After clearing her throat, Jiang Yue said, "The old man and woman have this kind of illness. There's a special medicine now, but because it's smuggled in, it costs about two or three times the original price, and it's not easy to buy. I just happened to find out about this. If I miss this opportunity, I don't know how long I'll have to wait for the next one. It's impossible for someone to smuggle it just to bring us three bottles of medicine, since they'd be shot if they got caught."
"Xiaoyue, are you sure this medicine will work for an old lady like you?"
“Uncle, this is no problem. I took the pulse of the lady during the day, and this is the same illness. If the medicine is appropriate, there will definitely be no problem.”
After listening, the old man rubbed his hands together and asked Jiang Yue somewhat embarrassedly, "Then tell me about this kid, Grandpa?"
"Auntie, no problem. But sir, let me take your pulse."
The old man quickly stretched out his arm, and Jiang Yue placed her fingers on it. After a while, she said, "Uncle, you have some minor issues. I can't guarantee that you'll have a child 100%, but at least you have the basic conditions for having a child. The rest is up to fate."
"That's good, that's good." The old man rubbed his hands together with joy.
Jiang Yue smiled, took out a piece of paper, wrote down two prescriptions, and handed them to the old man. "These are prescriptions for you to regulate your body. There are instructions on the medication. Please keep them safe. Also, this medicine needs to be taken for three consecutive courses of treatment, and then we'll see how it goes."
The old man carefully took the prescription and put it away. "Thank you so much, Xiaoyue! Thank you so much!"
"Uncle, please don't be so polite. We're all neighbors, it's only right to help each other out," Jiang Yue said with a smile.
Afterwards, the old man gave Jiang Yue the money to help him buy medicine and then went home with the old woman. Before leaving, Jiang Yue said, "Uncle and Aunt, I'm going to work tomorrow. I'll go buy the medicine after I get off work and bring it back tonight. After you take it, go to the hospital for a check-up to make sure it works."
The next morning, Jiang Yue took off the gauze from her head. She saw that the wound on her head had scabbed over, and the hair around it had been shaved off. When she got closer, it looked like she had a bald head with a missing piece, which was really ugly. Jiang Yue had no choice but to fix her hair and put on a hat to cover it up. She didn't have any wigs prepared in her space.
After tidying her hair, Jiang Yue took out her notebook from her spatial storage and wrote down the contents of the notebook. She wondered when she might need it, but unfortunately, the space was limited. The 6x6x6 area was almost full, unlike some female protagonists who had unlimited spaces. Jiang Yue was truly envious.
Unable to resist asking 8888 if there were any other solutions, 8888 was also powerless to help. However, 8888 said that many people had reported insufficient space, and perhaps other solutions would be added in the future, which Jiang Yue could look forward to.
After getting ready, she pushed her bicycle and set off. Along the way, a neighbor teased Jiang Yue, "Xiao Yue, you fell down and you still dare to ride? Should I give you a ride?"
Jiang Yue laughed a few times: "It's just a bicycle, I've already learned how to ride it. This time it was just bad luck that some unscrupulous person spilled water on the road and caused me trouble. Don't let me find out who it was, or I'll make them pay my medical bills."
Jiang Yue gets angry whenever she thinks about it. At first, she thought it was because she wasn't good at driving, but after carefully reviewing her memories, she realized that the car slipped and fell because of the icy road. Since it hadn't snowed in the past few days, it could only have been caused by someone.
"Oh? Is that so?"
"Yes, otherwise, if it's neither snowing nor raining, how could there be a piece of ice in the middle of the road out of nowhere?"
After chatting with her neighbor for a while, Jiang Yue went out and set off on her bicycle. By the time she arrived at the factory, most people had already arrived. The publicity department was on the second floor of the office building. Jiang Yue went to the department head's office first. Department Head Li was busy, but when he saw Jiang Yue, he put down what he was doing and asked, "Comrade Jiang, how is your injury?"
"Thank you for your concern, Section Chief. It was just a fall, nothing serious, I'm almost fully recovered."
The section chief pointed at Jiang Yue and said with exasperation, "You, you can't even ride a bike carefully. If something happens, I won't be able to face your father when I die."
Jiang Yue glanced around to make sure no one was nearby, then closed the door and approached with a smile: "Uncle Li, it's not just a minor injury. It wasn't that I was careless; someone poured water in the middle of the road, and it froze into ice, which caused me to slip and fall."
The section chief's expression turned serious: "Is that so?"
Jiang Yue nodded quickly, like a chick pecking at rice. Section Chief Li waved to Jiang Yue, and when Jiang Yue leaned over, he brushed aside her hair to take a look and said with concern, "This must hurt a lot, right?" Then he took out chicken soup from his bag: "This is chicken soup your aunt made for you. Drink it before you go out."
Jiang Yue accepted the drink without ceremony and started drinking. Section Chief Li glanced at her, smiled, and then went back to handling his official duties. Section Chief Li and Jiang Yue's father were comrades-in-arms, and his wife and Jiang Yue's mother were also old classmates. The couple took good care of Jiang Yue. Because Section Chief Li's wife was a doctor, she didn't have much time. She only came to visit Jiang Yue the day before she transmigrated.
Jiang Yue's job was arranged by Section Chief Li after she graduated from high school. When Jiang Yue first came to the department, Section Chief Li helped her with her onboarding. Everyone knew that Jiang Yue had some connections, so no one dared to bully her. After Jiang Yue finished drinking, Section Chief Li confirmed that Jiang Yue was alright and let her go to work.
When Jiang Yue returned to her workstation, the others thought someone had gone to the wrong place. Only after looking closely did they realize it was Jiang Yue: "Xiao Yue? You changed your hairstyle?"
"No, I just bumped my head and the hospital cut my hair, and that's how it is."
After a while, some people got tired of the novelty and went back to work, some slacking off and others chatting. When it was noon, Jiang Yue took her lunchbox and went to the cafeteria with her colleagues. The cafeteria was packed with people, most of whom were wearing work uniforms and holding their lunchboxes and queuing up. Jiang Yue looked around but didn't see Xu Damao or Qin Huairu, so she found a shorter queue and joined it.
While waiting in line, she chatted with some acquaintances, and a few people she got along with inquired about Jiang Yue's injuries. Soon it was her turn. Jiang Yue ordered potatoes, cabbage, and a steamed bun. After paying her meal ticket, she found someone from their publicity department and sat down to eat.
Jiang Yue tried the food in the cafeteria. To be honest, it wasn't very good. The dishes were a bit salty for her taste, and the steamed buns weren't made from pure white flour; they should have been a combination of whole grains and refined grains. But considering the current situation, it was considered good; many people couldn't even afford this.
