Chapter 19: Drink the medicine
"Bitter?"
Kai smiled dumbly, "As a soldier, why can't you drink a single medicine?" Isn't it just bitterness, can't you endure suffering? ”
"You have to take care of it!"
Mulan's face is like frost.
"Wait a minute."
Kai shook his head, this Mulan, when she is sick or not, she is like two people, usually like a predator, she is even stronger than a man, but when she is sick, she is like a stubborn child. It's just like his sister......
It's mine...... Younger sister......
Kai was stunned for a moment, why did I think of ...... Thinking of the word sister? I...... Do I have a sister?
Not!
Thinking too much, his head was a little swollen, Kai shook his head, drove the thought out of his mind, and walked out with a step.
This guy ......
Hua Mulan watched Kai walk away, heard his footsteps getting farther and farther away, and sighed helplessly, sighing how could she meet such a guy, holding that bowl of medicine and drinking it, not drinking it.
Picking up the spoon and scooping half a spoonful of the medicinal juice, Mulan looked at it for a while before closing her eyes and putting it into her mouth again.
Oh, my God......
It's still so bitter, I really don't know why there is such a bad thing in this world, can drinking this thing really cure the disease? You can't drink the dead, do you?
Just half a spoonful of medicinal juice in her stomach, Hua Mulan was full of excitement, her face suddenly became bitter, and the medicine bowl was directly taken away by her, as if it was a bowl of poison.
Or...... Poured it down, right?
Mulan took a look, Kai didn't know where he had gone and hadn't come back yet, and now he was the only one in the house, and if he was quietly poured out, no one should find out.
As soon as this thought popped up, it was like a maggot on the tarsal bone, which could no longer be shaken off, and Mulan stared at the bowl of medicine for a long time, struggling in her mind.
Pour it out, pour it out, it's so bad to drink......
No, it's medicine, heal, and the guy is going to be angry......
Phew!
What kind of guy is not angry, do I have to report to him, mother, what do I do? Mulan shook her head, throwing the thought out of her mind. Gently lift the quilt and tiptoe to put on your shoes.
"I got this for you."
Uh-a-cough......
Mulan immediately took off her shoes and went to bed, pretending that nothing had happened, only she knew how fast her heart was beating at the moment.
"You take this."
Kai walked over directly, holding a handful of round brown fruits in his hand, then, is it a sweet fruit?
"You take this, take a sip of the medicine and take one of this right away, so that you don't feel bitter. Take a sip of bitter medicine, don't taste it, and take one of this right away so that you don't feel bitter. ”
True...... It's true?
Deceptive, right?
Mulan will be suspicious, but this guy doesn't leave, and he has to watch her drink the medicine before he is willing to leave, Mulan is a little helpless, but at the moment she is under the eaves, she has to bow her head, no way, she took two thumb-sized sweet fruits from Kai's hand, but found that there is no way to drink the medicine with a spoon in this way.
"I'll hold it for you."
Kai holds the spoon in his hand.
Hua Mulan didn't say anything, stared at the medicine bowl for a while, and finally sighed, closed her eyes as if resigned to fate, took a sip of it, and swallowed it immediately, and then put two sweet fruits in her mouth with her other hand as quickly as possible, and then bit it down.
When the fruit is bitten open, a subtle sourness and sweet miscellaneous taste instantly permeate the entire mouth, and the astringency occupies a small part, most of which is still sweet. Covered on the taste buds that have been slipped by the bitterness.
Two, or three flavors, collided and intersected in her mouth, if it was before, Mulan would definitely tremble because of that mouthful of medicine, but this time, he could still feel the bitterness, but most of it was clear sweetness, and she didn't remember the bitterness of the medicine at all.
"Well, don't be bitter."
Kai smiled, judging from the changes in Mulan's expression before and after, he actually got the answer.
"If it's not bitter, drink all the medicine."
Kai placed the remaining eleven small fruits in the palm of his right hand, and then spread them out beside Mulan, serving as a small table for placing things.
Hua Mulan didn't speak, but just glanced at Kai with complicated eyes, then put the medicine bowl to her mouth, and took two more fruits from Kai's hand with her left hand. He took a large gulp, then ate two fruits at once. The familiar feeling once again permeated her entire mouth, still bitter without a hint of talent.
One bite, two bites......
A bowl of medicine was drunk by her five gulps, leaving some residues of medicinal herbs and a small amount of medicinal juice, and there were still three fruits left, Kai handed the fruit to Mulan, and took the medicine bowl from her hand.
"If it's okay, go to sleep, I'll get a towel for you. Probably in the evening when you wake up much better, if you still feel unwell, ask the military doctor to bring another bowl of medicine. Then you go back to sleep at night, and if nothing happens, you'll be pretty good tomorrow morning. ”
Kai put the medicine bowl down and dipped the cold towel in the water again, the water was still hot.
"You lie down, put this over your head, and get a good night's sleep."
Mulan chewed the three little fruits in her mouth, lying on the bed, her eyes watching Kai's movements, but she didn't say a word, no one was thinking about anything.
Kai smiled slightly, didn't say anything, wrung the towel half-dry, folded the towel three times in front of Mulan, and put it on her forehead.
The warm feeling spread in her forehead, and her groggy head felt a lot better at this time, plus she had just drunk a bowl of hot medicine, and her stomach was also warm and comfortable, and the sleepiness seemed to be quietly coming time, gradually spreading throughout her body, and Mulan only felt a heavy eyelid. Obviously, he was going to let him leave, but before he could say anything, he closed his eyes and fell asleep quickly.
"This guy."
Kai couldn't laugh or cry, he just put the towel on her head Okay, the medicine bowl hasn't been taken out yet, this guy is actually asleep?
But in my memory, there seems to be a person......
The hand that served the plate paused slightly, damn it, why did I seem to think of something again?
Kai's hands were clenched hard, his face was covered with beads of sweat all of a sudden, and his head felt as if it had been torn apart, why, why was it like this every time, he couldn't remember what he wanted to think about, and it was so painful every time he thought about it.
That man...... Who the hell is that person?
Kai patted his head vigorously and sat down on the stool, gritting his teeth and enduring the pain, only this time the pain came a little unexpectedly, and it seemed to be stronger than every previous time. Coupled with his own weak body, and he has been running for Mulan for so long, his body doesn't seem to be as strong as he thought, only to feel a sudden pain in his head, and his eyes are dark, so he faints so happily.
It's just that he didn't even know that the moment before he passed out, a name was subconsciously shouted out of his mouth.
Graceful...... Nana......
