Gu Chenghuai was able to suppress his curiosity and not ask any questions, and Lin Zhao was happy to play dumb, not even having to think of a reason, feeling very comfortable.
Under the moonlight, the young couple walked slowly, feeling the warm breeze on their faces, feeling very comfortable.
When they reached the door of his house, Gu Chenghuai said solemnly, "Zhao Zhao, I don't ask you to do anything earth-shattering. Your safety is the most important thing in my heart."
Lin Zhao raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes moving and charming, "I know, I'm not stupid."
"Yes, Zhaozhao is the smartest." Gu Chenghuai curled the corners of his lips slightly.
Due to the limitations of the times, he could not imagine that Lin Zhao had any magical thing on her, and only thought that she loved to hang out in the black market.
This is not surprising - the black market today is full of mixed goods, and if you are lucky, you can even get ginseng, so what's so strange about seeing strange seeds?
-
When Meng Jiusi got the prescription collected by his sister, he was like a mouse getting into a rice jar, his face full of ecstasy, his teeth showing and his eyes not visible.
He was not in a hurry to study these things, but first did what Zhao Zhao entrusted him to do.
Tieguzhi can cure all bone injuries.
It sounds incredibly strong.
If it can really be made, how many people can it benefit?
Mr. Meng is also a person with a keen research spirit, so he also joined in.
The iron-bone Houttuynia grows fast, and the buds in the porcelain pot are popping up one by one, which is enough to keep the grandfather and grandson busy.
For several days, Meng Jiusi, in addition to working, was busy studying the medicinal effects of Trichosanthes kirilowii.
Lin Zhao sent medicinal herbs several times in succession.
Hard work pays off.
Finally, Meng Jiusi made a few tubes of ointment late one night.
Lin Zhao got the news and couldn't wait until dark, so she quietly went to find her fourth brother.
"Fourth brother, did you do it?" She couldn't suppress her excitement and anticipation.
"Yes." Meng Jiusi nodded, speaking cautiously, "It has been tried on rabbits, and the effect is excellent. It has not been tried on humans yet."
Lin Zhao happily stuffed several tubes of ointment into her bag and said, "Your brother-in-law said he has a solution. I'll go find him right away."
Hearing this, Meng Jiusi breathed a sigh of relief.
He trusts Gu Chenghuai.
After all, it was daytime and he was afraid of running into people, so he didn't dare let his sister stay any longer and urged her to leave quickly.
Lin Zhao stuffed a bag of purple sweet potato and yam cake into Jing Mo's mouth to sweeten the mouths of her two nephews, and then left happily.
She went to find Gu Chenghuai.
"Captain Gu, Comrade Gu, can you do me a favor?" Lin Zhao put her hands on Gu Chenghuai's shoulders, squeezing them now and then. The man's tendons were firm and hard, and her hands were sore from squeezing them.
Gu Chenghuai held her hand and exerted a little force. Lin Zhao's body tilted, and she felt a surge of strength passing through her, and she sat steadily beside him.
Good job.
"What can I do for you?"
Lin Zhao carefully took out a few tubes of ointment, with a little pride in her bright smile, "The medicine is ready! Fourth brother tested it on rabbits and it works very well. We need to find someone else to try it. Do you have any ideas?"
This matter.
Gu Chenghuai nodded, "Leave it to me."
Seeing that Zhaozhao was anxious, he did not delay. He took the ointment, got on his bicycle and rushed to the county.
He went straight to Yang Yunzhi.
After hearing the whole story, Yang Yunzhi was dumbfounded.
He had a strange expression on his face. "When did you change your career to become a barefoot doctor? What? Soldiers who don't engage in medicine are not good soldiers?"
Gu Chenghuai punched his comrade on the shoulder and said, "Stop talking nonsense. I'm just an errand boy. The one who made this medicine was... someone else."
My fourth uncle has a special identity, so I can’t say much about him for now.
He then explained the expected effects of the ointment.
After hearing this, Yang Yunzhi's face darkened and he stared at the ointment with a serious expression.
"If it's true as you said, this medicine will be very useful." Every year, many good soldiers in the army are forced to retire due to arm and leg injuries. If this medicine is real, how many elite soldiers can be retained?
Gu Chenghuai knew it, "I have confidence."
He trusted his fourth uncle's medical skills.
Let’s get down to business.
After seeing Gu Chenghuai off, Yang Yunzhi immediately went to find his father-in-law who held a high position and reported the matter to him. The ointment was then sent to the hospital's top management.
The drug trial started immediately.
The first candidates the hospital thought of for drug trials were veterans who had retired due to injuries.
Li Song from the list was selected.
The family members’ consent is required for drug testing. Li Song told Li Fen about this.
"Is there any danger?" Li Fen was silent for a while before asking.
Any new drug is bound to be risk-free.
No one dares to guarantee it!
Li Song didn't want to lie to his elder sister, so he just remained silent.
"...It's dangerous." Li Fen was not too surprised. Nothing in the world is perfect.
She picked up the pen and signed the consent form.
The thin paper was handed back to Li Song.
"If you want to go, go ahead. I know you've already made up your mind." Li Fen smiled, "You've had your mind made up since you were little. You're fearless and I can't stop you even if I want to."
Li Song felt a pang in his heart, "Sister, I'm sorry..."
"What are you talking about? I'm proud of you." Li Fen knew that for some things, someone had to take the lead.
"A Song, you have to tell Xiang Xiang about this. Explain it clearly to her."
"Xiangxiang is your girlfriend, you can't hide this from her."
She also wanted her brother to feel more concerned about her and hope that he would return safely.
After all, my sister and my wife are different.
Li Song nodded, "I understand."
Time was running out, so he handed in his consent form and headed to the Dongfeng Brigade for his first official visit. He was carrying several things in his hands.
The Lin family finally saw the Li Song mentioned by Zhao Zhao——
The young man had clear eyes and a straight body. Except for some minor disability in his legs and feet, everything else was fine.
Everyone had a good impression of him.
Seeing that Li Song had something to say to Yuan Xiang alone, Lin Heling asked the family members to go into the house first and left the two of them in the yard to talk.
Yuan Xiang was startled when his boyfriend suddenly showed up.
Seeing his solemn expression, my heart also lifted and I looked at him hesitantly.
Li Song said apologetically, "Comrade Yuan, I received a notice from the hospital that they are going to try a new medicine that is said to be able to cure my foot. My condition just meets the requirements. My sister has signed the consent form, and I have also asked for leave from my unit. I will be hospitalized tomorrow. This is an urgent matter, so I came to tell you right after I finished my work..."
Yuan Xiang was confused. "What drug testing? Is it dangerous?"
"To be honest, there are definitely some risks." Li Song said frankly, "But it shouldn't be big. The worst case scenario... this leg will be completely useless."
When Yuan Xiang heard this, his face turned pale.
"So serious?!" she blurted out, wanting to persuade him not to go but swallowing the words back.
My heart suddenly warmed up, "Is it in the county hospital? I'll accompany you tomorrow!"
After a pause, she asked quietly, "Can I...can I go with you?"
Li Song was stunned.
I didn't expect her to react like this.
He originally thought that she would dissuade him and blame him for giving up his peaceful life to take risks, but he didn't expect that she would be willing to accompany him.
A warm current quietly flows through my heart.
"Don't bother, just do your thing..."
Yuan Xiang glared at him, "What do I need to do? I know what's important and what's not! I'll go with you if I can."
Seeing that the other party was genuinely concerned, Li Song did not refuse, "Okay."
After all, they were not engaged yet, and it would be inappropriate for the two to talk for too long. Not long after, Li Song said goodbye and left.
After he left, Yuan Xiang told the Lin family everything about the drug trial.
Lin Heling's eyes moved slightly, "Hmm?" He subconsciously looked at Lin Shifan and met San'er's suddenly bright eyes.
Lin Shifan clenched his fists excitedly.
This must be what he thought, otherwise how could such a coincidence happen!
He looked at his injured leg with regret - if only his legs were better, he could rush to Zhao Zhao to find out what happened!
When Song Xiwei heard that Yuan Xiang was going to the county tomorrow, she didn't ask any more questions. She turned back to the house and took out some banknotes and stuffed them into her pocket. "Take these banknotes."
"Aunt..." Yuan Xiang tried to refuse in a hurry.
Song Xiwei held her hand and said, "Take it!"
The tone left no room for doubt.
Yuan Xiang didn't dare to move again.
"Don't be so formal with me! When your uncle and I are not at home for a few days, you have to take care of everything inside and outside. I treat you as my own child, so don't be estranged from us." Song Xiwei said.
The other members of the Lin family didn't say a word, as Yuan Xiang really helped a lot after he came.
-
Lin Zhao didn't know yet that among the people testing the drug was Sister Xiangxiang's boyfriend.
After hearing Gu Chenghuai talk about the drug trial, he asked eagerly, "Can I go and take a look?"
"Why are you looking at this?" Gu Chenghuai's eyes flashed with helplessness.
He touched his wife's head and said in a gentle voice, "What's so interesting about drug testing? I will tell you if there is any situation."
Lin Zhao: Can you please stop coaxing her like Yao Bao and touch her head?
She pulled Gu Chenghuai's hand down and wanted to throw it aside, but when she saw his long fingers with distinct joints, Lin Zhao's hand control habit came up, and she was reluctant to throw it away, so she just put his hand down lightly.
There was a barely perceptible smile in Gu Chenghuai's eyes.
"How can retelling it be the same as seeing it with your own eyes?" Lin Zhao insisted.
"If it's really useful, I want to send it to my third brother as soon as possible."
Her mother told her privately that her third brother's legs hurt badly every night. He was very tolerant of pain, but since his leg injury, he tossed and turned in pain at night and couldn't sleep well.
It's come to this, how can she not be anxious?
Seeing his wife's insistence, Gu Chenghuai finally gave in and said, "Okay, I'll take you there tomorrow."
Lin Zhao was delighted.
"Tomorrow morning or afternoon?"
Fortunately, Gu Chenghuai asked one more question and found out the exact time. "In the morning."
"Okay, let's go out after dinner." Lin Zhao made arrangements, "After going to the county hospital, we'll stop by the supply and marketing cooperative. I haven't seen Sister Fen and the others for a few days."
Gu Chenghuai had no objection.
In the evening, Yu Bao and Heng Bao knew that their parents were going to the county tomorrow, and they all expressed their desire to go too.
Lin Zhao shook her head and discussed the matter with the children.
"Mom and Dad have something important to do tomorrow, so it's inconvenient for them to take you with them."
Children have low immunity, so it is not appropriate for them to go to the hospital.
Yubao was the most considerate. Although he was disappointed, he did not make a scene. He said in a crisp voice, "Okay, we won't go. Libao and I will go to work in the fields."
"I'll go to the fields too." Hengbao immediately agreed and asked his mother, "Mom, I want to drink soda!"
Why don't you look for your father? Gu Chenghuai won't indulge him!
Lin Zhao agreed, "Okay, I'll buy it for you."
Then he asked the eldest son, "Where is Yubao? What does he want?"
"I want soda, too." Yubao didn't ask for anything else.
"good."
Yubao's eyes lit up when he thought of the photos he took at the zoo. He reminded her, "Mom, don't forget to pick up the photos. I promised to let Libao and Maodaner see the peacock photos."
"I remember it and I won't forget it." Lin Zhao said.
"Hurry up and go to sleep. I'll make pumpkin porridge tomorrow morning," she urged. The twins had already fallen asleep, but the twins were still energetic. The older the children get, the harder it is to comfort them.
Tonight it was Yubao's turn to sleep on the upper bunk. He climbed up the wooden ladder neatly, lay down, pulled the small blanket over his stomach, looked sideways at Lin Zhao, and then closed his eyes, with the corners of his mouth curled up quietly.
Lin Zhao poked his cheek and said, "What are you so happy about? Go to sleep."
Yubao turned over and faced his mother. His chubby face was full of smiles, as sweet as if he had eaten a bag of food.
"I want to hear a story."
Hengbao immediately raised his voice: "I want to listen too."
Yubao poked his head out from the upper bunk and said, "Keep your voice down. Don't wake up Qianbao and Yaobao."
Hengbao hurriedly pulled the blanket up to cover half of his face, and his eyes were wandering.
Lin Zhao did not scold her son. She took the comic book, sat down on the wooden stool beside the bed, and began to read slowly.
After a while, the two boys fell into a deep sleep.
the next day.
Lin Zhao cooked a pot of sweet pumpkin porridge and steamed a few steamed buns. After breakfast, the family sent the four children to the old house, and the couple headed to the county.
When they arrived at the county hospital, they went straight to the second floor.
In the ward, soldiers waiting for drug trials were already there, and doctors and nurses were walking in one after another.
“Click!”
The door was locked from the inside.
Lin Zhao had just walked up the stairs, but before she got there, she saw a familiar figure. She was surprised and asked, "Sister Xiangxiang?"
Yuan Xiang was also stunned, "Zhao Zhao? Why are you here?"
Thinking that her cousin was not feeling well, she immediately showed worry on her face, "What's wrong with you?"
"No, I'm fine." Lin Zhao explained, "There's something else. Sister, why are you here?"
Hearing her say that everything was fine, Yuan Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the tightly closed door of the ward, his brows unconsciously knitted tight, "Comrade Li is testing the medicine inside, I... can't let it go..."
"What a coincidence?!" Lin Zhao was surprised.
"Comrade Li...are you here to test the drugs?" she asked.
Yuan Xiang looked at her, "...Yeah, what's wrong?"
"No, it's nothing." Lin Zhao comforted her cousin, "Relax, nothing will happen."
Yuan Xiang felt that his cousin's reaction was a little strange, but he couldn't explain why, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Just as the two were talking, a few suppressed groans and a few gasps were heard intermittently from the ward.
Yuan Xiang couldn't help but move forward a few steps, standing on tiptoe to see something through the crack of the tightly closed door.
Unfortunately, I can’t see anything.
Li Song's voice could not be heard either.
She clenched her fists nervously.
Lin Zhao was infected by her, and her heart began to tighten. She looked up at Gu Chenghuai beside her and asked, "How long will it take to get the result?"
The man in the white shirt stood tall and straight, with a calm expression, "Almost there."
He had asked someone before coming, so it wouldn't take too much effort.
"Sit down and wait. Don't be impatient."
Lin Zhao sat down on a bench in the corridor and asked Yuan Xiang to sit down as well. Yuan Xiang pulled the corners of her mouth and shook her head. She really couldn't sit still.
Time slips away little by little.
Gradually, a few more people appeared in the corridor, some standing, some squatting, and some pacing back and forth. No one spoke, but from time to time they looked up at the closed door, their eyes filled with anxiety.
I don’t know how much time has passed.
"Click!" With a slight sound, the door of the ward opened.
Doctors and nurses in white coats came out first. They all had stiff and dazed expressions, and their steps were a little unsteady.
It was as if he had witnessed the birth of some incredible miracle medicine with his own eyes!
Yuan Xiang looked at the doctors' distraught yet shocked expressions, his heart sank without any joy on their faces. He rushed forward with a tense voice.
"How is my boyfriend? Is he okay?!"
As if awakened by her voice, the leading doctor suddenly came to his senses. His face flushed with excitement, his eyes were surprisingly bright, and his burning gaze was filled with almost fanatical excitement.
He didn't even look at anyone else, just walked quickly towards the office.
——At this moment, his mind was filled with only one thing: he had to report this great news immediately!
