Chapter 183 A lot of fish

After Alan took Uncle Zhao's temperature, Su Nuannuan looked at it and found that the temperature had reached 40 degrees Celsius.

Without hesitation, Su Nuannuan handed the ibuprofen capsules from the package to Alan, asking her to feed them to Uncle Zhao Qi.

Uncle Zhao's temperature is quite high, so the most important thing now is to cool it down.

Before arriving, Su Nuannuan had learned that Uncle Zhao Qi had gone fishing with other islanders the previous night. During the fishing, Uncle Zhao Qi fell into the sea.

Because they went to a shallow area near the water, there were no large, dangerous fish. Therefore, Uncle Zhao was only soaked and did not encounter any danger.

Although fishermen wear waterproof leather jackets, Uncle Zhao fell right into one yesterday, and water seeped directly into his clothes. Furthermore, unwilling to give up fishing, he worked through most of the night in his wet clothes.

Uncle Zhao's situation is quite common among fishermen. However, it was too cold last night, and Uncle Zhao still couldn't avoid catching a cold.

Su Nuannuan felt helpless after hearing A Lan's description.

After determining that Uncle Zhao only had a cold and there was nothing seriously wrong, Su Nuannuan took out several kinds of medicine, intending to use them to trade for fish with Alan.

At this moment, Uncle Zhao also took the fever-reducing medicine that Su Nuannuan had brought.

Ibuprofen works very quickly to reduce fever. Uncle Zhao felt much better shortly after taking it and stopped talking nonsense.

Su Nuannuan knew this was only temporary. Uncle Zhao would still have a fever. Therefore, Su Nuannuan left a few ibuprofen pills for Alan to give to Uncle Zhao when he had a high fever.

At the same time, Su Nuannuan also taught Alan how to read a thermometer. She also gave Alan the thermometer she had taken out.

Alan was very happy to hear that Su Nuannuan had given her the thermometer.

"Sister, I will definitely ask my mother to give you all the fish in the house."

Seeing Alan's innocent and happy smile, Su Nuannuan smiled back. She had many of these things in her space, but they were rare items for Alan's family.

After teaching Alan how to use a thermometer, Su Nuannuan took out the medicine she had prepared.

“Once your dad’s fever breaks, he won’t need to take ibuprofen anymore. These are the medicines I prepared; one packet three times a day.”

Su Nuannuan took the medicine for treating Uncle Zhao Qi out of the packaging and wrapped the amount to be taken at once in paper.

It wasn't that Su Nuannuan didn't want to give the medicine directly, but the packaging was just too conspicuous. Currently, only overseas countries possess this kind of production technology.

Su Nuannuan felt that the moment she took the item out and gave it to the other person, the other person would be mistaken for an enemy agent by the soldiers on the island.

Therefore, Su Nuannuan resorted to this desperate measure.

Alan carefully remembered Su Nuannuan's words and put away the medicine packets Su Nuannuan gave her.

Just then, a gasp came from inside the room.

"Oh, Lan, your father's fever has gone down!"

Upon hearing her mother's voice, Alan's face lit up with joy, and her eyes filled with gratitude as she looked at Su Nuannuan.

Father is the pillar of the family. Ah Lan still can't imagine what will happen to the family if Uncle Zhao Qi falls ill.

At this moment, Su Nuannuan reminded Alan.

“Your father’s fever is only temporary. He will have a fever again in a while. If it reaches 39 degrees Celsius, give him an ibuprofen tablet. But if the temperature is below 39 degrees Celsius, you don’t need to do anything about it. If your father’s fever is gone by tomorrow, you can give him the medicine I gave you. I believe your father will be better in a few days.”

After hearing this, Alan nodded vigorously.

After entering the house, Ah Lan finished explaining things to her mother and then asked her mother to take care of her father.

She ran away and continued her transaction with Su Nuannuan.

Su Nuannuan had already given her the medicine, and Alan wouldn't go back on her word. She planned to give Su Nuannuan all the big fish her father had caught yesterday. After Su Nuannuan came out, Cheng Junqi came running over excitedly. Su Nuannuan took out a handful of White Rabbit milk candies from her pocket and stuffed them into Cheng Junqi's pocket.

"Junqi, are you tired? Auntie is waiting for your sister Alan to bring the fish. Have some candy first and wait for Auntie, okay?"

Cheng Junqi's eyes lit up when he saw the White Rabbit milk candy. Then, upon hearing Su Nuannuan's words, he nodded vigorously and said in a serious voice.

"Okay, Auntie. I promise I'll get the mission done!"

Seeing Cheng Junqi's serious little face, Su Nuannuan was charmed by his cuteness.

After ruffling the other person's head, Su Nuannuan told him to wait on the side.

Alan saw Su Nuannuan casually grabbing a handful of White Rabbit candies, and a look of envy flashed in her eyes. She had never eaten White Rabbit candies in her entire life.

Seeing so many milk candies, Alan felt the air was filled with a wonderful milky aroma.
Swallowing hard, Alan forced her gaze away. Although she was a little greedy, she knew her limits. Having dealt with the people in the residential compound for years, Alan knew how to avoid being disliked.

Su Nuannuan could see right through Alan's little actions.

In Su Nuannuan's eyes, Alan was just a child. It's just that, because of life's circumstances, he was more mature than other children.

Su Nuannuan took a handful of White Rabbit milk candies from her pocket and handed them to Alan.

"Ah Lan, here's some candy for you."

Lan had never seen so many candies before. She had seen the children in the residential compound eat them before, but it was only one candy at a time.

They said this candy is very expensive.

Seeing that Su Nuannuan gave so much at once, Alan immediately waved his hand and said.

"Sister, no need, I don't eat candy."

Su Nuannuan could have given her medicine in exchange for fish. But now, Alan wouldn't accept a whole bunch of White Rabbit milk candies offered by the other party.

Su Nuannuan saw Alan's persistence, thought for a moment, and said.

"Ah Lan, how about this? I'm not very strong, could you help me carry the fish to the family compound later?"

Alan thought of the big fish in her fish tank, then looked at Su Nuannuan's slender frame. Finally, Alan nodded and agreed.

However, Alan did not take all the White Rabbit candies that Su Nuannuan gave her; she only took three.

Su Nuannuan could tell at a glance that A Lan wanted to give the money to her parents.

Su Nuannuan already knew Alan's personality. Unable to force him, she could only put the candy in her pocket.

However, when Su Nuannuan was about to leave, she still found a place to put the candy down.

Alan led Su Nuannuan to the room where the fish were kept.

Su Nuannuan was prepared, and when she came back again, she was already used to the smells here.

Upon seeing the contents of the room, Su Nuannuan's first reaction was: So many fish!

Upon entering the room, one is immediately greeted by various large water tanks. The tanks are filled with clear seawater, and each tank contains three or four fish.

Besides these, there are shrimp, crabs, and various shellfish kept in large basins.

When Su Nuannuan saw it, she felt like she had accidentally wandered into a seafood market.

She rubbed her hands together, already eager to make her selection.
