Facing multiple blows in succession, his old issues with stomach and back pain flared up.
After finishing the spare medication brought from the Jing family, he went to the hospital to buy more.
In the past, those medications were prepared for him at home by Jing Anrou, and he had never purchased them himself.
Today, when he had the doctor write a prescription, he went to the pharmacy to pick up the medication only to find out that the drugs Jing Anrou provided him were all expensive.
A box of medicine cost several days' worth of his wages.
Buying several boxes would use up half a month's salary.
He couldn't bring himself to do it, so he returned to the doctor to have a new prescription written for regular affordable medications.
Holding the medicine, he walked out of the hospital in a daze.
After taking dozens of steps, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't asked the doctor how to take the medicine he got today.
He had always taken those expensive medications before.
