Erzhu thought for a moment and decided that the right opportunity would be tomorrow to return the key to Apricot, and before that, he had fantasized about one day using this key to open Apricot's room, and it seemed that this opportunity would not be available again.
He yawned, had been busy taking care of the apricots in the middle of the night, and now felt sleepy, his eyelids huddled together, covered the apricot quilt, smelled the fragrance emanating from the quilt, closed his eyes and slept.
The next day, Erzhu got up very early, he was still worried about the apricot disease, went to the apricot room, saw the apricot asleep, quiet like a baby, the high fever had subsided, he quietly sat down on the edge of the kang, looking at the apricots.
Erzhu smiled a little, gently dragged the apricot on the horn, and went to the apricot garden, Kuroko was still in the apricot garden, did not know what it was like, pulled it back, and fed it well.
On this afternoon, Chen Minde came on time with the medicine box, as soon as he entered the courtyard door, Kuroko pounced on him as if he had seen an enemy, frightening Chen Minde and screaming, erzhu hurried out and pulled Kuroko in his hand.
Erzhu said, "Dr. Chen, didn't you scare you?" ”
Chen Minde wiped the sweat from his head and said with some trepidation: "My mother, your dog is so powerful, I almost let it bite." ”
Erzhu tied Kuroko to a tree in the courtyard, Kuroko still barked wildly at Chen Minde, Erzhu scolded Kuroko a few times, Kuroko calmed down, and when Erzhu left, it became vigorous and screamed again.
Erzhu accompanied Chen Minde to the apricot room, and the apricot leaned against the wall, smiled at Chen Minde, and said, "You are here." ”
Chen Minde put down the medicine box and asked, "How do you feel now?" ”
Apricot said, "It's much better now, but last night's fever was terrible." ”
Chen Minde took out the thermometer, flicked it with his hand, and said, "Oh, that's a light dose of medicine, today I will add a little more medicine to you." Come, take your temperature first. ”
Apricot took the thermometer and clamped it under her armpits.
Chen Minde said: "Although it is a simple cold, if you do not grasp the treatment, it will develop into pneumonia, I have seen a patient before, did not treat it in time, and finally burned out the lungs, sent to the town people dare not collect, died." ”
Erzhu said in surprise, "So serious?" Or I'll take my sister-in-law to the town hospital. ”
Chen Minde smiled and said, "Didn't I come?" This little illness is still difficult for me, you can rest assured, I will cure your sister-in-law's illness. ”
Apricot took the thermometer from her armpit, handed it to Chen Minde, and asked, "How much?" ”
Chen Minde looked at it and said, "Oh, 37 degrees 5, it is close to normal body temperature, and two more days of injections will get better." ”
Chen Minde opened the medicine box, with an injection on the side, and Erzhu took a bowl of boiling water and placed it next to him to let him disinfect. Chen Minde sucked the potion into the syringe and took a cotton ball to the apricot.
Apricot looked at Erzhu and said, "Erzhu, you go out." ”
Erzhu looked at Chen Minde uneasily and went to the outhouse.
After the second pillar left, the apricot lay down on her side, with her back to the outside.
Chen Minde looked at the apricot and gently trembled with the hand holding the syringe.
He took the cotton ball and rubbed it lightly, then stuck the syringe needle into it, and he was busy giving the apricot injection while looking at the apricot with his head tilted sideways.
Of course, these apricots did not know, she frowned, endured the pain of the needle, fortunately, Chen Minde pushed the needle very slowly, while pushing and pinching with her fingers, somehow can alleviate a little pain.
Just at this time, the jujube flower came, for a long time she did not come to erzhu's house, did not see the apricot in her heart a little miss her, she said hello to the erzhu in the outhouse, and entered the apricot room.
When Chen Minde saw someone coming, he hurriedly stood up straight, quickly finished the injection, took a look at the jujube flower, and hurriedly lowered his head to the side of the medicine box to sort out the medicine box.
Jujube sat down next to Apricot and helped her get dressed, and when Apricot sat down, she took her hand and said, "Sister-in-law, I haven't seen you in a few days, who thought you were sick like this?" ”
Apricot smiled and said, "It rained that day, and when it rained a little, I got cold." Got two injections and now it's all right. ”
Jujube said, "Isn't there a second pillar, and let you go to the ground, this second pillar is messed up, I don't know how to hurt you, I'll go and say a few words to him." ”
Apricot pulled her aside and said, "It has nothing to do with him, don't rush to go when you come, talk with me well." ”
At this time, Chen Minde packed up the medicine box and said, "Oh, then I'll leave, and I'll come back by this time tomorrow." ”
Chen Minde went out of the room to the outhouse, Erzhu got up to send him, the two of them went to the courtyard, Kuroko yelled at Chen Minde, almost breaking the chain tied to his neck.
Chen Minde looked at Kuroko and said timidly, "Erzhu, this dog in your family doesn't welcome me?" ”
Erzhu smiled and said, "Oh, you are not familiar with it, and when it is ripe, it will not bite you." ”
Erzhu sent Chen Minde outside the courtyard door before returning to the courtyard and unraveling the black son. He said to Kuroko, "Kuroko, what are you doing?" Seeing everyone like this, isn't that a jerk? If that were the case, I'd kill you and eat meat. ”
Kuroko circled around the second pillar a few times and squeaked a few times before quieting down.
Jujube and Apricot were talking in the room, and Jujube said, "Where is this doctor?" What does it look weird? ”
Apricot said, "Erzhu went to the doctor in Liangshuigou to ask for it, you said he was weird, where is the blame?" ”
Jujube pondered and said, "I can't say it either, I always think he's weird, not like a good thing." ”
Apricot smiled and said, "You just look at Erzhu well, other people are not good, there is no doctor, we are sick, then don't wait to die?" ”
Jujube smiled and said, "That's what I said, sister-in-law, in the evening, I'll be able to take care of you by staying with you." ”
Apricot smiled and said, "Well, I can't please come, so I'll say yes." ”
At this time, Jia Cailan came over, saw the jujube flower, and said happily: "Jujube flower, are you here?" Don't rush to leave when you come, the mother will go to cook. ”
Jujube stood up and smiled and said, "Oh, I'm not leaving, I'm going to cook with you." ”
Jia Cailan said: "No need, you accompany your apricot sister-in-law, just a few people's meals, I will do it in a moment, your sister-in-law has not eaten well for two days, today the mood is a little better, just eat more." Apricot, what do you want to eat? ”
Apricot said, "I want to eat a bowl of sour noodle soup." ”
Jia Cailan said, "Then I will make sour noodle soup." ”
After Jia Cailan left, Jujube smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, I see that our mother is very sad for you, and I have to come to ask you what kind of food I cook?" ”
Apricot said, "It was because I was sick that she was like this, I see that my mother is hurting you, and when you enter the door later, she will not take me seriously." ”
Jujube smiled and said, "No, if I come to this house in the future, I will serve you one day." ”
At this time, the grasshoppers hanging in the house cried out a few times, and then became quiet, and jujube found the grasshopper cage, looked at it in surprise, and said, "Sister-in-law, when did you catch the grasshopper?" It sounds so good. ”
Apricot smiled and said, "Oh, when it didn't rain two days ago, it was Erzhu and I who went to work in the fields and found this grasshopper, and he helped me catch it." ”
Jujube felt jealous in her heart, and then smiled and said, "When the sky is clear, I will ask him to catch one for me." ”
The two of them talked again, and the apricot moved to the edge of the kang and said, "Jujube, I'm going to go to the hut, and you'll wait in my house." ”
Apricot came out of the room, to the courtyard, the sun came out, she suddenly felt the light, to the hut outside the courtyard door, and when she stood up, there was Venus in front of her eyes, a dizziness, and hurriedly supported the wall.
After a while, feeling a little better, he stood up straight, and Kuroko came to her side, circled her twice, and squeezed the apricot.
Apricot said softly, Kuroko, be well, don't squeeze me, now the wind can down. ”
The apricot returned to the house, Jia Cailan had already made the rice, and the jujube flowers filled a bowl of rice for the apricots, and said: "Sister-in-law, I am tuning according to my taste, if you feel that it is not in line with your taste, I am adjusting it for you." ”
The apricot tasted it, smiled and said, "Well, it's just sour and spicy, and you can eat it soon." ”
After eating, Jujube returned home once, told her mother about her evening at Apricot's house, and came over when it was dark.
Erzhu knew that jujube was coming here at night, and with her taking care of the apricots, he was relieved and wanted to go to the apricot garden.
Jujube stopped at the door and said, "Erzhu, it's so dark, where are you going?" ”
Erzhu said, "Oh, I'll go to the apricot orchard." ”
Jujube said, "Are you still worried about your apricot?" Rest assured, no one stole it. ”
Apricot heard that Jujube did not want Erzhu to go to the apricot garden, and said in the room: "Erzhu, you don't go at night, Jujube is also at home, you can still talk to her." ”
Erzhu said, "Jujube, I'm not going, you take care of your sister-in-law, I'm going to the apricot orchard." ”
Erzhu returned to his room and closed the door.
Jujube was not happy in her heart, and said in a bad mood: "You are really not interesting, I am not a tiger, can I still eat you?" ”
Jujube returned to the apricot room, and her face was still sullen.
The apricot looked at the color and said, "Jujube, what's up?" Not happy? ”
Jujube said, "I was just angry with Erzhu, thinking that I would marry him in the future, and I would have to live with him for a lifetime, and my head would be bigger. ”
Apricot smiled and said, "Jujube, you're not telling the truth, are you?" ”
Jujube said, "If anyone wants him, I'll sell him now." ”
