Chapter 163: Visiting for medical treatment
The light stimulated Xu Lanhua's eyes and she felt very uncomfortable. She had to close her eyes again, and then opened them after a while.
The sun is out?!
Only then did Xu Lanhua realize that she had overslept. She quickly got up and muttered: "It's over, my parents are going to beat me again..."
After she finished speaking, she later realized that she was not at her own home, but at her third aunt's home.
Looking at the unfamiliar room and feeling the warm atmosphere, Xu Lanhua sat on the bed in a daze, her legs covered with a thin quilt from last night.
Oops! She didn't sleep in on purpose... Will the third aunt think she is a lazy girl?
If the third aunt really mistakenly thought she was lazy, would she hate her?
Xu Lanhua's heart was very complicated and confusing. She even dared not get up and open the door to go out. She was afraid of seeing her third aunt's eyes that hated her. She was afraid that her third aunt would say that she was a "lazy". She was afraid that her third aunt would not like her...
"Dong dong dong." There was a knock on the door.
Xu Lanhua was so frightened that her breath suffocated, she clutched the quilt tightly, and did not dare to make a sound, her eyes were slightly red.
She was very worried that what she heard was the third aunt blaming her. If the third aunt was such a good person, and everyone was disappointed in her, then... what was she still doing? No one loved her...
"Sister Lanhua, are you awake? Auntie said you're ready to have lunch." Erbao's voice came.
But... can we have lunch? Xu Lanhua stared at the door blankly and did not respond, because she was thinking wildly now.
Erbao said it was time to have lunch, which meant that Third Aunt would not blame him, right?
After hesitating for a long time, Xu Lanhua was about to say that she was awake when she heard Xu Dabao's voice coming from outside.
"How's it going? Is Sister Lanhua awake?"
"Probably not, I didn't hear a response." Erbao replied.
Xu Dabao said: "Then let's go eat first. Anyway, mother said that Sister Lanhua couldn't sleep well when she was at her home. If Sister Lanhua doesn't respond, let Sister Lanhua continue to sleep. She will stay
Order some food for Sister Lanhua."
"Okay, let's wash our hands and eat first."
As the footsteps faded away, Xu Lanhua pursed her lips and tears appeared in her eyes again.
It turns out... the third aunt doesn't dislike her, nor does she blame her for sleeping in. Instead, she is worried that she won't sleep well at home...
Thinking of this, Xu Lanhua's worries disappeared instantly. She raised her hand to wipe away her tears, put on her clothes, and gently opened the door.
Just at this time, Su Xiaoxia walked out of the kitchen carrying lunch.
Seeing Xu Lanhua wake up, Su Xiaoxia smiled and said: "Lanhua is awake? Go and wash up quickly, and then let's eat."
After finishing speaking, Su Xiaoxia carried the food into the east room.
Xu Lanhua looked at Su Xiaoxia's back, slightly raising the corners of her mouth, and a happy smile appeared on her face.
The third aunt is the best third aunt in the world! She is enough to compare with my grandma!
Whether it was before or after the meal, Xu Lanhua was a little nervous, worried that everyone would ask her why she slept in late.
As a result, no one asked me about it long after I finished the meal. It seemed that sleeping in was a normal thing in this family and no one cared.
Su Xiaoxia originally wanted to go to the fields to see how the rice would grow without the blessing of spiritual spring water, but as soon as she approached the courtyard gate, there was a knock on the courtyard door.
"Xiaoxia, is Xiaoxia at home? Sister-in-law Shen, is your Xiaoxia at home?"
"I'm here." Su Xiaoxia responded, and then opened the door, only to find several people outside.
Looking at everyone, Su Xiaoxia asked doubtfully: "Seventh uncle? What's wrong?"
The person standing outside is the seventh uncle, who is the most virtuous and respected among the elders in the village and is fifty years old. Behind the seventh uncle is a couple, both in their thirties.
She remembered that the man in the couple was named Xie Rong, the woman was named Xu Xiaoli, and Xu Xiaoli was the seventh uncle's youngest daughter.
The two people had sunken eye sockets and looked haggard, especially Xu Xiaoli, whose eyes were red and swollen.
It can be seen that the couple has been worried about something recently, and Xu Xiaoli has been crying for a long time, which is why her eyes are so swollen in broad daylight.
The seventh uncle stepped forward, sighed deeply, and asked haggardly: "My third wife, I heard that you have medical skills, are you free now?
"My grandson is sick, and I don't know what's going on. He went to see the doctor. The doctor said he just had a stomachache and that he would be fine after taking medicine, but he didn't feel better at all after taking medicine..."
Xu Xiaoli on the side couldn't help it, tears streaming down her face, and she said with a thick nasal voice:
"Xiaoxia, can you come with us to our house? My son...he can't eat anything now. In just a few days, he has become extremely thin and screams in pain every day..."
Hearing this, Su Xiaoxia nodded, "Okay, I'll go with you, and I'll tell my mother first."
After saying that, Su Xiaoxia turned around and went to find Shen Lan, saying that she was going to the seventh uncle's house, and that the second and third treasures also wanted to go.
Thinking of a village, she took her with her, and Xu Lanhua also wanted to go with her because she wanted to take care of the Three Treasures.
Afterwards, a large group of people left Su Xiaoxia's house.
Along the way, Su Xiaoxia asked some simple questions.
Although Xu Xiaoli was married to Xie Rong, she lived with Xie Rong in the village because she was reluctant to let go of her seventh uncle living alone in the village.
Xie Rong's parents had passed away long ago. Xie Rong loved Xu Xiaoli very much and was willing to stay in Xujiacun for Xu Xiaoli.
They had been married for many years, but they had no children until they were nearly 30 years old when they had a son. He was like a baby. The couple loved and pampered their grandson very much. Even their seventh uncle also loved his grandson very much.
The seventh uncle also has two sons. However, these two sons married wives from other places and stayed in other places. They have not returned home for many years...
After arriving at the seventh uncle's house, Su Xiaoxia told Lanhua to just play in the yard with her second and third treasures and not to go to dangerous places like ponds. The three children also nodded obediently.
After walking into the house, Su Xiaoxia saw a five-year-old boy lying on the bed in pain and starting to roll again. He was one year younger than Xu Dabao and Erbao.
"Ah! My son..." Xu Xiaoli walked over quickly and sat beside the bed, feeling distressed, "What happened to the pillar? Does it hurt? Where does it hurt?"
Xu Xiaoli's son Xie Xiaozhu was so painful that his facial features were a little distorted. He cried out in pain and said: "Mom, it hurts, my stomach hurts... It hurts..."
After shouting, Xie Xiaozhu whispered again, humming, just like an injured kitten.
Seeing this, Su Xiaoxia frowned and walked over quickly.
The seventh uncle and Xie Rong both watched nervously, praying in their hearts that God would not torture their grandson and son like this. These children were obtained with great difficulty and should not suffer such a punishment.
"You put the child down first, and I'll check it out." Su Xiaoxia said to Xu Xiaoli.
Hearing this, Xu Xiaoli put the child on the bed, then stood up and moved away from her. She covered her mouth and shed tears, her heart aching with distress.
Su Xiaoxia sat by the bed and examined Xie Xiaozhu, with unbearable eyes.
This boy is the same as the three little ones in the family. He is both skinny and small. He is even more miserable than the three little ones. There is an abnormal whiteness under his sallow face, without any rosy color.
