Gu Qingxue placed Dumby on the wooden bed.

Seeing that Dumbyys face was especially red, she reached out to touch Dumbo’s forehead.

It was actually a little hot.

Even though he had a fever, Dumby still did not make any noise. He just sat on the bed obediently and raised his little face.

He stared at Gu Qingxue innocently with a pair of big, watery eyes.

He looked like an obedient little puppy.

Gu Qingxue’s heart softened again. “Sit here obediently. I’ll get you some hot water to drink.”

“Let Dumby go do it! Mother, you should rest!” Dumby said quickly.

Gu Qingxue was stunned.

She suddenly remembered that the original owner of her body had become very strange and temperamental under the repeated attacks. She also treated her children as she pleased. When she was in a good mood, she acted like a normal mother, when she was in a bad mood, she would beat and scold her children. Especially in the past two years, which were 365 days a year, the original owner’s days when she was in a good mood added up to less than 30 days.

Perhaps it was because they were forced by life, her three children were much more sensible than ordinary children.

“There’s no need for that. Just lie down in the quilt obediently. Mother will be done soon.” After saying that, Gu Qingxue stuffed Dumby into the quilt and helped him to tuck in the corners of the quilt.

Dumby lay on the bed, not daring to move. His little head was full of questions.

What was wrong with mother?

She suddenly became so strange and gentle.

However, he really liked his mother’s change.

Originally, Gu Qingxue should have gone to look for her other two children, but since that Dumby had a fever, she had to settle Dumby down first.

She lived in a dilapidated courtyard at the west end of the village. It was called a courtyard, but it was just a piece of land enclosed by a fence. There were two dilapidated wooden houses inside.

One dilapidated wooden house was where Gu Qingxue and the three children slept. The other one was used as a kitchen.

Of course, Gu Qingxue and the children did not live here in the beginning.

Although the husband of the original owner did not have much money, he had a nice small courtyard in this village. That small courtyard was now occupied by Madam Yu.

Gu Qingxue came to the kitchen and skillfully lit a fire to boil the water.

In her previous life, after she became a big shot in the medical field, she had a special life assistant, so she did not need to do the trivial things in her life.

Fortunately, she was born in a mercenary family, and her grandfather was a world-famous mercenary. Since she was young, her grandfather had trained her with all kinds of devilish training, hoping that she could become an excellent mercenary in the future. However, she did not follow the path her grandfather had arranged for her, but chose to study medicine instead. However, before that, she had mastered many survival skills. Even though she was now penniless and had to rely on herself, she could still remain calm.

Sitting beside the stove, Gu Qingxue thought of the research institute in her previous life that she could not bear to part with after she had reincarnated.

That research institute was designed and created by her. It had world-class medical equipment and experimental equipment, and the warehouse was full of medicinal herbs she had collected from all over the world.

“Dumby’s symptom should be a cold. It would be better if there were cold medicine,” Gu Qingxue murmured as she looked at the flames jumping in front of her.

As soon as she finished her words, she was hit on the head by something.

Thud!

The thing fell to Gu Qingxue’s feet.

Gu Qingxue frowned and covered the spot where she was hurt. She looked closely.

‘What the hell!’

‘It was actually cold medicine?!’
