Chapter 289 Being kicked out

I have been revising this chapter and it still feels a little off, so I am posting it here first. I will let you guys make some minor revisions if I think it is better. If you have any ideas, please give me some suggestions. -

Not an apprentice anymore?

Zhuang Qingning was a little surprised, "I remember Brother Wencheng said he wanted to study medicine and become a doctor in the future, so why is he not in the pharmacy anymore?"

"Wencheng said he didn't want to be an apprentice anymore and wanted to do something else. He wanted to learn from my cloth shop and start a small business in the future. But from the way I see him, he looks like he was kicked out."

Zhuang Yutian said, "I asked around and it was pretty much what I guessed. Zhuang Wencheng was kicked out of the pharmacy by Doctor Ge."

Being kicked out? Zhuang Qingning pursed her lips immediately.

I suddenly remembered that when I first went to the county town to promote the mosquito repellent herbal bag, Zhuang Wencheng was scolded by Ge Tonghua.

At that time, I was a little worried about the relationship between Zhuang Wencheng and Doctor Ge, but I didn't expect that they would have a conflict so soon.

In addition, the incident caused by Zhuang Qinghe might have left Dr. Ge with a bad impression of Zhuang Wencheng.

What's more, Han Hu doesn't look like a good person. I'm afraid he is fanning the flames and instigating a lot of trouble.

Zhuang Yutian sighed again and continued, "That's why Wencheng was kicked out..."

"I heard that the mosquito repellent herbal bags prepared by Dr. Ge were not selling well, but the mosquito repellent herbal bags here are selling well. Wencheng and I are also related. And when you came to the cloth shop to eat at home that day, Wencheng seemed to have come to the cloth shop to look for you, but when he saw that you were not there, he went back. Since that day, this cloth shop has started to sell these herbal bags. It must be because of the herbal formula prepared by Wencheng."

"Doctor Ge felt that Wencheng was a traitor. He didn't keep the good prescription for the pharmacy and only cared about making money for his family. He was very unhappy. In addition, because of the previous incident with Zhuang Qinghe, he also felt that Wencheng had brought discredit to the pharmacy, so he drove Wencheng away."

"Wencheng was chased away. Although it wasn't entirely because of the mosquito repellent herbal bag, it was still somewhat related to it. The misunderstanding here actually caused trouble."

"I was just thinking about whether I should go and explain to Doctor Ge to see if I can clear up the misunderstanding, so that the master and disciple won't be completely separated because of this. Wencheng has studied medicine for many years, and it's a pity to break off the relationship like this..."

Zhuang Yutian looked at Zhuang Qingning and said, "So I'm telling you about this. Let's see if we can go talk to Doctor Ge together to explain the misunderstanding and let Wencheng go back to study medicine."

"Uncle Yutian."

Zhuang Qingning thought for a while, took a sip of tea, and said, "This matter was caused by us. In theory, we should explain it clearly, but I think this matter is not that simple."

"As for the matter of Zhuang Qinghe before, Aunt Wang asked my uncle to go to the county town to explain it clearly, but Doctor Ge did not listen to him. Instead, he concluded that Brother Wencheng was of bad character. As for the matter of the mosquito repellent herbal bag, Doctor Ge did not have any solid evidence. He just made groundless guesses and made a conclusion about Brother Wencheng. This is enough to show that Doctor Ge had the intention of driving Brother Wencheng away a long time ago. This matter was just him going with the flow to make things worse for himself."

"Besides, the rumors are spreading outside. When Brother Wencheng came out of the pharmacy, I guess Doctor Ge also told him clearly. If Brother Wencheng refuted it at that time, it means that it is useless to refute. If he did not explain, it means that he knew that refutation was useless and did not want to refute it. If we go again, I am afraid that it will be a loss of face for Brother Wencheng."

"So if I think about this matter, I'd better ask Brother Wencheng what he thinks. If he still wants to go back to the medicine shop, it's totally fine for us to explain. If Brother Wencheng doesn't want to refute or explain, and doesn't want to go back to the medicine shop, it would be unnecessary for us to do so. If Doctor Ge catches us again, he will say that Brother Wencheng is pestering us, which would be bad."

"Why not help Brother Wencheng find a better way?"

Zhuang Qingning said, "But this is just my own guess. It all depends on Brother Wencheng's opinion."

"That's true." Zhuang Yutian nodded. "The main thing is what Wencheng thinks. If there are other things that we don't know about, if we take the initiative to go to the pharmacy and tell them, it will easily cause other troubles, which will be bad for Wencheng."

"Uncle Yutian, this is what we are talking about here. I wonder if Brother Wencheng will return to this medicine shop..."

Zhuang Qingning then told Zhuang Yutian the exact story of how Zhuang Wencheng was scolded by Doctor Ge in the pharmacy because his herbs were swapped.

"At the time, I felt that there was something wrong. Brother Wencheng is not the type to do this kind of thing. The person who did this was either Doctor Ge or the man called Han Hu. No matter who did this, I'm afraid Brother Wencheng will have a hard time in the pharmacy."

"Doctors are kindhearted, but some people have evil hearts. If things go wrong, something terrible will happen. Brother Wencheng might even be able to turn a disaster into a blessing if he leaves that place."

"I didn't know about this before." Zhuang Yutian was quite shocked and smacked his lips repeatedly. "Now that I know about this, this medicine shop is really not worth it. Let me ask Wencheng when I have time to see if he is still willing to learn medicine. If he wants to learn medicine, I will also ask Cheng's medicine shop if they accept apprentices. See if I can help Wencheng pave the way because of the business relationship between the two families."

"If he doesn't want to study medicine and wants to do business, he might as well learn business from me first. In the future, whether he wants to open a shop or do small business, it's up to him. Now that the shop is too busy with the mosquito repellent herbal bags, he can learn how to do business."

Zhuang Wencheng had always been with Mrs. Wen since he was a child. Mrs. Wen treated his nephew well, so Zhuang Yutian could not be vague.

Zhuang Qingning could see Zhuang Yutian's concern for Zhuang Wencheng and smiled slightly. But when he thought of the indiscriminate Doctor Ge and Zhuang Wencheng who was innocently implicated because of the mosquito repellent herbal bag, his brows suddenly furrowed.

"Come to think of it, I've been thinking about going to the county town to buy some things for the past few days, and I've been busy the whole time. Uncle Yutian happened to be back today, so Qingsui and I can go to the county town together in Uncle Yutian's carriage?"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

It just so happened that today was the day when Zhuang Qingsui didn't have to practice calligraphy and could take a break, so he took her to the county town for a stroll, which was also a way to take a break.

Next, buy a few books to read.

The most important thing is to go and see Zhuang Wencheng, visit him and ask him what he thinks.

No matter what Zhuang Wencheng thinks or which path he wants to take, she will help her childhood friend.

"Okay." Zhuang Yutian nodded quickly in agreement.

Originally, he was thinking of getting some herbs and then heading to the county town in the afternoon. However, since Zhuang Qingning was going to the county town, and he said he was going for a stroll but actually wanted to see Zhuang Wencheng, Zhuang Yutian decided to go back early in the morning.
