Dr. Zheng sighed for the hardships this young couple had endured. Lin Yue had come to terms with Zhao Erhu's injury and his unresponsive comatose state; she did not mind at all. Instead, her face bore a resolute smile, "I believe my husband will wake up one day. The children and I are all waiting for him."
"The sincerity of a young lady's heart will fulfill her wishes," said Dr. Zheng, a rare utterance for a medic to make such groundless consolations.
Over the past few days, the medicine Zhao Erhu took had truly stabilized his condition. Dr. Zheng prescribed a new, cheaper remedy—only one hundred coins for a dose. However, it would be needed for another month or two, still a significant expense.
