Tao Wenwen was woken up not long after she fell asleep, as if she was still sleepy.
She sat next to Gao Yue and started yawning within a minute.
Xu Xiangdong looked at her sleepy eyes and knew at a glance that she had just woken up.
He scratched his head embarrassedly, "Are you asleep? I didn't know you went to bed so early... Otherwise, why don't you go upstairs and sleep for a while? I'll call you when the medicine is almost done!"
Tao Wenwen held her cheek and thought, how uncomfortable it must be to have her sleep interrupted. Wouldn't that make her feel uncomfortable again?
She glanced at Gao Yue, who seemed to have no intention of going upstairs.
If he didn't go up to rest, she certainly wouldn't want to go up to rest.
Tao Wenwen waved her hand and said, "No need. I'll go rest after I'm better. It won't take a while longer."
The room was silent. Xu Xiangdong seemed to have just realized what was happening. "Auntie Wang hasn't come back yet?"
Tao Wenwen shook his head, frowned, and looked outside.
Xu Xiangdong guessed she must be worried, so he consoled her, "Auntie Wang is a very busy person, so something might have delayed her. The rain has subsided now, so she might be back soon."
Tao Wenwen wondered if Wang Xiaomin had really abandoned her, so she didn't listen to Xu Xiangdong's words carefully. After he finished speaking, she just subconsciously nodded.
While she was speaking, Xu Xiangdong suddenly looked at Gao Yue.
He continued, "Gao Yue has no one to take care of you, and you're still young. How about I go back after delivering the medicine and then come over to wait for Aunt Wang with you?"
"It's uncertain when they'll be back." Tao Wenwen refused without hesitation and said, "No need. Gao Yue will wait with me."
“...Okay then.” Xu Xiangdong smiled awkwardly.
The medicine had to be simmered slowly over low heat, back and forth, and it took nearly two hours to complete.
When Tao Wenwen saw Xu Xiangdong off, the rain outside had stopped.
She returned to the house and was about to close the door when she heard footsteps outside again.
"Who?" Tao Wenwen stuck his head out and saw relatives of the Zhang family in Shangnan Village.
She seemed to have seen him once in Zhang Ertian's shop, but didn't have much impression of him.
A young man in his twenties came over and said, "Tao Wenwen, your mother asked me to tell you that she will be back tomorrow."
Tao Wenwen couldn't remember who he was, so he asked, "Who are you?"
"...I'm Zhang Kongming!" Zhang Kongming couldn't believe it. "You really don't know me?"
When Tao Wenwen heard his rough voice, she immediately remembered.
Zhang Kongming, 20 years old, was not good at studying. He was held back in the fourth grade. Later, he became a classmate of Tao Wenwen, who had just entered the fourth grade.
But he had a fierce look on his face, and looked like a gangster.
Tao Wenwen was very afraid of such people. Although they were classmates, she had never spoken to him.
No wonder she couldn't find any memory of Zhang Kongming in the original owner's mind.
"It's too dark, I can't see." Tao Wenwen tried to smooth things over.
Zhang Kongming finally relaxed his expression and said, "I went into the city with my uncle today. The doctor said that my uncle's condition is very complicated and he needs to stay in the hospital for observation, so I went back first. Your mother asked me to take care of him, and now I'm here. You take care of yourself, and don't blame me for not telling you later!"
Tao Wenwen: "..."
Does she look like someone who would cheat?
hehe.
Tao Wenwen said "oh" and closed the door directly.
Zhang Kongming: “…”
