Chapter 127 Eating Candy
Just a scratch?
Jiang Shu didn't believe Yu Zheng's words, and insisted on asking Doctor Feng to check his wound after returning to the pharmacy.
Yu Zheng couldn't persuade him, so he had to take off his clothes and let Doctor Feng check.
Jiang Shu was still worried, afraid that Yu Zheng had colluded with the doctor to deceive her, so she shamelessly watched from the side.
"Tsk, your elder brother's injury is not light, I'm afraid he will need more than a month to recover." Doctor Feng smacked his lips and shook his head.
These two brothers, one injured and the other sick, really share weal and woe.
Hearing this, Jiang Shu's heart instantly tightened, and he ignored the etiquette and went over to take a closer look.
There was a bowl-sized bruise under Yu Zheng's right shoulder. The deep purple color formed a sharp contrast with the surrounding skin, and the slightly swollen bulge was shocking to the eyes.
Even though he was injured like this, he still said that he was fine and wanted to hide it from her.
Jiang Shu was a little annoyed.
"I'll prescribe some blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medicine. Let Zhuzi steam a medicine bag, and you apply it to him after hot compress." Doctor Feng instructed.
Jiang Shu agreed and asked Yu Zheng to take a bath first.
After applying the medicine, he can't touch water again.
At this point, Yu Zheng was no longer stubborn and did as he was told.
After taking a bath and changing into new clothes, Yu Zheng took off half of his shirt and lay on the bed, allowing Jiang Shu to give him hot compress.
"Lie down and don't move. I'll come to apply the medicine to you after I finish taking a bath."
"Okay." Yu Zheng responded in a low voice.
He could see that Jiang Shu looked unhappy, and knew that she was worried about him, and there was a hint of sweetness in his heart.
After a long day of hard work, Yu Zheng was a little tired. When he was lying on the bed waiting for Jiang Shu, he accidentally fell asleep.
Jiang Shu came back after washing up, and was stunned to see Yu Zheng's handsome face while sleeping.
The man who was usually reserved and awe-inspiring, was now quietly and docilely sleeping on the bed, with his clothes half-removed, revealing his strong and broad back, exuding a deadly temptation.
Jiang Shu walked over quietly, sat in front of the bed, and stared at Yu Zheng's profile.
On his face that looked like it was carved by a knife, his eyebrows were thick and sharp, his long eyelashes were slightly curled, his nose was straight, and his thin lips were a healthy honey pink.
Jiang Shu swallowed softly, trying his best to suppress the urge to go up and take a bite.
Reaching out to touch Yu Zheng's forehead, Jiang Shu breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he did not have a fever. Turning to touch the medicine bag on Yu Zheng's back,
Jiang Shu found that it was no longer warm. Gently taking the medicine bag away, Jiang Shu applied the ointment to Yu Zheng's wound and gently rubbed it with his palm.
"Hmm!" Yu Zheng groaned and opened his eyes.
In fact, he woke up a long time ago, but he realized that the person who entered the room was Jiang Shu, so he continued to pretend to sleep.
But it was too painful to rub the ointment on the wound, and he couldn't pretend anymore even if he bit his teeth.
"Did it hurt you? I'll be gentle." Jiang Shu was cautious, as if treating a precious and fragile item.
Yu Zheng closed his eyes slightly, feeling Jiang Shu's soft palm wandering on his back.
"Hurry up and put on your clothes. Be careful not to catch a cold." Jiang Shu applied the medicine and pulled Yu Zheng's clothes on, then went out to wash her hands.
When she came back after washing her hands, Yu Zheng had already put on his clothes and stood up.
Thinking of Yu Zheng sleeping on the bed just now, Jiang Shu said, "If you are sleepy, take a nap."
Although her head was a little dizzy, she could still hold on for a while.
"I'm not sleepy, you go to sleep." Yu Zheng had already sat down on the chair.
Jiang Shu didn't want to sleep for the time being, so the two sat and chatted.
When talking about the landslide yesterday, Jiang Shu told Yu Zheng: "When I fell into the river, I glanced back and vaguely saw a figure moving on the mountain."
"Someone?" Yu Zheng was shocked, and his expression suddenly became solemn.
Jiang Shu frowned and said hesitantly, "It's too far away, and it was just a quick glance. I'm not sure if I saw it wrong."
"It doesn't matter, we'll know after checking." Yu Zheng frowned, and he had a plan in mind.
If it was an accident, it would be their bad luck. If it was man-made, he must find out the truth and find out who was behind it.
Jiang Shu also knew that it was better to believe it than not. It was a matter of life and death, so he had to find out the truth before he could feel at ease.
The two talked for a while, and Jiang Shu yawned, and his head became more and more dizzy.
"Go to sleep, I'll be here and not go anywhere." Yu Zheng coaxed in a gentle voice.
Jiang Shu couldn't hold on any longer, and after lying on the bed, her eyes closed sleepily.
Yu Zheng pulled the quilt up and covered her.
The room fell into silence. Yu Zheng sat in front of the bed, his mind full of thoughts. He thought about the landslide from beginning to end.
In the end, he was sure that Jiang Shu was not mistaken. This was man-made.
When he got off the car yesterday, he swept the rolling rocks on the road and found that the road surface with falling rocks was very long and there were a lot of them. He was puzzled at the time, but he didn't think much about it.
Now think about it, if those stones were all rolled down naturally, the mountain would have collapsed long ago.
Who wanted him to die?
Yu Zheng thought about the suspicious person in his mind.
Time passed quietly, and it was evening in a blink of an eye.
Jiang Shu had been sleeping for a long time. Seeing that she had no intention of waking up, her cheeks turned red again. Yu Zheng thought it was not good and raised his hand to cover her forehead.
Sure enough, she had a fever again.
Yu Zheng hurriedly called Doctor Feng.
After examining the patient, Doctor Feng said, "Fever usually recurs for several days, subsiding during the day and returning in the evening. Give her a cold compress to cool her down first, and I'll ask Zhuzi to boil some antipyretic medicine."
Yu Zheng agreed, fetched some cold water, soaked a handkerchief and gave it to Jiang Shu for a cold compress.
When it was getting dark, Ma brought in food.
Yu Zheng woke Jiang Shu up, but Jiang Shu didn't want to eat.
But how could the disease be cured without eating?
Yu Zheng used both soft and hard tactics to coax her into drinking half a bowl of porridge.
Jiang Shu felt as if her head weighed a thousand pounds and was about to explode with pain, and she fell asleep again in a daze.
After it was completely dark, Zhuzi brought the boiled medicine.
"Jiang Shu, wake up, drink the medicine before going to sleep." Yu Zheng called softly.
Jiang Shu shook her head unconsciously and muttered in dissatisfaction: "No, don't drink the medicine, it's so bitter."
No matter how Yu Zheng coaxed her, the confused Jiang Shu refused to drink the medicine.
Yu Zheng touched her flushed face and found it was terribly hot.
This medicine must be drunk!
Yu Zheng scooped up the medicine juice with a spoon, blew it gently and fed it to Jiang Shu.
Jiang Shu was very resistant, frowned and closed her mouth to refuse to drink.
Yu Zheng tried several times, but the medicine juice flowed to the neck of his jaw, and not a drop entered his mouth.
This method didn't work, so he had to try another one.
After wiping the flowing medicine juice with a handkerchief, Yu Zheng picked up the medicine bowl and took a big sip himself.
It's no wonder that Jiang Shu refused to drink it, the medicine was indeed too bitter to swallow.
Yu Zheng frowned, held Jiang Shu's head with his hand to prevent her from moving, and leaned over to feed her medicine with his mouth.
The bitter medicine entered her mouth, and Jiang Shu began to struggle and resist. Yu Zheng held her steady, and passed the medicine into her lips close to hers.
After passing the whole bowl of medicine mouthful after mouthful, Yu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, and his mouth was extremely bitter.
"It's so bitter." Jiang Shu choked aggrievedly.
Yu Zheng took out a candy and fed it to her.
Seeing her lips move slightly, Yu Zheng's throat rolled, and he said hoarsely: "What should I do if it's bitter too?"
"Eat candy." Jiang Shu was so drunk that she bit the candy with her teeth to show Yu Zheng.
Yu Zheng's dark eyes darkened, and he leaned over uncontrollably.
Their lips touched, and Yu Zheng tasted a faint sweetness, and greedily wanted more.
"Hmm..." Jiang Shu, who was dizzy from the burning, felt that someone had taken her candy away, and subconsciously wanted to take it back.
As the two of them fought for it, the candy melted quickly, and the bitterness in their mouths gradually faded.
After eating a candy, Yu Zheng pecked the cherry lips in front of him with satisfaction, and his eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles.
