Chapter 1185 Feeding Medicine to Little Yuanbao
As if frozen in place, Jiang Jiyun stared wide-eyed, mouth slightly agape, her gaze fixed on Qi Feng's figure as he walked further and further away until he completely disappeared through the doorway.
After a long while, she seemed to wake up from a dream and slowly turned her head to look at her brother and uncle standing to the side.
Time seemed to stand still, and after a long while, Jiang Jiyun finally broke the silence.
She asked with a puzzled look, "What did Brother Qi Feng mean by what he just said? Could it be... could it be that he's planning to rely on me to support them in their old age?"
Only then did Granny Cai and the others realize what had happened.
It turns out that the younger sister Qi Feng mentioned, who would take care of them in their old age and see them off in their final days, was actually this little girl in front of them!
Jiang Jiyuan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, and he said softly, "Xiaoyun, didn't you tell everyone before that after the final victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan, you wanted to open special nursing homes all over the country?"
Jiang Jiyun nodded. These nursing homes of hers were not ordinary nursing homes; they were specially designed to house brave soldiers who had served on the front lines and were disabled due to injuries, making them unable to take care of themselves.
In fact, this has always been how Jiang Jiyun planned her future life path.
After all, this way, the heroes who have sacrificed for the country can be properly settled and cared for, and at the same time, they can be accompanied by familiar people, so that even when they grow old, their days will not be too lonely and desolate.
Thinking of this, Jiang Jiyun sighed helplessly, and said with a sense of resignation, "Oh well, alright then, it's not impossible. Let's spend our old age together then!"
She looked at her brother and uncle and said, "But you still need to have more nephews, nieces, and younger brothers and sisters. Otherwise, what will we do if bad people abuse us old folks? With our nephews and nieces to stand up for us, we can beat those who abuse us to death."
Jiang Jiyuan said irritably, "If anyone really dares to mistreat you, is your poison just for show?"
Jiang Jiyun chuckled.
Jiang Jiyuan turned his gaze to Chen Meng and Zhang An and said, "You and Zhang An stay here with Qi Feng and see if he needs any help. We'll go back to the city to continue making medicine."
Jiang Jiyun returned to the city with her uncle and brothers. As soon as she entered the house, she couldn't wait to play with the dogs.
Meanwhile, Jiang Wenming led the four Qin siblings to the pharmacy to collect the herbs they had pre-ordered.
Taking advantage of this free time, Jiang Jiyun quickly sent the puppies back into his spatial dimension one by one.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Jiyuan, Xiao Tian, and Xiao Wei also entered the space and began to exchange supplies in earnest.
Before long, Qin Heng and his group returned home laden with herbs.
In the huge house, only Jiang Jiyun and Xiao Qi were left, struggling to take care of a young child.
Jiang Wenming asked with a suspicious look, "Hey, isn't this Xiao Yuanbao? What's he doing here?"
Jiang Jiyun quickly stepped forward to explain, "Today, Zhou Ke went to the city with Zhou Peng and Ke Yue to buy things, and they also took a batch of chicks and a few goslings with them, so Xiao Yuanbao is temporarily being taken care of by us."
Qin Zhi hurriedly put down what she was holding, quickly walked over, and carefully took the baby from Jiang Jiyun's arms.
At this moment, Jiang Jiyun slumped into a chair with a sigh of relief, muttering weakly, "Oh my god, this little rascal is so naughty, unlike when Xiaobao was little, he was so well-behaved and obedient~ Uncle, I miss home so much!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wenming, who was arranging herbs, froze for a moment, a deep longing welling up in his heart.
But this protracted war is not yet over, and they can only grit their teeth and continue to fight bravely without hesitation.
Jiang Wenming told her, "It'll be soon. Leave your Uncle Xun and the others plenty of antidote pills and we'll head back. We'll check on He Zheng and the others' situation again when we pass through Suzhou, and then we'll really be home."
"Cough cough cough..."
Jiang Jiyun was deep in thought when he suddenly heard a soft cough.
Her heart tightened suddenly, and she quickly looked up. The little Yuanbao, who had been so lively just moments before, was now flushed and coughing incessantly.
Her expression instantly turned serious. She stood up quickly and walked briskly to Xiao Yuanbao's side.
She reached out and gently touched his burning forehead, asking anxiously, "Do you have a fever?"
Qin Zhi quickly reached out and touched Xiao Yuanbao's forehead, saying, "Hmm... it seems like he really does have a fever."
Qin Rui frowned, thoughtfully analyzing, "Children are too young and easily infected by germs. It's likely that he came into contact with a sick person and accidentally caught it. After all, we saw quite a few people coughing along the way."
Jiang Jiyun listened silently, thinking about how the city of Jinling seemed to be shrouded in the shadow of a virus, as if the whole city was truly "sick".
She paused for a moment, then turned and went back to her room, taking a bag of milk powder out of her backpack.
Open the bag, pour an appropriate amount of milk powder into a small bowl, add warm water and stir well.
After the water temperature dropped slightly, I poured out an antidote pill from the small bottle, carefully broke it in half with my fingers, and put one half in.
However, when Xiao Yuanbao smelled the medicine in the milk, he immediately turned his head to the side, closed his lips tightly, and refused to open his mouth to drink the medicine.
Jiang Jiyun quickly instructed Qin Zhi to hold the child firmly in place, and then reached out and pinched Xiao Yuanbao's nose.
Just as the little guy was forced to open his mouth because he couldn't breathe properly, Jiang Jiyun swiftly poured the bowl of bitter medicine straight into his mouth.
Little Yuanbao didn't even have time to react to what was happening, let alone cry or struggle, before he had already swallowed the whole bowl of medicine!
"Xiaoyun, your technique is so skillful and efficient. Did you often give medicine to children before?" Qin Rui, who was standing to the side, was surprised and couldn't help but ask curiously.
Jiang Jiyun gently put down the bowl in her hand and replied with a smile, "No, my brother has never been sick. It's just that I was particularly afraid of taking bitter medicine when I was a child, and I would always act up and refuse to obey when taking medicine."
"So my mother and sixth grandfather used this method to deal with me." As she said this, she couldn't help but recall that warm memory, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
For this reason, Jiang Jiyun has always believed that every child should have a rich, colorful, and fulfilling childhood.
Even seemingly insignificant things like feeding medicine, and the occasional beatings and punishments, can become an indispensable part of children's growth.
At that moment, a slight noise caught everyone's attention.
A woman dressed in plain clothes, her face completely covered by clothing except for a pair of bright eyes, appeared at the door.
She called out loudly to the people in the courtyard, "Excuse me, is there a doctor here? I just passed by and smelled a strong aroma of Chinese medicine. I wonder if you have anyone in your household who is skilled in medicine?"
