Wang family small peasant girl

Chapter 63

The people in the room were all gone at once, and suddenly became deserted, Zhang Yun stood up, comforted Mrs Zhou, and then said: "Father, mother, you go back to the house, you don't need to be wasted by so many people, Just let me watch here."

"You just came back from the fields, and you've been tired for a long time. Let me watch over you." Seeing the deep tiredness on her daughter's face, Mrs. Zhou couldn't help feeling distressed.

"Mom, you forgot whose room this is. I'm going to stay in this room anyway. I just want to watch Xingzi. Besides, you all have a lot of work to do tomorrow. If I'm tired, it's a big deal tomorrow." Go to bed later, I'm young and I can stand it." Zhang Yun hurriedly pushed Zhang Youqing and Zhou out of the house, letting them rest.

Mrs. Zhou couldn't resist her, so she could only agree, and leaned over to look at Zhang Xing again, and then they left the house.The room suddenly became extremely quiet, Zhang Yun leaned over, gently stroked Zhang Xing's face, and murmured: "Get better soon, when you get better, sister will cook delicious food for you."

After muttering about the conversation, Zhang Yun went to test the water temperature in the tub, and when he felt that it was no longer hot, he took a cloth towel and carefully wiped Zhang Xing's body to cool down.

Not long after, the rash on Zhang Xing's body gradually appeared. At first, it was a small red rash like a mosquito bite, rarely just one or two spots, and slowly extended to the arms and legs, almost densely covered, many It swelled into blisters, the color was so red and purple, it looked scary.

After the rash and blisters came out, the high fever still persisted, and he couldn’t rub his body carelessly for fear of breaking the blisters. Zhang Yun could only fetch cold water, soak a cloth towel in water, wring it dry and put it on his forehead, using a cold compress. After repeatedly taking water and cold compresses like this, the night passed quickly.

During this period, Zhang’s family members came to visit many times, but Zhang Yun pushed them away. Even Dr. Lin wanted to stay and help after Zhang Zhang came back, but she refused. It's okay not to rest. At home, she is the only one who has a little leisure time, so it's just right for her to take care of her.

When the fish maw was exposed in the sky, Zhang Yun couldn't bear it any longer, his eyelids drooped, his head nodded, and he didn't know when he fell asleep on the kang.

After all, he couldn't sleep well because of something on his mind. In the dimness, he felt a small movement around him. Zhang Yun woke up suddenly, and suddenly stood upright. He looked on the kang. At some point, Zhang Xing had already opened his eyes, looking very powerless. , a little listless.

"Xingzi, you're awake, don't be afraid, you have chickenpox, Dr. Lin has shown it to you, after taking the medicine, you will be fine soon." Zhang Yun stood up excitedly, leaned over In the past, gently comfort him, let him not be afraid.

Zhang Xing's little face was still red, his eyes opened and closed, and he was listless, but after listening to Zhang Yun's words, he still nodded slightly, and raised his little hand to grab Zhang Yun's hand.

Zhang Yun hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold it, stroked the back of his hand, and said softly: "It's not yet dawn, let's take a rest, good boy, close your eyes."

Being held by Zhang Yun, Zhang Xing probably felt at ease, and slowly closed his eyes again. Zhang Yun kept holding his hand, listening to his breath gradually mix, and felt a lot more relaxed in his heart. In the middle of the day, deep tiredness came, Zhang Yun finally couldn't bear it, and fell asleep again in the chaos.

I don't know how long it took before Zhang Yun woke up, opened his eyes and found that he was not in his own room, but in the east room of his parents. He immediately knew that he had fallen asleep unknowingly, and he was thinking about Zhang Xing, so he quickly Put on your clothes quickly, get off the kang and run out of the house.

When I went out of the house, the sky was already bright, and the yard was quiet, except for a few chickens wandering around in the yard, there was no one there. Just as she was about to run to her own house, a smell of medicine wafted over her, and she hurriedly turned around and ran away. go to the kitchen.

As soon as he ran in, he saw a figure sitting on a bench with his back to the door. After a little identification, he recognized that it was Hong Cheng. There was a decoction stove in front of him, and he was decocting medicine.

"Doctor Xiao Hong, why are you decocting the medicine?" Zhang Yun said and hurried over, Hong Cheng stood up suddenly, turned to look at her, and said with a smile: "Auntie will be watching Xingzi in the room, uncle and the others I went to the field, and I happened to come over, so I helped to decoct the medicine."

"Let me do it." Zhang Yun hurriedly said, wanting to take the fan in his hand and cook the medicine by himself.

"I'm fine, you... go and rest, you're going to be tired and sick, and my aunt and Gu can't take care of you." When Hong Cheng came, he heard Mrs. Zhou mention that Zhang Yun took care of him all night, but he was so tired that he fell asleep. She didn't expect to get up at this moment, afraid that she hadn't rested well, so she spoke.

"Decoction is not tiring, why don't you follow Dr. Lin to see the doctor." Zhang Yun thought, Hong Cheng has a lot of things to do, so it's not easy to bother him.

"When I came here, I informed the master that he has gone to the mountain to collect medicine today, and he will not be in the clinic." Hong Cheng said, then sat down again, and continued to fan the wind to cook the medicine.

Seeing this, Zhang Yun didn't refuse anymore, thanked her, turned around and ran into the room, gently opened the door, there were small voices coming from the room, she hurried in, and saw Mrs Zhou sitting on the kang On the side, talking in a low voice, Zhang Xing on the kang opened his eyes and listened to her.

"Mother, has Xingzi's fever gone?" Zhang Yun quietly walked over to Mrs. Zhou, leaned over to look at Zhang Xing, and asked.

"Not yet, Yun'er, why did you get up so quickly? You won't rest for a while. You've been busy all night, and you're exhausted." Seeing her daughter, Mrs. Zhou hurriedly pulled her to sit down, feeling sorry for her all night hard work. .

"It's okay, I've had enough rest." Zhang Yun replied, stretched out his hand, touched Zhang Xing's forehead, it was still hot, and said anxiously: "Why haven't you retreated yet, when will it be possible?" OK."

"Chickenpox always takes a few days to burn. You and Cheng Zi came here like this when we were young. Doctor Xiaohong just came here, and he said the same thing, but it doesn't matter. When the pox is suffocated and scabbed, the fever will naturally subside. "There are two children in the family who have had chickenpox, and Zhou has some experience, so he won't be so flustered anymore.

Zhang Yun doesn't remember if he ever had chickenpox, it probably happened when he was very young, and he has no memory for a long time. Hearing what Zhou said, and seeing her expression is quite stable, I think she should be fine, so I feel at ease. few.

"Xingzi, are you hungry? My sister will cook you something to eat." After Zhang Yun felt relieved, he asked Zhang Xing softly. He hadn't eaten for such a long time, so he must be hungry.

Zhang Xing nodded, and said: "Sister, I'm a little hungry." Hearing his slightly hoarse voice, Zhang Yun felt sad again, nodded lightly, and said to Zhou: "Mother, I'll go Cook some porridge for Xingzi in the kitchen." After speaking, he left the house.

As soon as Zhang Yun took a few steps, someone came in from outside the fenced yard and called out, "Yun'er, how is Xingzi?" Zhang Yun saw that it was Chang Juan, followed by Chang Man.

Seeing Chang Man, Zhang Yun couldn't help but feel a little awkward. She wasn't used to being seen as fragile and broken. Even though the kitchen was dark at that time, he couldn't see his appearance clearly.

Regardless of being awkward, Zhang Yun greeted him anyway, and said to Chang Juan: "The fever hasn't subsided yet, but Mother said that chickenpox will take a few days to burn, so it's okay, you go in and sit down, I won't accompany you. I have to cook some porridge for Xingzi, he has been so hungry and hasn't eaten anything."

"It's just right, I just brought food. My second aunt said that if you have acne and fever, it's best to eat paste made of calla taro and purslane. When our family had chickenpox when we were young, we always ate this." Juan pushed Chang Man next to her, and Chang Man hurriedly handed over the basket in her hand.

Zhang Yun took the basket, and saw a bunch of water chestnuts and a whole handful of purslane in the basket, with drops of water still on the young leaves, "I wanted to bring it after it was cooked, but I was afraid that Xingzi would wake up." I wanted to eat, so I hurried over here, these purslane were just picked by me and Brother Manzi at the foot of Qingtunling Mountain, it will still be tender, you can burn it quickly."

Zhang Yun nodded, and went to the kitchen with a basket in his hand. After walking a few steps, Hong Cheng came out of the kitchen and called, "The medicine is ready." Zhang Yun hurriedly walked over after hearing that.

Seeing that Zhang Yun picked up the things, Chang Man saw that he was in good spirits, and wanted to turn around and leave, but when he saw Hong Cheng coming out of the kitchen, he suddenly turned around and headed towards the kitchen, saying Said: "Yun'er, you haven't cooked calla taro and purslane paste before, do you want me to teach you, my mother often cooks this."

Chang Man rushed to the door of the kitchen in two or three steps, just cut off Zhang Yun and Hong Cheng's voice. It will burn."

Zhang Yun didn't agree, but Chang Man still stood still. Hong Cheng glanced at him, and said to Zhang Yun: "You want to cook porridge, and I'll take the fried medicine to the house."

Zhang Yun was about to thank him, but Chang Man suddenly squeezed between Zhang Yun and Hong Cheng, blocked Zhang Yun with his back, and said to Hong Cheng, "The doctor is so busy, you don't need to do this kind of trivial matter, just let me do it."

As soon as Zhang Yun said this, he felt embarrassed immediately, and couldn't help being annoyed, so he kicked Chang Man on the hind leg, pushed him away with his hand, and said, "I don't need you, I can make the medicine myself." Apologetically, he said to Hong Cheng: "Doctor Xiao Hong, there's no need, you've already cooked the medicine for me, and I'll do the rest myself, you can do your work."

Hong Cheng didn't show it on his face, but his back was stiff. After a moment of silence, he said, "Actually, you don't need to be so polite. Xingzi's chickenpox should be from a village outside when he helped distribute the medicine last time." Yes, I should take care of him, it's my duty." As he spoke, he turned around and went back into the kitchen.

At this moment, Chang Man's face became a little ugly, and he wanted to run into the kitchen, but was stopped by Zhang Yun, who stopped him and said in a low voice: "Have you made enough trouble, don't worry about my affairs."

When Zhang Yun said this, Chang Man was stunned, his steps stopped abruptly, and his eyes were fixed on Zhang Yun. Chang Juan, who was beside her, saw that the situation was not right, so she rushed up and grabbed Chang Man's arm, saying: "Man Brother Zi, the second uncle is in the field, I'm afraid he will be too busy, so let's wait for you to go over, let's go back together."

Chang Juan's words brought Chang Man back to his senses. The field is really busy at the moment, and he planned to rush back to the field after delivering the things, but he didn't expect this to happen. He just felt something piercing his heart, which made him feel a dull pain.

"Let's go, Brother Manzi." Chang Juan was really afraid that Chang Man would be too sad, so she hurriedly pulled him hard again, Chang Man started to move, looked at Zhang Yun again, and followed Chang Juan.

"Xiaojuan, you stay here, I have something to tell you." Zhang Yun suddenly called Chang Juan, Chang Juan turned to look at her, then at Chang Man, just about to say something, Chang Man moved his arm, So she broke away from Chang Juan, and ran away without looking back.
