Chapter 154: Weird Old Man



Chapter 154: Weird Old Man

While waiting, Xie Nancheng fell asleep.

When he woke up in the middle of the night and went to the bathroom, he checked his phone and saw nothing.

The woman didn't reply.

"Damn it, you're pretending with me, right?"

"If you have the guts, just don't come back for the rest of your life. Damn, you're really giving me face."

The big guy cursed and complained with emotion, but he only dared to speak to himself.

The next morning

"I have an exam today." Mu Wanjun said while eating breakfast.

"Yeah, I know."

"You're not going?"

"No."

Tu Ran thought about it and decided that he didn't plan to work in a hospital, so it didn't matter whether he had a diploma or not.

There have been a lot of things happening recently, and she really doesn't have the heart to think about it.

And there is no point in taking the exam.

If I show my ability and try to get first place, it will cause a stir.

It's also unfair to other students.

So I didn't plan to go at all.

"Have you told the instructor?"

"I'll call the instructor later."

"You look unhappy. Is there anything I can help you with?" Mu Wanjun asked her.

"Nothing, I just plan to go out and look for a job today."

"Well, that's good. Find something to do so I don't have to think too much."

Mu Wanjun actually doesn't like being disturbed, but Tu Ran is different.

She is very sensible and has a good sense of boundaries.

When living in Mu Wanjun's house, he took the initiative to clean, buy groceries and cook.

Mu Wanjun really felt comfortable being taken care of. She liked friends like this.

After the two of them had breakfast, Mu Wanjun went to school.

Tu Rize took the subway for two stops and went to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Street.

The Traditional Chinese Medicine Street also has another famous name - Ping'an Road Pedestrian Street.

This street is full of various Chinese medicine clinics and medicine stores.

It was prepared by the Provincial Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine that year and also received strong support from the city.

Because I won't be working for long during the winter vacation, no one will want me if I go to the hospital.

So I plan to find some private clinics, Chinese medicine clinics, or pharmacies.

Tu Ran went from house to house for the whole morning but still couldn't find a suitable one.

It’s not because they are not hiring, but because those Chinese medicine clinics are not very good.

How to say it?

You can tell at a glance that it is more commercial.

They make money for the sake of making money, and the prescriptions they prescribe to patients are all the same.

There are even more outrageous Chinese medicine clinics that offer Chinese medicine for weight loss and whitening.

Tu Ran looked down on those who used the name of medical beauty to make Chinese medicine.

At noon, she had a bowl of beef noodles nearby.

I continued looking in the afternoon and visited all the shops on the street.

She looked around and coincidentally ran into an acquaintance in a pharmacy.

"Excuse me, are you hiring?" Tu Ran asked as he entered.

"Tu Ran?" The young girl was stunned.

"Dong Xue?"

"Oh my god, it's really you."

When Dong Xue saw Tu Ran, she trotted over as if she had seen her idol.

She was wearing a white coat and was obviously a staff member here.

"Don't you have an exam today?" Tu Ran wondered.

"I finished my exams this morning and came back at noon. By the way, I work part-time here. The boss lady takes good care of me. I help out here during the winter and summer vacations. If I don't go home, I can help support the family."

Tu Ran nodded to show that he understood.

I also know that Dong Xue's family background is indeed not good, but she works really hard.

"Tu Ran, are you looking for a job too?"

Because Tu Ran had just come in and asked if they were hiring, Dong Xue guessed that she had the same intention.

"Well, I also want to do a part-time job."

"The winter vacation is too long. I can't stay at home." She said generously.

"But we are indeed not short of people here."

"Ah, that's okay. I'll go ask other families then."

"Dr. Sun across the street seems to be hiring." The proprietress came out of the warehouse at some point and interrupted the two girls' conversation.

"Ah? Doctor Sun's family? I'm afraid his family is not suitable. Doctor Sun has a strange temper. Many intern college students can't stay there for long because they are scolded away." Dong Xue said.

"Doctor Sun?" Tu Ran was curious.

"Well, Doctor Sun is a well-known Chinese medicine doctor here, but he has a bad temper and often scolds people. And his family is always short of assistants. I think it's better to forget about it."

"Is it far?" Tu Ran asked.

"It's not far, just diagonally opposite our store. See that sign? It says - Sun's Medical Clinic." Dong Xue pulled Tu Ran to stand at the door and pointed across.

"I see. I'll go ask."

Tu Ran thought that since he was already here, he might as well ask.

I've been out for a day and I really don't have the energy to go any further.

If this one doesn't work out, I'll go back and rest first.

"Okay, if you need any help, remember to come to me."

"Come on, let's add WeChat."

"If you're not in a hurry to go home later, I'd like to treat you to dinner."

"Of course, it's not anything great, I just know there's a spicy hot pot restaurant nearby." Dong Xue is a marginalized person in the class. Because of her poor family background, she lacks self-confidence and rarely interacts with others.

Moreover, when Wang Dongxu bullied them, other students did not dare to intervene for fear of being implicated.

Even some girls in her dormitory excluded her and complained about her poverty behind her back.

Therefore, Mu Wanjun and Tu Ran, two beautiful women, extended a helping hand to Dong Xue at that time.

For the first time, this girl's world became brighter.

She was inevitably enthusiastic.

Tu Ran didn't say anything, took out his phone and added Dong Xue on WeChat.

Then he walked towards the Sun Clinic opposite.

"Excuse me, are you hiring here?"

Tu Ran knocked on the door, then opened it and went in.

A skinny, dark-skinned old man stood up from his chair.

In his hand was a cigarette he had rolled himself.

"Who wants to come?"

"Me." Tu Ran said.

"You? You can't." The old man refused directly.

"Why?" Tu Ran was shocked. He was rejected just after taking a look at her. How could this be possible?

"Those with delicate skin and tender flesh cannot endure hardships. My family is very tired."

"Doctor Sun, I can endure hardship. Don't judge a person by his appearance, you know?"

"You female college students are all here for the novelty of it, or to make jokes to become famous. You won't last long and it's a waste of time. Go away, go away."

"Master Sun, you haven't even asked me to work, how do you know I can't do it?"

"Do you dare to let me try it for a day? I can do it for free, without any wages." Tu Ran said.

"You don't need it for free, go away, go away quickly." The old man was extremely impatient and didn't even look at Tu Ran seriously.

The more the old man acted like this, the more Tu Ran wanted to stay.

It's not for any other reason, it's just because the air in this clinic is filled with the extremely strong scent of Chinese herbal medicine.

Today, she visited no less than twenty houses.

Every household has the smell of Chinese medicine, but each medicine is different.

She has been collecting herbs in the mountains with her grandfather since she was a child. She can tell which herbs are of top quality just by smelling them.

"Doctor Sun, I'm afraid you don't sell fake medicine."

"Are you afraid I'll find out and report you?"

"You little bitch, what did you say? I'm selling fake medicine?" This really hurt the old man's tail.

The old man was so angry that he stopped smoking and walked straight towards Tu Ran.

"Girl, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. You have to be responsible for what you say."

"I have all the legal documents here, and they have all been strictly tested."

"I'm Old Sun. I started learning medicine from my father when I was eight years old. My father, my grandfather, my great-grandfather, and my entire family have been practicing Chinese medicine for generations. I'm sixty-five this year, and we've inherited this tradition for decades. How dare you accuse me of selling fake medicine?"

"If not, you can keep me."

"You don't dare to keep me, which means you have something to hide." Tu Ran used the simplest method of provoking.
