“What are you still doing?” Doctor Zhou pointed to the hard couch at the side. “Put your wife there and lie down for a while. Let her drink the dicine after it’s done. You can take the rest of the dicine back and boil it yourself tomorrow. Just boil one bowl.”
“Doctor Zhou, will the dicinal properties be destroyed if licorice is added to the dicine?” Thinking about how his lover told him that the dicine was too bitter, Zhao Zhan couldn’t help but ask, “If it doesn’t destroy the dicinal properties, can you add a little more?”
“I know, I know. Your wife is a treasure. I’ll grab so licorice and put it in now.”
Zhao Zhan nodded repeatedly and carried Yue Jiaojiao to the side of the bed. He only opened the blanket a little and carefully held her in his arms.
There were so many people coming and going and lying on the beds in the hall every day that he could not bear to place his lover on them.
Half an hour passed.
The dicine boy brought over the dicine that was almost cold with a tired face.
“Drink your dicine and go back quickly.”
Zhao Zhan thanked them and took the dicine. He coaxed her in a low voice, “Jiaojiao, the dicine is ready. Get up and drink so.”
Yue Jiaojiao had been in a light sleep. When she heard Zhao Zhan’s voice, her eyelashes fluttered and she opened her eyes weakly. Her voice was a little hoarse as she asked, “Is it bitter?”
Zhao Zhan lowered his head and took a sip.
“It’s a little bitter. I took so candied plums from ho when I ca out. I’ll feed you one after you finish the dicine.”
Yue Jiaojiao used the strength of Zhao Zhan’s arm to sit up, and with a bitter face, she finished the dicine in one gulp.
“Here. Eat this.” Zhao Zhan placed the fruit by her lips in ti, his face was gentle. “It won’t be bitter anymore.”
Yue Jiaojiao put the candied fruit in her mouth and buried her head in Zhao Zhan’s chest. “Zhao Zhan, I want to go ho.”
After all, this was the dicinal hall, not his own ho. Although she was delicate, she would never cause trouble regardless of the occasion.
“We’ll be going back now.”
Zhao Zhan returned the bowl of dicine to the dicine boy, picked up the dicine prescribed by Doctor Zhou, wrapped Yue Jiaojiao up again, and carried her back to the house.
After drinking the dicine, Yue Jiaojiao broke out in a cold sweat.
Seeing that she had finally fallen into a deep sleep, Zhao Zhan’s heart, which had been raised high up in the air, was finally put at ease for the ti being. He leaned against the bedpost and closed his eyes to rest for a while.
By the ti she finished the second set of dicine at daybreak, Yue Jiaojiao’s high fever had completely subsided. However, she still had a nasal voice when she spoke, so she lazily lay on the bed, not wanting to move.
“Zhao Zhan,” Yue Jiaojiao turned to look at the man who had been sitting by the bed and staring at her. “You’ve been staring at
for half a day. If this goes on, I’m sure I’ll have a few more holes in my body. I’m really fine. Do you want to go to the shop and take a look?”
It was just a fever. She was feeling uncomfortable at night and needed care, but once daybreak ca, Zhao Zhan was still protecting her as if he was protecting his life.
Yue Jiaojiao knew that he had a lot of things to do and didn’t want him to waste his ti at ho because of her.
Seeing that he wasn’t moving, Yue Jiaojiao’s eyes darted around slyly. “I want to eat barbecued at. Can you go to the shop and use the grill to make so for ?”
“You can’t eat such greasy food now. I made so porridge in the jar. Shall I get a bowl?”
“I can eat barbecued at and congee at the sa ti. Otherwise, it won’t taste good.” She shook Zhao Zhan’s arm. “Zhao Zhan, you should go to the shop and take a look. Didn’t I ask you to ask Fang Tianliu about that matter last ti? If he likes her, you must make sure he explains it clearly to Xiangjun.”
Zhao Zhan’s empty right hand had been shielding her from behind the entire ti, afraid that she would fall off the bed if she got dizzy. Hearing her say this, he hesitated for a long ti before nodding.
