“What do you mean by children’s medication?” Medical Sage couldn’t help but raise a question when he heard her. Sage Apothecary also had doubts in his eyes, waiting for his disciple’s explanation.
”The dosages of children’s medications are adjusted according to the kids’ ages. The taste is more like the sweets that children like.” Gu Ye briefly introduced the medicine, then looked at the child’s father, Jun Qishi, who was overflowing with sorrow. “This time I brought some medicine for reducing fever, moistening the throat and relieving cough. If Eldest Master agrees, let Young Master try it…”
”Disciple, that’s not right!” Sage Apothecary was a little cautious. “This is a new medicine and no one has tried it. How can we rashly give it to the young master?”
”Master, I secretly tried it behind your back, and there was no adverse reaction. As for the efficacy of the medicine, the medicinal materials we use are not much different from ordinary antipyretic pills. The only difference is in the dosage.” Gu Ye gave her master a determined look.
Sage Apothecary frowned and softly scolded her, “Who told you to secretly test medicines behind my back? If something happens, how can I explain it to your grandfather and elder brother? You can’t act so recklessly in the future!”
”Got it, Master. You taught me right!” Gu Ye admitted her mistake with good grace.
”Father, look…” Jun Qishi was confused, and he turned his eyes to his father.
Jun Yonglun hesitated endlessly. The children of the Jun family all focus on schoolwork, and they get married relatively late. The eldest of his family was twenty-six years old and finally had such a precious son. He was also the only precious favorite in this generation. Naturally, he was reluctant to give his only grandson a test drug, but…
”Divine Doctor, Xu’er is having convulsions again…” Wang Shi cried out, and another burst of chaos ensued. In the end, Medical Sage gave the child an injection, and his symptoms were relieved.
”This is a convulsion caused by high fever. If you don’t take medicine in time, even if he is cured in the future, he will still suffer from the sequelae.” Medical Sage sighed, but was unable to do anything else.
Cases of high fever resulting in brain damage and deafness occur from time to time. Any more delay wasn’t an option, Jun Yonglun said decisively to Gu Ye, “Miss Gu, please give Xu’er the medicine you brought. We believe in the pharmaceutical ability of Sage Apothecary!”
”I’ll go fetch it now!” Gu Ye picked up the hem of the skirt, stopped pretending to be a lady, and ran all the way back to her courtyard.
Sage Apothecary was a little worried and followed her. After entering Tingfeng Garden, Sage Apothecary saw his apprentice come out with several paper bags. That paper was obviously oiled paper for wrapping pastry… T-This is too casual.
”Disciple, how sure are you of this medicine? Your master’s lifetime illustrious name is in your hands!” Sage Apothecary reminded her worriedly.
Gu Ye gave him a “Don’t worry” look, but she didn’t dare to stop rushing away. Once she stepped into the young master’s room again, the little guy had already woken up. His little face was crumpled, and he was lying weakly in his mother’s arms.
”Have you brought the medicine? Quick, please give it to Xu’er!” Wang Shi pinned all her hopes on the medicine in Gu Ye’s hand and did not notice her son’s resistant expression after hearing the word “medicine”.
However, Gu Ye caught all the tiny details. She quickly presented the gentlest smile and said to Wang Shi, “Why do you need medicine for Young Master’s illness? Just let him drink some sugar water, eat more and he will be cured. His illness is nothing serious in the first place. He had been forced to drink bitter concoctions, which in turn caused him to vomit and lose appetite.”
”Miss Gu, you…” Wang Shi was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Gu Ye meant when she gave her an eye signal.
Gu Ye gave her a reassuring look, squatted down in front of the bed with a smile and looked at Jun Fangxu. A soothing power seemed to radiate from her smile. “Xu’er, don’t be afraid. Elder Sister understands your feelings best. I drank bitter concoctions for more than 20 days in a row, and felt that everything I ate was bitter, so how could I still eat? However, I am in poor health and have to take medicine. As for you, you just caught a cold, a minor one. Just drink more water and sweat on the bed. You don’t have to drink bitter medicine, right?”
”Yeah, I won’t drink bitter medicine!” Xiao Fangxu nodded weakly. The resistance on his face gradually disappeared, and sympathy poured out from his eyes when he looked at Gu Ye.
Elder sister is so pitiful. She has been suffering from awful medicine for more than 20 days.
”You don’t need to drink medicine, but you need to drink plenty of water.” Gu Ye raised her head, and the maid serving on the side quickly brought a cup of warm water. Gu Ye took a medicine pouch, poured some pink powder inside, and stirred it with a spoon for it to be dissolved.
”No medicine!” Seeing her putting something into the water, Jun Fangxu hurriedly buried his face in his mother’s arms, crying weakly.
In the past few days, in order to trick him into drinking medicine, all kinds of methods have been exhausted. The little guy has suffered bitterness time and again, and has become smarter. Now, no one can coax him.
Gu Ye smiled and said, “There’s no medicine added. I added sugar to the water. Xiao Xu, you have just taken a bitter medicine, and your mouth must be bitter. Drink some sugar water to wash it down.”
”I don’t believe it, you’re lying!” The little guy became like a stubborn little donkey, refusing to listen to anyone.
”Xiao Xu, just lick it with your tongue, and you will know whether I have lied to you.” Gu Ye’s voice at this time characterized Grandma Wolf luring Little Red Riding Hood.
Jun Fangxu hesitated for a moment, then shook his head. He said, “No, you will hold me down and give me medicine…”
”Eldest Mistress, please leave him on the bed and stay back. As for the others, please take a few steps back.” When Gu Ye was the only one left beside the bed, the little guy’s stern face finally relaxed a bit.
