Chapter 76: The Moon Waits, and the Water Overflows
As soon as Lin Chuxia opened the box, she noticed that what was inside were all handwritten prescriptions, a small stack of at least a dozen sheets.
“Master…”
Lin Chuxia didn't know what to say. These things could be said to be what the old man cared about the most, but now they were all given to her.
Old Master He frowned, "Put away that look on your face. I'm not dead yet. This thing is worthless and it takes up space at home. If you want to take a look at it, just take a look. If you don't want to look at it, it will be used as a fire starter when the meat is stewed. Anyway, take it away quickly."
Lin Chuxia laughed, put the medical book back into the box, and hugged it up, "Then I really want to be a fire starter, Master, please don't feel bad."
"Go away, go away too, it hurts my eyes to see you," Mr. He started to chase people away.
"Then I will really leave. Master, don't regret it. Don't worry, I will send the meat to you after it is stewed to taste and see if the meat stewed with the medical book as a fire starter tastes the same as before."
Lin Chuxia ran out while talking, and when she walked out of the door, a shoe flew out right after her.
There was cheerful laughter coming from the yard, and Mr. He also laughed through the glass.
Lin Chuxia carried the box back to the office in the courtyard, took out the medical book and flipped through it. There were many traditional Chinese characters on it that she didn't recognize, so she simply put it aside.
He took out the stack of prescriptions again and discovered that the paper used for the prescriptions was obviously of different ages.
The stack of papers at the bottom and the writing on them looked old. The papers at the top were neat and the writing was clear, and it was obvious that they were written recently. A smile flashed in his eyes.
Looking at the contents on the paper, the top part is the prescription, indicating the name of the medicinal material and the dosage, and the lower part is the applicable symptoms.
Most of them are common medicines used in daily life, and only a few are folk remedies for treating difficult and complicated diseases.
However, Lin Chuxia carefully discovered that those commonly used medicines were not quite the same as what she knew.
In her previous life, she was exhausted, weak, and often sick, and she often sought treatment from traditional Chinese medicine practitioners.
As the saying goes, long illness makes one a doctor. There were several prescriptions that she had used in her previous life, and she clearly remembered that the medications were slightly different.
She had never doubted Mr. He's medical skills. Grandma Su praised him so much. Mr. He's medical skills were definitely not comparable to those of ordinary doctors.
It’s just that these prescriptions were not passed down in the previous life, and perhaps they disappeared into history with the death of Mr. He.
Lin Chuxia put the prescription and medical book back into the small box and put the box directly into the space.
Maybe there is still one important thing she can do in her life.
…………………………
The business in the store was proceeding in an orderly manner. Seeing that Qin Yang's birthday was approaching, she took time to go to the city.
She planned to open her next steamed bun shop in Ancheng County, but Ancheng County is so small that no matter how delicious her food is, the market share of the two steamed bun shops will be almost the same.
With so many small businesses, you have to leave some room for others to make a living.
Lin Chuxia had been in business for her entire life in her previous life, so she knew the principle of leaving some room for man and some room for action.
When the moon is full, it wanes; when the water is full, it overflows.
This is also the reason why she was not angry when Aunt Sun, who was setting up the stall, took her place.
She did not have the courage like Bai Juyi to leave the surplus wealth for the people, but it was still okay for her to leave a part of the market for other elders and villagers.
Another thing is to go to the city to purchase some goods.
Ancheng County is a bit small after all, and she doesn't like many things there.
When she came back, she opened a branch. Then there were New Year's Day, Spring Festival and other festivals. According to her practice, she also had to arrange for holiday gift-giving.
Although her store is not as big as the company she owned in her previous life, details determine success or failure. She still needs to build up necessary interpersonal relationships and do the necessary favors.
She has established relationships with people like Li Jian, Wang Cheng, and Xu Changping. If she wants to maintain such relationships, she has to put in some effort.
There are a lot of good things in her space, but because they are too good, she can't use them.
However, the invisible suitcase called Space can be used.
After arranging the work in the store, I got on the bus to the city.
It was already autumn and chilly, but even a crowded means of transportation like a bus still had a sour smell. Lin Chuxia arrived early and found a seat by the window. She opened the window to let in the air, which made her feel much more comfortable.
More people came up one after another.
There are few buses from Ancheng County to the city, and there is only one trip a day, leaving in the morning and returning in the afternoon.
The car was soon filled with people, and many people stood in the aisle.
Many people were carrying large and small bags, and some even had two live chickens.
The two chickens had their feet and wings tied up. After they got on the bus, there were probably too many people, so they kept screaming and struggling.
The boy carrying two chickens looked embarrassed. He stood in the aisle, huddled up with the chickens in his arms, and kept apologizing to the people next to him.
Nowadays, people bring everything they want on the bus, and everyone is used to it.
Sitting next to Lin Chuxia was an old lady in her 50s. After getting on the bus, the old lady put her big bag between the two of them.
Lin Chuxia was thin to begin with, so she didn't argue with her and even moved to the side.
Who knew that the old lady would become more and more demanding. As soon as the car started moving, she kept squeezing in as the car swayed.
Unable to bear it any longer, Lin Chuxia could only remind, "Auntie, you can put your bag on the ground."
The old lady glanced at her and said, "I put important things in this bag. If I drop it on the ground, will you compensate me?"
"But you've already affected others by putting it here."
"If you don't want to be crowded, then stand. The seats on the bus are not yours. I can put them wherever I want." After saying that, he muttered, "You are so young and you think you are right to take up a seat."
Lin Chuxia looked at her fat face and knew that it would be a waste of words to talk to such a person, so she simply turned her face to the window.
The car has reached the main road, and it will take less than an hour to reach the city along this road.
At this time, the lady next to me spoke again, "Hey, I told you to close the window. It's so cold and you still have the window open. You're freezing to death."
Only then did Lin Chuxia notice that the old lady was only wearing a thin coat.
It is already late October, and Lin Chuxia has already worn a sweater under her coat, so she doesn't feel cold even when there is wind.
She glanced up and down at her like the old lady did, "The window on this bus is not yours. If you want to be in charge, come earlier next time and sit by the window."
The old lady glared angrily and said, "It's not you who is freezing." A gust of wind blew and she shrank her neck again.
Lin Chuxia turned up the collar of her clothes and said as a matter of course, "I am cold too, but the smell in the car is so strong that I can only sacrifice myself. I am not like some people who think that the whole car belongs to them as soon as they get on it, and even squeeze into other people's seats."
Someone sneered and laughed out loud.
Isn't it? You put things on someone else's seat and claim that the seat is not theirs. Then the window is not yours either. Of course, someone sitting next to the window can open it or close it as they please.
The old lady looked uncomfortable for a moment, "I'll move the bag for you, please close the window."
Lin Chuxia didn't even look at her. "Don't tell me, I'm not doing this for myself. I'm doing this so that everyone on the bus can breathe fresh air."
The old lady felt frustrated, and seeing that everyone around her looked like they were enjoying a good show, she glared at Lin Chuxia fiercely, pulled her clothes together, and huddled up with her arms around her.
The bus moved forward for a while and a few more people got on.
