Chapter 138: Signs of a Change of Destiny
After the house was cleaned up, Wen Zhu and his family moved in directly.
After resting for two days and tidying up the house, Jiang Qin continued to set up his stall and started his business.
Because she was generous, on the first day she went to set up a stall to reserve a spot, she gave a bowl of cold noodles and a portion of crispy potatoes to the stall owners selling fruits and cloth shoes on her left and right.
The two of them laughed so hard that they couldn't stop, and kept refusing, "You use all this to make money in business, how can you take it for free?"
She refused with her mouth, but the smile in her eyes never stopped. In the end, she couldn't resist Jiang Qin and reluctantly accepted it.
Jiang Qin smiled and said, "I'm new here, and I'm counting on everyone to give me some recommendations. I've also just moved here and am not familiar with the surroundings. I'll take this to try. If it's delicious, please take care of my business and help introduce it to others. It's not a valuable thing."
The two older sisters who benefited immediately turned on the work ethic mode.
"Big sister, you've asked the right person. Our two families live nearby. No one is more familiar with this area than us. Let me tell you..."
The two older sisters started talking, like pouring out beans.
He explained everything clearly, including the surrounding street vendors, their geographical location, competitors, areas to avoid due to lack of business, school dismissal times, where workers tend to gather, and when people would come to check IDs. He also told her in advance about nearby people she needed to be careful of and avoid offending, so she wouldn't end up in trouble.
Jiang Qin directly penetrated into the local community through delicious food.
This is much better than her pushing a cart around looking for business.
Within three days, she had become a familiar face in the area where she set up her stall. She would greet almost everyone she saw on the street and call them by name.
We even have repeat customers.
A few days after they moved, the master also came.
Wen Zhu felt a little embarrassed. After all, she had agreed to study medicine, but because of school, she had to move. She had less time to go home. She still felt guilty.
As a result, the master looked at her intently.
"Humph, we agreed to seek help from Master when we have any troubles, you think I'm just talking nonsense?"
Then he led Wen Zhu to a secluded place three blocks away from her home.
That plaque is exactly the same as the one in town called "Wen's Medical Clinic", with just a few big words on it!
"My clinics are more than just the two in this small town. Just keep going, my disciple. Master's clinics are everywhere. Even if you pass the college entrance exam and go to Beijing, you won't have to worry about having nowhere to go. The door of my clinic in Beijing is always open to you. With Master here, you can go anywhere."
As he spoke, he put his hands behind his back and stepped through the threshold. Wen Zhu took a look around. This Chinese medicine clinic was much more luxurious than the ones in the small town. He quickly picked up the roast chicken and hurried to catch up.
"I usually see patients at the clinic. If you don't have time, remember to come and help. If you have something else to do, just go about your business. I'll still pay you."
After saying that, he proudly took the roast chicken that Wen Zhu had specially prepared for him, squinted his eyes, hummed a tune, and went inside.
Wen Zhu: ...
If she had known that her master was so powerful, why would she have bothered looking for a house? She should have clung to her master!
But fate was strange. The place she found herself living in was surprisingly not far from her master. It seemed that fate had its own plans.
After getting acquainted with the profession, Wen Zhu helped out for the whole morning, learning how to treat difficult and complicated diseases and helping to see a few patients before being driven away by his master.
Before leaving, the master reminded him, "I've reserved a room in the courtyard specifically for you to make face cream. I have the right people here, and they're all trustworthy."
Wen Zhu was just about to go in and take a look when he was stopped by his master.
"I'll check it next time. It's not done yet today."
Wen Zhu is still struggling with whether to temporarily stop the facial cream production line in the town after the summer vacation and resume it during the holidays.
But I feel a little reluctant to give it away, as it feels like a waste.
Who knew that the master was even more comprehensive and forward-thinking than she had imagined. He had prepared everything for her.
Her eyes were filled with tears of emotion, but before she could say a few words, her master pushed her forehead away.
"Ah, ah, ah, it's not a big deal. Don't cry in front of me. Otherwise, your parents will think that I, your master, am exploiting you!
I'm also worried that you'll be too busy running back and forth between town and city, and won't have time to properly study medicine, and will neglect your studies. Don't overthink it."
Wen Zhu looked at his master and smiled.
She doesn't believe it!
The old man felt a little uncomfortable. "There are just a lot of places. They are empty anyway. I will definitely give them to my apprentice."
"Thank you, Master!" Wen Zhu expressed his gratitude without hesitation.
She knew that the Master's words were not just a casual gesture. It must have taken a lot of effort.
The old man took a look inside.
Then he waved his hand in disdain at Wen Zhu, "Hurry up and go, hurry up and go. Go out for a walk and rest for a while. Don't be like an old man like me, staying in the clinic all day long, smelling of medicine."
Then he "drove" Wen Zhu out.
As soon as Wen Zhu left, he hurried to the backyard with the roast chicken. He smelled it as he walked, feeling very satisfied.
Seeing his old friend waiting in the yard, he beamed with joy, "My apprentice gave it to me. I'll give you a taste later when I'm in a good mood. I don't have much left."
The old monk in a gray cassock had a compassionate look on his face, but he looked extremely ordinary, like an ordinary passerby, with no recognition at all.
After seeing him, one can’t remember his appearance, only the compassionate look on his face.
He bowed and said with a smile.
"Monks don't crave these worldly things."
Wen Yun simply grabbed the whole chicken and started to eat it.
"You're not that lucky to eat it, it's not that I don't know how to share it."
The old monk nodded and said with a smile.
"It's been a long time since we last met, and you're still the same."
"However, from what I've seen of your disciple, the evil spirit on his face has faded a bit, as if there are signs of a change in his destiny. However, the road ahead is still bumpy. You need to be more careful. Amitabha."
The roast chicken in Wen Yun’s mouth suddenly lost its flavor.
He put his things down, wiped his hands, and spoke seriously to this old friend for once.
"Then why were you hiding just now? Why don't you just come out and help me take a look and help my apprentice resolve the situation? You're a charlatan, you appear and disappear all the time. Otherwise, if something happens one day, I won't be able to find you."
He said with a sigh.
In fact, long before he accepted Wen Zhu as his disciple, he had heard from this old friend that he would have a young disciple in the future, but his fate was a bit strange. He was prone to strange phenomena and was afraid that he would suffer many disasters and die young.
But when they contacted each other one day, the old bald man said that her fate had changed.
But I can't really put my finger on what's changed. But it's definitely different from before. There's a sign of a reversal of fate.
Now he suddenly came to his clinic and started talking nonsense, which frightened Wen Yun's heart.
Then the old bald donkey, no, the old charlatan said, "Amitabha, my Buddha is merciful. The time is not right yet, and I cannot meet with the young donor. When the time is right, I will come forward to help. She still needs to overcome the remaining difficulties one by one. She needs to change her fate herself before she can break it."
Old Man Wen rolled his eyes at him. "You old baldy...old friend, isn't it all in vain for you to say this? Then why are you here? To see if my apprentice is alive or dead?"
The old monk was not annoyed at all, and smiled lightly, "I came to see an old friend."
Wen Yun didn't believe it.
There was never a time when he came specifically to see his friends. People would just visit him when they had something to do or were just passing by. Don't think he didn't know.
