Chapter 301 The Baby’s Burning Up

As the two of them cried the head of the now comer. Tad Mack, mood nearby, sweat soaking his feed, his face tight with worry

The now folk all knew Tad

Sering him hurry over with his son Dudley Mack, and daughter–in–law, Shirley Mack, they couldn’t help four and fat was going on

“Tad, what brings you here?”

Tad, what happened? bait that your eldest son and his wife? You all back to visit family?

I heard you have a granddaughter now. You’ve been bragging about her nonstop, saying how proud you are. But the baby’s still so young and lives in the city, so you haven’t brought her back before. Is that your granddaughter you’re holding now?

Tad was the head of the town committee, which was basically the same as being the town chief–it was technically an official position.

But in the town, nobody really cared about titles. Most people had known each other since childhood, or had watched each other grow up.

So when it came to addressing him, everyone was casual They’d just call him Tad

“So that’s Tad’s granddaughter?”

As soon as the townsfolk heard, they all leaned in to look at the baby in the young woman’s arms.

The baby looked to be around three months old, with rosy skin and soft, curly hair.

She was a beautiful, adorable little infant.

Except right now, the baby’s cheeks were flushed with an unnatural redness.

“Oh, my, what’s wrong with the baby? Is she sick?”

Tad hurriedly said, “That’s right, this is my granddaughter, and this is my son, Dudley–you all should recognize him. Dudley and his wife, Shirley, live in the city. Shirley just gave birth to my granddaughter three months ago. They only came back to visit now that the baby’s three months old. They just arrived yesterday, but today, she started feeling unwell. Her body’s burning hot, and tonight, the milk she drank came right back up in projectile vomiting…”

After graduating from college, Dudley stayed in Brookriver.

Right after finishing college, he married the girlfriend he’d been dating for three years.

Although Tad lived in the town, his family was well–off.

Their house in the town was a large villa.

He had even bought Dudley a fully paid apartment in Brookriver.

The reason was simple–Tad came from a family of three brothers.

All three of them were capable men, and their family had already left them with a solid foundation

Tad’s eldest brother, Darren Mack, worked as a government official in Jyncrest City. The position wasn’t particularly high, but he’d studied hard and climbed his way up step by step.

He was also known for being honest and upright.

The second brother, Travis Mack, ran a business in another city and had settled there permanently.

Tad himself might not have achieved anything extraordinary, but he’d gone to college too. He stayed in the town as a town official and also ran businesses, owning properties in the city.

So the Macks might not compare to those truly elite wealthy families, but their financial situation was stil very good.

The brothers got along well and were close with one another.

Every year, the three brothers returned to the town to pay respects to their ancestors.

From Tad’s parents‘ generation and earlier, all the Mack ancestors were buried in the same place.

Every year during the ancestral rites, they would go to pay their respects.

Nowadays, burial in the ground wasn’t allowed anymore, so Tad’s generation wouldn’t be able to follow th old custom.

But the graves that already existed didn’t have to be moved.

And since they were buried deep in the mountains, no one really interfered with them..

People in the town often said the Macks were blessed with incredible fortune.

And the Macks truly did live a fortunate life.

The whole family was harmonious, the three brothers were free of serious illness, and the children in the family were all obedient, sensible, healthy, and well cared for. Their lives were comfortable and happy.

Clearly, their ancestors racked up a lot of good deeds.

Only then could their descendants live such smooth and blessed lives.

Dudley and Shirley had settled down in the city.

But it wasn’t far, and they usually came back every week.

It was only after Shirley became pregnant that they started visiting less often.

Later, Shirley gave birth to a baby girl. After recovering in the city and waiting until the baby turned three months old, they finally came back to visit Tad and his wife, Priscilla Mack.

Chapter 301 The Baby’s Burnay Up

Though they lived in a patriarchal society. Tad and Priscilla never cared about the child’s gender.

Even though it was a granddaughter, they adored the baby beyond measure.

When Dudley and Shirley brought the baby back yesterday, the older couple was overjoyed. They cooked a table full of delicious food for Shirley.

They spent the whole day holding the baby, reluctant to put her down even for a moment.

They stayed the night yesterday, but when morning came today, they noticed the baby didn’t seem as lively.

Yesterday, when they played with her, the three–month–old baby would laugh happily whenever they

teased her.

But today, no matter how they tried to amuse her, she barely reacted.

The baby took a nap at noon, and even in the afternoon, her energy still seemed off.

Then just now, her body suddenly turned burning hot, and the milk she had drunk earlier all came spraying back out in violent, projectile vomiting.

Tad was terrified, Flustered, he told Dudley and Shirley, “Let’s hurry and take Bunny to Hendrix to have a look. Hendrix inherited Patrick’s medical skills, and he’s quite capable.

“My friend’s grandson had weak immunity and used to get sick and run fevers all the time. They took him to Hendrix, and he mixed up a bottle of medicine for him. Now the boy’s strong and healthy—he’s even gained weight and doesn’t get sick nearly as often anymore.

“These days, when someone in the town falls ill, they all go to him. A couple of herbal prescriptions, and they’re fine. Let’s take the baby to Hendrix first and have him check her out.”

The baby’s nickname was Bunny.

Shirley had chosen it.

Everyone thought it suited her perfectly.

The baby was cute and cuddly, like a little bunny.

But Dudley hesitated.

“Dad, we should take Bunny straight to the county’s top hospital instead. Hendrix is a traditional doctor after all. Bunny’s only three months old–I’m worried she might not be able to take herbal medicine.”
