"You have very high standards, girl. The supply and marketing cooperatives in the county can't satisfy you. What do you want to buy?" Old man Zhao laughed.
"You don't necessarily have to buy anything, you just want to go and take a look, and buy something if you find something suitable." Su Miaomiao said.
"To go to the city, we have to go to the county first, and then take a long-distance bus to the city. It will take two days to go there and back. It's not worth the trouble just to visit the supply and marketing cooperative." Old man Zhao didn't take Su Miaomiao's words to heart. He just thought that the little girl had just come to this small mountain village from a big city like Beijing and was not used to it.
"That's right." Su Miaomiao nodded.
The two did not talk about this matter anymore and only talked about medicinal herbs.
It was already noon and no patients came. Old Man Zhao had processed most of the medicinal materials and looked at Su Miaomiao.
"Go eat first and come back in the afternoon."
"Tuo." Su Miaomiao got up and left.
As soon as I got home, I saw Tang Chunlan carrying dishes and preparing to enter the house.
"Miaomiao, you just got in. Dinner is about to start. Hurry and wash your hands." Tang Chunlan called.
"Tang." Su Miaomiao washed her hands and went into the house.
Tang Chunlan also imitated what Su Miaomiao did yesterday. She put a piece of cloth in the middle of the room and put the fried dishes on it.
Tang Chunlan’s dish was very simple, just a big plate of stewed cabbage without even a bit of minced meat.
Huo Xinyuan picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and frowned as soon as it entered his mouth.
"What's wrong? Is it so unpalatable?" Tang Chunlan looked at him.
Huo Xinyuan swallowed it with great effort and forced a smile: "It's not that bad, just a little worse than my sister's."
"Really? I tried my best." Tang Chunlan took a bite and almost spit it out.
It was difficult for him to swallow it, so he took another big gulp of water.
"Mom, it seems that you are not as talented as my sister in cooking." Huo Xinyuan joked.
"I've never been in the kitchen before. If I had known this would happen, I should have asked Auntie to teach me." Tang Chunlan's face was full of apologies.
Su Miaomiao picked up a piece and put it in her mouth, swallowed it expressionlessly, and picked up another piece with her chopsticks.
"Miaomiao, you don't have to flatter your mother like this." Tang Chunlan was afraid that Su Miaomiao would get sick from eating so much, so she quickly stopped her.
"I think it's okay, just with a little less oil and a little more salt. It can be eaten with rice." After Su Miaomiao finished speaking, she took another big bite to make her words more credible.
"Miao Miao..." Tang Chunlan's eyes were filled with emotion.
Seeing Su Miaomiao like this, the other members of the Huo family also picked up their bowls and started eating.
It was just cabbage stewed in plain water with little oil or water, and it tasted less and less good in everyone's mouth.
But no one wasted food, and everyone ate it all.
After all, if you don’t eat at noon, you won’t have the energy to work in the afternoon.
Huo Min learned to wash dishes, and everyone went into the house to take a nap.
Everyone got up and went out only when the whistle sounded for work.
Su Miaomiao still went to Old Man Zhao's house.
Two patients came in the afternoon, one had a fever and the other had diarrhea.
Su Miaomiao prescribed a dose of medicine for each of them and asked them to come and get it tomorrow.
It’s not that she was unwilling to prescribe more at one time, but she simply couldn’t get the medicine.
With Su Miaomiao in the pharmacy, Old Man Zhao had a lot more free time. He processed all the herbs that Su Miaomiao had picked in the morning.
Su Miaomiao thought she could spend her first day at work leisurely, but she never expected that when it was almost time to get off work, a man in his early 30s hurriedly ran into the pharmacy.
"Doctor Su? Who is Doctor Su?" the man shouted as he came in.
"Are you looking for me?" Su Miaomiao came out of the house.
