Famine Bride: Marry into the best in-laws and win

After hearing what she said, Hong Quan looked at Yang Erming's pale and weak face and did not speak for a long time.

After a long while, he spoke with a hoarse voice and difficulty, "Man Yue, there are still some fever-reducing medicines at the brigade clinic. I'll get them now and give them to Er Ming."

"As for the rest, I'll trouble you to take care of him."

After saying that, he turned and ran outside, disappearing in an instant.

Xu Manyue looked at the gradually disappearing figure and understood what the other party meant.

The simple thing is that the Chen family has no money, and there is no money in the brigade account. It is late at night and there is no one to help, so it is not easy to go to the county town.

So we can only leave it to fate.

Xu Manyue walked to Chen Erming and touched his forehead again. His high fever had not subsided, but was getting hotter and hotter.

He was covered in cold sweat, his face was extremely pale, and his lips were completely bloodless.

In a trance, Chen Erming seemed to see a figure, and he murmured unconsciously, "Teacher..."

Xu Manyue sighed, and finally bought some antipyretic medicine from the system and fed it to him.

This time she really tried her best and gave him the best antipyretic and anti-inflammatory drugs. If he couldn't survive, it would just be his fate.

As for the medicines in the brigade clinic, they are definitely not as effective as the ones she has.

Not long after, Hong Quan ran over with a bottle of medicine, sweating profusely, "Man Yue, take a look, is this it?"

Xu Manyue took it and looked at it. It was indeed a fever-reducing medicine, but it had expired for almost half a year.

If you really count on this, you won't make it to tomorrow.

She first sent the people out, and then when Chen Erming's condition improved, she called them in again.

"Uncle Hong, I've already given Erming the medicine. Whether he can escape danger depends entirely on himself."

"I haven't told my mother-in-law and the others about my coming out yet. I have to go back first."

Hong Quan looked at the half-grown child lying on the bed dying, then looked at Xu Manyue, feeling a little embarrassed.

"This...is the full moon. How about this? I'll go to your house first and tell your mother-in-law that you stay here to take care of Erming. If anything happens, it will be handled in time."

Xu Manyue pursed her lips and said, "Uncle Hong, I have done what I can. If something unexpected happens, or if his high fever doesn't subside, there is nothing I can do."

She said this at the beginning.

Her medical skills were at best entry-level, and she was fine for minor illnesses, but in a critical situation of this magnitude, even a hospital might not be able to save the patient, let alone her ability to do so.

When Hong Quan heard this, he felt very uncomfortable and squatted on the ground with his head in his hands. "Okay, you go back first, I'll stay here."

Before Xu Manyue left, she was a little worried, so she checked Yang Erming carefully again before leaving.

She has classes tomorrow morning and it's already very late, so it's impossible for her to stay here with him all the time.

After returning to the Shen family.

Xu Manyue walked into the yard and was about to return to her room, but found the old lady standing at her door.

Just by looking at it, you can tell that you have been waiting for a while.

She was stunned for a moment, "Mom, is there something wrong?"

The old lady glanced at her and waved her hand, "Go to your room and talk."

Xu Manyue was a little surprised. This was the first time the old lady went to her room and looked for her privately.

After the two entered the room, the door closed.

The old lady looked around the room. It was clean and tidy, which made her feel comfortable. In the basket on the table, there were insoles that were being knitted.

She picked up the insole and placed it in front of her eyes. The flowers and plants embroidered on it looked like real life. The embroidery was quite good.

After looking for a long time, the old lady finally set her sights on Xu Manyue, "Third daughter-in-law, you have been running outside all the time these days. Your sister-in-law has told me about this several times."

"Of course, I don't mean anything by that. I just wanted to ask you if you have anything to do these days?"

As soon as her son left, her daughter-in-law went out every day. Even though she, as the mother-in-law, trusted her daughter-in-law in her heart, she could not stand the various speculations made by others in her ears.

Just lay things out directly.

Xu Manyue walked up, took the old lady's arm and shook it gently.

"Mom, you don't know who I am. If you listen to other people's rumors and think of me like this, I will be so sad."

The old lady sighed and touched her hand, "Mother knows what kind of person you are, but outsiders don't know."

Xu Manyue had no choice but to explain, "I went out a few days ago to help the team leader and Accountant Guo find corn seeds."

"Last winter, so many people in our brigade starved to death, and this year the famine hasn't eased at all. To help the villagers survive this winter, the brigade leader and his team plan to find some seeds and see if they can grow some food."

"No, when I came out of school a few days ago, I happened to meet the team leader, and he asked me to help find some seeds. I have been busy with this matter outside for the past few days."

The old lady subconsciously held Xu Manyue's hand tightly, extremely excited.

"So what are your plans? Have you found the seeds? Where will the water for the fields come from? And where is the fertilizer? Does our brigade have money in its account to buy fertilizer?"

Ever since they couldn't grow any crops in the fields last year, they have been resting at home for almost a year. How can people in the countryside rest?

Especially for someone like her who has spent most of her life digging for food in the fields, she felt uncomfortable all over.

Xu Manyue quickly comforted her, "Mom, don't be anxious, listen to me slowly."

"We haven't found many seeds yet, not enough to plant. As for fertilizer, the team leader said we can only use farmyard manure for now. We are still discussing the water for irrigation."

"I guess they'll notify everyone to attend a meeting in a few days to discuss resuming work."

The old lady's eyes were red and tears welled up in her eyes. Her voice was a little choked up. "Okay, it's good to go to work. I can finally move my old bones."

Having done farm work for most of her life, she felt exhausted when she stopped. When people have nothing to do, they are not as energetic as before.

Xu Manyue didn't expect that the old lady would be so excited.

She took out a handkerchief, wiped her tears, and continued, "But there are still many issues that are being discussed. Mother, please don't tell anyone else about this for now."

"Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who doesn't know the limits."

The old lady suddenly smiled happily, holding Xu Manyue's hand, and the more she looked, the more satisfied she became.

Fortunately, it was this daughter-in-law who was married into the family. If it was someone else, the Shen family would have been in chaos because of her.

The old lady suddenly remembered something and slapped her thigh. "Oh, right, you said there aren't enough seeds, right? That's not a big problem. Just go to the commune and find the leaders. They'll definitely be able to get some."

"That old fellow Hong Quan is incompetent. He can't even get a seed. I shouldn't have chosen him as the team leader earlier."

Although she said so, she still approved of the captain in her heart. After all, the Qingshan Brigade was now an empty shell, with almost all of its members being the elderly, weak, sick and disabled.

Hong Quan is a good person as he was able to stand up at this time.
