"Make way, everyone! Who brought this wild ginseng? It's just in time! After testing, we're ready to administer the medicine to Old Master Lin immediately!"
Just as everyone was waiting anxiously, a group of doctors and nurses came rushing over from not far away.
They weren't trying to find out who brought the wild ginseng; they just wanted to explain the situation so everyone would know who the biggest contributor was if the old man could overcome this crisis.
The doctors and nurses in this hospital are also very good at judging situations and naturally know what these people want!
"Haotian, where did you find that wild ginseng king? If the old man can get through this crisis, we will all be indebted to you!"
Although the old man has not yet fully recovered from the crisis, the doctors' expressions just now seemed to have improved, so everyone naturally had high expectations for the wild ginseng king that the doctors mentioned!
That wild ginseng was brought by Lin Haotian, who was standing right in front of him.
Everyone here is a shrewd person, so naturally they wanted to come up and try to get close to the wild ginseng to find out where it came from!
"I finally found this wild ginseng in a deep mountain forest after searching around."
Along with this ginseng, I also brought quite a few mountain products. You all saw them just now, those mountain products and this wild ginseng—I delivered them as soon as I got them, without any delay!
"We came in such a hurry because we knew that Elder Lin was seriously ill!"
If Lin Haotian said this at any other time, people would think he was faking it.
But everyone saw Lin Haotian and his group bringing the things over.
The items were brought over in nylon bags and tattered newspapers, clearly indicating they hadn't had time to be disposed of.
When he said he came over as soon as he got the item, everyone believed him!
The reason Lin Haotian didn't reveal Lin Xue's identity was precisely to protect his daughter.
Since the items all came from his own home, he didn't want these people to bother his daughter, nor did he want to cause trouble for the classmate who sent the wild ginseng.
After waiting outside for more than an hour, the doctors poured out of the ward once again.
"The patient is out of danger. You can send a few representatives in to take a look, but don't disturb the patient's rest too much!"
"Dr. Wang, you stay here and keep an eye on them. Don't let them disturb Old Master Lin's rest!"
The attending physician explained the situation to everyone, but still wasn't at ease, so he specifically left another doctor to keep an eye on things.
After discussing it, the group decided to select a few representatives to go in and take a look.
After all, the doctor was right; the old man is currently in a weak state, and it's not convenient for anyone to disturb him.
Of course, Lin Haotian was definitely among them. As for Lin Xue and Lin An'an, they didn't go in with them because it was too late.
Besides, there are so many big shots here, the two young girls wouldn't dare to compete with them.
Lin Haotian and his group came out in just over ten minutes.
"Xiaoxue, let's go back first and come back tomorrow!"
Seeing Lin Haotian's relaxed expression, Lin Xue and Lin An'an also breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that my great-uncle is alright. As long as it's not a life-threatening emergency, with so many doctors watching over him, he shouldn't die anytime soon.
After working so hard until this late hour, all three of them were hungry.
Keep in mind that they ran out without having dinner, and now it's past 1 a.m., and all three of them are having rumbling stomachs.
"Dad, look, there's a barbecue stall over there. Why don't we go over there and have a bite?"
"Auntie and the others should already be asleep, anyway, there won't be any hot food for us when we get back!"
Since coming into this world, Lin Xue has never cooked a single meal.
Anyway, there's a dedicated cook at home, and if all else fails, there's Lin An'an, a culinary expert.
Our Miss Lin is quite pampered now, truly living up to the saying that she never lifts a finger.
Is it healthy to eat from these roadside stalls?
Looking at the rows of food stalls outside the car window, Lin Haotian wondered how many years it had been since he had eaten this kind of food.
He had only eaten out with his roommates back in his school days. He had to hide his identity to get along well with them.
Even the deepest friendships eventually fade after graduation, and with differences in status and position, I've long lost contact with those old buddies.
"Why don't I cook it when we get back? We should have enough ingredients at home!"
Lin An'an knew how much Lin Xue resisted cooking. She herself quite enjoyed cooking, but back in the Wang family, they didn't have the facilities, and they used earthen pots and stoves.
But the Lin family is different. Leaving aside their food, clothing, and daily necessities, even the kitchen equipment is extremely high-end.
Cooking is much simpler than it used to be.
She actually enjoys the happiness that cooking brings, especially seeing her food welcomed by everyone; that sense of satisfaction is the most intoxicating.
"It's okay to eat it once in a while!"
"I've never eaten at a street food stall before, Dad?"
Everyone knows that barbecue is unhealthy, but we don't eat it every day, so eating it once or twice won't cause any major problems.
What's more, the weather is still very hot now. Having some barbecue and a couple of beers would be such a wonderful thing.
Who can truly resist the temptation of hot pot and barbecue?
"Alright, alright!"
"I really can't do anything with you, but you should eat less of this stuff in the future. If you really want to eat it, have the housekeeper bake it for you separately!"
In the end, Lin Haotian couldn't persuade Lin Xue otherwise, so he parked the car on the side of the road, took his two daughters, and sat down at a stall that looked good to him.
"boss!"
After sitting down, Lin Xue waved to the barbecue stall owner.
"What would you gentlemen like to eat?"
Before the three of them even started ordering, the owner casually brought over two bottles of beer.
"Give us a bunch of lamb skewers, a bunch of beef skewers, two kidneys, a few grilled buns, some grilled chives, grilled broccoli, and grilled shrimp..."
"Dad, An'an! Is there anything else you'd like to eat?"
There wasn't a menu here, so Lin Xue just randomly ordered a few things.
"This should be enough for us. I don't want to drink beer, but could you give me two soft drinks?"
After ordering, the three of them sat for a while, and the skewers were brought out one after another.
"An'an, are you really not going to have some beer?"
Lin Xue took a bite of the grilled meat, then downed half a glass of beer; it felt incredibly good.
"No, I'm not feeling well these days!"
Lin An'an shook her head to indicate her refusal.
"Ah... I get it!"
"Then you don't need this drink. I'll ask the owner to get you some hot water!"
After saying that, Lin Xue went inside and asked the owner for two bowls of white fungus soup. Unexpectedly, this barbecue restaurant also prepared white fungus soup for its customers. She filled a bowl for herself and her father as well.
