Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly

After a tearful confession in front of her family, Lin Xi fainted. Before fainting, she checked with the system, "Are you sure Du Xingzhi heard everything I said?"

"Of course! To be on the safe side, I also secretly used the latest sound amplification device to ensure that he can hear everything clearly." Hearing the rare reliable guarantee from the system, Lin Xi smiled and fell asleep with peace of mind.

The family in the room fell into panic because of Lin Xi's coma. Outside the window, Du Xingzhi was shocked by Lin Xi's words, and a memory vaguely emerged in his mind.

He was about eight or nine years old at that time. He would pass by the headman's house on his way to school every day, and every time he would see a thin and petite girl sitting at the door. At first he didn't pay much attention, but after seeing her more often, he discovered that this little girl always sat quietly alone and never played with other children in the village.

One time he finally couldn't help it and approached her to talk to her, "Are you my aunt's little cousin? Why do you always sit here alone?"

The little girl raised her fluffy head, her small face showing a hint of surprise and asked, "Who are you?" Then she lowered her eyelids and said with a hint of grievance, "They all said I was a sickly person and didn't want to play with me."

Du Xingzhi's heart softened, thinking of how he was bullied by the children in the village when he was a child because of his weak body. He felt more pity for the little girl in front of him. He reached out and touched Lin Xi's head, and said softly: "I am your cousin Xingzhi. I just moved here not long ago and live not far from your home." After that, he pointed the direction of his home to the little girl, "Look, it's there."

The little girl looked curiously in the direction he pointed, then smiled sweetly and called out in a clear voice, "Hello, cousin Xingzhi, my name is Nannan."

"Well, baby girl, good girl, cousin Xingzhi will play with you in the future, okay? But cousin Xingzhi has to go to school now, so I'll come to see you after school, okay?" The furry head felt good to the touch, and Du Xingzhi couldn't help but rub it again.

The little girl's eyes sparkled with surprise, and the smile on her face was as bright as a rising red sun. "Really? Cousin Xingzhi, you are so nice. I'll be waiting for you here. You have to finish school early."

From that day on, he would talk to the little girl on his way to school and sometimes bring her some toys that children like. But later he was bitten by a snake and had a high fever. After he recovered from the injury, he went to the county school. Lin Xi's health also improved a lot, and she could play with the children in the village. He gradually put this memory behind him. Unexpectedly, a childhood memory was remembered by Lin Xi for so long, and the gratitude gradually turned into her deep love for him as she grew older.

From the house came Mrs. Du's shrill cry, followed by the steady voice of the head of the village, "Junwazi, go and ask Doctor Hu to come, quickly!" The little black dog in the yard was awakened by the chaotic noise, and smelled a strange smell, and started barking. Seeing that someone was about to come out, Du Xingzhi had no time to sort out his confused thoughts and stumbled back home.

As the sky brightened, Lin Xi woke up and felt a bitter taste in her mouth. Just as she was about to turn over, she heard Mrs. Du's surprised voice, "Nannan, you're awake!"

Lin Xi looked up and saw Du Shi, who looked exhausted. Her hair was messy and her eyes were red. It was obvious that she had not slept well the night before. This made Lin Xi feel guilty. In order to complete her mission, she had never hesitated to use others, but facing the relatives in this world who treated her well unconditionally, she could not bear it after all.

"Mom, I'm sorry." Lin Xi spoke in a hoarse voice.

"It's good that you're awake, it's good that you're awake. You must be hungry. Mother has cooked some corn porridge and will bring it to you right away." Mrs. Du looked at her daughter's frail appearance and wiped away her tears.

Lin Xi's eyes also turned red, but when Mrs. Du fed the corn porridge to her mouth, she still stubbornly clenched her teeth and refused to open her mouth. Mrs. Du was so angry that she slapped her mouth twice and said angrily: "You stupid girl, why are you so stubborn! Your grandfather has already agreed, open your mouth!"

Lin Xi opened her eyes wide when she heard this, as if she couldn't believe it, "Really?" After getting an affirmative answer from Mrs. Du, crystal tears suddenly welled up in her eyes and she sobbed silently.

When the rest of the family learned that Lin Xi had woken up, except for the head and his wife who were still catching up on sleep after last night's trouble, they all came to see her. Xiao Shuanzi lay beside Lin Xi's bed, his big round eyes full of heartache. He stuffed a candy in his little hand into Lin Xi's mouth and said in a baby voice, "Aunt, I'll give you some candy. If you eat the candy, the medicine won't be bitter. You have to get better soon."

The candy seemed to have been held in his hand for too long and had melted a little, but Lin Xi still opened her mouth to take it, looking at Xiao Shuanzi with a smile, "Thank you Shuanzi for the candy, it's really sweet, auntie feels much better."

Xiao Shuanzi smiled innocently and wanted to lick his fingers, but was stopped by Lin Xi's sister-in-law, Xiao Du, who smiled and pulled him outside to wash his hands. The whole family was amused by him, and just when they were having a good time, they heard a knock at the door. Xiao Du, who was outside with Xiao Shuanzi washing his hands, asked who it was. Seeing no one responded, she was a little confused. She opened the door and found that it was Du Xingzhi who was carrying something.

Du Xingzhi was wearing a dark blue round-necked robe. The material was not brand new but it was ironed so that there was not a single wrinkle. As he was not yet a young man, his hair was combed into an ordinary student's bun, but his hair was neatly arranged, and it was obvious that it had been carefully groomed.

Mrs. Du had a complicated expression. After all, her sister-in-law had just made such a fuss last night, and today Du Xingzhi came to visit her, dressed so smartly and carrying something. It was obvious that he came for Lin Xi. But since the visitor was a guest, she still smiled and welcomed him in.

In the main hall, Li Zheng looked at Du Xingzhi, who was sitting at the bottom, with an unexpected expression.

Lin Xi fainted last night, and he had to call for a doctor and comfort the frightened family. He didn't go to bed until one o'clock in the morning. As a result, he was woken up so early today. Although he reluctantly agreed not to stop Lin Xi from interacting with the boy from the Du family in the future, he couldn't give Du Xingzhi a good face when he thought about how his granddaughter had suffered so much because of this boy.

He was full of anger, but Du Xingzhi, who was sitting below him, looked respectful. Seeing Li sitting down, he stood up and walked to the middle of the hall, lifted his coat, and knelt down in an upright manner.

The village head was slightly startled, but he suppressed the urge to step forward to help the man, and said in a deep voice, "What are you doing?"
