Chapter 9: The disease relapses
The weather in early autumn was gradually getting cooler. The few people had just finished their work and were sweating a little, but they didn't dare to take off their clothes.
As soon as they walked into the yard, they saw Village Chief Wang coming out of Xie Shuangbai's house holding a bowl of medicine.
The three sisters were so frightened that they ran over and asked:
"Uncle, what happened to my brother?"
The village chief led a few people to the open space nearby and said softly:
"He had a fever this morning, but it's gone now. He just fell asleep. You can go see him after dinner."
Although the three were worried, they were also afraid of disturbing their brother who had just fallen asleep.
"I understand, Uncle Wang. I'm sorry to trouble you again."
Xie Qiushi clenched his hands and whispered.
The three of them had lost their appetite for lunch. Cui knew their worries and said softly:
"It's okay. Your Uncle Li said that you'll be fine after taking two more doses of medicine. If you ruin your health first, what will happen to Frost?"
The three of them nodded when they heard this and said, "Aunt is right. We need to keep ourselves healthy and strong. Big Brother will still depend on us in the future!"
They seemed to be motivated and started eating with big mouthfuls.
Cui looked at the three of them and couldn't help but be moved by their brotherly love.
I thought to myself: Mrs. Bai really gave birth to four good children.
After dinner, the three of them helped Cui finish her work and hurried to see Xie Shuangbai in the house.
The adobe house was a bit shabby. When they pushed the door open, they saw Xie Shuangbai lying on a small bed in the corner of the room with a pale face. The three of them felt nervous when they saw it.
The thing Xie Qiushi feared most finally happened.
If the price of leaving the Huang family is for her brother to become like this, she would rather not have it.
Xie Chunmiao was also frightened. Her elder brother had just gently told her that he was fine two days ago. She hadn't even woken up from the joy of leaving Huang's family, and her brother...
Tears slipped out of my eyes unconsciously.
Xie Shuangbai seemed to sense her sisters' sadness and struggled to open her eyes.
"Brother, how are you?"
The three of them squatted beside the bed and asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, brother is lucky enough not to die. You guys fix the house well, and we'll move in when I get better."
The three of them became even more frightened after hearing this.
"Brother, I regret it. If I have to exchange your body for my freedom, I would rather not have it!" Xie Qiushi cried sadly.
"I regret it too!" Xie Xiachan cried out of breath.
"Me too!" Xie Chunmiao burst into tears.
"What nonsense are you talking about? You are hurting me by saying this now. Only if we live a hundred or a thousand times better than the Huang family can we live worthy of our mother's spirit in heaven."
Xie Chunmiao cried out, "Mom! Please bless my brother!"
Xie Qiushi also cried: "God, I am in good health, please shorten my life span and give it to my brother!"
Xie Xiachan also wiped her tears and said, "God, I am the second one, subtract mine!"
"I'm the youngest, so I'll take mine!" Xie Chunmiao was not willing to be outdone, fearing that God couldn't hear him.
"Okay, no one's going to get any less. If you keep crying, I might really have to die." Xie Shuangbai said weakly.
"Brother, you are not allowed to say that, we..."
The three of them quickly shut up, stopped sobbing, and finally even softened their breathing, for fear of disturbing him.
Xie Qiushi touched Xie Shuangbai's head, which was no longer hot, and tucked the corner of the quilt for him, "Brother, have a good rest."
After saying that, he pulled his two sisters out of the house.
Xie Shuangbai in the room was also thinking that his illness this time was sudden and strange.
I don’t know if it’s because I drank too much spiritual spring water yesterday and my body can’t take it.
Everyone who was burned today is confused.
It seems that although the spiritual spring is good, he cannot drink too much, otherwise he may not be able to bear it for his weak body.
However, it may not be a bad thing that the accumulated problems will return this time. What if the hidden root of the problem is brought to the surface?
His mind was full of thoughts, and he didn't know if this was the reason, but he decided to just drink a small amount every day.
The three sisters who came out of the house looked solemn.
"Erya, Sanya, the most important thing for us right now is to quickly repair the house and let brother feel at ease!"
"That's right, I will make a lot of money in the future and make Huang die of rage. Why can she, a bad person, live well while my brother has to suffer like this!" Xie Chunmiao said angrily.
"Third sister is right, we want to live better than the Huang family!" said Xie Xiachan.
"We have to cheer up and stop letting Big Brother worry about us. He took care of us when we were little, and now it's our turn to take care of him!"
"Don't worry, big sister, we will listen to you. From now on, the three of us will be big brother's pillars of support!"
The three sisters held hands, their eyes determined, as if they were saying the oldest oath.
"Well, the four of us will definitely get better and better, and Big Brother will definitely be healthy and live a long life!"
After their brother fell ill again, the three of them became even more determined to protect him and to anger Huang to death.
But they didn't know that Huang, whom they said was going to be so angry that she would die, was actually at home gloating over the misfortune of their brother whom they cared about!
On the table in the main hall of the Xie family were the cakes that Huang had bought from the town.
Xie Jiaorui picked up a piece carelessly and swallowed most of it in one gulp. The fat on her body shook with her movements, and the crumbs of the cake she had just eaten fell to the ground. From a distance, the ground looked dirty with crumbs.
Huang frowned, but didn't say anything. It wasn't because she had a good temper, but because she was in a really good mood today!
She picked up another piece of mung bean cake, which was soft, sweet and delicious, and then she swallowed it in one bite without any manner of manner.
The mung bean cake was choking, so I quickly took a sip of water and burped at the end.
Seeing the residue on his fingers, he licked them, wiped his saliva-stained fingers on his clothes, smacking his lips, looking as if he was still unsatisfied, which made Xie Minglang feel disgusted.
It was really vulgar. No wonder his father looked down on her mother. She would pretend when his father was around, but now she simply doesn't pretend anymore. It really makes him unbearable!
Mrs. Huang, who was standing by, didn't notice her son's disgust at all.
The more she laughed, the happier she felt, feeling that the pent-up anger in her chest had finally been released, and she laughed loudly in the room:
"The little beast is dying. This morning I saw Old Man Li coming out of Wang's house in a panic. That little beast must be dead. Haha!
I let this sickly guy cheat me out of my money. Now even God can’t forgive him! I have to take this little bastard away!”
"Who says it isn't? He has a face full of seductiveness, and now he is going to die like his short-lived mother!" Xie Jiaorui said while sucking her fingers, smacking her lips, remembering the taste of meat:
Mom, today is such a nice day, how can we not eat meat! "
Mrs. Huang was not angry when she heard her daughter say that she ate meat.
Who told her to speak from the bottom of her heart?
Like his short-lived mother, Sickly Boy had a vixen-like face. Thinking of the gossipy women in the village who often talked about how ugly and vulgar he was, and how beautiful and gentle his mother was, she became furious.
What’s the use of looking good? It’s only edible and drinkable!
In the end, he still died. Even if he gave birth to a son, he would still be short-lived!
Now the sick boy is going to go find his short-lived mother, and she feels relieved!
He wiped his mouth with a smile:
"You little girl, you're greedy again! But I'm in a good mood today. Let's kill a chicken, drink chicken soup, and eat chicken meat. You little bastard only deserves to drink soup and medicine, hahaha!"
