Chapter 309: Blur (7K Two Shifts in One for a Monthly Pass)
Slowly retreated from the small courtyard where Shen Yongjie and Xiao Lei lived, and Yingsleeve's always cheerful and bright face was dyed with a faint melancholy.
She felt that something was wrong, and she couldn't tell what the reason was, but she just felt that something was wrong.
What kind of heart Yuan Yinglan and the queen mother have for their family can be seen from the previous tossing of her marriage contract and the aphrodisiac to Shen Yule.
They don't look down on their family.
And this kind of person, although she is sick and lives in first, but living next door to their house makes her involuntarily think about it.
When passing by the gate of the small courtyard next door where Yuan Yinglan lived, Ying Sleeve couldn't help but stop, stretched out his hand and turned an inconspicuous jade bracelet on his left wrist.
The jade bracelet is actually not a jade bracelet, it is a lightsaber that can bend and stretch given to her by the master, and it is specially worn on the wrist for self-defense, "This lightsaber has the ability to drive away evil and avoid evil." Even if you encounter this kind of thing again in the future, you can handle it yourself......" Master's words were still echoing in her ears, but she hadn't seen Master for a long time.
When Ying Sleeve thought of his master, he felt endless courage in his heart.
She turned around and walked towards the courtyard where Yuan Yinglan lived.
"Miss Yuan, this is the courtyard where Lord Lan County lives, you can't go in." The people of the Qi Palace's Mansion arrogantly blocked Yingshou's way.
Ying Sleeve froze, glanced at him, and said with a smile: "Although I am no longer the county lord, but I am related to the Lan county lord, seeing that she is sick and living here, it is always okay to visit, right?" β
ββ¦β¦ Miss, you haven't had chickenpox......" Cai Sang reminded her softly beside her, hoping that she would not be reckless for a while. Be sure to get in.
Yingsleeve secretly thought that she had enough contact with her mother and younger brother, but she didn't get infected, so there was no reason to go to Yuan Yinglan's yard to get it......
So she didn't care. said lightly: "Although I have not suffered from this disease, the etiquette cannot be abolished." You can't be afraid of getting infected, and you don't even care about your relatives, right? She said this last sentence as she stared at the mother-in-law next to the gatekeeper.
She remembered that this mother-in-law used to be the personal mother-in-law of Princess Qi Lu Yue'er, but now she actually followed Yuan Yinglan to the temporary infirmary.
Lu Yue'er died. It stands to reason that the subordinates around her will either be resold or dismissed.
There is only one kind of person who will serve the little master, that is, the kind of nurse who has been close to the elders since childhood.
And Lu Yue'er was born poor. There is no nurse around, so this mother-in-law can have such a great ability, and she followed Yuan Yinglan after her death, which shows that she is an unusual person.
The woman was really stared at by Yingsleeve, and her heart was a little numb. Hurriedly hung his head. Don't dare to look at Yingsleeve's eyes again.
At this moment, the door of the courtyard creaked, and two richly dressed men and women came out of it, followed by a string of subordinates.
"It turned out to be the lobby brother and the lobby sister-in-law." Seeing that it was Yuan Yingjia and Tang Haijia who came out, Ying Sleeve smiled and bowed slightly, deliberately calling only the names of relatives.
Although she is not the county lord now, she is always the daughter of the prince, and she is a cousin with Yuan Yingjia and Yuan Yinglan.
The gatekeeper of Yuan Yinglan's courtyard also figured out the joints, and the expression on his face was very embarrassed.
When Yuan Yingjia came out. Originally, his brows were furrowed, but when he looked up, he saw Yingsleeve standing in front of the door. immediately raised a smile and said gently: "Is it Sister Yingsleeve who is here?" Then he asked her, "You are also here to visit Ying Lan?" β
Yingsleeve nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, but unfortunately, your door won't let me in." β
The man muttered: "People who pass by dare to talk ......."
Obviously saying that Yingsleeve didn't mean to visit Yuan Yinglan at all.
Yuan Yingjia didn't make a sound, but Tang Haijia heard it and asked out loud: "...... Crossing? Sister Yingsleeve, how did you come here to pass by? β
Yingsleeve glanced at the courtyard where Shen Yongjie and Xiao Lei lived next to her, and said, "My mother and brother also sent it over just now." After we came, we learned that Sister Lan was also sick. It's a shame......"
"Huh? My aunt and cousin are also sick? Yuan Yingjia was very surprised and looked at Tang Haijia, "Let's go see the eldest aunt and the little cousin." β
Tang Haijia nodded, and said: "But since Sister Yingsleeve came first, why don't you let her go to see Ying Lan first, and then let's go to see the eldest aunt and the little cousin together?" β
Yuan Yingjia nodded, "That's very good." β
Yingsleeve didn't interject, and when she saw that they had agreed, she walked and said, "Then I'll take a look at Sister Lan first." With that, he followed Yuan Yingjia and Tang Haijia into the courtyard where Yuan Yinglan was recuperating.
The furnishings in this courtyard are exactly the same as those in the courtyard next to it.
The person who waited in the courtyard introduced her: "These are the courtyards for the nobles, and they are all exactly the same." β
Ying Sleeve nodded, followed them up the steps, and came to the door of the house where Yuan Yinglan lived.
"Sister Ying Lan, Sister Yingsleeve has come to see you." Tang Haijia said to the back room.
Ying Sleeve glanced at her and said, "I want to go in and say a few words to Sister Ying Lan." β
ββ¦β¦ Sister Yingsleeve, have you ever had chickenpox? Tang Haijia asked hurriedly, as if he was very concerned about her.
"Nope. However, my sister is sick, how can I just think about myself? Ying Sleeve glanced at Yuan Yingjia with a smile.
Yuan Yingjia obviously had a good impression of her words, nodded at her with a smile, and said, "Sister Yingsleeve is good-hearted in the end, and she doesn't just think about herself." β
Tang Haijia blushed suddenly, took a step back quietly, and didn't dare to speak anymore.
Yingsleeve said to the two maids waiting next to the door, "Open the curtain, and I'll go in and take a look." β
"Is it Yingsleeve? Don't come in, I'm not chickenpox, it's pox, I'm afraid it won't be good for you. Yuan Yinglan's very hoarse voice came from the back room, like a person who had a high fever for several days, and even his throat was burned out.
Ying Sleeve was taken aback and stopped at the door: "You have a pox?!" β
Yuan Yingjia put his hands behind his back, nodded with a straight face, and said, "...... Yes, the doctor was diagnosed yesterday and sent it in the evening. He let out a long breath.
Yuan Yinglan seemed to hear Yuan Yingjia's sigh in the room, and hurriedly said, "Brother." Don't worry, I'll get through it. I haven't seen my brother and sister-in-law give birth to my little nephew, I'm fine......"
Yuan Yingjia turned sharply and looked up. Look at the sky outside.
Although he moved quickly, Yingsleeve clearly saw tears flashing in the corners of his eyes.
The brother and sister have a good relationship......
Yingsleeve sighed in her heart, she is also a person with a younger brother, and she feels very uncomfortable when she thinks that her brother is infected next door.
Just as she was about to turn away, the jade bracelet on her left wrist was close to her skin, and suddenly she was slightly warm.
She was stunned. Subconsciously reached out and stroked it, but the hot feeling just now had disappeared without a trace, as if it was her illusion just now.
Ying Sleeve knows that there is a difference. Gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay, let me come in and see my sister." My brother and mother are also sick, and I am worried. β
Yuan Yinglan inside was silent for a while. Only then did he say slowly: "If it's a sister with sleeves, you must see it." Let the maid take a look in and make a decision. β
Ying Sleeve looked at the open door curtain, there was a black hole inside, and she couldn't see the situation in the house at all, like a monster, with her mouth wide open, just waiting for her to throw herself into the net.
But even if he knew that there was a trap inside, he thought of Shen Yongjie and Xiao Lei lying in the courtyard next door. She had to go.
"Miss, let the slave maid go and have a look first." Γeinla tugged at the hem of her robe. "The slave has had pox before."
"Oh?" Ying Sleeve was very surprised, looked at Cai Yin's face carefully, and in the corner of her left eye, she did see a few inconspicuous pockmarks, which she hadn't noticed before.
"Miss, chickenpox, pox, slaves and maids have had it when they were young. The slave has a big life, so let's go and see it on behalf of the eldest lady. Cai Yin winked at her.
Yingsleeve was silent.
Cai Yin's family is in their house, so they sent her to her side to be a big maid and set the shortage of Cai Qin.
"Go ahead." Ying Sleeve said softly.
Cai Yin looked up and walked in.
It was dark inside, and it took her a while to adjust to the light inside, and she saw the large bed with the curtain hanging down behind the screen.
Cai Yin walked over, stretched out her hand to open the curtain, and saw Yuan Yinglan half-lying on the bed.
Cai Yin was taken aback.
I saw that Yuan Yinglan's originally white and somewhat plump face had lost weight sharply, with blue and black under his eyes, high cheekbones, and thick sleeves on both hands, which were tied up and hung on the railings on both sides of the bed.
The exposed skin, including the face, is a large red rash and scar.
Cai Yin knew that when she had acne, her face was very itchy, and people had to scratch it.
The pockmarks at the corners of her side eyes were the pox flowers that her hands were tied up by her mother, but they were still itchy and unbearable, and she rubbed her face on the bed......
"You tell your master, I don't want to be seen by others...... Yuan Yinglan closed his eyes and gasped.
Cai Yin hurriedly retreated and whispered to Yingsleeve: "It's indeed a pox rash." β
Yingsleeve nodded, and still stepped in.
She came to Yuan Yinglan's bedside, looked at her fixedly, raised her eyebrows, and said very unexpectedly: "Sister Lan, why do you have acne?" β
ββ¦β¦ It's a good thing you didn't agree to come with me to this makeshift infirmary that day, otherwise the two of us would have been lying here together. Yuan Yinglan smiled bitterly, "I thought I was well prepared, but I didn't expect to be ......."
Yingsleeve's brows frowned, and he said, "But, if someone here has a pox, what about my mother and brother?" β
"What's wrong with Uncle Niang and Xiao Lei?" Yuan Yinglan tilted her head and asked her.
"They moved in, too. It's chickenpox. Ying Sleeve said calmly, "It's right next door to you." β
Yuan Yinglan also frowned and said, "This is not good. I've told my brother not to come here again. You...... Why don't you talk to the emperor's grandfather, ask for a favor, and transfer the eldest aunt and Xiao Lei away. β
"Where do you go? The city will certainly not allow them to go back. Yingsleeve walked around the house a little distraught.
Yuan Yinglan was silent for a long time and said, "...... Then stay there. Or change the yard and stay away from me. β
"I'll try." Yingsleeve stopped and looked at Yuan Yinglan, "You take care." With that, he turned and walked away.
As soon as she turned around, Yuan Yinglan opened her eyes suddenly, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, but she quickly closed her eyes again, and her chest was nauseous and vomiting, and she endured it again and again, before swallowing a mouthful of blood that was almost in her throat.
This time, she was really sick enough. I almost lost my life......
Yingsleeve came out of Yuan Ying's blue room and said to Yuan Yingjia and Tang Haijia: "Sister Lan asked you to go back, don't come to see her again." It is said that it is easy to get infected. β
Yuan Yingjia clenched his fists and said loudly into the room: "Sister! I'll come once a day! It's right outside the yard, you don't have to worry! With that, he turned and strode away.
Tang Haijia, who had been nesting in the corner, chased after him and went out of the gate with him.
Yingsleeve walked at the end with Caiyin.
However, when she just walked out of Yuan Yinglan's courtyard, she heard Yuan Yingjia talking to someone.
"Vice Minister Xie is here."
Yingsleeve looked up in surprise and saw that it was Xie Dongli coming. is greeting Yuan Yingjia.
Yingsleeve was about to step forward, but Tang Haijia blocked in front of her and said with a smile: "Ten days before getting married." The bridegroom is not allowed to see the bride. It will be unlucky to see it! β
Ying Sleeve glanced at her, pushed her away, and said lightly: "Today is the eleventh day before getting married, and you can still see it." β
There was a hint of joy on Xie Dongli's indifferent face, and it flashed. His gaze crossed over to Tang Haijia. Falling on the face of Yingsleeve, who was a head taller than Tang Haijia, Wen Yan said: "Sleeve sleeve, Your Majesty has a decree that you can move the Lady of Zhongzhenguo and the King of Chenjun to Zhuangzi to recuperate." - I am here to proclaim the decree. β
Ying Sleeve breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is really considerate. I was thinking about it just now. Neither Niang nor Xiaolei's illness is serious, but there are pox patients here, one is not good. When I got a pox, I had a big rash. β
When Yuan Yingjia heard this, she felt very uncomfortable. said to Xie Dongxi: "Is it the holy decree that Vice Minister Xie asked for from the emperor's grandfather?" Then he also arched his hand and said: "Then I will also enter the palace to ask for a decree." - It's better to live on your own village than here. As he spoke, he hurried away.
The Eastern Yuan Kingdom set up a temporary infirmary on the outskirts of the capital, because it was worried that the city would be densely populated and that this infectious disease would spread quickly, so the infected people were moved to live outside the city.
Unless there is a special purpose, people who have been diagnosed with epidemic rash by the doctor must go to this temporary infirmary, whether it is ordinary people or dignitaries.
Of course, the places where the common people and the dignitaries lived in the temporary infirmaries were different.
Dozens of ordinary people live in a large house, and dignitaries can live in a separate small courtyard.
Even so, some people would rather live in their own village than live in this makeshift infirmary.
Ever since Ying Sleeve knew that Yuan Yinglan lived next door to Shen Yongjie and Xiao Lei, she was playing drums in her heart, wondering if there was any way to move away, or Yuan Yinglan moved away, or Shen Yongjie and they moved away, but they couldn't live too close to them after all.
For Yingsleeve, the most important people in this life are her brother and mother.
If there was a mistake between the two of them, she would feel that she had lived this experience in vain.
Thinking like this, she became more and more grateful to Xie Donglian.
Xie Dongli looked at Yingsleeve's grateful appearance and smiled slightly, and said, "Mrs. Shen is already packing up her things, you go back first, and I'll send them to Zhuangzi." β
Yingsleeve insisted on refusing, and said, "I'm fine." I had to see them settle down in the Zhuangzi before I was relieved. β
Xie Dongli looked at her, and saw that her eyebrows were clear, her face was white and greasy, and her cheeks had a faint flush, and she couldn't see that she was haggard at all, let alone show signs of illness.
"Well, let's go together." Xie Dongli nodded, turned around and went to the courtyard next to him.
Ying Sleeves watched Shen Yongjie and Xiao Lei being carried out with a spring stool, with white scarves covering their faces.
The sun outside is dazzling, and it will be uncomfortable to shine on their faces.
The steward of the temporary infirmary came over and asked Yingsleeve, "May I ask the eldest lady if you want to bring two medical girls who can serve over?" We have spare medical women here, all of whom have followed the doctors of the Tai Hospital. He also said, "The imperial doctor will not enter the house to diagnose and dispense medicine for them, and the people serving inside still have to rely on the medical woman who understands medicine to explain the development of the disease to the imperial doctor outside, so that the imperial doctor can dispense medicine at his discretion." β
Xie Dongli looked at Ying Sleeve and asked, "Do you want them to come along?" β
Yingsleeve himself also knows how to dispense medicine, and knowing this, he really needs someone who understands medical science to do it, so he said: "Let's go to two." β
It's best to let professional people do professional things.
Although there are serving maids and women in the family, there are many other things that need to be taken into account when there is a disease like chickenpox.
Moreover, there are also imperial doctors who have served in the past, and the medical women who are familiar with the imperial doctors are even more important.
Xie Dongli saw that Yingsleeve agreed. He did not speak again.
The steward of the temporary infirmary called out the two medical women who had been assigned to this courtyard and asked them to follow them to the village of Yingsleeve's family.
The group came out of the makeshift infirmary and walked on the road to Zhuangzi.
On the road. Only then did they realize that there were too many carts and sedan chairs from the city, and they were all in a constant stream of people who were sent to the makeshift infirmary.
Yingsleeve saw that these people outside had anxious expressions on their faces in the car, sighed, and said to Xie Dongli: "...... This time the epidemic rash is menacing, I don't know what will happen......"
Xie Dongli closed his eyes, felt the situation around him, and said, "This time is more powerful than any previous time...... But. You're going to be okay. β
He opened his eyes and looked at Yingsleeve quietly.
The eyes that have always been cold and sharp are full of warmth.
Yingsleeve smiled at him and reached out to take his hand. But halfway through, he retracted and whispered, "...... Take care of yourself, there are eleven days to go......"
"Do you remember that clearly?" Xie Dongli's deep voice is very textured. I can hear that people are itching and crispy. Like a warm hand, gently caressing the heart.
"Of course I remember it clearly." Ying Sleeve tilted his head, looked at him and smiled, "I'm counting the days, I can't wait to marry Vice Minister Xie!" β
said it so frankly, Xie Dongli didn't feel like it was true, his body was a little hot, and his heart was a little bored for no reason. He looked out the window. pursed his lips and said, "Look at the congestion in front, I'll go down and take a look." With that, he lifted the curtain and jumped out of the car and walked forward.
Xie Dongli came out as a deputy minister, and there were many entourage guards with him, all of whom opened the way for him around him.
There was a commotion in the car ahead of them, and they slowly moved out of the way, allowing him to move forward.
Yingsleeve held his cheeks in the car, looking at Xie Donglian's back in fascination.
He was wearing a navy blue robe, a wide rhinoceros leather belt around his waist, his hair was tied on the top of his head, and he was wearing a dark official hat.
This back, the more Ying Sleeve looks at it, the more happy he becomes, the bright apricot eyes can't help but squint, and the lazy look on his face is like a cat.
Just then, she heard a "meow".
I lowered my head and saw Xiao Meow actually get in from under the curtain of the car, lying at her feet, looking up at her.
"Little Meow, why are you here?" Yingsleeve's heart moved, remembering that day, it was Xiao Meow who took her to the horse farm in the outer courtyard of the house, only to find Xiao Xing's strange appearance.
"Meow!" Little Meow called at her again, her voice was very eager, and she stood up, her back arched into an arch, and even her hair was about to explode.
Yingsleeve immediately stood up.
Bang!
I don't know what suddenly rushed from behind and crashed into the back of her carriage!
Yingsleeve quickly grabbed the handrail on the carriage to stabilize himself.
Little Meow was also hit by this momentum and flipped on the ground, rolling out from under the curtain.
"Shocked! Shocked! Someone outside the car shouted, "Get out of the way!" Get out of the way of the people in front! β
Ying Sleeve remembered that Shen Yongjie and Xiao Lei's car was behind her, and she didn't care about her own safety, so she hurriedly jumped out of the car.
I saw a long line of cars in the back, and countless people were injured.
Ying sleeves were in a hurry, and he was about to rush over to see what happened to Shen Yongjie and Xiao Lei.
Cai Sang and Cai Yin grabbed her together and said, "Miss, don't worry! Let the slaves and maids take a look! Mrs. and the little prince also have maids and mothers-in-law by their side! β
In order to save Shen Yongjie, the mother-in-law who knew kung fu next to Shen Yongjie was knocked unconscious and carried out of the car.
After a while, a medical woman got out of the car with a black cat in her arms and said to Yingsleeve, "It's the little prince's cat, right?" He smiled good-naturedly and said, "Miss, you can't have these cats and dogs around the patient." β
Yingsleeve hurriedly took the little meow over, and found that the cat somehow fainted, and hurriedly entrusted it to Caisang, and said, "Put the car up, watch it, and feed it some water." β
Picking mulberry should be answered, and go to cook by yourself.
Yingsleeve asked the medical girl who got out of the car, "Are my mother and Xiao Lei okay?" β
The doctor turned back to the car and said, "Madam, the eldest lady asked you if you were okay." β
"It's fine. Sleeve, are you alright? Shen Yongjie's voice came out weakly.
Yingsleeve's heart paused, and he hurriedly said: "It's okay, I'm fine!" Hello mother! β
Soon someone was carrying a stretcher to this side, and someone was lifted out of the car one after another, and the stretcher was bloody and looked very injured.
Xie Dongli heard the commotion behind him, looked back, and saw that there were several horses with red eyes, constantly pouting their hooves at the back of the Yingsleeve car, and hurriedly turned around and walked over.
I didn't see him running away, but the guards beside him noticed that Vice Minister Xie was far away from them in the blink of an eye, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he had returned to the car just now.
Xie Dongli put one hand on the wheel of the big car with his sleeves, and the big car that was trying to rush forward immediately stopped.
Yingsleeve turned around, just in time to see Xie Dongli retract his hand, and hurriedly said, "What happened just now?" β
"I don't know, I'll take a look." Xie Dongli said coldly and walked behind the Yingsleeve car.
The owners of the horses behind saw that a big official was coming, so he hurriedly pounced and knelt down to plead, and said with a handful of snot and tears: "...... My lord! My lord! The small one is not intentional! The villain's wife and children were sick and had to rush to the temporary infirmary, but these plagued beasts suddenly went crazy, and the villain couldn't stop them! β
Those people spread out their hands and showed Xie Dongli the blood marks on their hands, all of which were strangled by the reins of the horses.
Xie Dongli looked at them and didn't speak.
Ying Sleeve followed, saw this situation, and sighed: "Forget it." - Fifth brother, I'm fine, my family is fine, and they didn't mean to. β
Xie Dongli looked at her sideways, and said indifferently: "Since you don't pursue it, forget it, it can be regarded as a blessing." As he spoke, he raised his hand to the owners of the horses and said, "Let me think that you are eager to save people's hearts, and I will not take an example." So saying, he let them go.
There were also injured people in front, and when they turned around, they saw a few more stretchers being carried over.
"Forget it, let's go to Zhuangzi from that side of the path." Yingsleeve pointed to another way, "Otherwise, I don't know how long I will have to wait." β
Xie Dongli nodded, let Ying Sleeve get into the car, and nodded to the big car on Shen Yongjie and Xiao Lei's side, and said, "Follow the route that the eldest lady said." β
The people over there also got into the car, followed the road that Yingsleeve said, turned onto the road, and went all the way to Yingsleeve's Zhuangzi.
This is the Zhuangzi that Shen Yongjie married, and there are her people inside and out, and now there are more guards sent by Emperor Yuanhong, medical women sent by the temporary infirmary, and imperial doctors from the Tai Hospital.
As soon as Xie Dongli walked to the door of Zhuangzi, he saw a fast horse coming, and said to Xie Dongliang: "Vice Minister Xie, Your Majesty urgently summons the deputy minister to enter the palace, and there is a special envoy from Nanzheng State!" β
Xie Dongli looked at Ying Sleeve, "Can you handle it alone?" β
"It's okay, it's all at my house, where can't I cope?" Yingsleeve smiled and asked Xie Dongli to go back directly with the guards who came from the palace to deliver the decree.
Yingsleeve stayed on the Zhuangzi, watched the people inside and outside settle down, and inspected around again, and saw that everything was fine, so he returned to the courtyard where Shen Yongjie and Xiao Lei lived, and said through the window: "Mother, Xiao Lei, you live, I will come to see you in a few days." β
Shen Yongjie's weak voice came from the house: "No need, it will be fine in four or five days." Mother must go home before you get married. β
It's similar to what Shen Yongjie said before.
Seeing that it was getting late, Yingsleeve didn't go back and stayed here for one night.
Early the next morning, after saying goodbye to Shen Yongjie and Xiao Lei through the window, he set off to return to the capital.
Today is September 28, and there are still 10 days left before the day of her marriage on the eighth day of October.
