"Is this kid going crazy?"
"No way. She doesn't have a fever anymore."
"Then why is she still unconscious?"
In her dream, Yun Que'er heard people chattering beside her. Finally, she opened her eyes impatiently.
"What are you doing? I'm trying to sleep... It's so noisy..." Yun Que'er murmured.
The people around her were overjoyed.
"She's awake! She's finally awake!"
Yun Que'er looked up and found it quite lively around her. Her three elder siblings were there, so was Old Doctor Ji, and even Ji Chengxuan was there.
Suddenly being cared about by so many people, Yun Que'er felt a bit unaccustomed. More importantly, as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw several pairs of eyes staring at her. Yun Que'er felt a bit scared.
She quickly sat up and shrank towards the wall. "Why are you all staring at me like this?"
"Don't even mention it." Yun Fujin said with lingering fear as he patted his chest. "Do you know you've been sleeping for three days?"
"Three days?" Yun Que'er was a bit confused.
She felt like she had just taken a little nap and didn't even dream much. How could it be three days?
Old Doctor Ji stepped forward to take Yun Que'er's temperature again. After confirming that she was completely okay, he left with Ji Chengxuan.
After that, still a bit dazed, Yun Que'er was fed a bowl of rice by Yun Fujin. Then she understood what had happened in these three days from Yun Fujin's words.
That day after she fell asleep, she had a high fever again. Yun Fujin wanted to take her to the clinic, but no matter how he called her, she didn't wake up. Although the weather outside was still very hot, Yun Fujin was worried that if he carried the sleeping Yun Que'er out, she might catch a cold and get even sicker. So he could only call Old Doctor Ji over.
Then Old Doctor Ji gave her an acupuncture treatment and asked Yun Fujin to give her some medicine. Anyway, the fever subsided, but Yun Que'er just remained in a daze and didn't wake up, which scared everyone.
They almost thought that Yun Que'er had damaged her brain due to the fever or had some other problems caused by the fever, which was why she couldn't wake up.
"You can't play in the water anymore in the future," Yun Fujin said. "Especially... in the middle of the night. This time you just caught a cold from the cold and were sick for a few days. If you accidentally fall into the water next time, I don't know how to save you."
Yun Que'er really didn't expect that she could be sick for so long and make Yun Fujin so worried.
That day she just made up a random excuse and said that she had gone to play by the river. In fact, wasn't it because she had received punishment for failing to complete the task?
Speaking of which, this world is really unfair.
Obviously she and Ji Chengxuan had been caught in the rain together, but Ji Chengxuan only had a headache for a day and then was fine. But Yun Que'er ended up in this state.
Yun Que'er really suspected that the system was only targeting her.
She sat on the edge of the bed, sighing. Listening to Yun Fujin's earnest admonition, she could only nod in agreement and couldn't say a word.
Fortunately, Yun Que'er woke up in the morning, so she wouldn't have trouble sleeping at night.
Yun Que'er wanted to get out of bed to stretch her limbs, which had become a bit sore from sleeping for so long. But Yun Fujin pressed her back on the bed and refused to let her get out no matter what.
Seeing that Yun Fujin had been worried about her for so long and there were several dark circles under his eyes, Yun Que'er couldn't bear it, so she obediently obeyed.
She felt a bit bored staying at home and couldn't help but let her mind wander.
Thinking about Liu Kui's accident a few days ago, she always wanted to inquire about it. But Yun Fujin was very secretive about it and was busy with the farm work. He really didn't have time to talk to Yun Que'er in detail, so Yun Que'er had to give up.
Fortunately, in the afternoon, Ji Chengxuan came on his own initiative.
"All of Liu Kui's pigs and sheep have been taken away," Ji Chengxuan said while peeling an apple for Yun Que'er. "This matter is too big. Just taking away the pigs and sheep is not enough. The secretary's intention is to take Liu Kui to the higher - level authorities for interrogation after the investigation is clear and discuss how to deal with him. But guess what?"
Hearing Ji Chengxuan say this, Yun Que'er realized that it was not good news and quickly asked.
"What happened? Is there any change? Hurry up and tell me..."
Ji Chengxuan let out a long sigh. "A new policy has suddenly come out. Not only can people farm their own land, but the quota for raising poultry and livestock has also been relaxed. Although Liu Kui broke the rules, he only needs to send away the excess pigs and sheep he had before. That means Liu Kui can not only continue to raise them in the future, but also raise more, and he doesn't have to hide it anymore."
Unexpectedly, Liu Kui was so lucky that he could survive this disaster safely.
It was just like when the four members of the Yun family were sent to the police station and were waiting to be dealt with, the policy of household - based contract responsibility system was suddenly announced.
Fate is really amazing.
Yun Que'er sighed. "As long as Liu Kui can be quiet, we don't have to go through so much trouble."
Ji Chengxuan waved his hand. "You're wrong. We did think about making Liu Kui behave himself, but we had no way to do it and never took any action. What we did that day was just follow the system's task to protect a cultural relic site."
Yun Que'er raised her eyebrows. From this perspective, what they did was not without a reason.
It was just that the ending was a bit disappointing.
In the future, Liu Kui will not only not be more modest, but will be even more arrogant.
Yun Que'er massaged her temples. "What about the abandoned school?"
The main task of her and Ji Chengxuan was to protect that school, so exposing Liu Kui's matter was just a by - product.
"Don't worry. Liu Kui actually helped us a big favor," Ji Chengxuan said. "The person who partnered with Liu Kui in business is a purchaser from a big restaurant in the county. Liu Kui has been supplying pork to them, so they got to know each other. In order to facilitate future cooperation, Liu Kui wanted to curry favor with this purchaser. He offered to provide free breeding pigs for him in exchange for this man's participation in pig - raising. After this man was investigated, he confessed everything. He said that it was Liu Kui who asked him to raise the pigs in the school. I took the opportunity to tell the secretary that this school has a long history and can't be damaged casually. So the secretary has reported it to the higher - level authorities. Coincidentally, during the days when you were in a coma, there was news. The higher - level authorities decided to temporarily surround the school first. Maybe it will be renovated in the future."
Ji Chengxuan looked at Yun Que'er and showed a beaming smile.
"Maybe in the future, our district and our village will become a tourist attraction. Just think about it. We are the ones who will drive our village to get rich."
