Chapter 9 Little Sister

"Oh, what a good girl, to have suffered such a great crime, what a crime!" Li Qishi wiped the corners of her eyes, wet a handkerchief, and gently wiped Qin Mengyao's gray face. Although the woman's appearance is not glamorous, she is also beautiful, especially her fair and delicate skin, which is not like those weather-beaten village women at all.

Qin Mengyao closed her eyes tightly, her thick black brows were knit into a ball, and she could vaguely see the tears flickering under her long eyelashes.The jet-black hair was spread messily on the pillow, making his face look paler and paler.

It's just that his forehead was still terribly burned. Li Qishi applied a cold towel on it and wet the pillow a lot, but it still didn't get better.

"What should I do?" Li Qi looked at Qin Mengyao's flushed cheeks, and turned around anxiously.Back then her eldest daughter, Ling Ling, had a high fever and was out of breath the next day. Li Qi almost died from crying. If Ling Ling was still alive, she should be about the same age as the woman on the bed.

Seeing Qin Mengyao like this now inevitably made Li Qishi think of sad things again. Every time he heard that slight moan, his heart couldn't help but lift up.

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Mengyao finally tried to open his eyes, but everything was still hazy like in a dream, and the middle-aged woman dressed as an ancient man was staring at him eagerly.

"Auntie, water, I think, drink water..." Qin Mengyao's chapped lips parted slightly, and he murmured in a low voice.Li Qishi was overjoyed, and stood up excitedly, "Hey, I'll go and pour you some water, right away!"

The water drawn from the well was very clear. Li Qishi scooped a bowl out of the bucket and brought it into the room. Qin Mengyao had already fallen asleep again. Li Qishi whispered a few times, but no one answered, and finally recovered. The mood became tense again.

The wet towel covering his forehead became warm again, but the heat dropped significantly.Although Qin Mengyao was still in a coma, he could already swallow the cold water Li Qishi fed into his mouth involuntarily. Seeing this, Li Qishi calmed down a little.

It has been nearly half a day since Li Dazhuang went into the mountain with his seventh uncle, and the sun had already slanted into the west mountain. Li Qishi looked at Qin Mengyao who was still awake on the bed, and sighed softly.

"Mother, mother, I'm hungry," Zhong'er ran to the gate covered in ashes, just as he saw Li Qishi going out, he ran forward like a little rabbit and hugged Li Qishi's thigh coquettishly.

"Shh, keep your voice down," Li Qi caressed her son's head, "There is a sister in the room who is sick, Zhong'er should keep your voice down, obediently don't disturb my sister, remember?"

Zhong'er opened his big round eyes and nodded vigorously, "Well, I remember," he raised his head in confusion after speaking, and looked at his mother, "Mother, is that sister a relative of our family?"

"There are so many relatives in our family, can you recognize them clearly?" Li Qishi looked at Zhong'er with a smile. Although this little guy is not big, he cares about a lot of things.

"Of course I do, uncle, aunt, third uncle, third aunt, oh, and Brother Xiaojing..." Zhong'er counted carefully with his fingers, like a little adult.

"Pfft..." Li Qi couldn't help laughing, "Silly boy, your uncle and third uncle are both members of our Li family, how can they be considered relatives, like your aunt, and your mother is in your grandmother's house?" The relatives at home can be regarded as relatives of our family!"

"Oh..." Zhong'er nodded thoughtfully, "What about sister Xiaozhi at the east end of our village, she said that she will be my daughter-in-law in the future, is she also a relative of our family?"

"Xiaozhi became your daughter-in-law, of course she is a member of our family, not a relative..." After Li Qishi finished speaking, she almost bent over with a smile, "I didn't expect our Zhonger to find a wife when he was only seven years old. very impressive!"

Zhong'er blushed, stooped and ran from Li Qi's side into the room, turned around and made a face at his mother who was still smiling, and muttered softly, "I don't want a daughter-in-law like Xiaozhi, He looks dark and annoying every day..."

He cautiously walked towards the bed. Yiren was sleeping on his stomach on the bed, but his face was turned to the bed. Zhong'er stood aside, not daring to speak out.
