Clenching his hands, Simon wanted to step in.
However, just as he was about to move her feet, he stopped abruptly. Then, he quietly turned around and walked back to the kitchen.
After turning off the cooker hood, he took the bamboo mat and put the soup pot on it. The oil in the soup had already been eliminated by him in the process of cooking, which could make the soup look particularly bright. Several red dates floated on it, giving a fragrant smell.
As he withdrew his hands, footsteps came from the bedroom.
Emily came out in her slippers. When she saw that there were bowls and chopsticks on the table, she immediately asked, "Simon, can we eat now?"
Simon raised his eyelids and looked at her right hand for two seconds. Then he said calmly, "Yes!"
"It smells so good..."
Emily sat down to smell and her head almost touched the soup pot.
Simon filled up a bowl of soup for her. Then he rubbed her head with his big palm and said lazily, "Since it smells good, you should drink more. I put
ginger in it, which can keep out the cold!"
Although she had recovered from her cold, according to Simon's insistence, it was three days later that Emily returned to school.
He persuaded her on the excuse of preventing her from passing her cold to her students.
In the morning, Emily only had one lesson. In fact, many primary schools in the city had canceled the subject of history, in order to lighten the burden on the children. But it was different here. It was lucky for them to have a teacher who was willing to teach them.
It was a lecture for children and the content was not profound, so it was easy for her.
After the class bell rang, Emily returned to her office. Many teachers went to the dining hall for lunch, so there were few people in the office. At the table at the door, Tyler was holding a thermos bottle in one hand and pouring water into the thermos cup in the other.
"Mr. Tyler, be careful!"
When Emily saw the water overflow the cup, she hurriedly shouted.
Tyler was startled. He hurriedly put down both the thermos bottle and the thermos cup and shook his hand. A large part of his hand was scalded. Fortunately, there were no blisters. "Ah! I was distracted. I forgot that I was pouring water!"
Emily stepped forward to help him deal with the wound. When she saw his sullen face, she asked, "Mr. Tyler, what's wrong with you? Why do you seem to have some worries?"
"I'm fine!" Tyler shook his head.
She thought he didn't want to say more, so she kindly said, "If there's anything I can do for you, you can tell me!"
It seemed that Tyler was afraid that she might misunderstand, he shook his head again and then explained. "It's really all right. Miss Sam, I'm fine. In fact, it's all about a student in my class!"
Emily asked in confusion, "What's wrong with the student?"
Tyler asked, "Do you still remember the lady who invited us to eat yak meat in her house?"
"Ahem, of course, I remember!" Emily nodded and scratched her neck unnaturally.
She certainly remembered that. At that time, with the help of Tyler, she made Simon jealous and he ended up getting drunk. In the evening, she finally conquered Simon...
Tyler continued to say, "Her son is a student in my class and had heart disease. I have helped send her son to the hospital twice, so she is very grateful to me! This child has returned to class for a few days now. He looks like he's recovering well, but his mother is suddenly sick! It's also heart disease!"
"I feel sorry to hear that. Is the situation serious or not?" Hearing this, Emily also frowned.
"It seems to be quite serious. It is said that she has not passed the dangerous period even now in the intensive care unit!" Tyler sighed. "The medical technology is not good enough here. Many equipment is not advanced, and the medical skills of doctors are also inferior. There is no way to operate at present! Her physical condition can't afford to transfer to another hospital, so it's hard to say whether she can get through this!"
