Chapter 323. Take back the item
Old man Hua waved his hand, "You’re overthinking it. I wanted water because I have some fever-reducing medicine, but it’s been sitting for a while, and I don’t know if it’s still effective."
"Really?" Liu Kai’s eyes sparkled with surprise and gratitude, thanking him repeatedly.
"Thank you, village chief, thank you, village chief." As for the part about the medicine’s effectiveness, Liu Kai didn’t even consider it. With his father burning up with fever like that, as long as there was medicine, he was endlessly grateful.
Any medicine is bound to be somewhat useful once taken.
Old man Hua pulled out a packet wrapped in oil-paper from his body, opened it, and took advantage of the chance to pour a pill from his hand into it as well.
Old man Hua didn’t dare to carelessly bring out his granddaughter’s medicine, as troublesome as it was, it would save a lot of hassle.
Once the tablet completely dissolved, old man Hua handed the bowl to Liu Kai.
"Thank you, thank you," Liu Kai didn’t know what to say anymore, so he kept saying thank you, then quickly, with Hua Qiang’s help, began feeding the concoction, bit by bit, into Liu Laotou’s mouth.
Fortunately, though unconscious, he still knew how to swallow, and half a bowl of medicine was fed entirely.
Whether it was Liu Kai’s illusion or not, after giving the medicine, he felt that his father’s breathing seemed to be smoother.
Carefully pulling up the ragged clothing on his father’s body, Liu Kai stared intently at the unconscious old man, and his eyes grew even more shadowy as he looked in the direction of the front yard.
"Wen Ge’er, stay in the backyard with your grandpa and mom, I’m going to get our things back."
