleeping in the ** (likely referring to a specific location or event), it will be difficult to wash.
She absolutely had to put this down, otherwise she would bang her head against the wall if she accidentally dirtied Han Yixian's bedding.
Han Yixian saw that Du Yuhan had agreed, so he didn't say anything more, but he was very happy.
The thought of the little girl lying in his usual sleeping spot, covered by his blanket, warmed my heart.
Du Yuhan was so tormented by stomach pain that she didn't want to move anymore, so she laid out a small mattress and went into bed.
Because the kang (heated brick bed) is heated every day, the headboard is always warm, and lying on it is indeed very comfortable, especially in this cold weather.
Soon Du Yuhan felt much warmer and her stomach pain was relieved.
Han Yixian left the east room because he was afraid that Du Yuhan would feel uncomfortable.
Liu Gang carried the simple meal he had prepared into the living room.
Han Yixian said softly, "Gangzi, Yuhan caught a chill. I've sent her to lie down on the kang (heated brick bed) in the east room, so you don't need to go into the east room."
Upon hearing this, Liu Gang quickly nodded in agreement. As long as Du Yuhan wasn't seriously injured, that was fine.
Han Yixian made a bowl of hot soup and went into the east room. He whispered to Du Yuhan, "Yuhan, get up and drink some hot soup. It will warm you up."
Du Yuhan was still a little dazed. Hearing Han Yixian's words, she sat up and said, "Brother Han, I'll just have a bowl of soup. I really can't eat anything else."
Han Yixian said, "Okay, I'll have a bowl of hot soup."
Du Yuhan took the soup bowl, tested the temperature, and found it wasn't too hot, so she quickly finished the soup.
She handed the bowl to Han Yixian and lay down again. She felt sore all over and just wanted to sleep.
Han Yixian took the bowl and left the east room.
While eating the bland food, Han Yi said, "Gangzi, go to the city later and buy a few pounds of pastries, a bag of brown sugar, and a thermos. I'll give you the money and receipts later. Also, go to the hospital and ask Director Han for a few IV bottles to fill with hot water for Yuhan to warm up."
Liu Gang readily agreed. He also hoped that Du Yuhan would recover quickly, otherwise he would have to cook for her.
Although his cooking skills have improved a lot, he can only cook the food properly; the taste is still far from good.
After finishing lunch, Liu Gang cleaned up the kitchen and then rode his bicycle to complete the task that Han Yixian had given him.
After Liu Gang left, Han Yi first checked the door of the east room to see if Du Yuhan was sleeping soundly before going to the west room, getting into bed and lying down in the spot where Du Yuhan had slept.
There was a faint fragrance in the quilt. It seemed like a floral scent, but it wasn't quite. He knew it was Du Yuhan's body fragrance lingering on the quilt she slept in for so long.
Han Yixian, covered by Du Yuhan's blanket, felt a mix of excitement and sweetness. This was the first time he had ever been so close to a girl's belongings, especially something so intimate.
Most importantly, this is a quilt that Du Yu used to cover herself with.
Du Yuhan is currently covered with his blanket and using his pillow. And he's covered with Du Yuhan's blanket and using Du Yuhan's pillow—does that count as them sharing a bed?
Han Yixian couldn't help but smile when he thought of this.
He will wait for her to grow up, and wait for the day when they can truly be together.
Liu Gang first went to the grocery store to buy snacks and brown sugar. Seeing that the store was selling steamed rice cakes, he bought two jin (1 kg).
He knew that the snacks his brother had asked him to buy were definitely for Du Yuhan, since Du Yuhan had only drunk a bowl of soup at noon and hadn't eaten anything else.
This rice cake is softer and easier to digest, and it can also satisfy hunger.
He bought another pound of brown sugar before taking the items to the hospital to see Director Han.
Han Xiuqin was surprised to see Liu Gang come to the hospital to see her and asked, "Xiao Liu, what brings you here? Is there something you need from Yixian?"
Liu Gang said, "Brother Xian is fine, he just asked me to ask you for a few of those glass IV bottles."
Han Xiuqin asked curiously, "What does Yixian need that thing for?"
Liu Gang replied, "Yuhan is sick; her stomach hurts. Brother Xian said it's because she caught a chill. Filling an IV bag with hot water can warm her up."
Upon hearing that Du Yuhan was ill, Han Xiuqin asked with concern, "Is Yuhan alright?"
Liu Gang replied, "It should be nothing serious. Brother Xian told Yuhan to lie down on the kang (heated brick bed) in the east room now. It's warmer there."
Han Xiuqin was delighted to hear this; it seemed her nephew was quite caring.
Han Xiuqin found a few IV bottles and gave them to Liu Gang, saying, "I'll go see Yuhan after get off work. Don't let a minor illness turn into a major one."
Upon hearing this, Liu Gang happily said, "That's wonderful that you can go and take a look. I'll be going now, Director Han."
Han Xiuqin nodded and said, "Go ahead, be careful while riding your bike."
When Liu Gang returned to the courtyard, Han Yixian was already up. He had slept very well during his afternoon nap.
