The next day, it was dark.

Shen Yuechen listened to Mother Wu's soft voice, and slowly woke up as if she were talking. She opened her hazy sleepy eyes, gently lifted the pale cyan gauze tent next to the bed, and saw that Mother Wu was standing at the table with a sad face, bowing her head and whispering something to Chun Ming.

Her voice was very soft and soft, but Shen Yuechen still noticed it.

Last night, she went to bed early, so she woke up early.

Shen Yuechen stood up, turned his head to look at Zhu Jintang, and saw that he was breathing evenly and powerfully, and he was still sleeping deeply, so he got up and got out of bed lightly.

As soon as Chun Ming saw that the curtain moved, she knew that the young lady was awake, and hurriedly Wu Ma greeted her one after the other.

Shen Yuechen waved his hand and took them to the outside world, not wanting to disturb Zhu Jintang's sleep.

Mother Wu hurriedly poured her a cup of warm tea and rinsed her mouth, and then whispered, "Did I wake up Miss?" ”

Shen Yuechen shook his head slightly, his eyes were still a little misty: "I should have woken up, is there something wrong with my mother?" ”

If it was left in normal times, Wu's mother would be busy in the kitchen.

Wu's mother nodded: "Sister Ying'er had a fever last night, and she didn't get better all night." ”

"What?" Shen Yuechen was stunned for a moment, but then immediately woke up and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier when the child was sick, I saw that she was fine when I was eating last night......

Children with fever are the most important things to delay, and if you don't pay attention to it, something will happen.

Mother Wu sighed lightly: "The slave maid also just knew that Sister Ying was taken over by Aunt Cao to play last night, and because she was too late to play, she slept there directly." Who knows, in the morning, the maid next to Aunt Cao came to say that Sister Ying was sick and had a fever all the time. ”

Shen Yuechen rinsed her mouth in a hurry, she didn't care about drinking tea anymore, and while motioning to Chun Ming to help her dress and comb her hair, she said softly: "Have you sent someone to ask for a doctor?" ”

Mother Wu cautiously glanced at the inner room, and whispered back: "I have sent someone to invite it, but the sky is not yet bright, and it is estimated that it will take some effort." ”

This will be before dawn, and the medicine hall and the medical hall will not be open.

Shen Yuechen frowned slightly, hurriedly went to Cao's room, and said secretly in his heart: Usually watching Cao's mind carefully, how can this be annoying. A child's fever is a big deal, and if it's serious, it can kill someone. What's more, in this era, there is not even the most basic antipyretic, and you can only rely on physical cooling......

Shen Yuechen's heart was pounding in a hurry, but he didn't know that Zhu Jintang had woken up at this time.

Since Zhu Ying was raised by Shen Yuechen's side, she has been taken care of very carefully by the maids, and she has never left people, and the food is also the best, no worse than Brother Ming, which makes the maids often talk in private, saying that Sister Ying is blessed, although she is just a concubine, she is taken care of by the grandmother as her own.

As soon as Shen Yuechen entered Cao's room, she saw Cao standing next to the bed and wiping his tears with a handkerchief.

The curtain beside the bed had been lowered, and in the haze, a small figure could be vaguely seen in the embroidered quilt inside.

Shen Yuechen's brows tightened a little.

This is not the time to cry.

When Cao saw Shen Yuechen coming in, he immediately got up and choked up, "Grandma, you're here." ”

Shen Yuechen didn't look at her much, walked straight to the bed, lifted the curtain, leaned in and probed Zhu Ying's forehead, and it was really hot. Then, she touched her little hands and feet covered in the quilt again, and when she saw that they were all cold, she couldn't help but sink in her heart.

Cao Shi said with tears in his mouth: "Grandma, how is this good? ”

Zhu Ying is her lifeline, and she is also her greatest hope in this life, in case something happens to the child, she will not be able to live.

Shen Yuechen tucked the quilt for Zhu Ying, glanced back at Cao's family, and said in a cold tone: "The child is not feeling well, so he should have sent someone to say it earlier, how could he delay this time?" ”

When Cao Shi heard this, his face was extremely ugly, and he was uncertain for a while, and he opened his mouth, but he didn't say a word.

Zhu Ying was a little lazy last night, a little feverish, she thought it was a big deal, so she let her go to bed early, and then she took the time to deal with some small things. Who knows, when I get up in the morning and touch the child's head, it will be like this.

Cao's will be completely panicked, teary-eyed, and at a loss, which makes people feel a little upset.

Shen Yuechen waved her hand and instructed the maid beside her: "Take Aunt Cao out first, and then, let the kitchen boil hot water, the more the better, and then bring a bottle of sake." After speaking, he lifted the quilt and lightly took off the clothes on Zhu Ying's body.

Physical heat reduction is the only available method now, Zhu Ying's body has been tightly covered, which is not good, she has to take off too many clothes for the child to let Zhu Ying reheat.

When Chun Ming and Mother Wu saw her undressing Zhu Ying, they were stunned at first, and before they could ask questions, they heard Shen Yuechen say again: "Change the towel to a cold one, don't soak it with hot water, be sure to use cold water." ”

As he spoke, the wine had already been delivered.

Shen Yuechen hurriedly took off the bracelet on his wrist, and then rolled up his wide sleeves and pulled it all the way to his elbow.

Seeing this, Chun Ming hurriedly said, "Miss, let the slave help you." ”

Shen Yuechen directly poured the sake into the palm of his hand, followed it, and applied it to Zhu Ying's forehead and neck, as well as all the places on his body where large blood vessels were distributed.

For a moment, the slightly pungent smell of wine instantly permeated the entire room.

The maids looked sideways, although they didn't understand the grandmother's intentions, but no one dared to stop them, just stood quietly aside.

Cao Shi was half-pushed and half-allowed to go out Cao Shi didn't want to leave, and was about to speak, but saw Zhu Jintang walk in with a gloomy face, and when he saw her, he asked: "It's only been one night, why is the child sick?" ”

Cao said with tears on his innocent face: "The concubine doesn't know ......"

The child suddenly fell ill, which she didn't expect.

Zhu Jintang had a cold face, and the tip of his nose immediately smelled a burst of wine.

How can a sick child's room smell of alcohol?

Shen Yuechen was busy taking care of Zhu Ying, not paying any attention to Zhu Jintang, Zhu Ying was still asleep in a daze, her eyes didn't open, but she kept humming uncomfortably in her mouth.

When Mother Wu saw Zhu Jintang coming, she hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Uncle, you are here, grandma is taking care of Sister Ying." ”

Zhu Jintang glanced at Shen Yuechen and saw that she was wiping the child's body with sake, so he couldn't help frowning: "What are you doing here?" ”

Shen Yuechen heard his voice and didn't turn to look at him, at this time, all her attention was on Zhu Ying's body.

It was a lot of work to explain the situation, and she said succinctly: "I have to cool her down first, and for now, this is the most feasible way." ”

She knew that Zhu Jintang would not understand her, but he would believe her.

Shen Yuechen wiped Zhu Ying's body, then picked her up and fed her a large bowl of warm water, and finally, put an ice towel on her forehead.

She was busy alone for a long time until the doctor arrived in a hurry.

Mother Wu and Chun Ming stood aside, occasionally helping her, but they didn't ask too much.

Because it was a child's fever, the doctor was also very embarrassed, and after careful consideration, he just prescribed some decoction with moderate medicinal properties, and advised: "If the fever can be reduced within two hours, it will be fine, if it does not go away, I am afraid that the dose will be increased." ”

Children should be most careful with the medicine, in case of using the medicine of the tiger and wolf, not only can not cure the disease, but also the consequences are serious.

Shen Yuechen nodded, knowing that he had done his best, so he instructed the maid to send him to the outside to write a prescription, and then hurry up to boil the medicine.

After the doctor left, Shen Yuechen stayed by Zhu Ying's side, changing her towels from time to time to check her temperature.

Zhu Ying's face was flushed, her eyelashes were still trembling slightly, and she knew that she was still sleeping unsteadily.

Seeing the child suffering, Shen Yuechen was also sad in her heart, thinking to herself, if she knew this, she should have been brought back last night. Now, with such a serious illness, if it burns into pneumonia or hurts the brain, wouldn't it delay the child's life.

Because he couldn't rest assured, Shen Yuechen took care of Zhu Ying all morning, doing everything himself, while Zhu Jintang was waiting outside, still wearing pajamas, frowning slightly, and looking like he didn't say a word, which made people feel pressured.

Shen Yuechen watched Zhu Ying drink the decoction, and waited for more than half an hour, during which Mother Wu had persuaded her to take a rest, but Shen Yuechen shook her head and refused.

At this time, she can't leave, and she doesn't dare to leave. Thankfully, those cooling measures worked.

Shen Yuechen touched her forehead, it was no longer hot, but it was slightly hot, her heart was a little calm, she sighed deeply, and then turned around and instructed Chun Ming: "Don't cover Sister Ying'er with too thick a quilt, change the towel frequently, and give her some warm water every half an hour, so that the girls can cheer up, don't be careless, let her get cold again, something goes wrong." ”

Chun Ming nodded again and again: "Miss, don't worry, the slave maid is here in person, and she will definitely take care of Sister Ying." ”

Shen Yuechen rubbed Zhu Ying's face, she was already sweating a little, and she slept a lot more peacefully.

Mother Wu thought about it, it was time to go to the kitchen to make something for Zhu Ying's appetite herself, so she quietly withdrew.

Suddenly, Zhu Jintang saw her walk out calmly, and the expression on her face also turned cloudy.

Shen Yuechen smiled slightly: "Sister Ying'er is fine, she has already seen sweat on her body, and Uncle can rest assured." ”

When Zhu Jintang heard this, he nodded and said, "You are also tired, and you have been busy all morning." Just now, someone from the upper room came to ask, and it seems that grandmother and they all know. ”

Shen Yuechen had expected this to happen, they didn't come over to say hello in the morning, and the elders would definitely ask.

"The concubine will go back and change her clothes, and I will explain to the old lady in person in a while."

While speaking, Cao Shi walked in again, she had been crying just now, and her eyes were still red and swollen. However, his face was clean, and it seemed that he had touched up his makeup and applied some powder.

Seeing this, Shen Yuechen shook his head secretly.

In the past, she still liked Cao's family, not because of her flattering personality, but because of her dedication to Zhu Ying. But now, there seemed to be a lot more distractions in Cao's heart, and it also distracted her attention from Zhu Ying, which undoubtedly made Shen Yuechen feel very unhappy...... Or even angry......
