Chapter 76 Cooking Medicine



"Mr. Zhou, is it not possible?"

"This job is really not difficult. Let Gu Xiangbei cook it himself. He will also know how difficult it is to make this bowl of medicine. He will cherish it, do a good job of recovery, and not give up on himself."

Zhou Laodao: "I don't have any objections. It's just one more person cooking medicine in the backyard."

Just as Jiang Xiaoqiao smiled, she heard Mr. Zhou say "but".

"However, Gu Xiangbei is not very mobile right now. Can he come here to cook the medicine?"

"If he cooks the medicine at his house, you have to go over and help him out. Wouldn't I, an old man, be the only one left in the clinic?"

Jiang Xiaoqiao thought about it and decided that this was not a difficult task.

Although she had the sudden idea of cooking the medicinal food, Jiang Xiaoqiao had already thought of a solution. She had already bought the wheelchair and just needed an excuse to use it.

As for why this idea suddenly popped up in my mind, it was mainly because my hands were a little tired from fanning myself.

Also, when she went to deliver the medicinal food these two days, she saw Gu Xiangbei sitting on the bed with a fragile expression, and Jiang Xiaoqiao felt a little bit sorry for him.

Gu Xiangbei is not the kind of person who stays quietly in the room. He should not be trapped in a small world, but should live in the vast world.

Jiang Xiaoqiao said, "This is easy. I can handle it. I'll definitely let Gu Xiangbei come to the clinic and make his own medicine."

"That's right, hehe." Jiang Xiaoqiao laughed as obscenely as 5200.

"Mr. Zhou, I need to take a leave of absence tomorrow morning to go to the city, but don't worry, I will be back before lunch."

"I'm not in charge of asking for leave. Go talk to the captain yourself."

"Then, I'll go talk to the captain tonight?"

"Just go ahead. I'm still waiting to see if you can find a way to get that guy Gu Xiaosi to come to the clinic to make medicine."

"Hey, just wait and see tomorrow."

After the matter was settled, Jiang Xiaoqiao looked at the time and handed the palm-leaf fan to Mr. Zhou.

"Mr. Zhou, please help me keep an eye on the fire. I'll go to the kitchen to cook."

"What would you like to eat for lunch?"

"casual."

While Jiang Xiaoqiao was in the kitchen cooking, Old Zhou looked at the large palm-leaf fan in his hand, and then at the medicine stove in front of him that was simmering on a low fire.

"That brat really has to cook it himself. How inconvenient."

An old man had to sit here and supervise the medicine for several hours. Since he finished his studies, he had never personally supervised the medicinal food for such a long time.

In the past, when we were in the big army in Beijing, these trivial matters were done by the subordinates. But after coming to the Qingshan Brigade, none of the team members were willing to take this kind of medicine. They just took two or three plasters and applied them at home.

The work before him really made Zhou dream back to his days as a pharmacist.

"I'm old, old..." Old Zhou murmured. He was really old, but his hands felt sore after fanning a few times.

After lunch, Jiang Xiaoqiao stared at it carefully, and finally, the medicine was ready.

An old man and a young boy went to deliver medicine to Gu Xiangbei. On the way under the scorching sun, Zhou Lao shouted: "After delivering the medicine, go to the team leader to ask for leave. Get things done as soon as possible tomorrow and let that kid go to our clinic."

Jiang Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "Okay, I'll listen to Mr. Zhou. I'll go there soon."

What an old child, what an old child, she didn't know what touched him. Just now he was obviously reluctant for her to ask for leave, but now he was urging her to do so.

"Mr. Zhou, the sun is so strong right now, you don't have to come with me to deliver the medicine."

Mr. Zhou snorted, put his hands behind his back, and said, "How can that be possible? I still have to see Gu Xiangbei's reaction within half an hour after taking the medicine."

Jiang Xiaoqiao paused and asked, "Did you observe for half an hour yesterday?"

Old Zhou pursed his lips, said nothing, and just quickened his pace.

"Mr. Zhou, wait for me..."

This little girl, she calls you "you" when there's something going on, and she calls you "you" when there's nothing going on.

On the contrary, Mr. Zhou did not stop, but walked faster and faster.

After entering the Gu family yard, Mr. Zhou had to try hard to calm his breathing.

Jiang Xiaoqiao glanced at the old man, then reached out and gently stroked his back to help him calm down.

"Mr. Zhou, are you feeling better?"

"Huh, I'm fine!"

call……

"Let's go deliver the medicine."

"Mr. Zhou, Xiao Qiao, you're here!"

Gu Jinhua was watering and sowing seeds in the backyard when she heard a noise in the front yard. She quickly put down her watering can and walked over.

Seeing that it was Jiang Xiaoqiao and Mr. Zhou, Gu Jinhua hurried with a smile on her face.

After lunch, Gu Pingyang and the other two ran up the mountain, saying they were going to look for some fruit.

Gu Zhen was resting in the room, and Gu Yuting was staying in the corner of Gu Xiangbei's room like a mushroom.

"Auntie," Jiang Xiaoqiao said, "We're here to deliver medicine to Gu Xiangbei."

Mr. Zhou nodded to Gu Jinhua, who reddened her eyes and said, "I'm really sorry to bother you..."

Gu Xiangbei’s injury was the most painful thing for Gu Jinhua.

At present, she has no way to calm down and face all this.

Gu Jinhua's lips trembled, she wiped her eyes, and said with a forced smile: "Look at me, I forgot to ask how much this medicine should be charged?"

Mr. Zhou took a step to the side, giving space to Gu Jinhua and Jiang Xiaoqiao.

He said, "This medicine was brewed by Xiao Qiao. Let's see what she thinks."

Jiang Xiaoqiao looked at Mr. Zhou and then at Gu Jinhua. She really didn't expect such a scene to happen.

Jiang Xiaoqiao said: "No need..."

Gu Jinhua grabbed her hand holding the basket and said, "Xiao Qiao, don't say you don't need it. Our family already owes you a lot. How can you not pay for the medicine? It doesn't make sense."

As she spoke, Gu Jinhua was about to take out the money.

This money was agreed upon by her and Gu Weimin last night, a total of 120 yuan, which Gu Jinhua put in the inner pocket of her clothes.

"Auntie!"

Jiang Xiaoqiao held her hand and said, "You don't have to be polite with me. What is our relationship? We are friends regardless of age!"

"Also, you don't have to pay for the medicine. Just let Gu Xiangbei pay me."

"Don't worry, I came here today to talk to Gu Xiangbei about the medical expenses. This is something that Mr. Zhou and I have discussed."

Mr. Zhou on the side:???

However, when he met Gu Jinhua's gaze, he nodded calmly and said, "Yes."

Jiang Xiaoqiao said, "Aunt, I'm going in to give Gu Xiangbei some medicine, or it'll get cold."

"Oh, okay, then go quickly..."

In this way, Jiang Xiaoqiao took two steps at a time and entered Gu Xiangbei's room.

Old Zhou followed him, and Gu Jinhua thought about it and followed him too.

No, she has to listen and can't let Xiao Qiao suffer!

Gu Xiangbei had been waiting for Jiang Xiaoqiao's arrival after lunch. The conversation Jiang Xiaoqiao had with him yesterday gave him great encouragement.

After getting up in the morning, I took the trouble to wash my hair and change into "new" clothes.

When he saw Jiang Xiaoqiao coming in, Gu Xiangbei's eyes lit up.
