Siheyuan: I found a wife right after I crossed over

Chen Xueru said, "Mr. Zhihui, I came to see you today because Yang Chong has a prescription that contains some herbs that cannot be found in state-owned pharmacies, but are indispensable. I thought that since your family runs such a large pharmacy, you must have what others don't have, so I brought him here to try our luck."

Fang Zhihui showed a hint of pride on his face: "Xue Ru, you are right. I dare not say anything else about my Fang family, but when it comes to medicine, it is the most complete in the city. If I don't have it here, then there is no need to look for it in the city."

Then he stretched out his hand towards Yang Chong and said, "Give it here, let me see which medicines you want."

Fang Zhihui's attitude was somewhat arrogant and he looked down on everyone. His attitude towards himself and Chen Xueru was completely different, but Yang Chong was too lazy to argue with him. After all, the most important thing now was to find the medicines that Xiu'er needed.

So he immediately took out the prescription from his pocket and handed it over: "Mr. Fang."

Fang Zhihui took the prescription, looked at it for a few seconds, and said with disdain: "Ginseng, Poria, Astragalus, Atractylodes, these are all medicines for treating physical weakness. This is just an ordinary prescription for treating physical weakness, no..."

Fang Zhihui frowned and said, "What kind of quack doctor prescribed this prescription? It's simply nonsense."

Chen Xueru was stunned: "What's wrong, Zhihui, is there something wrong with this prescription?"

Fang Zhihui showed the prescription to Chen Xueru, his tone full of boasting: "Xueru, look, this prescription contains Astragalus, but why is there Rhizoma Cibotii in it? How can this medicine be used together with Astragalus? These two herbs will counteract each other when put together. Not only will there be no effect, but it will also cause side effects."

He kept shaking his head and said, "The person who prescribed this medicine is either a quack or a green hand who has just learned a little bit. It's completely nonsense."

His words made Chen Xueru feel a little embarrassed and she looked at Yang Chong awkwardly.

Although she didn't really believe that Yang Chong could really treat illnesses, she felt a little embarrassed when Fang Zhihui talked about the prescription in this way in front of her.

Of course, she also knew that Fang Zhihui was jealous and deliberately criticized Yang Chong's prescription.

But this made her feel very embarrassed, after all, Yang Chong was her friend.

She was afraid that Yang Chong would get angry and leave in anger.

But Yang Chong didn't show any sign of anger on his face. Instead, he smiled and said, "Yes, Mr. Fang criticized that the person who wrote this prescription is indeed a young man who has just started to learn medicine. I'm sorry to make you laugh." Then he pointed to the names of several medicines at the end of the prescription and asked, "Do you have these medicines, Mr. Fang?"

Fang Zhihui was satisfied with his attitude, so he casually said, "Is there any medicine that our Fang family doesn't have?" and looked in the direction Yang Chong pointed.

But after reading it, I was slightly stunned.

Yang Chong asked quickly, "Mr. Fang, do you have these herbs in your house?"

Fang Zhihui did not answer, but frowned.

Yang Chong's question about these medicines was a little difficult for him to answer. Not only did he not have any of them at home, but he had never even heard of the name of one of the medicines.

He had heard of the other two herbs, but that was just because they had never been in his family. His grandfather, Mr. Fang, had mentioned them before, but he said that the properties of these herbs were difficult to control, so doctors nowadays did not dare to use them easily, so they were rarely seen.

But now these two medicines actually appear on the prescription of a young boy, which is indeed strange.

Fang Zhihui had just boasted that his company had the most complete range of medicines, but he didn't want to slap himself in the face so soon.

Especially in front of Chen Xueru, the woman he loved.

He frowned and looked at them, then said, "These are inferior medicines. My family has never had such medicines."

Chen Xueru was a very insightful person and she had no idea what he was thinking based on his expression just now.

But there was nothing he could say and he could only look at Yang Chong helplessly.

In fact, Yang Chong had already been mentally prepared, because he had already heard from Fang Zhihui's words that this was an uneducated young man, and it was reasonable that he didn't know these medicines.

So I didn't bother to care about what he said, I just smiled and nodded: "Forget it if you don't have it, sorry to bother you." Then I reached out and took the prescription back.

Chen Xueru said apologetically, "I'm so sorry, Yang Chong. I thought I could find the medicine you need here, but I didn't expect to disappoint you. How about we look somewhere else?"

Yang Chong nodded. Since there was nothing here, there was no need to stay here any longer. It would be better to try somewhere else.

The two were about to leave, and Fang Zhihui got anxious when he saw them: "Xueru, why are you in such a hurry to leave when you just arrived? I wanted to invite you to try some Tibetan beef strips from my home. You know, this is what Minister Liu gave to my grandfather when he came to see him last time. I couldn't bear to eat it, so I saved it for you."

Chen Xueru hated this young man in her heart, but she still smiled politely and said, "No, Mr. Zhihui, let's talk about it another day. Today I am here with Yang Chong to help him find medicine. Since you don't have it here, we have to look somewhere else."

As he said this, he raised his leg and was about to leave with Yang Chong.

Fang Zhihui was so anxious. He had been pursuing Chen Xueru for a long time, but Chen Xueru was always lukewarm towards him. Not to mention having dinner together, even when he went to the cloth shop to find her, she would often find excuses to avoid him.

Today, Chen Xueru came to his house for the first time. This was a rare opportunity, but he didn't expect that she would leave before she could finish a few words.

"Xue Ru, didn't I tell you? The medicine I don't have at home can't be bought even if you search the whole city, so why bother looking for it? By the way, the last time I went to Shanghai, I brought you two boxes of rouge powder. Wait a minute, I'll get them for you now." Fang Zhihui said.

Chen Xueru was about to refuse when she heard someone in the main courtyard shout, "Mr. Fang, hurry up, help!"

Then a young and strong man was seen hurriedly coming from the main courtyard carrying an old man in his sixties or seventies on his back. There was a man and a woman beside them. The man was in his forties or fifties, wearing a green military uniform, and the woman looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old. Both of them had anxious looks on their faces and were jogging to protect the old man.

The old man was lying on the young man's back, his face was sallow, his eyes were slightly closed, and his face was covered with sweat.

The man ran while shouting, "Mr. Fang, hurry up, my father's illness has recurred, please help me, Mr. Fang!"

Fang Zhihui saw this and didn't bother to bother Chen Xueru anymore. He quickly went over to her and said, "Uncle Zhou, what happened to Grandpa Zhou?"

Before the middle-aged man could say anything, an old man's voice came from the main hall: "Is that Zhennan? What's wrong?"

As he spoke, an old man with white hair and beard came out quickly from the main hall.

Before the middle-aged man Zhou Zhennan could answer, the old man had already seen the old man being carried on his back, and his face suddenly changed: "Stop, someone, bring a rattan chair over and let Mr. Zhou sit down."
