Chapter 196 Dad, you need to be more careful in the future.
"Big brother, you're the kind brother who gave Su Bao food, right?" Little Su Bao couldn't help but ask excitedly.
"Su Bao is so silly, how come I didn't think of you!" Little Su Bao tapped her head and couldn't help but say.
She remembered that when she was very young, the Lan family held a banquet. She was extremely hungry and wanted to go to the kitchen to get some food for her mother and herself.
But the little dumpling was too hungry and couldn't walk any further halfway there.
She saw a little boy crying.
The young man had burned his hand and was holding his ankle, but there was no one around.
He must have gotten lost, otherwise how would he have ended up in front of the dilapidated courtyard in Lanjiazui?
Little Su Bao didn't dare to look up, but gently tugged at his clothes, turned and ran away, without even seeing his face clearly.
She led him to the courtyard in front of the Lan family's house, and only left secretly after watching someone take him away.
She didn't get very far before a maid grabbed her and tried to beat her.
"Little mute, have you come to steal food again?" a maid asked, grabbing her and speaking unkindly.
Little Su Bao didn't even make any extra movements; she simply squatted down on the ground, holding her head, as was her habit, waiting for the impending pain.
"You dare!" A voice rang out, and the little dumpling was immediately stunned.
It turned out that the young man had returned, bringing her a lot of food and having his men send the maid away.
Little Su Bao didn't dare to look up, much less look at him, but secretly pricked up her ears to listen to what he was saying.
"If you dare to tell anyone what happened today, I'll say you've slighted me. You're just a maid, do you know the consequences?" The little boy who had been crying just moments before spoke domineeringly to the two maids.
The little maid was so frightened that she quickly begged for mercy. After receiving a promise, the little boy let them go.
The maid dared not tell anyone about it.
That was the first time Xiao Su Bao knew what it felt like to be protected...
Her mother was seriously ill and had no idea that she was being bullied. She didn't dare to tell anyone, afraid of upsetting her mother.
"It's alright!" came the little boy's voice, but Xiao Su Bao instinctively covered her head and hid behind him.
The little boy paused, and Xiao Su Bao saw a burn the size of a coin, which she secretly memorized.
"Alright, are you hungry? I have some pastries here, you can have them!"
He handed a small bag containing pastries to the little dumpling. The little darling saw the food, grabbed it, and ran off.
At this moment, as she looked at Zhao Yun, those memories that had become somewhat hazy resurfaced.
“Little Su Bao, did you know him before?” Madam Qian was also taken aback when she thought of the first time she met this little beggar.
Little Su Bao paused for a moment, then nodded.
For the first time, Xiao Su Bao's gaze fell seriously on Zhao Yun's face, and then a trace of recollection appeared on her little face.
"Two years ago, when Mom was still alive, someone bullied Su Bao. The older brother helped Su Bao fight back against the bad guys and even gave Su Bao some pastries to eat."
"That was the first time Su Bao had ever tasted such delicious pastries. Mother said that only the most famous pastry shops in the capital could make them..."
Mrs. Qian sighed, not expecting that the child was also pitiful.
He paused, then looked at Doctor Song and said, "Doctor Song, what medicinal herbs do you need? Tell me, and we'll do whatever it takes to save this person first!"
Doctor Song breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Zhao Yun's body temperature slowly drop and his hands and feet warm up.
Just then, he overheard Xiao Su Bao and Qian Shi's conversation and said, "Don't worry, as long as the fever goes down and she can drink the medicine, I still have some solutions!"
Dr. Song had never known about bloodletting from the ten fingers to reduce fever before, so this was something he learned.
Zhao Yun's cheeks were no longer as red as before, but they were covered with a fine layer of sweat.
"He's sweating! He's sweating!" Old Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes shining.
It's clear that Zhao Yun, despite his young age, is very popular in Jixiang Village today.
Zhao Sanpao slumped down to the side, tears streaming down his face.
"Dad, please be more careful in the future. Let's not let the village chief always protect us, okay?" Zhao Sanpao said to his father.
My son and I owe Zhao Yun two lives!
"I...I understand!" Old Zhao let out a long breath and said in a simple and honest voice.
He was not good with words to begin with, and now he turned to look at Madam Qian, opened his mouth as if to say something.
After a while, he knelt down on both knees and kowtowed to Madam Qian.
"Thank you, Aunt Qian, thank you, Su Bao. I'll do anything you ask me to do from now on!" Old Zhao was quite direct.
As for his father and his brothers...
Zhao Laoda had never been close to them before, and when his own father harmed his son, he was even more furious.
Some of the evidence on Fulin's side was provided by this eldest son!
But Village Chief Zhao probably won't know this until he dies!
"Alright, stop kneeling. You and your son really are related..."
After a pause, Madam Qian looked at them and said, "Have someone go and get the food later!"
Little Su Bao rubbed her eyes and glanced at the sky outside. It was already getting light.
Slowly, more voices began to emerge in the village.
When Xiao Su Bao came out, Xiao Mo Bao was standing at the door, and he took out a hard-boiled egg from his pocket.
"Eat!" Little Mo Bao said to Little Su Bao.
Madam Qian couldn't help but tease, "What about mine? You wouldn't have only prepared one for my daughter and not one for me, would you?"
This child seems to only talk to other children, just when she thought Xiao Mobao wouldn't talk to her.
Little Mo Bao took out another egg from his pocket and handed it to Qian Shi: "Auntie...eat!"
Ms. Qian was somewhat flattered...
Remembering his second uncle's words, Xiao Mobao stuffed the egg into Qian's hand.
"Eat!" The little guy looked at Qian Shi with a strange light in his eyes.
Knowing the child's condition, Madam Qian quickly realized what was happening and said with a smile, "Okay, Auntie will eat. You're so kind to know that Auntie was hungry so early in the morning!"
Qian peeled an egg in a few quick movements with one hand and handed it directly to Xiao Su Bao.
Then she took the egg from the little dumpling's hand.
"Let's go back first!" Madam Qian led the two children back home.
When Zhao Yun woke up, he witnessed this scene. He was slightly taken aback, and his eyes held a light that did not belong to a child.
In this lifetime, he still wanted to give it a try, even if he ultimately failed...
Just as Xiao Su Bao and the others returned to their village, people arrived from outside Tangjia Village again.
