I played as an assistant in ancient times

Chapter 188 rhetorical question

Shen Xiaoye watched the doctor cleaning Aruhhan's wound again. She noticed that the wound was bigger than before and she was punished.

No wonder he fainted again before he even walked out of the City God Temple and had to be carried here on wooden boards by two Ti riders.

"Miss Shen, why don't you two borrow the room here to rest for a while." A Tiqi noticed her gaze and suggested with a smile on his face.

Of course Shen Xiaoye would not refuse, and was soon arranged to stay in a room in the backyard with her cousin.

She fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow, but Shen Cungeng couldn't sleep. He kept watching and protecting Xiaoye who was sitting next door.

After such a tense night, he still felt weak even after washing his face with cold water.

Then he turned around and met Agula's angry eyes, and saw a stern-faced Tiqi following not far behind him. The sleepyhead was instantly scared away.

He stroked his forehead and said, "Agula, scaring people can kill them."

"You actually knocked me out, and I still considered you a friend.

And Shen Xiaoye is just like a wolf cub, he doesn't recognize his relatives." Agula's resentment broke through the sky.

Shen Cungeng wanted to touch his forehead again after putting down his hand. "Don't use allusions carelessly. You are not one of our relatives."

"Agula, are you awake? Are you hungry?" Shen Xiaoye came over with a food box. She found one of the three Tiqi early in the morning and said she wanted to buy breakfast.

I didn’t expect that the store would deliver the goods to me without me having to go out. It seems like this is compensation?

She also asked: "Is your father awake now?"

"Hmph!" When Agula saw her coming back, he flicked his sleeves and left. Well, if he wasn't wearing a narrow-sleeved robe, he would have looked quite imposing.

As soon as he left, the Tiqi who was watching him also left.

Shen Cungeng took a deep breath and said, "Xiaoye, we have to go home today, right?"

“I just said, I’ll go back after dinner.

However, they will send someone to follow until Guard Xia comes to take over." Shen Xiaoye went to the kitchen and set out breakfast.

After the two siblings finished their meal, they left under Agula's angry gaze. However, the people following them were not from the Guard Bureau, but two yamen runners sent by the government office.

When they came to the clinic where Shen Cunhui was staying, Shen Changshun and his wife were frightened when they saw two officers.

Especially Bai, "Xiao Ye, Geng Ge'er, we will go back today to take care of the patient." No need to report to the government, right? Being unfilial is a serious crime.

Shen Xiaoye didn't react to why the two of them lost their composure. She said she just came to see Cousin Hui and then left.

Mrs. Bai was unwilling to believe it. After being scolded by her parents last night, she found out that the reason why her son was knocked unconscious had spread to all the neighbors.

So when she saw the brother and sister again, she took the initiative to ask the whole family to go back to Jiuli Village together. After all, her eldest son was just lying in the car and would not be affected.

The crucial county exam is in February, and Huiger will take it in his hometown, Linghe County.

Shen Xiaoye and his sister couldn't understand her anxiety, so they went to the inn to get their carriage and horses, and tried to get back to Jiuli Village before dark.

As soon as they entered the village, the sound of drums could be heard from half of the village. A moment later, everyone saw a group of young people dancing with a long dragon made of bamboo and linen.

Although crude, the dragon head and body are depicted quite realistically, and it is very beautiful to see a group of young people dancing to the beat of the drums.

Ernan: "The day after tomorrow is the Dragon Raising its Head on February 2nd.

When I was a child, my favorite thing was to run and play with the dragon dance team.

Grandma and grandpa also gave me a small one, big sister, let's go find them quickly."

The two sisters jumped out of the car and ran home. Shen Xiaoye nodded to her cousin Hui and winked at Shen Cungeng to go around the door of her great-grandfather's house.

It is better for the old couple to believe that their children and grandchildren come back voluntarily.

When Shen Xiaoye and his sister returned home with the two yamen runners, they saw their grandfather drinking medicine with a bitter face.

"Grandpa, just swallow it in one gulp and you won't have to suffer again." Shen Xiaoye hugged the little black cat that pounced on him, and spoke while listening to the kitten's voice transmission.

It said, "Your grandpa had a nightmare last night. He called Tian'er one moment and Little Leopard the next. He woke up and almost fell down while drinking water."

Grandfather Shen Shanyou took the warm water handed to him by his grandson and took two gulps. "It's too bitter. I don't know how much Coptis chinensis is put into this medicine. If Sui Ge'er were here, he would definitely not allow so much.

Xiaoye, your eldest uncle said that you went to Beijing. Have you met your fourth uncle?

Didn’t you tell me that I’m not feeling well? I’m telling you so you don’t disturb him.”

"Good medicine tastes bitter. And Xiaoye hasn't come to Beijing yet. She went to pick up Geng Ge'er to look after you.

Look, you poured out half of the medicine last night and forgot what we said today.

Doctor Ge specifically explained that the dosage of the first few doses of medicine would be larger, but the effect would be the best.

What is the saying? The disease is gone like a thread being pulled out. " Grandma Lin reminded him again, she waved to her eldest son and asked him to receive the two officials.

Shen Cungeng looked at his grandfather worriedly, then turned his gaze to his mother.

Huang nodded slightly at him, indicating that she had already told the old man about his condition.

Alas, Shen Xiaoye recalled that her grandfather used to be reluctant to waste even a penny, but now he was secretly pouring out medicine. It must be really hard for him.

She squatted down and asked, "Grandpa, if you really can't drink it, can we go to Beijing to ask the imperial physician to prescribe medicine?"

Shen Shanyou shook his head: "No, the imperial physician can't be invited just by asking for him.

The old doctor you know should be used at the critical moment of saving a life. My illness is not serious, it's just that I'm old and drank too much. I'll change it in the future.

Besides, Sui Ge'er is very busy, don't disturb him."

He didn't know if it was the effect of the medicine, but his mind suddenly became clear.

Shen Xiaoye thought to himself that grandpa mentioned fourth uncle several times, but in fact it was because he was sick and missed his youngest son.

She said, "My fourth uncle has sent me a message. He will be home as soon as he finishes his work.

However, if you continue to take these Chinese medicines, perhaps they will have many magical benefits. "

"He said he was coming back? Well, it's almost time for a rest day." After saying that, he actually tilted his head and fell asleep.

"This medicine?" Shen Xiaoye couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Lin said, "It helps you sleep a lot. Doctor Ge said your grandpa needs more sleep."

Shen Xiaoye doesn't know medicine, but the correct answer is to rest more when you are sick. She can only accept this statement, "Grandma, can I find a way to get my fourth uncle to take care of Grandpa for a few days? He is very worried."

While Lin was thinking about it, in the camp outside the capital, Shen Changsui and his team finished their training early and returned to the capital.

Lu Guan pulled his horse closer to him and asked in a low voice, "Are we going to set out early?"

“No, although the civilians from other provinces are in place, the entire Shuntian Prefecture has not moved.

When we go deep into the northern desert to wipe out the enemy, food and grass are the most important, and the date of departure will not be changed at will." Shen Changsui said with certainty.

Lu Guan thought for a moment and said, "How about I go and ask what happened in the court?"

Shen Changsui glanced at him and asked, "Can you find out the real big thing now?"

"Alas, it's uncomfortable to be kept in the dark." Lu Guan said angrily.

But the two men did not expect that as soon as they returned to the Five Military Camps, they received news that Timur, Chagatai and other countries had sent envoys to pay tribute.
