Zeng Wenjuan was stunned for a moment, then she smiled and said, "Okay, next time we go to the county town, Mom will buy Goudan a special pencil and a brand new notebook, where you can write down what you want to do or keep a diary."
"Mom, is it true?" Goudan asked happily. Zeng Wenjuan nodded: "When have you ever seen mom lie to you? Of course it's true." Goudan laughed happily.
Zeng Wenjuan took Goudan's hand again: "Let's go! Let's go home! It's time for dinner, are you hungry, Goudan?"
"Not hungry, I ate a piece of cake." Goudan said while touching his stomach. When he came back from work, Zeng Wenjuan gave him a piece of old-fashioned cake because she was afraid that Goudan might be hungry. Goudan looked up at Zeng Wenjuan and asked, "Mom, are you hungry?"
"Mom isn't hungry either." Zeng Wenjuan started cooking when she got home. There was some leftover chicken from last night, so she heated it up and cooked it with rice.
A few days passed like this, and on the day of rest, Zeng Wenjuan prepared to go to the county town. Last time, she didn't have the money to take the ox cart, so this time she planned to walk to the town and take the bus. This way, she would not be stared at by others.
"Mom, aren't we riding in the village chief's ox cart today?" Goudan was a little tired after walking for a while, and asked breathlessly.
Zeng Wenjuan stopped and asked with a smile: "Are you tired? We are almost there. How about I carry you."
Goudan looked at the backpack on Zeng Wenjuan's back, shook his head and said obediently, "No, I can walk by myself. Mom is very tired, I don't want her to suffer so much."
Zeng Wenjuan touched Goudan's head and said lovingly, "Okay, my Goudan is really considerate. When we get to the county town, mom will buy you some delicious food, pens and notebooks."
"Okay." Goudan smiled, and his mood became much better. He walked more easily, running and jumping on the road.
When we arrived in the town, we saw the shuttle bus. It was an old bus that was transferred to the county town because the city had a new one. It had two trips a day, and the last trip back from the county town was at 5:30 in the afternoon.
Zeng Wenjuan paid 20 cents for the bus ticket. Goudan was still small, so she could hold him in her arms for free. When everyone was gathered, the bus drove all the way to the county town. Many people got on the bus halfway. If the window hadn't been opened, Zeng Wenjuan would have vomited. Goudan didn't change much. Maybe the body of a child is different from that of an adult!
It was more than half an hour later when they arrived at the county town. After getting off the car, Zeng Wenjuan held onto a big tree and vomited violently, vomiting out all the food she had eaten in the morning.
It was the first time that Goudan had seen such a thing, and he asked worriedly, "Mom, are you okay?" He was busy spinning around on the ground, but there was nothing he could do.
Zeng Wenjuan took a long time to calm down before she wiped her mouth and said weakly to Goudan, "Mom is fine. Let's go! Let's go to the Chinese medicine store to see a doctor." Goudan was relieved to see that Zeng Wenjuan was fine.
Came to Baishanxiang.
Chen Yitang was still lying in the old position, but there was a man about the same age as Chen Yitang sitting behind the counter. Zeng Wenjuan guessed that this was probably Lin Baixiang, the boss of Bai Shanxiang.
"Comrade, what do you need?" Lin Baixiang stood up and looked at Zeng Wenjuan and asked. Zeng Wenjuan smiled and took off the backpack: "I dug some medicinal herbs, and I heard that you collect them here. I brought them over to show you."
"Oh! Is that so! Then let me check. If they are really good, I will definitely buy them all." When Lin Baixiang heard that someone came to sell supplies, he walked out from the counter with a smile.
Zeng Wenjuan took out some herbs and handed them to Lin Baixiang: "Take a look at these. I prepared them step by step according to the book. There shouldn't be any mistakes."
Lin Baixiang examined it carefully, and then looked through some of the herbs in the basket, then said with a smile: "Comrade, have you ever learned how to make medicine? This preparation technique is really good."
Zeng Wenjuan was a little surprised by the compliment, but she still said truthfully: "No, last time I came here, Dr. Chen gave me a book of medicinal materials. There were pictures of medicinal materials and methods of how to prepare them. I made it according to the method above."
When Lin Baixiang heard Zeng Wenjuan's Tiger Hill, he was a little surprised, but he quickly recovered his composure. He smiled and said, "You are quite smart, and you are a good candidate for studying medicine. If it weren't for the wrong timing, I would have wanted to take you in as my apprentice."
But thinking about the current situation, it would be better not to harm the girl, so he began to check the herbs. There were half a pound of Gastrodia elata, one pound of Angelica sinensis, five pounds of Rehmannia glutinosa, ten pounds of Astragalus membranaceus, and eight pounds of Poria cocos.
"Gastrodia elata is 100 yuan per catty, Angelica sinensis is 10 yuan per catty, Rehmannia glutinosa is 5 yuan per catty, Astragalus membranaceus is 3 yuan per catty, and Poria cocos is 2 yuan per catty. The total is 131 yuan. Do you want to pay for all of them?" Lin Baixiang said with a smile. These are all good things! It is difficult to get them in the countryside at ordinary times.
"Give me 30 yuan in tickets if possible, and give me cash for the rest! Otherwise, you won't be able to spend the money." Zeng Wenjuan said to Lin Baixiang after thinking about what she wanted to buy.
Lin Baixiang walked to the counter with a smile and opened a receipt. He counted out ten more Great Unity coupons and a bunch of bills, including food coupons, cloth coupons, meat coupons, industrial coupons, bicycle coupons, and a bunch of coupons that Lin Baixiang didn't need but Zeng Wenjuan needed.
After selling the herbs, Zeng Wenjuan brought Goudan to Chen Yitang and said, "Godly doctor, can you check my son's pulse? I have found the Ganoderma lucidum now. You must help me cure my son! I am willing to pay any price."
Seeing that Chen Yitang was unmoved, Lin Baixiang smiled gently: "That old guy recognized the wrong daughter and is feeling very upset now! Bring the child here! My art is no worse than his."
Zeng Wenjuan looked at Chen Yitang and was about to take Goudan to Lin Baixiang when she saw Chen Yitang suddenly sit up and say, "This patient is mine. How is your medical skill better than mine? Didn't I hear people call me a miracle doctor? Or do I not know you?"
Lin Baixiang didn't bother with Chen Yitang. When he was studying medicine, he was the favorite of several senior brothers. In addition, his daughter was lost a few years ago. His temper became worse, but he knew the pain in Chen Yitang's heart. The child was lost because of him. He had been blaming himself all these years and it was not good.
Chen Yitang checked Goudan and nodded, saying, "The child is recovering slowly. I'm writing a prescription for you, and I've got your Ganoderma lucidum! Take it out and I'll add it to the medicine for you."
The herbs were quickly collected. Zeng Wenjuan was about to leave with Goudan when Chen Yitang stopped her and said, "Hey! Wait, this child is yours, right?"
Zeng Wenjuan frowned. If Chen Yitang hadn't just treated her son, she would have scolded him right now: "Of course! This child looks exactly like me. How can he not be my child?"
