Wang Xu was still sleeping very deeply. Gu Xi took the book back to the room. The room was warm and Wang Xu's face was a little red from sleeping.
Gu Xi checked with her hand, and then worriedly put her forehead against Wang Xu's forehead, and found that he had a little fever. She then rummaged through the drawers at home, trying to find a thermometer, but couldn't find one. She could only take out some antipyretic medicine for him.
"Wang Xu, open your mouth and take the medicine. You have a fever."
Wang Xu slowly opened his eyes, his eye whites turned a little red. At this moment, he was as obedient as a puppy. He opened his mouth, swallowed the medicine, drank two sips of water, and fell asleep again.
Wu Yue hurried over and knocked on the door: "Gu Xi, Wei Qingzhe has a fever, do you have any medicine?"
Gu Xi stepped aside and said, "Come in first. I'll go get the medicine. I'll give you four pills first. Wang Xu also has a fever, and I'm afraid it's not enough. Go back and feed him one pill first, and then another one after 8 hours. If the fever hasn't subsided tomorrow, it's best to go to the hospital."
Wu Yue nodded: "Okay, I understand. Just give me two pills. If not, send him to the hospital directly. Do you want to ask if the others are okay?"
Gu Xi pointed to the inner room and said, "Wang Xu has been sleeping since he came back. It's inconvenient for me to leave because he has a fever. If he wakes up and I'm not there, he will definitely be very sad."
Wu Yue smiled and said, "I see. When you're sick, you're more clingy. Qingzhe is the same. He's usually stricter with me than my dad, but when he's sick, he acts like a little kid."
Gu Xi smiled and said, "Then you should go back quickly. I'll go ask others if they are okay after Wang Xu wakes up."
In fact, I was a little worried about Congbao. All the other children were sent to the hospital, but Congbao was brought back early. I don’t know if he is okay.
Thinking about Yao Cuilian's words and actions made her angry, but Congbao was innocent. Gu Xi thought about it and knocked on the door. It was Tian Wangdi who opened the door: "Gu Zhiqing, why are you here?"
Gu Xi asked softly: "How is your brother? Does he have a fever?"
Tian Wangdi nodded: "He has a fever and keeps coughing. My mother put ginger on his navel to drive away the cold."
Gu Xi was a little speechless. What kind of messed up folk remedies were these? "Your brother got a cold from drowning and was frightened. Now he has a cough and fever. It's best to go to the hospital. The antipyretic medicine I have here is for adults, not children. The others have been sent to the hospital, only Congbao is still at home."
Tian Wangdi was also anxious after hearing this: "What should I do? My parents don't listen to me, so it's useless for me to say anything."
Gu Xi: "Go talk to your dad and repeat what I just said. I'm afraid if I delay, the child will easily develop pneumonia. It's up to them to decide whether to send him to the hospital or not. I've tried my best to remind him. Okay, I'm leaving now."
After returning home, I went to the kitchen to cook porridge again. It is easier for the patient to digest after drinking some porridge, so I added some red dates and milk powder to the porridge. Seeing that Wang Xu showed no signs of waking up, I decided to make some meat floss for him.
The pork tenderloin from slaughtering a pig in the village was still there. Gu Xi cut the meat into slices, put it in a pot and cooked it. She added onion, ginger and cooking wine to remove the fishy smell. After cooking for about an hour, the meat was stewed. She added soy sauce and sugar for seasoning, stirring it constantly with chopsticks until her hands were sore from stirring.
"This kind of rough work is really suitable for men."
After resting for a while, continue stirring until all the water in the pot is absorbed and the meat is fluffy and expanded, then it is done.
I put it in a big bowl to cool it down, and ate some clay pot rice and borscht in the kitchen. It was tasteless to eat alone, and I felt full after eating little.
Gu Xi served out a bowl of porridge and put the rest in the pot to heat up when she was hungry. He picked up another plate of meat floss and went into the room.
Wang Xu was still sleeping. Gu Xi suspected that the antipyretic contained sleeping pills, otherwise how could he have slept till now?
Gu Xi patted him gently: "Wang Xu, wake up, get up and drink some porridge before going to sleep. I cooked porridge and meat floss for you."
Wang Xu woke up immediately after hearing Gu Xi's call, and sat up as soon as he opened his eyes: "What's wrong? Are you hungry?"
Gu Xi looked at him angrily and amusedly: "I told you to get up and eat. I've already eaten."
Wang Xu closed his eyes and leaned his head back. He woke up for a few seconds before opening his eyes: "Have you eaten? Do I have a fever?"
Gu Xi hummed, "I have a fever, I was so confused that I didn't even know I sold you out. Drink the porridge, or else the fever will go away and you'll be hungry again."
Wang Xu took the porridge and said, "I'm sorry, your injury is not fully healed yet, and I still need you to take care of me, a patient."
Gu Xi got angry when she heard this: "Wang Xu, what do you mean by this? We have already obtained the marriage certificate, and we will take care of each other and support each other in the future. The road ahead is long, please don't make me sound like someone who will flee when disaster strikes, okay? You took care of me before, and it is only natural for me to take care of you when you are sick. Why do you have to apologize? Do I have to kowtow to you every day in the future to thank you?"
Wang Xu looked at her angry face and reached out to touch her: "Okay, I said the wrong thing, wife, where did you get this meat floss? Give me some. I'm sick and my mouth has no taste."
"I just made it. It's still a little warm. Try it and see if it tastes good. There's still a lot in the bowl. Eating some meat can also increase your nutrition. Wu Yue just came to me to get medicine. Wei Qingzhe also has a fever. Congbao didn't go to the hospital, but he also has a fever. The river water is really cold."
Wang Xu ate quickly: "Put the dishes here, I'll wash them tomorrow, you wash up and go to bed early, you must be tired from cooking and taking care of me today."
Gu Xi handed him a glass of water: "Okay, I'll take it to the kitchen. Drink this water, it will help detoxify and get better faster."
After washing up, he lay down next to Wang Xu. He forced himself not to fall asleep and waited for Gu Xi: "Why are you waiting for me? You should rest and sleep more."
Wang Xu held her in his arms: "It's over, wife, I can't get up."
Gu Xi thought he was going to the bathroom: "Do you want to go to the bathroom? I'll help you go."
Wang Xu laughed, from trying not to laugh to laughing out loud: "Wife, sometimes you are like a little gangster, and sometimes you are silly. I just went to the toilet. I mean, I can't get it up. My wife is in my arms. It's a pity that I'm behind schedule."
Gu Xi finally reacted and showed a regretful expression: "Ah? It's a pity that I can't get up. I still want to try the temperature of 39 degrees."
Wang Xu turned over and pressed the person under him: "My wife wants to try, so let's try."
Gu Xi pushed the man away, her face flushed red: "Get lost, lie down and sleep, don't pass the virus to me. I've read in the newspaper that there was a man who had a fever and died on the spot."
Wang Xu: …
Wang Xu knew that she was just talking tough but her actual ability was weak, so he was just teasing her and then lay down on the side.
Pretending to be regretful but also looking happy: "What a pity, I'm ready."
Gu Xi pulled the quilt and said, "Get ready, go to sleep."
At around 4 or 5 o'clock, Gu Xi wanted to give Wang Xu some medicine again, but when she touched his forehead, it became even hotter: "Wang Xu, are you still conscious? Your fever is getting worse. You still have to go to the hospital later."
