Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 1385

Chen Jianmin nodded and helped him walk to the tree. After Doctor Xie sat down, Chen Jianmin rummaged through his cotton bag and took out a waterskin.

This waterskin was given to him by his Master's wife, who had also given him a jar of herbal powder.

Under Lu Jueyu's instruction, he mixed a pinch of the powder with drinking water and carried it in the waterskin. She had told him to drink it whenever he felt unwell.

He opened the lid and said, "Grandpa, drink more water."

Doctor Xie didn't refuse, as he felt he might be having a heat stroke. He drank the water with his eyes closed and immediately felt refreshed. The dizziness had lessened, and after a few more sips, he said, "That's enough."

Chen Jianmin placed the waterskin beside him and said, "Grandpa, if you still feel unwell after resting, you have to tell me. I will take you to the clinic. I put the water here, so you should drink more."

Doctor Xie nodded and said, "I know. Go back to your work."

Although he was worried, Chen Jianmin still had work to finish, including Doctor Xie's share. So, he didn't linger and returned to the field.

Seeing him come back, Chen Gang asked, "Jianmin, what's wrong with Doctor Xie?"

"I think Grandpa Xie might have a heat stroke, so I told him to rest," Chen Jianmin replied.

Hearing this, Chen Gang nodded and said, "Keep an eye on him. If you see him looking unwell, let Father know."

"Okay."

Not far from them, Chen Xiang looked at his second brother and said, "Wife, do you know when my second brother got so close to Doctor Xie?"

Hearing her husband's words, Yi Jiao replied without stopping her work, "I don't know."

After a moment, Yi Jiao recalled some rumors she had heard from the neighbors and straightened her back. She looked at her nephew and said, "Husband, I heard Jianmin is getting close to Doctor Xie's granddaughter."

"You mean Li Sang's adopted daughter?" Chen Xiang asked.

Yi Jiao nodded and continued, "I don't know if it's true or not, but some people said Jianmin likes that girl, and he often goes to Doctor Xie's house to help with house chores."

Hearing this, Chen Xiang laughed and said, "Wife, aren't you overthinking it?"

"Jianmin is a diligent and polite boy. He always returns favors and shows gratitude. Isn't Jianguo's health always bad? Maybe Jianmin went to help out to repay Doctor Xie's kindness."

Hearing her husband's words, Yi Jiao thought for a moment and realized it made sense. She clearly understood the situation in the second household. They were barely able to afford two meals a day.

With the addition of Chen Jianguo in the family, they wouldn't have money to spare for medical expenses.

"Husband, I know," Yi Jiao agreed. _{freewebnσvel.cѳm}
