Mrs. Zhou's face was covered, her hands were wrapped extremely tightly, as she guarded the side of Chi Ye's bed with great pain.
The person on the bed had his eyes closed tightly, his face flushed red, and he occasionally snorted in pain. Seeing Chi Ye like this, Mrs. Zhou would rather the one who was sick be himself than have Chi Ye become like this.
Wasn't the reason why the Zhou family had spent so much effort to save up so much money for Chi Ye to properly study and bring glory to his ancestors?
The Mrs. Fang quietly pulled on Mrs. Song's sleeves, shot him a look, and retreated behind him.
”Mother,” Mrs. Song's pitch-black eyes stared fixedly at Mrs. Zhou, her hands anxiously grabbing at her sleeves, ”How is Fourth Brother?”
”If I didn't ask you to invite a doctor, why are you all standing here like this?” Mrs. Zhou's face turned cold, his heart turned cold, as he shouted loudly.
Mother, ”Mrs. Fang shook her head and slowly walked in front of Mrs. Zhou. She originally wanted to support Mrs. Zhou, but when his hand was about to touch Mrs. Zhou's clothes, she paused for a moment, retracted his hand, and carefully asked,” We are also worried about Fourth Brother.
It was a very hot day. The sun's flames burned the earth as if it wanted to roast the people on the ground.
Mrs. Zhou's back turned cold, her face became even more unsightly, she coldly looked at Mrs. Fang, and her voice became as cold as the winter wind, ”I told you to invite a doctor to come and see, who wants to gossip behind your back, do you believe that I will cut off your head!?”
Mrs. Fang immediately shut her mouth and turned to walk towards Erlang. She was just here to ask, seeing how Fourth Brother looked, he was most likely having smallpox.
”What are you all doing here?” Mrs. Zhou's voice could not help but grow louder, ”Boss, why aren't you going to invite Mang Zhong over!”
Chi Shu was an honest person, when he heard Mrs. Zhou call him, he answered yes and turned to leave.
Lin Guyu's point just so happened to be when she was giving Chi Hang a massage. She was washing clothes in the courtyard this morning when she accidentally overheard her eldest brother's words.
”Chi Hangge,” Lin Guyu massaged Chi Hang forcefully and said hesitantly, ”I heard my sister-in-law tell Second Sister-in-Law this morning that Fourth Brother seemed to have smallpox.”
”The doctor in town said that Fourth Brother seemed to have smallpox.” Lin Guyu calmly repeated himself.
”This?” Chi Hang looked at Lin Guyu in shock, her voice was hoarse, ”Smallpox, someone will die.”
In modern society, smallpox can only be prevented because people are in place and basically all is well.
In ancient times, smallpox was one of the most common infectious diseases with the highest mortality rate.
Lin Guyu pondered whether or not they should change places. If they were to live here, it was very likely that they would catch the disease.
If it was some other disease, Lin Guyu might have gone to take a look, but smallpox, this was a fatal disease, the medical treatment here was not developed, Lin Guyu had no confidence in being able to cure it.
Lin Guyu's massage paused, she looked at Chi Hang expressionlessly.
”I know you know how to treat,” Chi Hang said as he slightly pursed his lips. ”If it's possible, can you go and save Fourth Brother?”
Lin Guyu still did not speak. Chi Hang looked at Lin Guyu's ugly expression and said, ”You're so powerful, but you can pull me back from the King of Hell. Fourth brother, you must also …”
”I'm sorry, I can't help it.” Lin Guyu coldly said, her head lowered, and no longer looked at Chi Hang, as he continued with his hands.
It had been more than two months, and it was said that she had been injured for a hundred days. Chi Hang's body was more or less recovered, but when she pressed with her hand, she discovered that there was no problem with her waist.
”I'm sorry, it was my fault.” Chi Hang's chest felt as though something had blocked it, and she was in so much pain that she didn't know how to vent it out.
Lin Guyu got off Chi Hang's body and sat on the side of the bed as she prepared to put on her shoes.
Dou Sha was originally squatting on the ground and holding onto a tree branch to write, but seeing that Chi Hang had stood up, she quickly stood up and pulled Lin Guyu's hand, ”Mother, I can write, I can write!”
As she was being pulled by Dou Sha's soft and tender hands, the depressed mood in her heart was swept away. She then followed behind Dou Sha.
Dou Sha only knew how to write a few words. It was written in a complicated manner, but it did not affect Lin Guyu's ability to distinguish them.
Chi Hang followed Lin Guyu down from the bed and followed behind.
Looking at the twisted things on the ground, Chi Hang felt a headache.
”One, two,” Dou Sha pointed at the words on the ground with the branch, and said in a sweet voice, ”Three, four, five, six, seven!”
”Wow,” Lin Guyu praised as she patted Dou Sha's head. ”Dou Sha, cool. You've learnt so many words so quickly.”
Chi Hang's face was slightly flushed, he lowered his head and looked at the little girl beside him, and asked hesitantly, ”Gu Yu, can you read?”
”Right.” Lin Guyu calmly replied as she looked at Chi Hang. After thinking for a moment, she asked, ”Can you read?”
Chi Hang raised his hand and touched the back of his head, thinking about it, ”You're really strong.”
Not literate.
Lin Guyu handed over another word of tofu and then went to prepare lunch.
