Chapter 47: A Sudden Fever

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

They had once fantasized that it would be great if they could sleep well on cotton quilts one day. They did not expect it to happen so quickly!

Su Li smiled gently. “Of course it’s true. When have I ever lied to you?”

Su Li changed the things she had bought and added some things. She felt that the house had become brand new.

The window did not look pleasing to the eye, so Su Li repaired it again.

“Not bad!” Su Li nodded in satisfaction at her masterpiece.

The only shortcoming now was that the house was still in tatters. She was really afraid of another storm.

After selling the formula, she was still quite rich with the money she currently had in hand. The first thing Su Li wanted to do was to tear down this small dilapidated house and rebuild it. Otherwise, she would really be afraid to live in it every day!

If there was a strong wind that day, the entire house would be blown away!

However, she could not rush this matter. She did not know what procedures were needed to build a house. She could only wait for He Yufeng to come back.

After finishing everything, Su Li lay on the bed and told the two children a story.

“Mother, why isn’t Father back yet?” He Qingmu asked with his big round eyes.

He Qingyao added, “That’s right. Father wouldn’t have gone out for so long in the past. He’ll be back in five to six days at most!” Su Li asked, “How many days has your father been out?”

“It’s been six days!” He Qingmu raised six fingers.

Su Li really didn’t notice how long He Yufeng had been gone. However, it had been exactly six days.

In the past, He Yufeng would not go out for more than seven days. According to past experience, he should be back tomorrow, right?

Su Li casually made up an excuse and said, “Your father might not have caught any prey. He probably wants to come back a few days later.”

Actually, she didn’t care if He Yufeng came back or not. Now, she and He

Yufeng were more or less like partners who rented a house together, so what

did it have to do with her whether her partner came back!

However, these two little fellows clearly did not think so!

He Qingyao said firmly, “But Father didn’t bring that much dry food. In the past, he would always come back at the agreed time.” He Qingmu said, “That’s right. Will Daddy be eaten by the big cat?”

Su Li: “…” A child’s world is so rich with thoughts.

The more He Qingmu thought about it, the more afraid he became. He hugged Su Li’s waist tightly and said with a sobbing voice, “Mother, what should we do? I don’t want Father to die. We can’t live without him!”

He Qingyao’s face turned pale as he leaned towards Su Li.

Su Li patted their backs. “That won’t happen. Your father is someone who has fought in wars. Nothing can hurt him, let alone die. He will definitely live to be a hundred years old!”

“Really?” He Qingmu looked up at Su Li, waiting for her to give a definite answer.

Su Li nodded vigorously. “Of course. Go to sleep. Your father will be back when you wake up tomorrow morning.”

In the middle of the night, Su Li flipped over in a daze. Her hands seemed to have touched two furnaces.

She subconsciously pushed the stove away, but then she realized that something was wrong. Weren’t He Qingyao and He Qingmu sleeping beside her?

Su Li suddenly opened her eyes and placed her hand on He Qingyao’s forehead. A shocking temperature came from his forehead, and she placed her hand on He Qingmu’s head. His forehead was also shockingly hot.

“Why do you suddenly have a fever?!”

He Qingyao and He Qingmu’s body temperature had already exceeded 38.5 oc. It was useless to use physical cooling now. However, there was no fever medicine for children at home.

Su Li remembered that there were herbs to reduce fever at the back of Chen Xiang’s house. She got out of bed in the dark.

It was silent outside the house. Su Li relied on the starlight and her previous memories to walk towards the back of Chen Xiang’s house.

“Dahai, did you hear anything?” Chen Xiang pushed He Dahai, who was snoring.

He Dahai turned around. “What could happen in the middle of the night? Don’t you know what kind of conditions our family has? Even a normal thief wouldn’t come to our house!”

Chen Xiang tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. The 90 copper coins that Su Li had given her made her a little nervous. Could it be that someone had received the news and specially came to steal her money in the middle of the night?

After Su Li finished picking the herbs, she accidentally stepped on empty air. If not for her quick reaction, she would have fallen into Chen Xiang’s house.

“That was too close!”

“Who is it?” Chen Xiang held a thick stick behind the door and asked.

“It’s me!” Su Li replied.

“Sister?” Chen Xiang was a little puzzled. Why did Su Li come out at night instead of sleeping?

After confirming that it was Su Li, Chen Xiang carefully opened the door to the backyard.

“Aiyo, sister, it’s really you! You don’t know how scared I was just now!”

Chen Xiang patted her chest, looking frightened.

“What are you doing out here at night instead of sleeping?”

Su Li explained, “The children have a fever. I came out to pick some herbs for them to reduce the fever.

Su Li said truthfully, “Maybe they miss their father!”

Chen Xiang was speechless.

Who would believe that?

She felt that Su Li must have not taken good care of the children and caused the children to have a fever. However, she could not say this in front of Su Li.

“But it’s normal for children to have headaches and fevers. Do you need my help?”

Su Li rejected, “No need. Hurry up and sleep. I’ll go back and brew medicine for them. They’ll be fine after drinking the medicine.”

Chen Xiang returned to her room and continued to lie down. He Dahai opened his eyes and looked at her. “Where did you go?”

“To the toilet!” Chen Xiang didn’t tell the truth because she felt that her man was still biased against Su Li.

When Su Li returned home, she boiled the fever medicine for the child.

The fire in the stove was crackling. Su Li looked at the flame in a daze. She remembered that when she was sick in the past, the old man would personally watch over her and brew medicine for her!

However, she could never go back to those days. She wondered if the old man would be sad when he found out that she was gone.

He Qingyao and his brother had such a high fever that they were in a daze. They could no longer get up and drink the medicine themselves.

But it didn’t matter. She was serious about making people drink medicine. She had done this kind of thing many times in her previous life!

Su Li skillfully gave the medicine to He Qingyao and his brother.

“Cough, cough…” He Qingmu spat out a portion of the medicine.

Fortunately, Su Li was already prepared. She held a tattered towel under his neck.

“Mother?” He Qingmu called out to Su Li in a daze.

“It’s alright, Mother is here.”

He Qingmu rubbed against Su Li affectionately.

After a while, the two children seemed to have been fished out of the water. Their clothes were all drenched.

Su Li helped them change into clean clothes. From their body temperature, she could confirm that He Qingyao and his brother’s fever had subsided.

She did not fall asleep immediately. After observing for a while and confirming that the children did not have a recurring fever, she fell asleep in relief.

Before she fell asleep, Su Li scolded He Yufeng in her heart. Before he left, he didn’t tell everyone when he would be back, causing everyone to worry..
