章節 210: Sick
This sudden rain did not stop until the early morning. The air was filled with a thick damp and cold air, and the temperature dropped again. Gulan was stunned for a moment when she opened her eyes, staring at the bright sky. The next moment she realized that it was already dawn. She knew that Xiang Yunjin went out in the middle of the night, but she didn't know anything after that. It seemed that she was really tired due to her period and being caught in the rain. After stretching, Gulan stood up.
Perhaps she stood up too quickly, her vision went dark and her body swayed. Fortunately Xiang Yunjin, who noticed something was wrong, held her up.
"Are you okay?" Xiang Yunjin looked at Gulan worriedly. Thinking about how he had been caught in the rain for so long last night and the cold weather, his eyes became more worried.
"It's okay." As soon as Gulan opened her mouth, she realized that she was not okay. Her throat was so hoarse that she could hardly speak. It seemed that she caught a cold from the rain last night. There were no other obvious symptoms.
"You said it was okay, but now you can't talk anymore. Sit down and I'll boil some water for you." As he spoke, he helped Gulan sit next to the fire and started to get busy.
"It's really nothing. I might have caught a cold. It's not serious. I have medicine and I will be well soon." Looking at Xiang Yunjin who was busy, Gulan spoke hurriedly, but her voice seemed to be hidden in her throat, so soft that it was almost inaudible.
He was almost speechless, yet he still said it was okay. Xiang Yunjin gave him a disapproving look. Xiang Yunjin knew how to boil water, and soon a bowl of water was boiled and poured next to Gulan.
"You'd better talk less. Look at your voice." Xiang Yunjin felt sad for him when he heard his voice.
"Stay here, I'll go get the medicine." Xiang Yunjin glanced at Gulan, turned and walked towards the cart in the yard.
Just as Xiang Yunjin got up and went out, there was a noise coming from the bedroom. After a while, members of the Li family came out one after another. Last night, because of the sudden appearance of a group of people, the adults except the children hardly got any rest in the first half of the night. It was not until midnight when Old Man Li said, "Now that the people have left, everything is fine," that everyone finally went to bed with peace of mind, and they have been sleeping ever since.
"Dad" AnAn ran straight to Gulan as soon as he came out and rushed into Gulan's arms.
"Wake up." Looking at my son's energetic face, I knew he slept well last night.
"Well, Dad, I didn't sleep well last night if you didn't sleep with me." The little guy started to act coquettishly.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true," AnAn nodded very seriously.
"Is that so! It's Dad's fault. I'll correct it." Gulan said seriously, trying to hold back her laughter.
He didn't notice it when his mother spoke two words at a time, but when he spoke more, AnAn finally noticed the difference in his mother's voice, it was so low that she could hardly speak.
"Dad, what's wrong with your voice?" The little guy was nervous.
"It's okay, Dad may have caught a cold. Just take some medicine." Gulan comforted her son. It's because my body is weak. I could soak in the water for a whole night without any problem, but now my body can't stand it after just a little rain. But Gulan forgot that when she was soaking in the water, it was the hot summer season, and now it is almost late autumn, so the conditions are completely different, not to mention that this body is really weak.
"Really?" AnAn's eyes were red. He was really afraid that his mother would get sick. It would make him very uneasy and remind him of his mother in the dilapidated temple.
"It's really okay. If you don't believe me, feel it." Gulan leaned towards her son and saw his uneasiness.
AnAn put his hand on his mother's forehead. It felt a little cool at first, and then warm. It was definitely not as hot as the one in the dilapidated temple.
"Believe it now."
AnAn nodded and looked a little better, but he still hugged his mother tightly.
"Are you really okay?" Old Man Li and his family looked at Gulan worriedly. They all heard Gulan's voice. After all, the house was not that big, and the father and son were not talking in private.
Gulan smiled and shook her head, "It's nothing, maybe I caught a cold, I'll be fine after taking some medicine." Even though het throat was sore, Gulan repeated it again, out of concern for them.
Gulan's voice was very hoarse, but he seemed to be in good spirits, so Old Man Li and the others felt relieved.
While they were talking, Xiang Yunjin, who had found medicine for colds, walked in. He nodded politely to the Li family and started to prepare the medicine, but he seemed to have forgotten that he had never prepared medicine before and did not know how to do it at all. After pouring the medicine into the clay pot, he was dumbfounded by what happened next. In the end, Aunt Li, who saw it all, took it on her own initiative.
"Let me do it," Aunt Li took it and poured three bowls of water into the pot and began to boil it. As she boiled, she said, "Usually, three bowls of water are used to boil medicine. After the water boils, simmer it on low heat until it becomes one bowl of water."
The two of them, one teaching while the other listening, cooperate very well. But as she smelled the unique bitter taste of Chinese medicine, Gulan couldn't help crying in her heart. There were obviously plenty of medicines in her space, so why did she have to drink medicine as bitter as Coptis chinensis?
But looking at the two people working so hard to make the medicine, she definitely couldn't not drink it. If she had known, she would have taken some preventive medicine last night. Before breakfast, Gulan held the typhoid medicine that gave off a strange smell. The resistance and struggle in her eyes were very obvious. She held it in her hand for a long time without putting it in her mouth.
Everyone who saw this smiled. They didn't expect that someone as powerful as Gulan would be afraid of this small bowl of typhoid medicine. His previously tall image suddenly shrank a lot.
Xiang Yunjin had never thought that Gulan would be afraid of a bowl of medicine. He suppressed his laughter and said, "Good medicine tastes bitter but is good for the disease. You wouldn't be afraid to drink it, would you?" All the methods of provoking the opponent were used.
Gulan: "…" Finally, she couldn't help but glare at the culprit. She could have taken the medicine secretly, but the result was...
"Dad, A An has sugar in this. After you drink it, eat the sugar and won't be bitter anymore." AnAn also noticed his mother's resistance, and imitated his mother to coax her.
Gulan: "…"
Forget it. Since her son cares about her so much, Gulan can't bear to let him down. She forced an unpleasant smile at her son, tilted her head back and drank the bowl of medicine in one gulp, suppressing the urge to vomit and swallowing it immediately.
"Daddy is so awesome," AnAn said as he stuffed a candy into Gulan's mouth. The childish compliment made Gulan laugh and cry.
Not long after taking the medicine, she drank a bowl of thick porridge cooked by Daya, ate a few bites of pickles, and after a short rest, the village chief sent someone to deliver a message. As everyone expected, they had to stay one more day due to the heavy rain last night. Fortunately, the scorching sun was shy and only revealed a trace of shadow in the first half of the day. At noon, it finally broke through the thick clouds and revealed its true face. Gulan's two sets of clothes that were soaked have been washed and hung out to dry in the yard.
During this period, the village chief came and learned the situation from Old Man Li. He looked at the dozen or so extra horses in the yard with a puzzled expression, but in the end he didn't say anything. As time goes by, people become more cunning. Although Li Jianghe said that the man was chased away by Gulan and Jin boy. But there was no sign of a fight in the yard. Even if the person was beaten and ran away, how could they be willing to give up the tool they were running away with? It was obviously...
The matter had actually been resolved, and he, as the village chief, pretended not to know anything. The people were taken care of by Gulan and Jin Boy, so the horses naturally belonged to them. He did express some concern about Gulan's illness, and told him to take good care of himself and not to neglect himself anymore.
Gulan nodded and opened her mouth but ultimately said nothing. In just half a day, her voice went from being able to make a few sounds in the early morning to being unable to speak now. Unexpectedly, the symptoms were getting worse and worse.
