Chapter 76
"Does the child have a fever?" Seeing the child's slightly red cheeks, Tang Jing asked as she stood up.
It was the first time that Ruiting saw her son in such a serious condition. Her voice became a little unsteady: "Yes, he has a fever. He must have been frozen."
After a simple examination, Tang Jing took out a thermometer and put it under the child's armpit before taking out the registration form to register the information. Seeing that the child's mother was very anxious, she said in a gentle voice, "I just felt it, and the temperature is not high. Maybe you don't even need a shot."
Hearing this, Ting Ting finally felt a little relieved. She also remembered that it was Doctor Tang who saved her son. She said hurriedly, "Thank you, Doctor Tang, for pulling my son out of the ditch. I wanted to bring my child here to thank you, but I didn't expect this to happen."
Tang Jing laughed: "If it's something that requires some effort, anyone who sees it will lend a hand, so there's no need to come over and thank you..."
Actually, this is enough, after all, they are not familiar with each other, but Tang Jing thought about it and added: "Children of this age are lively and active, so we should keep a closer eye on them in the future."
Hearing this, Li Ting did not think that this was too much, and nodded repeatedly. Then, like most mothers, she boasted unconsciously: "My Guoguo is actually very well behaved. Today, he slid down because he saw a fish in the ditch and wanted to catch it for me to eat."
Tang Jing really likes children. Hearing this, she smiled and praised him: "It turns out that you are still a little man. You are so brave!"
Guoguo's face was already a little red due to the fever, and after being praised like this, it became even redder. She buried her little face in her mother's arms.
Tang Wenlan, who saw the car running in, was very happy: "Okay, okay, this is quite powerful, it should be fine."
Ruiting was also worried, but now that she was comforted, she calmed down and just kept holding the child in her arms.
"38.5 degrees." After chatting for a while and estimating the time, Tang Jing took out the thermometer and said, "It's not very high. Take two antipyretic pills. Go home and drink more water. Then wipe it with warm water a few more times..."
Tingting also knew that it was better to take medicine instead of injections, so after thanking her, she asked, "If physical cooling doesn't work, do I still have to get injections?"
Tang Jing wrote a prescription and replied, "It depends on the specific situation." She looked at her watch and said, "I will be off work in an hour. I will go to your house to see the child after get off work."
Hearing this, although Tingting felt a little embarrassed, she couldn't bear to let her son go back and forth. After all, the temperature in early February was not very high: "Then...thank you, Dr. Tang."
Tang Jing shook her head: "You're welcome. This is my job."
The thanks were not only for the child's illness, but also for helping to pull the little guy out of the ditch.
But at this moment, Ruiting was busy getting medicine for the child, so she did not say anything in a hurry. She just said a few more thanks and hurriedly went to get the medicine with the child in her arms.
Maybe it's because of good physical condition.
After returning home, I took two pills and Ruiting helped me with physical cooling.
When Tang Jing came to check on him after get off work in the evening, his temperature had dropped and he started wanting to eat this and that.
Seeing that he was full of energy again, she finally felt relieved and poked him several times in anger: "What the hell! Have you forgotten how you got a fever?"
Guoguo shrank her neck: "Isn't Mom not angry anymore?" She was hugging him with love just now, why did she suddenly turn against him?
Hehe, she sneered, "Who said I'm not angry? I still have to settle the score with you!"
After hearing this, the kid was even more confused: "Brother Jianbing said that when I was sick, my mom was very nice and easy to talk to. She would give me whatever I asked for!"
She is quite petty. Tingting held back her laughter and continued with a straight face, "I'm asking Aunt Lan differently from you. If you are sick in front of Mom, you can't do anything!"
How could this happen?!
After being hit hard, Guoguo didn't cry. Instead, he sighed like a little adult, turned over and faced the inside of the bed, muttering softly: "...I can't bear to change my mother, so this is the only way."
The corner of her mouth twitched: "I heard it, you are really a filial son to your mother."
Thinking that he was being praised, Guoguo immediately turned around proudly and said, "I will be as filial as my parents!"
"Pfft..." Tang Jing, who had been trying to hold back her laughter, finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Seeing this, Ruting reached out and rubbed her son's head and smiled too.
Although Guoguo didn't know what the adults were laughing at, he felt that at this moment he should still try to get a piece of candy.
Then, the little thing rolled its eyes and started to act coquettishly in a sticky way.
Ruting was just teasing him, but when she saw him calling her "Mom" all the time, she felt so soft-hearted that she couldn't bear it anymore. She took out a White Rabbit that she had prepared long ago from her pocket and handed it to him.
The little thing was really beautiful. After giving her mother a kiss, she sat next to her and put the candy in her mouth.
Seeing that he was no longer whining and listless, Tingting looked at the doctor and said, "Doctor Tang, is Guoguo better now? Do you still need to take medicine?"
Tang Jing stood up and began to pack the medical kit: "After another meal, the fever may come back. You should drink more water. If nothing happens tonight, you don't need to take medicine tomorrow... By the way, if anything goes wrong at night, come to the dormitory and call me."
Li Ting took note of it carefully, and when she was about to send him off, she tried to persuade him to stay again, "Thank you so much, Doctor Tang, you should eat at home."
Hu Xiu, who came out after hearing the noise, also invited him warmly: "Yes, Dr. Tang, please stay and try my cooking skills."
Being a doctor is her job. Tang Jing is not used to eating in a stranger's home, and is not good at dealing with such enthusiasm. She waved her hands and hurriedly pushed the door open to go out.
Unexpectedly, someone outside opened the door and she stumbled and bumped into that person.
Tang Jing's face immediately turned red. She didn't care about the pain on her cheek from being hit, and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, comrade, are you okay?"
Dong Xiao didn't expect to meet someone unexpected when he followed his friends home for a meal. He frowned immediately and asked, "Why are you here?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Tang Jing looked up and her smile fell. If she hadn't been well-educated, she would have wanted to say "bad luck".
Of course, even without saying it, her expression says a lot.
After fully expressing her dislike for men, Tang Jing nodded to the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, "Comrade Ting, I'll leave first."
Ruting was not slow to notice the unpleasantness between the two, so she simply stopped trying to keep them company: "Okay, okay, I'll trouble you, Doctor Tang, today."
Huo Xiao pulled his brother aside and looked at his wife worriedly: "Who is sick?"
Ruting was looking at Dong Xiao with gossipy eyes, and immediately talked about Guoguo's fever when she heard the words.
Huo Xiao was indeed worried, and asked while changing his shoes, "How is it now?"
Li Ting invited Dong Xiao into the house, closed the door and then said: "The fever has subsided. Doctor Tang is a very nice person. He was worried that Guoguo might catch a cold from running back and forth, so he came to see her specially..." While speaking, she kept looking at Dong Xiao with curiosity.
Dong Xiao... "... ahem... sister-in-law, I'll go see Guoguo..."
Seeing Dong Xiao fleeing in panic, Ruting became even more curious, and so was Hu Xiu.
Facing the double stares from his mother and wife, for the sake of brotherhood, Huo Xiao only held on for a few seconds before he began to tell the truth: "In short, the two parents felt that Dr. Tang and Dong Xiao were a good match and could go on together, but Dr. Tang didn't fancy Dong Xiao."
Although he was playing with Guoguo, Dong Xiao, with his ears perked up, immediately became unhappy: "I just didn't like her, okay? That girl was very domineering when she was little, not like she is now."
Ruting exclaimed "Wow!", her eyes sparkling: "Childhood sweethearts!"
Dong Xiao...
Guoguo cooked it again in the evening.
Worried that his breastfeeding wife would be infected, Huo Xiao lived alone in a small room with his child.
Fortunately, the fire started quickly and went out quickly, so we didn't have to worry for long...
The next day, when the family sat at the dinner table to eat, little Guoguo was already jumping around.
Today is the first day of school, not only for elementary and junior high schools, but also for kindergartens.
Hu Xiu picked up a small flower roll wrapped with chopped green onions and took a bite. Then she looked at her daughter-in-law and said, "I plan to make some green bean cakes during the day. Can I send some to Doctor Tang?"
Ruting just nodded and asked, "You're not going to send it directly to the health station, are you?"
Hu Xiu smiled and replied, "Of course I'll send it to the dormitory. Am I that unreliable? There are so many people at the health station. Wouldn't that make it difficult for Doctor Tang to do his job?"
Ruting gave her mother-in-law a thumbs up and said, "My mother is the best."
Guoguo was a person who went crazy by himself. Seeing this, he stopped peeling the bumpy eggs in his hands and stretched out his two little hands to give a thumbs up: "Grandma is the best!"
Huo Xiao reached out to catch the egg that had rolled off the table. The pit on the egg pricked his eyes and it hurt, so he simply helped peel the egg and threw it into his son's bowl.
Because I'm a boy, my father always tells me to do everything by myself, so Guoguo always peels eggs by himself.
He looked at the boiled egg in the bowl, half of which was pitted and the other half was smooth, and fell into deep thought.
Huo Xiao didn't notice the little thing's abnormality. He looked at his wife and said, "When the weather gets warmer, remind me to teach the kids to swim."
Li Ting: "Are they too young? I'm worried that if they learn it, they will go down to the river."
Hearing this, Huo Xiao glanced at his son coldly and said, "If you dare to go into the river, I will break your legs."
Guoguo shrank his neck, then realized belatedly that he was being targeted.
Just when I was about to protest and ask why I was only talking to him, I met my sister's gaze.
Fruit...
After breakfast, Tingting took two small snack boxes from her mother-in-law, put them in her bag, and then took Miaomiao out.
On the first day of school, the couple planned to send their children to school in person.
When Guoguo saw her mother holding her sister, she also unconsciously held her father's hand.
Along the way, my father would occasionally pick me up with one hand and let me jump.
The happy little guy laughed loudly and was still a little reluctant to leave until he reached the gate of the kindergarten.
Ruting bent down and scratched her son's little nose, then touched her daughter's little hair, then smiled and said, "Come into the classroom quickly, Mommy sees that there are already some kids in your class."
Hearing this, Guoguo turned around and saw a few little friends lying by the window.
He immediately turned around and said hurriedly, "Goodbye, Mom and Dad."
Ruting pinched his cheek with amusement, and told him not to take off his clothes and play around, then she and her husband left.
After mom and dad walked away, Guoguo, who was heading to the senior class hand in hand with her sister, suddenly exclaimed, "Sister, brother Jianbing didn't lie. It's really good to be sick. Dad helped me peel eggs this morning!"
Miaomiao glanced at her stupid brother with a bit of disdain: "Because you look ugly."
Guoguo choked and quickly found another excuse: "Well... Grandma also made a lot of delicious food, it must be for me."
Miaomiao spoke the truth: "Because school starts today, it's for everyone."
Guoguo still didn't give up: "But...but mom and dad still sent me to school."
Miaomiao pulled her brother and turned around, pointing at the two people who were leaving side by side: "Dad is just dropping us off."
As she said this, she saw her brother was about to open his mouth again, and the little girl, who was annoyed and could no longer bear it, raised her hand directly...
Feeling the pain on her cheek, Guoguo was stunned for a moment before she jumped up and said, "Sister, ah... it hurts."
Miaomiao: "If it hurts, just shut up!"
Guoguo: o(╥﹏╥)o
