Gu Ye smiled and said to the little guy who still retained his vigilance, “Look, everyone is far away now. I’ll hold the bowl in one hand and the spoon in the other, so I don’t have a third hand to restrain you. Are you relieved now? “

Jun Fangxu glanced around the crowd, and when he saw Medical Sage and Sage Apothecary, he curled his mouth and said, “No doctors, let them go!”

”Okay, okay, okay! Our Xiao Xu is not sick. We shouldn’t be inviting doctors, right? Eldest Master, please see the guests off.” Medical Sage and Sage Apothecary shook their heads in cooperation and followed the Jun Qishi out of the room after seeing Gu Ye’s wink.

As soon as the two went out, Jun Fangxu’s expression became much more relaxed. Gu Ye sat beside him and brought the spoon with the medicine to his mouth.

The little guy looked at her vigilantly, but didn’t capture any hints from her expression. Like a puppy who had just been taken home, he tried to approach her, carefully stuck out his tongue, and licked a mouthful in the spoon.

Huh?

He didn’t taste anything, so he took another lick. Then his little eyes lit up. It was really sweet. The sister didn’t lie to him.

Xiao Fangxu drank half a bowl of medicine one mouthful at a time, and licked his mouth unsatisfied. He said in a low voice, “What kind of candy did you put in, Sister? It tastes a bit like orange. I want to drink more.”

”Xiao Xu, if you drink this bravely, I will reward you with another drink tomorrow morning.” Gu Ye shook the small porcelain bottle in her hand.

Jun Fangxu’s face was extremely tangled, and he said in a quavering voice, “If it’s bitter medicine I’ll spit it out unless it’s like the one just now.”

”This is a syrup to moisten the throat and relieve cough. After drinking this syrup, your throat will no longer be uncomfortable, and your voice won’t be hoarse.”

Gu Ye poured out some syrup with the same color as the medicine solution earlier. “Don’t mind the color, it’s not bitter. Treat others the way you would like to be treated. I don’t like to drink bitter medicine, so I won’t give you any either. Don’t you believe me, Xiao Xu?”

”Isn’t it bitter?” Jun Fangxu saw the dark concoction, looking resistant. However, this Sister was not like those two grandpas, who forced him to drink bitter medicine as soon as they came, nor was she like his parents, who helped the bad guys pour sour and sweet syrup. This elder sister was nice. She wouldn’t lie to him, right?

”Sister, let me have a taste.” Gu Ye asked someone to bring another clean spoon, poured a spoonful of syrup, put it in his mouth, and let him taste it. This syrup was not as good as the ones she could make and it was also less effective, but she could only make do temporarily.

At the beginning of the apocalypse in her previous life, Ice Cube led a team to collect supplies. She was a doctor, so she secretly collected a lot of medicines. When her pharmaceutical talent was not on display, she used some of the medicine and kept some in her space, which allowed them to never expire no matter what.

Later, she successfully produced various kinds of potions with remarkable effects, and those outputs were piled up in the corner of her space and left unused.

The little guy in front of her couldn’t stomach bitter decoctions, reminding her of the children’s medicines. What she gave him just now were granules for high fever and fast fever alleviation. It was sweet and slightly sour, which was suitable for children’s palates.

Xiao Fangxu watched the sister who was most afraid of taking bitter medicine taste the medicine without wincing. Besides, the sister said that this was syrup. With the word “sugar”, it should be sweet… right?

A four-year-old child was naïve but with a touch of cute little cleverness.

He opened his mouth a little bit, and the spoon went in a little bit. He sipped a bit of the medicine with his lips, and then licked with his tongue. Hmm, Elder Sister didn’t lie to me, it’s sweet. The little guy drank the syrup in one gulp. Gu Ye fed him two mouthfuls of warm water to rinse the syrup in his mouth.

Perhaps because he drank the medications willingly, the little guy didn’t feel any discomfort after drinking them. Instead, he rubbed his eyes, yawned, and wanted to sleep. After a whole day of torment, he should be sleepy. Gu Ye touched his forehead. It was very hot, and so she put a cooling patch on his forehead.

The little guy found it quite novel, and felt it with his little hands, but he didn’t mean to tear it off. While poking here and there, Xiao Fangxu closed his eyes. Soon, his slightly ragged breathing sounded.

Seeing that her son finally fell asleep peacefully, Wang Shi wept with joy, wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, and incessantly whispered her thanks to Gu Ye.

”Let him take this medicine every four hours, just mix it with warm water. Let him drink a spoonful of syrup each time, drink plenty of boiled water, and don’t force him if he doesn’t want to drink it, so as to prevent him from resistive vomiting. The medicine patch on his head helps in reducing fever, so please take it off in the morning.” Gu Ye was somewhat tired after shopping for a day, so she went back to her room to rest after coming out of Pinshi Building.

Early the next morning, when she went to pay her respects to the Old Madam, Wang Shi was there too. She took Gu Ye’s hand and couldn’t stop expressing her gratitude, “Thanks you, Miss Gu. Xu’er’s fever subsided in the middle of the night. He woke up in the middle of the night, drank a few sips of water, and asked, ‘Where is Elder Sister?’ When he woke up in the morning, he looked more energetic and was still hungry. He ate half a bowl of porridge. He behaved well while taking the medicine, and even asked if he could have another bowl with some anticipation. If you hadn’t brought the medicine, our Xu’er would have…”
