A'ruan usually didn't have the habit of sleeping in, even when he was at home, so Sun couldn't help but feel nervous.
He wiped his hands on his apron, lowered his head and touched Wei Luo's frightened little face, and said, "A Luo, go to the field and call your mother back. I'll go to the old house first."
Wei Luo obediently put on his clogs and ran to the field. Sun's mind was full of A'ruan's affairs, and she even forgot to remind him not to fall.
Sun locked the door and went to the old house immediately. Just as Wei Luo said, A Ruan hasn't gotten up yet, and the door to the yard was locked from the inside.
Sun leaned against the door and shouted many times but no one answered. He paced back and forth at the door anxiously until Wei Lian strode over.
"I'll find a ladder to climb in." Wei Lian only said this and went home to carry the ladder. She climbed in first and opened the gate of the yard from the inside before Sun led Wei Luo in.
The door of the main room was also locked from the inside. Wei Lian decided to break in without any hesitation.
After knocking hard for a while, the door lock inside was broken and the three of them were able to get in.
After all, there are differences between men and women. Wei Lian stood at the door of the inner room and asked Sun to go in first to see what was going on.
Sun drew aside the curtain and saw A'ruan lying on the bed, curled up in a ball with her face inwards.
"Aruan?" Sun hurriedly walked to the bedside, only to find that Aruan's face was red from burning, his lips were pale and chapped, and his body was curled up on the bed, convulsing.
Sun touched A'ruan's head with trembling hands, and she screamed in shock at the burn. She immediately called Wei Lian to get a doctor!
After Wei Lian left, Sun was not idle either. She quickly fetched some cold water, soaked a towel and put it on A'ruan's head. She lifted up the sweaty hair on his forehead that was stuck to his face. Only then did she realize that his forehead was swollen from somewhere, red and purple, and it was scary just to look at.
Sun was shocked. She didn't know what she was thinking about. Her face suddenly looked a little ugly. She muttered to herself, "Aruan looks like this, could it be that she was beaten by Amin?"
Could it be that Wei Min has lost interest in A'ruan and has started to abuse this mute husband who can't fight back or talk back when he's beaten or scolded?
Sun was shocked by her own idea and immediately shook her head and said no, no, she had been married for so many years and had watched Wei Min grow up, and she was not that kind of person.
But if Wei Min hadn’t hit him, why would there be a swelling on A’ruan’s head? How could it burn like this overnight? A'ruan is not a child anymore. He won't be as careless as A'luo who falls down while walking.
Sun's face changed from time to time. She looked outside the door and saw that Wei Lian had not come back yet. She gently opened the collar of A Ruan's shirt and checked him.
There was no need to look further inside, as soon as Sun saw the neck, he stopped. Ah Ruan's fair and slender neck was covered with traces of love, the colors were different shades and had not faded yet...
This, this...
Sun sat on the edge of the bed with her brows furrowed and her hands twisted together. After waiting for a while and seeing that Wei Lian hadn't arrived yet, he went out to take a look.
Wei Luo stood obediently beside the bed, looking at the person on the bed with red eyes. When he saw Sun go out, he secretly touched A Ruan's face with his hand and whispered, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
I don’t know whether he was saying this to A’ruan or to himself.
It rained heavily yesterday and the roads in the village were muddy and difficult to walk on. The doctor is already in his fifties. No matter how anxious he is, he dare not walk faster. Otherwise, how can he continue to treat patients if he falls without seeing the patient?
Wei Lian helped the doctor walk a few steps, and finally couldn't help squatting in front of her and said, "My sister is not at home, and my brother-in-law is really ill. We can't delay any longer. Come up quickly and I will carry you."
The doctor did not refuse as human life was at stake.
Sun paced back and forth at the door anxiously. She saw Wei Lian coming with the doctor on his back from afar and immediately went to greet him.
The doctor walked into the room and saw the unconscious man lying on the bed with a fever. His brows knitted together, "Why is the fever so severe?"
The doctor kept his eyes on the patient on the bed, put the medicine box aside, sat on a low stool and began to feel his pulse. "I felt his pulse and it was so hot. If it was half a day later, he would have died of fever."
Wei Lian and Sun were immediately worried.
The doctor felt A Ruan's pulse and saw the wound on his head. He then looked at his forehead and said, "You didn't apply medicine after you hit it. It must have been broken. Otherwise, it would have left a scar if it came into contact with water."
The doctor talked a lot, and finally stood in front of Wei Lian and his wife and concluded: "At least the fever started yesterday morning, and it was probably a low-grade fever at the time.
Looking at the wound on his forehead, although it wasn't broken, the skin was broken. It looks a bit serious today. I'm afraid it was because he got caught in the rain yesterday.
I had a low fever and was caught in the rain, which led to a high fever in the middle of the night yesterday, and it has continued until now. ”
When Sun heard this, she felt relieved and her expression looked better. It seems that A'ruan was caught in the rain after Wei Min left.
The doctor turned his head and glanced at the person on the bed. He hesitated for a moment and didn't say what was on his lips. Instead, he said something that made Wei Lian and his wife freeze in their place, "With such a high fever, I can only do my best to treat him. If the fever doesn't go away by tomorrow, the person may die."
If you have anything to say, wait until the person in the bed can recover.
Wei Lianren seemed to be nailed to the ground, unable to move. Sun's face turned pale and her voice trembled as she said, "He's dead? He just had a fever, how could he be dead? Doctor, you have to save him!"
The doctor sighed, "It's my duty as a doctor to treat illnesses and save lives, but if he doesn't make it, there's nothing I can do. I can't go to the underworld and ask the King of Hell for his life, right?"
"I'll leave some medicine for him. Please do your best to take care of him."
After the doctor finished speaking, he packed his box and left again. Wei Lian was dazed for a moment, then came back to her senses. She asked Sun to boil the medicine, and she carried the doctor back on her back.
There are two doctors in Qinghe Village. One of them was said to have worked as a doctor in the city when he was young, and returned to the countryside when he got old. The medical skills are better, but it is not easy to hire them.
Wei Lian was looking for her without even thinking about it. Now that she had invited the old lady here, she naturally had to send her back. Otherwise, she would be worried if the old lady fell on the road.
Seeing that Wei Lianren was honest, the doctor charged her less for the consultation and warned her, "I'm going to say something unpleasant, your brother-in-law may not make it, so you should call your sister back as soon as possible.
What if he has a goal in mind and can get through it? Even if we take a step back and say something unlucky, it would be better if... the two of them met for the last time..."
Wei Lian knew that what the doctor said was unlucky, but it was also the truth, so she nodded and thanked him.
After returning to the old house from the doctor's house, Wei Lianren was in a daze.
When he came back and saw Sun decocting the medicine, he said, "I'll go to the county to call Ah Min back. You try to find a way to feed Ah Ruan the medicine first."
Ah Min loved Ah Ruan so much. Wei Lian didn't even dare to think about what would happen to her sister if she suddenly passed away.
In order to travel faster, Wei Lian borrowed a donkey cart.
…
When Wei Min woke up in the morning, he felt a little uncomfortable in his chest, as if something had been poking him all night.
She stretched out her hand and rubbed it twice. Just as she picked up the book, she saw the teacher coming in from the door. He glanced into the school and finally fixed his eyes on her. He said, "Wei Min, someone from your family is here to see you."
Home?
Wei Min put the book down and quickly followed the teacher out.
When he arrived at the entrance of the academy and saw that the person standing there was Wei Lian, Wei Min's lips trembled for no reason, and the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became even stronger. The fingers hanging by his side unconsciously curled into fists.
As expected, Wei Lian didn't say any nonsense when she saw her, but said directly: "Aruan may not be able to make it, you should go back and take a look."
Wei Min was startled, as if someone had hit him on the back of his head with a stick. He heard a buzzing sound, and his mind went blank. His vision went dark for a while before he found his voice again. He asked hoarsely and tremblingly, "What did you say?"
Wei Lian grabbed Wei Min and didn't bother talking to her. Instead, she said to the teacher beside her, "Something happened at home. Give her two days off."
From the sisters' words and reactions, the Master guessed that something serious might have happened in Wei Min's family, and immediately said, "Okay, okay, if there is anything, go back quickly and tell Master Wei when you come back."
Wei Lian thanked her repeatedly, pulled Wei Min onto the donkey cart, and told her in detail what happened that morning as they drove back.
The path after the rain was muddy due to the passing of people and donkey carts. When they came back, the donkey pulling the cart was braying and stamping its hooves in the mud without moving forward.
Wei Lian anxiously drove the donkey away, while Wei Min pounded the donkey cart in annoyance, cursed under his breath, and jumped off the cart, saying, "Sister, I'll go back first."
After saying that, he lifted up the hem of his clothes, pinned it around his waist and started running.
Wei Min did not dare to stop along the way. She was out of breath when she returned home. Her hair was loose and tangled around her sweaty neck. Her cloth shoes were covered in mud and the original color was almost unrecognizable. A lot of mud was also thrown on her body. She came back and rushed into the room, not stopping until she saw the person on the bed.
Sun was sitting on the edge of the bed feeding Ah Ruan medicine, but what she fed him was less than what he vomited out. When she was about to pry his mouth open with a spoon, she saw Wei Min coming back.
Sun was very tactful and placed the medicine bowl on a stool beside her, then took Wei Luo out and left the inner room to Wei Min.
Wei Min stood at the door, and waited until Sun left before walking to the bedside. He sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the man who was fine when he left yesterday. Now he was lying on the bed with pale lips and weak breathing. His nose felt a little sore for a moment. He reached out and stroked his face, stroking it gently with his thumb, "Aruan?"
Wei Min's hands were shaking from the heat under them. She calmed herself down, lowered her head and placed her forehead against A'ruan's, and called out in a hoarse voice, "A'ruan," she paused, closed her eyes, and spoke in a very low voice with a barely perceptible tremor through her sobs, "I'm back..."
