As soon as Tong Xiang opened his eyes, he was greeted by Chu Xiao, who was reading a book at the table.

The sun shone through the window, softening the edges of his side face and making him look a little more gentle.

Tong Xiang, who was originally in a daze, couldn't help but be a little fascinated when he saw Chu Xiao like this, and the sleepiness just now was completely gone.

Perhaps feeling the gaze behind him, Chu Xiao closed the page in front of him and slowly turned around.

"Awake?"

The gentle voice made Tong Xiang's heart move, and he turned his head a little shyly, and responded softly, "Hmm." ”

"When you wake up, let's go get something to eat."

Chu Xiao's expression did not change, and after finishing speaking, he shifted his attention to the book again.

Tong Xiang had regained his composure at this time, "Why did you get up so early, what kind of book are you reading?" ”

Chu Xiao paused when he heard this, and responded calmly: "I read a few ancient medical books to see if there is any record of this flower. ”

After finishing speaking, a smile suddenly appeared on Chu Xiao's face.

"I'll add that I didn't wake up very early, but you were too late."

After hearing the previous sentence, Tong Xiang's heart was full of emotion, she didn't expect Chu Xiao to be so hearted.

Just after listening to the second half of the sentence, she couldn't calm down.

"I've already discussed it with the herb pickers, and a few mornings they came to deliver the goods, and I actually slept."

While speaking, Tong Xiang hurriedly ran towards the outside of the house.

She had just gone downstairs when her arm was grabbed by Chu Xiao.

"Don't be nervous, I've already taken care of these things for you."

"You?" Tong Xiang couldn't believe his ears.

It's not that she doesn't believe in Chu Xiao's ability, it's just that she's not used to bothering others to do things for herself.

Hearing this, Chu Xiao slowly got up and nodded seriously, "Don't worry, I still know a little about these things." ”

After finishing speaking, he saw that the doubts on Tong Xiang's face had not yet dissipated, so he continued to add: "If you are not at ease, you can check it again after eating." ”

"No, no, no, I didn't mean that." Listening to Chu Xiao's words, Tong Xiang hurriedly explained. "I just didn't react for a while, I don't worry about you doing things."

At lunchtime, the family sat together in a harmonious atmosphere.

At the dinner table, Li glanced at Tong Xiang from time to time, as if he had any questions, but he didn't ask for a long time.

Tong Xiang saw that Li Shi wanted to speak again, put down his chopsticks, looked at Li Shi and smiled.

"Mother, if you have any questions, just ask."

Li smiled awkwardly when he heard this, but before he could say anything, his face was already a little red.

"Xiang'er, what did you do last night, why did you get up so late today?"

Although the Li family intends to match Tong Xiang and Chu Xiao, but after all, there is no name now, and the lonely man and widow live together, if something really happens, she can stop the loss in time.

Tong Xiang didn't think so deeply, she chuckled lightly, and responded cheerfully: "There are some things in the medicine hall, I slept a little late last night." ”

Chu Xiao understood the meaning of Li's words, and he looked at Li and smiled slightly.

"Madame, don't worry."

Hearing the answers of the two people, Li was also a little relieved.

She pulled a few mouthfuls of rice into her mouth to hide her embarrassment.

After eating, Tong Xiang and Chu Xiao sat in the store.

Tong Xiang treated the patients who came to see the doctor, and Chu Xiao sat on the side and continued to read the medical book.

After seeing a wave of patients, Tong Xiang had just rested, but a lady with a yellow face and thin muscles suddenly ran over with the dying child in her arms.

Tong Xiang hurriedly hugged the child when he saw this scene, and his face became serious.

"What's wrong with the kid?"

"Doctor, you must save my child, he was able to respond when he called him two days ago, but he didn't react when he called him today."

Tong Xiang patiently diagnosed and treated the child, and when she touched the child's thin body, she was really anxious.

"How long has it been since the child has eaten enough?"

Looking at the child's appearance, Tong Xiang's heart almost counted.

Hearing Tong Xiang's question, the woman turned sideways slightly.

"Doctor, is the child still saved?"

The lady eagerly grabbed Tong Xiang's hand, tears welling up in her eyes.

Tong Xiang took out a bottle of glucose from his ancient ring to dissolve, fed the child and drank it.

In fact, the child's condition is not so bad, but he has not eaten enough for too long, his blood sugar is too low, and he faints.

After feeding the child and taking the medicine, Tong Xiang called the woman aside, took out some silver taels from the counter, and stuffed them into her hands.

"I don't know what the situation of your family is, but you must not treat the child badly, the child is still so young, and the nutrition must keep up."

"This, how can this work?"

Madame hurriedly pushed the money back, and although she was indeed poor, she did not eat the food that came to her.

Tong Xiang's face suddenly became serious, "Do you think now is the time to be strong, if your son is hungry again, it will not be so simple next time." ”

"Then thank you Dr. Tong, I will definitely return the money to you in the future."

The corners of Tong Xiang's mouth hooked up a light smile, but he didn't say anything more.

Perhaps it was because she always felt some empathy when she saw this woman recall the memories of the original owner.

So even if she is not rich now, she is willing to do what she can for these people.

Chu Xiao glanced at Tong Xiang from a distance, lowered his head and smiled, and continued to read his book.

After a short rest, the boy woke up, and he slowly opened his eyes.

When his eyes touched his mother, a smile appeared on his dark face.

"Mother, where are we?"

The woman hurriedly walked over and hugged her child, "Jun'er, thank you Dr. Tong, she saved you, you must repay Dr. Tong in the future, you know?" ”

"Hmm." The boy didn't ask much, he looked Tong Xiang up and down, and nodded seriously.

was thanked like this, Tong Xiang was a little uncomfortable.

She coughed lightly twice, "Pay attention to rest when you go back, and eat something delicious." ”

After sending his wife away, Tong Xiang felt warm in his heart.

After opening this medicine hall, she was indeed a little tired, but she also felt happy to see those patients smiling because of herself.

It's just that it didn't take long for an uninvited guest to come to the medicine hall.

"Doctor Tong, don't come unharmed."

A familiar voice sounded in his ears, although a little immature, but the tone was very provocative.

Tong Xiang raised his head and put away the smile on his face, with a little coldness in his eyes.

"Yo, isn't this the hall master of Rende Hall, why do you have time to come to my small place?"

Chu Xiao also walked over to this side when he heard the voice, "It's a long way to go." ”

"You two don't have to be cowardly, if you two didn't walk fast last night, maybe we would have been able to get together in Rende Hall, what do you say, Doctor Tong?"

The boy was not polite, and walked straight to the square table in the hall and sat down.

"That's how Dr. Tong treats guests? Don't even have a cup of tea? ”

Tong Xiang looked at the little boy's appearance, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a playful smile, "Tea is naturally available, but what did the hall master's previous sentence mean?" ”

While speaking, Tong Xiang sat opposite the boy.

"Ming people don't say secret words, if Dr. Tong has anything to ask, he can't help but say directly, you said that you broke into Rende Hall this night, if you are caught, wouldn't it be a joke?"

At this, the boy sneered, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

Although Tong Xiang's face did not change, he had some respect for this boy in his heart.

At a young age, he has already managed such a large medicine hall, and he can find out his details in a short time.

They didn't leave any flaws last night, but he was able to come to the door so quickly.

"Drink tea."

Just as Tong Xiang was about to open his mouth to respond, Chu Xiao put the tea in front of the two of them.

But he quickly retreated, and he believed that Tong Xiang would take care of these things.

The boy didn't ask any more questions, picked up the tea and drank it.

"Dr. Tong has good taste, and this West Lake Longjing is exactly what I like."

Tong Xiang looked at the boy and didn't know what he was planning, so he sneered.

"If there is anything in the hall master, let's say it directly, I, Tong Xiang, think that I am worthy of my heart, and I will never allow others to slander what I have not done."

After finishing speaking, Tong Xiang put the teacup in his hand on the table, and the tea in the cup was poured out.

The tea had just been boiled, and Tong Xiang's hands turned red in an instant, but her eyes were still staring at the boy coldly, as if it was someone else's hand that was burned.

The boy couldn't help but be a little surprised when he looked at Tong Xiang like this, but he was by no means an idle person to be able to run such a large medicine hall.

He chuckled, "Doctor Tong, the tea is so hot, you still have to be careful." ”

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Tong Xiang to say anything more, the boy opened his mouth again.

"Dr. Tong, I won't pursue what happened last night, and I want to discuss something with you today."

The boy sat up straight, but his legs were dangling under the chair, swaying at will, looking a little childlike innocence.

Tong Xiang naturally wouldn't relax her vigilance because of his appearance, she smiled at the corner of her mouth, and responded softly: "Dare to ask what?" ”

Tong Xiang really couldn't figure out what else to say between the two of them except for what happened last night.

The boy's expression suddenly became serious, and his drooping legs stopped moving, as if he were an adult.

"I heard that Dr. Tong also has studied the white flowers on the grave, I wonder if I can tell you one or two?"

Tong Xiang stared at the boy for two seconds, the corners of his lips rose slightly, "It's just nonsense." ”

"What? Rendetang is also interested in this flower? Tong Xiang stared at the boy with a smile on the corner of his mouth and asked rhetorically.

The boy sighed lightly, but his eyes were full of pride, "I advise the girl not to bother anymore." ”

With that, the boy jumped out of his chair.

"Thank you Dr. Tong for the tea, and I will say goodbye."
