Chapter 114 Such a tiring thing
Xiao Nanchen didn't know that in the eyes of others, he had become a homosexual, but he was just glad that Chen Ning didn't see those dirty things.
It is true that the army does not allow female relatives to stay, but there are military prostitutes in many troops.
Except for his Fengning Iron Cavalry.
If Shen Ning had seen this just now, and if she had misunderstood that he was so dishonest in the army, he would have been unable to explain himself.
Chen Ning did not take a bath directly tonight. Instead, she used a wooden basin to scoop water from the bathtub to wash. Although this was more troublesome, most of the remaining half bucket of water was clean.
When she came out after washing and changing her clothes, she saw Xiao Nanchen with his face wet and taking off the disguise on his face.
That thing needs to be changed every two or three days, otherwise it will easily dry out and crack.
Shen Ning watched him wet his face, and then he just rubbed it lightly between his eyebrows and temples to remove some of the skin color, and his appearance returned to its original state. He still couldn't help but feel surprised.
"Is it that easy?"
Xiao Nanchen glanced at her and explained in a gentle voice, "It will soften when it comes into contact with water. If you pay attention during the day, it won't fall off."
Shen Ning immediately understood.
My king knows quite a lot.
Xiao Nanchen looked at her and suddenly asked, "Do you want to see the key?"
He hadn't finished removing the hair, leaving only a spot at the end of his eyebrow. He tilted his head to signal Shen Ning to look: "Here, at the hairline..."
Xiao Nanchen bent over and leaned over. Shen Ning slightly widened her eyes and reached out to touch that place. It was basically invisible to the naked eye, but the feel was indeed a little different.
At this moment, Xiao Nanchen suddenly turned around and looked at her.
He bent over, looking down at her. Shen Ning hadn't taken her hand back yet, and she felt a little uncomfortable for some reason, so she coughed lightly and took her hand back: "It's really impossible to tell."
Xiao Nanchen's Adam's apple moved, and he slowly stood up straight: "I'll go wash up first."
He walked behind the screen and saw that there was only half a bucket of water left in the bathtub... The wooden basin next to it was still wet. There was a drain outside the window. He had just heard her pour out the water she had used.
She didn't want him to use the water she had bathed in...
Xiao Nanchen had drunk some wine in the evening and was already a little distracted. He was worried that he would lose control of himself, so he didn't dare to act as ridiculously as he did last night. He stood next to the bathtub and hurriedly washed himself.
Shen Ning took a nap on her stomach, and when she woke up, she washed herself again. Now she was awake. Seeing Xiao Nanchen coming out with moisture, she told him about renovating the doctor's residence.
"I didn't want to get involved, but the living conditions there are indeed terrible. The house is old, damp and infested with insects. Doctors are also human beings, and if they don't get enough rest, their care for the injured will also be affected."
She said to Xiao Nanchen, "Anan, try talking to the commander-in-chief. I don't need to pay for the military expenses. I can pay for it. I earn so much money that I can't spend it all myself."
Xiao Nanchen walked over to her and poured her a glass of water. He couldn't help but want to tease her: "Shopkeeper Shen is so generous."
Shen Ning raised her chin, deliberately showing some complacency: "Of course not, maybe I will be the Shen Wansan of the Great Xuan Dynasty in the future."
Chen Ning was joking, but her high spirits instantly aroused Xiao Nanchen's unbridled desires that he had suppressed with great difficulty.
He poured himself a glass of water and drank it all, then asked as if to divert his attention: "Who is Shen Wansan?"
Shen Ning smiled and said, "A very, very, very rich man... I saw it in a storybook."
Xiao Nanchen hummed, "I'll talk to the commander-in-chief about renovating my residence. He probably won't refuse."
"That's great, thank you Anan."
Shen Ning smiled: "It's easier to get things done when you have someone."
Xiao Nanchen suddenly asked, "How are you going to thank me?"
He was a little dazed, staring at Chen Ning's lips without blinking... For the first time, he intuitively felt what it meant to have a *worm in his head.
No matter what she does, I think it looks good, and no matter what she says, I want to shut her mouth.
Was he so easily seduced before?
Shen Ning was stunned for a moment: "Ah? How do you want me to thank you?"
I vaguely remember Xu Zhiyi asking the same question last time, and then staring at her grilled fish without blinking, "What does my king want to eat?"
Xiao Nanchen was suddenly brought back to his senses by Shen Ning's words, and immediately looked away: "I was joking with you, I should be the one thanking you."
Shen Ning suddenly understood and laughed: "Then let's stop thanking each other, it's so polite."
"Well, go to sleep and get some rest."
After saying that, Xiao Nanchen walked out without looking back.
He had never felt that being in the same room with someone was such a tiring thing before...
Chen Ning was tired after a whole night and fell asleep soon after lying down. Xiao Nanchen was lying in the outer room, tossing and turning for a long time, so he simply got up and finished the bow that had some work left.
Early the next morning, Shen Ning woke up and saw the finished bow on the table. She picked it up and touched it, feeling very satisfied. There was also a matching quiver and arrows next to it.
It’s a pity that this is the navy camp and there is nowhere to hunt, otherwise Xiao Nanchen would have taken her hunting.
After washing up and having breakfast, she rushed to the wounded soldiers' hospital to check on the progress of allicin.
As soon as I entered the yard of the wounded soldiers' hospital, I heard Ye Heng cursing loudly, as if he was saying that someone had bandaged the wound incorrectly, and his words were very unpleasant.
Shen Ning knew that Xiaoyan didn't like her, so she didn't move forward, but just said that she needed a few people to help.
Ye Heng was about to yell at her from a distance, "What can I help you with? Can I help you peel garlic? If you want to open a restaurant in the city, or perform a shaman dance by the river, why are you getting in my way?"
Shen Ning repeatedly gave in, but the other party still pushed her nose and face. She smiled and asked, "Why is Doctor Ye so angry so early in the morning? Is his treatment not going well? Is he trying to use rage to cover up his incompetence?"
The doctors around looked at each other in silence.
Ye Heng was about to explode: "What did you say? Just say it again!"
He strode towards Shen Ning with a fierce momentum.
"Isn't it?"
Chen Ning smiled and said, "I just heard Doctor Ye say that many people have started to have high fevers. Why are you yelling at your colleagues here instead of saving them? Is anyone of them stopping you from saving them?"
"Everyone is worried about the patient's worsening condition and has done their best. How can you stand here and scold others?... Is this none of your business? Are you not responsible?"
Ye Heng blushed after being scolded by Shen Ning: "He made a mistake when changing the medicine and was not skilled. Shouldn't he be scolded?"
Chen Ning said, "Is he a novice or a veteran? If he's a novice, then you, Doctor Ye, weren't already proficient from the beginning, right? If he's a veteran, then these people are all under your management, Doctor Ye. If you're cursing and yelling at them now, you might as well teach them a lesson... Besides, did I provoke you?"
Ye Heng said angrily: "Everyone is already anxious and angry enough, and you still ask someone to pick garlic. Shouldn't you scold them?"
"How do you know I'm not saving people?" Shen Ning sneered.
Not wanting to waste more time with Ye Heng, Shen Ning called Eucommia and the others who had worked with her to make allicin yesterday: "Come with me, there should be some medicine over there that can be used."
After saying that, she turned and walked towards the backyard, and Du Zhong and his group hurriedly followed.
After Shen Ning and the others left, Ye Heng's aggressive attitude finally calmed down. After a pause, he walked up to the doctor he had just scolded and apologized in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry, I was too anxious just now..."
The young man didn't dare to say: "It's because I'm not good at learning."
Ye Heng shook his head: "The seriously ill have already started to have a high fever, and then their internal organs will fail. I, I can only watch them wailing but I can't save them. I have to watch them suffer and die. I..."
He lowered his head and covered his eyes with one hand, unable to speak.
The doctors nearby also fell silent.
They also understood Ye Heng's anxiety. Those soldiers with severe burns had begun to show signs of illness. According to experience, these people could not be saved.
It's a pity that they have to suffer so much before they die... Every time the dressing is changed, it's like being tortured to death, and after being tortured, they still die. No one can bear it.
One of them mustered up the courage and said, "Doctor Ye, those who took Young Master Ning's medicine yesterday all said that their pain had eased. Why don't we boil a large amount of medicine for them? At least, at least they will suffer less while they are alive."
Ye Heng suddenly remembered the potion from yesterday. He looked up and asked, "Are you sure that everyone who took the potion showed signs of relief from pain?"
Several people nodded.
Ye Heng pursed his lips and said, "Okay, let's ask the pharmacy to boil some medicine and give it to them first."
After a pause, he turned and walked towards the commander-in-chief Zhou Chenglu, ready to report to his superior: 60% of the wounded have started to have fever, and the situation will be more serious tomorrow. It will be difficult to save 40% of them.
Hearing Ye Heng's words, Zhou Chenglu stood up and asked, "40% can't be saved?"
He was somewhat distressed: "Is this your extraordinary medical skills?"
Ye Heng felt uncomfortable, but he was unwilling to give in after hearing this. He stiffened his neck and argued, "The burns this time are quite serious. Most of the patients are seriously injured. There is also iron sand and gunpowder on the wounds. The wounds are very traumatic after cleaning..."
Zhou Chenglu couldn't help but say, "This commander doesn't want to hear this. I'm handing the wounded over to you, and you're telling me you can't do it?"
Ye Heng's eyes were red. "Even if I invite my teacher to come, it won't work. The burns are too severe and they already have high fevers. Unless a god descends to earth."
Zhou Chenglu's heart began to chill, but then he suddenly remembered something: "Where is that Mr. Ning that the military advisor brought with him?"
Ye Heng snorted coldly: "He's looking for someone to peel garlic."
Peeling garlic?
Zhou Chenglu frowned, remembering that the military advisor had just mentioned that he wanted to renovate the doctor's residence, and also mentioned that his cousin had already made medicine that could save these wounded soldiers and it would be used soon.
After a pause, Zhou Chenglu said in a deep voice, "From now on, Doctor Ning will be in charge of the wounded unit. You go back and help him, and don't cause any trouble."
Ye Heng's eyes suddenly turned red with anger, and he gritted his teeth: "Unless he is a god."
Zhou Chenglu finally couldn't stand it anymore: "Get out."
Ye Heng turned around and walked away...
On the other side, Shen Ning was distributing the prepared allicin into medicine bowls, and told the dozen or so doctors to give it to the critically ill patients first.
"We're still working hard to make the medicine here. There will be more soon, so everyone can get some. Let's save the most important ones first."
At this time, a soldier ran in and delivered an order: From today on, Doctor Ning will be in charge of the wounded.
The doctors around looked at each other, and those who were originally hesitant about whether to follow Doctor Ning's arrangements immediately felt relieved.
However, just as the first batch of allicin was delivered from the pharmacy, a bang was suddenly heard at the gate of the courtyard.
Shen Ning was startled and looked up, only to see Xie Yuncheng, wearing silver armor, striding in with a group of people, his face ashen.
"I heard that you reported to the commander-in-chief that you couldn't even save 40% of my wounded men?"
Xie Yuncheng's face was cold and grim: "A bunch of good-for-nothings, what use are you to?"
"Thank you, Envoy, we..."
"Shut up, I don't want to listen to this useless nonsense, come here."
Xie Yuncheng drew his sword and pointed it at Shen Ning and the doctors around her: "Who is your medical officer? Stand up and die..."
Shen Ning, who had just become a medical officer for less than three minutes: ???
