Aunt Hua, seeing the Village Chief, quickly shouted, "Oh, it’s good that you’re here. My family’s Hehua has a stomachache. Please get a talisman quick."
Director Du, hearing that soone was sick, hurriedly stepped out, "Auntie, I’m the Doctor. Soone in your family is sick, right? Let take a look."
"What? No, no need for a doctor... my Hehua is just feeling a bit unwell, so Talismanic Water will do," Aunt Hua said as she brushed past Director Du, pushing the Village Chief to go get the talisman.
Director Du wanted to persuade further, but Qin Xiao held him back, "Let’s assess the situation first, don’t jump in rashly."
Director Du sighed helplessly; what kind of people are these!
Aunt Hua quickly took the talisman and ran off in delight, leaving Director Du unable to catch up even though he wanted to follow and see.
In the Gu Family Village, the winding paths are quite nurous, and if you’re not familiar with the roads, it’s truly difficult to navigate.
Unable to catch Aunt Hua, Director Du could only return to the wheat drying ground with Qin Xiao in resignation.
Upon returning to the wheat drying yard, Qin Xiao’s phone rang; it turned out Feng Ye and his group had arrived, so Qin Xiao quickly went with Village Chief Gu to et them.
Director Du returned to the wheat drying yard and recounted the situation just now. Upon hearing this, everyone present frowned, questioning what kind of people these were?
Xiao Li frowned and pondered, "Director Du, soon we’ll be distributing supplies to the villagers. Could you check if Aunt Hua cos around? If she does, please quietly tell . I want to find a way to follow her ho and have a look at the situation."
Director Du nodded, "Okay, I’ll keep an eye out."
After a short while, Qin Xiao returned with Feng Ye. Upon seeing the number of people Feng Ye brought along, Xiao Li felt sowhat relieved; the more our own people, the better.
If conflict were to truly arise, having more people would provide so assurance.
Feng Ye brought supplies, and Qin Xiao asked Village Chief Gu to notify the villagers to co and collect the items.
Soon, quite a few people arrived, though mostly it was so half-grown kids sent to pick up things.
Of course, there were one or two adults who ca, and Aunt Hua indeed ca herself.
Actually, Aunt Hua didn’t want to co, but there were just her and her granddaughter Hehua at ho. Others in the family had gone out to work elsewhere and were not at ho.
Hehua was in bed with a stomachache and couldn’t get up, so Aunt Hua had to co herself.
Upon seeing Aunt Hua, Director Du imdiately inford Xiao Li, who quickly walked over to grab a distribution item for the villagers and said to Aunt Hua, "Auntie, I see you’re supporting your waist; is your waist uncomfortable? How about I help you bring things back ho?"
"Oh, that would be great. Thank you, young lady," Aunt Hua replied with a smile and turned to lead the way.
She had been bending over all night and morning rubbing Hehua’s back, so her waist wasn’t feeling well.
Seeing Xiao Li going to help carry things over, Qin Xiao hurriedly joined in, "Let do it!"
Aunt Hua hesitated upon seeing Qin Xiao co over too, but Xiao Li quickly said, "Auntie, this is my husband. He cares for and doesn’t want to tire myself out."
Upon hearing, Aunt Hua laughed, "You’re blessed to have soone who cares, dear girl. But it’s just and my granddaughter at ho, having a man over is inconvenient, so I’ll still carry it myself."
As Aunt Hua was about to reach for the items, Xiao Li blocked her with her body, "It’s okay, Auntie. We as a couple will help carry them back for you. Your waist is bad, don’t carry heavy things."
Since Xiao Li said this, Aunt Hua couldn’t really refuse and just smiled, leading them back ho.
The trio wandered through the village for quite a while before reaching Aunt Hua’s house. Upon arrival at the doorstep, Aunt Hua hurriedly opened the door, allowing Xiao Li and Qin Xiao inside.
As soon as she entered, Xiao Li closely observed, trying to see where the sick person was.
But as it turns out, this was the main hall, and aside from a dining table and a few chairs, there was nothing else.
Luckily, though they couldn’t see anyone, they could hear voices; there were occasional sobs coming from the inner room.
Listening, Xiao Li asked, "Auntie, who’s crying there?"
Aunt Hua responded casually, "It’s my granddaughter, started having a stomachache last night; but it’s nothing major. I already fed her so Talismanic Water, she’ll be fine soon.
By the way, when I went to get the talisman at the altar, I t your husband there!"
Qin Xiao quickly replied, "Seems so, didn’t pay much attention."
Xiao Li softly said, "I heard her cry, seems quite severe; Auntie, would you like to go in and check?"
"No big deal, she’s just delicate, has always been like this since childhood, crying over minor issues!" Aunt Hua said indifferently.
"Grandma! My stomach hurts a lot! Worse than before," Hehua from inside overhearing the conversation called out, knowing her Grandma had returned.
Aunt Hua laughed as she said, "You both sit and have a drink, I’ll go have a look."
Xiao Li quickly responded, "Auntie, since I’m not busy, how about I accompany you inside to take a look?"
Upon entering the room, Xiao Li saw a girl about thirteen or fourteen years old, pale and lying on the bed crying in pain.
Aunt Hua soothed her as soon as she ca in, "Hehua, it hurts, right? Just bear it a little longer."
As soon as she finished speaking, the girl on the bed sobbed and then fainted.
Xiao Li, seeing this, hurriedly went to apply pressure on the human acupoint. Aunt Hua, seeing the girl fainting, panicked as well.
"Oh dear, what’s happening? How co she fainted?"
Xiao Li pressed the acupoint with one hand and took her pulse with the other; the heartbeat was sowhat fast.
Fortunately, shortly afterward, Hehua slowly ca to, imdiately frowning and crying out in pain.
Xiao Li quickly pulled out a stethoscope from her coat pocket to listen to Hehua’s abdon.
She had refrained from wearing a white coat, fearing Aunt Hua’s rejection, but kept the stethoscope in her coat pocket.
Aunt Hua, seeing Xiao Li with a stethoscope, realized she was indeed a Doctor. Though she hadn’t seen a Doctor often, she could always spot them carrying stethoscopes.
At this mont, Aunt Hua did not object to Xiao Li examining the child. After all, the child had fainted; under normal circumstances, it would be ti to consider taking the child to a hospital.
Thinking of hospital visits, Aunt Hua quickly glanced at the calendar hanging on the wall, seeing it marked "auspicious for dical visits," she felt relieved.
Xiao Li listened for a while then lifted the girl’s clothes, tapped on her stomach. "Auntie, I’m a Doctor. Our team is here to provide free dical treatnt to villagers. The child seems to have acute gastroenteritis, and needs an infusion quickly.
If you agree, I’ll take her to the wheat drying yard for treatnt, okay?"
"Okay, okay, okay! Thanks to you." Aunt Hua readily agreed, after all, it was auspicious for dical visits today, and it was free treatnt – what’s not to agree?
Unexpectedly, Aunt Hua was so agreeable, Xiao Li’s prepared persuasion was stuck in her throat.
Who cares, as long as she agreed. Xiao Li quickly called Qin Xiao in to carry the child to the wheat drying yard.
Qin Xiao had been listening outside, and upon Xiao Li’s call, he imdiately ca in, picked up the child, and rushed out.
