Chapter 93 High Fever
After half a day's journey, everyone stopped to rest. Now they were walking on the official road, and they met more and more refugees on the road. In order to avoid accidents, everyone tried to stay away from the crowd.
After Xu Zhiyi stopped, he helped to quickly make the black flour paste. Now there were people fleeing famine everywhere, and there were too many people and too many eyes, so it was better to be low-key when eating.
Just as everyone had finished their meal, they leaned against the cart to take a nap for half a minute before continuing on their journey, when they heard a series of voices.
"Husband, what should I do? The eldest son's high fever hasn't recovered yet, and the second son has also developed a high fever."
"Son! Your father has a high fever. Why don't we go back and go to Lincheng to see a doctor?"
"Where did we get the silver? We used all the silver to prepare food supplies in Lincheng yesterday!"
When Xu Zhiyi heard the words of the people in the distance, he became alert instantly. After thinking of the possibility, he stood up in shock and planned to discuss it with the head of the village. As a result, he stood up too hastily and lost his balance, and fell directly to Shen Changan beside him.
"ah!"
The whole person fell on the legs of Shen Changan who was resting next to the cart.
"hiss……"
Xu Zhiyi got up quickly out of fear, and then helped Shen Changan massage his legs, and asked with concern: "Does it still hurt?"
Hearing this, Shen Changan shook his head: “It doesn’t hurt anymore!”
After he finished speaking, he suddenly said excitedly: "My wife, my legs hurt, my legs hurt!"
After Xu Zhiyi heard what Shen Changan said, he came back to his senses and grabbed Shen Changan's sleeve excitedly: "Changan, your legs can feel it now!"
After hearing this, Shen Wuyou jumped over and asked again in surprise, “Brother, you…say it again?”
Upon hearing this, Shen Changan stretched out his hand, which was trembling with excitement, and pinched his leg fiercely. When he felt the pain again, he was so excited that he shed tears.
"Hiss... it hurts, my leg hurts, it can feel the pain!"
After Shen Wuyou heard the clear answer, he also burst into tears of joy, and the two brothers hugged each other and sobbed.
Xu Zhiyi patted the two of them on the side to comfort them, but they both looked at her.
Then each of them held one hand. Xu Zhiyi looked at herself, with the two brothers leaning on her shoulders on each side, and she smiled helplessly.
After the three of them raised their heads, they saw Su standing in the middle. Even the village head, who had just heard the noise, brought everyone over. They all stared at Xu Zhiyi and the other two and laughed secretly.
Shen Wuyou was so scared that he quickly jumped up and stood aside, while Shen Changan also quickly turned sideways and dared not look at everyone, his cheeks flushed.
And Xu Zhiyi was also extremely embarrassed. He was hugging people left and right, but then twenty or thirty people appeared in front of him, surrounded him, and asked him if he was socially dead.
The village head came back to his senses, pretended to cough twice in embarrassment, and explained: "Ahem, we just heard some noise and thought something happened, so we hurried over to take a look!"
Mrs. Hu: "Hey, it's okay. We all understand. It's normal for couples to fight."
Hearing this, Xu Zhiyi explained, "No! It was because I accidentally fell on Chang'an's legs just now, and then Chang'an felt the pain in his legs!"
Doctor Li, who was standing by, was delighted when he heard this: "Really? That's great news! That means Chang'an's leg has a good chance of recovering."
Others don't know the situation, but as a doctor, although he has no way to cure Shen Changan's legs, he knows that if his legs can regain sensation and he can find Doctor Mu again, then the chances of being cured will be 60 to 70 percent!
When everyone heard what Doctor Li said, they were happy for Shen Changan.
Doctor Li then said, "Changan, your legs have just regained feeling. When you have time to rest, you can press them more often. It is very good for your legs. If you meet a doctor who can fix tendons and bones in the future, your legs will be completely healed."
Shen Changan nodded. He couldn't see any hope before. Although it might not be really good now, at least he had hope in his heart and felt hope.
Su pulled Xu Zhiyi and whispered, "Zhiyi! Doctor Li just said that Changan's legs need to be massaged more. It will help his legs recover in the future."
Xu Zhiyi nodded after hearing this: "Yes, I heard it!"
"Oh, are you stupid? If you have time during the break, you can help Chang'an massage more. Firstly, it will be good for his legs, and secondly, you two can spend more time together. The deep feelings are developed through time together."
Xu Zhiyi: "Okay! I know what's going on. Why are you so anxious?"
"How can I not be anxious? You have two children. If you have a good relationship with this one, there is another one waiting. You have to treat them equally and not show partiality, understand?"
Xu Zhiyi listened to Su's words, which became more and more biased. She pushed her and said, "Mom, stop worrying about this. You should go and comfort your grandfather more! He doesn't even pay attention to you now."
Hearing this, Su felt guilty again and sighed, "Well, forget it, as long as you know what's going on."
"Mom, I have something to ask Uncle Lin."
Xu Zhiyi waved his hand and ran in the right direction.
Su looked at Xu Zhiyi's back and shook her head. This silly girl, can't she see that Chang'an and Wuyou sometimes take the initiative? They both took her words that she deliberately said last time to heart, but this silly girl didn't see it once?
The head of the village, who had just come back and sat down to take a nap, looked at Xu Zhiyi in front of him and asked in confusion: "Zhiyi? What's wrong?"
Xu Zhiyi squatted down and whispered, "Uncle Lin, I feel like something is wrong with the people who fled the famine in the distance. People over there have been suffering from high fevers one after another. This is such a coincidence. One person has a high fever, and within a day, several others have high fevers too!"
The head of the village heard this and thought of something. He shuddered in his heart: "Zhiyi, this could be an epidemic! It's contagious. This happened thirty years ago. I remember that it was accompanied by a cough. That was terrible! Half of the people in the city died!"
"Is this going to be the same as it was back then? What should we do? We can't run away!"
Xu Zhiyi comforted him: "Uncle Lin, from now on, we must not get close to them. Also, didn't we make a face towel last time? Make it thicker, or add cotton to sew it, it can still be protective."
"We are just guessing now! It may not be true, but it is better to be on guard."
The village head said: "Okay, I'll go ask Doctor Li and see if he has any suggestions or advice."
Xu Zhiyi nodded, then stood up and went back, telling the Su family and the Su clan to be careful and not to get close to other people fleeing famine.
Although everyone in the Su family and the Su company didn't know why Xu Zhiyi suddenly said this, Xu Zhiyi had specifically stated it, so they just had to listen!
Then, it was Shen Changan and Shen Wuyou. When they heard Xu Zhiyi's words, they promised to remember them in their hearts.
