"Then I'll let her finish this piece of candy and I won't give her any more." Han Rou asked again, "Doctor Qin, after Qingqing gets this shot today, does she need another one tomorrow?"
"We need to keep beating her, at least for three days straight." Yun Qiao said, "Do you have any ginger and green onions at home? If so, we can boil some water for her to drink. It will help her recover faster."
"Yes." Han Rou nodded and asked, "How do you cook it?"
"Slice the ginger, and use only the part of the scallion just below the white part. Wash the roots and all, then boil the water." Yun Qiao said, "Boil the water for about ten minutes. Don't put too much ginger in, just two or three slices thinly. If you put too much, the water will be too spicy, and children might not want to drink it."
"Hey, I understand. Thank you." Han Rou said, and asked Yun Qiao: "How much is it in total?"
Yun Qiao adjusted his abacus and said, "The consultation fee is 10 cents, the injection fee is 5 cents, and the medicine fee is 50 cents, so the total is 65 cents."
"Hey." Han Rou took out some money from her pocket and handed it to Yun Qiao. Then she picked up Xiong Qingqing and said goodbye to everyone: "We'll be leaving first. We'll come back tomorrow morning."
"Let's go." Gao Qian escorted him out the door.
Han Rou held Xiong Qingqing's hand and reminded her, "Qingqing, say goodbye to Aunt Gao."
Xiong Qingqing still resented Gao Qian for giving her an injection just now. She snorted when she heard that, then turned around and buried her head in Han Rou's arms, leaving only her chubby little butt facing Gao Qian.
Gao Qian was at a loss for words: "You little brat, you've already learned to hold a grudge?"
Xiong Qingqing buried her head in Han Rou's arms and ignored her.
Han Rou coaxed softly, "Qingqing, your Aunt Gao gave you the injection because you were sick. She's treating you. Treatment will heal you faster. Once you're cured, your throat won't hurt anymore, okay? Be good and say goodbye to Aunt Gao."
Xiong Qingqing was unwilling, twisting her little body and saying no.
Gao Qian just gave up and said, "Forget it. If she doesn't want to talk about it, then don't talk about it."
"Then we'll go first." Han Rou said, "Goodbye, Xiao Gao."
"Go ahead, don't forget to give her water."
After seeing Han Rou and the other two off, Gao Qian went to the clinic and said, "I used to think Han Rou was a scheming woman and unreliable, and I was worried she wouldn't treat Qingqing well. But now, I see that she's actually quite serious and responsible, and Qingqing relies on her."
Yun Qiao remained silent and did not express any opinion.
An Xiaomei agreed and said, "I also think that it's quite good for her to be a stepmother."
Gao Qian sighed with emotion: "Yeah, she seems pretty good now. I just don't know if she can still treat Qingqing the same way after she has her own child."
An Xiaomei asked, "Has she been married to Qingqing's father for a year already? As for pregnancy, she should be pregnant soon, right?"
"Less than a year." Gao Qian said, "She married Qingqing's father more than a month later than Yunqiao did. It will only be a year in October this year."
"Actually, when it comes to pregnancy, it's pretty quick. She was pregnant a month after getting married, but she's not pregnant right now..." Gao Qian hesitated for a moment before continuing, "I don't know if it's because she's young and doesn't want to have a baby so early, or if Captain Xiong doesn't want her to have a baby so early for the time being?"
An Xiaomei said, "Qingqing is still young and needs someone to take care of her. Captain Xiong might have taken this into consideration, so he didn't ask Comrade Han for a child so soon."
"Maybe."
