Foster son and husband

Chapter 49 Nightmare
Ruibao took what Meiniang wanted, and Meiniang touched Xu Junying's forehead, and took the opportunity to shake his hand. The palm was still warm, but the fingertips were cold. This strange guy was obviously hot and cold. , he insisted not to add quilts, what did he want to do?Be an ascetic monk or be afraid that people will say that he is weak?
The more Xu Junying avoids herself, the more she wants to touch him, what's the matter?Afraid that sister will eat you?My sister is not that tough, I will use you as a test product for fun.I remember seeing a few folk remedies in my previous life. Before the imperial doctor I invited, I tried it out first. If it works, I can promote it in the future. Unfortunately, I can cure this disease by myself.

Tucking up the quilt for Xu Junying, Mei Niang got up and walked to the charcoal fire, and said to Cuixi:
"Call Mama Wang over there, take a catty or two of old ginger, and watch to boil a big pot of water for later use."

He also told Ruizhu: "Bring a thick quilt to add to Lord Hou, he won't object."

Rui Zhu followed suit, but Xu Junying didn't say anything, or maybe she didn't notice, she leaned on the pillow with her eyes closed, and was exhausted after so many trips to the inner room.

Mei Niang put a large copper spoon on the charcoal fire, picked up the vinegar bottle and poured half a spoonful, added some water, waited for the vinegar water to boil, then added some salt, stirred it a few times with a silver spoon, and asked Cuixi to take it from the table. Just clean the teacup, pour boiling vinegar and salt water into the teacup, let it dry, and call Ruibao:

"Try it, see if it's hot?"

Ruibao took the cup without hesitation and drank it, but Mei Niang stopped her: "One sip is enough, don't drink it up."

Ruibao smiled shyly and took a sip: "Grandma Hui: it's not hot anymore."

Mei Niang nodded, and walked to Xu Junying's bed with a cup: "Master Hou, are you asleep? Wake up and drink some soup!"

Xu Junying sat up all of a sudden, but wanted to go to the inner room: "I don't drink water—let me go!"

Mei Niang refused: "Drink this and go."

Impatiently, Xu Junying looked at the half cup of tea in her hand, grabbed it and drank it dry, frowning: "What is this? It's salty, sour, and has a strange smell!"

"It's boiling water!" Meiniang laughed and moved away, and shouted loudly: "Master Hou wants to enter the inner room, let Bai Zhan come in!"

Xu Junying paused, didn't say anything at all, and went to the inner room, but closed the door, Bai Zhan couldn't get in.

Xu Junying came out of the inner room, and went down again, about half an hour later, she saw Baoju leading a little old man with a gray beard and a red robe.

For half an hour, Xu Junying didn't enter the inner room again, she fell asleep in a daze, she didn't move and didn't make a sound, Mei Niang told him not to, but she still breathed when she checked him, maybe he was burnt out .

Doctor Hu checked the pulse and confirmed that he had caught a cold and had a bad stomach. Meiniang smiled triumphantly: You guessed it right?It's a pity that I didn't study medicine in my previous life, so I should be considered talented.

Thanks to Imperial Physician Hu, Meiniang took silver to pay the consultation fee, Mama Wang handed over a purse, Meiniang took it, and put it in the hands of Imperial Physician Hu, Imperial Physician Hu put it in his sleeve with a smile, Niang saluted and was sent back by Baoju.

Mei Niang asked Bai Zhan to quickly take the prescription to prepare the medicine. Bai Zhan was just about to run out when Xu Junying called softly from the tent:
"Wait!"

what happened again?Mei Niang looked at Ruibao, Ruibao walked to the bed, leaned over and asked, "What's your order, Master Hou?"

Xu Junying said: "There's no need to go get the medicine, call the grandma over!"

Mei Niang walked over, unceremoniously opened the curtain and sat on the side of the bed: "What do you want to say?"

Xu Junying said: "You don't need to take any other medicine, do you still have the bottle of Liuhe pill that Lingxuzi gave you?"

A flash of inspiration flashed in Mei Niang's mind: "I ate that one, and there is only one green and one red left."

"In a bottle of Liuhe pills, there are ten green ones, one red one, and the red one, which can cure all diseases..."

"Why didn't you say it when you gave it to me? Didn't you say it just now?"

Xu Junying closed her eyes and did not move: "I forgot!"

Mei Niang raised her eyebrows and looked at him for a long while, then said softly: "Xu Junying, I really admire you!"

Is it too proud or something?Do you think that you are strong and iron, and that all evils cannot invade?Isn't it the same illness, with a nonchalant look, and still wants to hide it, this disease is serious or minor, and it will take three or four days to carry it, okay?Among other things, just pulling you for a day and a night will make you deform!
Knowing that there is a good medicine, I didn't ask her to use it earlier, did I really forget?
Tell Cuixi to go back to the room to get the medicine, so that Bai Zhan doesn't have to go out to pick up the medicine, and give money to Imperial Physician Hu for nothing, but at his age, it's enough to make a trip in a snowy day, blame Xu Junying!
Mama Wang's ginger soup had been boiling for a long time, Mei Niang asked Bai Zhan to scoop it out from two large wooden buckets, brought them into the inner room, and ordered:

"Bring someone in to help Lord Hou, soak in ginger soup, rub his chest, back, arms and legs vigorously for him, it is best to wash his hair, dry it with a towel immediately after washing, and then return it warmly Cover it on the bed, he will be fine tomorrow morning, at least the headache will not hurt!"

Ms. Wang nodded her head: "Yes, this method works! It will be fine if you wash away the evil spirits on your body!"

Bai Zhan immediately scooped up ginger water and carried it into the inner room, Cuixi took the medicine, Meiniang poured it into her hand with the small porcelain bottle, took the red one, and gave it to Xu Junying, Ruizhu took it Tea comes, Mei Niang said:
"Remember in the future, take pills, use plain water, don't use tea, tea or medicine with it!"

Ruizhu hurriedly ran to change the warm water again, Xu Junying took a sip, and Bai Zhan came to invite:

"Master, the hot water is ready, let's take a bath!"

Xu Junying lazily said: "Stop soaking, let's wash it tomorrow morning!"

Mei Niang said: "I need to take a bath, Doctor Hu said just now, it's best to take a hot bath!"

He couldn't help but lifted the quilt: "Come in a hundred battles, help me!"

Xu Junying had no choice but to get out of bed and put on her shoes: "I'll go by myself! Minor ailments are nothing, don't make a mess here!"

Mei Niang watched Bai Zhan follow him into the inner room, and ordered Rui Bao to find him clean clothes in exchange for him. Rui Zhu brought another set of clean bedding and sheets, and the maids shook them out and roasted them on the brazier, and put the bed on the bed. After replacing everything, he yawned easily: Mrs. Hou's task is completed, go back to take a shower and sleep well!

When Xu Junying came out from the inner room, she was more than half healed, full of energy, her head was light, her stomach was no longer stretched, and the pain was not so bad, only occasionally rolling a few times.

He wanted to take a bath by himself and asked Bai Zhan to go out. Bai Zhan said: "Grandma ordered me to soak in ginger water, and taught us to rub here and here for him, and wash my hair. It's cold, so hurry up and wash it, it's so hot. Go to bed and cover it with heat, and when you get up in the morning, everything will be fine!"

Looking around the bedroom, it was still the same as it was before Mei Niang came in, a lamp was on, the brazier had been removed, but there was still the warm smell in the air when she was there, went to bed and lifted the cotton cover, the cover and cushions were all replaced, It was soft and comfortable to lie on, warm and noisy, just like the feeling after Ruizhu Ruibao re-dried the quilt according to her instructions a few days ago.

He didn't like this feeling, he was not used to the comfortable environment.

What is it to be by my father's side, to march and fight, to be tempered, to endure hardship and cold?His father asked him to develop a strong willpower and a super ability to kill enemies. His father warned him that a soldier must look like a soldier, brave, witty, tenacious, and decisive. Vigilance is a woman and a comfortable environment.

He is a child of an aristocratic family, and he grew up in the beautiful and gentle township, how could he not know the good things there?Ten years of military career, he was used to watching life and death, and the bones on the battlefield made him understand that if you don't advance, you will retreat, and if you are not strong, you will perish. Only being strong can save your life. Remind yourself not to be slack, not to be too hedonistic.

He is used to sleeping on a hard bed, covered with a thin quilt, and practicing martial arts. Even after returning to the capital and staying away from the battlefield, he still hasn't changed.

And now lying on this soft and comfortable bed, he doesn't want to move anymore, forget it, he has been tossing him all night, and he is gone, can he call him back and change again?
Qin Meiniang, what did you give him to drink?She was able to touch his body again and again like that, and arrange affairs in his room methodically and confidently!
Xu Junying closed her eyes, took the hand that Mei Niang held, touched her forehead, thought about what she said and did, and sighed slightly: Why is this so?Such a timid little wife, lying side by side on the bed, made him tremble when he touched her. He felt sorry for her, and didn't dare to hug her at all. He knew what happened to that yuan handkerchief. She accidentally soiled it during menstruation. It's up to him to make the decision, let the mother-in-law take him away if he makes a mistake, because he is about to go to the battlefield, if there is no Yuan handkerchief, the people in the Houfu will not recognize her identity.

But such a timid and weak woman dared to betray him!In less than ten days since he left, she had an affair with Lao Qi, and even Heng'er could be recorded in his name. This is the most heartbreaking and unforgivable thing for him!
If time could be turned back, would he still marry her?
Perhaps, he shouldn't let her be alone at home... He should, he can do something for her, at least not let her be neglected and despised, because he trusts his family members too much, thinking that they can take good care of his newly married wife !

Xu Junying realized that his mind was full of Mei Niang, her image, her smile, her voice... He rubbed his temples, pulled up the quilt fiercely, and covered his head.

Before and after the feigned death, Qin Meiniang is like two different people. The former is gentle and delicate, peerlessly beautiful, while the latter is still bright and charming, but her temperament has changed a lot. She is bold and lively, loves to talk and laugh, and there seems to be another pair of eyes hidden behind her bright eyes. , but no matter what, she is no longer his wife, she...belongs to Lao Qi!

Before he knew it, Xu Junying fell asleep, and this time he slept very deeply. In his dream, he still saw Mei Niang, who was dressed brightly, smiled like a flower, and ran up with some arrogant arrogance, pushing away the girl beside him. Zhuang Yulan grabbed his arm and pulled him forward. He still remembered the line of defense between him and her, and refused to take a step, but he didn't expect that she was so strong that she dragged him away. He saw Looking at her smiling face, he couldn't help but relax, took her hand naturally, and walked to a place where hundreds of flowers were in full bloom. He hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull it, but saw Xu Junjie, the seventh son, rising up from the ground, catching Meiniang with a smile, and both of them fell down, his hand was still tightly holding on to Meiniang, shouting loudly: "Meiniang, Meiniang!"

Suddenly someone shouted repeatedly: "Master! Master! What orders does Master have?"

He jumped up from the bed, covered in sweat, his clothes were soaked, the sky outside the door was twilight, Baoju was standing on the porch, still shouting:

"Father..."

Xu Junying calmed down and said, "I got up, but is there still boiling water in the porch? Take two buckets and come in to take a bath!"

"Yes! Little one, call Rui Zhu Rui Bao!"

"I don't need them, I can do it myself!"
