Chapter 364: Residual Drug Effects
Song Yuntang trotted forward and got into the carriage with the help of the man. After getting into the carriage, he looked at him with a worried look on his face.
"Why did you come out without telling me?"
When I got closer, I smelled the faint scent of incense lingering on his body, and I understood.
It turned out that Lin Zhaozhao wanted to frame Xu Qingye, but he must have seen through her plan, which is why she left Yang's house early.
Instead, she caused others to fall into her trap.
As soon as Song Yuntang and Nian'er got on the carriage, Xu Qingye asked the coachman to set off.
"What happened then?" Song Yuntang looked at him and asked.
Xu Qingye lifted up the slightly wet hem of his clothes.
"Probably, the servants of the Yang Mansion were bribed and deliberately wet my clothes and took me to change. I have always been cautious, and when I smelled the incense in the wing room, I was cautious. I asked the servants of the Yang Mansion to greet Mr. Yang for me, and then returned to the carriage first."
Song Yuntang covered his cold hand.
"You asked the servants to say hello to Young Master Yang, but you didn't ask them to tell me. It took a lot of effort for you to recover. If you caught a cold, it would be more troublesome to recover."
Xu Qingye shook his head.
"I'm fine."
He had already smelled the incense at that time and was worried about any accidents on the road, so after telling the servants in the Yang Mansion, he went straight back to the carriage.
Afterwards, I opened the curtain and let the wind blow for a while, and the effect of the medicine was slightly weakened, but my body also felt a little cooler.
He didn't tell Song Yuntang because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control himself with her around.
After all, it happened in public.
This world is always harsher on women. If she does something out of line outside, even though they are husband and wife, it will be bad for her reputation.
He took his hand away from Song Yuntang.
"No need to cover yourself up. Your body cannot afford to get cold now."
Song Yuntang didn't say much, but took his pulse first, "I'm afraid I'll have to prescribe some medicine to clear the remaining poison for you after we go back."
Outside the carriage, the rain was getting heavier.
"Master, please be faster."
They were the first guests to come out of Yang's Mansion. It was raining and there were almost no pedestrians on the street. The master responded and drove the carriage faster.
Nian'er glanced at the rain outside, then turned to look at the two of them.
"Cousin, cousin, it's raining so hard. I'm afraid we'll get soaked when we get off the carriage."
Song Yuntang shook his head and said, "There's nothing we can do about getting wet. When we get home, boil a big pot of hot water to wash, and then boil some ginger and sugar water to drive away the cold. It shouldn't be a big problem."
After a while, the carriage arrived at the door of the house.
Xu Qingye was the first to jump off the carriage. He asked the two to wait in the carriage for a while and then went into the yard and took out an umbrella.
Song Yuntang paid for the carriage, and he and Nian'er hid under Xu Qingye's umbrella and returned to the main hall.
"Nian'er, wipe the water off your head with a dry towel and go to the kitchen to light a fire first."
"Why."
Nian'er responded, took a dry towel, and walked towards the kitchen while wiping her hair.
Song Yuntang's clothes were not wet, only a few drops of rain fell on the hem of her skirt, but it was not a problem. Xu Qingye went in and out, and a large area of his shoulders and back were wet.
While Xu Qingye was hanging up the umbrella, she quickly went into the house and took out a dry cotton coat and a handkerchief. While the man was changing his clothes, she took the handkerchief and began to wipe his hair.
But he was too tall, and he had to raise his arms very high to reach the side of his head, and soon he felt exhausted.
Xu Qingye put on his wet coat and looked down at the girl in front of him. Her eyebrows were gentle and her expression was focused. It seemed that the only thing in her eyes was his wet hair.
The man's throat moved, and a fire seemed to rise up in his body again.
He was well aware that there was still some residual drug effect in his body.
In order to prevent the fire in his body from burning him to the point of losing his mind, he reached out and took the handkerchief from Song Yuntang's hand.
"I'll do it myself."
Just as Song Yuntang felt tired of raising his arms, he gave it to him.
"Okay, I'll go get you a prescription and make some ginger and sugar water. We'll each have a bowl later."
"good."
Xu Qingye nodded, watched her leave the room, sat on the bed and opened his clothes a little.
Song Yuntang acted quickly. He wrote down a prescription for Nian'er and asked her to go to the clinic with an umbrella to get the medicine. He then went to the kitchen to make ginger and sugar water and lit a charcoal stove for Xu Qingye.
Fortunately, the clinic was not far from home, but the rain was too heavy, and Nian'er's shoes and socks were wet when she came back.
Song Yuntang poured her a large basin of water.
"Nian'er, go soak your feet first and change your shoes and socks."
Nian'er held the basin, rubbed her toes against each other, and said a little embarrassedly.
"Cousin, I have no shoes."
Song Yuntang was stunned and looked down at the shoes on her feet. They were made for the little girl by Jiang Shi after she was brought from Cile Town to the county town so that Song Yuntang could look decent when she went out.
As for Nian'er's old shoes, they were patched up layer upon layer, and the forefoot was worn out. They were really in a shabby state, so she was told to throw them away.
Jiang only made one pair at the time and did not consider the possibility of rain.
Song Yuntang put the water spoon on the stove, went back to the house and gave her his shoes.
"My feet are slightly bigger than yours, so you can just try these on for now. When the rain stops, I'll buy you a pair of shoes to change into."
Nian'er shook her head hurriedly, "Cousin, you don't have to spend money on me. I can just dry my wet shoes and wear them."
Song Yuntang poured the medicine that Nian'er got from the clinic into the medicine jar and said, "Now that you are following me, you are mine. I can't let you be too poor in terms of food and clothing."
Nian'er's eyes were red.
"My cousin treats me so well."
During the time she followed Song Yuntang, she had enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear, and as long as she had a bite to eat, she would never forget herself.
She was grateful in her heart.
Gradually, Song Yuntang was placed in an important position in his heart.
Song Yuntang smiled and placed the medicine pot with water in the lit small stove to boil.
"As long as you don't have any other thoughts, you can stay with me until you get married. But if you have other thoughts, you know that I can't tolerate any sand in my eyes. Even if you are Xu's cousin, I will not want you no matter how much you beg me."
Cheng Nian'er hurriedly shook her head.
"Don't worry, cousin, from now on your affairs are Nian'er's affairs, and I will never have any second thoughts."
As for getting married.
She is still young and doesn't want to think about it for now.
If I don't meet the right one, I'll just stay with my cousin's wife for the rest of my life, and it probably won't be any worse than being married.
Song Yuntang said nothing more.
After she boiled Xu Qingye's medicine and gave it to him to drink, she poured him a large basin of water.
"Soak your feet first to sweat, then wipe your body and put on dry underwear. This way you won't catch a cold easily, and the medicine in your body will be cleared faster."
Xu Qingye nodded.
"good."
After soaking my feet, wiping my body and changing into dry clothes, the effect of the medicine was clearly evident.
…
It was raining heavily and the weather was cold, so Xu Wencheng did not return the same day.
The rain continued until the next morning when it stopped for a while.
After finishing his breakfast, Song Yuntang took advantage of the rain stopping and went out to the clinic with a pair of clean shoes.
