16: Chapter 16: Skin Trauma_1 16: Chapter 16: Skin Trauma_1 âDonât just stand there, hurry and find a clean cloth, soak it and wipe Momâs palms, soles, and armpitsâŠâ Yang Ruxin couldnât bother with the little girlâs surprise, she was no longer the former head of the household, change was inevitable, and she didnât want to hide it, it was essential they get used to her changes quickly, of course, if necessary, she was also willing to make up some lie about encountering a Fairy or something to comfort them.
Where was there a towel in the house?
Yang Erni immediately tore a piece of her own clothes into a rag, then divided it into several smaller pieces, and they all carefully began to dab alcohol on Xun Huiâs body to wipe her downâŠ
Yang Ruxin frowned, Erniâs clothesâŠ
they were almost like the uniform of the elders in the Beggarâs Guild, of course, not just Erniâs, out of the six family members, only Yang Rufeng and Siniâs clothes barely qualified as clothing, the rest had patches on top of patches, probably no one would pick them up even if they were thrown on the street.
It seemed necessary to find a way to make money and change the situation quickly, otherwise, they could get by in the summer, but in winter they might freeze to death or become disabled.
While she was pondering this, Yang Ruxin suddenly gasped, feeling a stinging sensation when her palm touched the alcohol.
âBig sister, whatâs wrong?â Yang Erni looked up.
âItâs nothing,â Yang Ruxin shook her head and glanced at the palm of her right hand, âI might have been pricked when I fell into the ditch earlierâŠâ
âIs it serious?â As soon as she heard this, Erni urgently reached out to grab Yang Ruxinâs hand, âWhy didnât Uncle Li notice when he treated you earlier?
Are you bleeding?â
âItâs alright, just a superficial woundâŠâ Yang Ruxin quickly clenched her fist, âHurry and wipe Mom, donât stop, we need to keep her temperature from rising, otherwise, even if the doctor comes, she might end up brain-damagedâŠâ
âI donât want Mom to become a brain-damaged,â tears welled up in Siniâs eyes.
âWith me here, I wonât let Mom become brain-damaged,â Yang Ruxin smiled, âHurry and wipe, this thing can reduce the fever, as long as her temperature drops, sheâll be fine.â
âBig sister, if we do this, Mom really wonât become brain-damaged and wonât die?â Sini rubbed Xun Huiâs palms vigorously but couldnât help asking.
âRightâŠâ Yang Ruxin felt a bit disheartened, in such a desperate situation, her assurance sounded unconvincing, but she couldnât just say nothing, after allâŠ
she was the eldest daughter of this family, their father had died, their mother was a pushover, so if she couldnât get back to her original world, she would just have to farm and take care of the family here.
To survive, one must never lose hope, regardless of the circumstances.
Just like in her past life, she had once fought in underground fighting for money, and although her opponent demanded she last three rounds before going down, by the second round, she could barely hold on, but for those hundred thousand yuan, she still gritted her teeth and stood upâŠ
It was that hundred thousand yuan that allowed her to open her own barbecue shop, gave her and her band of orphaned brothers a legitimate livelihood, and a solid foundation for survivalâŠ
Sini immediately smiled and scrubbed with even more vigor.
âMom seems not to be so hot anymoreâŠâ After Erni scrubbed for a while, she went over to test Xun Huiâs temperature and suddenly looked up with joy.
Yang Ruxin also hurriedly checked, and sure enough, the temperature seemed to be dropping, it seemed to be working, and she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Just at that moment, Yang Sanni burst in like a gust of wind: âUncle Li is hereâŠâ
