Chapter 143: Just Thunder (Update 1)
Su Yujin warned, "Although the decoction contains herbs for detoxification and calming the mind, Madam has stopped taking the previous medicine, so she may feel irritable and her temper may be out of control. Smelling the aroma of these herbs more often may help."
"In addition, if Madam is really irritable and even starts to self-harm, she can take one pill of this. However, this medicine is too potent and it is not recommended to take too much. Only take one pill when it is difficult to suppress it. The interval between taking should not be less than one day."
"I'm still here during this period of time. Manager Kang can bring his wife here every day. If it's not convenient, I can go over there too."
If you check your pulse every day, you will have a better idea of the situation.
Moreover, if Chen could be carefully taken care of in the early stage, once she left Hedong Prefecture, as long as she was taken care of according to the prescription afterwards, there would probably be no serious problem and it would only be a matter of time before she recovered.
"I've made note of it." Kang nodded repeatedly, "Thank you so much, Miss Su, for your care and kindness. I really don't know how to repay you."
For many people, it is better to do less than more.
Even though they noticed that Chen was different from usual, most people would think it was something happening in the rear house and didn't want to cause too much trouble.
Only Su Yujin is a kind-hearted doctor who truly cares about Chen.
"When I first arrived here, Madam took good care of me, and that's what she deserved." Su Yujin said, "Shopkeeper Kang really doesn't deserve the word gracious. I really don't deserve it."
"But if Shopkeeper Kang really wants to thank you, then you should make those skewers shops more prosperous in the future, so that I can also make more money."
Su Yujin's half-joking words immediately livened up the originally dull atmosphere.
Kang smiled and said, "Of course, this is what I am good at. I can't ask Miss Su to count money with her eyes closed, but at least Miss Su won't have to worry about her food, clothing and other expenses every year."
"Then I'm looking forward to it."
“…”
After talking for a while, Chen felt a little sleepy after taking the medicine, so Kang took Chen away first.
After taking medicine for three or four days in a row, Su Yujin also treated Chen for three or four days in a row.
After taking a series of medicines and receiving acupuncture, the poison accumulated in Chen's body was slightly reduced, but symptoms such as depression, headache, and irritability gradually became more prominent.
According to Su Yujin, Kang and Qu Zhiwen have been accompanying Chen in recent days, taking care of her wholeheartedly. They let Chen smell more of the herbs given by Su Yujin, and tried all kinds of ways to make Chen happy to relieve her boredom.
Especially Qu Zhiwen, after dealing with the important affairs of the government office in the past two days, he assigned the rest to others if possible, turned down all social engagements, and tried to spare as much time as possible to accompany Chen.
The weather was hot, and Chen tossed and turned at night, unable to sleep, feeling depressed. In addition to the ice cubes that Kang had sent in the room, Qu Zhiwen fanned Chen all night to keep her cool.
Chen took a bite and wanted to eat fresh lotus seeds, so Qu Zhiwen asked someone to pick lotus pods and peeled the lotus seeds for Chen himself.
Chen was so upset that she had no way to vent, so she kept scratching, scratching and biting him, and Qu Zhiwen became a meat dumpling.
As a result, during this period of time, Qu Zhiwen could always see deep and shallow scars on his exposed cheeks, neck, and the back of his hands. However, he was worried that Chen would suddenly get sick and bite again. He didn't even dare to apply medicine, for fear that she would eat it and it would wash away the medicinal properties of the other soups she drank. He just washed her face with light salt water every day and left it alone...
This went on for about half a month.
Under the dedicated diagnosis and care of Su Yujin, Qu Zhiwen, Kang and others, Chen's condition has made great progress.
Although the toxins could not be completely cleared and he could not recover to be a normal person, his bouts of madness had become much less frequent. Apart from occasionally getting upset and smashing things, he had not done anything out of the ordinary.
This posture should be about right.
Su Yujin breathed a sigh of relief, checked Chen's pulse again, and adjusted the prescription again.
Qu Zhiwen and Kang also breathed a sigh of relief.
The reason they both breathed a sigh of relief, in addition to the fact that Chen's condition had improved, the most important thing was that Chen did not seem to remember that her two children had passed away.
She was still thinking about when Yuan'er and Wu'er would come back, and even cried a few times before going to bed for several nights.
But after being comforted by Qu Zhiwen's gentle words, he said nothing more and just said that they would see each other on August 15th.
Since I can't remember the death of my child, I won't commit suicide because of it. As for waiting for my child to come back...
Qu Zhiwen has already found two people who look and have similar voices, and have a scholarly air. When the time comes, after some dressing up and applying a little powder and makeup, they can look 70% to 80% similar.
I haven't seen them for a long time, and the children are growing up. It is common for their appearance and stature to change. Maybe I can just make it up.
Even though this was deceiving her...
In the middle of the night, the wind started to blow.
The branches outside the window were rustling, and then dark clouds gathered, blocking the bright moon.
After the lightning that illuminated the earth as bright as day, there were bursts of thunder one after another.
Chen woke up with a scream, tears streaming down her face, and trembling uncontrollably.
"It's just thunder, don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Qu Zhiwen hurriedly hugged Chen in his arms and comforted her softly.
Chen clutched a corner of Qu Zhiwen's inner garment, choking with sobs and unable to utter a word, only tears streaming down her face, soaking most of Qu Zhiwen's clothes on his chest.
She cried for a long time, until the sound of thunder, lightning, wind and rain outside became quieter. Then Chen sat up straight and wiped the tears from her face with a handkerchief.
"The sound of rain outside has become much quieter. You can sleep well with your husband here." Qu Zhiwen patted Chen's back gently.
"Yeah." Chen nodded and lay down.
But after lying down, she tossed and turned for a long time and couldn't fall asleep. She just bit her lip and reached out to pat Qu Zhiwen's shoulder, "Master."
"What's wrong?" Qu Zhiwen turned sideways.
"I thought about it. The children's studies are important, and their future is even more important. I wrote a letter to the children, asking them to concentrate on their studies and not worry about home. If it is inconvenient, they can even not come back during the Mid-Autumn Festival..."
"Yes." Qu Zhiwen nodded, "Then I will send someone to deliver the letter tomorrow."
In this way, it will be New Year's Eve, and there will still be almost half a year left.
It was enough for people to teach those two people how to speak, express themselves, and have good manners, and try to imitate them as best as possible.
"Go to sleep quickly." Qu Zhiwen said.
"Yeah." Chen lay down and turned over.
The tears in her eyes rolled down unconsciously. ——Soon , it was the day when He Yanxiu and Su Yujin were going to leave.
