[Farming] Orc's Little Silver Rabbit

Chapter 53 Shen Xi Is Sick

When Eli brought Noah over, Shen Xi struggled to sit up from under the quilt, pulled up the quilt to wrap herself tightly, and was embarrassed to Noah and didn't know what to say.Is he going to say that they did too much last night and forgot to clean things out, so now they are weak and have a low-grade fever?

Noah seemed to see his embarrassment clearly, and smiled gently: "It's normal for this to happen after a newlywed. You don't have to worry. Generally speaking, with healing herbs, you will be fine soon." As he spoke, he sat on the edge of the bed, put down his usual herbal medicine box, stretched out his hand, touched Shen Xi's forehead, and tested the temperature.He asked Shen Xi to stick out his tongue for him to check, and finally felt his pulse carefully for a while, and said, "It's the same as the reaction of ordinary females after they get married, drink Tianxiansan passed down from the ancestors of the Moon Clan, three times a day, one bowl a day, Hold on for seven days."

"No way? I'm going to be sick for seven days..." Shen Xi said weakly, his eyes full of helplessness.

"No," Noah reassured him: "Most people will get better in 2-5 days, this is a normal phenomenon, don't worry too much."

"Well, thank you." Shen Xi could only nod his head, the low fever made him not in good spirits, he was sleepy and just wanted to sleep.

"Then I'm leaving, you have a good rest." Noah said to Eli: "Follow me back to get the herbs."

Eli paid a silver coin, and soon came back with many small packages of herbs. He placed the herbs neatly on the desk in the bedroom, and when he turned around, he saw Shen Xi leaning on the head of the bed and looking at him quietly, with a pale face. It's heartbreaking.Eli walked over, sat on the head of the bed, gently wrapped him in his arms, and let him lean on his thick shoulders.And help him pull the quilt carefully, so that the back and shoulders are not exposed to the cool air. "Are you sleepy?" He lowered his head and gently kissed Shen Xi's hazy black eyes.

"En." Shen Xi nodded, with a nasal sound in his voice, which sounded like he was being coquettish: "But I'm hungry, and I smell the aroma of chicken soup, did you cook it just now?"

"Yes." Eli also felt that the chicken soup was not as hot as before, so he brought it over and put it on Shen Xi's lips.Shen Xi was about to reach out to catch it, but was held back by Eli: "Don't move, what should I do if I get cold after taking off the quilt?" Just now Noah told him that Shen Xi's resistance will be very weak these days, so he has to be careful Don't catch a cold, so Eli pays special attention.

Shen Xifang wanted to say that he was not that weak, but when he raised his head, he met Eli's firm eyes.Anyway, he was exhausted, so he drank it from Eli's hand, and asked while drinking, "When did you learn to do it? I didn't know you could do this before."

"I learned from your usual appearance, and the taste is much worse." Eli can't control the heat and the amount of seasoning.

Shen Xi also felt that the taste of the chicken soup was bland, probably because the salt was added less.He tried to take a bite of the chicken nugget, but it didn't taste much, but he ate it as if nothing had happened, and drank all the hot chicken soup before lying down again.After I was full, my body was warm, and my sleepiness began to evaporate again.

Seeing his sleepy eyes, Eli gently patted him on the shoulder to lull him to sleep: "Go to sleep for a while, it will be much better."

Shen Xiqiang raised his spirits and asked, "What about you? Do you want to come up to sleep?" He gently held Eli's big hand and didn't let go.

"I'm going to decoct the medicine." Eli looked at him softly, "I'll see you fall asleep before going, sleep."

Only then did Shen Xi close his eyes in peace, and after a while, his breathing became even.Eli looked at his sleeping face for a long time, and then took a packet of herbs to fry.He didn't know this kind of work, but Noah thoughtfully wrote the steps of decoction on a certain piece of paper and attached it to a certain package of herbs, so Eli followed the above steps to wash, soak, and boil After that, the small fire slowly boiled.The smell of herbs was particularly pungent, so he closed his sense of smell, sat in front of the stove and watched the fire, so as not to overcook or not cook enough.

So when Shen Xi woke up from a heavy sleep, what appeared in front of him in time was a bowl of steaming herbs.He covered his nose and turned his head, said with a bitter face, "Can I stop drinking? I really feel better..."

Eli thought for a while, put down the bowl, picked a bunch of fresh plantains from the banana tree outside the window, and said, "If it's bitter, eat some plantains after drinking, you won't feel bitter anymore, and I added sugar in it, It won't be too bitter."

Shen Xi knew that boiling herbal medicine was very troublesome. Although he said so, he would not let down Eli's intentions no matter what, so he simply pinched his nose, took the medicine bowl, and wanted to drink it all at once, but in I was stimulated by the strong bitter taste while gulping, and choked on half of the drink.He hastily pushed the half-drinked medicine bowl into Eli's hand, grabbed the plantain beside him and stuffed it into his mouth frantically.

After eating two in one go, Shen Xi's wrinkled bitter gourd face relaxed slightly, and he said with a mournful face, "Eli, prepare me a cup of sugar water, otherwise I really don't have the courage to drink the half bowl..." Even After eating two plantains, the smell of medicine still lingered in my mouth, and I could feel the bitterness in my throat when I breathed.

Yi Lai smiled slightly, raised his hand and gently wiped off the medicine dregs on his lips, got up and washed the sugar water back, he put the medicine bowl by Shen Xi's lips who refused to drink medicine for so long, and said in a seductive tone Said: "After drinking this, I will pick strawberries for you."

"Really?" Shen Xi said pleasantly, "Can I drink it after you pick it?"

"No, hurry up and take medicine to get better soon." Eli pinched his soft face, he still liked Shen Xi's energetic appearance, such a pale and feeble appearance really made people feel distressed.Seeing Shen Xi lowering his head dejectedly, Eli couldn't bear it anymore, so he could only say, "I'll be right back." He walked out the door, quickly transformed into a beast shape, and followed the location in his memory to the strawberry he picked the last time. place to fly to.

Shen Xi sat on the bedside alone, staring at the half bowl of black Chinese medicine hesitantly: Am I drinking it?Or not to drink?Did Eli actually pick strawberries?I'm really just joking, I don't want to make unreasonable demands...

He stared at the medicine bowl in a daze for a while, unexpectedly, within a few minutes, Eli strode in with a handful of wet strawberries, and the juicy strawberries were dripping wetly in his palm. water comes.

Shen Xi asked in surprise: "So fast? Where did you find it?"

"It's in the woods next to them, but the number is small. I'll go to the back mountain to look for them tomorrow, and there should be more." Most of the strawberries in the woods next to them should be picked by the females of the Moon Clan. Fortunately, these strawberries The place where it grows is relatively hidden. When Eli went to pick it, it hadn't been picked yet.He took one of the most juicy and brought it to Shen Xi's lips, and was satisfied to see him eat it happily.

The taste of strawberries is the sweetest, it melts in the mouth, and after eating one, the bitterness in the mouth is gone, only the fragrance is full of mouth.Shen Xi picked up the medicine bowl that was still warm, and gulped down the medicine juice.As soon as he finished drinking, Eli fed the strawberry to his lips in time.

Shen Xi looked at Eli with full eyes, and suddenly felt that the smell of medicine was not so unbearable.He couldn't help but said, "Eli, you are so kind to me." He never thought that besides his parents, there would be someone in this world who would take care of him like this.

"What silly things?" Eli sighed softly. He sat on the bed and hugged Shen Xi in his arms, kissing his forehead lightly: "You want to get better soon, you know?"

"Well," Shen Xi nodded, and found a comfortable position to nest in Eli's arms: "Eli, can you read to me?" He wasn't sleepy anymore, but he was still weak. No matter what, I can't exert any strength, and I can't get up.

Of course Eli would not refuse his request, went to the desk to fetch two books, took off his boots and went to bed, leaned against the head of the bed, let Shen Xi lean on his generous chest, and read every word.

Under Eli's meticulous care, Shen Xi recovered very quickly. Two days later, his body became lighter again, his fever subsided, and he didn't seem to have any sequelae.He originally wanted to stop drinking the bitter Tianxiansan after he recovered, but Noah said that as soon as he stopped taking the medicine, he would easily feel tired and get sick again and again.In view of the experience of countless predecessors, Shen Xi had no choice but to continue to drink the medicine with a bitter face.

He fell ill for two days and didn't make any cakes, but the next day was the market, and the plan to take the cakes to the market to try and sell them also went bankrupt.Shen Xi had no choice but to tell himself that there was no rush, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.He had a good night's sleep that night, and took Eli to the market the next morning.

The market is still so lively, selling everything.Seeing a female selling freshly picked strawberries, Eli bought a whole basket for Shen Xi.Shen Xi carried the bamboo basket and ate while walking. Thanks to Eli's support, he was able to shuttle through the crowd.He wanted to buy a big, fluffy feather pillow. Although Eli's arm was fine, he didn't want to sleep on Eli's arm all night. What if it caused Eli's blood stasis?

There were indeed goose feather pillows sold in the market, so Shen Xi bought two big pillows and put them in the interspatial ring.I took Eli to buy curtains again. As summer approached, the morning sun became more and more dazzling. I had to find a curtain to cover it to sleep in.Their window screens are light green, so Shen Xi also chose a green curtain with a green bamboo pattern.After buying and paying, when he turned his head, he saw a stall selling very small branches on the opposite side.

"What is this?" Shen Xi pulled Yilai's arm and asked curiously.

"It's a willow branch, for brushing your teeth." Eli glanced at it and said.

The Moon people have various ways of washing their mouths. Some people prefer to rinse their mouths with tea, some people use strong salt water, and some people think that rinsing their mouths is not enough. White and fragrant.Eli was used to gargling with strong tea before, and Shen Xi did as the Romans did.

"But it's just a simple branch, how do I brush my teeth?" The toothbrush for brushing teeth should at least have soft fine hairs on the front, right?

"Bite the front end of the willow branch until it is soft, and then dip it in the medicine and rub the teeth. It's about the Moon Clan's new teeth brushing method in the past ten years." Eli explained.

"Then let me buy one and try it? This is very similar to the way we brush our teeth in our hometown." Shen Xi was eager to try.
