The president's wife with one child and five treasures is the favorite of the group

"It really doesn't look like a place with a medical center, let's go look elsewhere."

He turned around and prepared to leave this alley.

Turning around, a middle-aged man appeared at the entrance of the alley.

The man was wearing a dark blue gown with patches on the cuffs, but overall he was clean and tidy, and he looked like a townsman.

He looked at Huangfu Liyue on Mu Jingchen's back, and asked, "Are you two here for medical treatment?"

Huangfu Liyue asked Mu Jingchen to put her down, and looked at the man warily.

"How do you know we're here for medical treatment?"

The man smiled kindly.

"The girl's cheeks are flushed, her eyebrows and eyes are tired, and she is pregnant and let this gentleman carry her on her back. She must be unwell."

Mu Jingchen looked directly at him and asked, "Are you the doctor here?"

"Yes, my surname is Ding. I have opened a medical clinic here for more than ten years, but the location of my medical clinic is relatively hidden, and most people can't find it. If you want to see a doctor, you can go with me."

The man who claimed to be Ding bypassed them and walked forward.

Mu Jingchen and Huangfu Liyue glanced at each other, but did not follow.

The man surnamed Ding turned to look at them.

Seeing that they were slow to move, they did not show any dissatisfaction.

"If you are worried, you can go to other medical clinics."

After speaking, he walked forward on his own.

When he was about to reach the end of the alley, he turned around and said, "However, Mr. Huo from the medical center in front left the ancient town to visit relatives. If he wanted to find another medical center, he would have to walk a few kilometers at least."

Hearing this, Mu Jingchen took Huangfu Liyue's hand and followed his footsteps.

"Walk."

The two walked behind Dr. Ding, keeping a distance from him.

After a few minutes.

Dr. Ding led them through the alley and came to a simple house.

Looking up, there is still a wooden sign full of signs of time hanging on the upper left of the house, with the words "Medical Museum" written on it.

Just looking at this wooden sign, one can tell that this medical center has been around for some years.

The two followed Dr. Ding in.

The facilities in the room are also very simple, a wooden table for consultation, and a row of medicine cabinets nailed to the wall.

However, there was dust on the medicine cabinet, as if it hadn't been opened for a long time.

Huangfu Liyue took a cursory glance, but found nothing wrong.

This medical center is remote, usually few people come to see a doctor, and it is reasonable to say that the medicine cabinet is dusty.

Seeing them looking at the room, Dr. Ding sat down at the consultation table and said to Huangfu Liyue, "Girl, please sit down first, I'll show you the pulse."

Huangfu Liyue sat on the seat opposite him, and stretched out her hand.

Dr. Ding was very skillful in taking the pulse, and she knew at a glance that he was an old Chinese doctor, and her doubts in her heart were dispelled.

"Doctor Ding, how are you doing?"

Dr. Ding frowned, and said seriously, "Show me your other hand."

Huangfu Liyue stretched out her other hand cooperatively.

After he finished the diagnosis, he withdrew his hand.

"According to your pulse condition, cold air entering the body leads to fever, and because you haven't had a good rest, your body will become weak."

Listening to his description of the condition, Huangfu Liyue put her hand on the pulse with worry.

As he said, it is true.

"Doctor Ding, you are right, I caught a cold last night, and I didn't rest all night, my body couldn't take it anymore.

My husband and I will be on our way soon, so I would like to ask you to find a way to relieve my physical symptoms. "

Dr. Ding looked at the sky outside and said, "It's still early. Even if you want to hurry, you shouldn't be in a hurry. Why don't I decoct the side medicine for you, and then go on your way after you finish drinking the medicine. You can also rest with me for a while to relieve your fatigue."

Mu Jingchen looked at Huangfu Liyue, and asked her what she thought with his eyes.

She didn't sleep last night, and her body was a little heavy. Dr. Ding's suggestion was just what she wanted, so she directly agreed.

"Thank you, Dr. Ding, I'm just resting here with you, won't I disturb you?"

"No, this is a medical hall, and there are rooms for patients at the back."

After speaking, Dr. Ding led the way and led them to the back room.

The room is very simple, except for a single bed, there is only a set of tables and chairs.

"My conditions are a bit poor, I hope you don't mind."

Huangfu Liyue shook her head and said, "It's okay, I'm satisfied with a place to rest."

With that said, she took off the bracelet on her wrist and handed it to him.

"Dr. Ding, we don't have any cash on us. Do you think it's okay to use this to pay for medical expenses?"

Dr. Ding took it casually.

"This medicine is not worth a lot of money. You can take whatever you want. Take a good rest. I will go out to decoct the medicine first. When the medicine is ready, I will come in and call you."

"Excuse me."

After Huangfu Liyue thanked him, she sat on the bed.

"Jingchen, I'm very sleepy, let's go to sleep first."

"Well, sleep peacefully, I'll call you later."

She lay down and closed her eyes.

Mu Jingchen sat by the bed for a while, afraid of disturbing her, he closed the door and walked out.

outside.

Dr. Ding poured the medicine into the jar, and before he lit the fire, he couldn't wait to take out the bracelet that Huangfu Liyue gave him just now, and examined it carefully against the light from the door.

This white jade bracelet is of excellent quality, crystal clear, it is a fine product at first glance.

He sighed silently.

Before he could appreciate it, he caught a glimpse of Mu Jingchen walking over from the corner of his eye.

He hurriedly put away the jade bracelet, restored the indifferent appearance just now, and started to light the fire and decoct the medicine.

"Doctor Ding, let me come."

Mu Jingchen wanted to help, but he refused.

"No, you can see that you are from a big city. If you can't do this rough work, I'll do it myself."

Mu Jingchen didn't say anything, just watched him light the fire.

Dr. Ding was not very skilled in lighting the fire, and it took several minutes to light the charcoal fire in the stove.

After he ignited it, Mu Jingchen asked, "How long does this medicine need to be fried?"

"About an hour and a half, when two bowls of water are boiled into one bowl of water, it's almost done."

Mu Jingchen nodded, took out two wooden chairs by the way, sat with him and waited.

Twenty minutes later, Mu Jingchen stared at the medicine jar patiently, but Dr. Ding seemed unable to sit still.

He glanced at Mu Jingchen, then covered his stomach, and said uncomfortablely: "Oh, Mr. Mu, I must have eaten something bad, and now my stomach is full, I have to go to the latrine, please keep an eye on it first." , I’ll come as I go.”

Mu Jingchen glanced at him and nodded deeply.

Dr. Ding clutched his stomach, got up and went into the house.

Mu Jingchen picked up the cattail fan on the ground and fanned the fire in the stove just like he did just now.

……

Dr. Ding didn't go to the toilet, but tiptoed to the door of Huangfu Liyue's rest room.

He peered in through the crack of the door.

Seeing that Huangfu Liyue was already sound asleep, he took out a small piece of spice that he had prepared in advance from his pocket, lit it and stuffed it through the crack of the door.

Then, covering his mouth and nose, he went to the back door.
