Chapter 96: Sister Chen Xueru



Jia Dongsheng noticed the old lady's distrust, but he didn't care.

He came here today entirely for Li Huaide's sake, not for the old lady.

"Please sit down and let me feel your pulse."

Jia Dongsheng gestured for the old lady to sit down and extended his hand.

The old lady was still a little hesitant and sat down reluctantly. She really didn't think that such a young man like Jia Dongsheng could have such high medical skills.

With his fingers resting on the old lady's wrist, Jia Dongsheng closed his eyes and began to feel it.

The pulse was a little weak, not serious, but it was not caused by kidney yang deficiency. Most of the time, that disease only affects men. Li Huaide didn't understand and thought that the patient was weak, just like him.

However, the old lady's body was indeed a little weak, as if she had suffered from an illness before.

"Has the old lady had a severe cold in the past month?" Jia Dongsheng asked.

"Yes, just half a month ago, I caught a cold while sleeping at night." Zhao Huiwen answered from the side.

"That's fine."

Jia Dongsheng withdrew his hand and said, "It's just that the evil has entered the body and hasn't been completely eliminated, causing the body to be a little weak. Drink the tonic soup for three days and you'll be fine."

As he spoke, Jia Dongsheng told Zhao Huiwen the ingredients needed to make the tonic soup, such as ginseng, red dates, angelica, astragalus, wolfberry, etc., plus an old hen, and the method of cooking it.

Jia Dongsheng’s tonic soup is a combination of food and medicine. The stewed soup is very delicious and completely different from Chinese medicine soup.

"Thank you, Dongsheng."

Upon learning that the problem was not serious, Li Huaide quickly expressed his gratitude to Jia Dongsheng.

"You're welcome, Brother Li."

"Dongsheng, I don't have the herbs you mentioned here. Could you get them for me and send them over?"

Zhao Huiwen was so confused by the various Chinese medicines Jia Dongsheng talked about that he couldn't remember them at all.

"Forehead."

Jia Dongsheng smiled bitterly in his heart. What's the big deal? He remained calm on the surface: "No problem, I'll go to the pharmacy and help the old lady get some medicine."

"Brother Li, I'll go to the pharmacy to get the medicine first and bring it to you this afternoon."

"Hey, why bother with so much trouble?"

Li Huaide waved his hand: "Get the medicine ready and bring it to the factory when you go to work tomorrow. I'll get it from you then."

"That's okay too."

Jia Dongsheng nodded: "Brother Li, sister-in-law, then I will leave first."

"No, it's almost noon. Eat first before leaving." Zhao Huiwen tried to keep him.

"No, I have something to do later. I have to go and do my work. I'll come back next time to taste my sister-in-law's cooking."

After Jia Dongsheng politely declined, he said goodbye with a smile and left.

Riding his bike, Jia Dongsheng headed directly to Qianmen Street.

The old Chinese doctor is in the fifth courtyard. In addition to the commonly used herbs for making pills, there are also precious medicinal materials. Ordinary medicinal materials are all kept in the pharmacy.

Qianmen Street was not too far away, and Jia Dongsheng drove all the way there in just half an hour.

Unity Hall.

This is the name of the pharmacy.

Taking out the key, opening the lock, Jia Dongsheng pushed the door open and walked in.

There wasn't much dust in the pharmacy. Jia Dongsheng hadn't been there for only two months, so there wasn't much dust.

The pharmacy is a two-story building. The first floor is about 150 square meters, with tables, chairs, and a large counter. Behind the counter are small drawers, each labeled with the name of a Chinese medicine.

On the far left, there is a staircase leading to the second floor.

The second floor is not a place to rest, but a storage room built by an old Chinese doctor for storing medicinal materials.

With a few steps, Jia Dongsheng went upstairs. The upstairs and downstairs were built as one, covering an area of more than 100 square meters, and were divided into six storage rooms.

With the space capabilities of the B&B, Jia Dongsheng didn't even need to open the door. He could just use the capabilities of the B&B space to store all the Chinese medicines in the six storage rooms into the space.

After putting away all the herbs, Jia Dongsheng went downstairs again, locked the door, and was about to leave.

"Xiaodong?"

This name sounds so familiar, not Jia Dongsheng’s familiarity, but the familiarity in the original owner’s memory.

Turning around, she saw a young woman in her twenties, wearing a floral top, with long wavy hair, red lips, big eyes, and fair skin, looking at her excitedly.

"this..."

When he saw this person, Jia Dongsheng's memory churned, and the next moment, he knew who this person was.

Chen Xueru.

Opposite Heyi Hall is the owner of Chen's Silk Shop, who is also the godsister of the original owner, Jia Dongsheng.

"Sister Xueru."

Jia Dongsheng greeted him with a natural smile.

"You heartless little thing, you left for two months without even mentioning to come see me, and now that you're finally back, you want to just slip away. What's wrong? Don't you miss me, your godsister?"

Chen Xueru walked quickly to Jia Dongsheng, stretched out her slender fingers, and tapped Jia Dongsheng's forehead fiercely, her tone sounding extremely aggrieved.

"Sister Xueru, it's my fault. I'm sorry."

Jia Dongsheng quickly apologized because tears were welling up in Chen Xueru's eyes as she spoke.

Chen Xueru was the original owner when he returned to the old city and came to see the old Chinese doctor at Heyi Hall. In addition, they were also neighbors next door, so they got to know each other after a few visits.

Jia Dongsheng was not only handsome, but also had traveled all over the country with the old Chinese doctor over the years. He knew a lot and was a good talker. In addition, Chen Xueru was also a very versatile person. Their relationship became better and better, and they finally became sworn relatives.

However, Jia Dongsheng traveled through time and sorted out his memories, but this godsister was the original owner's after all, so Jia Dongsheng was still a little uncomfortable with it.

Especially the jokes about the godsister and godsbrother in later generations were so exaggerated that for a moment he really couldn't bear to look at this godsister, so after sorting out his memories, he forgot about this godsister.

Who knew that I would be blocked by Chen Xueru here today. There is no way. Since we have met, I can't pretend not to know each other, right?

"Come on, Xiaodong, stay at my place for a while. Where have you been these days? You've been making me worried for a while."

Chen Xueru, who is always in a hurry to do anything, took Jia Dongsheng and walked towards her own shop.

There was no choice but Jia Dongsheng followed.

Chen's Silk Shop is very famous on Qianmen Street. In addition to the high quality of the silk, it is also inseparable from Chen Xueru's versatile and diplomatic personality.

There were a lot of people in the store, but there was a clerk watching, so Chen Xueru directly pulled Jia Dongsheng into the back hall.

The back hall is where Chen Xueru rests. The decoration is very gorgeous for that era.

There is a wine cabinet, a sofa, and even a piano. At this moment, there is a little boy lying on the sofa and sleeping.

Jia Dongsheng knew that the child was Chen Xueru's son, named Hou Kui.

It is the name of a tea, but it is one of the top ten famous teas after the founding of the People's Republic of China. I don't know what Chen Xueru was thinking at the time. Is it because she likes to drink Houkui that she named her son Houkui? Isn't it a bit hasty?
