Chapter 25

Mrs. Wang also panicked just now and lost her position for a while, but now that she realized it, she got out of bed quickly, then went to the kitchen to get a washbasin and water, twisted the handkerchief and put it on her husband's forehead.

"Go and bring the charcoal from under your stomach to light it. This room is too cold." Wang ordered the eldest daughter and younger son.

Gu Lian braved the cold wind and went out of the house. She couldn't see any light at this time. Fortunately, there was a little bit of starlight taking advantage of the shadows of the people, but she could tell where the road was and the alley. She stepped out of the alley timidly and quickly. Fortunately, when he came to the town, Gu Lian quickly took note of the location of the medical clinic.

Gu Lizhi's health is really bad, that's why when she arrived here, the first thing she remembered was the doctor here, but thanks to her earlier plan, otherwise she would have to go to the doctor in the dark now Museum too!
"Doctor, doctor, help, please save someone's life." The medical center is not open 24 hours a day, and when we get to the door of the medical center, the door has already been closed tightly, even the two lanterns in front of the door are still a little flickering. Gu Lian patted the door vigorously with both hands, with the momentum of knocking down the door if the people inside didn't come out.

The clerk who was sleeping outside the medical building heard the loud knock on the door, rubbed his eyes and muttered and got up from the bed. When he opened the door, he saw a figure with loose hair.

"Oh my god! Ghost." The guy's face turned pale with fright, and his hands trembled.

Gu Lian twisted her disheveled hair into a ball and tied it up. She showed her face as a living person, and said to the clerk anxiously: "Please take me to the doctor, clerk, my father has a high fever."

Although the guy was terrified, he knew that human life was at stake after recovering, so he didn't complain, he went into the back room and called up the doctor in the hospital, he said to Gu Lian behind him, "You are lucky, you know you came here Find a doctor in the medical clinic, this medical clinic is opened by the doctor himself, so he will also make outpatient visits at night, if you change to a nearby medical clinic, I am afraid you will have to wait until dawn."

After Gu Lian heard these words, she was very happy in her heart, and felt that she was lucky to come here to invite a doctor. In ancient times, there were actually very few doctors who went out for night consultations, unless they were rich or powerful. If you don't want to go to the doctor, you can just arrest the person, but for people like them, if you force them, the doctor won't bother you at all. Only when you politely invite the doctor home, can you feel at ease.

The doctor probably also went out for night consultations often, so he quickly put the things he brought into the medicine box, and with the medicine box in hand, he urged Gu Lian to lead the way.

The two walked in the alley in tandem. In the medical hall, Gu Lian took a lantern from the clerk. Now that she could see the way much clearly, she took the doctor back home without much effort.

"Mother, the doctor is here." Gu Lian yelled towards the yard before entering the house.

Wang Shi, who was so worried that tears came out, heard Gu Lian's call, said Amitabha, and hurried out of the room to welcome the doctor in.

"Why is this room so cold? Tomorrow morning, I will send someone to buy some charcoal. Is this a cold room for people to live in?" The doctor shivered as soon as he entered the room. It was almost as cold as outside. ice cave.

After giving this order, Gu Lian quickly complied, and sat on the edge of the bed while supporting the doctor's hand. The four of them formed a circle and stared at the doctor's movements. They didn't spread out to pour water and serve the stool until he finished reading.

"Doctor, how is my father?" Gu Lian looked at the person on the bed with a pale complexion, and was breaking out in cold sweat.

"Follow me to grab the medicine later. Your father is overworked and exhausted. Has he been running around all these days? How can his body bear such suffering. The body that should be well nourished is now living like this If you don’t take good care of it, your body will get worse and worse in the future.” The doctor put the medicine box on the table, took a brush to sharpen the ink, and wrote the prescription on the paper, sighing slightly.

When the people in the room heard the doctor's words, they all looked at Gu Lizhi on the bed with worry. In fact, they didn't know that his body couldn't stand running around.

"If Dad can take good care of him, how can our family want to let him run around? My family just came here from another place. There was a disaster at home, and it was only two days before we settled down in Xinyue Town. Dad I'm sick." With a forced smile on Gu Lian's face, she took the prescription from the doctor.

The doctor also saw that he just came to the town, and he was stunned when he saw it, so he stopped talking, picked up the medicine box and beckoned Gu Lian to go with him, took the medicine and then came back to decoct it, and have a look at it in the morning Can the high fever subside?

When she came back from the medical center, Gu Lian carried several packs of medicine in her hand. She paid the doctor's money for the medicine. She only has three taels of silver left on her body now. It is estimated that the Chinese medicine cannot be broken, and the money is probably all They all have to be put into recuperation.

"You stay here and watch over your father. I'll fry the medicine in the kitchen. Remember to change the towel for him." Mrs. Wang took the medicine and ran into the kitchen non-stop, ignoring the cold wind.

Gu Lizhi became a little conscious after being tossed about. He opened his eyes and looked at the beams on the roof. His eyeballs kept moving, as if he couldn't find a focus.

"Alian, are we going home?"

"Father, we're at home!" Gu Lian replied, but secretly thought that something was going to happen, her father was so burned that he couldn't even recognize where he was.

Gu Zhu and Gu Shu clasped their hands together tightly, and they didn't dare to make a sound. Even if they wanted to cry, they could only hold it back, for fear of shocking the person on the bed.

"Our house seems a little strange. Did you change the roof? Dad seems to be a little lost." Gu Lizhi only felt that his eyes were full of blurry things. He wanted to open his eyes to see clearly, but he always felt that his eyes were not listening to him.

Gu Lian stretched out her hand and touched his forehead magnetically, it was still very hot, twisted the handkerchief and put it on his forehead again, her eyes kept looking into the kitchen.

After a while, Mrs. Wang entered the room with the boiled medicinal soup. When everyone saw the bitter medicinal soup floating in the bowl, it was as if they were looking at a fairy medicine again, so they quickly gave up their place to help Mrs. Wang sat down, and several people worked together to pour the bowl down for him.

"I drank this medicine, but when will it work?" Wang put the bowl on the table, and kept reaching out to touch her husband's forehead.

This night, no one could sleep anymore. Gu Lian took all the quilts from their room and covered her father's body. Had to last until dawn.

"I'm going to buy some spirits and come back. I heard people say that rubbing your body with spirits will reduce the high fever quickly. I'll go and return quickly." Gu Lian plunged into the cold wind again, and ran to the street to find a liquor store.
