Chapter 475 - 470: Troublesome Matters When Returning Home 05

Yan Jinsu first observed his sleeping face, with traces of yellowish eye discharge remaining at the corners of his eyes. She gently pried open Xiao Ba’s bright red lips, revealing a white tongue and blood-red lips, which were clear signs of internal heat!
Looking further, she noticed a strange odor in the child’s mouth and a small blister on his hard palate.
"Mom, please prepare some warm water and mix in some ’Houzao Powder’ for him to drink. Xiao Ba has internal heat." [The plot is fictitious, do not take it personally]
Seeing Lin Caixia nervously watching her, she smiled and reassured:
"Caixia, don’t worry. Xiao Ba has a throat inflammation and blisters, which is why he keeps getting fevers. Xiao Ba is also young and won’t communicate his discomfort to adults. Having a doctor look at it is useless, as they’re reluctant to use strong medicine. All they can do is let the child drink more water and take some mild western medicine, which makes the recovery slower."
When Lin Caixia heard "recurrent fevers," she nodded in agreement, "Sister-in-law, this medicine... Will it be okay for Xiao Ba to drink?"
Everything else is easy to say, but she is still not relieved about this.
"Don’t worry, this medicine is traditional Chinese medicine, not a western drug. Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi also need to drink it every three to five days, so you don’t have to worry about an overdose for Xiao Ba. Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi are also taking it, and grandma has gotten used to preparing it, haha."
Not trusting herself, she just said that much. Whether to drink it or not was left to Lin Caixia’s discretion.
