The daily life of a charming girl who made a fortune in ancient times

Chapter 37 Fainting
Lin Ruyu took Dafu and Ah Heng back to the temple, closed the temple gate tightly, and went back to the east courtyard to meet her mother.

Seeing that her daughter came back safely, Mrs. Fang finally let go of her hanging heart, and reproached with a straight face, "Last night, we agreed to go gather medicine together, why did you go secretly by yourself? Don't say that you meet bad people, just You got lost in the woods, what should you do?"

"Daughter is wrong, mother, don't be angry." Lin Ruyu stepped forward and gently grabbed her mother's sleeve, apologizing obediently.

In the eyes of her mother, Lin Ruyu is a 14-year-old girl who has never been out of the house and needs to be taken care of everywhere; but Lin Ruyu herself feels that she is already 17 years old and is an adult with the ability to protect herself.There are four people in the family, the mother is sick, Ah Heng is too young, and Brother Dafu doesn't know herbs, so last night, Lin Ruyu made up her mind to get up early and go out to collect herbs.

Why didn't Mrs. Fang understand her daughter's thoughts? Seeing that her shoes and trouser legs were covered with mud, she sighed and said, "Go back and wash it, mother..."

"Second Sister!" Shengzi hurriedly ran out from the west courtyard, "My brother has a fever!"

Hearing that Shen Ge's condition was getting worse, Lin Ruyu couldn't care less, and said quickly, "Mother, let's go and see Shen Ge?"

Mrs. Fang ordered, "Dafu and Aheng stay here, cook porridge by the fire, and then wash the herbs in the basket with cold water."

The five-year-old little Ah Heng replied sensiblely, "Okay."

When the mother and daughter entered the east wing of the west courtyard, they found that Shen Ge's face was burned red and he was unconscious.Fang raised his hand to test the temperature on Shen Ge's forehead, and said worriedly, "This won't work, we have to reduce his fever as soon as possible, and we'll go back and make medicine."

There is no wine or ice in the temple, and the fever cannot be reduced by wiping, and it takes time to boil the medicine. What should we do now?Lin Ruyu immediately thought of a way, "Yes, I have brought back some antipyretics for fever, mother, let's go back and make some medicines?"

After returning to the east courtyard, Lin Ruyu used the excuse of going back to her room to change her shoes, took out a sewing needle and walked out quickly, and said to her mother, "Mother, my daughter, go and ask if the wound on Chen Ge's arm is festering, if it is festering, It has to be boiled together with herbal medicine for reducing swelling.”

"Let Dafu..."

Before Fang's words were finished, his daughter ran out in a hurry.

The door of the main room in the west courtyard was still closed, Lin Ruyu ran into Shen Ge's room, and said in a low voice, "It's too late to take medicine now, I'll bloodlet Shen Ge to reduce his fever. Uncle San, Uncle Hong, please block the door so that no one can come in and see .”

Can bloodletting reduce fever?Uncle San was a little dumbfounded.

Seeing the needle in Lin Ruyu's hand, Chen Hong thought of Master Bao who was saved by her, and pulled Ma Qinglin to guard the gate.

After scalding the needles in hot water for disinfection, and scrubbing Shen Ge's red hands with a damp cloth, Lin Ruyu pierced the Shangyang, Sifeng, Shaoshang and Shaoze points on his hands without hesitation. Release a small amount of blood beads.

When she was in the orphanage, Lin Ruyu saw the headmaster use this method to reduce the fever of a child who fainted with high fever.Afterwards, she asked the dean for advice, and the dean explained that bloodletting can reduce blood stasis, release the heat evil in the blood vessels, and achieve the purpose of reducing fever.

Sure enough, not long after the bloodletting, Shen Ge woke up.Opening his eyes in a daze, he saw Lin Ruyu sitting next to him, but he couldn't make a sound when he opened his mouth.

Seeing that he woke up, Lin Ruyu showed a smile on her face, "You have a fever, don't be afraid, I picked herbs, and the fever will subside soon."

Shen Ge has never been ill since he was so old, so when he fell ill, he hated himself for being useless on the one hand, and on the other hand felt that his body was extremely uncomfortable. Now his whole body hurts, especially his head, as if it was about to explode.But seeing Lin Ruyu's smiling face and hearing her voice, Shen Ge's anxiety and pain miraculously disappeared.He believed in Lin Ruyu from the bottom of his heart, if Lin Ruyu said he would recover soon, then he would definitely recover.

Because he couldn't speak, Shen Ge had no choice but to grin and show Lin Ruyu.Unexpectedly, when he grinned, a few drops of blood appeared from his dry lips due to fever.

Seeing Lin Ruyu, she hurriedly said, "Brother, bring the warm water over, let your brother drink more water."

After Shen Ge settled down, Lin Ruyu walked up to Ma Sanshu and Chen Hong, and said in a low voice, "When I went out to collect herbs, I saw two young and strong men touching the mountain. They just lay in ambush in the woods."

Chen Hong asked in a low voice, "What do those two people look like, and what clothes are they wearing?"

"I can't see clearly from a distance, the tight pants they are wearing..."

After Lin Ruyu described the clothing and stature of the two of them, Chen Hong hit the heart of his right hand with his left fist, and said excitedly, "These two must have rushed to assassinate An Ziyuan!"

What he saw at the foot of Matou Mountain, the people who assassinated An Ziyuan were dressed like this.

It couldn't have been better.Lin Ruyu lowered her voice and said to Uncle Ma again, "An Ziyuan and the others may leave after breakfast. Uncle Fang will find a way to hold Uncle Fang and let him go last, so as not to be hurt."

Ma Sanshu nodded, "Ge Er's medicine, I will trouble you. Go out and pretend to be serious, so that An Ziyuan thinks Ge Er is hopeless."

"The knife wound on Shen Ge's arm is festering, and we need to use medicine. After An Ziyuan leaves, I have to trouble my third uncle to go to the sunken ship to retrieve Shen Ge's burden pressed by stones. There is one given to me by Master Bao. Come on." Good medicine for knife wounds." After Lin Ruyu finished speaking, she left the east wing and returned to the east courtyard.

Before he walked a few steps, he heard An Ziyuan calling, "Miss Lin."

Lin Ruyu stopped, pretending to wipe away her tears with a handkerchief, then turned around and saluted with choked sobs, "Grand An En."

Seeing Lin Ruyu weeping worriedly for Shen Ge, a storm was brewing in An Ziyuan's eyes, "worried" asked, "Miss, who is this?"

Lin Ruyu dabbed the corners of her eyes again with her handkerchief, lowered her head and pretended to cheer up to change the subject, "Engong hasn't eaten yet, right? My mother's porridge will be ready soon, and I'll bring it to you right away."

After finishing speaking, Lin Ruyu turned around and quickly ran out of the yard.

After her delicate back disappeared, An Ziyuan turned his eyes to the East Wing. After seeing Shen Ge lying unconscious on the bed, and the little boy named Shengzi guarding Shen Ge's bedside and wiping tears, there was an expression in his eyes. His murderous aura dissipated a little.

Just as An Ziyuan was looking at Chen Hong, Ma Qinglin hurried out of the room to salute with fists in his hands, and pleaded, "Master An is up? The wound on Chen Ge's body is red, swollen and festered. Do you have medicine for the wound?"

An Ziyuan naturally has the medicine, otherwise the wound on his leg would not heal so quickly.But to save Shen Ge with medicine?Don't think about it!

An Ziyuan shook his head guiltily, "I escaped from the flood in a hurry, and all my luggage was left on the boat. Brother Shen...?"

Third Uncle Ma sighed, "The child burned all night, and he was completely burnt... eh..."

Fang Jiayin was anxious when he heard that Shen Ge was dying, but there was nothing he could do.

Not long after, Dafu brought corn porridge and side dishes to the west courtyard, and then brought a bowl of dark medicinal soup.

The child was brought back to the East Wing to feed Shen Ge, and then he cried at the top of his voice, "Third Uncle, come quickly, the medicine can't go in."

Uncle Ma hurried back to the wing, and Fang Jiayin quickly followed in.The corner of An Ziyuan's mouth twitched invisibly, and he turned and went back to the room.

An Fengchun set up the food and said in a low voice, "Master, we have to go, I'm afraid something will change."

An Ziyuan nodded, "Depart immediately after dinner."
