Chapter 2
"Miss is awake?" Qi Huan was still in a daze, but the little girl's eyes were red, and she rushed over and pulled the quilt to cover her body.

Qi Huan's mind was still a little empty, and he blurted out without thinking: "You are..."

What the hell is this?
"My maidservant is Yunxi, is it possible that Miss has a fever? But it's fine if you wake up, I couldn't wake you up last night, but I frightened my maidservant." She only focused on covering her with the quilt: "Cover it up soon, you are still hot here, you can't catch a cold anymore."

After saying that, she turned around and greeted the man who came in with her.

The man was carrying a small wooden box, tall and thin, wearing a half-worn blue-gray gown, with a beard, at first glance he looked about forty years old.

Qi Huan noticed that his clothes and shoes were covered with dust and mud, which seemed to be dusty.

Hearing this, he stepped forward to make a bow.

The situation in front of him was unclear, and for the sake of caution, Qi Huan didn't speak, but just stared at him blankly.

Seeing this, Yunxi hurriedly explained: "Miss, this is Doctor Hu."

"Doctor?" Qi Huan couldn't turn his head around anymore, and murmured.

"Mama Zheng went to the city to invite a doctor and hasn't come back yet. This gentleman is going to Beijing to look for relatives. On the way, he was stolen and entangled. He passed by our village to ask for water. He heard that there was a sick person at home, and he said he was willing to help. Slaves Thinking that Madam Zheng didn't come back anyway, it would be better if you have someone to help you take a look at your illness, so I invited him in." Yun Xi was obviously straightforward, and explained it like a bean.

After finishing speaking, he went to the drawer of the dressing table next to him and took a square thin silk handkerchief, and then pulled Qi Huan's wrist to cover the handkerchief, and then moved out of the way, and said gratefully to Dr. Hu, " Doctor, thank you for your hard work, please give my young lady a consultation."

"Okay." Dr. Hu stroked his beard, paced forward, first said "offended" in a polite and thoughtful manner, and then sat on the bamboo chair brought by Yunxi, and checked Qi Huan's pulse with his fingers through the silk handkerchief.

Qi Huan is still not sure if he is dreaming at the moment, he always feels a little dazed.

Next to her, Yun Xi stared nervously at Doctor Hu's hand on her wrist.

Qi Huan looked up and saw her face, but saw that the right side of the little girl's forehead was bruised, and it seemed to be swollen faintly, so he frowned: "Your forehead..."

Is she dreaming?Is that a dream in a dream?She vaguely remembered that when she woke up last time, a man broke in, and there was an argument outside the door... It was a strange encounter.

Hearing her question, Yunxi subconsciously raised her hand to touch the wound on her forehead, but smiled on her childish face: "I'm fine, just knocked."

Qi Huan was still a little confused about the situation, so he didn't ask any more questions because he was worried.

It was Dr. Hu who took the time to look back at Yunxi: "It's just an ordinary bruise. I have prepared medicinal wine here. I'll bring you some later. Wipe it and rub it. It will be fine in two days."

Yun Xi quickly thanked him and said no.

Dr. Hu didn't say much, he turned his eyes away and continued to take Qi Huan's pulse. After a while, he said "abruptly", and stretched out his hand to test the temperature of her forehead.

Yun Xi waited anxiously, and couldn't help asking in a low voice, "Doctor, what happened to my young lady?"

Dr. Hu said: "Miss, this is a high fever caused by the wind and cold entering the body. Looking at it like this, you must have sweated last night, right? The fever is not particularly serious now."

"Uh..." Qi Huan couldn't tell why.

She had an impression of what happened last night, but she felt that it was extremely unreal. She vaguely felt that she was sweating a little because she was frightened and tossed a lot at that time, and she was almost collapsed, but after all, she herself was not yet I was sure if there was such a thing, and I was afraid that if I said the wrong thing, it would arouse suspicion, so I simply kept silent.

"The past two days have been cold in spring, and there are frequent rains and snows. The lady is indeed suffering from a cold, but it has been burning for more than two days, because the lady has always been weak and is often easy to catch the cold. The fever-reducing medicine commonly used at home Prescriptions and herbal medicines are also prepared, and in the past, the fever can be reduced after drinking two doses of medicine, but this time it has been delayed." Fortunately, Yun Xi didn't think too much about it, and he was still talking about it. She peeked at Qi Huan with worried eyes, "From yesterday afternoon, people have been unconscious from fever. Doctor, this fever can be big or small, you must take a closer look, the fever must be cured. We will feel at ease once we retreat completely.”

"Has it been burning for two days and two nights?" Dr. Hu pondered, stretched out his hand to feel Qi Huan's wrist pulse again, and then asked Yunxi: "Can you take the prescription and the leftover medicine dregs from the decoction that Miss took before?" Come to see me?"

Qi Huan still has this kind of common sense. Chinese medicine has its own rules when seeing a doctor, and it is not easy to ask for prescriptions prescribed by other doctors.

Now check the dregs...

What is this doubting?

Her eyes flickered here, but Yun Xi didn't understand the situation yet, she just asked innocently: "What are you doing?"

"Oh, I'm just looking to find out what's in the medicine that Miss took before, so I can prescribe it, so as not to use the wrong medicine and collide with each other." Dr. Hu stroked his beard with a somewhat ambiguous tone.

"This..." Yunxi hesitated.

After all, she is young, and she is usually only responsible for serving the young lady's food and daily life. Now that Zheng's mother is away, she can't find the backbone.

Qi Huan then gave her a wink: "Go and get it."

After Yunxi was dismissed, her mind was still in a mess, she always felt tired, and didn't want to talk much, so she leaned on the soft pillow and closed her eyes to rest, and by the way, she was still thinking hard about what the situation was.

Not long after Yunxi left, he ran back with a large bag of medicine residues wrapped in a handkerchief: "The medicine residues after cooking by the cook are poured in one place, and there are three days' worth of medicine residues. Grabbed two at random."

Then I went to find a prescription in the drawer and came out.

Dr. Hu read the prescription first, then rolled up his sleeves and sat down at the round table next to him to concentrate on examining the medicinal residues.

There was a moment of silence in the house.

Seeing that Qi Huan's lips were dry and cracked, Yun Xi couldn't help feeling distressed: "Miss, are you thirsty?"

She ran to the table to pour water, but the kettle on the table had been left all night, and the water in it was already cold, so she carried it and went outside, "The water is cold, and the servants are going to change it."

As soon as the door was opened, two fat and thin women in aprons came in with four girls in the same clothes.

On a cold day, the fat man rolled up his sleeves halfway, and yelled loudly: "Miss, what do you mean? What kind of medicine dregs are you going to test? This medicine was made by slaves. Can you not trust slaves?" ?”

Perhaps her loud voice was too scary, Yun Xi instinctively became nervous.

But my young lady is ill, so she can't be hit any more. The next moment, she rushed out the door to block it: "Who allowed you to enter this yard? If you have anything to say, I'll wait for Mama Zheng to come back and talk about it. Don't quarrel." Let the lady rest!"

After all, she is young, and she probably doesn't do such things often. If you listen carefully, her voice clearly reveals a lack of confidence.

"We just want justice." The fat cook was very aggressive, and insisted on breaking in: "Miss! Miss!"

This eldest lady is so weak, she insists on living in this village, if she really wants to die of illness here, which one of them will take the blame?Everything has to be wiped clean.

The two sides pushed each other at the door, seeing Yun Xi couldn't stop them...

Qi Huan had a fever and was top-heavy, coupled with not being able to figure out the situation, he was even more annoyed, his temper came up, he grabbed a teacup on the small bedside table and threw it out: "Why are you so noisy? I have a terrible headache!"

 Open more, I, Miss Qi, seem to have a bad temper╭(╯^╰)╮
