My years as a menswear boss

Chapter 198

Jiqiu took Anthony back to the clinic on Montgil Street. Fortunately, Beth just had a fever caused by a cold, and the herbs needed were all common, and her clinic had them.

Anthony clutched his hat and looked at the dim clinic. What caught the eye was the adult-high wooden cabinet with countless small drawers on it.

The young doctor opened the drawer and grabbed the herbs and put them on the palm-sized brass medicine scale. Finally, he wrapped the weighed herbs with oiled paper and wrote down the time and frequency of taking the medicine in an easy-to-understand way.

"Don't drink too much for the child, just cook according to the method on the medicine package, twice a day."

Jiqiu handed Anthony the three oiled paper packets. If she was an adult, she would not have repeatedly told her that children should not only use Chinese medicine carefully, but also control the dosage.

Anthony took the medicine pack gratefully, "Thank you, doctor!"

"Remember to bring the child here for a review in three days." Jiqiu said with some anxiety, and only after getting the man's assurance did she devote all her energy to checking the "treasures" she had collected.

Anthony seems careless, but in fact he is very careful in doing things. He helped Jiqiu divide the collected things into categories, instead of piling up so many things at the beginning.

Jiqiu looked at Anthony's figure rushing away, so he had to save his plans for the next time.

She took a razor and carefully scraped the green hairs on the fruits and vegetables onto the custom-made petri dishes, and shook them lightly to spread the penicillium on them.

Jiqiu put the petri dish under the microscope that she bought with all her money to observe, and then drew the appearance on the side of the paper.

Then she took the gonorrhoeae she had taken from Chloe and put them on it and waited for them to interact.

She found that gonorrhea was eliminated in a short while, 'Why is it so fast? '

Jiqiu tried to add staphylococcus bacteria taken from Beth Xiao on the second petri dish, and the rate of eradication of the bacteria was greatly reduced this time.It took several hours for the germs to be wiped out by Penicillium.

She recorded the speed at which various types of bacteria were eliminated on paper, but she couldn't determine whether the bacteria were eliminated quickly because they interacted with Penicillium quickly, or whether it was easier to be eliminated after it left the human body with reduced activity.

But the most important thing for her now is to find a way to extract penicillin, an extract of Penicillium, and use it on humans. This is a big problem for Jiqiu.

Jiqiu fell into her own research, she couldn't feel the passage of time, until she recovered and found that the sky outside was already bright.

'It's already been a night? ! ' She was a little surprised, at this time there was a "cuckoo" cry from her stomach.

Jiqiu felt dizzy after leaving the lab bench. She held onto the table for a while before putting on her coat and going out. She decided to go to a nearby restaurant to buy some breakfast to take home.

Back home, Jiqiu bumped into Mrs. Louise head-on, she interrupted the housekeeper's apology, "Why are you so flustered?"

"Sir, you are finally back!" Mrs. Louise exclaimed loudly when she saw the young man covered in morning dew, as if she had met a savior, "Miss has locked herself in the study room all night. Let others disturb her, and locked the door of the study."

"Oh? I'll go and have a look." Jiqiu handed the toast wrapped in parchment paper to Suzy who was beside him, then took off his coat and hung it on the hanger at the door, "Go heat a pot of milk and put some honey in it. "

"Sir, why didn't you come home last night?"

Susie raised her round apple face and asked, she was simply curious why the young man who came home on time every day did not return at night.

The face of Mrs. Louise on the side was darkened, and she also knew that the master of the house hadn't come back all night, but as an adult "male", this couldn't be more normal.

"Because I ran into a very difficult case, I didn't notice that it was already overnight."

Jiqiu replied in a good-tempered manner, she felt that she should tell the housekeeper's wife, "I'm busy with an experiment recently, and I may not go home. If there is something urgent, let someone go to the clinic on Montgil Street to find me."

Mrs. Louise waited until the young man left before poking Susie on the forehead, "Don't ask about the whereabouts of the master casually, this is not our business."

Susie ran away holding her poked forehead, "I know, Mrs. Louise!"

Louise watched Susie's left ear go in and out of her right ear, sighed heavily, and said to herself, "This is how a master like us can tolerate servants like us."

Jiqiu stood outside the study room, bent her index finger and knocked on the door, but there was no response from inside, so she had to take off the wire on her waist belt, twist it a few times and put it into the keyhole, she put her face against the door and listened. There was the sound of mechanical activity inside, and then with a twist, the door was opened.

The thick dark green velvet curtains in the study were drawn, and Margaret fell asleep on the writing desk. She was covered with a woolen blanket, and the desk lamp gave off a dim yellow light.

Jiqiu crept up behind Margaret, pushed the bag a few times but still didn't wake her up, so he bent down, put one arm under her knees and the other through her back, and hugged the woman stand up.

Margaret was thin and not very heavy. Jiqiu easily carried her back to the bedroom, and covered her with a quilt thoughtfully.

"Sir, the milk is ready." Susie stood at the door and whispered. She looked at the sleeping hostess on the bed and didn't know how to wake her up.

Jiqiu took the milk on the tray she held in her hand and drank it all in one gulp, her stomach finally stopped protesting.

Susie watched the young man drink the milk, and asked with her eyes, 'Isn't it for the young lady? '

Jiqiu picked up the handkerchief on top and wiped the corners of her mouth. She winked at Suzie, "I just want to drink myself." '

Margaret stretched out on the bed, she rubbed her eyes, and found herself on the bed in the bedroom, "Why am I here?"

"Sir brought you back." Louise opened the curtains in the room to let the sunlight in to dissipate the humidity in the room. "He said that if you continue to work like this, he will hire someone to supervise your work and rest."

"Oh, that's terrible!" said Margaret, rubbing her face against the soft pillow, and she lingered on the bed for a while before getting up.

"Is Adrian at home now?" She asked the housekeeper who made the bed. Ever since Jiqiu took care of Mrs. Louise's daughter, she has been obedient to the young man. Even Margaret can't change the habit of the housekeeper .

"He came back in the morning and went out again in the afternoon." Mrs. Louise replied, she quickly put on a new sheet, and then opened the window to ventilate the room.

Margaret pressed her temple, "Is it already afternoon?"

Her first novel was so popular that publishers wrote to her as soon as it was finished asking her if she wanted to publish it.

Jiqiu reviewed the conditions given by those publishing houses, and after helping Margaret avoid some trap contracts, he chose a publishing house with a decent salary but a sincere contract.

After that, Margaret started to prepare for the publication. She proofread some previous erroneous texts by herself, and then corrected the misunderstandings.

Even if it was tiring, she enjoyed it, and for the first time Marguerite was recognized as a writer rather than a courtesan.

Now she is no longer indulging in the extravagant life of a firework girl, and has her own pursuit, so her heart is no longer empty, and she increases her understanding of life by reading letters from book fans every day.

"Have all my replies been sent?" Margaret sat at the table and asked the waiter who was carrying the meal. Now the letters from readers are not only expressing their love for her novels, but also asking her about her novels. Some even confide to her the troubles they encounter in their lives.

"It's all sent, miss." The waiter put the creamy mushroom pasta in the tray in front of Margarita, "This is the recipe provided by the master, and it is specially prepared for your stomach problems."

"I see." Margaret had a slight stomach problem, which was caused by not eating enough when she was a child. Now she doesn't feel much, and she didn't expect it to be remembered.

"Jack, do you know what Adrian ate?" She suddenly stopped the attendant who was about to leave.

Jack thought for a while, he was only responsible for Margarita's meals, and replied honestly, "I don't know, probably just eat at the restaurants near Montgil Street."

"No, all of Adrian's funds were used to buy microscopes, where did he get the money?"

Margaret frowned. She thought that the young man might be hungry, and the food in his mouth would soon taste bad.

"You can finish your lunch first, and I'll ask Osses to make one and send it to Mr."

Jack looked at the anxious Margaret, and quickly stopped her impulsive thoughts. After all, the husband told him that he must let the lady finish the meal.

"Okay." Margaret had to pick up the fork again, she thought for a while and said, "Give me the finished lunch, I happen to be free, and I can send it to Adrian."

"Follow your orders, Miss." Jack bowed and left with the tray in his arms.

Marguerite quickly finished the pasta on the plate, and then went to the cloakroom to choose a suitable dress at random and prepared to go to Montgil Street to find Jiqiu.

Half an hour later, an elegant woman came to the door of the inconspicuous clinic. She found that the door was not closed, so she walked in directly.

'Why does it smell like Wellington steak? 'Margaret sniffed, and found that the air smelled not only of herbs, but also of meat.

She pricked up her ears, and when she heard a thrush-like voice, she couldn't help but push open the secret door of the clinic.

"Did I bother you?" Margaret said looking at the scene in front of her. At this time, Jiqiu was surrounded by a beautiful woman, helping her cut the steak.

"Margaret, why are you here?" Jiqiu looked suspiciously at her sister who came to visit suddenly.

"I'm worried that you won't have enough to eat. It seems I'm worrying too much." Margaret suppressed the idea of ​​screaming, and she recognized this unbelievably beautiful woman as Anais Petit, Rose of Paris with thorns.

"Who is she?" Anais looked at the person with an unfriendly expression.

"My sister." Jiqiu replied, she looked at Anais who was still angry and immediately put on a warm face.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Petit." Margaret reached out and shook hands with Anais. The atmosphere between the two seemed very friendly.

If Adrian was her younger brother, Margaret probably wouldn't have any idea, but she knew very well that Adrian was her younger sister!

Margaret, who wandered around Fireworks and Willow Lane, could tell at a glance that Anais had thoughts about the youth.
