"Don't move. I'll apply medicine to you."

Xiao Beiguo pushed her to sit on the chair and took out a small bottle from the cabinet.

"What is this?" Su Xiaowan didn't even notice when such a thing appeared in the cabinet.

"This is a bite medicine. Although your wound is not serious after applying the medicine, you still need to be careful."

Xiao Beiguo applied medicine to her as he spoke, his movements skillfully.

"How do you know so much?"

"I used to work in the mountains, where snakes, insects, rats and ants were common, and I was bitten. Later, I met someone who knew pharmacology, and he taught me how to make a bottle of medicine like this."

"Although the smell is not very good, the effect is very good. Apply it twice and basically there will be no problem."

Su Xiaowan frowned slightly, "Have you been bitten before?" Otherwise, how could she be so sure.

"The year you gave birth to Xixi, you followed Zhiwei to the mountains to work and were bitten by a snake. It was this medicine that the eldest brother brought with him that cured you."

Su Xiaowan shuddered at the mere thought of it; working in the mountains might sound like nothing, but few people were willing to do it.

That is much more tiring and difficult than doing odd jobs outside, and it is also inconvenient.

"Was that serious?"

As I recall, there was one time when Xiao Beiguo came back with the back of his hand still wrapped.

But she didn't ask a single question. She took the money with peace of mind and turned around to find someone to buy the secret recipe for having a son.

"Fortunately, the medicine was taken in time, and I will be almost healed after a few days of rest."

Xiao Beiguo simply passed it over in one sentence, and Su Xiaowan felt extremely uncomfortable and sad.

She tried to ask, "If there was no medicine at that time, would something go wrong?"

Xiao Beiguo pursed his lips and hummed after a while, "So I got a bottle of medicine from that big brother that time, and I always carry it with me when I go out."

That time, he almost couldn't come back. It was a highly poisonous snake. If that big brother hadn't known more, he would have lost his life.

"Xiao Beiguo, why didn't you tell me before?"

She never knew this, and never felt any sympathy or concern for him.

When Su Xiaowan thought of this, she wanted to slap herself. How could she have done this in her previous life!

"Everyone is fine now. Telling you anything will only make you worry."

After applying the medicine, I looked at the bite wound. Apart from a little skin breakage, there was no redness or swelling. It was obviously treated in time and there was no serious problem.

"Just lie down on the bed for a while. I'll go make dinner. Don't touch water for the next two days. If you feel uncomfortable, tell me."

"I'm fine. The wound is fine. I'll go wash the mushrooms and dry them into dried mushrooms. Then I can make soup."

Su Xiaowan couldn't sit still either, it was almost time for lunch.

"You can't touch the water. I'll take care of it after dinner. If you don't want to rest, go play with Xixi for a while. I'll go cook."

Xiao Beiguo wouldn't let her do anything no matter what.

"But didn't you do it yourself when you were injured before?" He even had to help her wash her clothes.

Su Xiaowan sighed in her heart, she was really annoying in her previous life.

"I'm a man, I have thick skin and flesh, but you're different."

Xiao Beiguo pulled her out of the room and said, "Go sit for a while. I'll cook two dishes and then we'll eat."

Unable to persuade him, Su Xiaowan simply went to get a book to look up ways to repel insects.

Less than half an hour later, Xixi ran to the door and shouted, "Mom, it's time for dinner."

"Okay, here comes mom."

Looking at Xixi's chubby body, Su Xiaowan's eyes were filled with maternal love.

Holding the little girl's hand, he walked towards the hall, "Xixi, have you been good today? What did you play?"

"Be good, Grandpa took Xixi to the village entrance to play, and also played with Grandma Li's grandson, but Brother Erdan scolded me, saying that it was useless for me to learn to read, and that I was a money-loser."

Xixi raised her little face, aggrieved and curious, "Mom, what is the money-losing stuff?"

Su Xiaowan squatted down, held the little girl's face, and said seriously, "Xixi, you must remember to learn to read well. Only by learning to read can you leave this mountain and go to the big city to see more scenery you have never seen before."

"Erdan just didn't study hard, so he said that. No matter if you are a boy or a girl, you must learn to read and write well."

Xixi nodded, not quite understanding, "Mom, I understand. Xixi will study hard in the future and won't be like her brothers, who were scolded as useless children."

Su Xiaowan was deeply moved. Such a young girl actually understood so much. She hugged her in her arms, feeling very relieved.

"Well, Xixi is awesome. Don't care what others say. Just be yourself."

Xiao Beiguo came out with the dishes and saw this scene. He couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

"Dad, Mom is teaching me to read and write well. When I grow up, I want to be a great man like you."

Su Xiaowan let her go, doting and distressed, "Then Xixi, eat first. Only by eating more can you grow up."

"Okay, I'll go wash my hands."

Xixi trotted to wash her hands, and Su Xiaowan tried to take the food from Xiao Beiguo's hand, but he avoided her.

"Come in and sit down. I'll be right there."

"I was just bitten by a centipede. I'm not that delicate." Su Xiaowan was a little amused.

"That's not possible. Be obedient and go sit down. I'll pick up the bowls." Xiao Beiguo pushed her to sit down, his face full of doting.

"Xiao Beiguo, you make me feel like a child."

"Well, you don't need to be so strong with me."

Su Xiaowan's nose felt sore and she choked up a little, "You'll spoil me like this."

It will make her more and more attached to him.

Xiao Beiguo rubbed her head and said, "Wait, I'll go pick up the bowl."

Looking at his back as he walked away, Su Xiaowan stared at him for a long time without coming back to her senses.

The next morning, after delivering the vegetables to the restaurant, Su Xiaowan told Song Nancheng about the insects infesting the greenhouse.

He would definitely ask his friends for a solution, so he went to the market with peace of mind. After buying some meat, Su Xiaowan asked Xiao Beiguo to go to the pharmacy with her. Because they brought a lot of things, Xiao Beiguo waited at the door.

Su Xiaowan briefly told the doctor about the medicinal herbs needed, and specifically emphasized that they were for men's health.

The doctor asked if I was very weak. After receiving an affirmative answer, he prescribed some herbs and instructed me on the dosage.

Su Xiaowan returned home with the herbs in her arms, satisfied.

At dinner time, she gave Xiao Beiguo the stewed chicken soup and told him, "Drink it all."

Looking at the whole chicken, Xiao Beiguo subconsciously asked, "I want to eat it alone?"

"Well, these are the herbs I bought specifically for you to nourish your body. I'll stew another one for Xixi and Dad tomorrow."

Xiao Beiguo rummaged through the box, looked at the medicinal herbs inside, frowned slightly, but said nothing.

He pulled off two chicken legs and handed them to Su Xiaowan's bowl, "This is for you, and I'll drink the soup."

After dinner, Su Xiaowan gave Xixi a bath and went back to her room to sleep early.

After taking a shower, Xiao Beiguo felt hot and uncomfortable all over. Even after drinking a jar of cold boiled water, there was still no relief.
