Although the residential area and the courtyard are only separated by a road, the middle of them is full of zombies.
It's not impossible to drive there and deliver it.
However, the zombies are very likely to collectively ram the gate of the small courtyard.
Last time, the gate to the small courtyard was almost knocked down.
Chen Zhou wasn't sure if the gate to the small courtyard could withstand another impact.
When Qiao An'an suggested asking Chen Zhou for the medicine, she had already thought of how to exercise. She had found a drone in the cabin before. The drone couldn't carry very heavy things, but it would definitely be fine to carry a few boxes of medicine. So she replied to Chen Zhou, "As long as you agree to give me the medicine, I can use the drone to pick it up."
At this moment, Aunt Fang, who was standing next to the sunken boat, spoke up. She and Li Nana, who had been murdered, worked at the same hospital. Although she was not a doctor, she was a senior head nurse and a pediatric nurse with a wealth of experience: "Generally, antipyretics are only used when the body temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees Celsius. Fever is just a symptom, and simply taking antipyretics will not have a therapeutic effect. Therefore, antipyretics should be taken every 6-8 hours."
The medication for a cold should be determined based on the severity of the illness. If it is viral, antibiotics are not necessary.
Cephalosporins are only needed for bacterial diseases.
Whether it's bacterial or not requires testing, and we also need to confirm whether the child is allergic to cephalosporins before administering them. Since we can't do that right now, I'll give you some children's cephalosporins as well. Don't rush to give them to your child; only use them if the high fever persists.
Qiao An'an thanked her repeatedly with gratitude: "My Ya Ya developed a fever this morning after falling into the water. She has taken cephalosporins before and is not allergic."
After listening, Aunt Fang told Qiao An'an that if the fever was just caused by falling into the water and catching a chill, there was no need to give the child anti-inflammatory medicine. After all, medicine has some side effects. The child was simply chilled and frightened. After the fever subsided, just make sure to keep her warm.
The drone quickly delivered the fever reducer and anti-inflammatory medication.
Qiao An'an hurriedly gave Ya Ya fever-reducing medicine according to the instructions. Ya Ya was so feverish that she couldn't speak. After drinking the medicine, she fell down and drifted off to sleep.
Grandpa Gu Bei advised Qiao An'an to go to sleep for a while: "I was busy all night yesterday and didn't sleep much this morning. Go to sleep for a while, and I'll watch over Ya Ya for you."
Qiao An'an shook her head and refused: "I can't sleep well until Ya Ya's fever goes down."
Seeing this, Grandpa Gu Bei had no choice but to light the fireplace in the room.
It's late November now, and it's already not warm. In the past, the heating would have been on for half a month by this time, but people were usually reluctant to light a fire for warmth, since going there involved a lot of risk.
However, the back mountain is relatively safe now.
And Ya Ya is sick.
It will be better for Yaya if it's warmer inside.
Seeing Qiao An'an's anxiety, Chi Xiaoyu and Gu Bei also couldn't rest easy. Together, they moved the heavy tea table blocking the back door, carried bluestone bricks back and forth to the backyard, and then used the bluestone bricks and clay to build an 80-centimeter-high wall next to the fish pond.
The pond in the small courtyard is rectangular, with one side adjacent to the courtyard wall.
Although it is seven or eight meters long, they only need to build walls on the long side and the two wide sides that are closest to the yard, which greatly reduces the amount of work.
Moving the bluestone slabs was a massive undertaking.
It took Chi Xiaoyu and Gu Bei two or three hours to barely move enough bricks to build the fishpond wall.
Time passed by, and half an hour later, a little sweat began to appear on Ya Ya's back. Although she was still very hot, the sweating meant she was getting better, and Qiao An'an finally felt a little relieved. After another hour, Ya Ya's entire back was covered in sweat, and four hours later, the temperature on Ya Ya's forehead and body had dropped a lot.
I took Yaya's temperature with a thermometer, and it was 37.9 degrees Celsius, which is no longer considered a high fever.
At this moment, Ya Ya was no longer sleepy. After drinking some water that Qiao An'an gave her, she actually said she was hungry: "Mommy, Ya Ya wants to eat sweet and sour pork ribs, and also braised fish!"
At this moment, Grandpa Gu Bei came up with a bowl of pig's trotter soup.
He simmered this soup all afternoon.
He handed the soup to Qiao An'an and asked her to feed it to Ya Ya: "You just recovered from your fever, so you can't eat such strong-flavored food. Come on, drink some of the soup that Grandpa made first. After you're completely better in a couple of days, I'll have your mother make some for you."
Ya Ya wanted to say that she didn't like drinking soup, she only liked eating meat.
However, the soup that Grandpa Gu Bei brought over was milky white, with a few bright green scallions floating on top. You could smell the rich aroma even before you took a sip. After one bite, Ya Ya was completely won over by the pig's trotter soup.
The soup has a light salty taste with a fragrant aroma.
It feels warm inside when you drink it.
It's very comfortable.
The pig's trotters in the soup bowl were stewed until they were incredibly tender; with a slurp, the skin and meat still attached to the bone melted in your mouth.
When stewing pig's trotters, Grandpa Gu Bei divided each trotter into 4 pieces.
Ya Ya wanted more after finishing one piece.
Qiao An'an didn't dare to give her any: "You can't eat too much right after your fever breaks, or you'll get sick again. Just lie down and go to sleep."
A big bowl of soup with pig's trotters. Ya Ya was actually full, but she still wanted to eat more. When she heard her mother say that she would get sick again, she immediately stopped eating and had to lie down obediently.
After Qiao An'an went downstairs to eat, Ya Ya stuck her little feet out of the blankets again.
There was no way around it; it was too hot inside the blankets.
Qiao An'an didn't eat much at noon, not because she wasn't hungry, but because she was worried about Ya Ya.
Now that Ya Ya's fever has subsided, she feels much better and has regained her appetite, so she came downstairs for dinner.
While Chi Xiaoyu and Gu Bei were building the wall for the fishpond, Grandpa Gu Bei not only cooked pig's trotter soup, but also stir-fried celery with shredded pork and stir-fried Shanghai bok choy with cured pork, which looked very appetizing.
Qiao An'an ladled out a bowl of rice, only to find that Grandpa Gu Bei's bowl contained the leftover chive dumplings she had eaten at noon. She handed the untouched rice to Grandpa Gu Bei, saying, "This is what I left over. I'll eat it."
Grandpa Gu Bei refused to take Qiao An'an's bowl, saying only, "I like to eat chive dumplings, don't try to take them from me."
The freshly made chive boxes were oily and crispy, and the chives and eggs inside were very fresh. They were really delicious.
It became soggy after being steamed in the pot.
The vegetables inside were overcooked and didn't taste good at all.
Qiao An'an knew that Grandpa Gu Bei said this on purpose so that she could have a fresh meal. She accepted his kindness and smiled at Grandpa Gu Bei, "Thank you, Grandpa."
Grandpa Gu Bei smiled and pushed a large bowl of soup in front of Qiao An'an: "I've been simmering this for several hours. Don't waste it, drink more."
Qiao An'an didn't eat much at noon, and Chi Xiaoyu and Gu Bei had been doing physical labor all afternoon, so everyone was starving.
The food on the table was quickly devoured by everyone.
After they finished eating, Gu Bei helped clear the table. Qiao An'an thought for a moment and asked Gu Bei's grandfather, "Chen Zhou did help me after all. Although he said he didn't want any reward, I can't really give him nothing, can I?"
