Chapter 39 Shameless

When Xiao Li heard her ask this, he was also slightly surprised.

“You also know how to grind?”

Fu Yuling waved his hands and said, "I know a little bit."

"Besides, I don't need you to. I'm probably only a little older than you."

The young man in front of me, Xiao Li, has a buzz cut and a bright look in his eyes. He looks diligent.

"What's that called?"

Xiao Li looked at Congming and now felt a little uncomfortable.

Call me sister? They should be about the same age. It would be uncomfortable to keep calling you sister.

"Just call me by my name! Fu Yuling."

Xiao Li's name is quite simple, it's Li Jian.

As soon as Fu Yuling called his name, he got goosebumps.

"You should just call me Xiao Li! No one has ever called me by this name, and I almost thought it wasn't me."

Li Jian has a carefree personality and does not follow any particular rules.

Li Jian handed the previous task over to another person. During the chat on the way, Fu Yuling learned that this person was the boss's son.

I used to have a stable job in the county, but because I was more interested in my family's medicine, I simply quit and came here to work.

During the conversation, they discussed the properties of some herbs. Fu Yuling's eloquence made Li Jian's eyes light up. He felt like he had met a bosom friend, and he kept talking until they reached their destination.

Li Jian opened the door. It was bright inside and everything was stored there.

A complex medicinal aroma wafted into his nose, and Fu Yu Lingguang could roughly tell what the herbs were just by sniffing them.

"Shengdi, Morus alba bark, Phellodendron chinense, Cortex Moutan..."

"It should have the effect of clearing lung heat and nourishing yin."

When Li Jian heard Fu Yuling accurately describe the medicinal materials she had ground in the morning, he looked at her with admiration.

"Okay, guess what this is?"

Li Jian was eager to test the situation and took out a package. Fu Yuling put it under his nose and sniffed it. It tasted a bit sour.

“······If I’m not mistaken, it should be Schisandra chinensis.”

Now Li Jian really admired her from the bottom of his heart.

"It's Schisandra chinensis, which has the effects of stopping bleeding, detoxifying, stopping sweating, and strengthening the lungs. But the dosage is relatively small, this is all I have."

Speaking of this, he felt a little regretful.

"Come here and take a look. All the tools are here. Is there anything you need?"

Fu Yuling walked over and looked at the grinding tools. These things were much simpler than the equipment he used in real life. But in this era, having these things was already very good.

"Can you sell me a set of these?"

She was a little nervous when she asked this question. Judging from the appearance of these things, she knew that the owner took good care of them. She didn't know if there were any extra ones.

"You want it?"

Li Jian went to the cabinet next to him and looked around. "I'll just give you one set! But can you give me one set of the powder you make every time?"

He is now quite interested in this person. Judging from her familiarity with medicinal herbs, he feels that this person knows much more than he does.

His father did not intend for him to pursue this career, and he was also stubborn. His family had been studying medicine for generations, and he wanted the younger generation to take a different path.

Especially when he knew that he had given up a high-paying job to come to this small town, his father was mad at him and gradually gave up on him over time, but he still didn't teach him.

Therefore, Li Jian learned all this knowledge and skills by sticking around his father and learning from him.

It has been two years now.

Fu Yuling would naturally agree to this request.

But she wasn't the kind of person who would take advantage of others, so she stuffed some money into his pocket before leaving.
