Chapter 156 Why Didn’t I See You in the Shop?
"Weiwei, why are you here?" Yang Biao let go of Qin Xiaoran's hand, turned around and got off the carriage, and walked towards Xia Weiwei.
"Yang Biao, who is she?" The sight of the two holding hands was beyond Xia Weiwei's expectation and hurt her eyes. After years of emotional education under Liu's guidance, she still kept smiling and asked Yang Biao about Qin Xiaoran's identity with a calm expression.
"Oh, let me introduce her to you. She is Qin Xiaoran." Yang Biao turned to look at Qin Xiaoran who was also walking towards him and introduced her, "Xiaoran, this is Xia Weiwei."
Qin Xiaoran nodded and smiled at her, as a greeting. This was the first time they met today, but Yang Biao had told her before that Xia Weiwei had helped them when they first came to the city. However, he did not tell her that he later signed the marriage certificate and married her.
Xia Weiwei's education as a lady since childhood made her not carefully look at the girl standing in front of her. However, with just this one glance, she secretly sighed that there was such a beautiful girl in the world.
"Yang Biao, why haven't I seen you in the shop for so many days?" Where have you been? Xia Weiwei has been managing two silk shops or learning jade making in Yuanyang Jinlou for the past ten days. Of course, she also came to Xingning Street just to meet Yang Biao.
"Oh, I'm back to Wenchang County." Yang Biao saw that she was still standing there, not looking very well, and he couldn't help but reach out and touch her forehead, "Are you feeling unwell?"
"I'm fine, you go ahead, I'm leaving." Xia Weiwei had been waiting for Yang Biao for so long, but when she saw him, she saw him being intimate with another girl. It was unbearable for her, and she just wanted to escape from here as soon as possible.
"Your forehead is so hot, Ji Lang, go get a doctor!" Yang Biao touched her forehead and knew that she had a fever. In ancient times, medical conditions were backward and a small cold could be fatal. He was anxious and didn't say much. He just picked her up and put her into the carriage.
"Doctor, how is she? Is her condition serious?" Seeing the doctor finish taking Xia Weiwei's pulse, Yang Biao walked forward nervously and asked about the patient's condition.
"Madam, there is nothing wrong with your health. It is mainly because of liver qi deficiency and lack of sleep in recent days, which has caused the fever caused by liver qi stagnation." The doctor took the paper and pen on the table and sat down to write a prescription. "Here is the prescription. Prepare the medicine according to this. Boil three bowls of water into one bowl of water and give it to the patient three times a day. Within five days, you will be back to normal!"
"Oh, thank you." Yang Biao took the prescription, told Ji Lang to send the doctor back, and went to the pharmacy to get the medicine, and brought it over after it was boiled.
"Xiao Ran, you've been sitting in the carriage for so many days, go and have a rest." Seeing Qin Xiaoran still standing in the room, Yang Biao asked her to go back to their room.
"Cai Ping, go to the well and get a basin of water." It would take time to get the medicine back, and we didn't know how long Xia Weiwei had had a fever, so we should first give her some physical cooling treatment.
"Master, the water is here." Caiping placed the water on the wooden rack and stood aside waiting to be served.
"You go out first." Yang Biao dipped both towels into the water, wrung out the water, and seeing that Caiping was still beside him, he let her leave.
He put a towel on Xia Weiwei's forehead and prepared to wipe the parts of the body where the large blood vessels passed with another towel.
In modern times, if your children have a fever, you will basically use physical cooling methods first, and then go to the hospital for a check-up to make sure it is not a precursor to a serious illness, and then go home and take medicine with peace of mind. If the child still has a fever after taking the medicine, then continue to use physical cooling methods.
Yang Biao undressed Xia Weiwei and found that her face was even redder. My God, how high must the temperature of this child's fever be? But there were no thermometers to measure the temperature in ancient times. Why hasn't Ji Lang bought the medicine yet?
He hurriedly wiped the sides of Xia Weiwei's neck, armpits, limbs, and groin, which are parts of the body with rich blood circulation. The blood vessels in these areas are superficial, and repeated wiping can bring the heat out of the body through the evaporation of water, thereby achieving the purpose of cooling down.
"Master, the medicine is ready." After Ji Lang prepared the medicine, he wanted to bring it directly into the house, but was stopped by Cai Ping outside the door. Cai Ping was curious, so she looked over to see what Yang Biao was doing. As a result, she saw him undressing Xia Weiwei and wiping her body with a wet towel. She was so scared that she quickly closed the door.
"Oh, bring it in." Yang Biao hurriedly covered Xia Weiwei, who was half-naked, with the quilt.
Seeing Xia Weiwei lying on the bed covered with a blanket, with only her head exposed, Ji Lang handed the medicine to Yang Biao and left without looking away.
"Weiwei, let me feed you the medicine." Yang Biao helped the weak Xia Weiwei up, let her lean on him, and then fed her the medicine.
"Brother Biao," Zhang rushed in at this time. Caiping was called by Yang Biao to fetch fresh well water, and was not staying outside the door at this time.
"Ah," Zhang was shocked when she saw her third grandson holding a disheveled girl in his arms as soon as she entered the room.
"Grandma," Yang Biao didn't think anything of it when he saw Zhang come in, and greeted her naturally. They were both fifteen years old, but Xia Weiwei hadn't developed as well as his daughter. It might be because the modern diet was more balanced and nutritious.
“Well, you are…” Zhang hadn’t seen a young girl’s body for a long time. Of course, she had been helping Qian Xiang and the others take a bath, but that was the body of a little girl.
"I am Yang Biao's daughter-in-law who got married half a month ago." Seeing Yang Biao's elders enter the room, the weak Xia Weiwei tried to tidy up her clothes, but her hands had no strength at all and she had to return empty-handed.
"Get married in a wedding ceremony?" Zhang was shocked. This little bastard spent twenty taels of betrothal gifts to marry a wife from the county town without telling her; now he got married again in the provincial capital without telling her. She was very angry. He didn't take her seriously.
But then she thought again, she had not provided any help to these two granddaughters-in-law, so she didn't have the courage to reprimand them.
"Well," Yang Biao didn't want to explain these things. He supported Xia Weiwei and helped her lie flat on the bed. He took off the hot towel on her forehead and touched her forehead. It seemed that she still had a little fever. He continued to put the hot towel into the water to cool it down, wrung it dry and put it back on her forehead, and wiped the cooling parts of her body again.
"Ah," what a mess, Zhang looked at the two children and sighed deeply. The eldest grandson didn't have a wife, but the third grandson already had two. Zhang felt very disappointed when she thought of this, but she was helpless.
"Grandma, if you want to see Brother Zi'an, I'll have someone take you to see him." Caiping came into the house carrying the newly drawn well water, and Yang Biao told her to take Zhang to see Jiang Sheng and let Jiang Sheng arrange a meeting between the two generations.
"She is your grandma, right?" Seeing that he didn't have deep feelings for Yang Biao, Xia Weiwei saw that he was frowning, so she reached out to touch his brows, trying to smooth them out.
"You are so young, don't frown all the time, it will make you look old easily."
