Chapter 137 Diplomat He Huaizheng
After he left, He Huaizheng began to look at the small bags in his hands. This trip to Beiyang City was quite a surprise.
Old Madam Si was afraid that her three children would catch a cold, so she had been keeping them away from going out recently, but who would have thought that they still couldn't escape the cold.
More and more people in the family are getting sick, but fortunately, we have medicine at home, so if anyone feels unwell, they will take medicine immediately. It’s not so serious that they fall ill and cannot move.
The adults are fine, but the three children in the family are more seriously ill.
Juanjuan also developed a fever, and his little face, which had originally gained a lot of weight, became visibly thinner after the illness.
She lay in bed feeling listless and a little sleepy.
Si Jinchen and Ma Yang are not much better than her.
Seeing that the three children were not getting better, Sima Ming asked Doctor Huai to come and take a look.
Juanjuan looked at the small pill in her hand, her face wrinkled into a little bun, and she looked at Madam Si pitifully: "Grandma, do you really have to take medicine?"
Mrs. Si saw that her little chin had become pointed, and she felt very distressed: "Juanjuan, you have to take medicine to get better, and then you can go out and play."
Juanjuan looked at the pills in her hand with a bitter and resentful look on her face, and she didn't take any for a long time.
"This tablet is not bitter. It will have no taste after you drink some water." Old Madam Si looked at the little girl picking at the pills in her hand.
It seemed like he wanted to pick some more medicine off the pill, which made her feel a little amused and helpless.
This child is good in every way except taking medicine, which is very difficult for him.
She couldn't force the medicine into her mouth, so she considered asking Si Ming and Si Tian to try.
Juanjuan was picking up the pills with her little fingers. She thought that Mrs. Si didn’t see it: Grandpa Huai pressed the pills so tightly, how come he hasn’t taken off many of them yet?
When Si Ming, Si Tian and the other two children finished taking their medicine and came out, they still hadn't seen their mother come out, so they knew that they might have encountered difficulties.
"Brother, why don't you go?" Si Tian remembered the pitiful look the girl gave him when she was taking the medicine, and he really had no way of getting her to take the medicine.
Siming frowned. He would rather interrogate the criminals than watch a few children take medicine.
Their son and Mayang were fine, but this girl had become the biggest headache for their family.
He turned around and saw the candy on the table. Suddenly he had an idea and went to the kitchen to get some candy.
Wu Ma is still not fully recovered from her illness, but she is not seriously injured now. "General, what are you going to do?"
"Auntie Wu, could you please help me make some syrup?" Siming handed her the candy.
Wu Ma took the candy and knew what he was going to do: "The governor wants the young lady to take medicine, but will this method work?"
"How do you know if you don't try? If this girl doesn't take medicine, who knows how long she'll be sick. It will be troublesome if it becomes serious." Si Ming got a headache just thinking about it.
"Okay, I'll do it now. It will be ready in a moment." Aunt Wu skillfully used a small stove to boil a small bowl of thick syrup.
Siming held a small bowl and a pair of clean chopsticks and walked towards the room where Juanjuan was.
When Mrs. Si saw him come in, she felt relieved and quickly got up and walked towards the door.
As she passed by him, she whispered, "I'll leave it to you. This girl is too difficult to deal with."
Siming nodded slightly, walked to the bed and sat down, placed the bowl on the bedside table, and bent one leg to rest on the edge of the bed.
Juanjuan raised her big watery eyes and looked at him, her voice a little hoarse due to illness: "Dad!"
"Don't you want to take medicine?" Si Ming reached out and held her in his arms.
"Yeah!" Juanjuan said softly, lowering her head and not daring to look at him.
"What if dad turns medicine into candy? Would Juanjuan be willing to take the medicine?" Siming gently touched her head with his big hand.
Juanjuan looked up at him, her eyes full of surprise and disbelief: "Can I turn into Tangtang?"
"Well. If dad turns the medicine into candy, Juanjuan will just take the medicine obediently, okay?" Siming looked down at her.
Juanjuan hesitated for a moment, but still wanted to know how Yaoyao turned into Tangtang: "Okay!"
Siming took out the pill with a small dent in the palm of her hand, picked it up with chopsticks and put it into the syrup to coat it with a layer of syrup.
Then place it on a clean plate aside and wait for the syrup to solidify and form a layer of sugar coating on it.
Doctor Huai just arrived. He first checked on the other two children and found they were already well. Then he came to Juanjuan's room.
He also knew that this girl didn't like taking medicine, so she was sicker than the other two children.
Seeing Si Ming coaxing her to take the medicine, he didn't rush in, but when he saw Si Ming put the medicine into syrup and coated it with a layer of sugar, he fell into thought.
If the pills were coated with sugar, would they be better protected from moisture?
It can also maintain the effectiveness of the drug for a long time, and some younger children can take the medicine more easily.
Juanjuan looked at the sugar-coated pills and said, "Yaoyao is wearing her little clothes now."
"Yes, medicine is also afraid of bitterness, so it has become sweet now." Siming looked at the solidified medicine, reached out to pick it up and handed it to her.
"Now it's not medicine anymore, it's candy beans. Can Juanjuan eat the candy beans?" He handed the medicine in his palm to her.
Juanjuan picked up one and put it in her mouth, her beautiful eyes shining: "It's sweet."
"Drink some water and swallow the candy beans." Siming brought the cup of water to her mouth.
"Gudong gulp." Juanjuan drank the water in big gulps and swallowed the medicine in her mouth.
He swallowed the rest of the medicine with ease, without the bitter and resentful look he had before.
Si Tian saw Doctor Huai standing at the door in a daze: "Doctor Huai, why don't you go in?"
Doctor Huai came back to his senses and walked into the room: "Juanjuan, Grandpa will check to see if you are feeling better."
"Grandpa Huai, I took my medicine well today!" A smile appeared on Juanjuan's little face.
Siming raised his eyebrows slightly: When did you start taking medicine obediently, girl?
"Okay, okay, this way you will get better faster and you can go out and play earlier." Doctor Huai put down the medicine box and took her little hand to feel her pulse.
He reached out and touched her forehead again, and found that she no longer had a fever. Although it was a little more difficult for her to take the medicine, at least the fever had not continued to rise.
"Doctor Huai, how are Juanjuan and the other two children?" Siming waited until he withdrew his hand before asking.
"Achen and Xiaoyang are not seriously injured. They will be almost recovered after taking medicine for another day. However, Juanjuan still needs to take medicine for a few more days." Doctor Huai looked at Juanjuan.
Juanjuan's little face had a sad expression again, but she thought of something, and the expression on her face immediately changed to look at Si Ming expectantly.
"Dad, will all the medicines from now on be candy beans?"
