283: Chapter 283: Sister Fairy_1 283: Chapter 283: Sister Fairy_1 By the time Qi Jingyi had left, Yang Ruxin also stepped out the door.
Since she didnât plan on buying anything, she didnât even carry a basket and traveled light.
But just as she left, she couldnât help stamping her foot, regretting not asking about those human traffickers earlier.
However, she soon let it go, reasoning that they were already involved, so she didnât need to worry, and went to town with a peaceful mind.
Hechun Hallâs backyard.
The little girl who had been unconscious was now awake, her eyes shining as she looked at her brother in front of her, âBrother, this isnât a dream, is it?
Have we really left that place?
WeâŠâ
âItâs not a dream,â Dabao sniffled, blowing on the porridge to cool it down before feeding it to his sister.
The porridge was delivered by a fellow apprentice from the pharmacy, following the instructions of the sister from yesterday, âWe encountered Sister Fairy.
All those bad people were caughtâŠâ
âGiggleâŠ
the porridge is so fragrant.â The little girl giggled, âBrother, eat some tooâŠâ
âBrother just ate a meat bun,â Dabao shook his head, âSister Fairy said that once you wake up, you should drink some porridge, so you can recover quicklyâŠâ
âWhen will Sister Fairy come over?â The little girl had not seen Yang Ruxin yet, but after waking up, she heard from her brother that a very beautiful sister had rescued them, and she was eager to meet that beautiful sister.
âAfter you finish the porridge and take your medicine, Sister Fairy will come,â Dabao coaxed his sister.
In reality, he didnât know when Yang Ruxin would come, but the doctor had said earlier that the sisterâs surname was Yang, so she must know the people at the medical hall.
If the sister didnât come, then once his sister was better, he would go find her to at least thank her in person.
âCough coughâŠâ The little girl started coughing after a few sips of porridge.
âTake it slow.â Dabao reached out to gently pat his sisterâs back.
âItâs okay, Iâll drink the porridge and take the medicine.â The little girl quickly calmed down, drank the porridge in large gulps, and then, with a wrinkled face, she drank down the dark medicinal brew.
âOpen your mouth.â Dabao, with a pained heart, wiped his sisterâs mouth.
The little girl opened her small mouth.
Dabao stuffed a piece of candy into her mouth.
âSo sweet.â The little girlâs big eyes instantly curled up.
âSister Fairy gave it to me, she said it will make the medicine less bitter.â
The little girl suddenly looked utterly content.
âJust go to sleep after you finish, Doctor Grandpa said that you need to sleep more to recover fasterâŠâ Dabao took a palm-leaf fan and fanned his sister.
âIf Sister Fairy comes, wake me up,â the little girl nodded, and then happily closed her eyes and soon fell asleep.
However, in her dreams, she mumbled âMomâ and then âDadâ.
Dabaoâs small hands clenched involuntarily, and he bit his lip.
He hated his own weakness, unable to protect himself or his little sister.
He believed their father was not dead; his father was so strong, how could he be gone?
But he also had no idea if they would ever find him againâŠ
Thinking of this, he felt a little guilty because he had not told Sister Fairy the truth; at the very least, he hadnât told her their real namesâŠ
Just then, footsteps and voices could be heard from outside.
Dabaoâs eyes lit up as he quickly got up and ran outside.
Indeed, he saw Yang Ruxin talking to a young assistant from the pharmacy and couldnât help but smile broadly, âSister FairyâŠâ
Yang Ruxin was inquiring about the little girlâs condition.
Seeing Dabao coming out, she waved at the assistant and walked over, âHow is your sister doing?â
