The effect of Jinqiangfu is very good.
Based on the feedback from the last patrol team, Mu Huaixi further adjusted the recipe and sent some to Ying Mingcheng.
Originally, she was planning to hand over the recipe for the Golden Spear Compress to the Shengjing Military Region, but her grandfather made the decision and handed the matter over to Hua Yingbiao.
Hua Yingbiao had both connections and money, so he quickly set up a factory, purchased large quantities of medicinal materials and dressings, and started production soon.
She wasn't looking to make money, but Hua Yingbiao insisted on giving her 20% of the profits. Actually, she didn't make much from a single Golden Gun Compress. This medicine was primarily supplied to military areas, and they only charged her the cost and labor costs. Five hundred copies would give her about one dollar.
Mu Huaixi didn't care. She gained something else this time. She won the favor of the political commissar of the Shengjing Military Region, Huo Er and others. She also got a lot of news from the military region from Huo Er and Hua Yingbiao.
When the semester was almost over, she received a letter from the Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine, notifying her that her article would be published in the next month's issue. Attached to the letter was a remittance slip for the manuscript fee of 26.39 yuan.
"Twenty-six yuan and thirty-nine cents!" Mu Huaixi took the remittance slip home and showed it off to his grandparents, receiving countless compliments.
It's not that she hadn't made money before, but she never imagined that she would one day make money with her writing. In her previous understanding, only great writers had the ability to make money in this way.
She never thought that one day she would be able to make money from medical records.
Grandma took the remittance slip, read it over and over again, and suggested, "How about not withdrawing the money? I'll buy a frame for the photo tomorrow."
"No, I still have to buy things for you!" Mu Huaixi had already thought about it. The Xia family was about to arrive. She could go to Shengjing Street to buy a hat for grandma, a bottle of good wine for grandpa, a piece of clothing for the two aunts, and buy something for Xiao Huihui...
Grandma listened to her careful planning and laughed so hard that she couldn't straighten her waist. "My dear, after your careful calculation, these twenty-six yuan can buy more than two thousand yuan."
Mu Huaixi also laughed. She certainly didn't intend to use twenty or so dollars to get rid of her entire family. She just wanted to find an excuse to celebrate.
"It's time to celebrate," Grandpa said happily, waving his hands. "Let's go to the restaurant today!"
The time-honored shops on Shengjing Street offer good quality and low prices. The sweet and sour pork is crispy, but you need to be careful when eating it, otherwise the old-fashioned sweet vinegar sauce will make you feel sour.
The big elbow was stewed until it was soft and rotten. Grandma also tore off a piece of tender meat for Xiao Huihui. He held the meat strip reverently and gnawed it attentively with his few tiny teeth.
After eating and drinking, the family went shopping happily. Mu Huaixi bought all the gifts he had planned to buy, but when he gave them to his family in the evening, he received gifts in return from them.
"When did you buy it without telling me?" Mu Huaixi was very surprised.
Grandma handed her a pair of aviator sunglasses, also known as frog-eye glasses, the most popular pair in Shengjing these days. Walking down the street, every trendy person on earth would have them. Mu Huaixi had even seen someone wearing them at school. With a narrow-sleeved shirt, wide-leg pants, and a large horn on their shoulder, they looked like the coolest kid in the school.
"Whatever others have, our Xiaoxi must have too. I have already reserved it for you. It just happened to coincide with the happy event of your first publication of an article. It can be considered a blessing for these sunglasses." Grandma dotes on her the most and will praise her in different ways no matter big or small things happen.
Grandpa gave her a Huhao brush and said, "Xiao Xi, I know you want to sort out your grandfather's medical records, but don't be too anxious. Take your time. We are not pursuing speed, but stability."
Mu Huaixi agreed with a smile. She had many wishes and many things she wanted to do. This life was much better than the previous one. She would not be in a hurry and would realize them one by one, moving forward step by step.
The final exams in medical school were extremely tiring. Even Mu Huaixi, who had studied hard, was still dizzy from the torture of classical medical texts and pharmacy.
Fortunately, she did not miss any classes except the one to Heihe, and she attended classes seriously, so she did not need to cram before the exam.
Mu Huaixi finished her last exam and slowly pushed her bicycle home. She also bought a big watermelon on the roadside.
She walked all the way to a less crowded street before she dared to get on the bike. She rode safely and nervously to her doorstep and saw her grandfather standing at the door, watching the hired workers busy at work.
"Grandpa, what are you doing?" Mu Huaixi stepped on the brake, jumped out of the car, and looked curiously at the sunshade added to the gatehouse next to the gate.
The original palace had a main gate, and there was a corner gate on the side for servants to come and go. Inside the corner gate was the gatehouse's resting place. Now it is equipped with tables, chairs, and medicine cabinets, and has been converted into a clinic.
"Didn't you say you wanted to come and see me during the summer vacation? I've discussed it with your grandmother, and instead of looking for a place outside, why not just stay at home? When the weather is nice and cool, we can set up a table under the eaves and see patients outside."
Mu Huaixi already had a rural doctor's certificate, so she was qualified to practice medicine. The palace where they lived was next to a residential area, with nearly ten alleys on all sides and nearly ten thousand people living there.
"Okay," Mu Huaixi felt warm in her heart, "Then let's do a free clinic for ten days. I'll just prescribe medicine but not dispense it."
After she came to Shengjing, she had been busy studying, taking care of her children and making medicine. She had never properly greeted her neighbors. If she set up a stall rashly, it would definitely be a cold reception.
"Okay," her grandfather also supported her and specially wrote a signboard for her: "Xinglin Miaoshou".
Mu Huaixi still wanted to be humble, but she also knew that to be a doctor, she had to have a reputation and confidence, otherwise patients would not let her see them.
The sign was put up, but no one came on the first day.
Mu Huaixi sat leisurely under the eaves. Even the dog passing by in late autumn did not approach her. She was not in a hurry. She either took Xiao Huihui out for a walk or read a book by herself. In the evening, she went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought ten kilograms of watermelons, which she piled up in the gatehouse.
The next day, she was holding Xiao Huihui and cutting melons on the roadside. When she saw wives and children passing by, she invited them to come over and have a piece. Gradually, more and more people came.
That evening, about ten people gathered here to eat melons and chat. Some people brought melon seeds and fried dough sticks, and they gathered together to talk about family matters.
Everything in the alley was interesting. Mu Huaixi hadn't enjoyed listening to gossip so much in a long time. For several days in a row, her dreams were like a TV series, with Xiao Ming and Xiao Hong taking turns to appear, and she imagined many big dramas.
On the fifth day, someone finally asked her, "Who is this amazing doctor? The sign has been hanging there for days, but no one is around?"
Before Mu Huaixi could reply, Auntie Chu, who was knitting a sweater next to her, spoke up quickly, "The expert in medicine is our Ying family's granddaughter-in-law. Don't underestimate her age. She was the only TCM practitioner in the health center in the south, with a regular position! She even made meritorious contributions and was sent to Shengjing Medical College for further studies. If she hadn't graduated yet, she would have been working at Tong Ren Tang long ago!"
Mu Huaixi tried to scam a "time-honored brand" and the effect was unexpectedly good. People around her started asking questions. Some asked about the free clinic, some asked where she worked before, and some asked if she could see a pediatrician...
