After returning to the thatched house, Zheng Xiong lay on the bed. A strong man held a cattail leaf fan and gently fanned Zheng Xiong with the breeze.
The manual hand-operated fan made Zheng Xiong fall asleep quickly. During this period, several people standing guard outside the door also changed shifts and took turns fanning the fan, allowing Zheng Xiong to sleep soundly that night.
In the early morning, before dawn, Zheng Xiong was woken up by a chill. The strong man's eyes were twitching and he was fanning carelessly.
Seeing Zheng Xiong waking up, the strong man woke up quickly and waited for Zheng Xiong's instructions.
Zheng Xiong, who was lying in his clothes, couldn't sleep either. He waved his hands and then fell into a daze quietly.
When the sky got dim, Zheng Xiong got up directly, followed by the clerk and the strong man sleeping on the bed.
Without Zheng Xiong's treatment, the two of them didn't sleep very well anyway, but they were in much better condition than those who stayed vigil.
When the strong man outside the house saw Zheng Xiong getting up, he cheered up and saluted. When Zheng Xiong saw several strong men keeping watch like this, he waved his hand and said.
"Thank you. You guys go in and have a rest. I'll call you when I leave."
"Thank you, sir."
After saying that, he quickly got up and went into the house to sleep. After a while, he heard snoring.
The movements of Zheng Xiong and others also woke up Wei Hong and her siblings. Wei Hong yawned and rolled over to get up.
Several younger brothers continued to sleep and take a nap.
In the hospital, Zheng Xiong was doing his second set of radio gymnastics, and the times were calling.
One two three four, two two three four, three two three four~~stretching exercise.
Wei Hong, who opened the door, watched Zheng Xiong doing radio gymnastics, and stood aside to watch without realizing it.
After Zheng Xiong finished cooking, he walked to the stove and smoke rose.
The smoke rises from the kitchen, filled with the smoke of human beings.
First, they boiled a pot of hot water for Zheng Xiong to wash up, and then woke up a few little ones to get them up officially.
After a group of people washed up, they were all eagerly waiting for Wei Hong to cook rice.
After digging around in the rice vat for a long time, I finally got out a bowl of millet, which was the last remaining grain. Now the rice vat was empty, and the mice had to run away when they saw it.
Rinse it in water, put it in a pot of boiling water, and Wei Hong makes porridge.
Waves of fragrance came from time to time, sending waves of feedback from Zheng Xiong's stomach.
When the porridge was cooked, Zheng Xiong asked the clerk to wake up the sleeping people and have breakfast together.
With just a little pickle, Zheng Xiong ate it with gusto, mainly because he was hungry and it tasted delicious.
After eating and drinking, Zheng Xiong asked the clerk to take out the baggage, took out fifty coins and gave it to Wei Hong.
"Here are fifty coins, take it."
Wei Hong took the money and didn't know what to say, so she could only reply.
"Why is there so much more? Isn't it forty coins?"
"Think of it as my reward for you."
"Thank you, sir."
Looking at Zheng Xiong's indifferent attitude, Wei Hong tearfully took the fifty coins.
"I've been harassing you for so long. I'll take my leave now. You stay at home. When the doctor arrives, I'll ask him to come over and take a look at you."
"There's no need to trouble the young master. I have to help with a female job today. I'm afraid I won't have time and I'll live up to the good intentions of the young master."
"You can go as long as you want. You'll always be there at night!"
"Um, yes."
"Then it's over, let's say goodbye."
After saying that, Zheng Xiong left here without looking back.
Wei Hong held the money in her hand and watched Zheng Xiong leave. It wasn't until Zheng Xiong and others walked some distance away that she came back to her senses and continued busy with the affairs of the stove.
After returning to Yingxian County, we went to have breakfast again, and then walked back to the inn where we stayed.
"You guys must not have slept well yet. Go and have a good sleep. You don't need to follow me."
"Thank you, sir."
After sending away the few people who kept vigil with yawns, Zheng Xiong turned his attention to the clerk.
"Please go back to Yanmen Pass and tell Medical Officer Wu to call some doctors over."
"Your Excellency, you still remember what you said yesterday about finding some doctors to look at Miss Wei."
"Yeah, but don't say anything you shouldn't."
"Understood, I will go back and inform you now."
The clerk left in a hurry, Zheng Xiong walked back to the room and continued to catch up on his sleep.
The inn is really incomparable to that thatched house. It's very considerate, clean, refreshing and classy.
At three o'clock in the morning, Zheng Xiong stretched himself out of bed, picked up the sleeping bodyguard and ate lunch.
Four dishes and one soup, the portions were quite generous and I was barely full.
Then we continued eating, drinking and having fun in Yingxian County, and returned to the inn in the evening.
The petty officials had already returned and brought several doctors who were excellent at treating injuries and illnesses to Yingxian County, including external injuries, poisonous injuries, and internal injuries.
When he saw Zheng Xiong, he hurriedly saluted to Zheng Xiong.
"Withdraw."
"I'm here. I asked you to come and treat one person. Nothing else."
"As commanded."
"Who among you knows the way? Take them there."
I can't count on the small officials today, but a few strong men can help me make up the number.
"Sir, let me go. I have some impression of the location over there."
"Okay, hard work."
Patting the shoulder of the strong man who volunteered, Zheng Xiong walked out of the inn, preparing to go out for another dinner. If he didn't eat, he would be full, and he would be hungry at night.
Zheng Xiong, who had not yet left the inn, just walked out when he saw a familiar figure in the distance. Zheng Xiong called out to him.
"Hey, hey, Wei Hong, Wei Hong."
The sudden name made the figure in the distance stop, look at Zheng Xiong, confirm his eyes, and come to Zheng Xiong.
"Sir, we meet again."
"Yes, it's fate. Who knew I would see you when I go out? Don't leave. The doctors are here. Ask them to take a look at you."
Wei Hong cursed in her heart, "If you meddle in other people's business, you must be sick!"
I was cursing and complaining in my heart, but I couldn't refuse Zheng Xiong's face.
"Young Master is interested. I have to go back as soon as possible. If the city gate is closed, I won't be able to go back."
"What are you afraid of when the city gate is closed? At worst, I'll give you a room here. What's the rush?"
"There are several younger brothers at home who are waiting for dinner."
"It won't be a problem if they get hungry. There should be some dried fish, so they can get through it."
"It's not that I'm afraid of this. The main thing is that I haven't been able to get home for a long time, so I'm afraid it will worry my brothers."
"It's easy to handle. I'll send someone to tell them back."
"Uh, okay."
I searched for all kinds of reasons, but Zheng Xiong couldn't find anything, so he had no choice but to cry without tears.
"Thank you, sir."
The group returned to the inn, and several doctors sat in the room opened by Zheng Xiong, accompanied by Zheng Xiong.
The doctor sat down and Wei Hong sat on the other side, waiting for the doctor to ask questions.
"Girl, please lift up the clothes on your arms and put your arms on the mat. I will check your pulse."
Although Wei Hong was dressed shabbily, with Zheng Xiong sitting by her side, even if she was curious, she was cautious, fearing to lose Zheng Xiong's face.
"Um."
After saying that, Wei Hong put her arm on the mat, and the doctor pinched his fingers and checked his pulse, frowning from time to time.
"There are pulses in the three parts of Cun Guan Chi. The pulse is neither floating nor sinking, gentle and strong. When the Chi pulse sinks, it should be strong. According to the pulse condition, the girl is in good health and has no other problems."
"Girl, can you tell me more about the cause of this disease?"
