Chapter 573 Spraying Bath
She reached out and touched Zhai Sheng's face, and found that Zhai Sheng's face was very hot, not only his face, but also his hands, especially the wound area, which was particularly hot.
"Tsk..." Qiao Nan took a breath, and quickly opened the curtain a little, and looked at Zhai Sheng's bed. There was a cup of boiled water and a medicine beside Zhai Sheng's bed. Obviously, these were reserved for Zhai Sheng to take, but Zhai Sheng didn't take any medicine at all because he fell asleep. What
made Qiao Nan most distressed was that Zhai Sheng was sweating all over, and his hair was shiny and stood up, which could be seen clearly. The honey-colored skin was soaked with a layer of sweat, shining with a different kind of water, and his eyebrows were as sharp as swords, plucking lightly. The thin lips that used to look good were now covered with a layer of white skin, with one or two cracks on them.
Qiao Nan was so scared that she was shaking all the time. Shi Qing told her that Brother Zhai's injury was not serious. How could it not be serious? It was obviously very serious!
Brother Zhai was so seriously injured, and there was no one around to take care of him. What was the meaning of this army? In a few cases, could it be that even the political commissar didn't care about this matter?!
Qiao Nan was so angry that her face turned the color of pig liver. She took a cotton swab and soaked it in boiled water. She didn't get tired of it. She gently and tenderly wiped Zhai Sheng's cracked lips over and over again. Until the boiled water completely moistened Zhai Sheng's lips and the dead white that was previously annoying disappeared.
Seeing Zhai Sheng unconsciously opening his mouth and sticking out his tongue, obviously feeling thirsty and wanting to drink water, Qiao Nan did not dare to feed him immediately, but took the anti-inflammatory medicine placed on the stool beside Zhai Sheng's bed, peeled off the capsule, and poured all the powder in the capsule into the water cup and mixed it.
"Brother Zhai, I know you are thirsty. Let's take the medicine first, and then I will give you water." Knowing that Zhai Sheng might not hear, Qiao Nan still insisted in Zhai Sheng's ear, and then she took a ladle and fed the water mixed with anti-inflammatory medicine into Zhai Sheng's mouth little by little.
Anti-inflammatory medicine is very bitter, especially when taken this way.
But Qiao Nan had no other choice. If she didn't give Zhai Sheng the medicine this way, Zhai Sheng would not be able to swallow the medicine in his current condition.
Therefore, Qiao Nan deliberately did not satisfy Zhai Sheng's thirst for water. Only in this way, Zhai Sheng would not hesitate to accept the extremely bitter medicine because of thirst.
Slowly, he fed Zhai Sheng half a cup of medicine. Qiao Nan then cooled half a cup of boiled water again and patiently fed Zhai Sheng one ladle at a time.
"Comrade, can you please get a basin of water?" After solving Zhai Sheng's physiological needs, Qiao Nan asked the soldier for water.
The soldier hesitated: "Teacher Qiao, when I leave, you must close the door. Unless I come back, don't open the door to anyone who knocks, especially women." He had only been standing guard here for half a day, and he couldn't remember how many women wanted to see Captain Zhai.
From the female military doctor in the army to the young nurse working beside the female military doctor, even the female soldier who was helping out came to join in the fun, he was so busy.
"Okay, don't worry, unless you come back, I will definitely not open the door for anyone." Qiao Nan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, it turned out that this was the reason why someone was standing guard at Brother Zhai's door. After
getting Qiao Nan's guarantee, the soldier closed the door first, and then went to get the water Qiao Nan wanted.
Fortunately, when Qiao Nan was guarding Zhai Sheng, it was quite quiet outside the door, and no one else came to knock on the door, not even Qiu Chenxi who was dragged by Shi Qing showed up.
"Thank you." Holding a large basin of water, Qiao Nan smiled gratefully at the soldier.
"No, Teacher Xiao Qiao has taught us English for so long, we should say thank you. Teacher Xiao Qiao, if you need anything else, just tell me." The soldier brother was also honest: "This water is quite heavy, how about I move it to the room for you?"
"Okay." Qiao Nan nodded and made way.
After the soldier brother entered the room, he looked around more carefully and found that Zhai Sheng was lying on the bed steadily, without any discomfort. As for the table, there was an empty cup, and the medicine in the small medicine plate was gone: "Teacher Xiao Qiao, did Captain Zhai say this medicine himself, or did you feed it to him?"
When he first came to the guard post, he
saw that Captain Zhai had not taken the medicine yet. "I put the powder in the water, and then fed it to him with a ladle. Captain Zhai has a little fever, and the wound should be inflamed."
"Really, do you want to call a military doctor?" The soldier was a little nervous. He had no idea about these situations. The
boss gave a strict order. He only had to guard the door honestly and not let anyone enter Captain Zhai's dormitory. Except for Teacher Xiao Qiao, he didn't have to do anything else. But he didn't know that Captain Zhai's condition was not as mild as he imagined.
Qiao Nan was embarrassed: "I don't know either. Otherwise, you can ask a hospital to come and see Captain Zhai... Captain Zhai, and you can stay here. Or, you stay here and I'll call a military doctor?" Apart from feeding medicine, she couldn't do anything else.
"How about this, Teacher Xiao Qiao, you take care of Captain Zhai first, and you go ask the political commissar?" The soldier looked at Zhai Sheng's condition and chose a compromise.
Even if Zhai Sheng had a fever, at least on the surface, the soldier couldn't see any big problems.
"That's fine." Qiao Nan was very anxious, and the appearance of the soldier just gave her someone to discuss things with: "Then hurry up, don't delay. Captain Zhai is here, I'll take care of him, he will be fine."
"Okay, Teacher Xiao Qiao, wait, I'll be back soon!" Without saying a word, the soldier ran to the political commissar's office and explained everything to the political commissar.
After listening to it, the political commissar slowly put down the pen in his hand: "Do you remember my previous order?"
"Remember, I just need to guard the door of Captain Zhai's room and not let anyone in except Teacher Xiao Qiao."
"Okay, I don't have any new instructions, you can go back."
The soldier stared at the political commissar blankly, completely confused.
"Why, you didn't understand, do you want me to repeat it?"
"Report to the political commissar, I understand." The soldier saluted, took the lead with a mist on his head, and stood back: "Teacher Xiao Qiao, the political commissar said... that Captain Zhai's condition is not serious, just let him have a good rest, there is no need to call a military doctor."
"Are you sure?" Qiao Nan's muffled voice came.
"Sure!"
"Ah..." Qiao Nan sighed. Why did she feel that this matter was so weird and ridiculous?
