Chapter 120 The Marquis Prepares Hot Pot for Her
Yun Qiao has been feeling dizzy these days, fearing that she might have contracted the disease. She discovered that this disease was different from the modern one. At least the mortality rate in modern times was not that high, but in ancient times, the mortality rate was appalling.
Yun Qiao was afraid that she would die here.
When she felt drowsy and uncomfortable, she hurried to find Gu Heng.
In order to prevent himself from getting infected, Gu Heng would take some preventive soup and medicine every day. He also ate ginseng slices every day to strengthen his body.
When Yun Qiao arrived, Gu Heng had just finished preparing the medicine.
"Miss Qiao, why are you here? What happened to the Marquis?"
Yun Qiao waved her hand. She and Gu Heng were so familiar with each other that she was too lazy to follow some so-called hypocritical rules.
Then he said, "I have been feeling really unwell these past few days. Second Master, could you please prescribe me some medicine so I can go back and take it."
Chen Jingyan is almost recovered, and now he has to cheer up and go to Guangcheng Island to wipe out the pirates who frequently rob merchant ships.
Yun Qiao knew that Chen Jingyan was busy, and of course, she didn't want to have much contact with Chen Jingyan.
I don't want him to know about my situation.
Gu Heng asked her, "How's the situation with the Marquis?"
Yun Qiao replied, "He seems to be getting much better. He's even been cursing a lot louder lately."
Gu Heng smiled when he heard that, and asked about Yun Qiao's symptoms, then gave her a few packets of prepared herbs.
"Take it back, boil it, and drink it. You may have just started to experience symptoms, but I've found that with this disease, medication can only slow it down, but it can't cure it completely. You still need to be more careful."
Yun Qiao listened to Gu Heng's instructions, picked up the medicine, and went back.
She never expected that the disease would come so quickly. It had only been an hour since she went to Gu Heng's place, but when she came back she felt a splitting headache.
She called the maidservant in front of her and asked her to bring some hot water.
He also asked someone to prepare the medicine.
Yun Qiao fell asleep on the bed. She seemed to have a fever and saw her own grandmother.
I reached out to grab it, but I couldn't catch it...
At this moment, Chen Jingyan had a gloomy face as he looked at the crazy woman in front of him who was hugging him and calling him "Grandma".
"Yun Qiao, open your eyes and look at me. Who am I?"
Gu Heng, who was called over and stood in front of her, said softly, "Maybe Miss Qiao is missing her family."
Chen Jingyan knew in his heart that Yun Qiao had been fostered in her aunt's home since she was a child, and she must have felt very aggrieved.
"Let her wake up first."
Gu Heng said, "Miss Qiao is now delirious due to fever, just like the Marquis' symptoms at the beginning. This will take time."
Chen Jingyan suddenly became anxious.
"Could it be possible that she will be burned like me? She is so fragile, how can she bear it?"
He marched and fought to keep fit, but he almost didn't make it and nearly died from this disease. How could someone as frail as Yun Qiao survive it?
Chen Jingyan was very worried.
Gu Heng wrote a decoction and arranged for the maid to watch over him. He suggested that the Marquis should not come over again in the next few days to avoid him getting sick again.
Yun Qiao had a fever, but she still felt something. She just vaguely felt that she was cultivating immortality. After that period of dizziness passed, she woke up.
She knew who was taking care of her.
When she woke up, it was completely dark.
She moved slightly and found that the man immediately came forward, holding her hand and whispered, "Are you awake? You've been sleeping for three or four hours."
"My Lord, why are you here? Just let the maid serve you."
Yun Qiao didn't ask the time, as she knew it was already late.
It was pitch black outside and I couldn't see anything.
Chen Jingyan replied: "I'm worried."
Yun Qiao didn't answer him, leaning back against the pillow. "This illness is really severe. I feel like my body is falling apart. My throat is dry too. If you still have the strength, please bring me some warm water."
"Wait."
After Chen Jingyan finished speaking, he went to fetch some warm water.
Look at the way he serves people, he is quite skilled.
"My Lord, you've been through a lot. But I think you should take care of yourself first. Don't wait for me to recover and then fall down again. I'll have to take care of you. We'll be stuck in a vicious cycle."
Chen Jingyan ignored her and said, "You don't need to worry about my health, but I will take care of yours."
After drinking hot water to moisten her throat, Yun Qiao took some medicine.
Chen Jingyan asked her if she wanted to eat something. Yun Qiao really had a big appetite. She didn't want to eat anything else but hot pot, preferably a spicy hot pot with a beef oil base.
She said it, but she didn't ask Chen Jingyan to prepare it for her.
Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, Chen Jingyan called the kitchen staff, who spent an hour preparing a spicy hot pot for her.
A rich variety of side dishes were also prepared.
There are beef, mutton, and other fresh vegetables.
"How come there are such fresh vegetables in this season?" Yun Qiao was surprised, but she was more happy in her heart.
"There are greenhouses in the north, and there are also greenhouses in the south that are specifically designed to grow vegetables, but they are relatively rare and are only used for the tables of the wealthy."
After Chen Jingyan finished speaking, he helped Yun Qiao sit down.
"Which meat should we eat first?"
Yun Qiao said immediately, "Let's eat beef first. It's rare to eat fresh beef here."
Chen Jingyan was busy cooking meat for her but didn't answer.
He cooks the food while Yunqiao eats it.
The more she ate, the more energetic she felt. Yun Qiao felt that she had more strength. She had a premonition that she would be well again soon.
After eating beef and a lot of mutton, and then a little bit of vegetables, she was full.
Chen Jingyan couldn't eat spicy food, so he just watched her eat.
Later, we used a clear soup pot and ate some boiled vegetables together. Yun Qiao wanted to sleep after eating and didn't care about anything else.
Chen Jingyan was afraid that something might happen to Yun Qiao at night, so he stayed up all night.
Last night, I got up and had a hot pot supper. The next morning, Yun Qiao woke up late and was still sleeping soundly. Chen Jingyan couldn't help but feel a little worried. He frequently checked her breath and found that she was alive...
When Chen Jingyan checked her breath for the last time, Yun Qiao suddenly opened her eyes.
"My Lord, are you hoping for my death?"
"Looking at the tone of voice, he must be feeling better now. You are also weird. Eating a hot pot makes people feel refreshed."
When he was sick, he had no appetite at all.
Although Yunqiao was ill, her appetite was very good.
Yun Qiao smiled and said nothing. There was no need to tell Chen Jingyan.
Her illness came and went quickly, so quickly that Yun Qiao even suspected that she might have just had a simple fever and cold.
But Chen Jingyan still stayed with her for three days out of concern.
On the fourth day, when she was completely recovered, the two of them couldn't help themselves. Of course, it was Chen Jingyan who couldn't help himself and rolled over with Yun Qiao in his arms.
