Chapter 4408: Careful
Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
The Wolf King looked at him before walking up to him and giving a low woof, before lying down in front of him.
Hao’er patted the Wolf King on the head and said, “Thank you these past few days. Here, take this dicinal pill.” He shoved the dicinal pill into the Wolf King’s mouth. It wasn’t so rare dicinal pill, but it was one that his Mother had refined, and it was considered paynt for the Wolf King guarding them these past few days and giving them prey to hunt.
“Ow!” The Wolf King swallowed the dicinal pill, let out an excited yelp, and rubbed his head against the palm of his hand.
Hao’er withdrew his hand, and then led the two little ones beside him along the mountain path.
The Wolf King watched from behind until they were out of sight, and then let out three yelps, leaped into the air, and returned to the depths of the mountains…
The three children walked along the mountain path until noon. The scorching sun above their heads made them sweat from ti to ti, so they ca to rest under a tree by the side of the road.
“Sister, drink so water,” said Hao’er, taking so out of his space and offering it to her to drink first.
After Yue’er had finished, she handed it back to him, saying, ” Big Brother, drink too.”
“Drink so water, little Brother. Drink more,” Hao’er handed him the water. After he had drunk so, he drank so himself, and then took out the dried at and shared it with them.
After a rest, the three of them walked again. However, after walking for a while, Hao’er noticed that Yue’er’s walk had beco a little unsteady, so he stopped and asked, ” Little sister, what’s wrong with your foot?”
Yue’er hesitated for a mont before whispering, “My feet hurt.”
“Where does it hurt? Let take a look,” Hao’er said, taking her hand and leading her to sit down by the roadside. He helped her take off her boots and socks and looked at her feet. His face tightened.
He could see that her tender little feet had developed three or four blisters, each the size of a finger, and her toes were red. She didn’t say a word. He couldn’t help but feel distressed. He petted her head and said, “Yue’er, be a good girl. Big Brother will help you pick the blisters. A little dicine will make them stop hurting.”
Muchen, who was watching from the side, had his mouth pursed tightly, with nervousness and worry in his eyes. When he saw his Big Brother take sothing out to help Yue’er pop the blisters, he walked up close, took Yue’er’s little head into his arms, and said, “It doesn’t hurt. If you don’t look, it doesn’t hurt.”
Yue’er leaned into Muchen’s arms, her small hands clutching his shirt, while her feet were perched on her Big Brother’s lap. She couldn’t see, but she could feel the sharp pain as it hit, and she let out a small hiss.
“It’ll be fine in a little while,” Hao’er said, rinsing her with water and cleaning her up before applying dicine and carefully tying a small strip of cloth around it to prevent it from rubbing against the broken skin.
“It’s done,” Hao’er said, adding, “Don’t put on your boots yet. Big Brother will carry you.”
“Huh?” Yue’er blinked, her delicate little face full of dumbfoundedness, and she said blankly, “But Yue’er is heavy.”
Hao’er couldn’t help but laugh at her little appearance, saying, “It’s not heavy. Big Brother can carry you. Co.” He turned his back and squatted down, with his hands behind his back. He said to Muchen, “Brother, hold your sister’s boots, don’t lose them.”
“Okay,” Muchen replied, and after helping Yue’er climb onto his back, he walked along with the boots in his hand.
Yue’er, who was lying on his back, bead from ear to ear, her small hands tightly wrapped around his. Her soft voice carried a happy smile, “Big Brother, Yue’er feels so comfortable like this.”
