Chapter 15: Sleeping Was More Comfortable

At night, Xiaomi successfully fed her father and brother the cold medicine. When she touched Dawa’s forehead, he clearly felt a little feverish.

Fortunately, the temperature was not high. Coupled with the timely arrival of the cold medicine and the nourishment of the spiritual spring water, the fever quickly subsided. The next day, he was full of energy again.

After all, Jiang Hu was an adult and had a stronger resistance. He did not have much of a reaction. However, when he was about to go to the river in the morning, he was stopped by Erniang. She gave him a simple raincoat that she made out of thatch last night.

“It’s still raining. It sounds even heavier than yesterday. Dawa, don’t follow Father, lest you catch a cold.”

The eager Dawa instantly wilted. “Mother, why don’t you make a raincoat for me too? Then I can go with Father.”

The fish soup last night was delicious and there was fish meat to eat. He had been eating even in his dreams at night and was not hungry at all.

However, just as Dawa finished speaking, he was knocked on the head by Jiang Hu, who had yet to go out. “Why don’t you know how to do it yourself? Your mother hasn’t recovered yet, and she still has to take care of your younger siblings.”

Dawa knew that he was in the wrong and pursed his lips. “Then I’ll make my own raincoat today. Father, you have to bring me along next time.”

He wanted to see his father catch the fish with his own eyes.

“No problem,” Jiang Hu said and went out. Before he left, he paid special attention to the surroundings.

Perhaps the rain was heavier today, so the sparrows did not come out.

Fortunately, there were still 10 sparrows left at home yesterday and there were fish also. If he ate less every day, there should be enough to eat for a few days.

Perhaps because of the weather, Xiaomi was not in high spirits today. Fortunately, the house was airtight and rainproof and it was warm in the house.

There was a pile of thatch in the corner of the house. Dawa took a bundle and learned how to make a straw raincoat from his mother while Erni played with Xiaomi and Bruiser.

After being nourished by the spiritual spring water during this period of time, Bruiser finally became a little more energetic. He interacted with his second sister for a while before resuming his sleep.

Xiaomi did not enter the space. After all, sleeping for too long would worry her family, so she kept herself occupied by squinting at Erni and Bruiser.

Outside, there was the patter of rain. It was not loud, but it sounded dense. But from the looks of it, this spring rain would probably last for a few days.

She had placed some spiritual spring water in the wooden basin where the fish were kept yesterday. If her father would not be so idle as to change the water again, the fish in that basin would definitely live for a few more days.

It seemed to have been more than 10 days since she was born. In another 20 days, she could go out with her mother.

Jiang Hu returned quickly. Fortunately, he caught a few more fish. Although there were not as many as yesterday, it was enough to make the family very happy.

In the morning, he made fish soup as usual. He did not dig for wild vegetables because it rained the day before. They had already eaten all the previous ones, so there was only fish soup today. There was more soup than fish, but it was good to save a meal.

After dinner, Dawa volunteered to wash the dishes. Jiang Hu was at the door washing the diapers. The door was ajar. The gap was not facing the bed and there was no wind. This made the room brighter.

“Erniang, I realized that sparrows love places that have been watered with diaper-washing water. Do you think the insects in that area are fatter?”

Xiaomi groaned in her swaddling clothes. Of course. She and Bruiser had drunk the most spiritual spring water. There must be a certain amount of spiritual energy in their excrement. They watered the vegetable fields, nourished the microorganisms and various insects in the fields, and attracted animals that fed on them.

She believed that after the manure in the latrine at home was poured on the ground, it would have the same effect. After all, everyone in the family had drunk spiritual spring water.

Erniang had eaten well these past two days and was even more energetic. She was nimbly making a straw raincoat for Dawa and did not miss Jiang Hu’s words.

“That’s possible. This vegetable garden that has been abandoned for many years is now watered every day. The grass seeds and insect eggs in the ground must have come alive.”

Jiang Hu nodded seriously. After some thought, he poured the diaper-washing water on another spot.

“Erniang, since birds like to dig for food over there, I’ll look for insects and earthworms there later. I might also be able to catch more fish.

“By the way, there are also those small weeds. Some fish can eat grass. It’s probably going to rain for the next few days. Anyway, there are no sparrows on rainy days. I’ll go to the river and catch more fish. It’s easier to catch fish on rainy days.”

“Then be careful. Wear your raincoat and don’t catch a cold.”

“Mother, what about me? Is my raincoat almost done? I want to catch insects and fish with Father!”

Dawa came over after washing the dishes and heard his parents talking about catching fish. He immediately hopped into the room.

“Alright, alright. It’ll be done soon. Look at how anxious you are. Come over and change into these shoes first.”

The shoes were also straw shoes. It had to be said that Erniang was really good with her hands. She knew how to make straw clothes and straw shoes, and she made them very well.

“No need, Mother. I’m wearing these today. These are about to break apart. If they break apart, I can throw them away. Keep the new ones for now.”

Dawa carried the straw shoes and put them aside. When he returned, he happened to see Xiaomi looking at him with wide eyes. He quickly leaned closer to coax her.

“Sanni, stay at home with Mother. Brother will catch fish for Mother to eat. Mother will be full after eating them and you will also be full.”

Although he was only five years old and a boy at that, he was good at coaxing people.

Xiaomi held out her hand. Brother, you have to be careful. The road is slippery in the rain. Don’t fall into the river.

When Dawa saw Xiaomi reaching out and calling out, he immediately became happy. “Mother, Sanni wants me to carry her!”

As he spoke, he picked up Xiaomi and drooled on her face. “Haha, does Sanni want to eat fish too? Don’t be anxious. You can eat it when you grow up.”

Erniang wanted to stop him, but she saw that Dawa was carrying her properly and Xiaomi did not cry. She simply said, “Be careful. Don’t drop your sister.”

“Don’t worry, Mother. I’m hugging her very tightly.”

Dawa had even forgotten about digging for insects. After hugging Xiaomi for a while, he switched to Bruiser. Unfortunately, Bruiser did not give him face. He kept his eyes closed and slept soundly, not even looking at his brother.

Dawa was a little disappointed. He had to put Bruiser down and play with Xiaomi for a while. When his mother finished making his raincoat, he hurriedly put it on and ran out to dig for insects with his father.

Listening to the excited voices of her father and brother, Xiaomi slowly felt tired. She simply closed her eyes and slept.

As for whether her father could catch fish, Xiaomi was not worried at all.

If those larvae could attract the sparrows, they would definitely attract fish. As long as her father was careful not to slip on the road in the rain.

However, to be able to escape for several years and bring along a family, including a pregnant woman and young children until they could settle down safely, Xiaomi felt that her father was capable. He would remember to be careful.

So Xiaomi slept more peacefully.

Although she could enter the space to absorb spiritual energy and let her body sleep at the same time, how could it compare to simply sleeping?

Sleeping was more comfortable!
