Seeing that she only ate braised pork and wood ear mushrooms, and barely touched the fish, Xiao Han put down his chopsticks and asked in confusion, "Don't you like fish?"

"I like it!" She hesitated for a moment before continuing, "We're always in a rush when we eat, and I'm afraid I might choke on a fish bone if I eat too fast."

Xiao Han said with a slight apology, "It was my oversight."

I didn't think that much when I instructed the kitchen to prepare the meal in the afternoon.

"It's nothing serious, as long as you're full," Long Chuqing said, looking at him. "You can eat more."

Xiao Han went to the side and found a pair of chopsticks, then picked up the fish bones and placed the fish meat, which had been deboned, on her plate. "There are no bones now."

Long Chuqing looked at the fish in the bowl with a slight surprise, then smiled and said, "Thank you... no need to help me, you can eat it yourself, the food will get cold soon."

"Hmm... eat more." He then put the selected fish pieces into her bowl.

Because there were many patients waiting outside, I ate much faster than usual.

After eating, Long Chuqing went out to continue seeing patients, while Xiao Han found a stool and sat next to her to watch. She felt quite helpless.

An elderly woman who was seeing a doctor looked Xiao Han up and down carefully, and finally couldn't help but ask with a smile, "Young man, you're really handsome! Are you married yet?"

Faced with the old woman's sudden response, Xiao Han was momentarily embarrassed after realizing that she was talking to him.

He looked at the old woman and replied politely, "No."

The old woman was overjoyed to hear this, and a warm smile spread across her face.

She began to introduce her connections to Xiao Han, saying that she knew many daughters of noble families and wanted to introduce them to him. It was obvious that the old lady's profession was matchmaker.

She looked sickly and listless when she sat down, but now, when she talks about her job, she's like a completely different person.

She talked on and on, her words flowing and eloquent. At this moment, her back pain and dizziness were gone, and she felt energetic all over. She didn't look like a patient at all.

"How about it...?" After introducing her connections, the old lady began to ask Xiao Han for his opinion.

"These girls I just told you about are all incredibly beautiful! And their figures are superb, with slender waists. I guarantee you'll be satisfied after you see them," the old woman said confidently.

Xiao Han listened in stunned silence, looking at the enthusiastic old lady in front of him, not knowing how to respond. This was the first time he had ever seen such a scene.

“Um…” Xiao Han thought for a moment before speaking in a friendly tone, “Everything is fine, but you don’t need to trouble yourself. Thank you.”

After hearing this, the old woman thought to herself, "This young man is so handsome, and the clothes he is wearing are also very fine."

Furthermore, his aura, emanating from within, was enough for her discerning eye to tell that the young man before her was either rich or noble. If she could arrange a marriage between him and his wife, the matchmaker's red envelope would certainly be substantial.

She continued with a smile, "Young man, don't be shy! What I'm telling you is all true, there's no false advertising. Why don't you reconsider?"

"Sorry... no need." Xiao Han refused again.

The old woman was still persistent despite his repeated rejections and continued to use her silver tongue to try and persuade Xiao Han.

The old lady's voice was quite loud, and the patients waiting in line around her also looked over. Since they were bored while waiting, they pricked up their ears to listen to what the old lady was saying.

Faced with the old lady's persistent and enthusiastic urging, he felt as if her words were an endless cacophony ringing in his ears, and eventually he could only choose to remain silent.

Xiao Han barely heard what the old woman said afterward; he only felt powerless exhaustion and helplessness.

Xiao Han turned his gaze to Long Chuqing beside him and found that she was actually suppressing a laugh.

A hint of resentment appeared on his face. He reached out and tugged at her sleeve, signaling for her to help.

After receiving the hint, Long Chuqing stopped smiling and cleared his throat: "Ahem... Auntie, here is your prescription. Please take it... Drink plenty of warm water when you get home, and be careful not to eat spicy food recently. Go over there to get the medicine."

After hearing this, the old lady took the prescription, glanced at Xiao Han again, as if they hadn't talked enough yet. But she didn't want to delay the patients who were seeing the doctor later.

She took the prescription and went to get the medicine, but turned back halfway there, wanting to continue chatting with Xiao Han. She felt she had almost convinced him.

The old woman turned around and saw that he was staring at the female doctor from before. After looking closely at Long Chuqing, he suddenly had an expression of knowing everything, and turned around to continue getting the medicine.

Among those who came to see the doctor were some young girls. They would blush and their hearts would race when they saw Xiao Han, which seriously affected Long Chuqing's ability to take his pulse.

She turned to Xiao Han and said, "Go somewhere else; you're disturbing my patients."

Xiao Han neither spoke nor left. He calmly turned his face away, and when the next person came, he turned his face back to continue watching her work.

One of the girls, around fifteen or sixteen years old, had a heart that beat very fast after seeing him, making it impossible for Long Chuqing to make a proper diagnosis.

She was really helpless and could only comfort her patient: "Girl... don't look at him, look at me, relax slowly, calm down first."

After hearing this, the little girl looked into her eyes, and Long Chuqing looked at her gently, offering comfort.

However, her heartbeat, which had been gradually calming down, suddenly quickened again. She felt that although the female doctor in front of her was covering her face, her eyes were extremely beautiful.

She lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly, deciding to keep her eyes on the ground.

After helping the little girl with her medical examination, Long Chuqing pulled Xiao Han behind the cashier's counter and made him sit down.

"If you're not going back, then stay here. Sitting here is getting in my way."

"Okay!" Xiao Han nodded in agreement. He didn't dare to follow her as she left, so he sat behind the counter and waited.

When I'm really bored, I pick up the ledger on the table and flip through it, and then look at the medical books next to it.

After looking at it for a while, I found the book was so densely covered that I couldn't understand it, so I put it back.

He rested his chin on his hand and sat behind the counter, continuing to watch Long Chuqing work.

Qingying Qingying helped with the fire and brewing of medicine in the backyard, distributing it to patients with more serious conditions.

It was past 7 PM when the patients finally left one by one, and the pharmacy became much quieter after they were gone.

Taking advantage of the remaining time today, Long Chuqing took the pulses of several doctors. Although their bodies were generally healthy, they still had some minor ailments.

They usually prescribe their own medicine, and Long Chuqing inquired about their prescriptions and made some improvements.

She also wrote a prescription for treating back pain and asked them to boil it into a medicinal plaster.

Dr. Yuan excitedly accepted the prescription and said, "Here's the prescription for us."

Long Chuqing nodded: "Hmm... but it's not suitable for every type of back pain. You should use it as appropriate. However, it is effective for most back pain caused by labor and prolonged sitting. You can also make it into medicinal patches for sale."

Dr. Yuan expressed his gratitude to her.

Finally, since there was still time, they gave each of them a few acupuncture treatments.
