She grabbed a big rooster from the chicken pen and stewed it with the newly bought shiitake mushrooms.

The family gathered around the table, swallowing their saliva just by smelling the fresh smell of the soup.

Li squinted his eyes with satisfaction, looked at his daughter, and then looked at Chu Xiao who was in the wind with a jade tree on the side, and hinted: "Xiang'er, this son is really a talent, if only he could settle down with us, it would be good." ”

Chu Xiao heard the meaning of her words, and knew that she was matching herself and Tong Xiang, so she coughed unnaturally and blushed with shame.

He quietly looked at Tong Xiang with his spare eyes, but found that she didn't seem to understand, and slowly held the chicken with chopsticks.

"Mother, doesn't he live in our house? Don't worry, I'll never drive him away again. ”

Tong Hua didn't understand Li's words, and when he heard Tong Xiang's words, he also swore and said: "Mother, don't worry, I will also learn from my eldest brother seriously, and I won't let you worry." ”

Seeing that Tong Xiang didn't say much, Li knew that she had no intention in her heart, so he didn't say anything.

The four of them were eating, but Chu Xiao was depressed alone on the side.

His face was slightly gloomy, and he had no appetite for food. After eating, he went out alone.

In the middle of the night, the full moon hangs in the sky, shaking so much that people can't sleep.

Chu Xiao walked into the courtyard, moved Tong Hua's chair and sat down under the persimmon tree.

There are many green fruits hanging on the trees, which sway gently in the evening breeze, like a chic little lantern.

He lifted one up, held it in his palm, and flipped it around in boredom.

There was a slight moan in the room, which seemed to be Tong Xiang's voice.

He hurriedly threw the persimmon and went into the house.

The door of Tong Xiang's room couldn't be closed, leaving a gap.

Through the crack in the door, under the hazy moonlight, he saw Tong Xiang's eyes closed, his hands clasping his knees, curled up in a ball, and he seemed to be in some pain.

He stood in front of the door, his hand on the doorknob, not knowing for a moment whether to go in or not.

Through a door, she could still hear her breathing becoming more and more rapid, Chu Xiao gritted his teeth, and finally pushed the door in.

On the bed, Tong Xiang also woke up from his dream because of difficulty breathing, but he had no strength.

Despite all the exercises, this body still can't reach her former state. In a weak state, she didn't even have the strength to concentrate on the space and take the medicine.

Seeing Chu Xiao come in, Tong Xiang was reluctant to breathe a sigh of relief.

He walked briskly to the bed, looking at the sweat on her forehead, looking nervous.

"Tong Xiang, what's wrong with you?"

Tong Xiang raised his eyes and saw him, and it took a lot of effort to say a complete sentence.

"I seem to have allergies, you can help me bring the red medicine bottle."

Judging by the current reaction, the original owner's body should be allergic to shiitake mushrooms.

Fortunately, she had recently encountered several patients with food poisoning, so she took out some extra medicine and put it in a special medicine bottle for later use.

Seeing her weak appearance, Chu Xiao frowned, and walked quickly to the cabinet without saying a word. By the faint moonlight, he found the red medicine bottle at the bottom of the medicine box.

He brought her the medicine bottle, went and took a bowl of water, lifted her up from the bed, and sat down and took the medicine.

After taking the medicine, Tong Xiang felt that he was alive again.

She looked at the worried man on the side, his snort close to her ears, and she could hear a hint of confusion.

Under the moonlight, the man's jawline is perfect like a sculpture, and the big bony hands hold the bowl, and the knuckles are as white as jade.

Tong Xiang breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, "Thank you." ”

Seeing that her voice was weak, Chu Xiao frowned worriedly, and his voice was even gentler: "Are you better?" ”

Hearing his voice, which vibrated slightly in his ears, Tong Xiang only felt that his ears were itchy, and a strange feeling rose in his heart.

To prevent being seen through by him, Tong Xiang turned his back and lay down with a weak heart.

"It's the middle of the night, you go to sleep."

She muttered and quickly fell asleep.

A touch of clear light sprinkled on her body, shining on the back of her round head, looking a little cute of the sister next door.

She was lying on the bed all by herself, but she was just a small group, and her resolute personality was very disproportionate to her usual life.

In fact, judging from the back, she is just a little girl.

Recalling his previous emotional out-of-control, Chu Xiao suddenly felt embarrassed.

Tong Xiang's maturity in dealing with the world often makes people ignore her age. Perhaps, in some ways, she was just a child.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiao felt both relieved and a little lost. When will she hear his heart?

After covering her with the quilt, he walked out of the room alone and returned to his room, where he had no sleep.

After that, he didn't mention this matter, and when he saw Tong Xiang, he also deliberately kept his distance, and he was no longer as comfortable as before.

This morning, Tong Xiang was at home as usual when he saw a little girl dressed as a maid coming and knocking on the door.

Feeling strange, she walked up and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

When the maid saw her, she saluted respectfully, which made Tong Xiang feel very surprised.

Seeing her surprise, the maid also smiled and said, "Doctor Tong, I am the personal maid of the wife of the landlord Liu nearby." I have come today on the request of our wife to go to her home to see her. ”

As soon as he heard that it was the landlord's house, it was bound to be a long way, so Tong Xiang asked more: "Does your wife have any symptoms?" I'll get some herbs. ”

The maid thought for a while and replied, "Our wife has been suffering from chest pain recently, so I asked the doctor to see it and prescribed some medicine, but it didn't get better." I heard that you are good at medicine, so my wife wants to invite you to the house to have a look, and the carriage is ready. ”

Tong Xiang looked out of the door, and sure enough, a carriage was parked, and a coachman dressed in family clothes stood aside, waiting quietly for the two.

Listening to this description, it is like having a heart problem. Tong Xiang returned to the house, took the medicine box, and followed into the carriage.

The carriage staggered for nearly half an hour before it finally came to a halt in front of a splendid courtyard.

The plaque on the door of this courtyard reads "Liu's house", which should be the home of the landlord surnamed Liu.

The two got out of the carriage, and the maid led her through the great house, round the pond, through the corridor, and finally to a quiet and chic house.

There are a lot of jasmine planted in front of the house, and the dark green leaves reflect the white and tender flowers even more.

In front of the jasmine stand, a young woman stood. She held the shower in her hand and played with it carefully, and the jade fingers like bamboo shoots covered the flowers, which looked even more delicate than the flowers.

Hearing the footsteps, she turned around and smiled slightly, her face like a spring breeze.

Seeing that she was dressed in a first-class manner, Tong Xiang guessed that she was the wife of the landlord.

Seeing her, Tong Xiang did not salute. When the man saw this, he did not find it strange, but politely beckoned her into the house and sat down.

"Doctor Tong, come in and sit."

The three of them walked into the room and sat down at a small table. The maid stood aside and poured a cup of jasmine tea.

"Doctor Tong, this is a new batch of jasmine planted in my hospital, can you taste it." The landlord's wife smiled lightly and introduced her.

Tong Xiang didn't drink tea, but asked directly: "Madam, you said that you have chest pain recently, can you let me check it?" ”

"That's nature." The landlord's wife raised her hand as she spoke.

Tong Xiang finished checking her pulse and took out a stethoscope from the medicine box.

The landlord's wife had never seen this thing before, so she covered her mouth in surprise and asked, "Doctor Tong, what is this for?" Just finished taking the pulse, didn't you see something? ”

Seeing that she was confused, Tong Xiang patiently explained the function of this thing to her.

After listening to the explanation, the landlord's wife was still incredulous, and shook her head again and again in surprise.

After listening to her heartbeat with a stethoscope, Tong Xiang basically determined that she had a heart attack, but it was not serious. Because of the summer heat, the heat is getting stronger, so she has been feeling chest pain lately.

Tong Xiang asked calmly, "Madam, have you suffered from heart disease since you were a child?" ”

When the landlord's wife heard this, she frowned anxiously and asked, "Doctor, my heart disease has worsened?" ”

"Not really." Tong Xiang explained while packing up the utensils, "Your heart disease has never been serious, but the heat has been too heavy recently, so there will be some discomfort in the heart." ”

Immediately afterwards, Tong Xiang asked about some medicines she had taken in recent days, and then prescribed them.

"I'll give you some pills, you take one pill a day, and this symptom will be relieved."

Hearing that the illness was not serious, the landlord's wife was also puzzled and stepped forward to ask.

"However, those doctors before said that my heart disease was very serious, why did you say that it was not a big deal?"

Knowing that there was not much medical knowledge in ancient times, Tong Xiang was also very patient and continued to answer.

"Madame, although your pulse does not seem normal, I have listened to your heartbeat and there is no major problem. Here are three days of medicine, you just need to take it on time, and within three days, you will get better. ”

When the landlady's wife heard this, she said no more.

Tong Xiang took out the pills, wrapped them in reed paper, and handed them to the maid on the side.

When the maid saw the white pills, she also felt strange and said in surprise: "Doctor Tong, why does this pill look different from the ones we see on weekdays?" ”

This is Western medicine, and it does look different from those Chinese medicine pills, and it doesn't smell like a strong herb.

She explained: "It's rare, so it looks a little different. ”

When the maid heard this, she didn't believe it, but she didn't say much.

After the consultation, the landlord's wife instructed the maid: "Xiaofu, go and get ten taels of silver to Dr. Tong." Also, I'll send Dr. Tong back later. ”

The maid Xiaofu respectfully agreed, and took out a purse from her pocket, which contained a heavy ten taels of silver.

Tong Xiang accepted the purse and went back in the original carriage.

Looking at the backs of the two leaving, in the room, another maid, Xiaohong, walked out and asked hesitantly, "Madam, do you say that this medicine really works?" ”

The landlord's wife looked at the medicine bag in her hand and did not answer for a while.
