Chapter 271 How to prove it
Doctor Liu knew that he couldn't avoid it, so he could only let Su Yujin see him and answered truthfully, "Today's cough is much lighter than yesterday, and the chest is not as stuffy. It's just that I feel very sleepy, weak all over, and sometimes a little nauseous."
Su Yujin silently recorded the symptoms and nodded, "The medicine I used yesterday was quite strong. Maybe your body couldn't handle it. I changed the prescription today and will try this one."
"I see the rash has subsided a little, but is it still itchy?"
"It doesn't itch anymore," Doctor Liu replied, "and no new ones have grown."
“That’s probably the right remedy.”
Su Yujin then went to check on the conditions of several other patients.
Almost all of them were like Dr. Liu, with their cough and rash relieved, and they felt weak all over and had symptoms of nausea and vomiting.
Su Yujin wrote them down one by one, and after thinking about it, he added and reduced a few medicinal herbs used for fumigation.
This time, the medicine was taken for a day. Su Yujin came to check on the patient in the evening. He adjusted the prescription again based on the patient's pulse, recovery after taking the medicine, and physical condition.
I watched Su Yujin modifying the prescription by candlelight. He wrote a few words on a piece of paper, crossed out a few, added a few, and crossed out a few more...
After thinking hard for a long time without any certainty, he reached out and flipped through the medical book beside him. He also moved all the spare herbs to his side, weighed them according to the quantity, gathered them together and stared at the pile of herbs in a daze. Then he picked out the herbs one by one and weighed them again.
It was very late at night, even the moon had set, only a few stars were visible in the sky, and the only sound in the yard was the low chirping of summer insects.
Su Yujin felt a little tired and rubbed her sore eyes with her hands.
"Take a break." He Yanxiu came over with a lunch box in his hand. "I know you are still developing the medicine. If I persuade you to go to sleep, you probably won't want to. If you don't want to sleep, just have a midnight snack."
"The red bean dumplings made in the kitchen are not too sweet. I also asked them to make some savory shortbread to eat with them."
"Thank you, Master." Su Yujin laughed, "I'm really a little hungry."
I have been busy since dinner until now, with almost no rest, and my stomach is already empty.
"Since you're hungry, eat more. There's more in the kitchen." He Yanxiu opened the food box and placed various bowls and plates in front of Su Yujin one by one.
There were double portions of glutinous rice balls and crispy cakes, and He Yanxiu ate them with Su Yujin.
The two of them sat face to face at the round table, eating glutinous rice balls and pastries in silence.
Su Yujin was really hungry at this time, and she ate voraciously until she had eaten two pastries and half of the glutinous rice balls. Then she let out a long sigh of relief and looked up, "These red bean glutinous rice balls are really delicious."
The red beans are cooked until they are mushy and have a very delicate taste. The rock sugar is added in just the right amount, making it sweet but not greasy. The most important thing is that a little dried osmanthus is added when cooking the glutinous rice balls, which makes them taste full of osmanthus fragrance.
"Yeah." He Yanxiu nodded, and when he looked up and saw Su Yujin's face, he couldn't help but smile.
"What's wrong?" Seeing He Yanxiu laughing happily, Su Yujin was puzzled.
"It's become a little cat." He Yanxiu handed over the small bronze mirror.
Su Yujin took the bronze mirror and looked over.
Originally, she had put on dark powder on her face in order to dress up as a man. Now she was busy until midnight, and the room was still filled with fumigation. She was sweating a little, so she just wiped it twice with a towel. Now she was eating hot dumplings, and she was sweating again, so she wiped it twice with a towel again...
The makeup on her face was now distributed very unevenly, with some patches darker and some lighter, just like the little cat that He Yanxiu had mentioned.
Su Yujin felt a little embarrassed and quickly washed her face with the clean water in the basin beside her before eating the soft and glutinous red bean dumplings.
"There's still a little bit here."
He Yanxiu took a towel and helped Su Yujin wipe it, and said with a smile, "It's clean now."
"Would you like some more dumplings? I'll get them for you."
Su Yujin was stunned for a moment.
He Yanxiu started to wipe her face.
He Yanxiu wanted to help her get more dumplings.
He Yanxiu looked at her with tenderness in his eyes...
Although Su Yujin knew through their daily contacts that He Yanxiu was also a very kind person, this kind of gentleness was obviously different from kindness.
It seems a bit like...
Su Yujin's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Could it be that...
Because she was now dressed as a man and looked a bit like a handsome boy, He Yanxiu was...
Is it that interesting? This is totally wrong!
Su Yujin was silent for a long time before she looked at He Yanxiu and spoke seriously, "Second Master, that..."
"What?" He Yanxiu scooped a glutinous rice ball into his mouth.
"I am a woman, please...don't misunderstand me." Su Yujin spoke with some difficulty.
He Yanxiu, "???"
What does that mean? Su Yujin emphasized that she is a woman...
Thinking of the ridiculous rumors in the capital in the past, He Yanxiu immediately understood what Su Yujin meant.
He Yanxiu, "!!!!"
In excitement, He Yanxiu didn't even chew the glutinous rice balls in his mouth. They slipped directly into his throat, choking him so much that he almost couldn't breathe. He could only cough violently for a while.
It was not until the glutinous rice dumpling completely slid down his throat into his stomach that He Yanxiu finally caught his breath and looked at Su Yujin with a complicated expression.
No wonder he always felt that even if he hadn't said anything, based on what he had done, Su Yujin should have noticed something.
As a result, Su Yujin always respected him, but always kept a certain distance. It was not because of the reservedness of a woman, but because she had always been very determined to identify the man she liked, and believed in it without a doubt, so...
What should I do? Should I prove that I like a girl and that I am a normal man? But...
How to prove it?
He Yanxiu blushed a little.
Seeing He Yanxiu's strong reaction, Su Yujin realized that she had said something inappropriate in the heat of the moment, which made He Yanxiu very embarrassed. She hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Second Master, I was a little blunt. I just..."
Afraid of something happening!
He Yanxiu, "..."
"It's okay." He Yanxiu waved his hand, "You don't have to worry about it. I won't take it to heart..."
The Second Master is indeed a benevolent Second Master! Su Yujin felt relieved and breathed a long sigh of relief, "Thank you, Second Master."
"It's just..." He Yanxiu felt that he had to explain.
He couldn't let the misunderstanding continue, otherwise he would really have no chance.
"Second Master." Xing'an walked in, looked at Su Yujin, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
He Yanxiu glanced at Xing'an and said, "Just say it if you have something to say."
"The people and things that Second Master wants are ready. Would you like to go and take a look?" Xing'an answered truthfully.
"Then..." He Yanxiu had just finished speaking when he saw Su Yujin's gossipy face.
He Yanxiu, "!!!!"
