After catching up on a good night's sleep, Shulan treated Xiaobao and Xiaocui to a delicious morning of food and drinks.
He then began to busy himself with the food stalls and medical clinics.
It has to be said that the bearded man is really efficient.
In this short period of time, and after she had only briefly explained her ideas, the food stalls and clinics were renovated quite nicely.
The food stall is fully equipped with tables, chairs, and even utensils for cooking.
He Fengmian has already trained a good group of waiters to help out, and they are just waiting for the ingredients to be prepared.
The clinic was the same; not only were medicine cabinets prepared, but even the medicines inside were ready.
Yes, I heard that in accordance with the principle of not wasting anything, these medicinal herbs and even the cabinets were moved from Renshantang.
At the time, the bearded man even asked her if she minded, and if she did, she could get a new one.
Shulan certainly didn't mind: "This is fine, it saves me a lot of trouble."
It saves time, effort, and money; if she even slightly objects to it, it's disrespectful to money.
She was simply curious: "Are all the people in your border town this warm and welcoming?"
The clinic hasn't even opened yet, but people come every day because of its reputation, and many even bring gifts and invitations.
He Fengmian did not mention that he had sent people to promote Shuji Medical Clinic in the city over the past two weeks.
Since Ren Shan Tang has closed down and there are no doctors left in the city, everyone is naturally concerned about this matter.
Shulan had no idea that the topic they had been talking about most lately was actually herself.
"I've heard that this young Dr. Shu is quite old, but his medical skills are remarkable."
"It was she and Doctor Wang who cured the last wave of disease among the refugees; more importantly..."
The man's mysterious expression naturally piqued everyone's curiosity: "What is it?"
After building up the suspense, the man slowly revealed, "She is Doctor Wang's junior sister."
Some people questioned, "She's a female doctor."
Immediately, some people objected: "What's wrong with female doctors? Can't female doctors treat patients?"
"Exactly, don't look down on people. Is Dr. Wang's junior sister an ordinary person?"
"Don't even mention that Wang Yaozhi became famous at a young age; he's someone who ranks highly in the martial arts world."
His master was even more remarkable; he was none other than Yu Linzi, the legendary physician who once caused a sensation throughout the entire Great Feng Kingdom.
The late emperor wanted her to enter the Imperial Hospital and become the head of the Imperial Physicians.
But he didn't want to be bound by anything, so he stayed in the Valley of Divine Healers and never went back into the martial world.
Wang Yaozhi, as his apprentice, was also a newcomer to the martial arts world. His medical skills, which could bring the dead back to life, made him famous throughout the martial arts world.
I heard that he and He Fengling, the eldest son of the He family, are close friends.
Having learned that his friend had lost both legs, he made a special trip to the border town to treat his friend's legs.
He even threatened that he would never leave the border until his friend's leg was healed.
Now that his junior sister is willing to come to the border town, isn't that entirely because her senior brother is also here?
With these two senior and junior disciples in the border town, they are truly blessed.
Shulan was both amused and exasperated upon learning of this.
I never expected Wang Yaozhi to be so powerful, and I only called him "senior brother" and I gained such a great advantage, becoming the golden goose of the border town.
However, this is a good thing. At least with this connection, people will definitely not dare to cause trouble at the clinic and food stall in the future.
She thought that she must take the opportunity to thank Senior Brother Wang properly, and treat him to a big meal when the time comes.
The names of the clinic and the restaurant in Shulan were simple and straightforward: Shuji Clinic and Chenji Restaurant.
Shulan also took the opportunity to announce something to Chen Ma and Xiao Cui: "Since we are leaving the Xie family, we can no longer bear the surname Xie."
Xiao Cui looked completely bewildered: "Then what surname does Miss want?"
"My surname is Shu, and from now on I will be called Shu Lan."
Xiao Cui thought the surname Shu sounded quite nice, and asked, "Miss, may I be called Shu Cui?"
These servants, especially those who had signed a death contract, were not allowed to have surnames unless their masters bestowed one upon them and made them household slaves.
Chen's mother gently scolded her daughter: "You have no manners."
Xiao Cui pouted, but Shu Lan said, "Shu Cui sounds quite nice."
She looked at Chen Ma and said, "If you don't mind, let Xiao Cui and I share the surname Shu."
Chen Ma didn't mind at all, and Xiao Cui clapped her hands happily: "From now on, my name will be Shu Cui."
Seeing her happy expression, Shulan smiled and said, "When the opportunity comes in the future, I will ask the General to help us get a household registration, so that when we leave the border town, we can live with a new identity."
Xiao Cui paused, then asked softly, "Miss, are we really leaving?"
Although I've only lived here for a little over half a month, I'm already a little reluctant to leave.
Shulan nodded firmly: "Yes."
Since the intention is to fake death, then naturally one must go far away and live under a completely new identity.
Looking at her young mistress's resolute expression, Chen Ma wanted to persuade her but didn't know how.
She thought the He family was quite good, and that the general wasn't as terrifying as the legends made him out to be.
But she felt that her mistress's wishes and happiness were more important.
In the end, he could only sigh and say nothing. When he heard his daughter say that she wanted to learn medicine from her mistress, he surprisingly did not object and nodded in agreement.
When the young lady asked Xiao Cui to think about what she could do in the future, she had no idea what she was capable of doing.
However, when she saw Rong Shu's grandson say that he wanted to be a doctor, she also had an idea. She wanted to follow her mistress to treat patients and save lives, and she wanted to become as skilled as her mistress.
Shulan nodded: "Okay, then you'll start learning about herbs with me tomorrow. From now on, my sister and I will practice medicine, heal the sick and save lives, and carry forward our Shu Family Medical Hall."
Suddenly, she froze.
For some reason, I remembered what my grandfather had once said: the plaque of their Shuji Medical Clinic had been passed down from generation to generation, and it had a history of eight hundred years.
