After a heavy rain, the breeze came slowly, the fragrance of flowers and soil swam into the nose, and the weather returned to fine, but Bai Li developed a high fever in the early morning of the second day.
Although the physique of demons is better than that of humans, Bai Li is pampered after all, and rarely gets wet. This time, not only did he get wet, but he also covered his body with such an ice-cold package for several hours. Although he never felt anything different that day, But after a sleep, he began to feel a burning sensation all over his body.
When You Qing woke up, he turned his head and saw that his face was flushed, his eyebrows were furrowed, and his lips that were usually rosy as if dripping with water were actually cracked. When I touched it, it was terrifyingly hot, and my eyes suddenly became anxious: "Ali, wake up!"
Bai Li hummed twice, but didn't wake up. He shook his head a few times before opening his eyes in a daze: "Hmm...? Ah Qing..."
You Qing didn't say a word, and hurriedly got out of bed and poured water, lifted him up with one hand, put the cup to his lips, and whispered: "You have a fever, moisten your throat first, and I'll go and invite Langzhong in a while. ."
Bai Li was stunned for a moment, and the fine sweat on his forehead slid down and covered his eyes. He didn't have the strength to speak, so he nodded obediently and drank the water. After drinking, he was supported by You Qing and lay down again, the quilt was tightly wrapped from head to toe. Strictly.
You Qing wiped the sweat off his face with a veil, then pulled his quilt to cover him with an extra layer, and told him to sleep well and not move, then hurried to the other side of the village. .
There is a barefoot doctor living in the village. He is not very skilled in medicine, but he is also good at some common diseases. When an elderly child from a nearby family is ill, he will visit him.
Doctor Meng had long heard that Young Master You had added a very handsome but sharp-toothed book boy. This time, he came here with the medicine box, and he kept wondering what kind of character this book boy was, which made Young Master You anxious. When I stepped through the door and approached the bed, I finally saw the person clearly.
Dr. Meng never imagined that the two of them were sharing the same bed, but You Qing's house could not fit two beds, and it was understandable to lie down on the same bed, so he didn't think too much, just hurriedly put down the medicine box and went to give it to others. Take the pulse.
When Bai Li was transformed into a human form, the pulse was no different from that of an ordinary person. Doctor Meng checked him carefully, saying that he was suffering from a cold and the severity was not serious, so he needed to take a good rest. He brought a pack of typhoid medicine for emergency use from home and gave him a prescription, and asked him to go to the pharmacy in the town to get the medicine according to the prescription.
You Qing thanked him and paid the consultation fee. After sending him away, he hurried to boil the medicine.
Bai Li felt in a daze that You Qing was wiping his face, the warm towel aroused his sanity a bit, he couldn't help raising his hand and grabbed his hand, struggling to open his eyes, The sick face actually had a hint of smoky charm, but the dark eyes were as clear as always, and there was a bit of guilt in his expression: "Aqing... I'm sorry..."
You Qing listened to his dry and hoarse voice, the pity that occasionally floated in his heart in the past turned into a very obvious distress now. He never imagined that one day he would be so concerned about a person, so he patted the back of his hand soothingly and continued to give. He wiped his face, and the smile in his eyes was like the sunny sunshine outside: "Don't be silly, take a good rest, and drink the medicine after breakfast."
Bai Li stared at his smiling brows, unable to say anything. When You Qing said anything, he would only answer the word "um" obediently.
After eating breakfast and drinking the medicine, he fell into a deep sleep. When he woke up again, You Qing had already grabbed the medicine and returned. Bai Li watched in amazement as he came over and sat beside the bed to touch his forehead: "Aqing, why did you come back so soon?"
"It just so happened that the back and forth was on Uncle Wu's ox cart." You Qing touched the sweat on his forehead, and when he saw his bright eyes looking at him, he couldn't help but smile, "I sweat a lot, It will be healed in two days, do you feel sick?" As he said that, he pulled out one of his hands, picked up his sleeve and touched his arm, and as expected, his hand was sweaty.
Bai Li was startled by his actions, lowered his eyelashes to hide his surprised and happy expression, but felt that his heartbeat suddenly accelerated and his breathing lost its rhythm. When he was put back into the quilt and regained his senses, You Qing had already gone out.
Looking up at the sunlight on the casement, Bai Li's heart filled with joy all spread to his eyes.
When You Qing came in again, he had a pot of hot water in his hand and put the pot on the head of the bed. Seeing Bai Li looking at him with a puzzled face, he smiled and reached out to help him: "Wipe your sweat."
"Ah?" Bai Li was stunned.
"Ah what? You're sweating all over, and you won't be able to fall back asleep if you don't wipe it off in time." Then he sat behind him and let him lean on his shoulders.
Bai Li was stunned for a moment, and his cheeks suddenly flushed. He knew that he had no other intentions, but he was overjoyed by such closeness. He bit his lip to suppress the smile on the corner of his mouth, and let him keep himself still. clothes unbuttoned.
Although they were all men, they were not rough countrymen who worked in the fields after all. Sincerely facing each other is always a bit unethical. You Qing is not a person who sticks to etiquette, but he doesn't feel any discomfort in his heart, but he originally thought Bai Li would be shy. , I didn't expect it to be abnormally obedient, and I couldn't help but want to laugh.
A fool also has the advantages of being a fool. It's not awkward at all, and it's a peace of mind to get along.
However, in You Qing's eyes, Bai Li's stupidity is somewhat different from the stupidity of others. It is not a delirious stupidity, but an innocent and pure-hearted person who sometimes takes on some stupidity. Therefore, occasionally calling him a fool is not a derogatory meaning, but rather a sense of derogation. Kind of a favorite appreciation.
The skin on Bai Li's body was as fair as a boiled and peeled egg, which could be broken by blowing a bullet. You Qing sat in the back, twisting the handkerchief and wiping it on his chest, but he didn't see it clearly until he pulled the clothes off his shoulders. When he couldn't help but stare at his round and slender shoulders, he was stunned.
Usually I see him only slightly shorter than me, and I think they are about the same size, but now I don't have the clothes to cover, I realize that he is obviously a little thinner than me, although I don't think he has any pitiful, but Inexplicably, there was still a hint of pity in my heart.
Seeing that he didn't move for a long time, Bai Li wanted to turn his head and ask him why he didn't move, but the breath that brushed past his neck made him shudder a little, so he calmed down and looked out the window: "Aqing, tomorrow is still the same. Is it good weather? I want to take the painting out to dry."
You Qing didn't know what he was thinking about just now, but after hearing his voice, he regained his senses, turned around and twisted the veil in the basin, and said with a smile, "You are so precious about this painting, I'll take care of it later. You take it out to dry."
Bai Li's eyes narrowed with a smile: "Yeah."
You Qing rubbed his two arms once, only to feel that his whole body seemed soft and boneless, and when he thought about his buoyant appearance on weekdays, he couldn't help laughing a little: "Your illness has made you quieter. "
Bai Li suddenly tensed up: "Ah? Am I being too noisy?"
You Qing felt his soft body suddenly stiffen, and couldn't help but stunned for a moment. He raised his hand and tapped lightly on the side of his head: "I'm just joking, why are you nervous?"
"Oh!" Bai Li laughed, his whole body relaxed again, and after a while he frowned again, "I'm afraid all the money from selling calligraphy and painting will buy me medicine..."
"It's okay, I'll paint a few more pictures another day." You Qing twisted the veil again and spread his body slightly. When he was about to wipe his back, he suddenly looked at his back and was stunned.
