Chapter 177 It doesn’t matter
An IV drip is much more effective than taking medicine.
Xiao Yangzhi, who had been dizzy for the whole day, looked better after getting an IV drip. She was not as listless as when I first saw her.
Xu Mingyuan picked up her clothes. She was dressed fine, with a sweater and a thin sweater underneath, and a school uniform as the outer layer. The lower body was thicker, with warm fleece pants and fleece-lined shoes.
There was no need for Xu Mingyuan to remind Xiao Yangzhi about these little things, as she knew what to do.
After learning that she had not eaten much at noon, he took her to have a quick meal after the injection and ordered a bowl of crucian carp and tofu soup for her.
Xiao Yangzhi didn’t have much appetite and couldn’t eat anymore after eating a little. She packed up the rest and took it home, planning to heat it up and eat it in the evening.
After returning home after not being home for many days, Xu Mingyuan shivered from the cold as soon as he opened the door.
This old building from the last century doesn't even have insulation. It's not as warm as being outside in the sunshine.
There is no floor heating in the old building, so you can’t share the temperature between upstairs and downstairs. You can only endure the lack of heating.
The master bedroom faces the sun and is not too cold.
I asked Xiao Yangzhi where the electric blanket was, found it in the cupboard, spread it on the bed, wrapped her in a quilt, and let her stay in the room, not allowing her to move.
Xu Mingyuan went to find a basin and prepared to put in the heating water.
After tinkering with it for a long time, I went to check the heating pipes in the corridor. The valve was turned on, and then I realized that it was not turned on at home.
There were traces of twisting on the radiator. Xiao Yangzhi must have tried to open it, but no water came out, and he didn't even bother to call and ask.
It was probably because Xu Mingyuan always asked her to take a nap at noon, so Xiao Yangzhi felt embarrassed to call her again.
This little girl is somewhat stubborn, and Xu Mingyuan feels helpless.
Xiao Yangzhi has to be reminded of everything before she dares to do it with confidence. She doesn’t know what to do in the future.
Speaking of being worry-free, Xiao Yangzhi is actually quite worry-free, but there are still many things that are not worry-free.
After removing the baffle in the bathroom, Xu Mingyuan turned on the heating valve. After running water in every room one by one, there was finally some warmth in the room.
But the room is still a bit cold, and it will take a few days to completely dispel the cold.
I wiped the water off the floor and finally finished everything I needed to do.
Seeing Xiao Yangzhi sticking her head out to look at him, Xu Mingyuan walked over and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"I, I want to go to the bathroom..." Yang Zhi said in a low voice.
"Then go ahead. Are you confused due to the fever? Why are you asking me this? I mean to stop you from working, not to stop you from peeing." Xu Mingyuan said speechlessly.
"Oh……"
Yang Zhi bit her lip and lowered her head, too embarrassed to see anyone.
I knew in my heart that I was being stupid again, but every time I saw my brother, I felt like my little brain was not working as it should.
It's probably because of the fever in my head...
Seeing Xiao Yangzhi trotting into the bathroom with her legs tucked together, Xu Mingyuan shook his head with a look of pain on his face.
After having an IV drip and eating a bag of oranges, it was really hard for Xiao Yangzhi to hold it in until now.
Xu Mingyuan ignored her and went to the study to turn on the computer. He followed the progress of the classmates network remotely and sent a message to Li Yunfeng, asking him to recruit a few students with good technical skills to the company for internship as soon as possible. His work for the day was then completed.
Xiao Yangzhi walked in quietly wrapped in a quilt and sat down aside.
Xu Mingyuan touched her forehead and felt that it was still a little hot, so he said casually: "Go back to the room and rest, don't catch a cold again."
"It's okay. The room isn't as cold as it was before. I'm still wrapped in the quilt."
"Tsk, hurry up."
Xu Mingyuan tapped her forehead without using much force.
"Brother, I'm sorry to have delayed your work..." Yang Zhi said guiltily.
"No, it's just right that I can take a few days off." Xu Mingyuan said.
"Oh."
Yang Zhi wrapped herself in a quilt and slowly walked away.
The door closed slowly, but it was not closed tightly for a long time.
Xu Mingyuan raised his head and saw a head poking out from the crack in the door. He could only sigh and stand up.
Yang Zhi shuddered, thinking he was going to be beaten, and quickly trotted back to the room.
Xiao Yangzhi's heart was fragile to begin with, and when she fell ill her body became fragile as well.
Xu Mingyuan simply took out his notebook and went to the room.
Little Yangzhi hid half of her face in the quilt, her dark brown eyes rolling around, and when she saw Xu Mingyuan sitting next to her, her eyes narrowed into a curve.
"Brother, let me cover you with a blanket."
Yang Zhi opened the quilt with a smile and pulled it towards him.
"Just cover yourself up. You've blown away all the warmth I managed to retain."
Xu Mingyuan stretched out his hand to suppress it, then stood up and fetched the small blanket he usually used to cover himself on the sofa, covered his legs with it and continued to fiddle with his laptop.
Little Yangzhi stared at the screen with sparkling eyes. Seeing that her brother was busy but she had nothing to do, she whispered, "Brother, I'm going to fall behind in class..."
"It's okay. Your grades are pretty good. It's not a problem to delay for a few days. I'll ask the teacher what homework he has assigned tomorrow, and you can just do it at home."
"Ah."
Yang Zhi nodded in agreement.
After watching for a while, Xiao Yangzhi felt a little tired and slowly closed his eyes.
However, Yang Zhi vaguely sensed some movement around him, and in panic he opened his eyes again.
Seeing that he didn't leave, he just turned off the notebook and put it aside, took out a magazine to read, and my heart finally settled down.
Xu Mingyuan lowered his head, their eyes crossed, and when he saw her squinting her eyes, he smiled as well, and reached out to pinch her smooth little face. Feeling the warmth from her fingers, Yang Zhi rubbed against him unconsciously like a kitten, and fell asleep in a daze.
When she woke up again, it was dark outside the window. Yang Zhi looked to the side, but the person was gone.
Yang Zhi quickly sat up and saw light coming from under the door, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
My brother will never leave, why are you always worried...
Yang Zhi said to herself in her heart that she seemed to have dreamed just now, but she was in a daze and couldn't remember what the dream was. She inserted her fingers into her hair, which was slightly moist.
The room was not as cold as when I first got home, and in the evening, it was heated.
She had taken off her school uniform jacket a long time ago and felt a little cold in her thin sweater. If she went out like this, she would definitely get scolded for shivering.
Yang Zhi didn't want to be scolded, so she put on the small blanket that her brother was covering himself with.
"Hey, it's a good coincidence that you got up just in time for dinner."
Seeing Xiao Yangzhi floating over like a ghost, Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.
Xu Mingyuan didn't eat much of the food he packed back in the afternoon. He was too lazy to go out to buy food in the cold weather, so he heated up the fish soup and poured water into the rice to make porridge.
Yang Zhi couldn't taste much, but still forced himself to eat a few more bites.
Seeing that she really couldn't eat anymore, Xu Mingyuan didn't let her eat anymore and cleared the table.
"Brother, how about putting on another garbage bag? The soup might spill out..."
Yang Zhi watched him pack up and reminded him carefully.
"it is good."
Xu Mingyuan followed her advice and put two more garbage bags in to throw away the remaining soup.
After throwing all the garbage downstairs, Xu Mingyuan came back and saw that Xiao Yangzhi was still coughing a little, so he gave her a thermometer to hold.
When he saw the thermometer had dropped to 38.5 degrees, Xu Mingyuan comforted him and said, "It's okay. If your temperature can drop a little tomorrow, you don't need to get the injection. If not, you can get another injection and it will be fine."
It only took one day from the onset of fever to the injection. If the treatment was early, the recovery would be fast and it was not a big deal.
Xiao Yangzhi has been studying hard and has a lot on her mind, so this is a good opportunity for her to relax for two days.
Xu Mingyuan found a quilt, covered her with it, and watched TV together.
By eight o'clock, the effect of the medicine had taken effect on Xiao Yangzhi, and she began to feel sleepy again.
"I've already boiled some water. Just wash your face and go to bed. We can talk about anything tomorrow."
"okay."
Yang Zhi nodded, went to get some hot water, washed her face and brushed her teeth, tidied herself up and walked out of the bathroom.
Seeing her standing there in a daze, Xu Mingyuan said, "Go to the south room and sleep. My room is warm, and your room is very cold. Don't let your cold get worse."
Yang Zhi's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he felt a little secretly happy, but he still asked uncertainly: "Brother, are you going to accompany me..."
"Is your condition so serious? Do you need someone to keep watch over you? I can just stay on the sofa for one night." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.
"Brother, the leather sofa is so cold, you will catch a cold..." Yang Zhi reminded in a low voice.
Xu Mingyuan thought about it and said, "How about I go to your room? Do you mind?"
"Don't mind, don't mind, brother, just don't mind..."
Yang Zhi shook his head and waved his hands.
"Okay, then go to bed first."
Xu Mingyuan waved his hand and asked her to go back to her room.
After watching the news, Xu Mingyuan did not stay in the living room, but went to Xiao Yangzhi's room.
Xu Mingyuan still missed the room where he had lived for more than ten years, but now it had become Xiao Yangzhi's room, so he had to suppress the thought.
The little girl's room smells delicious. It's strange because they use the same laundry detergent, but the smell is different.
His former room was completely different now, with only the layout remaining. Xu Mingyuan felt a little sorry.
But after turning off the lights and looking at the dark scenery outside the window, I was able to recall some past memories.
Tao Shuxin also finished her evening self-study, and Xu Mingyuan started chatting with her on the phone for a long time.
After chatting for more than two hours, Xu Mingyuan was so thirsty that he was almost dry-mouthed. Tao Shuxin also needed to wash up and pack up, so they finally ended the call.
After sending each other good night text messages, Xu Mingyuan took a deep breath of the fragrance on the quilt and closed his eyes very comfortably.
It’s more comfortable to have your own room.
Xiao Yangzhi had fallen asleep a long time ago, but she drank too much water at night, so she got up in the middle of the night with a dizzy head and went to the bathroom.
Turning on the light and seeing that the wall clock pointed to two o'clock in the morning, Yang Zhi subconsciously glanced at the door. After hesitating for a long time, she bit her lip and carefully turned the doorknob.
"Brother...Brother...are you awake..."
Although he had been here several times, Yang Zhi was still nervous.
Listening to the steady breathing, Yang Zhi calmed his mind.
Xu Mingyuan is a deep sleeper and usually doesn't wake up. Yang Zhi knows this very well.
Although his room should be familiar to him, his calf still hit the edge of the bed. Yang Zhi quickly covered his mouth to prevent himself from making any sound.
After calming down for a while, Yang Zhi carefully picked up a corner of the quilt and tiptoed in.
Her movements were very gentle, and just this small movement took her almost ten minutes.
Yang Zhi really likes to stay next to Xu Mingyuan, lying quietly. The feeling of being within reach is the most real. This is when she is most peaceful.
It’s okay to take a nap. I haven’t slept for long today. I will definitely get up early...
