Chapter 28 Tired and Hungry



The Qian family had a lot of things to do, so Shen Zhimei didn't dare to stay any longer. She put down her bowl and chopsticks and hurried back with her two daughters.

Shen Zhihuan slept until noon the next day. If she hadn't been so hungry, she would have probably continued sleeping.

Shen Zhihuan patted his still dizzy forehead and struggled to get up from the bed.

How bad is this body?

After a night's rest, not only did I not feel any relief from my fatigue, but I felt sore all over and couldn't muster any energy.

If the windows and doors had not been tightly closed, she would have really suspected that someone had beaten her up under the covers while she was sleeping.

“Gurgle gurgle…”

The protest from his stomach forced Shen Zhihuan to walk towards the kitchen.

Suddenly, the world spun around, and Shen Zhihuan felt his eyes go dark...

"Third sister!" Little Weidong, who was still outside the courtyard gate, screamed in fright at the sight of her.

“Zhihuan!” Li Qiuhua, who was following closely behind Xiao Weidong, was also frightened and his face changed. “Go find your Grandpa Hua quickly.”

Xiao Weidong didn't bother to respond and ran for his life towards the Hua family not far away.

Li Qiuhua trembled as she closed her eyes and carried Shen Zhihuan, whose face was almost transparent, back into the house.

Soon, Dr. Hua, carrying a medicine box on his back, was dragged over by Xiao Weidong and Xiao Pang, who were crying loudly.

Looking at his grandson who was crying so hard that snot bubbles came out of his nose, Doctor Hua's hand on Shen Zhihuan's pulse froze.

I don’t know if this heartless ungrateful guy will cry like this when he dies in the future.

"Uncle Hua, didn't you say Zhihuan is getting better? How...how..." Li Qiuhua's eyes were red and tears were falling down.

"Grandpa, you must cure Sister Huan!" Xiaopang pulled up his sleeves to wipe the snot that was about to hang into his mouth, and said with tears in his eyes.

Little Weidong sobbed, "Grandpa Hua, my third sister..."

"Grandpa, I don't want to..." be a bachelor!

"Uncle Hua, Zhi Huan..."

"Shut up! Shut up! Can someone take your pulse please?" Doctor Hua could no longer bear it and stood up suddenly.

From the moment he entered the room, he felt like there was a swarm of buzzing flies around him, making him unable to rest for a moment.

Diagnosis requires quietness. Do these people understand this?

Li Qiuhua bit her lip and stopped crying instantly.

Xiao Weidong and Xiaopang also hurriedly covered their mouths with their hands.

Seeing that the men had behaved themselves, Dr. Hua sat down again.

Time passed by minute by minute...

It was not until Doctor Hua withdrew his hand that Li Qiuhua wiped the tears from her face and said tremblingly: "Uncle Hua, Zhihuan..."

"It's okay, she's just very tired and hungry. Hua Niu, I'm not saying anything bad to you, but you don't know the condition of Zhihuan's body. How could you let her be so tired and hungry?" Doctor Hua said with a gloomy face.

No matter how tight the food rations are, we cannot let a patient go hungry.

Li Qiuhua bit her lip and lowered her head, tears silently sliding down her face, dripping onto the coarse cloth clothes on her chest, soaking a large area in a moment.

"Hua Niu, if Zhihuan doesn't take good care of her body, big problems will arise sooner or later. By then, it will be too late for you to regret." Seeing Li Qiuhua like this, Doctor Hua couldn't help but sigh.

"Uncle Hua, I understand. I will never let her go out again." Li Qiuhua choked.

"She is your daughter, you should decide for yourself!" Doctor Hua left the prescription, picked up the medicine box and took Xiaopang away.

Li Qiuhua didn't even have time to make lunch, so she let Xiao Weidong eat some peach cakes she bought in the county town yesterday. She took the prescription and went to the village clinic.

"Is your husband sick again?" The woman curled her lips, with a hint of teasing in her voice.

There are 365 days in a year. The sickly person needs to take medicine for 300 days. If he doesn't get sick for three days, he has to get well five days later.

"Yeah!" Li Qiuhua lowered her eyelids, bit her lip, and handed over the prescription with gritted teeth.

"Buying on credit again?" The woman glanced at the prescription and said mockingly with contempt in her eyes.

"I'll send the money to you later." Li Qiuhua's expression changed slightly.

"Later? How late? The 30th of the twelfth lunar month? Don't forget, your family still owes my second brother eighty yuan!" the woman said with a smile.

Fortunately, her second brother and his wife were smart and got rid of the sickly man.

Otherwise, once that sickly person entered her second brother's house, her nephew would be dragged to death by that sickly person.

"I will definitely send the money to you before dark." Li Qiuhua's hands hanging on both sides suddenly tightened.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"What if you can't get it before dark?" The woman raised her voice slightly, with undisguised contempt in her eyes.

"Hongying, believe me, I will send the money to you before dark." Li Qiuhua promised quickly.

"Call me Doctor Su." The woman raised her chin.

At this time, hurried footsteps were heard outside the village medical station.

Hearing the familiar footsteps, the woman's expression changed slightly. She picked up the prescription that Li Qiuhua had placed on the counter in a second and began to pick up the medicine.

"Your daughter is sick at home, don't you know? And you still have the mood to chat here?" Doctor Hua glanced behind the counter with a cold face.

Li Qiuhua lowered his head and said nothing.

He knew that if he didn't make that trip, the girl would have no chance of taking the medicine in order.

Mr. Su is such a good man, how could he raise such a good-for-nothing.

And that Su Changhe... Shen Zhihuan was awakened by the smell of the bitter medicine soup. Looking at the two pairs of red eyes, one big and one small, Shen Zhihuan felt a little confused .

"Zhihuan, you scared me to death." Li Qiuhua carefully helped Shen Zhihuan up.

"Mom, I'm fine. I'm just hungry because I didn't eat last night." Shen Zhihuan's whole body was still sore. Not daring to be strong anymore, Shen Zhihuan leaned softly against the head of the bed.

"Third sister, Grandpa Hua said that you are tired and hungry. Third sister, I have grown up now. Mom and I will take care of the housework in the future. You just need to take good care of your health." Little Weidong said with red eyes.

"Dongzi, give me the medicine, and you go get a bowl of rice porridge for your third sister." Li Qiuhua felt so distressed when she saw her daughter with pale lips.

If she had been a little more helpful as a mother, her daughter would not have gone into the mountains for a living, and would not have fainted from exhaustion.

If anything happens to my daughter...

Li Qiuhua didn't dare to think about it.

The medicinal soup was sour, astringent, and bitter. Shen Zhihuan pinched his nose and drank it all in one gulp, fearing that if he hesitated, he would not have the courage to take a second sip.

In her previous life, her grandparents often used some folk remedies to nourish her body, but none of them were so unpalatable.

It was not until he finished a bowl of rice porridge that Shen Zhihuan felt the bitter taste in his mouth faded a little.

"Mom, please keep this money." Shen Zhihuan took out the cloth bundle that contained the money yesterday from under the pillow on the inside of the bed.

"This is your money, Mom can't take it." Li Qiuhua waved her hands quickly.

"What do you mean your money, my money? This is our family's money." Shen Zhihuan stuffed it into Li Qiuhua's hands.
