Chapter 119
Chen Zhaoyue politely declined the young soldier's offer: "Forget about the snake soup. If you can open a complete snake gallbladder, you can preserve it and send it to me."
Snake soup is a traditional Cantonese dish. The main ingredients are various snakes such as cobra and water snake, and are supplemented with shredded chicken, wood ear, shiitake mushrooms, tangerine peel and other auxiliary ingredients. It is made through multiple processes such as peeling and stewing. It has a fresh and fragrant taste and nourishing effects. It is often used to improve rheumatism and regulate metabolism.
Chen Zhaoyue had heard of snake soup, but had never eaten it.
Chen Zhaoyue was not afraid of snakes, which were cold-blooded animals, but she found it difficult to open her mouth when asked to eat a snake.
However, snake gall is a good thing and can be used as medicine after processing.
Anyway, the little soldier was just eating the snake soup, so he had no need for the snake gallbladder. It would be a waste to throw it away, so it would be better to give it to her and let her use it.
Chen Zhaoyue thought of something and told the young soldier: "Snakes live in the wild and have parasites on their bodies. Don't eat raw snake meat during field training. Don't listen to folk remedies and swallow snake gall bladder raw because you think it's a good thing. Doing so will easily cause parasitic diseases."
The young soldier blushed and nodded in agreement.
The young soldier couldn't help but wonder which direction Captain Wen was bowing his head to. He was such a fierce and cold person, but he actually married such a beautiful and gentle wife like Doctor Shen.
Chen Zhaoyue stopped talking to the young soldier and extended her hand towards Wen Qing.
Wen Qing had been living in the health center for so many days that he had long been accustomed to having his pulse taken once in the morning and once in the evening, and to Chen Zhaoyue's advice to him to drink plenty of water at each of his three meals a day.
As soon as Chen Zhaoyue extended her hand, Wen Qing automatically reached out his hand, but he was unforgiving and complained impatiently: "I don't know what's so good about feeling this pulse. You have to feel it twice a day. I think I'm strong enough to kill a cow now."
Thanks to the blessing of the spiritual spring, Wen Qing's injuries have almost healed, and the remaining snake venom in his body has almost been discharged.
There was a faint smile on the corner of Chen Zhaoyue's mouth, but that smile clearly did not reach her eyes. She hated patients who were self-righteous and did not listen to the doctor's advice the most.
Chen Zhaoyue's voice was gentle and soft, "Confidence is a good thing, but blind confidence will only hurt yourself."
Wen Qing was confronted and opened his mouth to refute, but before he could even utter a syllable, he heard Chen Zhaoyue say, "You can be discharged from the hospital and go home to recuperate, but it's best not to do strenuous exercise in the next two weeks."
Wen Qing felt that living in the hospital was restricted and he had no freedom because he was being watched by doctors and nurses all day. It just so happened that Chen Zhaoyue was tired of his arrogance and was too lazy to serve the young master, so she simply discharged him from the hospital.
The investigation into the snake group fell into a lull. Wen Qimin had the rare opportunity to visit Wen Qing at the health center. Just as he reached the door of the ward, he heard Shen Zhaoyue say that Wen Qing could be discharged.
Wen Qimin's face darkened. His first reaction was that Wen Qing was not cooperating with Shen Zhaoyue's work. He was seriously injured and was still causing trouble in the hospital. He took a few steps forward and slapped Wen Qing on the back of the head.
Wen Qimin scolded, "You stinky boy, didn't I tell you to listen to your aunt and cooperate with the doctor's treatment?"
Wen Qing covered the back of his head and took a deep breath. This was the first time he had seen Wen Qimin since he woke up. He wanted to act pitiful and remind Wen Qimin of the relationship between them as grandparents and grandchildren, but what awaited him was an indiscriminate scolding.
Wen Qing was really aggrieved: "Grandpa, can you please listen carefully to what Doctor Shen said before you take action?"
Although he is an old man, he still has such a hot temper. He will start fighting without giving people a chance to react.
Wen Qing knew that Wen Qimin didn't come to see him, not because he didn't care about him, but because Wen Qimin had more important work to do.
Wen Qing never blamed Wen Qimin for being too busy with work to take care of him, but this slap made him doubt whether Wen Qimin really didn't care about his injury at all.
Wen Qimin glared at Wen Qing and said, "If you listened to your aunt, why did she kick you out of the hospital?"
Seeing Wen Qimin about to kick Wen Qing again, Chen Zhaoyue hurried forward and grabbed Wen Qimin's arm: "Uncle, I let Wen Qing leave the hospital not because he made me angry, but because he is in a good condition now and can go home to recuperate."
Chen Zhaoyue could see that Wen Qimin was really worried about Wen Qing's health, so he patiently told Wen Qimin about Wen Qing's current situation in detail.
Chen Zhaoyue said: "You still need to pay attention to your diet. Don't eat raw, cold or spicy food. Get enough rest and don't overwork yourself. Especially don't do strenuous exercise in the next two weeks. Come to the health center for a checkup in two weeks. If there is no problem then, we can slowly resume exercise."
After listening to Chen Zhaoyue's words, Wen Qimin saw Wen Qing's rosy face, and he was completely relieved.
A smile appeared on Wen Qimin's serious face, and he patted Wen Qing on the shoulder with his rough palm: "I was wrong about you! You can save your life thanks to your aunt. Why don't you say thank you quickly?"
Wen Qing grimaced after being slapped twice by Wen Qimin. He looked at the side awkwardly and thanked Shen Zhaoyue reluctantly: "It is your job as a doctor to save the dying and the wounded. I know you would do your best to treat anyone bitten by the snake this time, but I am a person who knows how to be grateful. Thank you for saving my life!"
Wen Qing added, "But you can't keep talking about it just because you saved me once. I'm out of the hospital now, and we're even now."
Wen Qing admitted that Chen Zhaoyue's medical skills were quite impressive. He had been poisoned by a mixed snake venom of that level, and even if he went to the military headquarters, he would not be able to recover without lying down for a month or so.
But Chen Zhaoyue cured him in just one week. Just for this reason, anyone would kneel down and kowtow to her.
But kneeling and kowtowing were all dregs of the old society. Chen Zhaoyue's family background was not good to begin with. Wen Qing felt that he had already expressed his gratitude sincerely, and her requests should not be too much.
Chen Zhaoyue looked at Wen Qing as if he were a fool, and said to Wen Qimin, "Uncle, next time you beat Wen Qing, don't hit him on the head. He'll be stupid if you hit him directly on the mouth. It hurts, but it will teach him a lesson and he'll know not to talk nonsense."
Wen Qing was furious when he heard this: "You woman have such a vicious heart!"
Chen Zhaoyue smiled at him: "How about I give you two injections right now, so you can also taste the feeling of being unable to speak? That way, next time uncle hits you, he can find the right spot!"
Wen Qing suddenly felt like a duck being strangled by the neck. He stared at Chen Zhaoyue with wide eyes, but dared not speak out.
Chen Zhaoyue smiled with her eyes curved. To be honest, considering Wen Qing's naive and playful personality, taking him for a walk was as easy as walking a dog.
Seeing that Wen Qing had become obedient, Chen Zhaoyue asked Wen Qimin to take him back now: "Go and get discharged now, go back and have a good rest, and come to the health center to find me if you feel unwell."
After saying that, she went outside to find Li Xiaojuan and told her that Wen Qing might be discharged from the hospital soon.
Liu Siyu didn't dare to show her presence in front of Wen Qing these days. When she heard Chen Zhaoyue say that Wen Qing was going to be discharged from the hospital, she sat in the corner and looked towards Wen Qing's ward, feeling very unwilling.
Liu Siyu thought that as long as Wen Qing stayed in the hospital, she would have more opportunities to get close to Wen Qing, perform well in front of him, and make him more obsessed with her. Unexpectedly, her favorability value dropped before she even started to perform, and it dropped three times in a row.
The lowered favorability value directly restricted all her actions, and she could only watch the opportunity she had worked so hard to get slip away before her eyes.
Wen Qing was taken home by Wen Qimin, so there was no need for Chen Zhaoyue to be on duty.
While having dinner in the evening, Chen Zhaoyue suddenly remembered that Wen Qing's stepping on the snake's nest was suspicious, so she told Wen Yanxi about it.
"Uncle, I think Wen Qing stepping on a snake's nest during this field training might not be an accident."
