Chapter 701 Extra - Can You Drink?
Fang Tong lowered her hand that had been supporting her chin and straightened her posture: "You mean to say that this incense can help people with amnesia remember things from before?"
"Remembering things that have been completely forgotten naturally requires additional treatment, but repairing damaged memories is still very effective."
"Repairing damaged memories..."
Fang Tong knew the meaning of these words, so were the memories she had been experiencing intermittently today all fragmented memories?
Uncle Ren calmly sipped his tea until Fang Tong asked him, "How can I recover all my memories?"
"It depends on the symptoms." Uncle Ren looked at her. "Do you have this need? I can examine you."
Fang Tong quickly waved his hand: "Not for now... I'm already happy that I can sleep well right now."
After a short while, Chen Ci finished tidying up the restaurant and came out, bringing melon seeds, peanuts, fruit, and mooncakes, which he placed on the square table.
"Today isn't the Mid-Autumn Festival," Fang Tong questioned.
Chen Ci sat down in a chair and handed her a piece of egg yolk mooncake: "Aren't we going to celebrate with our fellow villagers tomorrow? It'll probably be quite lively. Today, it'll just be the three of us quietly enjoying the moon."
Uncle Ren was quite happy and picked up a piece of mooncake to eat: "I really appreciate Aci's arrangement."
The three people sat around a square table, sheltered from the wind under the eaves, gazing at the moon in the distance; everything they saw was beautiful.
...
The next morning, the village chief invited Uncle Ren to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival gathering at the village committee compound that evening, and also said that Fang Tong and Chen Ci must go.
“Old Wang’s daughter from a nearby village went to the market and got into a squashed mess that caused her water to break. Luckily, you two came to her rescue, otherwise both mother and child would have perished.”
The village chief smiled and said, "Old Wang's family specially sent over some fine aged wine; you must come and try it."
Fang Tong and Chen Ci agreed, saying they would definitely go, and the village chief left happily.
Uncle Ren leaned against the porch and slowly instructed Chen Ci: "Make some hangover soup in advance, because the three of us are probably all going to get it tonight."
Chen Ci looked at Fang Tong: "Can you drink alcohol?"
"Can."
Fang Tong knew that the villagers' way of expressing welcome was probably with wine, and besides, during the few days they were there, the villagers would come over every few days to bring food, so they had to thank them.
Chen Ci nodded: "Then try to drink as little as possible. If you really can't, I'll drink it for you."
Fang Tong looked at him and said, "You should try to drink less..."
Chen Ci was stunned for a moment, then belatedly realized his heroic act of "harassing" Fang Tong after getting drunk that night. He immediately felt a little embarrassed, scratched his head, and went into the kitchen to prepare a hangover soup.
Uncle Ren watched the two's little interaction, a smile playing on his lips, his gaze distant and deep.
...
As the sun began to set, the village chief came to call for people. Uncle Ren, along with Chen Ci and Fang Tong, carrying some fruit, snacks, and fireworks, went with the village chief.
The lively sounds could be heard from afar, creating a festive atmosphere in the otherwise quiet village.
As soon as you enter the courtyard, it's half full of people. Long tables are already set with food and drinks, and villagers are sitting in a neat and orderly fashion. Further ahead is a fairly large stage, where people are already dressed up and ready to start singing.
As the village chief led his men and women into the courtyard, everyone in the village, young and old, stood up and cheered.
Fang Tong and Chen Ci exchanged a glance, both feeling quite shocked.
They all knew in their hearts that they had benefited from Uncle Ren's influence this time.
After all, he was the village doctor who provided free medical care here, and everyone respected him greatly, which is why Chen Ci and Fang Tong also received preferential treatment.
The three were seated at the village chief's table. After exchanging blessings, the village chief received the first cup of wine, and the opera began to play, thus starting a lively dinner.
