"Sister Zhao, this is the medicine I gave the old lady last time. There are 40 pills left. When the old lady gets sick in the future, she can take 7 or 8 pills to get relief. When the symptoms are severe, she can take more pills. Last time I gave the old lady 10 pills."
Zhao Yazhi took the medicine bottle, gratitude evident on her face.
"Yun Mo, thank you so much. In fact, Director Liu had contacted my cousin and the others before, wanting to know what medicine you gave my grandma that day. Director Liu said that my grandma's body recovered faster than expected, and he thought it was the effect of this medicine."
Yun Mo thought for a moment and explained, "This medicine is called Jiuxin Pills. I got it from a folk barefoot Chinese medicine practitioner. He said that the main ingredients of this medicine are Chuanxiong and artificial borneol. As for more, he did not reveal."
Fortunately, she had someone prepare the medicine herself, and there was no mark on the bottle, so she was not afraid of being traced.
Zhao Yazhi carefully put the medicine into his pocket, then held Yun Mo's hand, "Yun Mo, I really don't know how to thank you. Cats have nine lives, and with this bottle of heart-saving pills, my grandma will have a few more lives."
"Sister Zhao, this is the blessing that the old lady has cultivated herself. I am just a middleman."
Although what Zhao Yazhi said was not an exaggeration at all, Yun Mo still responded modestly.
After seeing Yun Mo and Ling Chuan off, Zhao Yazhi couldn't contain his excitement and ran back to the ward.
"Grandma! Grandma!"
Old Mrs. Zhao dozed off against the head of the bed with her eyes half closed, and was frightened by her granddaughter's loud shouting.
Nanny Xiao Zhu hurriedly said, "Oh, my dear, please keep your voice down. You are scaring the old lady."
Zhao Yazhi didn't care about what the nanny said and excitedly took the small medicine bottle in her hand to Old Mrs. Zhao.
"Grandma, look!"
Mrs. Zhao looked confused. "What is this?"
"It's the medicine that saved you last time! Yun Mo gave it to me. She said there are 40 pills left in the bottle, enough for you to take 4 or 5 times."
Hearing this, Old Mrs. Zhao woke up from her doze, her face full of joy.
"This, this is too expensive. I have to pay for the medicine..."
"What are you so happy about?"
Zhao Xuehai entered the ward at some point and couldn't help but make fun of the grandparents and grandchildren as they were so happy as if they had found a treasure.
"Dad, you came just in time..."
After hearing the whole story, Zhao Xuehai was also surprised and excited.
As she grew older, her coronary heart disease became more and more serious. The medicines prescribed by the hospital were no longer effective, so he had to ask someone to bring imported medicines from abroad every time.
This time my mother fell ill halfway through the journey because she had run out of imported medicine and the new medicine had not yet been sent back to the country.
Zhao Xuehai took two samples from the glass medicine bottle and sent them to Ms. Zhang, a famous expert in Chinese medicine preparations who lived in Beijing. He also attached a handwritten letter, which explained the origin and efficacy of the medicine and urged the other party to conduct in-depth research.
Yun Mo didn't know about Zhao Xuehai's actions. Of course, even if she knew, she wouldn't care.
When she planned to deliver the medicine to Old Mrs. Zhao, she had imagined this outcome.
Even without her, the drug would have come out. The most her actions could do was to push the drug to market earlier.
After leaving the hospital, Yun Mo did not go back to the match factory directly. Instead, she went to the labor market and found ten temporary workers to help clean the match factory.
I have to say, spending money makes things easier.
In just one afternoon, ten temporary workers cleaned the match factory from top to bottom.
Even Huang Zhiqiu lamented that he should have hired workers to do the work earlier so as not to waste so much time.
The next day, Yun Mo found two electricians and a plumber to check the match factory's electrical circuits and water pipes to eliminate all possible hidden dangers.

Although Village Chief Lu went to the Huang family in person to apologize and gave them generous gifts, he was still uneasy, as if there was a knife hanging over his head that could fall at any time.
Just as Village Chief Lu was sighing in his office, the finance manager came over.
"Village Chief Lu, two people came here with a bill to settle the bill. They said it was the river sand, cement, asbestos tiles, and glass that the Huang family had ordered."
Village Chief Lu frowned so hard that he could kill a mosquito. "Hasn't the Huang family already paid for the building materials?"
"The previous one was married, but the Huang family got engaged again later."
After hearing this, Village Chief Lu was choked and speechless for a long time.
This is called shooting oneself in the foot.
Village Chief Lu waved his hand weakly at the finance department and said, "Just pay them."
The finances are very difficult, "but we don't have enough money."
Mayor Lu couldn't believe it. "How can it not be enough? How much can that little building material cost?"
"Village Chief Lu, you withdrew 200 yesterday, so there is only 212.5 yuan left in your account."
"Isn't 200 enough?"
"Not enough. According to the bill, the total is 368 yuan."
Village Chief Lu's eyes almost popped out of his head. "Why is it so expensive? Is the river sand made of gold?"
"The main reason is that glass is expensive. The Huang family ordered 100 pieces of glass, and the unit price of a piece of glass is 2 yuan, which is 200 yuan."
“…”
Mayor Lu was so angry that he grabbed his hair and said, "Tell them to come back next year!"
"oh."

After the electricians and plumbers checked the match factory inside and out, Yun Mo went to buy paint, cement and river sand. She planned to paint the doors and windows and the tables and chairs in the office, and also smooth out the potholes on the ground to avoid tripping when walking.
In the afternoon, everyone was busy painting and mopping the floor when Huang Yu came.
Huang Yu has to work during the day and work overtime at night, so he basically doesn't get off work until 9 o'clock. However, after get off work every day, Huang Yu will go to the guesthouse to sit and chat with everyone.
It’s a bit strange to come here at this time today.
"Xiaoyu, why are you here? Aren't you going to work?"
"I quit my job."
Huang Kailin and Huang Zhiqiu were both surprised when they heard this. However, seeing that Huang Yu's face and mood were not very good, they did not ask any more questions.
"Just quit. Your factory is tiring and the pay is low. You can work in a bamboo weaving factory. After all, it's your family's business."
Huang Kailin put the paintbrush in Huang Yu's hand and said, "You do it for a while. I'll go over there and take a rest."
Huang Yu took the paint brush and started working.
At around 4 o'clock, Yun Mo brought out a large bowl of hot dumplings from the cafeteria.
"Come on, come on, eat dumplings."
Smelling the fragrance, everyone stopped what they were doing.
"These dumplings are really good. The filling is tender and juicy, and the dumplings are chewy and elastic. They are better than what I had in the restaurant last night."
Hearing Huang Kailin's praise, Yun Mo smiled and said, "Grandpa, if you like it, eat more."
"Hey, where is Xiaoling?" Huang Zhiqiu noticed that his son-in-law was not there.
"He was frying pancakes inside, and there was a little flour left."
Huang Zhiqiu handed a bowl of dumplings to Yun Mo, "Then you take it to Xiao Ling, so that he won't be busy and still not get to eat."
Yun Mo carried the dumplings to the canteen kitchen, "My mom asked me to bring it to you."
"Wife, put it aside for now. I'll fry the dumplings and eat them."
Looking at the man's face that was roasted red by the fire, Yun Mo picked up the chopsticks, picked up a dumpling, blew on it to heat it, and then fed it to his mouth.
