"Brother! Is your leg hurting again?!"
Hua Li's expression suddenly became anxious, and she looked at her second brother with anxiety and worry.
Every winter, my second brother's injured leg would hurt. It was just a little bit painful at first, but later it would be so painful that it would almost make people faint.
There was no other way. Every time at this point, my second brother could only endure it by himself, and they couldn't help at all...
I don’t know if it’s because we walked in the snow for so long yesterday, but my second brother’s leg disease seemed to have recurred early. It never occurred so quickly before.
Hua Yu leaned against a bamboo chair, almost curled up, with one hand covering his leg and the other arm resting on his forehead. He seemed to be in great pain and shivered.
Hua Ligan stood there anxiously, not daring to reach out to touch his second brother.
Unable to help, Hua Li didn't know what to do. All his emotions were revealed on his face, uneasiness, helplessness...
Hua Shi witnessed all this with his own eyes, and stopped where he was, not moving forward.
Hua Yu's leg disease relapsed. It was probably an old problem that he hadn't treated properly when he was injured...
The culprit of all this was "her". Hua Shi knew that he could not help even if he went there, so he stood there and took a look for a few seconds before hurried out the door in the wind and snow.
To make matters worse, the already difficult living environment was made even worse by the two people falling ill one after another...
Hua Shi planned to go out and use his only two cents to exchange for two kilograms of rice.
Coarse rice is fine, or brown rice with stones mixed in it will do... At least I can get something edible to fill this fragile stomach...
Hua Xiao came out with the cooked medicine and happened to see the back of the figure leaving the courtyard gate.
When Hua Xiao turned around and found his second brother almost curled up in the chair, he immediately reacted and knew that it must be his second brother's leg injury.
When the weather gets cold, if you don’t pay attention, it’s easy to relapse...
It just so happened that not long ago, my second brother sprained his ankle again, and it hasn’t healed yet. He has been in pain for so long, and he himself doesn’t take it seriously. It’s only a matter of time before it relapses!
Hua Xiao was also angry and anxious. He quickly walked forward and asked in a low, concerned voice, "Brother, your leg injury has recurred? How is it now? Is it still painful?"
"…fine."
Hua Yu's voice of pain was heard. Hua Xiao listened and her eyes suddenly turned red and tears came.
"I told you to be careful, but you didn't listen. I told you to stop neglecting your body... Sigh, I'm too lazy to tell you anymore. It's no use saying it..."
Hua Xiao's voice choked with sobs and scolded, and paused again and again.
The little girl felt so bad for her second brother, but there was nothing she could do. If only she had some money, even if she couldn't cure her second brother's foot, she could buy him some medicine so he wouldn't have to suffer so badly...
"Hua Li, go to the stove and fill a wooden basin with boiling water. Bring it over to soak my second brother's feet. Warming them up will make them feel better."
Hua Xiao wiped her tears and gave Hua Li instructions in a nasal voice.
Hua Li responded and turned to run towards the kitchen.
"well……"
She sighed deeply like a little adult.
After taking a look at his second brother's curled-up back, he carried the almost dried medicine into the house, woke up the drowsy Huaying, fed him the medicine, let him lie back down to sleep, and covered him tightly with the quilt.
When she came out of the house again, Hua Li had already brought hot water and was soaking her second brother's feet.
After soaking in hot water, the piercing pain finally subsided a little...
Hua Yu reacted belatedly and found that a layer of cold sweat had appeared on his back under his thin clothes. His hands and feet were trembling and he was in so much pain that he had no strength left.
"Brother, are you feeling better?"
Hua Xiao stood beside him, looking at him with concern.
Hua Yu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, then shook his head, "It's okay."
Hua Xiao felt relieved when she heard that although his voice was a little weak, it didn't sound like he had no strength left.
But she still couldn't help nagging, "I'm not saying this to you, second brother, but can't you pay more attention to yourself? It's always like this..."
As the little girl spoke, her voice choked up again, "…If something happened to you, what would we do…"
He glanced at his sister, who was crying with tears in her eyes and a face full of sorrow, and felt no emotion in his heart...
He didn't say anything, but just lowered his head and looked at the swollen ankle soaking in the hot water.
This place is twisted and ugly, and it really makes people... angry.
He didn't know why. The pain was so piercing that it made him cry, break out in a cold sweat, and tremble... The physical torture should have been excruciating...
But why, deep down in my heart, I seem to long for this kind of pain...
Hua Xiao was still sobbing quietly.
But the second brother didn't react at all, he was stubborn as hell, and he definitely didn't take her words to heart. Whatever happened, it was still the same. Really...
