Just giving verbal instructions was merely "medical advice" between friends. Whether or how it would actually be used remained the responsibility of the attending doctor at the Medical Affiliated Hospital. If Li Xu had actually written and stamped a formal prescription for him to take back, who would end up taking the blame if the old man had an unexpected accident at the hospital for completely unrelated reasons? It would be impossible to clear his name. Li Xu had no intention of inviting such unwarranted trouble.
Jiang Guojun walked to the emergency hall, borrowed a pen and paper from the nurse's station, and quickly jotted down the prescription and dosages Li Xu had just mentioned from memory: Ginseng, Atractylodes, dried ginger, and baked licorice.
At the time, Li Xu had purposefully repeated it twice so Jiang Guojun could memorize the exact dosages and herbal combinations.
