"Hmm, but I'm hungry," Chuner said after a moment, looking pitiable.
Madam Xie and Xuexue did not go to the main hall to eat, and since Chuner was timid, she dared not go alone.
"Chuner, after your sister helps our mother apply the medicated oil, she'll call you back to eat. Play by the door for a while, and don't go far, understand?"
"Mmm, okay, then sister, please be quick." After saying this, Chuner ran off to play by the front door.
"Xuexue, mother is fine, you should take Chuner to eat first. If you wait, they'll have eaten everything, and you'll go hungry again tonight," Madam Xie said, enduring the pain in her body.
She could bear her own pain, but seeing her two daughters toss and turn in bed, unable to sleep because of hunger, pained Madam Xie's heart.
"It's alright, mother, let's go back to our room and apply the medicated oil, that's more important," Xuexue insisted, disregarding Madam Xie's objections and helping her back to the room to apply the medicated oil.
