Of course he knew that this was an embarrassing thing. Most people would not have time to hide it, and would never seek medical treatment unless it was absolutely necessary.
But he had to come, because he was no match for Du Hong now.
What’s even more hateful is that Du Hong has been teasing him about this recently.
Fortunately, it didn't happen often, so he just endured it.
However, he couldn't bear not being able to sleep with Du Hong last night, so he made up his mind to change the status quo.
Now that he had lost face, Li Xu didn't care about losing more, so he just made things clear and told her about his recent performance in sex.
Doctor Zhou then asked a few questions, and Li Xu answered them all truthfully.
After listening, Doctor Zhou said, "Your condition is due to excessive sexual activity. You will recover naturally after two months of abstinence."
"No need for nourishment?"
"No, there's nothing wrong with your body. Your problem is that you're not interested. Just hold it in for a while."
Now Li Xu understood that having sex too much made him lose interest in it, which is why he has been so unsatisfied recently.
As long as you can regain your interest through abstinence, you will be a good man again.
But even if he didn't need any tonic, Li Xu still wanted a tonic recipe.
After all, I'm already here and I've already lost face. If I don't want the prescription now, I'll lose face again when I need nourishment in the future.
That's so uncomfortable.
When Dr. Zhou heard Li Xu's request, he didn't know what to say.
After a moment of silence, he asked a question, "Comrade, how is your family's situation?"
Li Xu didn't quite understand, "What do you mean?"
"I have to write a prescription based on your family's conditions to make sure you can afford it."
So thoughtful.
Li Xu sighed inwardly, then replied, "As long as the recipe doesn't contain rare ingredients like tiger bones or wild ginseng, it doesn't matter how high the price is."
Doctor Zhou had an idea in mind. After thinking for a moment, he took out a pen and began writing on the table. He then handed over the written paper. "This is the recipe for making medicinal wine. Based on one kilogram of wine, prepare a certain amount of herbs if you want to make a certain amount of wine. Seal the wine for a month and you'll see the effects. Drink it twice a day, each time pouring the amount into the cup that's the height of your thumbnail."
Li Xu took the paper, glanced at the content, and found that there were only a few words he could recognize.
He didn't care. It didn't matter if he didn't know the person, as long as the person who dispensed the medicine knew him.
"Doctor Zhou, is the medicinal wine effective?"
"It depends on how you look at it. If we only talk about its effect on sexual intercourse, there are many medicinal wines that are better than this one. However, this medicinal wine also has health-promoting effects. There are not many medicinal wines that are better than this one that have both effects."
Li Xu's eyes lit up. "You mean that older people can also drink this wine, and it's good for the body?"
"Well, people over fifty can add some, but it's best not to exceed two fingernails high."
Li Xu was extremely surprised to get a positive answer, and felt that he had not lost face in vain.
To be honest, he would be willing to lose face again if he could get the recipe for such a powerful medicinal wine.
After talking to Dr. Zhou for a few more words, Li Xu walked out of the clinic and went straight to the pharmacy.
On the way, he found an empty corner and took out some of the money and industrial coupons in the space and put them in his pocket.
He felt that he had just taken a leave of absence and was in the hospital, so he simply bought the herbs and went home to make a few jars of tea.
I bought fifty portions of medicinal herbs, spending a total of three hundred and twenty-seven yuan, which works out to six yuan and fifty-four cents per portion.
I have to say, this price is really high.
You should know that one portion of medicinal material can only be used to make one pound of medicinal wine. According to the dosage mentioned by Doctor Zhou, even if one person drinks it, it won't last long.
Besides, the medicinal herbs are so expensive, can they be soaked with ordinary wine?
You must use brand-name liquor that costs a few dollars per pound.
By this calculation, the cost of one pound of medicinal wine is at least ten yuan.
For ordinary people, this is simply a sky-high price, and they cannot afford it even if they have the recipe.
Even those with good conditions would not dare to do this.
After leaving the hospital, Li Xu called a cart halfway and went to the supply and marketing cooperative. He bought five small jars for storing wine, cleaned them, and used money and industrial coupons to buy 50 kilograms of Fenjiu and put them in them.
So he returned to his new house with the cart carrying wine.
After soaking the herbs in wine and moving the wine to his bedroom, Li Xu went back to work.
He was very careful while working. He did not touch the herbs directly with his hands, nor did he let the alcohol get on his body. By the time he returned to the unit, the only smell on his body had dissipated, so naturally no one would question him.
night.
When Du Hong returned to her new house, she was stunned to see five more jars in the bedroom.
Seeing her like this, Li Xu hurried forward to explain.
Of course, he wouldn't explain it so clearly, and he had to be perfunctory about what needed to be explained, such as the origin of the recipe.
He only talked about the health benefits of the medicinal wine and did not mention any other functions. He also stated that the cost was paid for by him personally.
Upon learning that it cost over 600 yuan to make these medicinal wines, Du Hong didn't say anything. She just asked, "Is this for my parents?"
"Partly yes, and partly I want to see if I can sell it."
"Even if you sell it at cost, it'll still be fourteen dollars. Who would buy it at such a high price?"
"If no one buys, we'll just drink it."
"I don't dare drink it. I'd better honor my parents."
"I have to drink it even if I don't dare. This wine is good for your health."
"I'm not even thirty yet, what's the point of raising a child?"
"I have to take care of myself, though. People tell me the earlier I start, the better the results, and it can extend my life by several years." Li Xu made up a story, then waved his hand, "I've decided. From today on, I'll start taking care of myself. I'll abstain from sex for the next two months."
