Chapter 544 It’s Difficult to Take Medicine
Gu Yuan knew that Jiang Ning's health was of vital importance to him, so after learning the prescription carefully prepared by the old Chinese doctor, he took action immediately.
He called his assistant, his tone revealing unquestionable determination:
"Xiao Li, here is a prescription. Go to the pharmacy right away and get the medicine according to the prescription. Remember, I want the best medicinal materials. There can be no compromise on quality."
Assistant Xiao Li received Gu Yuan's instructions and immediately realized that this was an urgent and important task.
He quickly wrote down the contents of the prescription and confirmed the name and dosage of each medicinal ingredient.
Xiao Li knew that Gu Yuan cared deeply about Jiang Ning, so he didn't dare to neglect him in the slightest.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Li immediately drove to the most reputable Chinese medicine store in the area.
He knows very well that the quality of medicinal materials is directly related to the treatment effect, so he is extremely cautious when selecting them.
He carefully compared every medicinal ingredient in the pharmacy, paying attention to every detail from appearance, smell to texture.
He selected high-quality medicinal materials with bright colors, strong aromas and solid textures to ensure that each ingredient could exert its maximum medicinal effect.
With the assistance of the pharmacy owner, Xiao Li weighed and packed all the medicinal materials one by one, and then carefully put them into the bag.
He knew that these medicinal herbs carried Gu Yuan's care and expectations for Jiang Ning, so he treated them with extreme solemnity.
After completing the purchase, Xiao Li immediately returned and handed the medicinal materials to Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan took the medicine package, expressed his gratitude for Xiao Li's work, and once again emphasized the requirements for the quality of medicinal materials.
He knew that the next step was to follow the old Chinese doctor's instructions and prepare Chinese medicine for Jiang Ning to help her recover her health as soon as possible.
Gu Yuan personally supervised the decoction process of Chinese medicine, ensuring that every step was carried out strictly in accordance with the instructions of the old Chinese medicine doctor.
He knew that this was not just about decocting medicinal herbs, but also about protecting Jiang Ning's health.
As the aroma of the medicine gradually rose, Gu Yuan's heart was filled with anticipation. He hoped that these herbs could bring about a miracle, allowing Jiang Ning to get rid of his illness as soon as possible and regain his former vitality.
When the bowl of steaming Chinese medicine was finally cooked and placed in front of Jiang Ning, she couldn't help but frown.
There was a strong bitter smell mixed with the medicinal aroma, which made her feel afraid.
She gently stirred the black medicine with a spoon, and every breath made her feel more resistant.
Gu Yuan saw it and felt anxious and distressed.
He knew that although the medicine was bitter, it was the key to curing Jiang Ning.
He walked to Jiang Ning and comforted her softly:
"I know this medicine is bitter, but for your health, we have to overcome this. Think about those good days, we still have a lot of things to do and a lot of places to go. You don't want this pain to get in the way, right?"
Jiang Ning looked up at Gu Yuan. His eyes were full of determination and tenderness, which made her feel a little more at ease.
But she couldn't help muttering:
"But it's really hard..."
Gu Yuan suddenly had an idea and said with a smile:
"I have an idea. You drink the medicine in one gulp, and then I will prepare a sweet candy for you right away. Or if you like, I can prepare a glass of honey water for you, which will neutralize the bitter taste in your mouth."
Jiang Ning looked at Gu Yuan's serious expression and knew that he was truly thinking about her.
She took a deep breath, mustered up her courage, picked up the bowl of Chinese medicine, closed her eyes, and poured the medicine into her mouth in one breath.
The bitterness of the medicine instantly exploded in her mouth and she almost spit it out, but she clenched her teeth and forced herself to swallow it.
Gu Yuan watched nervously from the side, and when he saw that she successfully drank the medicine, he immediately handed her a candy that he had prepared in advance.
Jiang Ning held the candy in her mouth, feeling the sweetness slowly covering up the bitterness, and a relieved smile finally appeared on her face.
“Look, isn’t this brave?”
Gu Yuan said encouragingly, “Next time you take the medicine, we’ll do this.”
Jiang Ning nodded. Although the medicine was bitter, Gu Yuan's care and companionship made her feel warm and strong.
She knew that as long as he was there, no difficulty could not be overcome.
With Gu Yuan's encouragement and support, Jiang Ning gradually got used to the taste of Chinese medicine.
Every time she took the medicine, Gu Yuan would stay by her side, using various tricks to help her alleviate the bitter feeling.
Sometimes it was a sweet chocolate, sometimes it was a cup of warm milk, and there was even one time when Gu Yuan personally made an exquisite dessert just to give Jiang Ning some sweet comfort after taking the medicine.
During days like these, Jiang Ning not only felt the physical changes brought about by the medicine, but also felt Gu Yuan's meticulous care.
She smiled more and more frequently and her mental state improved.
All these changes are inseparable from Gu Yuan’s companionship and support.
In Gu Yuan's eyes, Jiang Ning's strength and courage also made him more convinced that they could overcome everything together.
