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

It was completely dark, and the sound of dogs barking could be heard in the alleys in the distance. Not many lights were on in the houses nearby. This epidemic had lasted for nearly twenty days, and the elderly living alone were particularly pitiful. It was ok if they had neighbors who cared about them, but at this time, even healthy people could not take care of themselves. If the elderly fell ill at home, they would probably die silently.

Ding Xirui sat in the carriage, sighed, and said:

"We should have remembered this sooner."

"Don't feel too guilty. We are also doing our best to treat others in the clinic." Lin Mingxuan held Ding Xirui's hand. Although he felt guilty in his heart, the person in front of him needed his comfort at this moment.

Ding Xirui felt tired. She leaned her head on Lin Mingxuan's shoulder and continued:

"My mother fell ill a few days ago, and I was so anxious. But actually, although families like the Ding family are not rich, they have savings and supplies on weekdays, so they can basically cope with unexpected events. Moreover, they have a daughter like me, so fortunately I am not an unfilial daughter. But the elderly who live here and rely on needle and thread, firewood and rice, have almost no ability to deal with risks. They are not old enough to go to the poorhouse, but their lives are already stretched. When disaster strikes, they can only leave it to fate."

"Let's visit them often in the future." Lin Mingxuan patted her shoulder.

"Of course it is like this. When the illness is over, I would like to ask Boss Zheng to come forward and give a special sum of money as a living subsidy for the elderly living alone." Ding Xirui raised his head and became energetic.

"Will Boss Zheng agree?" Lin Mingxuan was a little confused. Businessmen would not do too much if it was not profitable.

"As long as Zheng Shihui achieves her weight loss goal, he will. We can promise him to publicize it more. It is the Zheng family doing good deeds and help them gain a good reputation. Although they will not get any actual benefits in the short term, it will be beneficial to them in the long run. With Boss Zheng's intelligence and many years of business experience, he will not fail to think of it."

"Well, that's good." Lin Mingxuan nodded.

“Moreover, by then, the news that Jishidiang helped Zheng Shihui lose weight successfully will also spread. If there are other people in the city who want to lose weight, we can collect more and ask them to donate silver as medical fees. Most people who have such needs are wealthy.” Ding Xirui’s eyes began to light up.

"That's a good idea." Lin Mingxuan thought for a moment and then continued:

"If these elderly people recover, we can give them a small amount of money and let them start a small business together."

"Yes. We lend them the capital, and if they lose money, they don't have to pay it back. When they make money, they only need to pay us back the capital. Fundamentally speaking, we want them to get rich on their own, have ways to make money, and not live off their savings. In this way, they will have the conditions to see a doctor, take medicine, eat properly, and stay healthy, and we will no longer be in the situation of 'a good cook cannot cook without rice'." Ding Xirui also thought of this and was very excited.

"That's right. However, this is usually done by business houses or banks. Our clinic is not qualified to do this."

"Then find a trading company to do it. It would be best if we can convince them to do it together. If they don't agree, the worst that can happen is that we pay a fee as the commission." Ding Xirui held Lin Mingxuan's hand tightly, very excited.

"This way, it is reasonable and legal."

"Correct."

The two of them discussed along the way, and the depression they had just felt was swept away.

After returning home, they changed clothes, washed their hands and faces, and had just sat down to eat a few bites of food when they heard a commotion in the yard.

"Second Young Master, the eldest young master is running hot and sick. Madam, please go and see him as soon as possible." Qingyun ran in, panting.

"Big brother?"

Lin Mingxuan put down his bowl and chopsticks, stood up and ran out. Ding Xirui ran to the bedroom, got a new towel, and hurried to follow.

Mr. Lin was out seeing patients and had not returned yet. Mrs. Lin and Wen Yuexin were very anxious. Although it is said that a doctor should not treat himself, it was not easy to invite a doctor from outside at this critical moment, so they had to call Lin Mingxuan.

"Mingxuan, come and see your elder brother." Wen Yuexin said in a crying voice.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'll take a look."

Lin Mingxuan was about to go over when Ding Xirui caught up with him and grabbed him.

"Put on your mouth mask quickly. You can't get into trouble again."

Lin Mingxuan took the mask, put it on, and walked quickly to Lin Mingyuan's bed.

Under the light, Lin Mingyuan's face was unclear. Lin Mingxuan stepped forward to take his pulse and felt a heat when he touched his arm.

After a moment, he put down his hand, turned to Wen Yuexin, and asked:

"Sister-in-law, when did my brother start to have a fever?"

"When he went out today, he said he had a slight headache, but he didn't feel feverish at the time. I asked him to rest, but he said it was okay, there were too many things to do in the clinic, and he couldn't spare the time. When he came back in the evening, I felt that something was wrong with him, and he had a fever. He drank a bowl of ginger soup and rested. Now, he seems to be even worse."

"Sister-in-law, my brother's symptoms have just started, and we need to see how they develop. Please have someone prepare some cold water to help him wipe his face and hands. Then, let him drink more water."

"Qingyun, go quickly." Wen Yuexin turned her head and gave an order. She went to the table, poured a glass of water, and fed it to Lin Mingyuan.

Lin Mingyuan drank the water and said softly:

"Mingxuan, I'm fine, I'm just tired."

"Brother, you are overworked and that's why you can't hold on. You should have listened to sister-in-law and rested at home in the morning."

"Hey, I'm worried that you and dad won't be able to handle the clinic."

"You can't force yourself." Mrs. Lin said angrily.

Qingyun brought a basin, Ding Xirui put a towel in it, wrung out the water, and handed it to Wen Yuexin. Wen Yuexin flattened the towel and placed it on Lin Mingyuan's forehead.

"Sister-in-law, has brother had dinner tonight?" Ding Xirui asked.

"No."

"Then have some vegetable porridge."

"Yes, let brother eat something." Lin Mingxuan said.

"Okay, I'll let Ruyi prepare it." Before Wen Yuexin could speak, Mrs. Lin spoke.

"Thank you, mother." Wen Yuexin bowed her head to express her gratitude, then turned to Lin Mingxuan and asked:

"Mingxuan, does your brother want to take medicine?"

"Prepare the Ten Gods Soup and keep it warm for the second half of the night. In the first half of the night, I'll have to trouble Sister-in-law and Qingyun to use cold water to wipe Brother down and cool him down."

"it is good."

"Mingxuan, you guys should go back and rest soon. We will take care of your elder brother." Mrs. Lin said.

"Yes. Sister-in-law, mother, you two must be careful, wear a mask, and get more rest. I will come to see brother again in the second half of the night." After Lin Mingxuan finished speaking, he stood up and saluted, then took Ding Xirui back to his yard.
