Chapter 41: High Fever

No one expected that Lu Weimang, who had always been very strong, would get sick, and his condition was menacing.

From the foot of Jingshan that day, Lu Weimang just felt that it might be a psychological factor, and felt a headache, after returning to the house, let the family not worry, she went back to her room to lie down and rest, but she didn't expect to sleep more and more.

Lu Weimang, who had never experienced illness, didn't know that he was sick at first, but he felt a headache, uncomfortable, and couldn't sleep.

Or because she didn't sleep in the middle of the night, the uncomfortable sound of tossing and turning on the bed attracted Xiao Xia, who had always served her.

Xiao Xia listened to Lu Weimang say that she had a headache in a daze, and tried to lift the bed tent, only to find that her cheeks were red, and when she touched her forehead, it was hot and seemed to burn people's skin.

Xiao Xia exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly went to call someone.

The doctor soon came to the house, asked for a pulse, and said that it was the wind evil into the body, and it was staggered in the heart, so he had a fever, but the little lady's body has always been healthy, and the foundation is thick, and a dose of medicine will go down to ensure that she will be alive and kicking the next day.

The doctor swore an oath, and everyone in the Lu family breathed a sigh of relief.

Cheng Yang and Changfeng couldn't open their eyes when they saw Sister A's burning, and they spoke in a daze, worried.

"Sister always says that she is as strong as a cow, and she envy other little ladies who are sick and weak for three days, especially like a girl. Now it can be regarded as her wish. ”

Cheng Yang wanted to learn from Sister A and say something lighter to comfort Changfeng, but if his voice could not be nasal, it should be more convincing.

Changfeng's eyes were red, but he didn't cry and cry as much as he usually followed Sister A, and he held back his emotions at this time, "Originally, there were three of us sisters and brothers, always in one room, Sister Ah has never been sick, why don't you rest with Sister Ah today, and when Sister Ah wakes up and sees us, maybe I'll be sick." ”

The two little ones were lying on the side of Lu Weimang's bed and talking, and let Lu Qingshan mention them one by one, "Okay, your sister is just sweating and blowing the wind, and she didn't change her clothes in time, so the wind and evil entered the body." Didn't the doctor say, if you take a dose of medicine, you will be fine tomorrow. You go back to rest honestly, if you wake up tomorrow and see one or two of you with dark circles on your face, you should be angry. ”

After appeasing the two sons, Lu Qingshan came to Lu Weimang's bed lightly.

"Master, you have to go to the yamen tomorrow. Let's go over there and take care of the young lady here. ”

Steward Lu has been busy for a long time, please ask the doctor, arrange for someone to grab the medicine, and make the medicine for someone, and when he saw the master come back, he persuaded the master to rest.

"Don't fight with me. On weekdays, Weimang sees you more than I see me, and I take you with me wherever I go, so I have to behave well and fight with you for this credit. As for the upper office, let's see the situation tomorrow. ”

The two old gentlemen were in front of Lu Weimang's bed, and one of them found an embroidered pier to guard and whispered.

"My father, isn't he too rough, no matter how capable Wei Mang is, he is also a little girl, which is different from us rough old men."

Steward Lu waved his hand, also lowering his voice, "Master doesn't have to think too much, overkill, it's not good." Before entering the house, Miss Weimang spoke very little along the way, and I knew that she was uneasy, after all, I had never gotten along with you. Later, when you handed over the livelihood of the house to Miss Weimang, she seemed to have untied the shackles and became more and more comfortable in the house day by day. ”

Steward Lu looked at Lu Weimang's flushed face, and his words seemed to be distressed and a little proud, "I heard that Miss Weimang loved her the most when she was a child, even if she has no memories of her childhood, she is still a temperament raised in the nest, and the atmosphere is a little domineering." Later, you were drafted, and you went for five years, to tell you the truth, I went to your hometown to inquire, the former lady is not an idea, the family is big and small, it should be Miss Weimang, so that the family will not be bullied. But after all, she is small and weak, and adults are sometimes unreasonable, so she has no choice but to be angry. That's why she developed a self-reliant and negative character. ”

The old butler sighed, "I've lived so long, and I've seen a lot of people. Thousands of people have thousands of faces, some are hearty, some are smart, some are weak on the surface, no matter what their temperament is, as long as they are clear in their hearts, selfish people always live easier than others. Miss Weimang, like you, is a kind person, and her eyes are bright, but sometimes she is stupid and can't say it. It's like a glass of water that can't melt a drop of oil. Miss's extreme temperament looks like a big grin, and I'm always worried that Huiji will hurt, so it's better to be confused. ”

If Lu Weimang heard what Steward Lu said, he would probably jump up in surprise.

She often feels that she is too extreme and contradictory, so rare confusion is her motto. But if you can do it, it won't be a motto.

"Are you saying that Weimang has a lot of things in his heart?"

Lu Qingshan frowned and asked the housekeeper.

The butler sighed. It would be nice if the young lady's sensitivity and thoughtfulness could be neutralized with the careless eyes of the master.

"Is it too light, in the future, let her go to the school yard to ride horses and shoot arrows, and practice martial arts on horseback, in short, let her be tired and have no time to think about it, no time to worry about herself, wouldn't it be better? When I first entered the army, I was also sad every day. Later, when he entered His Majesty's command, he practiced ruthlessly, and he didn't think about anything, but his life was better. ”

Some people are born with thick lines and tendons, and the housekeeper gave up talking to his master anymore, and he didn't know how the master's rough stone-like foundation grew such thin bamboo shoots as young lady.

"Miss looks better, you go lie down for a while, and in the middle of the night, you can change me."

Steward Lu drove away his own general.

"Then I'll sleep for an hour, and then I'll change you."

Some people are born with a lack of that emotional string, and there is no way to do it. People who have no heart and lungs live the happiest life, maybe they are stupid people have stupid blessings.

Steward Lu looked at his master falling asleep in a second, and thought with some indignation.

An hour later, Lu Qingshan woke up on time, as if he had been in the barracks before.

"Okay, it's me, you go to sleep for a while."

"Well, Miss seems to have a fever, you see her lips are dry, give her some water."

When the old housekeeper fell asleep, Lu Qingshan sighed and stroked his daughter's forehead, which was still a little hot. "In the past, in the village, I always felt that the general riding a big horse was majestic, and I always looked forward to the day when I could become a general and shelter my family from the wind and rain. When I had some achievements in my life, I found that the farmer has the suffering of the farmer, and the general has the suffering of the general. is as majestic as a general, and there are also generals and sisters, and they also have their own sufferings. In a blink of an eye, you have all grown up and come through suffering. Daddy hasn't read a few books, so he doesn't have any great skills to teach you. I only hope that you will be able to grow your own skills, so that you can live with confidence in the future. Life is not easy, you need to grow your own skills, and no one can replace anyone. ”

In the middle of the night, the moonlight like water shone into the house through the screen window, and a big man, sitting aggrievedly on the embroidery pier, talked softly with his daughter like an old friend, and put his hand on the girl's red forehead, as if he wanted to share some of the burning heat for her.

Lu Weimang was originally uncomfortable because of a headache and a swaying head, because of the comfort of this dry hand, it was like a floating boat on the sea with a Dinghai divine needle, and gradually stabilized.

She burned uncomfortably, couldn't wake up and couldn't sleep, she was a little clear in a daze, listening to the whispers in her ear, feeling the comfort on her forehead, although she still had a headache, she was inexplicably not so uncomfortable.

Lu Weimang has not received much love since he was a child because of the many sisters and brothers in his family. She is in good health, and when she was a child, she was sick and uncomfortable a few times, and her parents always asked her to drink some hot water and lie down for a while.

They were too busy to keep watch over her.

But she always remembers that when she was five or six years old, before going to school, there was a time when a child had an epidemic rash, and she was unfortunately hit. For a whole week, she had a high fever that did not go away, and the child who was like a calf on weekdays could not stand on her feet on rare occasions, and her voice was full of energy on weekdays, and it was so weak that people could not hear it.

That week, her father bought her snacks that she didn't have on weekdays. Her mother even hugged her in her arms in the middle of the night when she was crying uncomfortably.

It's so warm, this embrace.

Later, when she recovered, she regained her strength like a calf. Every time she goes to school and sees other classmates sick and asking for leave, she can't help but yearn for it. I don't know if it's longing for not having to go to school, or missing the short-lived warmth when I was a child.

After growing up without illness and disaster, the concern of this warm embrace was pressed by her in the deepest part of her heart. She didn't get it for too long, she felt that she had forgotten, and she even firmly wanted to live a comfortable life alone, and never wanted to have such warmth again.

Who knows, this fever is just the hand covering her forehead, the warm and dry feeling, as if she felt the warm feeling when she was five or six years old in her previous life again.

It turned out that her desire for family affection and love in her heart has not disappeared.

"I'm sick and I'm getting injections and taking medicine, why do you tell me?"

She seems to have said this to someone else.

It turned out that she was wrong. When you are sick and uncomfortable, not only medicine is useful, but care and love are also useful.

At this time, her head didn't seem to be uncomfortable.

At dawn, the doctor came for a follow-up visit, and his pulse was smooth and strong, and his body was already well.

"But my daughter is still asleep."

Lu Qingshan was a little worried.

"It's normal for illness to come like a mountain and go away like a thread."

What the doctor said was categorical, but just after sending the doctor away, Lu Weimang burned again.

The housekeeper hurriedly retrieved the doctor.

If it weren't for the fact that this was a famous doctor in the capital, Lu Qingshan would have been eager to hammer him twice at this time.

In the stares of the Lu family, the doctor took the pulse for a long time this time, "It's strange, obviously the pulse is so powerful, why does the person still have a high fever?" ”

Lu Qingshan and Cheng Yang Changfeng stared at the doctor, waiting for him to speak, but he just shook his head. "It's hard to say, it's hard to say."

The doctor shook his head and went out, only asking the people of the Lu family to change her handkerchief and pay attention to cooling down, and he couldn't do anything else.

The Lu family hurriedly looked for other doctors.

It burned for another day, and at night, it seemed that the fever had subsided somewhat. But with the experience of yesterday, Steward Lu asked his young lady and master for leave in advance, after all, after the Hero Festival had passed, they had gone to school.

Qin Xuan heard that Lu Weimang was sick, and he was anxious all day, so he hurried back to his house after school, took his mother's old ginseng and ran to Lu Mansion.

The quiet Qin Hou Mansion was disturbed by Qin Xuan's movements.

If it's just on weekdays, there are guests in the Qinhou Mansion today.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Are there any rules? ”

Qin Hou looked at Huo Jing beside him, then at his son, and shook his head.

When he returned to Beijing this time, Huo Jing also had a task in his body, and there was an abnormal movement at the border, and he came to Qinhou Mansion this time to ask Qin Hou about the next border military plan of the imperial court.

After all, the soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, and the Marquis of Qin is in charge of half of the money and grain of the imperial court, and he still has to discuss and cooperate with the Marquis of Qin if he has some plans.

As he was talking, he saw Qin Xuan hurriedly go out, still holding a wooden box in his arms.

"Lu Niangzi is sick, I heard that I came back from Jingshan and had a fever for two days, so I went to visit."

Qin Hou's face softened slightly, "Well, go ahead, you go to visit, if Little Lady Lu still doesn't get better, come back and get the name sticker in the house to ask for a doctor." ”

"Well, thank you, father."

Qin Xuan nodded vigorously, saluted Huo Jing with a fist, and then hurried away again.

Huo Jing listened to Lu Weimang's news, and after coming out of the Qinhou Mansion, he asked Ding Yi to invite the imperial doctor to go to the Lu Mansion to have a look.

"How?"

When he came back from the imperial doctor who went to Lu Mansion for treatment, he was brought to Huo Jing by Ding Yi.

"When she went to her humble position, Miss Lu was no longer in trouble after drinking the medicine. It's just that judging from the pulse, Miss Lu seems to be a little depressed at a young age, so she can't afford to linger. But in the end, he is young and his foundation is good, so it would be good to rest for another day. ”

After sending off the imperial doctor, Ding Yi and Lin Chen were a little entangled.

"What's wrong with you, a bitter gourd face?"

Huo Jing couldn't stand the bitter faces of the two subordinates, so he simply asked.

"Childe, did Miss Lu fall ill because she was angry with you that day? After all, she rode away that day, and she fell ill when she went back, should we go and see? ”

Lin Chen said with some hesitation.

When Huo Jing heard this, he was silent for a moment, "I'll forget it, you can go if you want." With that, he looked down at the map of the northern territory on the table.

Lin Chen and Ding Yi had to withdraw from the study, and the two of them came to the porch, now that the weather is hot, but it is not yet time to use the iceberg, the inside of the house is not as cool as the outside of the house, but the figure sitting at the desk at the end of the room seems to have no feeling, immersed in his own affairs.

Ding Yi said to Lin Chen next to him, "It's okay if Gongzi doesn't go, now the queen is always staring at our Gongzi, wanting Gongzi to get engaged before going to the north, and Gongzi is asking for trouble if he goes to Lu Mansion." ”

Lin Chen listened and muttered in a low voice, "Isn't it good to go?" ”

was slapped by Ding Yi next to him, "Don't talk nonsense." ”

"Why are you filming me?"

Lin Chen shook his shoulders and refused to accept it, Ding Yi saw Lin Chen's eyes glaring again, so he had to say clearly, "Childe is focused on the war in Northern Xinjiang at this time, and he has no intention of caring about him at all, don't always make noise around Childe, like some gossip women." ”

Seeing that Lin Chen was still unconvinced, Ding Yi had no choice but to be patient, "Gongzi is about to set off for the north in the near future, there are many famous generals in the DPRK, this is just the beginning of a new dynasty, they are busy competing for fame and fortune in Kyoto, so they can give Gongzi, a younger generation, a chance." If they miss this opportunity, when they gain a firm foothold, where will there be a chance for the son to make contributions? After a long time, everyone in the army will forget the glory of my Huo family, and it will be difficult for the son to pick it up again. ”

Lin Chen stopped talking and went to see the son sitting under the west window of the study.

Childe grew up in the palace with all the princes, but once General Huo died, the foundation of Childe's life and the backing of the queen's mother all dissipated.

In order to regain the status of the Huo family in the army, and in order to let the queen mother have another reliance, his son-in-law must seize every opportunity.

It is said that their son-in-law was born to be the pride of the sky, but the people who followed the son-in-law knew how heavy the burden was on the son.
