Chapter 185
After making a cup of loquat paste, Manager Yu invited Wei Ruo in after finishing his work.
Wei Ruo and Xiumei returned to the room. Although Manager Yu was a little clumsy, he applied the medicine and bandaged the man according to Wei Ruo's request, and also put the man's clothes on.
Xiumei brought the cooked medicine in and fed the medicine into the man's mouth with Manager Yu.
It was said to be feeding, but in fact it was almost the same as force-feeding. The movements were simple and rough, but it finally got into the stomach.
Then Wei Ruo checked the man's condition again. He was still alive, but it was hard to say whether he could survive it.
"Miss, can this man survive?" Manager Yu asked worriedly. When he was applying medicine to the man just now, he realized that the man was so seriously injured.
"It depends on fate. I will go to the city to grab the medicine and ask Xiumei to deliver it. At midnight, you can fry it for me and give it to him. Then you can keep the charcoal fire in this room for him until tomorrow. Come and see me again in the morning. If you are still alive, you have made it through. If you have died, you have not made it through." Wei Ruodao.
"I know, I will guard him tonight." Manager Yu wrote down Wei Ruo's words.
Because he didn't want too many people to know, Manager Yu planned to do these things himself.
Wei Ruo looked at Manager Yu again, with more appreciation in his eyes.
In the previous interactions with Wei Ruo, he only recognized Manager Yu's work ability and attitude, but today's actions gave Wei Ruo a new understanding of Manager Yu.
However, Wei Ruo didn't say much today. Due to time constraints, Wei Ruo and Xiumei left Zhuangzi first.
Then Wei Ruo returned to the captain's house, and Xiumei went out alone, took Wei Ruo's prescription to the drug store and grabbed some medicine, then rushed to Zhuangzi, gave the medicine to Manager Yu, and returned before dark. Went to Xiaowei Mansion.
On the second day, Wei Ruo went to Zhuangzi before going to Tianqin Garden.
Manager Yu happily told Wei Ruo: "Miss, he is still alive and breathing!"
"Well, then continue to use yesterday's prescription, three times a day." Wei Ruo explained.
"Okay." Manager Yu nodded and took note.
"I'm going to have to work hard these days." Wei Ruodao.
"It's not hard work, it's not hard work. I'm honored to be able to help you. I don't think it's hard work." Manager Yu said.
Because he had to rush back to Tianqin Garden, Wei Ruo didn't say much to Manager Yu. He just made sure that the man had passed the dangerous period and left in a hurry.
When we arrived at the class in Tianqin Garden, Mr. Wang Caiwei had already arrived, but he kept covering his mouth and coughing.
"Sir, did you catch a cold?" Wei Ruo, who noticed something unusual, asked.
"That's about it. It's nothing serious. I've already taken the medicine." Wang Caiwei said.
"The weather has been cold recently. Sir, you should pay more attention. I have a jar of loquat ointment here. Mix it with water, sir. It can moisten your throat and clear your lungs, and relieve coughs." Wei Ruo held up a round porcelain jar like a magic trick
. come out.
The jar is not big and can be held with one hand. It has a white background and blue flowers.
"Why does Miss Wei carry this thing with her?" Wang Caiwei asked curiously.
"A lot of people have been infected with colds recently, and many people in my family have coughs, so I prepared some more just in case of emergencies," Wei Ruo replied.
"So that's it, Miss Wei has a pure heart." Wang Caiwei praised.
"Sir, please take some with water first. It will make your throat feel better." Wei Ruodao.
Wang Caiwei nodded, then got up and went to find the maid in Tianqin Garden to get hot water for herself. Pour a spoonful of the thick and sticky paste into the water, mix well and drink it.
There is a sweet taste mixed with the taste of medicine. It is not unpleasant to drink. It is much better to drink than ordinary medicine, but the taste is definitely not comparable to that of honey water.
After taking it, Mr. Wang Caiwei clearly felt some effects.
During the next lecture, the number of times I coughed was significantly reduced.
The other three Yuan clan women in the school could see this obvious change clearly.
During the break in class, three people gathered around and asked Wei Ruo:
"Miss Wei, where did you buy that loquat ointment? Can you tell me the place? I want to buy some too."
The person who asked the question was The seventh young lady of the Yuan family is Yuan Qiniang. The other two people beside her are Yuan Jiuniang and Yuan Shiniang.
The three of them do not have the same father and mother, but they are from the same clan, and their order is also based on the clan.
The three of them are of similar age and are the three most outstanding women of this generation in the Yuan family, so they were selected to attend Mr. Wang Caiwei's class in Tianqin Garden.
As a branch of the Yuan family, their own teacher was still far behind Mr. Wang Caiwei. Therefore, when Mrs. Yuan said she wanted to select someone from the clan to teach Mr. Wang Caiwei, all the women in the clan wanted to come, but in the end Mrs. Yuan I specially selected these three who were similar in age to Wei Ruo.
The three of them cherished this opportunity very much after they arrived, so they were very polite to Wei Ruo, who was attending class with them.
On weekdays, they wouldn't take the initiative to disturb Wei Ruo if nothing happened. They didn't ask much about Wei Ruo, and they wouldn't say a word if Wei Ruo was absent.
Today is a rare occasion for him to pursue Wei Ruo so eagerly to ask about something.
"What do you want this loquat paste for?" Wei Ruo asked.
"To be honest with Miss Wei, our grandmother has been coughing today. She asked the doctor to take medicine but it didn't feel better. I'm a little worried. I just saw that my husband's cough improved significantly after taking the loquat ointment given by Miss Wei, so I wanted to buy it for my grandmother. Try it." Yuan Qiniang explained.
"My mother has also had a cough recently, and I also want to buy her a can." Yuan Jiuniang added.
"There's no need to buy it. I'll just go back and get two more cans for you." Wei Ruodao.
"Then why are you so embarrassed? Miss Wei, you'd better tell us where to buy it, and we'll buy it ourselves." Yuan Qiniang said.
"I made this loquat paste myself and cannot sell it anywhere else," Wei Ruo explained.
"Miss Wei, do you know how to make loquat ointment?" The three of them looked at each other in surprise.
"I used to live in the country, and an old woman taught me this." Wei Ruo made up a random reason.
After the three members of the Yuan family hesitated for a while, Yuan Qiniang said, "Then we can't take what you have for nothing. How about I give you something in exchange?" It's not possible to take it for free,
but it would be a bit tacky to buy it directly from Wei Ruo with money. Yuan Qiniang thought about it and decided that exchange was the most suitable option.
"It doesn't matter. Since we are classmates, there is no need to be so polite. If I say I will give it to you, I will give it to you." Wei Ruodao.
With that said, Wei Ruo called Xiumei over and asked her to get three cans of loquat paste from the car.
Wei Ruo made quite a few at a time and carried at most one can with him, as too much would be too heavy. I also put a lot of cans in the car for emergencies.
Xiumei hurried back and soon came back with three jars of loquat paste, identical blue and white porcelain jars with white background.
Wei Ruo gave each of the three people a can.
