309 Recovery
“This thing can suppress the smallpox virus. Take it to Jiang Ying!” the emperor said.
“Yes!” the guard said.
Yuan Hui was very worried. Smallpox was contagious. With Ning Yue’s personality, she would definitely take care of Jiang Ying personally.
What if Ning Yue was also infected by Jiang Ying?
However, Ning Yue did not know that the emperor and Yuan Hui were anxious. She had gave Jiang Ying modern medicine and coupled with acupuncture, the smallpox virus had already dissipated a lot.
Jiang Ying’s high fever had already subsided, making Ning Yue very happy.
Three days later, the guard also brought the medicine given by the emperor to the entrance of the Jiang Ying family.
Coincidentally, Lian Xin had also rushed over. However, Lian Xin was a step slower than the emperor’s guard. The guard shouted at the people in the room, “The emperor sent me to deliver medicine to Prince Jiang Ying. The medicine is at the door of your room. Come out and get it yourself later!”
The guard was also worried that he would be infected. He left after putting down the medicine.
Lian Xin imitated the guard and placed the medicine at the entrance of Jiang Ying’s house. He shouted at the people inside, “I’m also here to deliver the medicine. The medicine is at the door. Please come out and get it!”
With that, Lian Xin was in no hurry to leave. Instead, he made sure that the guards at Jiang Ying’s house brought the things in.
After a while, Ning Yue came out. She saw Lian Xin from afar and he gestured for her to take the medicine. He said, “Take good care of yourself.”
“Lianxin, thank you,” Ning Yue said.
“Why are you thanking me? I’m just here to deliver the medicine,” Lian Xin said.
“I’ll try it tonight. I’ll see if this medicine will work,” Ning Yue said.
Jiang Ying had already been mostly cured, but he couldn’t be bothered to mention his condition to outsiders, so after talking to Lian Xin, she persuaded her to go back first and continue working.
After she entered, Ah Da also advised her, “Princess, why don’t you rest well? The heir is almost recovered. We’ll just watch.”
Ning Yue shook her head. “He’s almost fine, but he’s still contagious now. You don’t have experience. I’m afraid you’ll be infected if you take care of him.”
Seeing that he could not persuade Ning Yue, Ah Da stopped talking.
Ning Yue narrowed her eyes in the hall. She would go and see if Jiang Ying’s smallpox had scabbed later.
It would be fine if it was scabbed.
In the evening, Ning Yue stretched and walked into Jiang Ying’s room to check on him.
It was finally scabbed over!
Ning Yue smiled and hurriedly smashed and buried everything Jiang Ying had used. Then, she burned Jiang Ying’s clothes and the clothes she had been wearing for the past few days.
It was also at this moment that Ning Yue began to wonder if Jiang Ying’s smallpox was man-made.
If it was man-made, who could it be?
After she left the Three Kingdoms Festival, Jiang Ying’s health deteriorated. Moreover, when Jiang Ying returned to Laifu Village, Princess Lotus actually came!
Just as Ning Yue was thinking, Jiang Ying woke up.
Ning Yue was overjoyed and went forward to call him. “Jiang Ying, you’re awake?”
“Yueyue.” Jiang Ying was still very weak.
“Jiang Ying, don’t talk too much now. You have to recuperate more,” Ning Yue said.
“What’s wrong with me?” Jiang Ying asked.
“You’ve just been sick for a few days. When you recover, I’ll tell you slowly.” With that, Ning Yue instructed someone to cook some porridge for Jiang Ying. “You just woke up. Porridge is easier to digest. Don’t be in a hurry to nourish yourself.”
“Ning Yue, how many days have I slept?” Jiang Ying asked.
“Many days,” Ning Yue said.
Jiang Ying looked at Ning Yue’s thin face and knew that she must have been very tired recently.
He raised his hand to touch Ning Yue’s face, but saw that the acne marks on his hand had not disappeared.
Jiang Ying lifted his clothes to look at his arms. He was a little shocked. This was smallpox! Why was Ning Yue here?
“I’m not well yet! You shouldn’t have come!” Jiang Ying said.
“Don’t be agitated. There’s nothing to be afraid of with smallpox. Aren’t you fine now?” Ning Yue pulled down Jiang Ying’s sleeve. “Don’t worry. It’s scabbed over now. It’s fine.”
“Yueyue, are you alright? Where are the others?” Jiang Ying asked nervously. He was afraid that he would implicate many people with smallpox.
“Everyone is fine,” Ning Yue said.
At this moment, a servant brought in a bowl of porridge. Ning Yue took it and asked the servant to leave.
“Come, have some porridge first.” Ning Yue scooped up a spoonful of porridge and handed it to Jiang Ying.
“During this period of time, you can’t be exposed to the wind or eat anything too strong. Otherwise, it won’t be good for your recovery,” Ning Yue reminded Jiang Ying.
Jiang Ying saw that Ning Yue had lost weight. He could imagine how hard it was for her.
