Chapter 131 Testing the medicine?
The impatient old man saw Fang Yuzhen was hesitating and didn't say anything, so he got anxious and reached out to take the note.
"What exactly does it say? Let me see."
The note read: "Only three cough medicines left. Don't waste them! Please put the box behind the house after use."
Everyone understood. No wonder Fang Yuzhen was so excited. This was cough medicine for Lao Yu.
Several people looked at the bottles below again. There were words written on the three bottles, marked with the first day, the second day, and the third day respectively.
"Why does this look transparent? Is it medicine?" someone asked after a long silence.
"It should be medicine." Someone replied.
"Old Lu, can this be given to Old Yu?" One of them looked at the old man who had just left. His name was Lu Shichang. Lu Shichang was obviously the backbone of their group.
"Will there be any other problems?"
Lu Shichang also frowned and thought. If it were him, he might just go and try it. It has come to this point and there is nothing to be afraid of.
But this medicine was not for him, and he couldn't make the decision directly. He looked at Old Yu who was lying on the bed.
Cough, cough, cough. Old Yu, who heard everything they said clearly, coughed a few more times.
"Give it to me! Cough cough cough, let me eat it. Cough cough cough!" He coughed a few more times while saying this.
His wife Fang Yuzhen, with tears in her eyes, said to him: "Old Yu, wait a minute, see if you can find someone to ask tomorrow."
"Hehe, give it to me!" Old Yu stretched out his hand to Fang Yuzhen.
Fang Yuzhen held the box and shook her head, "I'll try to find someone to test it tomorrow."
"Hehe, give it to me! Don't be afraid!" Lao Yu found it difficult to speak. He knew that his wife was worried about him and didn't dare let him use things of unknown origin.
But for people like them, who would come to harm him again after it has come to this? Moreover, with his body, he probably wouldn't last long without medicine, so he might as well take a gamble.
Although Lin Qingyan couldn't see what was going on inside from the outside, she could judge their current situation from what they said.
She sighed. What was there to be afraid of when seeing a group of old men and women? She felt a little worried for them.
But she was so anxious that she couldn't go in and let them drink directly.
"Give it to me, cough cough cough cough!" Old Yu spoke louder this time.
Finally, Fang Yuzhen gritted his teeth, took out a bottle, unscrewed it, and wanted to pour it into his mouth.
Lu Shichang, who had been standing next to her without saying a word, was so scared that he quickly reached out to stop her, snatched the bottle in his hand, and carefully covered the bottle.
He asked her, "What are you doing?"
"I'll try the medicine. If it's not poisonous, I'll give it to Old Yu."
Lu Shichang looked at her helplessly and shook his head:
"There are only three bottles here. It says on the bottles not to waste. You tried the medicine. If it really works, there will only be two bottles left. What if it's not enough for Lao Yu? Besides, it says there are only three bottles. Don't waste them."
Fang Yuzhen was a little dumbfounded. She was so nervous that she forgot to think.
"Cough cough cough, give it to me, I believe it!" Old Yu said something after another round of coughing.
Fang Yuzhen gritted her teeth and said to her partner:
"Old Yu, let's make a bet. If something bad happens, I'll be with you, and you won't be alone on the road to the underworld."
After saying that, he wanted to take the bottle back, but was rejected by Lu Shichang. Lu Shichang took the bottle and walked towards the bed where Lao Yu was lying.
"Let me do it. I'm afraid you'll get too nervous and drop the bottle again."
Fang Yuzhen also hurried over and helped Lao Yu up with great effort. Lao Yu coughed for a while before reaching out to take the bottle.
Lu Shichang looked at the glass bottle in his hand and hesitated, "Let me take it!"
After saying that, he put the bottle mouth to Lao Yu's mouth and fed him until he finished the bottle, which was actually only 100 ml.
When Lao Yu drank it, he felt that they were being fooled. This was clearly water, just a little sweeter than water.
But when the water slowly entered his body from his mouth, he first felt his throat become comfortable, and the itchy feeling of wanting to cough seemed to be suppressed by the water.
After finishing the bottle, the fatigue he had been feeling for a while was relieved a little.
He was still savoring the taste in his mouth when he heard someone ask, "How is it? How is it? Is it not poisonous?"
"Yes, Lao Yu, how do you feel?"
"Old Yu, don't scare me." Fang Yuzhen was so scared by his dazed look that she started crying.
Old Yu came back to his senses, reached out and patted her arm, and said to her: "I'm fine, don't worry."
"Ah? You didn't cough?"
"There's really no cough."
"Yeah, he finished talking without coughing?"
"What kind of medicine is this that is so magical!"
"You are old, don't you know not to ask questions that you shouldn't ask? Not to mention that we don't know who sent it, even if we knew, we shouldn't ask. Asking is hurting others."
"I know, just asking."
"Don't you know that curiosity kills the cat? Let's go to bed! We have to clean the cowshed tomorrow."
In winter, the villagers do not have to go to work at the construction site, but those who need to renovate the cowshed have to clean the cowshed every day, and someone comes every day to check whether it is clean.
Take these people for example, they have never lived with cows before. They can’t stand it if the cow dung is not cleaned up one day!
After everyone else had left, Lu Shichang looked at Lao Yu. The two of them had known each other since they were young and were old friends. They both ended up in this situation and could be considered brothers in distress.
"Old Yu, how do you feel?"
"I feel much better now. Although I still feel like coughing, I can control it, unlike before when I couldn't control it at all."
Lu Shichang heaved a sigh of relief at this time and said to the couple:
"I've never heard of such a magical medicine before. Keep the other two bottles. Write down the three-day dosage. Then drink one bottle tomorrow and another bottle the day after tomorrow to see if you can get better."
When Lao Yu heard this, he smiled:
"It's not that easy to get better. Just stop coughing like before and don't worry about affecting your rest."
"We're old acquaintances, why are you talking about this! Put your things away and go to bed early!"
Lin Qingyan left after they finished a bottle.
However, she didn't know that after she left, someone in the dark looked at where she was standing, and then followed her back to the educated youth point.
Although her hearing is much better than others, she usually doesn't like to listen to other people talking and will automatically block out some sounds.
In addition, she had no anti-reconnaissance capabilities, so she naturally didn't know that someone had been following her since she left the educated youth center.
The person who followed was none other than Gu Yizhou.
These days, Lin Qingyan was going in and out of the educated youth point normally. He saw it all and saw how relaxed she was. She took walks with Ye Yi every day, and he just watched her without going up to disturb her.
Just as he was getting ready to rest tonight, he heard the sound of someone walking in the yard. He used the light from the window to see that it was her who went out.
He was worried about her safety at night, and was afraid that she would be worried if he approached her, so he had to secretly follow behind her to protect her.
What he didn't expect was that Lin Qingyan went to the cowshed. He was far away and didn't know what happened in the cowshed.
I only saw Lin Qingyan go in, come out, and then stand outside for a long time.
Lin Qingyan had no idea that this would happen tonight. She returned to the educated youth point and went to rest directly.
