keep this doctor

The night gradually deepened.

The hustle and bustle of the inn all day finally quieted down, shrouded in the sky of softly falling snowflakes.

Shen Ji didn't go back, he stayed in Yong'an Inn.How could he actually walk away?The third brother was in doubt about his life and death, lying quietly on the bed.

Since the two met, it was the first time for Shen Ji to see such a weak and embarrassing side of the third brother.

"Xiao Ji, come here, this is pork belly stewed chicken and rice cakes specially prepared by the kitchen for you. You haven't eaten dinner yet, eat quickly." Wang Quan looked at Shen who was staying in the third master's room every step of the way. Ji, was somewhat moved in his heart - although he had never looked down upon Shen Ji before, privately thought that he was spineless, greedy for vanity, and leaned next to Jiang Feng.But now that the third master is in trouble, anyway, he didn't stand by and watch, so he was kind and righteous.

Shen Ji withdrew the palm that was testing Jiang Feng's body temperature from his forehead, he got up, went to the wooden basin to wash his hands, and thanked very gratefully:

"Thank Uncle Wang for remembering, I'm really hungry."

Wang Quan responded with a smile: "It should be, you are willing to take care of the third master. He must be very happy when he wakes up. We all know how the third master treats you and how good he is to you. It's rare that you are so affectionate, and the third master didn't look at it." Look away."

Shen Ji sat down hungry, smelling the tempting aroma of chicken soup from pork belly and the grainy fragrance of white rice cakes. Just as he was serving a bowl of soup, he happened to hear Wang Quan's undisguised sigh.Shen Ji immediately raised his head in surprise, and tentatively said, "Third Brother and I are good brothers. He also helped me a lot before. Third Brother treats all friends very well..."

Wang Quan rolled up his sleeves, squinted his eyes and lowered his voice, and further exposed it with great interest: "Oh, the third master treats you differently, why are you his ordinary friend and brother... I have known the third master for so many years, but I haven't found out Which friend or brother does he care about so much, you don't have to worry, my old man is not that ignorant and pedantic person, as long as we get along well, a man can live a lifetime just like a man..."

Shen Ji smiled awkwardly, obviously he was extremely uncomfortable dealing with such an enlightened old man as Long Yang, but he was also happy at the same time, gratified that he was with the third brother, and there were people who supported him.Thinking of this level, his smile widened a bit, pushed the rice cake over, and replied softly:

"Uncle Wang really sees it clearly, and the younger generation admires it... This rice cake is really good, would you like to try it? Seeing that you have been running for a long time today, the old man, right? When the third brother wakes up, I will definitely tell him , Let him thank you well."

Wang Quan saw that after Shen Ji vigorously scraped the wound clean and drank the medicine, Jiang Feng no longer had the same convulsions and groans as before, obviously improved.So he was definitely willing to work harder to build a good relationship with Shen Ji - it's human nature, after all the owners of the inn, except for their eldest brother Zhou Ye who got married, the rest were not married.Although Shen Ji is a man, the third master has hinted several times: Shen Ji is my wife, please take care of me.

"Hehehe... My old man has lived for most of his life. I haven't seen anything before. The goodness of Longyang depends on fate. You can eat slowly. I had dinner early in the morning. Oh, I really ran away today. After traveling half of Hezhou City, I'm a little tired, so I'll go to rest first, and just speak out if I have something to do."

Shen Ji got up quickly, sent the steward to the door, thanked him again, and watched him leave.

After the door was closed and bolted, he sat down again and drank a bowl of soup just now, feeling as if he had come alive.Filled another bowl, picked some chicken and tripe shreds, thought for a while, and sat down in front of Jiang Feng's bed, put the soup bowl in front of his nose, coaxing softly:

"Third brother, get up and drink soup... Can you hear me? This is pork belly stewed with chicken soup, with some peppercorns to remove the fishy smell and warm the stomach, it is very delicious... Hey, you haven't eaten for a few days. Hungry? Can you hear me..."

Shen Ji was full of hope and talked to himself for a long time, but he didn't get a response.Although he saw that the third brother's condition had improved, the patient was still drowsy after all. The illness came like a mountain, and the illness went like a thread. Come.

After finishing the soup, he turned back and brought the plate of rice cakes over, picked up a piece, and watched the third brother eat the cakes.

"You only drank rice soup tonight. You must not be full. If you wake up now, I will cook you delicious meat porridge..."

"..." Still did not get a response, Shen Ji finally shut up.He smiled wryly and put the rice cake back on the table.Check Jiang Feng's body temperature again, and help him wipe off his sweat from time to time.

"Hey... Tomorrow, tomorrow you must wake up, let you sleep now." The night is getting thicker and thicker, and only the occasional sound of the watch outside can be faintly heard.Shen Ji was so sleepy that his eyelids were clenched and he yawned continuously.He visited Jiang Feng for the last time, helped him cover the quilt, and then fell down on the low couch that Wang Quan ordered someone to move next to him. He fell into a deep sleep not long after lying down with his clothes rolled up under the quilt.

In the early morning of the next day, Shen Ji was awakened by light but continuous knocks on the door. He fell asleep very late and didn't have a good rest at all, but as soon as he opened his eyes, his mind was filled with things to do. full.He immediately lifted the quilt and got up, and went to open the door first.

"Xiao Ji, did you sleep well last night? Is the quilt enough? The low couch is indeed a bit small, and the one I found just now is not suitable. I have wronged you." Wang Quan was also worried about Jiang Feng, for fear of falling asleep Wake up, something bad happened to the patient's condition.

Shen Ji walked in and replied: "I slept pretty well, what's wrong with that, it's good to have a bed and a quilt to sleep on." Before he finished speaking, he had already sat by Jiang Feng's bed, observing After looking at his complexion, he checked the wound again, and finally took his pulse carefully.

Wang Quan couldn't hide his worry and went up to take a closer look. Although he was not a doctor, he looked better when he saw the third master's complexion - his complexion was no longer so flushed, and his breathing was no longer so rapid, fast and slow.He spoke cautiously:

"Xiao Ji, how is the third master? I see that he is getting better. Do you want to wash the wound again today?"

Shen Ji lightly stuffed the third brother's hand back into the quilt, and couldn't hide his happy response: "It's really getting better... But, but the third brother is still awake, we can't take it lightly, we don't need to wash the wound today , it’s enough for me to change his dressing alone. It’s just..."

Wang Quan noticed his hesitation, and immediately asked: "Just what? No matter what you say, it's okay to say it, don't be polite."

"Hmm... Uncle Wang, you know it. I'm working in Renjitang now. I have to watch my third brother for the past two days. I won't dare to leave for a while. Can you...?"

Seeing Shen Ji's apologetic expression for causing trouble to others, Wang Quan felt more at ease, he slapped his thigh, and blamed heartily: "Hey, what's the matter, I'll call a guy to go to Renji Hall later Wouldn’t it be enough to take a leave of absence for you? The next time something like this happens, just speak up directly, don’t be embarrassed.”

Shen Ji rubbed his nose, smiled, and said: "Uncle Wang, I'll be busy... Actually, I still want to write a note. After the little brother asks me for leave, I will slip the note into the crack of my door along the way." I’m worried that my elder brother won’t be able to find me when he returns home.”

Wang Quan agreed, coming with worry, but can leave with peace of mind.He got up and patted Shen Ji on the shoulder, and sighed: "Fortunately, I went to find you. If the third master is allowed to spend so much time, I'm really afraid that something will happen to him... Oh, God bless... It's okay, I Go down and ask someone to bring you breakfast, Xiao Ji, after you write the note, just tell the guy." After speaking, he walked briskly and prepared to leave with a smile on his face.

"Hey Uncle Wang, wait!" Shen Ji hastily said to keep people away.

"What's wrong?" Wang Quan stopped and turned around.

Shen Ji stepped forward and sincerely begged: "Uncle Wang, if you can contact Second Brother Zuo, Sixth Brother Angkor, or anyone in the Northern Army, please help me find out. Is it okay? He is my eldest brother, he left with the third brother that day, but I haven't seen him yet..."

Wang Quan's eyes lit up immediately, and he thought to himself that this kid's eldest brother is still a general, that is really not easy.He hastily agreed: "Is Mu Dongmu the general? Xiao Ji, don't worry, no matter which club I contact, I will help you inquire, or I can ask the military men I know well?"

"Thank you so much, Uncle Wang, please remember to tell me if you have any news." Shen Ji was overjoyed, his network is definitely not as rich as the old man in front of him.

**

Today is still a busy day, Shen Ji has to decoct the medicine regularly, and carefully feed the third brother to drink it; he also goes to the kitchen to get rice and meat back to the house, boils soft and rotten gruel, and patiently lets the third brother swallow it.

But after waiting anxiously until night, Jiang Feng still fell asleep.

"Third brother, wake up quickly, I don't know what to do if I keep falling asleep like this, I will really be scared to death by you..." Shen Ji held a hot towel with a sad face, and wiped the sweat from Jiang Feng's body over and over again .He checked the wound, it was in a normal healing state, and his body temperature was slowly dropping, but he was still not awake, which made him very panicked.

Shen Ji sighed, twisted the towel again, and began to help Jiang Feng wipe his hands.

The third brother's palm is wide, and the long joints of the fingers are hard, covered with calluses and various cuts and scars.Shen Ji tried his best to calm down, and slowly rubbed fingers one by one. Looking back to see that the door was closed, he couldn't help but bow his head and kiss gently one by one finger.

After kissing his fingers, the sad and worried Shen Ji threw the towel aside, bent down, held Jiang Feng's head with both hands, and kissed his forehead, nose tip and lips softly.

——If he had been so proactive in the past, he would have been eagerly responded by the third brother, but now, he was the only one moving, and Jiang Feng didn't respond at all.

Shen Ji hugged the third brother's neck in frustration, put his head on the side of his neck, and cursed bitterly into Jiang Feng's ear: "Sleeping for so many days and still not waking up? Look at how thin you are going to be!" Is it like this? You are like this, you don’t take small wounds to heart, I told you long ago, as long as you get hurt, you have to see a doctor... Oh, I’m really angry right now... You better wake up quickly, Otherwise I will be even more angry..."

Jiang Feng felt sore all over his body, his mind was chaotic and painful, and he couldn't think at all.When he was in a daze, he still wondered: Am I dreaming?Still have a fever?

When he woke up the next day after returning to the inn, he found that he had a high fever. The inn steward called a doctor for him. After drinking the medicine, he felt so hot that he was about to catch fire, and fell asleep unconsciously.Until he felt a sharp pain in his waist, as if someone was trying to cut his flesh, the pain made him want to yell, but he just couldn't move.

Up to now, after drinking several doses of medicines for the symptoms, he listened to the nagging, sad and frightened whispers that kept coming from his ears——

"...Hey, I'm really angry. Why didn't you go home when you were injured? Instead, you hid in the inn? I'm obviously a doctor. It seems that you don't trust me..."

Jiang Feng heard Shen Ji's voice, and he retorted in his heart: No, no, of course I trust you.

Shen Ji continued to vent: "...It seems that I have a too good temper, and I didn't ask you anything. When you wake up...huh..."

Jiang Feng tried hard to speak, but found that he couldn't make a sound, so he could only move his lips slightly.But then Shen Ji began to suppress and cry in his ear, pitifully, beating herself while crying.With heartache and anxiety, Jiang Feng finally opened his eyes and gave a weak voice of comfort:

"do not Cry."
