After all, for a child like her, delicious food is undoubtedly one of the best comforts.

Moreover, Zhao Jincheng knew very well that his little apprentice was an absolute glutton!

As soon as he sees delicious food, his originally clear and bright big eyes will immediately flash with excitement, and the corners of his mouth will unconsciously rise, revealing a cute look with a mouth-watering look.

Recalling the last time when his little apprentice drooled at the fragrant meat hung up to dry, Zhao Jincheng couldn't help but smile knowingly.

At that time, she was like a hungry kitten, staring at the piece of meat and muttering something to herself.

That naive look is still deeply engraved in Zhao Jincheng's mind, and he can't help laughing whenever he recalls it.

After the aunt carefully fed the medicine to her man, she gently wiped his face with a cloth.

After being busy for a while, she felt a little exhausted and decided to take a rest.

Just as she was about to lie down, she saw the yamen runners hurrying towards her from the corner of her eye. At first, the aunt did not take it seriously, thinking that the yamen runners might have other important things to do and might not have anything to do with her.

However, as the bailiffs gradually approached, she couldn't help but feel a little doubtful: Looking at the situation, it seemed like they were coming for her.

Confused, the aunt hurried forward. Just as she was about to ask what happened, the yamen runner said, "Aunt, please go and see old lady Niu. She just got sick suddenly. The situation is very scary. She almost died. You have to take good care of her in the next few days!"

Hearing this, the aunt felt a chill running down her spine, and was terrified. She thought to herself: Oh, if the old lady really got into trouble because of her poor care, with her fierce temper, she would definitely not let it go, and she would definitely come to the door on the seventh day to ask for an explanation.

Thinking of this, the aunt felt that all the hairs on her body stood up and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Fortunately, the old lady was not seriously injured. As long as she was safe, he could safely collect the five cents wages every day and put them into his own small pocket.

The aunt silently prayed for God's blessing in her heart, and murmured to herself: "Thank God, thank God..."

However, she really couldn't understand it. When she left, the old lady was fine, so how could she suddenly fall ill?

And from what the yamen runners said, the illness seemed quite serious. What kind of illness did she have? The aunt decided to find out carefully when she got to the old lady's place.

The aunt left without any hesitation because she knew time was running out and there could be no delay. What if the old lady got sick again? That would be a disaster.

My man has indeed been in better spirits these days than before. He has been awake much more often and can even drink medicine with a bowl by himself.

Thinking of this, the aunt felt a little more at ease, but she still couldn't be completely relieved. After all, it was a serious illness and she needed good care of herself. However, she could spend less time here.

Normally, when the aunt met acquaintances on the road, she would always stop and chat with them. But today was different. She didn't care about that at all. She just wanted to rush to the old lady to see what was going on.

Along the way, the aunt walked hurriedly. When others saw her and wanted to say hello, they just stretched out their hands and had no time to say anything before the aunt rushed past them like a gust of wind. The speed was so fast that it was simply jaw-dropping.

Finally, she came to the old lady and walked closer impatiently. When she saw the old lady lying quietly on the stretcher and sleeping soundly, her heart finally settled down.

I carefully observed the old lady's complexion and found it to be normal.

At this moment, she let out a long sigh and seemed a little relieved.

The aunt stayed here bored, and the only thing she could see was the old lady who was sleeping soundly.

Time passed by, and it was really boring to sit there like this. So I wanted to find someone to ask what happened just now.

There are a lot of people coming and going nearby, and I guess if you pick any one of them, they would know exactly what just happened.

After all, it is almost impossible to watch something exciting but not join in the fun.

And as long as you don't stay too far away from the old lady, you can kill the boring time and solve the mystery in your heart. Why not do it?

Thinking of this, she looked around and saw a person passing by and waved to her. However, to her surprise, the person showed a hint of timidity after seeing the action and hesitated to move forward.

My aunt also understood. After all, it took a lot of courage to get close to the sleeping old lady.

The aunt cautiously took a few steps in that direction, then put out a hand to cover her mouth, as if this would minimize the possibility of her voice being heard by the old lady.

She deliberately lowered her voice, pointed at the old lady lying not far away, and said softly: "Don't worry, she's already asleep."

After hearing this, the man looked towards the old lady's position with doubt.

After careful observation and confirmation, her heart finally settled down and she walked towards her aunt with confidence and boldness.

When the two of them came together, they both lowered their voices at the same time.

They started whispering like this, and they talked for a long time.

My aunt listened to the other person intently the whole time, and the expression on her face kept changing with what she heard, sometimes surprised, sometimes worried.

After hearing everything, the aunt couldn't help but sigh inwardly: "This old lady is still safe and sound now, she is really lucky!"

At this time, although the old lady lying on the other side had her eyes closed, she always felt that there was a mosquito flying around her ear, and the "buzzing" sound made her upset.

Gradually, a nameless anger rose from the bottom of her heart. The old lady could no longer bear it. She suddenly raised her hand and waved it hard, trying to drive away the annoying mosquito.

The aunt, who was chatting with others happily, suddenly saw the old lady's behavior and her heart skipped a beat.

Based on her understanding of the old lady, this meant that she would wake up soon.

Thinking of this, the aunt quickly closed her mouth and dared not even breathe.
