Su Xiaoxiao took the child. “Palm lamp! The lighter is on the table!”
The man in white immediately lit the oil lamp and turned the wick to the brightest.
Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t care less that she was only wearing a sleeping gown and hurriedly carried the twitching Wei Xiyue over.
“Daughter!”
Su Cheng rushed in with a butcher knife.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Dad, we’re on the same side. He brought a child here for a consultation!”
Su Cheng’s butcher knife had already landed on the head of the man in white and the bamboo hat, and he almost couldn’t take it back. Su Xiaoxiao continued, “Dad, carry Dahu and the others over.”
“Okay!”
Su Cheng scooped up the two little fellows, and the man in white went to help.
The two of them carried the three children to Su Cheng’s room.
Su Xiaoxiao gently placed Wei Xiyue on the bed and let her lie flat. She also unbuttoned Wei Xiyue’s clothes and belt so that she could keep breathing smoothly.
She Imelt beside Wei Xiyue and gently supported her back.
She couldn’t use too little strength. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to hold her up, and she couldn’t use too much strength either. She would hurt her.
The man in white and the bamboo hat came to the door and wanted to enter, but he only glanced in and retracted his foot as if he had been electrocuted.
He turned.
See no evil.
Su Cheng covered the three little fellows with the blanket and came to the backyard. He said to the man in white and the bamboo hat guarding the door, “Just wait outside. Don’t worry. My daughter’s medical skills are very good. The child will be fine.”
The man in white responded in a low voice.
Su Cheng looked at him. “Speaking of which, how old are you? You already have a child?”
The man in white and the bamboo hat’s appearance was hidden in the dark, and only his smooth and exquisite chin could be seen.
He explained, “It’s not my child, but Matriarch Wei’s great-granddaughter.”
Su Cheng was surprised. “Ah, the Wei family’s child. Are you from Son-in-law’s family? His brother? No, his brothers are all gone.
“Guard,” said the man in white.
“You don’t look like a guard either…”
He was like the noble young master of that family, Su Cheng thought.
The man in white said nothing.
“You can come in now,” Su Xiaoxiao said.
The two of them entered the house.
“Is the child alright?” Su Cheng asked.
Su Xiaoxiao covered Wei Xiyue with the blanket. “She’s out of danger for the time being. Dad, go rest.”
“Alright, I’ll go. Call me if you need anything!” Su Cheng took the butcher knife and returned to the house.
The man in white came to the bed and looked at Wei Xiyue, who had already quietened down.
“She’s asleep,” Su Xiaoxiao said. “When did she start convulsing?”
The white-robed man in the bamboo hat said, “Just now. When she started convulsing, the Matriarch asked me to bring her over.” Su Xiaoxiao continued, “What was she doing before the convulsion?”
The man in white said, “She was crying and shouting.”
Su Xiaoxiao continued, “Has this happened before?”
The man in white recalled, “It’s the first time she convulsed. She shouted… often.”
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the sleeping Wei Xiyue. “Did she shout often? For no reason, or after being agitated?”
The man in white said, “Mostly after being agitated.”
Su Xiaoxiao’s first impression of Wei Xiyue was that she was shy and introverted, but from her appearance, it was difficult to imagine her shouting at people when she was angry.
“Can you describe it in more detail?” she asked.
The white-robed man paused for a moment and said, “Xiyue is… different from ordinary children. She doesn’t like to smile or move. She often cries out that her stomach hurts, and medicine doesn’t work on her. When she’s angry, she will shout. It’s the kind that can’t be comforted. She will only stop when she’s tired.”
“Is it always like this?”
“She wasn’t like this when she was born. After she was about three years old…”
Wei Xivue was seven years old this vear. She was three years old at the time of the Wei family’s misfortune.
