In the car, Song Guoxian had been secretly measuring Ye Xiaoxiao.
First of all, I accepted this new apprentice. Although he is young, he looks simple.
He drove all the way here, and people in this town would look at him with envy when they saw a car, but this girl leaned casually on the seat since she got on the car, without any curiosity at all.
Song Guoxian had no idea that in Ye Xiaoxiao's opinion, this sedan had a rustic appearance and very comfortable seats, and could be considered an antique car.
It takes at least two days to drive from 땡川 County to the capital.
They stayed in a guest house in a passing city for one night, and then continued on their journey.
Ye Xiaoxiao leaned tiredly in the car: "Why do I feel like I'm still riding a train?"
Song Guangjing teased her, "Do you think taking the train is faster? The environment in the train is messy and there are all kinds of smells. You are even more uncomfortable."
Ye Xiaoxiao was still holding the steamed buns she bought in the morning and she took a bite listlessly.
Song Guangjing commented: "When you lived in the capital, you should have been a hardworking big sister."
Song Guangjing asked a question or two occasionally. She thought there was no need to hide what happened at the Hao family, so she told him directly.
Ye Xiaoxiao waved her hands, "Teacher, please don't label me as a big sister. How can I be called a big sister? I am a young person with ideals, morals, culture, and discipline."
Song Guangjing laughed and said, "You are very sharp-tongued."
Song Guoxian changed the driver's seat and couldn't help but smile when he heard the conversation behind him.
"What's wrong with the eldest sister? It's just that her family is better off. If it were a few years ago, she would have been criticized. Now that the situation has been relaxed, those wealthy and naughty people in the capital are acting more and more arrogantly, and no one cares."
Song Guangjing: "It's okay if we joke about it in private, but if we talk about it outside, who knows what the situation will be like."
Song Guoxian: "Yes, first."
It's boring in the car, and there are no mobile phones to play with in this era.
Ye Xiaoxiao slept in a daze, and when she opened her eyes again, the car had driven into the Second Ring Road of Beijing, and finally stopped in a courtyard with a vermilion gate.
Without saying much along the way, Song Xiaoguang moved all the luggage into the house.
After entering the yard, there is a lot of space inside, at least it is easy to enter the yard.
The innermost courtyard has been renovated into a two-story building.
"I came back and stayed for a few days during the Chinese New Year. Someone was sweeping the yard." Song Guangjing called Song Xiaoguang: "Put Xiaoxiao's luggage in Xiangyang's room on the second floor."
Song Xiaoguang nodded and went upstairs with the suitcase.
Ye Xiaoxiao looked at the clean and tidy yard and felt very envious.
Buy a house.
Must buy a house.
"Master, how much does this big yard cost?"
Song Guangjing: "Like it? Nowadays, young people are all crowded into buildings. This kind of yard is very popular."
Ye Xiaoxiao: "I love living in a big courtyard, especially one close to the Forbidden City."
This yard will be worth a lot later.
Song Guangjing: "There are many idle yards here. The ownership is clear, and there are many families living in one yard. If you want to buy one, you have to find a suitable one, preferably an empty house. We can just give you the whole yard."
Ye Xiaoxiao now has motivation to save money again.
Buying more houses and land now will help you to count money later.
Ye Xiaoxiao: "Teacher, we came to Beijing so early, what are we going to do before school starts? Is there any place to make money?"
Song Guangjing was quite satisfied. Young people are really energetic.
He looked sleepy in the car just now, but now he is full of fighting spirit again.
"Take a rest today, and I'll take you to visit our Rende Hall tomorrow."
Ye Xiaoxiao remembered the seal Song Guangjing gave her: "Master, are you saying that the plaque was not brought back?"
Song Guangjing: "There are many Rendetang pharmacies in the capital, but the surnames can distinguish the authentic ones. You should study medicine well, and sooner or later, all the authentic Rendetang in the capital will change their names."
Ye Xiaoxiao touched his nose and reminded: "Teacher, you can register the trademark."
The country promulgated the Trademark Law in 1982, but most manufacturers and brands are still not aware of it.
Song Guangjing knew this too well, so Ye Xiaoxiao gave him a popular science explanation of the importance of trademarks.
Song Guangjing was silent for a long time after hearing this. Is this the trademark they fought so hard for?
And once you register, other businesses can no longer use it and it is protected by law.
Song Guangjing called Song Guoxian and asked him to ask someone about trademark registration. He wanted to register Ren De Tang first. Those old antiques must have thought of this.
Although Song Guoxian knew what this was, he explained the matter first and went to do it immediately.
Ye Xiaoxiao saw Song Guangjing still walking around in the yard thinking, and she didn't pay any attention to him.
She went into the house first and found her room on the second floor. Song Xiaoguang had already put her luggage away.
The house was clean, but too clean. It had everything you need, but there was no sign that anyone had ever lived there.
She packed up her things and waited until noon, then found that there was an auntie cooking in the yard.
Song Guangjing said, "This is Aunt Xu. Tell Aunt Xu what you want to eat and let her cook it for you. This is your home, don't be polite."
Aunt Xu is a plump middle-aged woman. After hearing this, she looked at Ye Xiaoxiao and asked, "Excuse me, what is this girl's name?"
Ye Xiaoxiao: "Just call me by my name, Ye Xiaoxiao."
Aunt Xu smiled happily and praised, "This name is nice."
In fact, Ye Xiaoxiao spent most of her time living in the south, so she is somewhat accustomed to northern cuisine.
But his grandfather is from the north, and unfortunately his grandfather can't cook either.
No one in the Ye family, whether male or female, can cook. The sisters and brothers are very good in their professional fields, but they are novices in social activities.
Sometimes Ye Xiaoxiao would think that it was precisely because her parents were so crazy that they ended up getting divorced, because one person had to give up his career to take care of the family.
However, both her parents were strong and willing to give in, so they eventually parted ways.
Aunt Xu probably prepared a sumptuous dinner to welcome Song Guangjing back.
Ye Xiaoxiao ate one more bowl of rice than usual.
"This spicy boiled fish seems to be a Southern Sichuan dish."
Ye Xiaoxiao's lips became brighter than usual due to the spicy taste.
Aunt Xu said: "I have improved it. Of course it should be spicier."
Ye Xiaoxiao: "But it's still very spicy."
When Song Guangjing looked over, Ye Xiaoxiao immediately shut up.
This old man! He must be testing her knowledge of raising children.
Although Song Guangjing was strict, as a teacher, he had no objection. The next day after arriving in the capital, he took Ye Xiaoxiao to the pharmacy.
Like the drugstore in Songlin Town, this one has a whole floor.
Outside is an antique mahogany building. Once inside, the queuing area, consultation area, medicine area, and payment area are clearly arranged, just like a small hospital.
