The mother-in-law stopped moving and lowered her head without saying a word.
Wei Zhuang opened his mouth, but he had not yet recovered from the shock.
After a long time, Wei Zhuang asked in a low voice.
"Mother, did you just..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw the woman raising her head.
The corners of her mouth were curved downward, and her eyes were red.
Wei Zhuang was stunned, "Are you...crying?"
The mother-in-law stared at him, her shoulders twitching.
? ?
What the hell, I didn’t force you to do this, it wasn’t you who sneezed and then...
Wei Zhuang was a little confused by her stare, "This matter has nothing to do with me."
The mother-in-law bit her lip, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes.
"Are you happy to see me making a fool of myself?"
"You can laugh if you want. Anyway, to you, the emperor, my existence itself is insignificant."
Wei Zhuang couldn't tell whether it was rain or tears on her face.
For some reason, his heart moved.
There was a familiar yet strange feeling at a certain moment just now.
Looking at the mother-in-law with a face full of despair, Wei Zhuang felt a trace of unbearability in his heart.
After thinking about this, he sighed silently.
Then he put on a puzzled expression and said, "Damn bitch, what weird words did you say? What made a fool of yourself?"
The mother-in-law looked at Wei Zhuang who looked confused and was stunned.
Wei Zhuang continued to act stupid and said, "Are you dumbfounded by the rain? Why did you make me laugh for no reason?"
The mother-in-law gritted her teeth: "Hunjun, you don't have to pity me. Even if you pretend to be stupid now, I will still kill you when you get out."
Wei Zhuang stared at her, his face full of schadenfreude.
"Damn it, did you secretly do something scandalous just now?"
"Hahaha, tell me now, I'm going to laugh at you!"
Hearing this, the mother-in-law frowned and stared at Wei Zhuang.
Wei Zhuang's expression management is impeccable.
The mother-in-law looked away and blushed a little.
"What scandal did you do?" Wei Zhuang asked her.
The mother-in-law returned to her original "arrogant" expression and shouted angrily.
"Hunjun, shut up, what I do has nothing to do with you!"
"Damn old lady, why are you so crazy all of a sudden?"
Another burst of curses came from the well.
…
I don’t know how long it took, but the rain stopped.
Inside the well, Wei Zhuang's head was leaning against the well wall, and his wife was leaning on Wei Zhuang's shoulder.
The two fell asleep.
A drop of water hit Wei Zhuang's eyes. He squeezed his eyes and slowly woke up.
The sky was still overcast at this time.
His shoulders were numb.
"Hey, wake up." Wei Zhuang called her with a shrug.
The mother-in-law's eyebrows moved, but she didn't get up.
"Get up, my shoulders are stiff."
"Don't mess with me."
"Don't even think about taking advantage of me. I have a family."
After a few more urgings, the mother-in-law still didn't respond, but her breathing became heavier.
Wei Zhuang realized something was wrong.
He wanted to touch his wife's forehead, but when he raised his arm, he remembered that he couldn't use his hands.
After hesitating for a moment, Wei Zhuang put his forehead against it.
The mother-in-law's head is very hot.
Sure enough, he had a fever.
Wei Zhuang had a headache. He didn't want this woman to die here.
The sight of having a corpse accompany him in a dry well on a rainy day is terrifying to think about.
"Please, don't kill me..."
The mother-in-law, who was still in a coma, suddenly showed fear on her face and made a trembling voice.
? ?
Is this woman talking in her sleep?
Please, don't kill me...
I didn't expect this damn bitch to be so weak.
"I'm afraid of being killed by others, but I still want to be a killer. It's really self-inflicted."
Wei Zhuang commented mercilessly.
Complaints are complaints, Wei Zhuang still has to find a way to make this woman sober up.
In the current situation of the two of them, the conventional method of taking medicine and rest is not feasible.
The first thing Wei Zhuang thought of was physical cooling.
For example, wipe your forehead, armpits, hands and feet with a wet towel to take away body surface heat.
He didn't have a towel, so he had to use cloth from his clothes instead.
"This damn bitch is wearing a fancy outfit, and the fabric can't be torn off."
"Are you going to tear off my own clothes and give them to her?"
Wei Zhuang frowned and thought again and again, and finally sighed, "Unlucky bitch, I really owe you!"
After saying that, Wei Zhuang grabbed the hem of his clothes and pulled hard.
There was a sting.
"It's broken. Why did you tear off your underwear?"
Wei Zhuang looked down at his bare chest, where an emerald green jade pendant hung.
He stuffed the jade pendant into his clothes, shook his head irritably, folded the fabric into pieces, threw it upwards and bit it with his teeth.
Then he turned around and put the wet cloth on his shoulders so that the mother-in-law's forehead could touch it.
About twenty minutes later, Wei Zhuang tested the temperature with his forehead again.
The mother-in-law's forehead was still hot.
"It seems we have to find another way."
Wei Zhuang thought about it and thought of several fever-reducing acupuncture points taught by Imperial Physician Chen.
Looking down at the bumpy body in front of him, Wei Zhuang swallowed.
He put his arm around the mother-in-law's waist and moved his hands up her spine, finally stopping on an acupuncture point at the lower end of her neck.
My fingers just hit the Dazhui point, and rubbing it will help reduce fever.
Then he exerted slight pressure on his fingers.
"Um……"
The mother-in-law let out a soft hum.
Wei Zhuang glanced at her guiltily and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she didn't wake up.
Feeling the vague softness on his chest, Wei Zhuang straightened his expression.
"I'm saving people, I have no other ideas at all."
"That's right, not at all!"
…
After a while.
The mother-in-law felt a sense of comfort coming from behind.
She slowly opened her eyes, and what came into view was Wei Zhuang's exposed chest.
"Hunjun, what are you doing!"
Wei Zhuang let go of his hand around her waist and said calmly, "You're awake."
The mother-in-law's eyes were full of horror, "What did you do to me!"
"Before I answer your question, please keep some distance from me in some part of your body." Wei Zhuang looked upright, "After all, I am a man with a family."
As he spoke, he leaned back.
The mother-in-law was about to get angry when she suddenly felt dizzy, her head sank and she leaned on Wei Zhuang's shoulder again.
She gritted her teeth and said bitterly: "You are a villain who takes advantage of others' danger!"
Wei Zhuang smiled: "Please understand, you are leaning on me now, it seems you are taking advantage of others' danger."
"Don't make any excuses. Why did you put your hand on my back when I was asleep just now?"
"If I don't press your acupuncture points, can you wake up now?"
"Hmph, you wish you could kill me, but would you be kind enough to save me?"
"Don't think too much, I just don't want to stay in the well with a corpse."
"Hunjun, you..."
The mother-in-law wanted to say something else, but she felt her feet go weak and she lay weakly on Wei Zhuang's body.
Wei Zhuang was shocked by her sudden "hug".
"Mother, I'm glad you know how to be grateful, but there's no need to do it in this way."
"you you……"
The mother-in-law felt weak all over and her voice was weak.
Wei Zhuang frowned and put his ear to her to hear what she had to say.
"go away!"
