Chapter 9 Never Get Close to A Woman

Du Yuheng cried, "Doctor! Please save my mother. I won't take my monthly salary. I will work more to repay your kindness!"

"What? Two slings of money a month. You said you don't want it? Since when is it your turn to speak in the Fang family!" Madam Fang was the first to explode.

"That's right! The Fang family raised you up. What right do you have to work for others for free?" Mrs. Wang added.

"Why don't we find another doctor? How can we listen to him alone?" Fang Dali also came over.

Du Yuheng lowered her head and couldn't help sneering. "Look, what a shameless family they are for money!"

"Mom, take a good look. Is this the family you want?"

Dr. Qian was so angry that his face turned red and he was about to speak...

"Shut up, all of you! Tong Niang's illness is more important. Money can be earned at any time. Dr. Qian..."

Mr. Fang came out of the main room. "The woman is ignorant. Please forgive her, Dr. Qian. It's just that our family is really short of money. Can I pay for the medicine later?"

The father and son drank outside every day. Didn't their daughter have the money for dozens of copper coins a month?

However, what Mr. Fang said finally sounded better than others. Dr. Qian curled his lips and said, "I've thought about the cost of the medicine. Du Yuheng is filial and capable, so I can't bear to refuse. Well, I accept that you owe the money for the medicine first. When her mother can get up, she can come to my store to cook a meal and do something to pay off the debt!"

With tears in his eyes, Du Yuheng thanked Chu Xun profusely.

Du Yuheng had already paid for the herbs, and Dr. Qian deliberately said that because he knew that Fang Tong couldn't recover well at home.

He went to the Renyi Clinic with Du Yuheng. Whether she worked or not, at least the food she ate was ten thousand times better than what she ate at home. Only in this way could she get better as soon as possible.

Dr. Qian was so benevolent! He was really the benefactor of the mother and daughter!

When the Fang family heard that Fang Tong didn't have to deduct the monthly salary of Du Yuheng and wanted her to pay the debt, they had no choice but to agree. Madam Fang was still calculating in her heart that when Fang Tong recovered, she would be able to earn more money in a month.

Du Yuheng told Fang Tong she would bring the medicine back in the afternoon and then followed Dr. Qian back to the Renyi Clinic. She cleaned, dried, and carried the medicine. She was more dedicated than yesterday.

When the patient finished seeing the doctor in the afternoon, Mrs. Qian handed her a food box and a few medicinal materials that could replenish strength. Du Yuheng opened it and found that it was a prepared meal.

Little girl, I've calculated that the herbs you collected today are enough for your mother to take for a few months. Take these herbs back to nourish her body. Get better soon and come to talk to me as a companion..

Du Yuheng was moved again. She thanked Mrs. Qian and returned home.

Because Du Yuheng and Fang Tong were the cash cow of the Fang family now and in the future, the Fang family treated them much better. The porridge placed in front of Fang Tong was no longer a bowl of rice soup.

However, Fang Tong did not take a single bite. She was only waiting for Du Yuheng to return.

Du Yuheng boiled the medicine, poured out the porridge, and fed Fang Tong the food prepared by Mrs. Qian bit by bit.

After hearing what Dr. Qian and Mrs. Qian said and seeing the tonics Du Yuheng brought back, Fang Tong's face regained some color.

"Okay, I will take good care of myself and go to the Renyi Clinic to help. For no other reason, I just want to repay Dr. Qian's kindness."

The mother and daughter chatted and laughed. Fang Tong felt much better after taking the medicine.

Outside, the Fang family quarreled non-stop since it was dark. First, Madam Fang blamed Mrs. Wang that she cooked too slow and tasteless. Mrs. Wang did not dare to talk back and fell into the kitchen. Then, the father and son of the Fang family came back and kept saying that they were going to purchase goods and do business. Mrs. Wang was even angrier when she heard that. She kept complaining about her husband. He was not capable, but he was dreaming?

How could Madam Fang bear to see her only precious son being scolded? She put on the airs of a mother-in-law and said, "When will you give our family a grandson, daughter-in-law?"

Mrs. Wang was hit hard. She cried and screamed for half the night.

Du Yuheng and Fang Tong hid in their rooms, pretending that they were not there at all.

Du Yuheng helped Fang Tong to sleep early and sorted out the records of the past two days under the dim oil lamp.

She read it, recited it, and also wrote from memory what the strange old man had said.

It was not until these things were remembered that Du Yuheng threw the notes into the stove and burned them.

She would not take the risk of being discovered by the Fang family to keep these precious things.

She could only keep it in her mind, and in order to not forget it, she had to review it in her mind at all times.

Strangely, Du Yuheng thought it was very simple to learn these things that many people thought were complicated. Even the subtle differences that Xiao Hai is easy to confuse, Du Yuheng can recognize at a glance.

"Maybe I'm really talented!" Du Yuheng fell asleep with satisfaction for the first time.

The next day, Du Yuheng boiled the medicine and prepared the food for both meals for Fang Tong. Then she gently closed the door and went out.

After last night's sorting, she was more familiar with these herbs today. Du Yuheng also understood more why the herbs were put together on the prescriptions read by the old man.

Thinking of this, when Dr. Qian felt the pulse, Du Yuheng couldn't help glancing over there, and she even wanted to put his ears under the mouth of Dr. Qian to hear what he was saying.

After writing the prescription, he was about to come to Du Yuheng to get the medicine, but when he saw her, he didn't dare to come over and wanted to run away with hesitation.

It was Hou Si.

"Sir, come and get the medicine!" Du Yuheng said with a smile, but she stared coldly at Hou Si.

Hou Si had no choice but to slowly move over.

Du Yuheng took the prescription and found that they were all used to treat bruises. It seemed that the injuries he suffered that day had not healed yet.

"Sir, your medicine is ready. Remember to take one dose per day, rest well, and avoid any intimate encounters."

Hou Si trembled slightly and nodded repeatedly before turning and walking away, too hesitant to utter another word.
