Ling Jiheng didn't take it seriously: "Every family has a disobedient youngster. Master Cui, just rest assured and recuperate. There's no need to worry!"
Cui Jingzhong breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the kang tremblingly.
To be honest, he had fallen pretty hard. Besides the cold and high fever, he also had some broken bones in his legs.
If Cui Yujiao hadn't been so disrespectful, he would never have gotten off the bed and walked around.
Fortunately, Doctor Cheng was an excellent doctor and after giving him acupuncture for a while, he didn’t feel so painful anymore.
Ling Jiheng comforted him for a while, gave Cui Jingzhong some instructions, and then left with Jinbao.
Doctor Cheng has to stay here for two days to prevent Cui Jingzhong's condition from recurring.
Ling Jiheng said to him, "I'll have Yinbao bring you a change of clothes later. We'll go to Uncle Song's place to rest tonight."
Doctor Cheng waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, go back quickly. I'm feeling chest tightness and shortness of breath from being squeezed in this cellar."
Ling Jiheng nodded and left with Jinbao.
I went to Song Laoer's house to say hello and gave him some money for the night before returning.
Ignoring the Chen sisters' hesitation to speak, he got into the car directly.
Jinbao was driving the cart in front, while Yinbao, Lingyi and Lingsan were in another ox cart.
In addition, there was another car that Yinbao drove to pick up Dr. Cheng. It was parked outside the Cui family's cellar and left for them in case of emergency.
The car was shaking, and Chi Xingyue was in the mood to take in the morning scenery at first.
But gradually, I found that everything was white and gray, and my eyelids began to droop.
Ling Jiheng put her head on his lap and covered her with a quilt.
The teapot on the small stove is filled with steam, adding a bit of warmth to this cold winter.
Her even breathing could be heard in the car, and Jinbao subconsciously slowed down the car to keep it steady.
Dahe Village is not far from Qingshan Village. Chi Xingyue arrived home before he even woke up.
Ling Jiheng wanted to carry her back, but the ground was covered with snow, and it would be unstable to walk. If he was not careful, he would fall.
Coupled with the aroma wafting from the big kitchen, everyone's stomachs rumbled.
Ling Jiheng was determined to let Chi Xingyue have breakfast before going to bed.
Just like an extremely controlling parent, Chi Xingyue was forced to wake up from her sleep.
Although he looked reluctant, he was still attracted by the fragrant fish porridge.
He didn't even go back to the yard, but started cooking in the big kitchen.
The warm air made her feel much more comfortable, and sweat began to form on her forehead and nose.
The old lady sat aside and watched the people wolfing down the food, feeling somewhat resentful towards the Cui family.
"Tell me, why are you helping them? If it weren't for the Cui family, our Ling family wouldn't be exiled!"
The old lady naturally understood the inside story of the exile. She said this simply because she felt sorry for her grandson and his wife and was taking her anger out on them.
Chi Xingyue was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. She quickly opened her mouth to save the situation: "Grandmother, don't think so. The Cui family is very good. They are just like us. They were targeted by that person!
Besides, our lives are pretty good. We eat, drink, and sleep all day, and occasionally go out to earn a little money. No hard work, and no so much intrigue.
Look at you and my grandfather, you look so much better, you don't even look like you're in your fifties!"
A smile appeared on the old lady's face. She raised her finger and pointed at Chi Xingyue, and did not continue the topic.
After the young couple finished their meal, they were sent back to sleep.
He also said that he would not call them at noon, and they could get up and have lunch when they woke up.
Let the peach blossoms warm them.
Chi Xingyue smiled and flattered the old lady for several times before returning to Qingfeng Courtyard with Ling Jiheng.
Ling Jiheng turned around and told Yin Bao, "Go back and rest for a while. Once you've had a good sleep, go back to Dahe Village and deliver the medicine."
Yin Bao nodded, indicating that he understood. He watched Ling Jiheng enter the east room before returning to the backyard.
Shu Muyun and Ling Weicheng knew that their son and daughter-in-law had gone out at night. Although they were sure it was not a big deal, they were still quite worried.
Now that I see them return safely, my heart, which had been hanging in the air, can finally settle down.
After pushing the two of them back to the house to rest, she also had to make clothes.
Chi Xingyue told her not to tire herself out and went back to the west room.
After fastening the heavy door and drawing the blackout curtain, the room instantly fell into darkness.
Chi Xingyue took off his cloak, grabbed Ling Jiheng's wrist, and the two of them entered the space together.

Doctor Cheng did feel uncomfortable for a while after Ling Jiheng left.
However, Cui Jingzhong was a good chatterbox and soon eased the awkwardness between the two parties. He even talked about the past of Jiangning Prefecture.
Cui Jingzhong intended to test Ling Jiheng's background, but Doctor Cheng was a secretive person and changed the subject in a few words.
Mrs. Cui was not that cunning. In a hurry, she even acted a little rashly.
He took out the small porcelain bottle given by Chi Xingyue and asked Doctor Cheng to see what medicine was inside. It was surprisingly effective so quickly.
Doctor Cheng opened the bottle, smelled it, and found that it did not have the fragrance or bitter taste of ordinary Chinese medicine powder.
He poured out a little to examine it, and it turned out to be white. He had been making medicine for many years, but rarely made white medicine, so he didn't know what herbs were used to grind this powder.
He picked up a little with his fingernail and put it in his mouth to ponder. The bitter taste of the powder left him completely baffled.
Doctor Cheng did not jump to conclusions, but asked Mrs. Cui where the medicine came from.
Mrs. Cui thought there was something wrong with the medicine and hurriedly told Chi Xingyue about the medicine she had given her.
He also said: "Even the royal family doesn't have a powder that works so quickly. My master is full of talent and knowledge, but he can't let his brain be damaged."
Cui Jingzhong, who originally thought that his wife was making a fuss out of nothing, also became nervous after hearing this.
I’m afraid I’ll have some sequelae.
Unexpectedly, Doctor Cheng glanced at them and said sourly, "What that girl gave me is naturally a good thing. It can quickly reduce fever and it's not an exaggeration to call it a miracle drug.
What a little fox, come on... you didn't even tell me!"
He wanted to mention the inheritance of the Medical Saint, but was afraid of bringing trouble to Chi Xingyue, so he swallowed those words.
But I also felt more depressed, thinking that I, the "inside person", was not as important as a few outsiders.
When I get back, I will have to scold that little girl severely.
"The medicine is fine, it's very precious, even I can't make it. Use it and cherish it!"
Doctor Cheng returned the porcelain bottle to Mrs. Cui and gave her some earnest advice.
I don't know if Mrs. Cui listened to me or not, she just kept saying, "Thank God, thank God!"

When Chi Xingyue entered the space, the first thing he did was to take off his heavy cotton jacket.
I took a shower in the bathroom, changed into light pajamas, and then rushed to the newly unlocked office of the health center, got the "Barefoot Doctor Manual", and copied it page by page using the copier.
Suddenly I remembered a function on my mobile phone, which seemed to be able to extract paper materials into electronic versions.
I just don't know if it can be directly converted into traditional Chinese.
I seem to have heard before that some mobile phone systems support the option of traditional Chinese characters.
