Jiang Yao only managed to get some sleep when the sun rose. She only opened the door with a tired face when someone knocked on the door.
"Sister-in-law, why are you back?" Zhou Junmin was outside the door with breakfast. He had come back with Lu Xingzhi last night. When he came back, he realized that Lu Xingzhi had a fever. In the morning, he heard from the cafeteria that Lu Xingzhi didn't come to eat breakfast. He went to Lu Xingzhi's office but didn't see him either. Hence, he specially brought some porridge over to take a look.
Zhou Junmin felt that Lu Xingzhi might have fallen ill.
"I came back last night. Come in." Jiang Yao gave Zhou Junmin a pair of slippers.
"Regiment Commander fell ill last night, right? Sister-in-law, you must not have rested well taking care of him last night. You even have dark circles under your eyes. " Zhou Junmin passed the breakfast to Jiang Yao. "Sister-in-law, why don't you eat first? I'll go get another set for Regiment Commander. Oh right, is Regiment Commander awake? How was he last night? "
"He had a high fever. It kept going on and on throughout the night. When it subsided, the fever came again. I was tormented for half the night." Jiang Yao took the breakfast and thanked Zhou Junmin. She was indeed hungry, but Lu Xingzhi was still sleeping.
"It's all because of this damned weather. It keeps raining. The roads outside are repaired here, but the other side looks like it's going to collapse. We've been rushing here and there for the past two days. We don't even have time to close our eyes. We can't even eat properly." Zhou Junmin said, "When we came back yesterday, many of our soldiers fell ill. Many of them were sent to the infirmary in the middle of the night. The doctors and nurses in the infirmary are still so busy that they don't have time to rest. Some of the more serious ones were transferred to the city hospital early in the morning."
Jiang Yao was a doctor herself, and a very skilled one at that. Hence, Zhou Junmin felt that with Jiang Yao around, it wasn't a big deal for Regiment Commander to have a fever.
Usually, it was his regiment commander who took care of his sister-in-law. Now, it was his sister-in-law's turn to take care of the regiment commander overnight.
"Go to the infirmary and take a look. If the situation is still serious, you can call me. I'll find time to go over and take a look." Jiang Yao said, "It's true that fevers can't be delayed. The longer you delay, the worse it will get. Some people are like your regiment commander, always thinking that everything will be fine after a good night's sleep."
"Alright!" Zhou Junmin nodded. "Sister-in-law, eat it while it's still hot. I'll make a trip to the infirmary and get another set of breakfast for the regiment commander."
Jiang Yao thanked him and watched Zhou Junmin leave with the umbrella. After washing up, she sat down at the dining table and was about to eat breakfast when she heard a noise coming from the study.
It seemed like Lu Xingzhi had bumped into something. There was a loud bang.
She was so frightened that she didn't even bother to eat and ran into the study. She immediately saw Lu Xingzhi sitting on the floor and rubbing his head.
This scene was inexplicably funny. Jiang Yao immediately burst out laughing. "Lu Xingzhi, how old are you? How can you roll out of bed?"
Jiang Yao had really wronged Lu Xingzhi. He didn't roll out of bed. He just didn't have the strength to get out of bed and fell onto the floor after getting up. His head hit the bed leg, and it hurt a little.
Hearing his wife's teasing laughter coming from the door, Lu Xingzhi slowly raised his head to look at Jiang Yao. Only then did he remember that Jiang Yao seemed to have come back last night. She even helped him wipe his body, change into his pajamas, and make the bed.
