"Mother, I am teasing you. I know you truly love me."
"I'm hungry, mother." Qiu Yinong said coquettishly.
Mother Qiu looked at her lovingly and tapped her nose: "Cunning little girl, hurry up and pack up and get ready for dinner."
Qiu Yinong chuckled, packed up his things, and glanced at Chu Hongyun who was still sleeping with his eyes closed.
She walked over to him and touched his foot with hers.
"What's wrong?" Chu Hongyun opened his eyes, his vision a little blurry because he had just woken up.
Qiu Yinong looked at him like this, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly: "You were a flower thief last night, and you slept so soundly. It's time for dinner."
"Oh, okay." Chu Hongyun didn't care about the sarcasm in her words and stood up while responding.
When Qiu Yinong saw him go to the well to wash his face, she also carried her things back to the house.
"Today is a happy day. Ah Yan has passed the examination and will go to the county school to study. Come, have a drink with dad."
Father Qiu happily poured wine for his sons. Qiu Hansheng wanted to take it, but Father Qiu dodged him.
"Dad is coming today."
Seeing this, Qiu Hansheng no longer insisted. The five brothers all held the wine glasses with both hands and asked Qiu's father to pour the wine.
"Ayun, can you drink?" Father Qiu looked at Chu Hongyun beside him and asked.
Chu Hongyun looked at Qiu Yinong, who put down the bowl with a smile: "The alcohol content of the peach blossom wine is not strong, you can have a small drink."
"Since Yi'er said she can have a drink, then come and have a drink with your uncle." Father Qiu asked Mother Qiu to bring the wine glass. Chu Hongyun quickly stood up and said he would go by himself.
After spending these days together, Mr. and Mrs. Qiu had already treated him as their own nephew.
I didn't bother to be polite with him and let him take it himself.
"Thank you, uncle. Congratulations, uncle." Chu Hongyun was used to calling him that and was too lazy to change his words.
Mr. Qiu laughed and said okay.
Seeing the men getting more and more drunk, Qiu Yinong gave a warning before returning to her room after finishing her meal: "Don't drink too much, be careful of your wound getting infected."
"Okay." Chu Hongyun responded with a smile and really stopped drinking.
Qiu Hanqing narrowed his eyes and looked at him. This kid was becoming more and more dangerous. Chu Hongyun was indeed a good person, but it would not be a good idea to have him as a brother-in-law.
He is too old. He is already 22 years old and his sister is only 14 years old. There is an eight-year age difference.
Chu Hongyun glanced at Qiu Hanqing. It seemed that her second brother had always been very hostile to her.
He thought about it carefully and it seemed that he had never offended him.
After showering in the space, Qiu Yinong took out a pen and paper and wrote down the next plan.
It wasn't until there was a knock on the window that Qiu Yinong looked up and saw a figure standing there.
"Go to bed early, don't stay up too late." Chu Hongyun's voice came. Qiu Yinong nodded and looked at the hourglass. It was indeed late.
"I understand. You should go to bed early too." Qiu Yinong replied. Chu Hongyun also responded and turned to go to his room.
The next morning, Qiu Yinong was still combing the hair in the yard.
Around a quarter past four, a child suddenly ran into the house and called out, "Aunt Yinong, Aunt Yinong, the village head sent Xiaohu to call you over."
"Xiaohu, what's wrong?" Qiu Yinong looked at the child, put down what he was holding, walked over and asked.
Xiaohu blinked his eyes and said clearly: "I don't know, Ermao fell asleep and her mother was crying."
As he was speaking, a girl of about thirteen or fourteen ran over.
Seeing Qiu Yinong talking to Xiaohu, she put one hand on her waist and panted, "Sister Yinong, hurry up, Ermao has a high fever and fainted. The village head asked me to call you to save him."
"My brother runs fast, he can't explain clearly, you go and have a look."
"Okay, don't worry, cousin, just leave the things there. You won't go out, right?" Qiu Yinong turned to Chu Hongyun and said.
Chu Hongyun sat up and nodded at her: "I'll watch over it for you, go ahead!"
"Okay." Qiu Yinong responded, and then asked where Lian Zhi Ermao was. She took a deep breath and ran away quickly.
"Great, so fast!" Lianzhi was surprised, and then took Xiaohu to where Ermao was.
Qiu Yinong arrived at the place very quickly, and many people were gathered there.
Someone saw Qiu Yinong coming and quickly shouted, "Get out of the way, Xiaoliu is coming."
The villagers turned around and made way.
A young woman was sitting on the ground holding a child. When she heard Qiu Yinong coming, she quickly looked up at her.
"Xiao Liu, Xiao Liu, hurry up and save my Ermao, he was fine just now."
"Just after the fried Sanzi were done, I took some out for the children to share. But not long after, a child came to tell me that Ermao had fallen down."
"When I came out, his face was red and he had a high fever. He was able to respond to me at first, but within a short while, he passed out."
Qiu Yinong hurried forward and took Ermao's pulse.
Then he lifted up his eyelids and looked at his mouth, and touched his forehead with his hand.
"The high fever isn't caused by a food allergy, nor is it caused by inflammation in the body. You said he ate Sanzi?"
"Well, he has been eating these days and was fine before. Why is there a problem today?" Ermao's mother cried again in anxiety.
Qiu Yinong gestured for her to be quiet: "Crying won't solve the problem. Let me wake the child up first."
I took out the acupuncture kit and gave Ermao three injections. He woke up quickly.
"Mom...it hurts, it hurts so much..."
"Where does it hurt?" Ermao's mother asked hurriedly.
Ermao raised his hand and wanted to grab something, but due to the high fever and exhaustion, he failed several times.
Qiu Yinong observed his movements and her eyes fell on his head.
"Let his hair down so I can see." Qiu Yinong said.
Ermao hummed twice, and Qiu Yinong knew that she was not mistaken, he just had a headache.
A maid came forward to help, and soon the bun was untied.
Qiu Yinong parted his hair and saw some lice crawling on the child's head, and she had already guessed something.
I parted his hair and quickly saw a red bump on the top of his head.
Signaling the old woman to help hold down her hair, Qiu Yinong took out a small porcelain bottle from her purse.
He grabbed some cotton and fixed it on a bamboo stick, opened the porcelain bottle, dipped it in iodine and rubbed it on the red, swollen and white areas.
Then take out a small porcelain bottle and put the tweezers in it to disinfect them.
Then he pricked the white area and squeezed it with both hands, and pus spurted out mixed with a bamboo thorn.
Ermao cried loudly in pain. Although his mother felt distressed, she also knew that she couldn't let him move.
Qiu Yinong squeezed hard until red blood appeared.
Then he took out a small box, scrubbed the wound with iodine again, and sprinkled the powder in the small box on the wound.
"Alright, next time you comb his hair, be careful. You didn't notice the bamboo thorns piercing his flesh."
"It's hot and it's inflamed and it's festering."
"This is a pill for clearing away heat and detoxifying. You'll be fine soon after taking it."
