The family of Chinese medicine was a famous doctor of the previous dynasty. When he entered the Imperial Hospital, his surname was Fang, and later on, the country gradually sank into depression. Opium ran rampant in the concession area, and Fang Ningbo, the father of Chinese medicine, was the first to step forward and demand that the state formulate a law to restrain foreigners from wantonly buying and selling opium in the lease area.
For such a matter, as someone who came from too great a hospital, he could clearly stay out of it, but the result was … The Fang family had almost been completely wiped out. After the combined efforts of everyone, the three of them were finally able to stay behind …
Jin Se was in a hurry, it was already late by the time he arrived. Just as he entered the house, the Doctor Gao asked with concern, ”How is it? Is everything all right? ”
Jin Se shook his head, and handed the medicine bag over to Qingqing: ”Fried medicine!”
”Yes.” Qingqing also took the medicinal herbs and quickly left.
”I see you're pale.” Doctor Gao saw that Jin Se did not seem to be tired, but was frightened. He sensed that something was amiss with the atmosphere.
”How is it? Is the patient all right? ” Jin Se looked down and saw that his chest was still heaving. He heaved a sigh of relief.
”It's fine. I've temporarily stabilized. If I don't continue, it will only worsen.” Doctor Gao looked at the wound and Jin Se looked at it too.
”Let's give it a try. It might be useful.” Jin Se placed all his hope on the pill, afraid that there would be some problems, so he kept staring until Qingqing brought the pill over.
”Feed it,” Jin Se slowly pried open the man's mouth and fed him something. In the beginning, he could not drink, so he kept spitting, and Jin Se switched spoons, feeding him spoonful by spoonful.
Doctor Gao was standing at the side. Seeing that the bowl was already empty, and the sky was already dark, he asked softly, ”It's getting dark, is Jin Se going to stay here today?”
Jin Se shook his head, ”No, I will still go home.”
Jin Se rarely took the initiative to ask to go home, and this was perhaps the first time. Not to mention the Doctor Gao, even Qingqing, who was at the side, found it a little strange, but it was not easy to ask.
At the beginning, Doctor Gao wanted to send Jin Se back, but there were so many patients here that he couldn't afford to lose too many people.
Jin Se dragged his exhausted body into the Yang Mansion, and saw the landlady greeting him from far away. Under the street lamp, Jin Se suddenly felt a sense of warmth.
”Sister, you're back?”
Today, the landlady had changed her address. She only knew that Jin Se was Lin Ting's cousin, so she could tell who Jin Se was when she addressed him as younger sister or elder sister.
”Mm, yes.” Jin Se vaguely responded. Her heart was in a mess, but the landlord was also very gentle and passionate, so Jin Se also greeted her, ”Madam, did you see your cousin just now?”
The landlady looked flattered, ”I didn't see my sister come back. I was about to close the door and saw you walking over from a distance.”
The landlady had opened a small grocery store outside. It was already late at night and no one would come to buy anything. She was just about to close for the night.
Then, the landlady took out a jar of milk and shoved it into Jin Se's hands, ”You two sisters have never known how to take milk, so I was prepared to send it over to you guys.
Jin Se nodded his head, placed the milk into the pocket of his overcoat and then courteously bid farewell to his wife.
Just as Jin Se entered the house and turned on the light, she placed the milk on the table and the doorbell rang again.
”Did Jin Se come back to stay for the night?”
It was Lin Ting's voice. Jin Se heaved a sigh of relief, and he even ridiculed Lin Ting in his heart, ”This guy is really … Don't you know how to open the door with a key? ”It's quite scary.”
”He's back!”
Jin Se slowly walked to the door. Lin Ting was already anxious from waiting, ”Hurry up and open the door!”
”Who told you to not take your key every time you go out, and now you're blaming me instead?”
Jin Se opened the door and saw Lin Ting dragging a large bag as he said in a sorry state, ”You heartless fellow, I brought the thing over with good intentions. On the way, I was trembling with fear and was also troubled.
This is how Lin Ting is. Usually, when you say her, she would have a thousand sentences waiting for you.
