Changxing Hou Mansion.

Meng Jinyao was not interested in asking how the Sun family's children were feeling as their father prepared to remarry. Anyway, it was not her who suffered the stepmother's misfortune, and she would also protect her second brother.

Thinking of her second brother Chengzhang who was studying at Lingshan Academy, Meng Jinyao handed the thick winter clothes she had prepared to Qingqiu and asked her to send a servant to set off tomorrow and deliver them to Lingshan Academy.

At this time, Gu Jingxi came to her with the medicine and said warmly: "Ayao, the medicine is not hot anymore, you can drink it."

Meng Jinyao glanced at the brown-black concoction with a look of disgust. The medicine was bitter and smelly. It was a bit astringent after entering the mouth, but it didn't seem to be astringent. Anyway, it was very unpleasant to drink. She drank the medicine two to three quarters of an hour after each meal. , I felt a little nauseous and wanted to vomit out what I had eaten.

Gu Jingxi coaxed: "Be obedient, good medicine is bitter and good for the disease."

Meng Jinyao raised her eyes, looking at him with resentment and envy that could not be ignored, as if she was envious of his strong and good body.

Although they have been husband and wife for less than a year, Gu Jingxi knows her well and probably knows what she means. She is also suffering from something she cannot express. She is not the only one who needs to take medicine? I just hope that the quack medicine works, and that I don’t have to take it for a long time and it doesn’t work, and then I take it in vain.

Meng Jinyao sighed secretly, for the sake of her own health, she silently took the medicine bowl, frowned and slurped several times, drank it in one breath, pursed her lips to suppress the urge to vomit, and then handed the empty bowl to Gu Jingxi.

Gu Jingxi felt that his young wife was full of resentment at this moment. He was also used to the way his wife would finish drinking the medicine every time. He put down the medicine bowl and comforted her in a gentle voice: "Mr. Wen said that it only takes a year and a half to take it and the body will be well." , you don’t need to drink it anymore.”

Meng Jinyao asked: "Husband, do you smell a medicinal smell on my body?"

Gu Jingxi opened his eyes and lied: "No, there is no medicinal smell? You smell good."

"You just know how to coax me." Meng Jinyao glared at him and continued, "Second sister-in-law came to talk to me in the afternoon and asked me if I was sick."

Gu Jingxi was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Then what did you tell the second sister-in-law?"

Meng Jinyao replied: "I didn't say much. I just said that I have insufficient qi and blood. I need to drink some medicine to replenish qi and blood. I am not lying to her. Doctor Wen did say that I have a disease of insufficient qi and blood."

After saying that, she lowered her head a little depressed and drank the medicine for a year and a half. She was afraid that the medicine would be pickled by the smell. She didn't smell it because she was used to it. It probably took a long time, and outsiders were afraid that It is said that Mrs. Changxinghou is a medicine pot.

Gu Jingxi could understand his little wife's mood. He was also irritable when he drank medicine. He lost his appetite when he smelled the medicine, his mouth felt bitter, and his appetite decreased. He thought thoughtfully and said, "Ayao, why don't I let someone take the medicine?" Make it into pills? It’s easy to take and doesn’t taste that bad.”

Meng Jinyao's eyes lit up, and she immediately agreed to his suggestion: "Let's try something first, then let's change it."

Gu Jingxi held her in his arms and told her some interesting stories he had heard from his colleagues, making her happy. He was relieved to see her smile again.

However, plans cannot keep up with changes.

Meng Jinyao still couldn't escape the fate of being pickled by the medicine.

In the winter when she was thirteen years old, Meng Jinyao was forced to kneel at the gate of the Rongfu Hall courtyard and almost froze to death. Although she saved her life, the root cause of her illness was gone. In winter, her knees and ankles hurt.

It's the winter season, and it's not very cold yet. Although it hurts a little when you catch the cold, you can ignore it if you get used to it. It's an old problem. You can endure it and it will pass. Once the weather warms up, you'll be fine.

By mid-winter, it was snowing in the capital, the north wind was biting, and the weather was cold, so the pain level increased. When I walked around in the yard, I felt a pain when the wind blew, the kind of pain that came out of my bones, and it was uncomfortably tight. Meng Jinyao didn't like to go out of the house anymore. She kept herself warm by the fire in the house. There was enough Yinshuang charcoal, so there was no need to skimp on it.

Although Meng Jinyao didn't mention this matter to Gu Jingxi, she pretended to be nonchalant in order to avoid Gu Jingxi's worry, but Chunliu noticed her situation and quietly informed Gu Jingxi of the matter.

For this reason, Gu Jingxi also scolded his little wife, but when he saw her looking at him pitifully, he softened his heart again, took him into his arms, and softened his tone: "How can you hide this kind of thing from me? Now you are still young and can tolerate it, and you don’t take this problem seriously. You just think that if you don’t catch a cold and keep warm, the symptoms will be relieved. But when you reach the age of your mother, even if you pay attention to keeping warm and cold, the pain will still hurt. Symptoms It won’t get better, it will just be worse than you are now.”

Meng Jinyao murmured: "It's all an old problem. It was caused by the invasion of evil cold when I knelt at the gate of Rongfu Hall that year. It will be cured without medicine when the weather warms up."

Gu Jingxi pinched her little face and said in a tone that could not be refused: "I have invited Dr. Wen to come over to treat you. If you need to take medicine, just take medicine. If you need acupuncture, just do acupuncture. Don't hide your illness and tell me that it's okay. .”

Seeing her face slump, Gu Jingxi continued: "I don't want to wait until I grow old to have old bones and have to support my wife who is thirteen years younger than me and has inconvenience in her legs to walk."

Meng Jinyao choked: "..."

Don't bury people like this!

Gu Jingxi smiled and said, "Don't believe it. If you don't take it seriously and don't actively treat it, will your leg still be of use in thirty years?"

Meng Jinyao stopped talking back to him and followed his words: "I didn't say I refused to see the doctor. Why don't you just wait and see him later?"

Not long after, Dr. Wen also came. When he saw the couple, he felt depressed and sympathetic. The two medicine jars were a perfect match. They drank medicine together to treat illnesses. Which couple in the capital was like them?

Dr. Wen checked Meng Jinyao's pulse and asked, "Mrs. Gu, why didn't you mention it when I diagnosed and treated you earlier?"

Meng Jinyao replied: "The pain was not serious at the time and I didn't think about it."

Dr. Wen nodded gently and said: "Mrs. Gu, you have frostbitten the bones of your joints. You need to completely heal them so that they don't hurt at all when the weather is cold. This cannot be done in a short time. You need to persevere. Normally Also pay more attention to keeping warm.”

"Want to drink medicine again?"

Meng Jinyao pursed her lips, feeling a little resistant in her heart, but she also felt that when she got older, letting her husband, who was thirteen years older than her, help her walk, she would look too useless, so after enduring it, she still felt that she could drink it.

Doctor Wen shook his head: "There is no need to drink medicine. Just take a medicinal bath and massage the legs."

Meng Jinyao was stunned: "Mr. Wen, if you have a problem with your legs, can't just soaking your feet be enough?"

Dr. Wen said: "Mrs. Gu's body is cold, so she soaked her whole body in medicinal bath. It can dispel the cold in the body and treat her legs. It kills two birds with one stone. This way, the previous problems can be cured faster."

Hearing this, Meng Jinyao had an idea and asked again: "If I take a medicinal bath, do I still need to drink the previous medicine?"

Doctor Wen dashed her hopes: "You still have to drink the medicine."

Meng Jinyao wilted and thought to herself, now she is really going to be pickled.
