Chapter 304 Gao Wanxin has a fever
However, some of the houses collapsed and some became dangerous after being flooded.
Those that are still well preserved are all from families that are relatively well off. The houses are solidly built and not easy to collapse.
Chen Jingyan and Zhao Xuan stepped forward and asked those who had stored grain at home to do charity voluntarily.
For ordinary people whose houses collapsed and whose land was damaged by floods, they will be registered and exempted from paying taxes for three years.
Merchants are exempt from some taxes, but they still have to pay taxes on the part they make from doing business.
Half a month later, Chen Jingyan went back early and handed the rest of the matters to Zhao Xuan. Gu Heng and Li Yuan originally came to look for Li Yuan's family. Now that her family was there, they had nothing to worry about.
But Gu Heng still chose to stay because after the flood, some people developed fever symptoms.
He asked Chen Jingyan to bring Li Yuan back to Kyoto.
When Gu Heng learned that some people in Jiangcheng had a fever, he immediately reported it to Zhao Xuan, who had already discovered the abnormality.
Because Gao Wanxin also started to have a fever.
She didn't notice it herself. It was Zhao Xuan who found her body burning hot after waking up in the morning. He felt something was wrong and was about to find a doctor when Gu Heng came.
Gu Heng heard someone say last night that several residents outside the city had a fever and wanted him to see them. Gu Heng was kind and easy to talk to. No matter how hard it was, as long as a patient came, he would patiently see him.
The other doctors, perhaps because they had not had any rest for more than a month, had poor food and sleep, and had a lot of work to do, couldn't help but feel some complaints.
Looks a little cold.
The villagers still prefer to ask Gu Heng to come.
Gu Heng took a look and was worried that it was a plague.
They not only brought food from the capital, but also a lot of medicinal herbs. From the very beginning of flood control, they had been giving the people medicine. Perhaps some people didn't get to drink it, or drank too little, and coupled with malnutrition and poor resistance, some people naturally fell ill...
Zhao Xuan first asked Gu Heng to come into the room and take Gao Wanxin's pulse.
"How? While she's still feeding the baby, Brother Gu, you must think of a way."
Zhao Xuan looked at the hungry child and Gao Wanxin, who was burning hot and unconscious from the fever.
Gao Wanxin really felt like she was going to die. In the second half of last night, she first felt dizzy and had a headache, and then her body began to feel cold. When it was almost dawn, she felt like she was being roasted on a fire.
Zhao Xuan was busy with the flood and went to bed very late at night.
Sometimes, in order not to disturb the mother and child's sleep, he would sleep in the outer room. Today, he was woken up by the child crying.
He was busy until late at night and only took a nap at dawn. He was already unhappy about being woken up by the child.
But then I thought, that was my son.
Moreover, Gao Wanxin knew that he was busy recently and would not let the child cry to disturb him.
Realizing that something was wrong, Zhao Xuan stood up and walked over quickly, only to find Gao Wanxin who had a high fever and the crying baby.
"Don't worry, my lord. Madam Gao is just sweating. I think she caught a cold at night. She will be fine soon after taking some medicine."
"However, you must pay attention to cooling it down. You can't continue to burn it like this, otherwise your brain will be burned."
Gu Heng had never seen a person's body temperature so high.
Zhao Xuan was also very worried.
He was not very good at taking care of people. He did not bring any maids when he came. He was surrounded by servants, and he could not let the servants take close care of Gao Wanxin.
Gao Wanxin woke up in a daze and heard someone talking outside the door and a child crying.
My son is still young and basically only drinks breast milk.
She had a fever and felt uncomfortable that night, so she didn't feed the child more than once, thinking that the child must be hungry by this time.
With her last bit of strength, Gao Wanxin got up from the bed and put on her clothes. She felt hot and cold at times. Even though the weather outside was still hot, Gao Wanxin felt cold.
She had no strength left and was half leaning against the door.
"Sir, please give me the child."
"Wanxin, why are you up? Lie down quickly, you still have a fever."
Zhao Xuan said, and then said to Gu Heng: "Brother Gu, please find Miss Su and ask her to take care of my wife for a few days."
Su Mo is the only woman Gu Heng knows recently.
He nodded and said okay.
He turned around and left.
Zhao Xuan held the child in one hand and supported Gao Wanxin with the other as they walked into the house. She started coughing again.
He covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed a few times, his face turning red.
"Don't hold it in."
Zhao Xuan frowned, his eyes full of heartache.
"I feel bad for my son. My Lord, if something really happens to me, you must raise the child well. If the old lady asks, don't say it was me. It can be anyone, just don't say it was me..."
She couldn't stand the old lady's look of disdain when she turned around to look at her.
The old lady treated her as kindly as her granddaughter.
But she seduced the adult and gave birth to a child.
Seeing Gao Wanxin like this, Zhao Xuan's face turned cold. "Gao Wanxin, it's already this time, and you're still thinking about those things? Does she know whether it's important to you or not?"
Zhao Xuan was angry with Gao Wanxin. Why was she so weak? Why couldn't she be tougher?
He had said long ago that he would take her back to the Zhao family, but she repeatedly objected.
Now you still say such words to entrust your child to me.
Seeing Zhao Xuan angry, Gao Wanxin dared not even breathe. She was afraid of Zhao Xuan. She had never expected to marry him, give her body to him, or even bear his child...
He was the one who pressed on.
She is an orphan, what can she use to fight back?
Before, she didn't even dare to get angry.
Now I think that since I am sick and can’t make it, I will just die like my mother.
Only then did she have the courage to be angry.
But she was still wrong and shouldn't have angered him.
"Sir, I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing again. Let me feed the child first, don't worry about me."
Zhao Xuan couldn't describe the feeling in his heart. He despised her weakness, but at the same time, he felt sorry for her weakness.
"Just lie down and I'll ask someone to cook for you."
"Doctor Gu said you're fine, it's just a simple fever."
Gao Wanxin nodded, went back to the room, sat on the bed, lifted her clothes and fed her son. Only at this moment did she feel that she was needed.
The son in her arms is everything to her.
The child loved her with all his heart.
Perhaps only her children can love her wholeheartedly.
For some reason, Gao Wanxin felt extremely uncomfortable, and her tears fell one after another like beads from a broken string.
The little baby in her arms who was nursing did not understand his mother's sadness and sorrow.
He just snuggled into his mother's arms more intimately, his little hands clutching the clothes on her chest, as if to comfort her lost and bad mood.
