Chapter 1196: Xiao'ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

Axian developed a fever in the morning, when Nan Feng and Brother Ye had already gone to the Potato Garden, leaving Xia Dabao as the only one at home to watch over Axian's awakening. But even as the sun rose, Axian still hadn't gotten out of bed. Xia Dabao felt a bit annoyed, thinking to herself what a lazy bug this child was becoming, and went in to tug on Axian's ear, only to find she couldn't wake him up no matter how hard she tried.

When she touched Axian's forehead, oh my, it was so hot. He surely had a fever.

And it was not a mild one.

Xia Dabao then thought about calling Brother Ye and Nan Feng back, since they had experience with children's fevers. They knew what kind of water to drink, which herbs to pick for reducing the fever, and if that didn't work, they would need to find a doctor. However, there was no decent doctor in the village; they would have to go to town or ask neighbors for help.
