Chapter 54
When he arrived at the village where he was staying, Du Qiyue was already cold and a little confused, and he couldn't hear others telling him to get off the carriage, and he was still shivering. Qiu'er saw that Du Qiyue had not come down, so she went up to help him, and when she touched Du Qiyue's hand, she found that he had a high fever, and the whole person was piping hot.
Mama Shu Ci sat on the edge of the bed, fed Du Qiyue medicine, and then said while carefully wiping Du Qiyue's face: "It's really embarrassing for Du Langjun, he is a young man who has lived a stable life since he was a child, where have he seen that kind of battle, although Qin Yun and I are more timid, we have been on the battlefield for a few years, and we have not seen blood." The first time he saw this at a young age, and he had no intention of killing someone, he must have been frightened. ”
"If I had known, I wouldn't have let him go with us." Zhao Yiyun sighed, turned his head to look at the hour that had been standing aside with his head down, and asked, "Xing San, do you see anything from those corpses?" ”
"Most of them are ordinary people, but a few of them are Lianjiazi, and they are wearing clothes made of Hangzhou cotton." Xing San lowered his head and said, this accident was also the negligence of those who followed them, but who would have thought that those people would make a move so quickly, and they would be so ruthless when they made a move.
Zhao Yiyun's eyes darkened when he heard this, and his hand holding the teacup tightened.
Although there is a cotton word in the name, Hangzhou cotton cloth is really silk cloth, and it is only because this silk cloth is similar to cotton cloth in terms of appearance and touch, so it will get this name. Because of this characteristic, Hangzhou cotton cloth is almost impossible to circulate in the market, ordinary people have money to buy silk cloth, and they definitely don't want to buy Hangzhou cotton cloth, which is made of clothes and wears like cotton, and rich people will not wear this kind of silk clothes that will make people mistakenly think that it is cotton.
However, there was an unwritten rule in the rules of the Dafeng Dynasty that in order to distinguish social status, the servants of the large family could only wear clothes made of cotton and other ordinary fabrics. However, many of the minions in the big family are family children or grandmothers and the like, and the status of these minions is higher than that of the small masters in the family, so they naturally don't want to wear inferior ordinary cotton clothes, so they noticed the fabric of Hangzhou cotton, so in the end, Hangzhou cotton cloth has become the clothes worn by those decent minions in the big family or the cloth that the masters give to the minions, which can rarely be bought on the market.
It would not be a coincidence that these robbers wore clothes made of hangan cotton, and it would not have been a coincidence that they bought them in the market, so the only reason they wore them was because they came from some large family. As for whose family it is, although Zhao Yiyun has no evidence to point it out, it can be calculated that there are only so many families who have enmity with the original Dingguo general.
"Looks like they really don't want me to go back!" Zhao Yiyun sighed faintly, and only after half a sound did he ask again: "Xing San, everyone's injuries are okay, what did the doctor say?" ”
"It's just flesh wounds, it'll be fine in ten days, young master doesn't have to worry." Xing San said immediately.
"You go and tell Zhou Cheng that we will rest here for a few days before leaving, and ask him to send someone to buy more chickens, ducks and fish in the village tomorrow, so that everyone can replenish their bodies and repair them before leaving." Zhao Yiyun said,
"Yes, young master!" Xing San clasped his hands and said, he is a subordinate of the old marquis Zhao Zijin, when Zhao Zijin died, he handed him over to Zhao Yiyun along with other old subordinates, when Xing San saw Zhao Yiyun's majesty on the battlefield, he thought that Zhao Zijin had a successor, who would have thought that now Zhao Yiyun has become a brother, thinking of this Xing San couldn't help but feel pity, but he had to accept the fact helplessly.
After Xing San left, Zhao Yiyun stayed in Du Qiyue's room for a while and then went back to his room, leaving only Mama Shu Ci and Qiu'er behind, so that they could take care of Du Qiyue.
Du Qiyue had a very difficult night, only feeling that he was hot as if he was being burned by fire, and cold for a while as if he was lying on an ice bed, which was like being in the two heavens of ice and fire. And he was constantly haunted by nightmares, in which he saw the fight again and again during the day, his eyes were full of blood and mutilated corpses, and he wanted to escape, he wanted to open his eyes, but he couldn't wake up no matter what.
Mama Shu Ci and Qiu'er took turns guarding Du Qiyue all night, covering him with a quilt and wiping the sweat on his body, tossing and turning like this, until Du Qiyue's fever subsided at dawn, and the two of them were relieved.
When Du Qiyue woke up, it was already dawn, and it should be noon. He was covered in sweat, his clothes were all sticking to his body, he was very uncomfortable, his mouth was very thirsty, and his throat and eyes were dry and smoking. But there was no one in the house to help him change his clothes and pour water, and when he turned his head sideways and saw a basin and a teacup by the bed, he thought that he would get up and be self-reliant. But as soon as Du Qiyue stood up, he felt that everything in the room was spinning, and he only felt dizzy when he looked at it, and he couldn't get up after trying a few times, so he finally had to lie back on the bed.
It happened that Qiu'er entered the house with the food, and when she saw that Du Qiyue was awake, she hurriedly walked over and said with a smile: "Lang Jun, you are awake, you can rest assured that this little one is at ease." ”
"How long have I been asleep?" Du Qiyue asked, then pointed to the quilt on the table and said, "You pour me a glass of water first." ”
Qiu'er immediately poured a glass of water, helped Du Qiyue to feed him, and then said, "Lang Jun, you had a terrible fever last night, but you scared the little one." ”
Du Qiyue drank the water and felt some persuasion in his throat, so he frowned and asked, "I had a fever last night?" He didn't know he had a fever, and he had long forgotten about last night's discomfort.
Qiu'er nodded and said, "It's burning so badly, when the little one lifted you off the carriage, you were as hot as a fireball, and Mama Shu Ci and I wiped your sweat all night last night!" ”
"Yes, that's really annoying you and Mama Shu Ci." Du Qiyue lay back on the bed, thought for a while and asked, "Are you and Da Mao injured, and how are the others?" ”
"I'm fine, I'm small, flexible and fast. Da Mao was slashed in the back, but the wound was not deep, and it will be fine in a few days. The others also have some wounds on their bodies to a greater or lesser extent, but there are no serious injuries, they have all practiced, Du Langjun does not have to worry. Qiu'er said.
"It's okay, but luckily everyone is fine." Du Qiyue said, but his heart was still heavy when he thought of the gang of robbers who were hacked to death.
"yes, everybody's fine." Qiu'er smiled, picked up a small bowl and asked, "Lang Jun, do you want to eat, some meat soup is made in the kitchen, it's good to eat." ”
"I want to eat, but can you help me wipe my sweat before I change my clothes, I'm very uncomfortable." Du Qiyue said with some embarrassment.
"Lang Jun, yesterday your clothes all fell into the puddle, last night was so busy, everyone didn't think to wash it, I just washed it this morning, and now it's all outside in the sun. If Lang Jun doesn't dislike it, just wear a small underwear, although they are all worn, they are quite clean. Qiu'er said.
As long as it was clean clothes, Du Qiyue didn't mind, so he said, "Take it, let me change it first." ”
Qiu'er responded, immediately found her latest set of underwear from the closet, and helped Du Qiyue change it after a simple scrub of her body. After changing her clothes, Du Qiyue's body was dry, and she began to feel hungry, so she asked Qiu'er to feed herself half a bowl of meat soup, and then she lay back on the bed comfortably.
The door was knocked a few times, Qin Yun walked in with a medicine bowl, and saw that Du Qiyue had woken up, and his spirit was not bad, so he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said with a somewhat embarrassed face: "Du Langjun, you woke up, this is the medicine I cooked myself, please drink it quickly." ”
Qin Yun's expression was a little far-fetched, Du Qiyue knew that he cared about the contradiction between the two before, so he smiled and said: "Thank you Qin Yun Shilang, I will drink the medicine, and I will go back to help me thank Mama Shu Ci, thank you for taking care of me all night yesterday." ”
"Alas, then Du Langjun drink the medicine, I won't bother." Qin Yun smiled, and felt that the conversation with Du Qiyue was a little twisted, so she withdrew after speaking.
At this time, Zhao Yiyun had already eaten lunch, and when he saw Qin Yun coming in, he asked, "How is Du Langjun?" ”
"I've woken up, I've eaten something, and I look good." Qin Yun said.
"It's good to wake up, do you have some thanks?" Mama Shu Ci patted her chest, a woman of her age will always care about young and pleasing children, Du Qiyue is very good to Zhao Yiyun on weekdays, and always makes good food to please Zhao Yiyun, Mama Shu Ci also has a little sincere care for him, knowing that people have woken up, her heart is happy.
Qin Yun lowered his head embarrassedly, he was very interested in Du Qiyue helping him yesterday, and he also wanted to thank Du Qiyue, but when he saw Du Qiyue, he couldn't open his mouth.
Mama Shu Ci didn't understand what he looked like, reached out and poked Qin Yun's head, and said, "You, you have sharp teeth and sharp mouth on weekdays, if you really want to speak, you won't open your mouth." It's nothing to apologize, it's just that you can't have an argument with Du Langjun in the future, if your temper comes up, just think about Du Langjun helping you yesterday, you know? ”
Qin Yun smiled flatteringly at Mama Shu Ci and said, "I know, Mama, I just don't know how to speak." ”
"You can't just say it, you have to do it." Zhao Yiyun glanced at Qin Yun and said.
Qin Yun shrunk her neck when Zhao Yiyun looked at her, and hurriedly nodded: "Young master, don't worry, Qin Yun is not an ungrateful person, Du Langjun saved my life, I will naturally not be ignorant anymore." ”
In the next few days, the qin rhyme table was really good, Du Qiyue's three meals of medicine in the morning, noon and evening were all cooked by him, and every time he personally brought them to the house, although he was still a little uncomfortable talking to Du Qiyue, but it could be seen that he was trying to make friends with Du Qiyue.
Du Qiyue also communicated with Qin Yun naturally, he actually didn't hate Qin Yun very much, although Qin Yun's temper was not very likable, but he didn't have any bad intentions, and he was also very heartfelt to Zhao Yiyun, the master, which should be very good from the perspective of the subordinates.
After resting for five days, Du Qiyue's illness was completely cured, and the injuries of the others were much better, and the team started to set off again. This time, everyone is much more cautious, and they will be frightened if there is a little wind and grass on the road, for fear of killing another group of robbers.
Du Qiyue's carriage was completely destroyed, and he could no longer sit on it, and the village could not buy a new carriage, so Du Qiyue had to sit in Zhao Yiyun's carriage this time. Zhao Yiyun's carriage was much more comfortable than Du Qiyue's, but Du Qiyue was very restrained when he sat inside, for fear that Zhao Yiyun would think he was rude, so he didn't even dare to look at his eyes.
Zhao Yiyun smiled secretly when he saw Du Qiyue's nervous appearance, when he was in Wu Mansion before, Du Qiyue had always been very steady, and he spoke and acted one by one, looking like an adult in an accident, but he looked like a child at this moment.
It was indeed a child, only sixteen years old, but he met with him like that, and I don't know if they would be separated in a few days, and if they had the opportunity to see each other again in the future, this man would avoid him.
