Chapter 21 A wave of unsettled waves
The night was getting deeper, but the rain hadn't been used yet, and it was beating on the window lattice, Qiong Yao's breathing had already gradually become heavy, but Du Yuchen looked at the bean-sized candlelight in the corner of the house, and couldn't sleep for a long time.
For some reason, the scene he saw at night always shook in front of his eyes: Luo Yan suddenly took out a bottle of rose dew like a trick, held it in her hand triumphantly, and shouted with a smile: "You can also find this good thing!" As he spoke, he snatched it over, except for Du Yuchen at the moment, everyone took a clean bowl and drank a little bit of it, laughing and making trouble, but Du Yuchen suddenly found that Luo Yan was only sitting quietly on the side, although she was smiling on her face, her eyes suddenly became lonely like snow, as if she was far away from all the people, and it would never be possible to get close. Du Yuchen felt as if he had been hit by a hammer in his heart.
It is undeniable that she has always hated Murong Luoyan - not so much because she likes Yuan Min'er, but because she hates a woman who strongly intervenes in her life in such a desperate way-why is she? Yuan Min'er's grievances and tears added to this disgust. But it was only recently that he seemed to really see the woman he had hated for three years: her endless whimsy, her neat and neat way of doing things, but the closer he got and the more he looked, the more he couldn't understand: she took good care of herself, always amused him, but never touched a finger of him; She seems carefree and loves to laugh, but she always inadvertently reveals an indescribable loneliness and confusion......
It wasn't until tonight that Du Yuchen felt that he suddenly understood that she was always hidden behind the fragility of being happy and hearty, in fact, think about it, just compare it with Yuan Min'er, Yuan Min'er has a strong maiden family and clansmen, has the respect and recognition of the Du Mansion, and has his care and love, and this Murong Luoyan, who he has always thought is very strong and domineering, is really nothing-and because of himself.
Listening to the sound of the dripping rain outside, Du Yuchen slowly made up his mind: from tomorrow, he will start to treat Murong Luoyan as his wife and treat her well, so that she will no longer have to show such a desolate expression. Thinking about what he was going to say and do tomorrow, his heart became warm......
Early the next morning, Du Yuchen got up early in the morning, freshened up as usual, Murong Luoyan, who would come over on weekdays, was nowhere to be seen, Du Yuchen endured it for a long time and didn't think about who to ask, so he saw Tianzhu come over with a flustered face and said: "Ruxiao, you hurry up and tell Madame, my princess has not gotten up in the morning, just now I went to touch it, and her forehead was so hot that she couldn't wake up." ”
Ruxiao was shocked, Du Yuchen also leaned forward and almost didn't fall out of bed, Qiong Yao hurriedly held him up. Ruxiao hurriedly called a little girl with the fastest legs and feet to report to Rongxi Courtyard, and she walked quickly to the study where Luo Yan had recently lived, only to see that her face was burned red, her eyes were closed, and she looked very bad, Qingqing was standing by the bed, her face was heavy.
Mrs. Du got the letter here, and she was also startled, so she hurriedly sent someone to ask Mrs. Gao, it happened that this day was the day when Du Yuchen changed the dressing, but the old doctor Mu of the Huichun Hall arrived earlier than usual, Mrs. Du asked people to ask, whether he could see typhoid fever and other diseases, but Dr. Mu smiled and said that he mainly had external injuries, and he had naturally seen emergency diseases such as typhoid fever, but he couldn't say that he was good at it. When Mrs. Du got this, she asked him to go and see Murong Luoyan first.
Du Yuchen knew here, and it was also a stack of voices urging the doctor to show Luo Yan first, and Doctor Mu diagnosed the pulse for a long time, and when he came out, he muttered: "The lungs of the poisonous evil offenders are like measles that have occurred frequently in children recently--I don't look like my wife's age, have you had a rash before?" Have you been working extra hard lately? ”
Qingqing said: "I haven't gotten it." Everyone thought about Luo Yan's hard work recently, and her face had lost weight, so she was naturally tired. The old doctor said, this disease doesn't matter, take medicine first to get the fever down, and if you have a rash, you will be fine. Just one thing, after the rash, the patient is most afraid of the wind, and it is better to recuperate behind closed doors, and it is better not to touch the sick and weak, so as not to pass the sickness - but those who have had it before are not afraid.
Mrs. Du let go of half of her heart when she heard "it doesn't matter", thinking that Erlang was not also injured, so she couldn't care about his unhappy face, and couldn't help but say that she would move him back to the upper room first, and guard it herself.
Luo Yan's side, as soon as she asked the people who were serving in the courtyard who had it before, Tianzhu Qingqing could say it, and Aunt Fang also said it, Xiao Meng stood there and meditated, but she couldn't remember it - only then did everyone find that Meizi did not show up, and when they knocked on her door and went in, they also started a fever. Suddenly, the girls in the courtyard were a little flustered, and Mrs. Du thought about whether to move the plums out, Xiao Meng hurriedly said: "I'll take care of the plums, no one else needs to enter that room, so naturally no one can go." ”
Qingqing immediately said, on the princess's side, she and Tianzhu are just guarding the house, and the food and medicine are all sent by Aunt Fang, so it is okay to come. However, a few little girls who had just left their heads in this courtyard recently shouted to serve the princess, but Qingqing said coldly: "The doctor just said that this disease is the easiest to give to children, you should hurry up and stay away, otherwise it will be more troublesome if you get sick." "Only a little girl who has just entered the house to do rough work is sprinkler, and she only had a rash last year. Aunt Fang nodded and said, "With this girl doing chores, the things in the kitchen can be managed without others." ”
After discussing for a while, Imperial Doctor Gao arrived in a hurry, went in to check the pulse, and said that it was a poisonous evil lung, I heard that the old doctor Mu of the Rejuvenation Hall had just diagnosed and said that he was afraid of a rash, and after reading the prescription, he shook his head: "It is good for evil qi to enter the lungs, and the qi is not good today, I heard that there are many rashes among folk children, but the princess is not very young, how can she easily get this?" This medicine is still neutral and peaceful, but it is too cathartic. Mother Zheng listened to it for a long time, and after being familiar with Dr. Gao, she smiled and said, "Don't drop your bookbag with me, it's the same, is it a rash?" What can I take? ”
Imperial Physician Gao touched his beard and thought for a while before he said: "Doctor Mu is famous, since he said so, the princess is delicate, if she has been working too hard recently, she may not be infected with evil rashes. Even if it is not a rash, there is nothing wrong with this medicine, but it is better than treating it according to the usual method in case it is a rash. The princess's illness looks urgent, but it is okay, let people take care of it properly, drink more water, don't worry too much, I'll come back in two days. "Mother Zheng got this letter, so she asked people to grab the decoction of medicine without mentioning it.
Here, Mrs. Du was worried about Du Yuchen in her heart, and after telling Tianzhu, she went back to the upper room, there was a ready-made warm pavilion in the upper room, Du Yuchen had already moved in, Ruxiao Ruxiang Qiongyao and many girls were still waiting. Dr. Mu also came over to show him the injury and change the dressing, but said with a smile: "Congratulations to the second son, your injury is healing quickly, it seems that you don't need to put on the guard today, you can move first, if you have nothing to do, you can try to go to the ground in two days, but don't be anxious, step by step, and make sure you walk the same as before at the end of the month." ”
Du Yuchen was overjoyed, and Zheng's mother said: "Hurt your muscles and bones for a hundred days, didn't you say that you would have to lie down for at least a month?" Doctor Mu said with a smile: "The second son's bones are fine, but the knee tendons are damaged, but this disease is the most difficult to say, I originally saw that the second son is a scholar, but I am afraid that he is weak, but I didn't expect the house to take care of it carefully, and the second son is a good muscle, and it was only twenty days before he got better, but I was wrong before." ”
Du Yuchen was also overjoyed, and sure enough, he slowly tried to move - his knees were sore and stiff, and he was very uncomfortable. Doctor Mu smiled and said, "Childe feels stiff? It's good slowly, I don't have to eat the decoction anymore, I'll leave a bottle of medicinal oil, wait for it to be warm, slowly knead it in, and after a while, it won't be so hard. Wipe it twice a day, and wait until there is no stiffness before you can go to the ground. When Mrs. Du heard the return, she was also in a happy mood, so she made a generous package of medical fees, and sent a proper person to send Dr. Mu out without mentioning it.
Du Yuchen asked Zheng's mother: "On the princess's side, does the doctor say it matters?" Zheng's mother said: "Second master, don't worry, the two doctors said it doesn't matter, but I'm afraid that there will be a rash, so I have to raise it for a few more days, and I have already gone to grab medicine." ”
Ruxiao has been getting along with Luo Yan very well these days, so she said: "My younger brother also had a rash, looking at the high fever, but it didn't matter, and now there is no scar left." I just heard from the doctor in the Rejuvenation Hall that the princess's illness was caused by overwork. Du Yuchen frowned and was silent. Qiong Yao secretly glanced at Ruxiao, hurriedly took the bottle of medicinal oil, and said with a smile: "It's useless for the second master to worry, it's better to hurry up yourself, so that the ladies and grandmothers can not be hung on both ends." ”
Mother Zheng went back and smiled with Mrs. Du: "I see that the second master is like that, he is really worried about the princess, just now Qiong Yao rubbed the medicine for him, and he was also stunned!" Mrs. Du sighed: "He has been recuperating for more than half a month, and he is really enlightened, not to mention him, don't we think it is rare?" That child is a thoughtful person, careful and thoughtful, it is rare to respect herself, and she is not jealous, Ruxiao They all said that as soon as Min'er came, she would avoid it, Qiong Yao was so domineering and did not let others interfere, she was also polite. It's just the little girls, serving the patient is the most tiring and thankless thing, but I dialed these girls, which one didn't say that she was good? This is much stronger than Yuan Min'er. ”
Mother Zheng nodded: "Originally, the eldest lady always said that the princess's reputation in Dayan Nuo was the most noble and intelligent person, we looked at her appearance, just thought it was a big word made up by the northerners themselves, but I didn't expect it to be that truth, but now it is not an exaggeration to look at it in the past two months, but it is a pity that it has been three years." If she was like this before, I'm afraid that she would have children with the second master. ”
Mrs. Du smiled: "You are confused, if it weren't for that, how could she marry into our family." I only thought that this thing was just good-looking on the surface, but it was a mess on the inside, and I couldn't get used to her appearance, so I just thought about it and looked at it. ”
The master and servant were talking and laughing, and in a blink of an eye, it was lunchtime, and suddenly Ruyue came up to say: "Mrs. Xiangguo has sent Madam Kong to see Madame." Mrs. Du and Zheng's mother looked at each other and were stunned: What happened again?
