309 Recovery
âThis thing can suppress the smallpox virus. Take it to Jiang Ying!â the emperor said.
âYes!â the guard said.
Yuan Hui was very worried. Smallpox was contagious. With Ning Yueâs 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 Yingâs 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 emperorâs guard. The guard shouted at the people in the room, âThe 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!â
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 Yingâs house. He shouted at the people inside, âIâm also here to deliver the medicine. The medicine is at the door. Please come out and get it!â
...
With that, Lian Xin was in no hurry to leave. Instead, he made sure that the guards at Jiang Yingâs 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, âTake good care of yourself.â
âLianxin, thank you,â Ning Yue said.
âWhy are you thanking me? Iâm just here to deliver the medicine,â Lian Xin said.
âIâll try it tonight. Iâll see if this medicine will work,â Ning Yue said.
Jiang Ying had already been mostly cured, but he couldnât 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, âPrincess, why donât you rest well? The heir is almost recovered. Weâll just watch.â
Ning Yue shook her head. âHeâs almost fine, but heâs still contagious now. You donât have experience. Iâm afraid youâll be infected if you take care of him.â
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 Yingâs smallpox had scabbed later.
It would be fine if it was scabbed.
...
In the evening, Ning Yue stretched and walked into Jiang Yingâs 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 Yingâs 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 Yingâs smallpox was man-made.
If it was man-made, who could it be?
After she left the Three Kingdoms Festival, Jiang Yingâs 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. âJiang Ying, youâre awake?â
âYueyue.â Jiang Ying was still very weak.
âJiang Ying, donât talk too much now. You have to recuperate more,â Ning Yue said.
âWhatâs wrong with me?â Jiang Ying asked.
...
âYouâve just been sick for a few days. When you recover, Iâll tell you slowly.â With that, Ning Yue instructed someone to cook some porridge for Jiang Ying. âYou just woke up. Porridge is easier to digest. Donât be in a hurry to nourish yourself.â
âNing Yue, how many days have I slept?â Jiang Ying asked.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âMany days,â Ning Yue said.
Jiang Ying looked at Ning Yueâs thin face and knew that she must have been very tired recently.
He raised his hand to touch Ning Yueâs 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?
âIâm not well yet! You shouldnât have come!â Jiang Ying said.
âDonât be agitated. Thereâs nothing to be afraid of with smallpox. Arenât you fine now?â Ning Yue pulled down Jiang Yingâs sleeve. âDonât worry. Itâs scabbed over now. Itâs fine.â
âYueyue, are you alright? Where are the others?â Jiang Ying asked nervously. He was afraid that he would implicate many people with smallpox.
âEveryone is fine,â Ning Yue said.
At this moment, a servant brought in a bowl of porridge. Ning Yue took it and asked the servant to leave.
...
âCome, have some porridge first.â Ning Yue scooped up a spoonful of porridge and handed it to Jiang Ying.
âDuring this period of time, you canât be exposed to the wind or eat anything too strong. Otherwise, it wonât be good for your recovery,â Ning Yue reminded Jiang Ying.
Jiang Ying saw that Ning Yue had lost weight. He could imagine how hard it was for her.
