Outside the Great Wall, at the foot of Changbai Mountain.
Although Boss Ye's high fever has subsided slightly, his overall condition is still very poor.
His injured ankle was swollen and the cold air entering his lungs caused him to cough incessantly.
And every violent cough will cause pain all over the body, especially the injured part.
Doctor Qian came over and took his pulse and said, "Fortunately, you have a good health foundation. If it were someone else, they would have died here today.
"Although your fever has subsided now, your physical condition is too poor and it is likely to recur tonight.
"I'll adjust the prescription for you. Take the medicine first and observe carefully. If the fever comes back, call me immediately.
"It would be best if you don't have a fever again. You must rest well these few days to allow your body to recover. Don't work hard or rush."
Upon hearing this, Boss Cheng quickly said, "Okay, Doctor Qian, don't worry, I'll take care of him!"
No matter what, the patient is now awake and the fever has subsided, so Boss Cheng still has great trust in Doctor Qian and will naturally comply with his requirements without any compromise.
Although Boss Ye works very hard, he is not the kind of person who values money over his life.
He came out to work hard to give his family a better life, not to sacrifice himself and make his family sad.
In addition, he was indeed feeling very uncomfortable at the time, so after discussing the issue of the return journey with Boss Cheng, he drank some porridge with the help of Uncle Jin, took some medicine and went back to sleep.
Seeing Boss Ye fall asleep, Uncle Jin said to Boss Cheng, who was already very sleepy, "You should go and have a rest too. I'll be watching over here!"
Boss Cheng hesitated when he heard this.
Boss Cheng was exhausted after yesterday's busy day. Last night, he stayed by Boss Ye's bedside anxiously for most of the night. He was indeed sleepy and tired.
But Doctor Qian said that Boss Ye’s condition might relapse, so how could he sleep well?
"Boss Cheng, I often help take care of patients here at Doctor Qian's, and I've seen many friends and relatives like you.
"Let me be frank, Boss Ye's illness won't be cured in a day or two.
“Even the strongest person can’t keep going forever.
"If you get sick again, it will be even more troublesome."
In fact, how could Boss Cheng not know these principles of Uncle Jin!
He was just worried.
Boss Cheng thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go back and take a nap and ask someone else to come and look after it for me."
Although he went back to sleep, Boss Cheng did not sleep well and kept having messy dreams.
Suddenly, I dreamt that something had happened to Boss Ye, and I was carrying the coffin back to Beijing, drowned in the tears of the Ye family...
Then I dreamed that Boss Ye would quickly recover and report the gold mine to the court after returning to Beijing. The two of them went to the palace together to receive awards...
Later on, all kinds of dreams mixed together, becoming so chaotic that he didn't even know what he was dreaming about.
Although he didn't sleep well, when he opened his eyes, it was already dark outside.
Boss Cheng jumped up from the kang, put on three layers of clothes and rushed to the clinic.
As soon as he entered the room, he asked anxiously, "Doctor Qian, how is Boss Ye?"
Doctor Qian was preparing medicine behind the counter. Hearing this, he said, "It's burning again..."
When Boss Cheng heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he instantly remembered his previous dream. He became extremely panicked.
Fortunately, Doctor Qian quickly continued, "Fortunately, it's not a high fever, just a low-grade fever, not serious.
"Looking at his current condition, he has recovered quite well.
"If this continues, you should be able to set off back home in five or six days."
Boss Cheng finally showed a look of surprise when he heard this.
He was prepared to stay here for ten days or half a month.
But if it is true as Doctor Qian said, that we can set off in five or six days, then maybe we can return to the capital before the twelfth lunar month.
Going back before the twelfth lunar month was something we all planned before we set off.
Of course, they all know that when you are away from home, plans are not as good as changes.
But once the twelfth lunar month arrives, every household will start preparing for the New Year.
Everyone risks their lives to come to Changbai Mountain just to make more money so they can have a prosperous new year.
So we agreed to go back before the twelfth lunar month in the beginning, in order to give everyone a motivation.
After waking up during the day, Boss Ye was still saying that he might not be able to return before the twelfth lunar month this time, and could only try to return before the Little New Year.
I didn't expect there was still hope.
Boss Cheng thought of the people who were resting in their residence at this time. If they knew the news, they would definitely be overjoyed.
As he was thinking, he came to the backyard where Boss Ye was recuperating. As soon as he entered the house, he smelled a strong smell of medicine.
"Why is there such a strong smell? Did the medicine bowl get broken?"
The man who had come to guard Boss Ye on behalf of Boss Cheng saw him coming and stood up and said, "Doctor Qian made some external medicine and applied it to Mr. Ye's ankle."
Uncle Jin also quickly stood up and said, "I've been applying it for quite some time now. Look, the swelling has gone down a bit."
As he spoke, he lifted the quilt from under Boss Ye's feet, revealing his ankles wrapped in cloth strips.
Boss Cheng leaned over to take a look, and it seemed that the swelling was indeed less than before.
Uncle Jin was also considerate enough to raise Boss Ye's injured leg a little higher.
Boss Cheng said with great satisfaction: "No wonder Boss Qian recommended you, you are indeed attentive and considerate.
"Don't worry, take good care of him. We will definitely not treat you unfairly in terms of money."
After hearing this, Uncle Jin first showed a simple smile, and then his expression became a little hesitant to speak.
Boss Cheng thought, could this guy be asking for too much?
Uncle Jin rubbed his hands and finally said, "Boss Cheng, I have a request. I don't need the wages, but can you take me with you when you leave?"
"You want to enter the country?" Boss Cheng asked in surprise, "Isn't your home in town?"
Uncle Jin smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "My wife and children died of illness. Now I am the only one who has enough to eat, and the whole family is not hungry!
"It's really boring to stay here alone. I always think of my wife and children at home, and I feel very sad.
"In order to pay for my wife and children's medical treatment, I sold everything in the house that was worth money.
"So I thought, instead of living in an empty house, I might as well move to another place and work hard for a few years to save some money for my retirement."
After hearing Uncle Jin's story, Boss Cheng was quite moved and said, "Okay, then you can take some time to go home and pack your things, and then come with us!"
