Chapter 56 Liu Xiaocui is sick

So, Qiao Erzhu found his old good brothers and decided to teach Liu Xiaocui a lesson.But he was afraid that Qiao Jiarong would find out, so he deliberately didn't go home with her.

Qiao Erzhu and a group of his friends skipped a class and went to the field to kill two snakes.

Put it on the only way for Liu Xiaocui to go home, and then they hid in the nearby grass and waited for Liu Xiaocui to pass by.

Although Liu Xiaocui is older than her classmates, most girls are afraid of snakes, and Liu Xiaocui is no exception.When he saw the two snakes blocking the road, he was so frightened that he cried loudly on the spot, but he had no strength to escape.

Qiao Erzhu and others who were hiding nearby saw Liu Xiaocui crying.Several people jumped out from behind the bushes and laughed, pointing at Liu Xiaocui and calling her a coward.

At this time, Liu Xiaocui was so frightened that she couldn't hear what the people around her said except crying.

But Qiao Erzhu and the others didn't notice Liu Xiaocui's abnormality. After laughing, they carried their schoolbags and walked away, leaving Liu Xiaocui squatting on the spot alone and crying.

Later, a villager from their village passed by.Seeing that something was wrong with Liu Xiaocui, he sent her home.

The two dead snakes on the road were also kicked by the villager into the dry ditch next to them.

Liu Xiaocui, who was sent home, had a high fever that night and kept screaming, "There are snakes, there are snakes."

It wasn't until dawn that the fever slowly subsided.But the whole person has no spirit, her parents saw the child like this, so they had to ask the classmates to help her and the teacher to take a leave of absence.

Qiao Jiarong only found out that Liu Xiaocui asked for leave when she went to school the next day, but no one knew why she asked for leave when she asked the students around her.

Qiao Jiarong was a little worried about her, and planned to visit her house after school.

School is over at eleven o'clock in the afternoon and school is not until two o'clock in the afternoon.There were three hours in the middle, and a trip to Xiaoyushu Village not far away was completely rushed.

However, Qiao Jiarong didn't know where Liu Xiaocui's home was.All I know is that her family is from Xiaoyushu Village in front of me, and I have to ask the students from the same village after school.

Seeing that Liu Xiaocui didn't come to school, Qiao Erzhu, the culprit, was worried and guilty.

But thinking that no one would rob Qiao Jiarong from him, he quickly forgot that worry, and happily went to play with his classmates.

When school was over at noon, Qiao Jiarong was anxious to see Liu Xiaocui without waiting for Qiao Erzhu to leave.After she got home and had dinner, she told Qiao Tieniu and took two apples to Xiaoyushu Village.

When I arrived at Xiaoyushu Village, I saw several children playing in the open space at the entrance of the village.

Although Qiao Jiarong didn't know them, she knew that some of these students went to school in their Big Yushu Village.

So, Qiao Jiarong took out a small handful of fruit candies from his pocket and came to them and said, "Does anyone know where Liu Xiaocui's family lives?"

"do not know."

"Who are you? Why are you looking for her?"

"Who is Liu Xiaocui?"

"Stupid! Liu Xiaocui is Liu Dabao's eldest sister."

"I know, her house is the last one in this row by the river. The one with a lot of haystacks at the door."

When the children who were playing at first heard Qiao Jiarong's words, they all started talking in a hurry.Some say they don't know, some say they know.

Qiao Jiarong heard the news he wanted from it, and distributed the fruit candies in his hand to these children one by one.They all happily took it and put it in their mouths.

The children who ate the candy were even more active. One child who knew Liu Xiaocui's family said to Qiao Jiarong while eating the candy, "I know where Liu Xiaocui's home is? I'll take you there."

When the others heard about it, they also said, "I'll take you there too."

Qiao Jiarong thanked them with a smile and said: "Thank you, I already know." After speaking, he left.

The children who got the candy just now were very disappointed. They thought they could get another candy!
Qiao Jiarong didn't know what these children were thinking. She knew the direction of Liu Xiaocui's house and ran to her house immediately.

When I came to Liu Xiaocui's house, I was a little surprised to see his adobe house, which was much smaller than ordinary houses.Then I thought of Liu Xiaocui's age, maybe this is the reason why she went to school late!
Liu Xiaocui's house does not have a courtyard wall, but there is a large drying field.

The youngest son of the Liu family was playing in the sun-drying field when he saw Qiao Jiarong walking in.He asked curiously, "Who are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for Liu Xiaocui, is she at home?" Qiao Jiarong said squatting in front of Liu Dabao.

Seeing that Qiao Jiarong didn't answer her question, Liu Dabao yelled in the direction of the kitchen, "Mom! Someone is looking for eldest sister."

"Who is it!" A middle-aged woman ran out of the kitchen and said.

Liu Dabao pointed to Qiao Jiarong and said, "That's her."

Seeing the person coming, Qiao Jiarong guessed that it was Liu Xiaocui's mother.He went up to say hello and said, "Hello, Auntie, I'm Liu Xiaocui's classmate. She didn't go to school today, so I'll come to see her."

"Oh! It's Xiao Cui's classmate! Come in quickly.

Xiaocui had a fever last night, and she was so weak that she was still lying on the bed!So, I asked her for leave. "Liu Xiaocui's mother said to her while leading Qiao Jiarong into the house.

Qiao Jiarong followed her into the room of Liu Xiaocui and her sister.

Probably hearing voices outside, Liu Xiaocui in the room had already sat up from the bed.After seeing Qiao Jiarong coming in, she said happily, "Qiao Jiarong, why are you here?"

"I see that you didn't go to school today, so I came to see you." Then, he put the apple he brought over on the chair beside Liu Xiaocui's bed.

Seeing the apples Qiao Jiarong brought, Liu Xiaocui's mother smiled until her eyes narrowed.She brought Qiao Jiarong a bench and said, "Sit down, Auntie is going to get you a glass of water."

"Thank you, auntie! No, I'm leaving right now, and I have to go to school soon!" Qiao Jiarong quickly refused.

Liu Xiaocui's mother smiled and said nothing, and left after pouring sugar water for Qiao Jiarong.

After she left, Qiao Jiarong asked Liu Xiaocui, "Why do you have a fever? Did you catch a cold yesterday?"

"I didn't catch a cold, but I was scared by the snake on the road yesterday." Liu Xiaocui shook her head and said.

Liu Xiaocui's words surprised Qiao Jiarong, how could there be snakes on the road where people come and go?Besides, snakes usually swim away quickly when they see people, so it won't scare her out of illness!
Seeing that Qiao Jiarong didn't seem to believe it, Liu Xiaocui quickly assured her, "Really, that snake's death is terrible, it looks so scary."

Thinking of the scene at that time, Liu Xiaocui shook her body unconsciously.

Seeing her, Qiao Jiarong hurriedly stepped forward to hug her and comforted her and said, "Don't be afraid, next time you see them, close your eyes and use a branch to pick them aside, and you won't be able to see them."

In fact, Liu Xiaocui is not timid, but she is very afraid of snakes.

But after Qiao Jiarong's comfort, Liu Xiaocui felt that she was not so afraid of snakes anymore.At least, now that she closes her eyes, she will no longer think about the appearance of the dead snake yesterday.

Qiao Jiarong and Liu Xiaocui talked for another hour, then bid her farewell and left for school.
