Maid's Survival Manual

Chapter 194 Guilt
After all, Si Long failed to make it. The fourth grandma, Min, did not exaggerate. She has been with Brother Jun for three or four days. Brother Jun does not eat or drink water. , but barely holding on here.Fourth master is a big man, he can't even hold a child, how can he take care of such an older child?
Seeing that although Si Long was a girl who hadn't left the court, she took good care of Brother Jun, so he refused to let her go.The fourth master Chen Yunkang said flatly: "When brother Jun is well, I will personally ask the sixth younger siblings to plead guilty, beat and scold as she pleases and punish as she pleases, but I will ask Miss Silong to stay here. Although there is no gold mountain, silver mountain, brocade clothes Good food is provided for you, but there is always some simple food, so please stay here for a few days, and you have to wait until brother Jun's fever subsides before leaving."

Bai E went back to report to Man Man, but Man Man just smiled and sent Bai E back, "It's not that Si Long has to serve me by my side. Since Brother Jun is lacking in care, let Si Long stay."

Si Long also settled down at Chen Yunkang's house with peace of mind, taking over the duty of taking care of brother Jun from the fourth grandmother, Min, cleaning up the shochu for brother Jun several times a day, and constantly feeding him distilled water with salt and sugar added. rice soup.

Brother Jun's situation has improved significantly.The lips are still dry, but the color has become a little pink, and the eyes are not so deep-set. I no longer vomit when I drink water, and I can barely drink some porridge when I eat.

Seeing that brother Jun was getting better, the fourth grandma relaxed and lay down. Her whole body was sore, her limbs felt weak, her chest was tight and short of breath, and she felt dizzy and nauseous.

Almost all the family circled around these two patients.

Si Long didn't dare to sleep all night, so he kept his eyes open and stood beside Brother Jun, touching his forehead from time to time.Since she drank the thin rice soup prepared by Grandma Liu, she also prepared it twice. Brother Jun's fever subsided a little after drinking it, but Grandma Six said that it would be really good if the fever did not disappear at night. Well, that's why Si Long didn't dare to take it lightly.

Brother Jun fell asleep peacefully, woke up once in the night, saw that it was Si Long, and smiled at her.Si Long urinated for him once, and seeing that the color had changed from yellow to white, he let out a sigh of relief and said, "Brother Jun is almost healed."

Brother Jun gained strength and energy, so he babbled and talked with Si Long, staring at his big round and energetic eyes, which was very pleasing.

When he fell asleep again, Si Long looked at the hourglass, and the hour had passed, and Brother Jun hadn't burned again. She remembered Manman's words, and knew that Brother Jun was basically in no serious danger.

Chen Yunzheng hurriedly returned at noon the next day, bringing a middle-aged doctor with him.As soon as he entered the door, he jumped off the horse without even shaking off the rein, and asked the fourth master who came out to welcome him, "How is Brother Jun?"

Compared with yesterday, Fourth Master is in much better spirits. His hair has been combed, his face has been washed, and his beard has been shaved, showing a handsome face somewhat similar to Chen Yunzheng. He smiled and said, "Many gone."

Chen Yunzheng was overjoyed, and asked anxiously, "Really?"

Chen Yunkang came over, took Chen Yunzheng's arm, and nodded heavily: "Yes, the fever went away yesterday. Miss Si Long kept watch all night, saying that brother Jun didn't have any more fever at night. I ate a bowl of rice porridge this morning. , After playing around for a long time, now I'm biting my finger and I'm hungry again."

Chen Yunzheng raised his eyebrows fiercely, and asked in a low voice, "Why is Si Long here?"

Seeing that the doctor was still waiting at the side, Chen Yunkang said, "Our brother went in to talk, this is the doctor you invited, right?"

Chen Yunzheng called the doctor over to chat with each other, went into the courtyard, and first took the doctor to see Brother Jun.Because brother Jun was young, it was inconvenient for the fourth grandmother to be a female relative, so Si Long stood by and watched over.

When Chen Yunzheng saw that it was indeed her, his veins twitched a few times, and his eyes showed a bit of sternness.Brother Jun saw three big men coming in, besides his father, there was also a handsome young man with a fierce expression and a man carrying a medicine box, so he hid in Si Long's arms in fright.

Si Long hugged him, and before he could salute, he coaxed Brother Jun to stand up, but Chen Yun raised his hand to signal him, and said, "Don't be so polite, sir, please let me know the pulse."

The doctor sat down, took Brother Jun's hand and examined it for a while, only said that the cold air entered the body, and prescribed a prescription.He also wondered, although the young master's pulse was weak, but he was in good spirits, and his body was gradually getting stronger. It was not a serious illness, so why did he rush to Chenzhou Mansion to ask him for treatment?
Even though the county is small, it's not impossible to hire a doctor?
Chen Yunzheng was also full of suspicion, and it was Chen Yunkang who solved the mystery for him.Chen Yunzheng was relieved to hear that Manman didn't come in person, but sent Si Long out of sympathy.

In any case, it was a great achievement for Si Long to take care of Brother Jun, so Chen Yunzheng rewarded Si Long with 20 taels of silver through Chen Yunkang's hand.

Si Long resigned firmly, saying: "How does this servant understand these things, it was all taught by my grandmother. The servant is just doing a little hard work. If you want to reward meritorious deeds, fourth master should thank my grandma."

Chen Yunkang said with a smile: "The one who rewards you is the one who rewards you. I have another big thank you for your grandma."

No matter what, at last Chen Yunzheng spoke, and Si Long reluctantly answered.

After taking the medicine, Brother Jun became more and more healthy, and soon he became alive again, except for a little weight loss, he was clearly a lively, cute, shrewd and lovable little doll.

Standing next to Si Long, she sneaked a peek at Chen Yunzheng from time to time, and when she saw him looking over, she swished her eyes away again, but after a while, she still looked for him again, with eager longing in her eyes.

In the evening, Chen Yunzheng returned to the Chen Mansion, met Mrs. Chen, and briefly talked about Brother Jun's situation.

Mrs. Chen looked at him and said, "I heard that brother Jun's child will be fine only if he is taken care of by someone close to your wife?"

Chen Yunzheng said casually: "Is it? I don't know the things in the inner courtyard so clearly. The fourth sister-in-law fell ill, and the fourth brother lost a lot of weight. Came out without questioning anything."

He looked like he wasn't interested and didn't want to ask more questions.

Mrs. Chen was originally worried that he would save Brother Jun because of Su's favor, and easily win back her son's heart. I'm a little bit lucky.

In vain, Su Shi's good intentions are in vain, really relieved.

Mrs. Chen then snorted, and said: "You are a man's family after all, even if you don't care about the affairs in the inner courtyard, you must be aware of it. Don't be fooled and be kept in the dark..."

Chen Yun raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the matter?"

Mrs. Chen said about seeing Fu being beaten: "I understand that she is not in good health, and I kindly asked her to go back to Qiuyunju to recover from her illness. She is fine. The person who beat me didn't even hum. Do I, an elder, care about it?"

Chen Yunzheng laughed, and said: "That's the dog next to the wife. To put it mildly, I may have done many bad things behind your back. There are many people who don't like her, but it's just a look. It's not easy for you to lose face. What can you tell me about these shitty things? I haven't done enough? How about I beat Wen Shi a few times to make you vent your anger? "

An angry Mrs. Chen rolled her eyes, panted for a long time before angrily said: "A dog can't spit out ivory, why did I give birth to such a rebellious son like you."

Chen Yunzheng yawned again and again, regained his laziness, and sat crookedly on the chair as if he had no bones, and said: "I don't care anyway, at most you chatter with me, the rest, you see for yourself Let's do it."

Mrs. Chen was angry again, but her heart ached when she saw him, so she had to urge him: "Okay, you haven't had a good rest these few days, go back and rest early, and talk again tomorrow morning."

At the end, he said half-angrily and half-blamely: "You child, you are a solid-eyed fool. When someone else's child is sick, you follow him tirelessly, running around day and night, and your enthusiasm is too much. Your body is Your own, and there is no one who knows the cold and the hot right now, so you have to take good care of them. Get closer to those two girls and train them well, it will be better than a sick child who makes you angry every day. "

Chen Yunzheng didn't say yes or no, stretched his waist, said "I'm going to sleep for a while", got up and left.

Chen Yunzheng didn't even turn a corner, and went straight out of Mrs. Chen's spring, and returned to Qiuyunju.Si Long had already spoken back to Manman, Manman understood that she was tired for two days and one night, and she was fine now, so she urged her to go down and rest.

When Chen Yunzheng opened the door and came in, Manman was sitting beside the kang table doing needlework.Chen Yun was wrapping his arms around her waist from behind, and asked, "Didn't you say that sewing is not allowed during the first month? What are you in a hurry for?" Pulling it over, it turned out to be a child's clothes.Chen Yun's joking expression froze, and the rest of the words were choked in his throat.

Manman turned back and smiled at him, and said: "Those old etiquettes and rules, believe it, and don't believe it, anyway, I am idle, and I am also idle, and this brother Jun is also predestined, why don't you do it for him?" Clothes. Do you think this color is okay? I heard from Sloan that he looks fair and clean, and his big eyes and long eyelashes are very cute. I think his skin looks fair and tender when he wears plain clothes. What do you think? Sloan said he With such a height, I guessed it and made it. I don’t know if it’s big or small. But children always see the wind, even if they are a little bigger, they will be able to wear it next year. But, I don’t know the fourth brother, Will fourth sister-in-law accept the clothes I made? If she accepts them, will she wear them for Brother Jun?"

Manman has never talked so much before, but now she chatters endlessly.Her eyes were gentle, and her expression was also soft. Speaking of Brother Jun, her eyebrows were slightly frowned, showing a different kind of affection for this child who was only known by name but never met.

Chen Yunzheng leaned forward and kissed Manman's lips, blocking her words.

Manman let go of her hand, put the small clothes in the basket, put her arms around Chen Yunzheng's neck, and sobbed softly, "To be honest, it would be nice if our brother Jun was still alive."

Chen Yunzheng kissed Manman's salty tears rudely, and murmured: "I'm sorry, Manman, I'm sorry—"
