Chapter 330 - "Where did you run into her? Tell me in details!" (2)
Tong Xuelu quickly put her clothes on and went to wake up Tong Jiaming.
She handed him the key to the restaurant and had him go and unlock the door to the restaurant for her.
Both Tong Jiaming and Tong Jiaxin got nervous when they saw that their little sister was running a high fever.
Tong Jiaxin, “Big Sister, let me skip school today and go to the hospital with you!”
Tong Xuelu thought about it some and nodded. “Alright, have Jiaming take the day off for you when he gets to school. Let’s go.”
She would need to run around to make payments, etc., at the hospital. It would be helpful to have someone with her watching Tong Mianmian when necessary.
Tong Xuelu put some clothes on Tong Mianmian before she pulled out a thick padded jacket and wrapped her up in it.
If Tong Jiaxin would be going with, then the fastest way to go was to take the bicycle.
When Tong Jiaxin saw that she was going to ride the bicycle, his eyes widened instantly. “Big Sister, you know how to ride a bicycle?”
Tong Xuelu said shamelessly, “There is nothing that your sister can’t do under the sun!”
Tong Jiaxin, “……”
Tong Xuelu pushed the bicycle outside of the house. Soon as Tong Jiaxin got on the bicycle, she immediately pushed down on the paddle and the bicycle shot out.
She had practiced a few times previously. It was just that the boys didn’t know about it was all.
They rushed to the hospital and the doctor informed them that Tong Mianmian was running a 39 degree Celsius fever and that if that had gone on any longer, it might have caused damage to her brain.
Tong Xuelu felt very guilty about it. She slept too well at night and rarely ever woke up.
With Tong Mianmian’s high temperature, it must have started in the middle of the night, but Tong Xuelu did not notice that at all.
That was on her.
The doctor wanted to give Tong Mianmian a fever-reducing shot. The little bun was so scared that her black round eyes welled up with tears.
Tong Xuelu comforted her quickly. “Mianmian good girl. You will recover in no time with a shot. You can tough it out!”
The little bun’s big eyes blinked. Her eyes still teary, she asked, “What is tough, Big Sister? Is it edible?”
Tong Xuelu felt that she was both pitiful and cute. “Tough means to be brave. It means you won’t be afraid of the needle.”
Tong Mianmian pushed her little lips out. “Big Sister, Mianmian is not tough. Mianmian is afraid of the needle.”
Tong Xuelu had no choice but to hold her in her arms and promised to make her good food later on. That finally made the little bun promised that she would tough up a little.
But just a little.
And it was just a little. She was bawling after the needle went into her arm.
They still needed to stay at the hospital for a little while longer for observation after the shot.
Tong Xuelu saw that Tong Jiaming had arrived as well after she had made the payment.
“Big Sister, how’s Mianmian? Is she still running a fever?”
Tong Xuelu, “She just got the fever-reduction shot. Did you go and unlock the restaurant door?”
Tong Jiaming nodded. “I did. But you are now the manager of the government, Big Sister. Is it okay for you to skip work?”
Tong Xuelu, “It will be fine. I will head over in a little bit.”
The two walked over to the patient room as they talked.
As soon as they had walked away, someone walked out stealthy from the dark of a corner.
Uncle Zong was so excited that his face was beet red. So Miss Young Grass worked as a manager at the government-operated restaurant!
Uncle Zong made a mad dash back to the military compound after he left the hospital.
Commander! I have something important to report!
Uncle Zong was out of breath when he got home.
Old Mr. Wan said with contempt when he spotted Uncle Zong like that. “Xiao Zong, you are no spring chick anymore. You’ve gotta be more careful with your health.”
Uncle Zong, “Commander. I, I ran into Young Grass……”
Old Mr. Wan’s eyes widened and he quickly dragged Uncle Zong back with him. “Where did you see her? Tell me the details!”
