Chapter 246: Sunburn

Bai Zhi smiled: “How come there’s no salary for people who work? Let’s not talk about this first, Ruer’s illness cannot be dragged any more. Let’s go now.”

Awu answered with a heavy tone, then picked up the baggage on the ground. When he lowered his head, his tears couldn’t stop from falling.

He thought he had already reached the bottom, but he didn’t expect that, in his desperate situation, he will gain a new life.

The carriage was very big, even four people sitting inside won’t squeeze each other. However, Awu refused to sit inside. He wanted to change position with Hu Feng to drive.

Hu Feng was afraid that he wouldn’t recognize the road, so he let him sit on his side to recognized the road first. Then said that he will have a lot of chance to drive in the future.

Back to the Huangtou Village, Bai Zhi didn’t try to explain. She let Hu Feng take Awu first to the front house. Then, she brought the mother and daughter in their cabin house to the backyard.

“Aunt, this is where my mother and I lived. It’s a little small, but we can still squeeze each other. You and Ru’er will stay here for a while.”

When Zhao Lan saw that the child was seriously sick. She was also moved and couldn’t help but sympathize. She took Awu’s wife’s hand and said: “Don’t worry about anything, just stay here.”

Awu’s wife nodded her head with reddened eyes: “Thank you, thank you.”

Zhao Lan smiled and patted her hand: “No need to thank us. We are all hardworking people. Only by helping each other, we can live a good life. Later on, call me Lan’er. What is your name?”

Awu’s wife wiped the tears away from her eyes. Then, she looked at Zhao Lan and said: “My name is Sue, Zhao Sue.”

Zhao Lan smiled and said: “My surname is also Zhao, maybe we are relatives!”

While Zhao Lan and Zhao Sue were talking and not paying attention. She injected antipyretic to Ru’er.

The medicines in the first aid kit all had a special effect. It’s better than any ordinary medicine. It can quickly relieve the fever, but there was also a side effect. After the rapid effect, there will be 2 to 3 recurrent fever. However, they will not reach 40 degrees. With this, it can be said that she also passed the dangerous phase. When the fever reoccurs, she can give her acupuncture treatment, and there will be no more side effect.

After packing her things, Bai Zhi said to her mother and Zhao Sue: “I’m going out and looked for people who can help us to harvest melons. Boss Chen, who eats my melon dishes this morning, said that he will send people tomorrow morning. We cannot delay the harvest.”

Zhao Sue immediately asked: “What do you want me to do? I can help you with anything.”

Bai Zhi smiled and said: “Aunt, what you should do now is to take care of Ru’er. When Ru’er gets better, naturally, there will be work for you to do.”

Zhao Sue was also worried about her daughter. After hearing Bai Zhi’s words, her tears fell once again.

Bai Zhi hurried away and strolled around the village. She called two women, who can work fast and let them collect the potatoes.

Awu knew that she was going to work in the field. He remembered what she said earlier, so he followed behind her. Bai Zhi was helpless and had no choice but to accept his help.

Hu Feng drove the carriage and they all went to the fields together.

When they arrived at the potato field, Bai Zhi rolled up her sleeves and ready herself to dig the ground. However, Hu Feng dragged her over under a tree.

“What are you doing? Let go of me.”

Hu Feng pushed her to the tree and said: “Just stay here, don’t come out under the shed. If you had a sunburn, who do you think will marry you in the future.”

Bai Zhi smiled, this guy, he clearly has a good intention, but he just refused to say something nice.

Awu laughed from afar and said: “Zhi’er, just listen to Hu Feng. With your small body, I’m afraid you don’t have much strength. We’ll be able to finish this soon.”

The other two women also followed the advice: “Yes, you don’t need to dig melons. With the four of us, it won’t take that long to dig out these melons.”
