Traveling through the 1970s: The young wife loves to make trouble

Chapter 30 Sister-in-law is so awesome

Two fingers slid down Wei Jingyuan's throat to help him swallow the pill. Tao Qiuyi's actions could not be said to be rough, but they were certainly not gentle either.

"Okay, your eldest brother will have the fever down soon after taking the pills." Tao Qiuyi glanced at the medicinal wine on the stone. She smelled it when she came in. It was a medicinal wine that could invigorate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, but it couldn't be used to rub Wei Jingyuan.

He took out a small bag wrapped in leaves and handed it to Xiao Huai. Tao Qiuyi stood up and gave Xiao Huai his seat. "Apply this ointment to your brother. Don't apply the medicinal wine yet."

Xiao Huai took it in a daze, opened it gently and saw that the leaves contained a ball of white paste, which gave off a cool medicinal smell.

He looked up at Tao Qiuyi and asked, "This ointment is..."

"Don't look at the packaging. It's fine as long as the ointment is useful. Apply it to your brother quickly, and then apply it to your own wounds. Don't be reluctant to use it. We have plenty of it." It was indeed shabby to use ointment in leaves, and Tao Qiuyi himself felt embarrassed.

But she had no choice. She couldn't find a container to put the ointment in, so she could only pick a leaf and use it.

Before she traveled through time, pills and ointments were stored in fine glass bottles or ceramic bottles. They were high-end, classy, and beautiful, and they sold at a considerable price.

But now I can only... Oh! I don't want to think about it anymore. It makes me sad and tearful when I think about it.

Tao Qiuyi stretched out her finger, dipped some ointment, pulled the pear over, and gently applied it to the wound on her face.

Who cares about the packaging of the ointment? Xiao Huai was speechless. He wanted to ask where the ointment came from.

There was a faint medicinal fragrance lingering in her nose, her face felt cool and comfortable, and Li Zi's eyes widened.

Looking at Tao Qiuyi, Li Zi asked with surprise, "Sister-in-law, where did you buy this ointment? It smells so good. It feels so cool when I put it on the wound. It hurts right away."

How could it be possible that the pain would go away immediately after applying the ointment? Xiao Huai looked down at the ointment in his hand, doubting whether it was really as good as Xiao Li said.

"I did it myself." Tao Qiuyi smiled slightly, took back his hand and reminded her, "Don't wash your face tonight. The injury will be much better when you wake up tomorrow morning."

"Yes, yes, yes. I'll listen to my sister-in-law and definitely not wash my face tonight." Li Zi agreed readily. She was reluctant to wash off the fragrant ointment after applying it on her face.

"The ointment was made by my sister-in-law! You are so amazing, you can make such a fragrant ointment. It's amazing, so amazing." Li Zi looked at Tao Qiuyi with admiration in her eyes.

Li Zi called Tao Qiuyi "sister-in-law" all the time, which made her feel comfortable and happy. "Follow sister-in-law from now on, and sister-in-law will take you to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks."

This is my first time being someone’s sister-in-law, and it feels pretty good.

"Yes, yes, yes. From now on we will follow sister-in-law and listen to what she says." Li Zi nodded happily.

This ointment... did she make it herself? Xiao Huai looked at the ointment in her hand, then at Tao Qiuyi.

Could she make such an ointment? Xiao Huai had a big question mark in his mind.

Seeing the little girl's expression, Tao Qiuyi knew she was speaking from the heart and reached out to pinch the other side of her face. "Alright, you and Xiao Huai stay home and take care of your brother. I'm going to take a walk in the mountains and be back before dinner. I don't need to remind you two to lock the door and not open it for anyone to come."

"No need." Li Zi promised solemnly.

Tao Qiuyi looked at Xiao Huai again, and after getting Xiao Huai's nod of assurance, she smiled and went out, carrying the backpack and going up the mountain.

Li Zi went over to close the door and locked it.

Xiao Huai looked at her speechless. Thinking that he had just nodded, he curled his lips, kicked off his shoes, climbed onto the bed and helped his elder brother apply medicine.

Looking at the bruises on his elder brother's back again, the young man felt indescribable guilt and discomfort.

The eldest brother was beaten so badly because he was protecting him and Xiaoli.

"Hiss." Wei Jingyuan slowly opened his eyes and saw a vague figure standing beside the bed. He blurted out, "Tao..."

"Brother, you're awake! Don't move! Xiao Huai is applying medicine on you. Don't move." Li Zi spoke before him. Wei Jingyuan then saw clearly that the person standing by the bed was his sister, Xiao Li.

Huh, he actually mistook Xiaoli for Tao Qiuyi? If Xiaoli hadn't interrupted him first, he would have definitely called out Tao Qiuyi's name. Wei Jingyuan was completely puzzled.

The burning pain on his back disappeared, replaced by a cool and comfortable feeling, and Wei Jingyuan's drowsy mind also became clearer.

I turned around and saw Xiao Huai.

The two brothers looked at each other, and neither of them spoke.

"Brother, I'm telling you not to move. Xiao Huai is helping you apply the medicine. How can Xiao Huai help you apply the medicine if you keep moving around like this?" Li Zi looked at her brother seriously.

This was the first time she discovered that her eldest brother was so disobedient.

Li Zi sat on the edge of the bed and put her hands on his shoulders. "Xiao Huai, hurry up and apply the medicine to big brother."

Wei Jingyuan and Xiao Huai looked at her at the same time.

Just... very speechless.

"The medicine has been applied." Xiao Huai said expressionlessly, got out of bed, put on his shoes and stood by the bed.

Embarrassed, Li Zi withdrew her hand, stood up and stood next to Xiao Huai.

A faint medicinal aroma wafted over, and Wei Jingyuan paused, his gaze fixed squarely on the leaf in Xiao Huai's hand. "Where did you get the ointment?"

"My sister-in-law made it herself." It was Li Zi who answered, with a little pride in her tone.

Sister-in-law? Wei Jingyuan frowned and blurted out without thinking, "Where did you get your sister-in-law?"

After he finished speaking, he remembered what happened at noon. His fourth uncle wrote a marriage certificate for himself and Tao Qiuyi. The sister-in-law that Li Zi mentioned was Tao Qiuyi. Wei Jingyuan raised his hand and rubbed his dizzy head.

"Brother, are you confused by the fever? You even forgot about your sister-in-law." Li Zi looked at him in shock, her tone full of accusation. "You had a fever, and your sister-in-law went to find you medicine to reduce the fever, and even made ointment for your wounds. How could you forget about your sister-in-law?"

How could the eldest brother forget the eldest sister-in-law?

Xiao Huai looked at Li Zi in surprise. It was not an illusion, but Li Zi had really changed and spoke with much more confidence.

Is it true that those who are close to vermilion will be red, and those who are close to ink will be black? Xiao Huai found it unbelievable.

"I haven't forgotten, I just didn't think about the fact that she is now your sister-in-law." She was his wife. Wei Jingyuan was speechless again when he thought about it.

My dizzy head became even dizzier and my eyelids were too heavy to open.

Hearing him say this, Li Zi immediately felt relieved. She was really afraid that after having her eldest sister-in-law, she would suddenly lose her.

"Brother..." Li Zi wanted to say something, but was stopped by Xiao Huai. She tilted her head and looked at Xiao Huai in confusion.

Xiao Huai put his index finger to his lips and said in a low voice, "Let big brother sleep for a while. Don't keep talking and disturbing big brother's sleep."

Lizi nodded and lowered her voice to ask, "Xiao Huai, what should we do now?"

"Just do what you should do." Xiao Huai replied.

At this time, the sounds of footsteps and talking were heard outside. The loudest voice was Li Hongying, who was cursing and directing her sons and daughters-in-law to work. Xiao Huai and Li Zi looked at each other.

They looked at the door at the same time and saw that it was locked. The brother and sister both breathed a sigh of relief.
