The Strong Wife from Peasant Family (MTL - EDITED VERSION)

Chapter 8

Fatty Huang glared at him angrily for a few moments, then sneered: "Since you suspect my medical skills, then why are you so eager to see me?"

Zhou Manager raised his eyebrows and glanced at Fatty Huang, before opening his mouth casually, "If it wasn't for the fact that Dr. Xu has yet to come back from his home visit, and if I feared delaying the child's illness, who would want to see you? Outsiders know this already, don't you know? Your medical techniques are clearly inferior to his."

Fatty Huang hated people who compared his medical skills to theirs. He angrily pointed at Zhou Manager and glared at him, telling him to scram.

Liu Zhimo pulled Liu Zhiyan and deeply kowtowed to Zhou Manager and the medicine boy, thanking them for their help.

Liu Zhimo knew, if the medicine boy did not go to look for Zhou Manager, Zhou Manager would not know about his matter.

"Young Master Li, you're too polite. Hurry and get up." Zhou Manager reached out his hands to help the two of them up, then said amiably, "It's late in the night, your little sister just had a fever. You two can stay here for the night, and go back tomorrow morning."

Liu Zhimo thanked Zhou Manager, who waved his hand and let the medicine boy bring them to the resting beds. He turned around and went back home.

Afraid that Liu Zhirou would get hot again, Li Qingling and Liu Zhimo took turns to look after her. Fortunately, she did not get feverish and she woke up looking much better.

After bidding farewell to the medicine boy, they picked up the oxcart and rushed home.

The villagers all got up early to work, and when they saw Liu Zhimo driving Li Qingling and the other two back, they all curiously asked him where he was going.

Liu Zhimo patiently answered their questions. Everyone listened to him and comforted him before they went back to work.

Li Qingling let out a light breath. Seeing that Liu Zhirou had woken up, she hugged her and asked the girl if she was feeling uncomfortable anywhere.

She shrank back into Li Qingling's embrace, her small hands wrapped around her neck as she called out softly, "Big sister..."

"Hmm? With big sister here, do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?" Li Qingling touched her forehead, feeling that it was normal, only then did she relax.

She wrapped the blanket around Liu Zhirou again, afraid that she would be hit by the cold.With that, Liu Zhiyan woke up. He opened his eyes in a daze and saw that Liu Zhirou had woken up.

Liu Zhirou turned her head to the side and smiled at Liu Zhiyan, then extended her hand for Liu Zhiyan to hug her. Liu Zhiyan hurriedly went over, "Little sister, is your head still hurting?"

"Pain?" Liu Zhirou tilted her head to the side to think, then shook her head, "It doesn't hurt."

"As long as it doesn't hurt." Liu Zhiyan was relieved, this time his sister's fever had scared him. He vowed to take care of his sister more in the future, so as to not let her get sick.

When they returned to the Liu Family residence, Li Qingling heard Li Qingfeng shouting for Mrs. Zhao just as the ox-cart stopped, "Mother, Sister and the others are back." As he shouted, he ran over to where Li Qingling was. Looking at Liu Zhirou who was in her arms, he asked, "Is she alright?"

"Alright." Li Qingling laughed and gave Liu Zhirou a hug. She took off the blanket on the ox-cart and carried Liu Zhirou into her room.

When she came out, Mrs. Zhao had already cooked some porridge and came over, "Since you have come back so early, you must be hungry. Hurry up and eat," She pushed the porridge in front of everyone.
