Xu Jiang had no choice but to wrap her clothes tightly and go to guard outside the door.
Soon, Lin Hongchu arrived with the medicine boy, both of them running out of breath. Xu Jiang quickly let the medicine boy in and then patted Lin Hongchu on the back.
"But our little hoe is exhausted."
Lin Hongchu calmed his breath, took a peek inside, and immediately retracted his gaze.
Worried, "Will he rely on us?"
Xu Jiang frowned, "No way."
"Zeng Zhui sounded like a monster, how could he be so weak?"
"You are still young and don't understand."
"oh."
How could he not be weak when he has been hanging around Pingkangfang for years and immersed in wine and women?
The two of them stood at the door in the wind for a long time before the medicine boy came out to call them and said it was settled.
When the two of them went in and took a look, they saw that Jiang Gu's face was the only thing that looked good, but his body below the neck was covered with sand and was bright red. Seeing this, the two of them couldn't help but shrink their necks.
Doctor Chen was really cruel when he was doing it; it hurt just watching.
The medicine boy brought writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone for Doctor Chen to write a prescription. "I'll have the medicine boy get the medicine and serve it to you later. You two stay away from it. When the patient wakes up, find a carriage and take him back to where he came from."
Xu Jiang was grateful to Doctor Chen for always considering them. "I saved that. Sorry to bother you, Doctor Chen."
Doctor Chen wrote the prescription and waited for the medicine boy to go back and get the medicine and boil it before returning to Qianjin Hall to see patients.
Xu Jiang found a thin blanket to cover Jiang Gu. After being exposed to the wind at the door for most of the day, she felt cold and a little hungry. She asked Lin Hongchu to watch over Jiang Gu from a distance while she went into the kitchen to make porridge.
The porridge is made of yam and lean meat. The yam and lean meat are diced and marinated with tapioca starch.
Light a fire and set up a clay pot. Fill with water, ginger slices, and a little cooking oil. Once the water boils, add the rice. Cook until the rice is popping. Add the yam. Once the yam is cooked through, mix it with the porridge and salt until it thickens. Finally, add the diced pork. Once cooked, sprinkle with chopped green onions and serve.
"It smells so good!" The medicine boy who was boiling medicine on the side was swallowing his saliva.
Lin Hongchu came in following the smell and circled around the pot. Yue Nu was so hungry that she hugged her legs and cried.
"Take the bowl and serve the porridge."
Xu Jiang served a bowl to each of them, including Yue Nu. The medicine boy ate in the kitchen while she watched over the stove. Xu Jiang led Lin Hongchu and Yue Nu into the warmer bookshop.
After half a bowl of porridge, Lin Hongchu felt warm all over. He sighed, "I wish I could have my boss's cooking skills."
Every time she cooked, her father would sigh and her mother would feel sad. What was even more annoying was that even Da Huang didn't care.
Isn’t it said that a dog doesn’t mind a poor home?
Xu Jiang smiled and touched her head, "I'll teach you when I have time."
Lin Hongchu's eyes lit up and she said sweetly, "Okay."
Poor Xu Jiang didn't know at this time what a terrible promise she had made. This is a story for later, so we won't go into it for now.
Jiang Gu woke up from his confusion and felt a burning pain all over his body. Suddenly, he smelled the fragrance of food, which tempted him to open his eyes.
He had only drunk a few pots of wine since last night and hadn't eaten a single bite of food, so the aroma made his stomach ache.
He looked at the two people who were eating heartily at the table and called out weakly, "Give me a bowl too."
