Ye Ling guessed that the person who spoke should be Aunt Mei.
Aunt Mei’s eldest daughter-in-law, Mei Lian, replied loudly, “It’s the pharmacy staff, who came specifically to remind us about the precautions for using the medicine.”
Not long after Mei Lian finished speaking, a middle-aged woman in her fifties walked out of the house.
The middle-aged woman had a pair of triangular eyes, and the corners of her mouth drooped, giving her a somewhat stern appearance, which made her look older than her actual age.
Aunt Mei looked at Ye Ling from top to bottom, sizing her up. Then, she asked,
“What’s the matter with the herbs?”
“You might not be able to control the dosage of the ginseng slices,” Ye Ling explained again. “How about this? I’ll help you divide the dosage of the ginseng slices to prevent side effects if the patient overdoses.”
Ye Ling’s tone was completely business-like, with a hint of seriousness in her politeness, and her expression appeared very natural.
Aunt Mei hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded. “Alright, come in. Mei Lian, go get a glass of water.”
Ye Ling and Aunt Mei walked into the living room together.
Aunt Mei’s family was considered to be below average in Willow Village. They weren’t as well-off as the Wan family, but they weren’t so poor that they didn’t even have a few decent pieces of furniture.
Not long after Ye Ling sat down, Mei Lian brought a glass of water to her. Then, Ma Biao came out of the bedroom.
Ma Biao, who had a full beard, was stunned when he saw Ye Ling.
When Ma Biao went to the pharmacy to buy medicine, he was talking to a manager in white. At that time, he only saw a person sitting on the other side but didn’t see the person’s face.
At this moment, when Ma Biao saw Ye Ling in the administrator’s uniform, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes. He didn’t come back to his senses for a long time.
For farmers who had dealt with crops all their lives, women from the city were like the moon in the sky. They were more exquisite than the women in the countryside, and their skin was more delicate and smooth. They always had a
high and mighty temperament, making people unable to help but want to please them.
After Ma Biao understood the purpose of Ye Ling’s visit to his house, he immediately took out the paper bag containing the ginseng slices.
Ye Ling took the paper bag from Ma Biao’s hands. After opening it, she hesitated for a moment.
“How old is the patient?” Ye Ling asked.
Aunt Mei and Ma Biao exchanged a look. Then Aunt Mei replied, “She is eighteen. ”
Ye Ling nodded and asked, “How’s the patient?”
Aunt Mei furrowed her brows, and there was an unmistakable expression of fatigue and frustration between her eyebrows. “Not too good.”
Ye Ling paused for a moment, withdrew her hand, and spoke seriously, “If the patient’s body is rather weak, then I need to look at the patient’s physical condition to determine the amount of herbs to use. Can you take me to see the patient?”
Ma Biao’s eyes showed a trace of panic, and Aunt Mei appeared reluctant. She frowned, seemingly prepared to reject Ye Ling.
Ye Ling could sense that Ma Biao was looking at her with a friendlier gaze, tinged with a hint of warmth.
Ma Biao. “Comrade Ma Biao, I simply wish to assess the patient’s basic condition. Is that not allowed?”
Ye Ling’s tone resembled a teacher’s inquiry of a student in school, carrying a hint of authority. However, her smile remained gentle and radiant. Ma Biao’s mind went blank momentarily, and his breath quickened. Looking into Ye Ling’s eyes, he almost felt dizzy.
“Of course, please. Sister-in-law, take this Comrade to have a look… Ah Hui.” At the mention of Ah Hui, Ma Biao abruptly regained his composure, realizing that he was a married man, and there was an insurmountable gap between him and the young and beautiful Ye Ling. For a moment, Ma Biao felt remorse and embarrassment.
With Ma Biao’s consent, Ye Ling promptly stood up and turned to Mei Lian, “Alright, then I’ll trouble Sister Mei Lian.”
The conversation between Ye Ling and Ma Biao concluded in the blink of an eye. Before Aunt Mei could react, her son had already agreed to the woman’s request.
Mei Lian seemed helpless and cast an inquiring look at her mother-in-law.
Aunt Mei gritted her teeth and gave her son a fierce shove. Then, she waved her hand impatiently,” Go ahead, go ahead. A person on the brink of death has nothing you can’t see. Just as long as you don’t find it repulsive.” After Ye Ling left with Mei Lian, Aunt Mei gave her son a harsh push.
“Why do you have to meddle? Who knows if this woman will start spreading rumors after seeing the deceased? Our family’s reputation will be ruined.. How are you ever going to find a wife?”
