Chapter 1033: Poison (IV)
"Xiangmei, since the hospital checked that there is nothing wrong with my body, then there must be nothing wrong with my body. I may really be exhausted during this period. When I go back, I will go to the factory to ask for a few days off, and then have a good rest at home for a few days. I will go to work after I have rested well."
Zheng Xiangmei nodded after hearing what Lu Xuewen said, and then she asked the doctor: "Doctor, what can I eat to nourish my body?"
"Chicken broth, fish broth, malted milk, these are all fine."
"Thank you, doctor."
After Zheng Xiangmei brought Lu Xuewen back home, she asked Lu Xuewen to lie on the bed, and then she went to the factory to ask for three days of leave for Lu Xuewen.
After asking for leave, Zheng Xiangmei thought about the doctor's words and went to the black market in the county. The things the doctor had just mentioned were definitely not available in the county's supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores, so she could only buy high-priced goods on the black market.
"Dad, why isn't Mom at home?" When Lu Tiantian came home from school and didn't see Zheng Xiangmei, she asked Lu Xuewen who was sitting on a stool drinking tea.
"Your mother must have gone out to buy something. You should go back to your room and do your homework."
"good."
After Zheng Xiangmei bought everything the doctor asked for at the black market, she walked out of the black market with a painful look on her face. This trip to the black market cost her almost fifty yuan to buy a can of malted milk, a chicken and two fish, which was equivalent to her monthly salary. If it weren't for Lu Xuewen's health, she would never have come to the black market to buy things. The things on the black market were too expensive, more than three times the price of those in the supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores.
"Xuewen, why don't you lie down on the bed and have a good rest?" Zheng Xiangmei asked Lu Xuewen when she saw him sitting in the living room after returning home.
"I'm not feeling unwell at all right now. I felt uncomfortable lying in bed, so I came to sit in the living room."
After hearing what Lu Xuewen said, Zheng Xiangmei did not continue to persuade Lu Xuewen to lie down on the bed. However, before going to cook lunch, she told Lu Xuewen: "If you feel unwell, remember to go to bed and rest immediately. I will cook fish soup for you now."
"good."
"By the way, have Tiantian and Mengmeng returned home?"
"They're back. They're both doing their homework in the room now."
"Mom, were you calling us just now?" Lu Tiantian asked Zheng Xiangmei after opening the door of the room.
"No, have you finished your homework?"
“It’s already been written.”
"Now that you have finished your homework, come to the living room and chat with your dad. Your dad has not been feeling well these past few days, so remember to keep an eye on him while you chat with him."
"Mom, do you want to take Dad to the hospital?" Lu Mengmeng asked after hearing Zheng Xiangmei's words.
"I took your dad to the hospital this morning, and the doctor said there's nothing wrong with your dad's health."
Lu Tiantian and Lu Mengmeng breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what Zheng Xiangmei said, and then they said to Zheng Xiangmei, "Mom, go and cook lunch without worry, we will take care of Dad."
"good."
At 3:30 in the afternoon, after Lu Xiaoxiao carried the sixth basket of herbs she had dug on her back, she prepared to go down the mountain. After a whole day of digging herbs, her waist could hardly straighten up. It seemed that she could not come to dig herbs every day, otherwise even a strong body would not be able to bear it.
As Lu Xiaoxiao walked down the mountain, she was wondering what kind of medicinal herbs Liu Biao and the other four would dig up. If the herbs they dug were of good quality, then she would be able to relax a little in the future.
