Chapter 196: Go Back First

‘Ah Tao, are you sure?” Eldest Brother Shen looked at the narrow path covered in a thick layer of snow in front of him and narrowed his eyes suspiciously. ‘Tm afraid this path is not easy to walk!”

Ji Zhao pursed her lips and did not say anything else. She remembered that in her dream, Second Brother was killed on such a narrow path, so they had to take a risk.

‘Alright, listen to Ah Tao!” Shen Dashan rubbed his frozen hands and said firmly, “Let’s follow this path and find Second Brother!”

The carriage swayed all the way, and the hooves kicked up snowflakes that had already melted into water.

Ji Zhao lifted a corner of the curtain and let the cold wind blow past her face. Only then did she feel completely awake.

It was almost noon. Eldest Brother Shen, who was driving the carriage, was really a little tired.

‘Father, Third Sister-in-law, we’ve been going for more than half a day. Shall we rest first?”

‘We can’t rest!” Ji Zhao said forcefully.

This matter concerned Second Brother Shen’s life and death, so they had to continue on their way.

‘But the path we’re taking isn’t the same path that Second Brother took to return home!” It was the dead of winter and they had been traveling outside. For some reason, Eldest Brother Shen became angry. “Father, are we going to travel like fools just because Third Brother had a nightmare?”

‘And Ah Tao, I’m really grateful for your help in the Shen Ji Pastry Shop for the past half a year, but it’s winter. Can you play with me like a monkey? We’ve been rushing for more than half a day, but we haven’t even drunk a sip of water!’

Anger rose in Eldest Brother Shen’s heart for no reason.

Shen Dashan, who was sitting in the carriage, did not say a word. In the end, he simply jumped off the carriage.

‘Father?” Eldest Brother Shen cried out in alarm. “What are you doing?”

Shen Dashan did not even look at him. Instead, he waved at Ji Zhao. “Ah Tao, come down too.’

Although she did not know what was going on, Ji Zhao still obediently did as she was told.

‘Father!” Brother Shen stomped his feet anxiously. “The snow on the ground is too thick. Look, your and Ah Tao’s shoes are wet!”

‘The cold starts from your feet. What if all of you catch a cold?”

‘You can go back first.” Shen Dashan waved at him and said calmly, “Ah Tao and I will continue walking. If you feel tired and hungry, you can go back and rest first.’

‘How can that do?” Eldest Brother Shen anxiously wiped the sweat off his forehead. “Father, I know I was wrong. Don’t be angry, okay?”

“I’m not angry.” Shen Dashan glanced at him and said softly, ‘Go back. You can go back and help your mother. Ah Tao and I will continue walking.”

“This…” Eldest Brother Shen looked apprehensive and hesitant.

‘Father, Big Brother, look, isn’t that Second Brother?” Just as the atmosphere was in a deadlock, the sharp-eyed Ji Zhao suddenly saw the figure in the

distance and called out anxiously, “Second Brother!”

Second Brother Shen did not expect to hear his family’s call in the wilderness. He hurriedly wanted to rush over, but he slipped and fell into a deep pit!

‘Father, Second Brother fell!”

‘Quick, let’s go take a look!” Shen Dashan’s heart suddenly sank as he hurriedly jogged forward!

At that moment, Second Brother Shen fell headfirst into the deep depression and kept struggling!

‘Son!” Shen Dashan rushed over and grabbed Second Brother Shen’s ankle anxiously.

At the same time, Eldest Brother Shen rushed over and grabbed Second Brother Shen’s other ankle.

Ji Zhao also helped from the side. The three of them spent a lot of effort and finally pulled the dying Second Brother Shen up.

At this moment, Second Brother Shen had choked on a lot of ice water. Even his lips had turned purple.

‘Son! Don’t scare me. Don’t scare me!” Shen Dashan shouted as he watched Second Brother Shen breathe heavily.

‘Second Brother!” Eldest Brother Shen’s eyes turned red.

‘Dad, Big Brother, move aside!” Ji Zhao used all her strength to pull the two of them to the side. Then, she carefully checked Shen Erlang’s condition. Without hesitation, she placed her hands on her chest and began to perform CPR on him!

‘Ah Tao, what are you doing?” Eldest Brother Shen questioned sharply when he saw Ji Zhao’s actions.

‘Big Brother, if you want to save Second Brother, quickly pinch his nose and help him breathe!” Ji Zhao replied anxiously and sped up her actions.

Cough—

Second Brother Shen, who was on the verge of death, suddenly made a sound. Then, he spat out a large mouthful of ice water and opened his eyes with difficulty.

‘Big Brother? Father?”

‘Good boy, you’re finally awake! Thank God!” Shen Dashan excitedly helped Second Brother Shen up from the ground. ‘Son, carry your Second Brother quickly. Let’s go home!”

‘Wait!” Ji Zhao pulled off Second Brother Shen’s outer robe without any explanation and threw the heavy bag into the pit just now.

‘Ah Tao, you…” Second Brother Shen coughed again.

‘Could it be that Second Brother wants to attract a fatal disaster?” Ji Zhao questioned with a sharp gaze. ‘INO matter what’s in that bag, it’s not as important as Second Brother’s life! Second Brother, have you ever thought about what Second Sister-in-law will do if something really happens to you?

What will happen to Thuangzhuang?”

Ji Zhao’s words enlightened Second Brother Shen.

‘Dad, Big Brother, let’s go home quickly.”

When dusk approached, the carriage finally returned to the Shen family’s courtyard.

“Why are you only back now?” Seeing that they had returned safely, Zhao Lanhua hurriedly went to the kitchen and brought over several large bowls of ginger soup. ‘Quick, drink the ginger soup while it’s hot!”

After Ji Zhao drank the ginger soup, she immediately returned to her room to change her clothes.

An hour later, Shen Yao looked at Ji Zhao, who was smiling brightly. He slowly curled his lips. “Ah Tao, thank you.

Ji Zhao could not help but sneeze. In the end, under Shen Yao’s gentle gaze, she fell to the ground.

‘Ah Tao!” Shen Yao exclaimed and got out of bed anxiously!

Another hour passed.

Shen Yao looked anxiously at the silent Immortal Crane and asked nervously, ‘Senior, is Ah Tao alright?”

“It’s a low fever.” Immortal Crane thought for a moment and quickly wrote down a prescription. “Let’s follow the prescription and grab the medicine first. When the medicine is brewed, let her drink it. If nothing goes wrong, the heat will subside tomorrow morning.’

‘Thank you, Senior.”

‘You’re welcome!” Immortal Crane waved his hand indifferently and returned to his room to rest.

Shen Yao looked at Ji Zhao lying beside him, his eyes filled with heartache..
