In addition to these, Wu Jindi also held a basin in her hand and knocked frantically at the door of Yuncaotang, which immediately attracted a large group of old people with the surname of Qi who were strolling on the street to come and watch.
After all, this place was at the entrance of a pharmacy, and Lu Dabao had a cloth strip with the words "blood debt" written on it wrapped around his head. Anyone who saw this would have all sorts of thoughts, wondering if someone had died from taking the medicine from the pharmacy or something like that.
Someone asked, "What are you doing? Did the pharmacy kill someone?"
Wu Jindi's face froze, and she said hurriedly, "If I'm not going to kill anyone, I'll be dead soon. If they don't give me an explanation today, I'll crash to death at the gate of Yuncaotang."
When they heard that she wasn't going to kill anyone, everyone's interest dropped by half. But when they heard that she was going to die in front of the Yuncao Hall, their interest level went up to the maximum again.
"What's going on? Why are you crying like that? Tell us quickly, we can all help you."
Wu Jindi wiped her face and began her passionate and moving interpretation, telling a whole story about the cooling ointment. The story was so tortuous and bizarre that everyone was stunned.
The old man standing at the door watching the show sighed and thought it was a pity that this woman didn't become a storyteller, as it was just an unnecessary mouth.
The old man said to Tang Yu beside him, "Go call your sister and ask her to come over."
Tang Yu went there quickly.
At this time, the elderly people who were watching began to help Wu Jindi and Lu Dabao denounce Yuncaotang, asking them to compensate for the losses of others as soon as possible, remove the cooling cream from the shelves, and apologize in the newspaper.
The old man rolled his eyes, walked out and stood in front.
Someone recognized the old man and said hurriedly, "This is Doctor Gu from Yuncaotang. Let's hear what Doctor Gu has to say."
Wu Jindi glanced at the old man and began to wipe away her tears again. "What good can he say? He was the one who kicked us out yesterday."
The ignorant onlookers immediately sympathized with him, with some accusing him, "Doctor Gu, what you're doing at Yuncaotang is truly unethical. Aren't you forcing people to death? If you want their secret recipe, why don't you just buy it? How can you just rob them? In the past, you'd be paraded through the streets for exploiting ordinary people like this."
The old man glanced at the speaker. "It's 1980 now, and your level of accusation hasn't decreased at all. It seems you've done this a lot before. How many people have you paraded through the streets? How many intellectuals have you killed? How many shops have you smashed and looted? Tell us all about your record."
The man's face flushed red. "Don't talk nonsense. I didn't do those things."
The old man sneered, "You know whether I have done it or not." He remembered this old man very clearly. This man was the one who smashed up his Gu's medicine shop. He would recognize him even if he was in ashes.
Some people around also recognized Lao Deng. Remembering how arrogant and domineering he was when he was looting and smashing things, they immediately took two steps back and stayed away from this kind of person.
At this time, someone else said, "Doctor Gu, don't talk nonsense. Just tell me whether your Yuncaotang has stolen the secret recipe from the young couple."
The old man cleared his throat and said to everyone, "This cooling ointment isn't some secret imperial recipe. Ancient medical texts and pharmacists all record its recipe. Several pharmaceutical factories in Beijing also produce cooling ointments, and hospitals also have them. I'm sure you've all seen them. The recipes are the same. As for the difference in efficacy, that's a matter of skill on the part of the pharmacists. Of course, they also contributed their own skills to improve the ancient recipe, making it even more effective."
With this said, everyone understood.
