Chapter 110 Where did the book come from?
The next day, Tang Man was sleeping soundly when she suddenly felt someone pulling her quilt. She opened her eyes dazedly and saw Xie Yan, who was already dressed neatly. He smiled and touched her head, "Dear, get up. We have to take the bus back later."
"Hmm..." Tang Man responded vaguely, stretched out his hand to pull the quilt over his head again, covering his head, and muttered sullenly, "We only slept for a few hours, why is there such a big difference?"
Because of someone, she only slept for a few hours last night. Now her head is still dizzy and her body is soft and she has no strength at all. But someone is completely the opposite. He still looks energetic and shows no signs of fatigue.
"Hehe... that's because your husband is in good health." Xie Yan scratched Tang Man's nose lovingly, "Be obedient and get up quickly."
"Hmm!" Tang Man hummed, but showed no intention of moving.
Xie Yan thought she just wanted to stay in bed for a while, so he didn't call her anymore. He turned around to wash and pack his luggage. When he finished, Zhou Yonglin and others came and knocked on the door.
"Coming." Xie Yan responded, but turned around and saw that his wife had fallen asleep again under the quilt.
"Oh!" Xie Yan shook his head helplessly, walked over, hugged Tang Man and helped her sit up, let her lean on him, helped her put on her clothes, and then carried her to the balcony to wash up.
After washing up, he carried the person to the door and opened it.
The people outside the door were all stunned when they saw Tang Man being carried out. Zhou Yonglin quickly asked, "Master, what happened to Master's wife?"
"She's fine, she just hasn't woken up yet. Yonglin, help me carry the backpack."
Xie Yan said something, then carried Tang Man out of the room. Zhou Yonglin hurried into the room and carried the backpack out.
The group went downstairs, checked out of the room, found a place to have breakfast, and then went to the bus station.
The sky was still gray at this moment, and there were not many people on the bus to Qingshan Commune. Xie Yan carried Tang Man to the last row and sat down.
After the car started, Tang Man was in a state of half sleep and half wakefulness. Various sounds filled the surroundings, including the sound of the vehicle's engine, the sound of the tires rubbing against the ground, and the passengers' conversations and coughs. These sounds intertwined together and gave her a headache.
In addition, the car was shaking violently, tilting to the left, then to the right, and then bumping again. This shaking caused Tang Man's body to be constantly tossed around, forcing her to hold on to Xie Yan's clothes tightly, and from time to time she would rub against his arms, looking for a comfortable position to continue sleeping. However, every time she was about to fall asleep, she would be awakened by a violent shaking, and then she would readjust her posture, but would soon be interrupted by a new shaking...
"Headache." Tang Man muttered and opened his eyes.
"Why do you have a headache? Did you catch a cold?" Xie Yan quickly grabbed Tang Man's hand and took her pulse.
Tang Man glared at Xie Yan with resentment, "I don't have a cold, I just have a headache caused by lack of sleep. It was too noisy in the car and I couldn't sleep."
"I'm sorry, sweetheart. It's all my fault." Xie Yan also knew that he had gone too far last night. He apologized to her with an apologetic look on his face, and then said softly, "Do you want to eat something first, and then have a good sleep after you go back?"
See Tang Man nodded.
Xie Yan picked up Tang Man and let her sit on the seat next to him. He took out the tea egg he bought at the bus station from his arms and let him hold the tea egg close to his arms. It was still warm when he took it out.
After peeling the tea egg, Xie Yan put the egg in Tang Man's hand.
After eating the eggs and sitting down to rest for a while, Tang Man felt a little more energetic and was in the mood to chat with Xie Yan. "How long have you been walking?"
"Should be arriving soon."
"Oh!" Tang Man responded, looked out the window, and stopped talking.
Xie Yan thought she was unhappy, so he leaned over and lowered his voice and said, "Are you angry because I didn't take you to the black market this morning? We spent all the money we brought last night, so we can't go to the black market anymore. You go to the black market to buy those things first, and before we go back to Beijing, we'll go to the county town a day in advance and go see it then, okay?"
"If you hadn't said it, I would have forgotten about it." Tang Man turned her head and smiled at him. "I'm not angry, I just don't have much energy and don't want to talk."
"Well! Then rest for a while."
Knowing that she was not angry, Xie Yan did not bother her anymore.
After getting off the bus, Xie Yan was worried that Tang Man was tired, so he went to call for a ox cart. As soon as he got home, Tang Man went into the house and fell asleep.
I slept until about three in the afternoon.
When she got up, Xie Yan was tidying up the medicine cabinet. Seeing him come out, Xie Yan smiled and said, "Are you awake? Are you hungry? Go wash up first so you can eat."
Xie Yan put down the work in his hands, pulled Tang Man out, squeezed toothpaste for her, went to the house to fetch hot water, and then took out the warm food in the pot and put it on the table.
When Tang Man finished washing up and walked back to the main room, she saw two bowls of rice on the table and asked, "You haven't eaten either?"
"I'm waiting for you to eat together." Xie Yan explained with a smile and waved to Tang Man, "Come and sit down to eat."
"Yeah!" Tang Man responded and sat down to eat.
After dinner, when Xie Yan finished washing the dishes and returned to the main hall, Tang Man asked, "Brother Yan, can I use your herbs?"
Xie Yan didn't ask Tang Man what she was going to do with the herbs. He smiled and nodded, "Use them! It would be best if you can use them up before you go back. Otherwise, I don't know how to bring them back."
In order to prevent Xie Yan from disturbing her while she was making medicine, Tang Man stuffed two medical books that she had taken out from the Lingquan space in advance into Xie Yan's arms.
"You don't have any regular patients recently, and you don't need to look at review materials anymore, so take these books and have a look."
“Medical book…” Xie Yan casually opened the cover and looked at the table of contents. As he read, his eyes became hot. He held the two books in his hands as if he had found some great treasure. “Manman, where did this book come from?”
When taking the book, Tang Man had already thought of an excuse, "I asked my brother to send it to me. I told you before that I have been interested in medical books for a while. Although most of the time I read books on Western medicine, I still read some books on Chinese medicine. These are all collected with great difficulty. You have nothing to do now, so read more. Maybe it will be helpful to you."
"This book is very good and will be of great help to me." Although he had only looked at the table of contents, Xie Yan knew that the two books in his hands would be of great help to him.
"As long as it helps, okay, go read your book, I'm busy now."
Tang Man said perfunctorily and walked to the medicine cabinet to get some medicine.
"Oh!" Xie Yan responded, then sat on the recliner with the book in his arms and began to read it seriously.
Tang Man grabbed the herbs he needed and returned to his room. He closed the door, slipped into the space, sat in the bamboo house and began to boil herbs and make pills.
