Chapter 190: Shopkeeper Zhou Visits



This alone was enough to make him excited.

You know, before a medicine can be successfully refined, it takes an unknown amount of medicinal materials, which is not something that ordinary people can afford.

In the past, when he was not well-known, he used all his money to buy medicine in order to make it. He lived a very tight life and sometimes he couldn't even afford to eat.

This is also one of the important reasons why he has remained single until now.

How could he marry a wife if he couldn't even afford food? Moreover, he was still young at that time and didn't think marrying a wife was that important. He devoted himself to the great cause of refining medicine.

So much so that now...it's not that I regret it, but I just feel a little lonely being alone.

Later, he became famous for his skills in refining medicine. Some families extended an olive branch to him and wanted him to become their priest and refine medicine for them.

For most alchemists, becoming a priest of a family is a very good way out, although it comes at the cost of losing freedom.

What he hated most in his life was being controlled by others, so he refused all offers from those families and went out to struggle on his own.

Up to now, he has gained some fame in the circle of pharmacists, and he has no shortage of medicinal materials. However, compared with those who have a whole family to back them up, he is not as confident and can use them at will.

Now, I don’t have to become a sacrifice for a family and lose my freedom, and I have countless medicinal herbs to do experiments.

Coupled with his admiration for Shen Yizi's medical skills, Wang Hexian felt so moved by her that he felt like a man would die for his friend.

With Wang Hexian in charge of the clinic, Shen Yizi had much more free time and began to devote himself to the research and development of cosmeceuticals.

In this world, it is easiest to make money from women and children, and women make the most money.

In order to become beautiful, women are willing to sacrifice not only money but sometimes even their lives.

But after it is done, how to promote it? Han Baoluo's appearance at the Qunfanghui before, and the huge changes that took place before and after, have aroused the interest of many women. If Han Baoluo were still alive, she would send out invitations in her name, and many people would be willing to come to the banquet.

Too bad she's gone now.

Shen Yizi was just worrying about this, when within two days a great opportunity came to her.

A large carriage drove to the door of the clinic. Zhou Caifeng got off a horse and looked around.

He came this time with two purposes. One was to inform Shen Yizhi about the auction results of her two items.

Secondly, I brought my niece who had a strange disease to see a doctor.

Behind him, four people got out of the carriage one after another. They were Zhou Caifeng's sister-in-law Chen and niece Zhou Ruonan, as well as their personal maids.

Mrs. Chen was so worried about her daughter's illness that her hair turned white. She invited many doctors to see her, but none of them could cure her daughter's illness.

Her second brother said that he knew a very good doctor who might be able to cure Ruonan's illness. She thought that her second brother would never lie to her.

When she learned that Doctor Shen lived in the countryside, she thought that generally good doctors like to live in seclusion in the countryside, and some even like to live in the mountains, so she did not raise any objections.

However, when she arrived, she found that this countryside was very different from the poor and dull countryside she had imagined.

The blooming flowers and picturesque scenery are not enough to describe it.

The villagers we met on the road all looked energetic and prosperous, and seemed more relaxed than many residents in the city.

Seeing all this, Chen couldn't help but look forward to Doctor Shen even more.

"Miss Shen, I had a hard time inviting He Xian back to my pavilion, but he just quit after coming to your place and became your doctor. That's really not fair of you."

When Shen Yizhi came out to ask questions, Zhou Caifeng made a half-seriously joke.

Shen Yizhi smiled and said, "You can't blame me for this. It was Elder Wang who took the initiative to stay."

She glanced at the Chen mother and daughter beside Zhou Caifeng. The younger one was in her early twenties and had good facial features, but her complexion was not very good and she was so thin that she looked unrecognizable.

Seeing the woman's appearance, she had a general understanding of Zhou Caifeng's purpose.

Zhou Caifeng introduced both parties.

Upon learning that the young woman in front of her was actually Doctor Shen, Chen couldn't help but look surprised, "Doctor Shen is really young and promising."

Anyone who can be praised by her second brother must have something extraordinary, so she will not look down on Shen Yizi because of her age.

Shen Yizi brought them to the reception room and served them sour plum juice and iced watermelon.

"Eat some watermelon to beat the heat."

The dark purple sour plum soup is served in a transparent glass cup. Drops of condensed water flow down the wall of the cup, and bursts of cold air come out. Just looking at it makes people salivate.

The watermelon is peeled, cut into pieces and placed in a crystal bowl. A small fork is inserted into the watermelon, making it very convenient to eat.

Zhou Caifeng was not polite either, and said to Chen: "Miss Shen's food is really good. The cakes I brought home were sent by her. Didn't you mention it several times, sister-in-law?"

Hearing him speak so bluntly about family matters, Chen felt a little embarrassed. Seeing that Shen Yizhi didn't show any sign of abnormality, she was spared the embarrassment.

And she was indeed a little thirsty.

So I picked up the sour plum juice and took a sip. It was sweet and sour, refreshing and refreshing. The sour plum juice was unexpectedly delicious.

It seems that my second brother was right.

Over there, Zhou Caifeng had already started eating without any hesitation, nodding as he ate: "No wonder Old Man Wang didn't want to leave. If it were me -"

"If you were in my shoes, you wouldn't be willing to give up the huge business of Tianbao Pavilion." Wang Hexian walked in and added.

Without any hesitation, he forked a piece of watermelon from his bowl and put it into his mouth.

Chen and Zhou Ruonan knew Wang Hexian, and they quickly stood up and greeted him.

Wang Hexian waved his hands loudly, "No need, no need, get up quickly. Old Zhou, you are here for your niece Ruonan's illness this time, right?"

He also knew about Zhou Ruonan's illness and had tried to treat it, but unfortunately he was unable to cure it.

"That's right." Zhou Caifeng looked at Shen Yizhi, "Miss Shen, look..."

Just now, Shen Yizi carefully observed Zhou Ruonan and saw that even though she felt hot, she did not touch the watermelon, but just drank two sips of sour plum juice. Combined with her complexion, he had already made some judgment about her illness.

However, further understanding of the disease is needed.

Shen Yizhi nodded to Zhou Ruonan: "Miss Zhou, can you come with me to the room to talk alone?"

Zhou Ruonan showed a faint smile on her face: "I was a girl four or five years ago, and I am already married."

Shen Yizhi changed his tone: "Then can I call you Sister Zhou?"
