Chapter 13

Li Su lowered his head and pursed his lips, his eyes were wet, but he didn't cry.The thick cotton trousers were taken off by Father Li, and the long johns inside were also lifted up, exposing the red-burned calves.

Mother Li has always known that her mother-in-law is patriarchal and partial to her uncle's family, but she never expected that she would be so indiscriminate.Mother Li glanced at her husband who was squatting on the ground without saying a word, and squatted down with red eyes to hug Li Suheng.

She is a woman, and it is still a bit difficult to hold a seven-year-old child like this. Seeing this, Li's father whispered, "Let me come..." Li's mother glanced at him, did not speak, and still carried Li Su by herself and left go out.

It was getting dark, and Li Su was held in the arms of Li's mother. Her cotton trousers were taken off, and her long johns were wet again, shivering from the cold wind.Li's father chased him up from behind, took off his coat and put it on Li Su's body, and said to Li's mother flatteringly, "Let's switch hugs, the Li village health center is still a little far away."

Mother Li didn't say a word, she still carried Li Su and walked forward, but Li Su called him in a low voice, "Abba, it hurts." She didn't cry, but just sniffed from time to time.Father Li was a little embarrassed because of his wife's ignorance, but when he heard his daughter's voice, he felt guilty all of a sudden. He touched Li Su's head and comforted him softly, "Su Su, be good, you won't be here soon. It hurts."

Li Su's eyes were red, he glanced at him, nodded and rested his head on his mother's chest, and stopped talking.The pain from the burnt part of her leg was far less than the sting in her heart, but she wanted her father to feel the pain too, so there would be no next time.

"Doctor Liu," the doctor in the health center was eating, and when he heard the voice, he stood up and saw Li's mother holding the baby, so he quickly put a bowl to meet Li Suhong's calf, and asked quickly, "What's the matter?" Mom wiped her eyes and answered with a choked voice, "The boiling water burned my legs."

Usually there is only one doctor on duty in the clinic at night, and Li's mother acts as an assistant to help Dr. Liu treat Li Su's burns.

When Dr. Liu popped the blister, he subconsciously looked up at Li Su. He wanted to calm down, but saw the little girl tightly pursing her lips, her eyes were red, and her tears looked bright under the light.He didn't say anything, just lowered his head and concentrated on treating the burn.

The medicine was simply prescribed, and Dr. Liu prescribed some anti-inflammatory and anti-infective medicines.Most of the doctors in rural health centers have to serve as nurses and other roles at the same time. Dr. Liu went to get the medicine and handed it to Mama Li. It's troublesome."

Mother Li took the medicine, and before she could speak, she heard Father Li ask, "Doctor Liu, how much is it?" Mother Li turned her head away and stopped looking at her husband.

Although Dr. Liu noticed that the atmosphere between the couple was a bit weird, it was a family affair after all and had nothing to do with him. He glanced at the list and answered succinctly, "18 yuan five," and then explained, "Anti-inflammatory The medicine is the best one I got, so it’s a little more expensive.”

Children's immunity is not particularly good. Although the current weather is not easy to be infected, but the burnt part is on the calf, it is better to pay attention to it.After speaking, he rummaged through the pockets of his white coat, and finally found what he was looking for. He stretched out his hand in front of Li Su, and said with a smile, "Susu, guess what's inside. Give it to you."
