Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 136 Night Watch
Some people also carried quicklime and threw it everywhere.

There were also people pushing wooden carts with a large bucket of concoction and distributing it to the busy people.

In addition, there is a place for taking turns to bathe, which is full of medicinal energy.

The place where clothes are washed is concentrated, and the smell of medicine is overwhelming.

In addition, there is also a "propaganda team" beating gongs and drums. After catching someone, they start to preach the method of preventing and controlling the plague...

The whole city is noisy inside and outside the city. It seems to be a mess, but in fact it is orderly!

Zhu Xiuyuan's method of preventing and controlling the plague was carried out step by step.

Of course, the person with such organizational ability must be Dong Cheng in the yamen.

Only Dong Cheng can keep everything in order in this chaotic, primitive situation without convenient means of communication.

……

Dong Mansion.

midnight.

Zhu Xiuyuan's room was lit with dozens of candles, illuminating the whole room brightly.

On the bed, Zhu Xiuyuan closed his eyes tightly, not waking up yet.

In front of the bed, three masters and servants, Dong Shuzhen, Qiu Wen, and Xia Wu, sat on three chairs respectively, facing Zhu Xiuyuan, staring at him blankly, as if Zhu Xiuyuan would suddenly wake up and run away.

The three masters and servants did not speak and sat quietly.

Qiu Wen and Xia Wu nodded their heads from time to time, then immediately opened their eyes and stared "hard" at the sleeping Zhu Xiuyuan.

Then his eyes gradually dimmed, and he nodded his head again...

Dong Shuzhen leaned her head on the back of the chair and stared at Zhu Xiuyuan, motionless, not knowing what she was thinking in her heart.

Boom boom boom!
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

Then came Dong Shuyu's voice: "Zhen'er, open the door quickly, we are here to take over from you."

Dong Shuzhen twisted her stiff neck and suddenly realized that it was already midnight.

She winked at Xia Wu, who immediately went to open the door.

Dong Shuzhen and Qiu Wen also stood up and moved the chairs back to their original positions.

"Zhen'er, it's time. You should go back and rest first. The rest of the night will be left to the three of us." Dong Shuyu, Chun Xue, and Dong Mei walked in.

"Sister, but I don't want to sleep. I want to stay here with my husband." Dong Shuzhen took her sister's hand and tilted her head to look at Zhu Xiuyuan on the bed.

"Silly boy, be obedient. How can a person stay awake all night? Go to bed quickly. Besides, among the methods for preventing and treating the plague mentioned by Xiu Yuan, there is an 'immunity' component, which can resist the infection of the plague. . But the 'resistance' must be strong enough. And adequate rest can keep the 'resistance' strong enough."

"But……"

"Zhen'er!" Dong Shuyu touched her head and said seriously: "Now is a critical period. We can't have any more problems. If Xiuyuan wakes up and finds that you are sick again, how anxious will he be? ! We can’t hold back Xiuyuan and Daddy now.”

After hearing this, Dong Shuzhen's heart moved, and she suddenly remembered that she had made up her mind before and would go out to help Zhu Xiuyuan tomorrow.

If she stays up all night and has no energy when the time comes, how can she help her husband?

"Okay, sister, let's go back to the room and rest!"

Dong Shuzhen glanced at Zhu Xiuyuan one last time, then opened the door with Qiu Wen and Xia Wu.

……

After the three masters and servants Dong Shuzhen left, only Zhu Xiuyuan, Dong Shuyu, Chun Xue and Dong Mei, who were asleep, were left in the room.

Dong Shuyu also ordered three chairs to be brought in and placed in front of Zhu Xiuyuan's bed.

She sat down on the chair closest to Zhu Xiuyuan, while Chunxue and Dongmei sat behind.

If Dong Shuzhen were still here, she would be surprised to see this battle.

Because the two sisters' "night vigil" methods are exactly the same!
However, Dong Shuyu was not as bored as Dong Shuzhen, and just stared at Zhu Xiuyuan blankly.

Dong Shuyu found some work for himself——

Grab a flower shed and start embroidering stitch by stitch!
Haruyue and Dongmei looked at each other, and they understood in their hearts that the eldest lady rarely did embroidery work.

Only when the eldest lady feels uneasy will she pick up the needle and thread.

In other words, embroidery is a way for Dong Shuyu to relieve stress.

The two maids also took out a flower shed and embroidered with the eldest lady.

The eldest ladies have begun to embroider. As maids, how can they sit around and idle!
Dong Shuyu is very serious.

She stared at the needlework in her hand and embroidered for a while, then raised her eyes to look at Zhu Xiuyuan.

She always remembered that after Zhu Xiuyuan woke up, she had to cook the medicine for Zhu Xiuyuan to drink.

In the second half of the night, Zhu Xiuyuan's room was extremely quiet, and you could even faintly hear the sound of gongs and drums from the "propaganda team" outside the house.

In addition, there are human voices, dog barking, etc. Although various voices are faint, they never stop.

……

"Ah...ha!"

I don't know what time it was, but suddenly a yawning sound came from the bedside.

At this time, strong sleepiness was attacking Dong Shuyu.

I think she usually goes to bed and gets up on time. It's very rare to stay up late like this. Although she slept for half the night, she still couldn't bear it.
