Chapter 340 Takes Effect
Manbao ran home quickly. When he passed by the kitchen, he first grabbed an empty bowl and then ran back to his room.
She took a deep breath, took out the tube of dark green potion, opened it under Koko's guidance, and poured the potion into the bowl.
It was dark green, like the juice squeezed from grass. Manbao smelled it curiously and found a faint fragrance.
Manbao confirmed with Keke again, "Drink it directly?"
"yes."
"Are there any dietary restrictions?" Every time her mother changed the medicine, there were many things she couldn't eat to avoid mixing them up.
"No."
Manbao felt relieved and carefully took the bowl to find his mother.
Qian's cough was quite severe, so she had to stop taking the medicine. She was very depressed by the two diseases, so she didn't go anywhere and just lay in bed.
She was coughing when Manbao came in. When she saw Manbao, she covered her lips and waved at her. She tilted her head to the side and after she finished coughing, she turned around and said, "Didn't I tell your sister-in-law that I'm sick? You little ones shouldn't come in. What if I get sick?"
The weather is a bit cold now, and Qian felt that her illness was caused by catching a cold, so the doors and windows were closed. There was no light in the house and it was very dark.
Manbao had never thought of disguising the potion. When Koko was still helping her plan how to conceal and persuade Qian to drink the potion, she directly came forward with the bowl and said, "Mom, this is for you."
Qian didn't even look at the contents of the bowl. She just took it and drank it, just wanting Manbao to leave as soon as possible.
After drinking it, I felt that the taste was a little off and asked, "If it's not water, what is it?"
She looked down at this moment and saw only green water stains on the wall of the bowl.
"It's medicine, mother. You will get better after taking it." Manbao took the bowl and went out. He poured some water in the kitchen, stirred it with chopsticks, and asked his mother to drink the water used to wash the dishes.
Qian: ...
Although I don’t know where my daughter got these things, I just drank them. It’s just water anyway.
Qian took the water and drank it, then handed the bowl to her and waved, "Go out quickly."
Manbao was not willing to go out, but squatted beside the bed and looked at his mother seriously. After a long time, he could not see any difference.
Seeing that she couldn't drive her away, Qian had no choice but to let someone from outside come in and carry Manbao out.
Manbao said, "There's no one at home, so please don't shout, no one else can hear you."
Qian asked her with a fierce face, "Are you going out?"
Manbao suggested, "Mom, you should go out for a while too. It's boring to stay in the house all the time."
Mainly, she wanted to observe her mother's condition after taking the medicine in a bright place. It was strange, shouldn't this kind of magic medicine cure the body instantly?
Why is her mother still coughing?
Seeing that she couldn't drive Manbao away, Qian had no choice but to get up and go out.
It was a little cold outside, but the wind blew by, making her feel refreshed. Qian felt a little better. She couldn't help feeling depressed when she always stayed in the dim and murky room.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion because I’m in a good mood, but Qian always feels that her body doesn’t feel so heavy when she goes out.
Manbao helped his mother sit on the doorstep, then squatted in front of her and stared at her face.
Qian looked at her and laughed, "What are you looking at? Don't you recognize your mother?"
"Mom, after drinking the medicine, do you feel lighter and more refreshed?"
Qian covered her lips and coughed twice, then said with a smile, "This medicine isn't given by a god, how can it be so effective? By the way, where did you get the medicine just now?"
“I bought it with my friend.”
Qian didn't doubt it at this moment, and asked with a smile: "Which friend did you buy it from? Does he know medicine?"
Manbao thought Keke was the most amazing person in the world. He knew everything. If he didn't know something, he could just search the encyclopedia. So she nodded and said, "He knows everything."
Manbao's eyes suddenly lit up as he finished speaking, "Mom, you're sweating!"
Qian wiped her forehead and felt a little hot. She nodded and said, "Yes, it's late autumn and winter is coming soon. Why is it suddenly hot?"
Qian felt a little thirsty, so Manbao immediately and attentively poured her some water.
Qian drank a bowl of water, but still felt dry in the mouth. She couldn't help but frown, "Manbao, feel your mother's forehead to see if it's hot."
Manbao immediately stretched out his little hand to feel it, and took the opportunity to look at his mother's eyes and tongue, then he grabbed her hand and said, "Mom, let me feel your pulse."
Although Qian never stopped her daughter from taking her pulse, deep down she did not trust her self-taught medical skills.
But she had no other choice at the moment and could only let her touch her. Manbao closed his eyes slightly and felt the changes in his mother's body.
The pulse was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, but after each change it slowly became stronger, completely different from the previous weakness.
Manbao's other hand gently tapped her knee, in sync with Qian's pulse, and unknowingly her mood became more and more excited.
She thought this green potion was very useful.
At least that's what's seen from the changes in pulse.
Qian was sweating profusely. She felt that she must have a fever, which was a more serious illness than a cough and could easily lead to her dying from the fever.
So she kept drinking water and kept visiting her daughter, but she found that Manbao seemed very happy?
Qian paused in drinking water and suddenly she wasn't in such a hurry anymore.
The mother and daughter took the patient's pulse while he drank water until Xiao Qian and the others returned from the fields.
They went to the vegetable garden to harvest vegetables, and by the way, they dug up some ginger and yam from the wasteland, leaving them for Zhou Silang and others to take to the county town tomorrow.
Little Qian was the first to notice that something was wrong with Qian, "Mom, why are you sweating so much?"
She also thought Qian had a fever, so she reached out to touch her forehead, but found that it was not very hot, but seemed to be slightly hot. She was a little undecided and asked, "Mom, do you want to go inside and lie down for a while?"
"No," it was Manbao who refused, "It's so stuffy in the room, Mommy wants to get some fresh air here."
Xiao Qian patted her shoulder and said, "Why are you sick? Hurry up and help your mother back to the house."
Qian waved her hand weakly and said, "Old Wife, don't worry about these things for now. Go make me a pancake first. I'm a little hungry."
Not to mention Xiao Qian, Feng and others behind him also opened their mouths wide.
Qian's health was not good, so she seldom ate hard foods like pancakes.
When Manbao heard this, she immediately took out a candy from her pocket and stuffed it into her mother's mouth. Yes, how could she forget that she had to eat more to fight the disease. After all, she needed a lot of calories, right?
Qian no longer had the heart to visit her daughter. She felt very hungry. The feeling of hunger had been with her for many years, but this time it was different from the previous years. It was more like the natural disaster ten years ago. She was so hungry that she saw stars and wanted to eat everything she saw...
