After traveling through time, she took her husband to be a food doctor

Ding Xirui stretched out her hand, wanting to comfort him, but was stunned for a moment, and finally retracted it. She stared at the candlelight, and carefully recalled the whole story again. Regarding the matter of curing diseases and saving lives, she felt that she and Lin Mingxuan had worked hard enough. When things came one after another, who could take care of everything?

She admitted that they made mistakes in judgment because they were young, inexperienced, and their intuition was not sharp enough. However, intuition and experience need to be accumulated slowly, and they cannot be achieved overnight. They need to reflect, but they don't have to be so upset that they say they are not worthy of being doctors.

"We have learned our lesson and will be more careful in the future." Ding Xirui murmured, and she stood up and wanted to pour Lin Mingxuan a cup of tea. Suddenly, her eyes glanced at a big red box beside the table.

"What is this? It hasn't existed before."

Lin Mingxuan turned his head and looked over, his face still full of worry.

"Is this the winter clothes my mother sent me? Let's open it and take a look." He squatted down and opened the box with Ding Xirui.

The two were dumbfounded.

Two gourd ladles, a wine pot, two wine glasses, and some peanuts, longans, dates and other things.

Ding Xirui turned her face away, remembering the way Madam Lin and Wen Yuexin looked at her at the dinner table. Madam Lin had passed away for almost two years, and the mourning that Lin Mingxuan asked her to observe should have been completed long ago. Madam Lin wanted to take advantage of the two of them coming back this time to complete the unfinished wedding ceremony.

"Ahem..." Lin Mingxuan's eyes were vague and he closed the box.

Both of them felt a little awkward, not knowing whether to stand or sit. After a while, Ding Xirui spoke up, "Father made sense today. We should all reflect on this. Why don't you go back to the study first..."

"Okay, I'll go to the study." Lin Mingxuan turned around and wanted to leave, but turned back. He bent down, picked up the box and put it against the wall.

"Don't bump into it. Be careful."

"Ah."

After Lin Mingxuan left and the door closed, Ding Xirui felt his stomach bloated and uncomfortable.

When he woke up the next day, Chen Pi said that Lin Mingxuan had already gone to the clinic. Ding Xirui went to pay his respects to Mrs. Lin alone, but he didn't stay long because he had to go to the Niu family for a follow-up visit.

Banxia and Chenpi accompanied her to find Niu Xiaoben. They walked to Tongniu Street. Before they entered Niu's house, they seemed to hear a faint quarrel in the yard. They greeted the doorman and went in. A servant led them in, looking unhappy.

Sure enough, in the corridor of the courtyard, Mrs. Niu was scolding Niu Xiaoben.

"Young Madam!" Banxia pinched her throat and couldn't help but raise her hand to point at Niu Xiaoben, "Banxia, ​​calm down." Ding Xirui quickly grabbed her hand, "I saw it."

Niu Xiaoben did not continue to lose weight as expected, and seemed to have gained a lot of weight back. Ding Xirui thought to himself that this was not good.

"Doctor Ding is here." Mrs. Niu's expression changed immediately. She glared at Niu Xiaoben, turned around and walked towards Ding Xirui and the others with a smile, "Doctor Ding, please come in and sit down."

"Okay, thank you, ma'am." Ding Xirui nodded and walked into the house. Niu Xiaoben followed behind with his head down, full of resentment.

"Doctor Ding, you are finally back. Please help me talk to this child. I really can't take care of him!" Mrs. Niu put away her smile and shook her head repeatedly.

"What happened?" Ding Xirui asked.

"I don't know what's wrong with this child. Since the Mid-Autumn Festival, he has refused to cooperate with the weight loss program. He eats secretly and doesn't exercise properly. I have told him many times, but he just won't listen. Doctor Ding, we have finally persisted for half a year, and the whole family has cooperated. We were about to succeed, but he quit. Isn't he trying to make me angry?" Mrs. Niu said, glaring at Niu Xiaoben again.

Niu Xiaoben didn't look up, but his chest was heaving, and he was obviously angry.

"It's really worrying." Ding Xirui felt tired. After calming down for a while, she stood up and said, "Mrs. Niu, can you allow me to talk to Master Niu alone for a few words?"

"Doctor Ding, just ask whatever you want to say. Why bother..." Mrs. Niu paused, looked at Niu Xiaoben's stubborn expression, and finally nodded.

"Doctor Ding, you guys chat, I have some things to do in the backyard."

"Thank you, Mrs. Niu."

The room returned to silence. Ding Xirui walked over to Niu Xiaoben and sat down. He slowly spoke, "Xiaoben, can you tell me what happened?"

Niu Xiaoben's breathing became rapid. He raised his head and looked at Ding Xirui with red eyes.

"Xiao Ben, what's wrong?"

"My mother...she...is so unreasonable." The chubby boy shook his shoulders and tears fell. He looked pitiful, funny and cute.

Ding Xirui did not stop him. He waited quietly for him to finish crying and handed him a glass of water.

"Now, can you tell me what happened?"

"Well..." Niu Xiaoben wiped his tears and began to tell the story with sobs, "Not long after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I met Xiaoqiao on the street..."

"Song Hanzhang?"

"Yes," Niu Xiaoben sniffed, "I saw she was looking for a job, so I looked for someone to help her. Unexpectedly, my mother found out. My mother scolded me without knowing the truth, and then she even called Xiaoqiao over and said that Xiaoqiao... In short, she scolded her in a very unpleasant way. She also said that we are not allowed to meet each other in the future."

Niu Xiaoben's breath became unstable again when he thought of what happened at that time. "Xiaoqiao did nothing wrong, but she was scolded for nothing. Until now, I haven't even had the chance to apologize." Niu Xiaoben frowned, "I don't understand. When Xiaoqiao was here, my mother was very happy that the girls in the academy could read. Why did she suddenly start to hate her? What did she do wrong?"

Ding Xirui understood. Song Hanzhang had saved Niu Xiaoben before and could talk about books with him. Mrs. Niu was worried that she had ulterior motives, so she found an excuse to dismiss her. Now that she saw that the two of them were in contact again, she was naturally worried.

"Xiao Ben, maybe your mother is too worried about you. She is worried that you won't study hard and go astray, so she is strict with you." Ding Xirui said.

"I understand her heart. I...ah, I don't understand why my mother hates Xiaoqiao so much. She wants me to be well. What does it have to do with Xiaoqiao?" Niu Xiaoben leaned back in his chair, looking very helpless.

"So does your not wanting to lose weight have anything to do with being small?"

"It has nothing to do with her. I just want to piss off my mother a little..." Niu Xiaoben's face turned a little red.

Ding Xirui laughed, "I think your mother is not just slightly angry, she is very angry."

"I don't want this to happen. If you want to blame someone, blame her for being unreasonable and swearing at people." Niu Xiaoben muttered.

Ding Xirui took a deep breath and looked at Niu Xiaoben, "Xiaoben, you want to help Xiaoqiao. I understand that you have good intentions. Xiaoqiao is a very good girl. I want to make friends with her..."

"Yes, yes, yes, I just want to make friends with her." Niu Xiaoben nodded quickly.

"I understand your thoughts, but your mother is different. Her whole heart is on you. She is worried about your safety and sent a bunch of people to follow you, fearing that something might go wrong. You are growing up, and you are small and a girl, so your mother is worried that no matter what you promise, it will be useless... Do you understand what I mean?"

Niu Xiaoben was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly.
