Only this green, not disappointing the spring
Chapter 24 Entering the City (2)
It was also the first time for Li to walk into a rouge shop. Before she had time to look around, she smelled the rich fragrance.
Before she could feel envious, she was extinguished by the harsh tone of the shop owner.
Zhou Xiaoxi had encountered similar shop assistants many times in his previous life, so he was no longer surprised.
She smiled at the proprietress, said casually "excuse me", and then pulled Li away.
The two of them shook off the short and strong woman, and the mother and daughter first went to the cloth shop to sell the cotton cloth.
Li worked day and night for more than a month to get these two pieces of cotton cloth, but in the end she only sold them for 500 coins.
Speaking of pawning the jewelry at the pawn shop, Zhou Jun spent three taels of silver to buy the bracelet and silver hairpin, but the pawn shop disliked the tacky design of the jewelry and was only willing to pay half of the money.
So some women always say that buying expensive jewelry for themselves is a way of managing money and can increase its value.
Maybe they are just excuses for their vanity.
After struggling for an hour, the mother and daughter finally arrived at Huichun Hall.
The area of the clinic is not large. According to the calculation method in the previous life, it is about 100 square meters.
However, unlike in the previous life, the shops here all have backyards, but it is unknown how big they are.
The plaque with three large characters "Huichuntang" is simple and exquisite, and there is a string of small characters written in the lower right corner - No. 108.
Zhou Xiaoxi guessed that this was probably somewhat similar to the franchise store in his previous life, and should refer to the 108th store.
It seems that Huichuntang has branches all over the Da'an Kingdom, so the bosses behind it should all belong to the same family.
Regaining their composure, Zhou Xiaoxi and Li entered the clinic.
As soon as Mrs. Li entered, she saw Doctor Zhang who had treated her husband before. He looked nothing like the 'Doctor Zhang' who went to her house to teach Xiaoxi and her sisters how to identify medicine.
It can be seen that he was really worried and confused at that time, and he didn't care about anything else except curing Zhou Jun's illness.
Doctor Zhang also saw the person coming, and he still remembered this woman.
After all, it is rare for someone to suffer a stroke at such a young age. This woman has always been loyal to her husband and is a kind person.
He once left a letter to me, saying that a little girl named Zhou Xiaonan would come to me to study medicine in the future and was said to be very talented.
Could it be the little girl in front of me? She looks quite smart.
"I guess you must be Doctor Zhang. I've heard of your great name for a long time, and today I finally get to meet you in person!"
Zhou Xiaoxi greeted the old man in front of him gracefully.
Doctor Zhang couldn't help but laugh. He was a doctor in a small county town, and he was very different from that person. How could he have heard of such a great name?
"You are Zhou Xiaonan? Are you planning to start studying medicine by coming to see me today? It's been less than a month, and your father is able to walk in the ground?"
If this is true, it would be a miracle, but Doctor Zhang doesn't believe it.
Zhou Xiaoxi originally thought that some explanation was needed, but he did not expect that the other party would immediately remember the instructions of "Doctor Zhang", which showed that the other party took it very seriously.
I am sure that these two people must have a close relationship.
"My daughter Zhou Xiaoxi meets Doctor Zhang. Zhou Xiaonan is my sister. She was at home taking care of my father and couldn't come." Zhou Xiaoxi acted like a lady and saluted obediently.
Then he went on to explain, "I came here today to buy medicine. The prescription is still missing one ingredient, ginseng, and I haven't had the chance to come to the city to purchase it in the past few days."
Doctor Zhang had a general idea of this family's situation.
He made an exception and stayed in Huaihua Village for three days, just to help two little girls who knew nothing about pharmacology to learn the herbs in a prescription.
Originally, it would have taken only a few clicks to completely resolve the family's predicament, but that person chose the most troublesome method.
With my limited experience, I couldn't figure out the tricks here, but one thing was clear - I could only give advice and not take on all the responsibility. After figuring this out, Doctor Zhang knew what to do.
He looked at Li.
"I have a copy of the prescription. The ginseng cannot be omitted. However, this ginseng is not cheap. I wonder if this lady can afford it. I have no intention of looking down on you. It's just that even this inferior ginseng costs five taels of silver."
After hearing this, Li's face changed. This ginseng is so expensive! I only have three taels of silver in my hand. Isn't it a waste of time today?
Li stood there in a daze, not knowing how to start or what to say.
Zhou Xiaoxi couldn't help but frown. She knew that ginseng was valuable and estimated its approximate price.
She originally thought that even if she didn't have the money to buy one, half a stick would always be fine.
In my previous life, Chinese medicine stores always sold ginseng slices, but I didn't expect that here they can only sell them by the plant. Is this going to be a wasted trip? I really can't bear it.
Suddenly remembering something, Zhou Xiaoxi immediately asked:
"Doctor Zhang, I heard that ginseng roots are also useful, but they are less effective. Is this true or not?"
Doctor Zhang nodded with satisfaction. This little girl was indeed smart and clever.
"You are right. Although the medicinal effect is a little weaker, if the dosage is double that of ginseng, it can basically make up for it. However, our store does not have ginseng whiskers for sale. I can recommend a place where you should be able to buy some."
"As for the price, about one tael of silver for one tael of ginseng whiskers."
Hearing this, Li immediately felt relieved. She could still afford it, so she thanked him repeatedly.
"Doctor Zhang, I have something else to trouble you with. I brought some herbs that we prepared today, and I want you to check if there are any problems. Is that okay?"
Zhou Xiaoxi raised the basket in her hand high, her eyes full of anticipation, making it hard for people to refuse.
Of course, Dr. Zhang had no intention of refusing.
He took the bamboo basket and uncovered the green cotton cloth covering it. A light medicinal fragrance wafted out of the basket.
Doctor Zhang was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the quality of the herbs processed by these two girls was actually very good. Although some of them were not so good because of the inappropriate picking season, they were generally very good.
"Huh? What's with this honeysuckle? It's not in your father's prescription!"
Taking the wrong medicine can be fatal. This little girl won't make such a mistake, right? Doctor Zhang looked at Zhou Xiaoxi in astonishment.
Zhou Xiaoxi, who had forgotten to pack a bag of honeysuckle, looked embarrassed.
"I forgot to tell you that. I wanted to ask you if the clinic accepts medicinal herbs. I picked this bag of honeysuckle flowers on the mountain. My sister and I happened to come across a large bunch of buds that were about to bloom."
It turned out to be a false alarm. Doctor Zhang pointed at Zhou Xiaoxi helplessly.
"You little girl, you made my palms sweat!"
He reached out and grabbed a handful, then slowly spread it out, then picked up a small pinch and put it to the tip of his nose to smell it carefully. Doctor Zhang nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, the buds are swollen but not yet open, with a fresh fragrance and high quality. I will take them. How about one ounce of honeysuckle flowers for one hundred coins?"
