136 Rotating Vigil

Some also carried quicklime and threw it everywhere.

Some also pushed wooden carts with a large bucket of concoction and distributed it to the busy people.

In addition, there is a place for taking turns to bathe, which is full of medicinal energy.

There is also a place where clothes are washed together, and the smell of medicine is overwhelming.

In addition, there is also a "propaganda team" that beats gongs and drums, and starts preaching on methods to prevent and control the plague when someone is caught...

The whole city is noisy inside and outside. It seems to be a mess, but in fact it is very orderly!

Zhu Xiuyuan's method of preventing and controlling the plague was carried out step by step.

Of course, such organizational ability comes from Dong Cheng in the yamen. Only Dong Cheng can keep everything in order in such a chaotic situation with no convenient means of communication.



Dong's Mansion.

midnight.

Four or five candles were lit in Zhu Xiuyuan's room, illuminating the whole room brightly.

On the bed, Zhu Xiuyuan closed his eyes tightly, not waking up yet.

In front of the bed, Dong Shuzhen, Qiu Wen, and Xia Wu were sitting on three chairs respectively, facing Zhu Xiuyuan, staring at him blankly, as if Zhu Xiuyuan would suddenly wake up and run away.

The three masters and servants did not speak, and sat quietly.

Qiu Wen and Xia Wu nodded their heads from time to time, then immediately opened their eyes, staring "vigorously" at the sleeping Zhu Xiuyuan, then their eyes gradually dimmed, and they nodded again...

Dong Shuzhen leaned her head on the back of the chair and stared at Zhu Xiuyuan, motionless, not knowing what she was thinking in her heart.

Boom, boom, boom!

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and then the voice of the eldest lady Dong Shuyu said: "Zhen'er, open the door quickly, we are here to take over from you."

Dong Shuzhen moved her stiff neck and suddenly realized that it was already midnight.

She winked at Xia Wu, who immediately went to open the door.

Dong Shuzhen and Qiu Wen also stood up and moved the chairs back to their original positions.

"Zhen'er, it's time. You should go back and rest first. We will leave it to the three of us in the middle of the night." Dong Shuyu, Chun Xue, and Dong Mei came in.

"Sister, but I don't want to sleep. I want to stay here with my husband." Dong Shuzhen took her sister's hand and tilted her head to look at Zhu Xiuyuan on the bed.

"Silly boy, be obedient. How can a person stay awake all night? Go to bed quickly. Besides, among the methods of preventing and treating the plague mentioned by Xiu Yuan, there is an 'immunity' in it. This thing can resist the infection of the plague.

, but the 'resistance' must be strong enough. And adequate rest can keep the 'resistance' strong enough."

"But……"

"Zhen'er!" Dong Shuyu touched Dong Shuzhen's head and said seriously: "Now is a critical period. We can't have any more problems. If Xiuyuan wakes up and finds that you are sick again, then he will be so anxious!

We can't hold back Xiu Yuan and Daddy now."

After hearing this, Dong Shuzhen's heart moved, and she suddenly remembered that she had made up her mind before and would go out to help Zhu Xiuyuan tomorrow.

If she stays up all night and has no energy when the time comes, how can she help her husband?

"Okay, sister, let's go back to the room and rest!" Dong Shuzhen glanced at Zhu Xiuyuan one last time, then opened the door with Qiu Wen and Xia Wu.

Qiu Wen and Xia Wu followed Dong Shuzhen into her room. After a brief wash, Dong Shuzhen was ready to go down and rest.

However, she saw Qiu Wen standing in front of her bed with her head lowered and wringing her hands, refusing to leave.

Xia Wu had already taken half a step out. When she saw that Qiu Wen hadn't moved, she also stopped and stared at Qiu Wen, wondering what happened to Qiu Wen.

Dong Shuzhen had already laid down on the bed. When she saw Qiu Wen's expression, she suddenly understood.

"Xiao Wen'er, come and sleep with me. It will be warmer this way." Dong Shuzhen waved.

"Okay, Miss!" Qiu Wen immediately took off her shoes, socks and coat, climbed onto the Miss's bed, got into the bed, and exposed only her head, facing Xia Wu's envious eyes.

Seeing Xia Wu's helpless look, Dong Shuzhen felt really pitiful, so she waved to her again and said, "Xiao Wu'er, come too. The three of us haven't slept together for a long time."

"Okay miss!" Xia Wu ran over without saying anything...



Let's say that after the three masters and servants Dong Shuzhen left Zhu Xiuyuan's room, only the sleeping Zhu Xiuyuan, Dong Shuyu, Chun Xue and Dong Mei were left in the room.

Dong Shuyu also ordered three chairs to be brought in and placed in front of Zhu Xiuyuan's bed.

She sat down on the chair closest to Zhu Xiuyuan's bed, while Chunxue and Dongmei sat behind.

If Dong Shuzhen were still here, she would be surprised when she saw this battle, because the two sisters' "night vigil" methods were exactly the same!

However, Dong Shuyu was not as bored as Dong Shuzhen, and just stared blankly at Zhu Xiuyuan.

Dong Shuyu found some work for herself - holding a flower shed and started doing embroidery stitch by stitch!

Behind Dong Shuyu, Chunxue and Dongmei looked at each other. They knew in their hearts that the eldest lady seldom did embroidery work.

Only when the eldest lady feels uneasy will she pick up the needle and thread.

In other words, embroidery is a way for Dong Shuyu to relieve stress.

After the two little maids looked at each other, they also took out a flower shed and embroidered with the eldest lady.

The eldest ladies have started to embroider. As maids, how can they sit around and idle!

It's just that the two little maids felt a little strange in their hearts. This strangeness was so personal that neither of them dared to make eye contact.

I just silently thought about this strange thing in my heart, and glanced at the eldest lady's back from time to time, and then stared at the sleeping Zhu Xiuyuan.

Zhu Xiuyuan is the uncle, but he is the uncle of the second young lady, not the uncle of the eldest lady.

It seemed a little inappropriate for them to be in the second young lady's uncle's room in the middle of the night...

After this strangeness "raged" in the hearts of the two little maids for a long time, they finally realized it clearly: "Yes, now is a critical period. If you are not careful, the entire Jiangzhou may become a dead city.

And something must not happen to my uncle now. We are keeping vigil here. Although it is a bit inappropriate, we can’t care about so many things..."

Dong Shuyu didn't notice the strangeness in the hearts of the two little maids behind him. She stared at the needlework in her hands for a while, then raised her eyes to stare at Zhu Xiuyuan.

She always remembered that after Zhu Xiuyuan woke up, she had to boil the medicine for him to drink.

In the second half of the night, Zhu Xiuyuan's room was extremely quiet, so quiet that you could even faintly hear the sound of gongs and drums from the "propaganda team" outside the house.

There are also voices of people barking and dogs barking. Although various sounds are faint, they never stop.



"Ah...ha!"

I don't know what day it was, but suddenly a yawning sound came from the bedside.
Chapter completed!
