When Tang Xiaorou heard what her mother said, she smiled and said, "Of course."
Seeing that the old woman came to see her instead of Mr. Yu, she knew that she had something to hide, so Tang Xiaorou took her to a consultation room in the back, "Mother, let me feel your pulse first."
"Oh, okay."
The old woman quickly stretched out her wrist, and while Tang Xiaorou felt her pulse, she hesitantly told him about her problem, "I'm too old to go to the hospital, but today I came to buy hawthorns, and found that there was a new woman like you in Xinglin Pharmacy. Plus, I feel even worse now, so I thought of looking for you. Am I... am I okay?"
"Don't worry, mother, your condition is serious."
Through her pulse and her oral description, Tang Xiaorou knew that she had leucorrhea caused by damp heat and itching. "Mother, I'll prescribe two sets of pills for you. One set should be boiled and taken once in the morning and evening every day, and the other set should be taken for washing."
As she was talking, Tang Xiaorou had already prescribed the medicine for decoction: Plantago seed, Alisma orientalis, Poria... After she finished prescribing, she specially wrote "decoction", and then she wrote another prescription for washing: Phellodendron chinense, Stemona bulbs, Cnidium monnieri... and also wrote "washing" on it.
"Mother, I'll get these two doses of medicine for you."
Seeing Tang Xiaorou being so considerate, the old lady nodded and said, "Okay, tell me after you get the medicine, or I'm afraid I won't remember it."
"good."
Tang Xiaorou smiled and nodded, then began to prepare the medicine. At the end, she put a small note inside each medicine so that her mother could tell, "Okay, the consultation plus the medicine costs a total of three dollars." When she prepared the medicine, she asked Mr. Yu for the price of the medicine. As for her consultation fee, she only charged fifty cents.
After the old woman gave the money, she picked up the medicine and left.
Old Yu looked at Tang Xiaorou with a smile and said, "Look, someone wants to see you for a medical consultation on your first day at work. Okay, I have to go and get the certificate for you right away." At the end, Old Yu asked Xiaodou to continue to help Tang Xiaorou get familiar with the pharmacy, and he went out himself.
Xiaodou knew how much Mr. Yu valued Tang Xiaorou, so he tried his best to introduce her and told her everything he knew. However, until noon, no one came to get medicine, but Qin Xueqiong and Yao Bingcheng came.
"Xiaodou, I have something to do so I have to go back first. I will come back this afternoon."
"good."
Xiaodou responded, then packed up and prepared to go home.
"Mom, Bingcheng, let's go to the bookstore first, and then go to the department store to buy a sewing machine after we buy the books."
"Okay, let's go buy some books first." Qin Xueqiong thought reading was good, so the three of them quickly arrived at the bookstore. However, after looking around, Tang Xiaorou found that there were no books here, so she only bought two exercise books.
"Xiao Rou, are you only buying these two? Do you want to buy some others?"
Tang Xiaorou whispered to her mother: "Mom, I'm fine, the other places are fine."
Seeing her daughter say this, Qin Xueqiong didn't say anything more. After passing the bookstore, she found that the two books were exactly the same.
Tang Xiaorou had already handed a book to Yao Bingcheng with a smile, "One for you, one for me, we both need to read carefully."
Yao Bingcheng was surprised when he heard this, "Sister, are you going to study with me?"
"Yes, reading more is definitely good. I didn't get into high school at first, so I have to study more while I have time now. If I have the opportunity in the future, I would like to continue going to school."
Qin Xueqiong looked at her daughter with some self-blame and said, "Xiao Rou, it's all my fault." Her daughter had always been good at studying, but Old Lady Tang felt that it didn't matter what the little girl did, as she would get married in the future no matter how well she studied. So she dropped out of school when her daughter was in the second year of junior high school and stayed at home to earn a job and do housework.
Thinking of this, Qin Xueqiong felt that she regretted it too late.
Tang Xiaorou took her mother's hand and said, "Mom, it's too late to read books now. You can learn until you die, so it's never too late."
Seeing that her daughter only blamed her and had a smiling face, Qin Xueqiong secretly vowed that she would never be weak again in the future.
"Yes, I think you should think about what skill to learn."
Hearing this, Tang Xiaorou smiled and said, "Mom, you're so good at making clothes, why don't you learn how to sew? You might be able to make money with this skill in the future."
Qin Xueqiong was indeed interested in this, but she didn't know where to learn. Those old tailors would generally teach their skills to others. At her age, others probably wouldn't want her to be an apprentice. "Although I can make clothes, they are only comfortable and good-looking, and others will definitely like them. Only you dislike the clothes I make."
"Mom, you did a great job this time. The embroidery on Xiaoliang and Xiaoyan's clothes looks great."
Speaking of this, Qin Xueqiong said: "That's the pattern the old lady drew for me, of course I will embroider it."
"Mom, next time I'll design two pieces of clothing and see if you can make them."
"OK."
Tang Xiaorou smiled when she saw her mother's eyes sparkling. She suggested going to the scrap yard, "Let's go there and see if there are any old books we can buy. If there are any, that would be great."
Qin Xueqiong and Yao Bingcheng naturally had no objection. After the three of them went to the scrap yard, they went directly to the old books and waste paper to look for them. "Mom, Bingcheng, can you guys look for "Mathematics" and "Self-study Series of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry"? I heard that these two books are very good."
"Okay, let's look for it together."
After the three of them had searched for half an hour, they didn't see any trace of the two books. Finally, Yao Bingcheng's eyes lit up and he said, "Sister, look at this, it's right. I think it should be."
This is a book with a damaged cover. Only a "number" and the incomplete lower half of the first word 늁 can be seen. It looks like the lower half of 눑늁.
Tang Xiaorou took it and flipped through a few pages, then nodded and said, "This is it."
"Very good."
As a result, the three of them were full of energy, and they finally found another one. Qin Xueqiong even found a fashion magazine from it, "The clothes in it are so fashionable." But she put it down quickly after she finished reading it. It is better to take this kind of book, just in case you get into trouble.
Tang Xiaorou did not try to persuade her much. This was a foreign magazine, so it was better not to take it with her for safety. However, she noticed that her mother took a closer look at a dressing box when she passed by the old furniture area, so she took the dressing box with her without saying a word.
"Xiao Rou, this is a waste of money."
Although the things here at the scrap yard are cheap, it still means money.
"Mom, let's go, it's almost too late."
Two books and a dressing case only cost two dollars in total, and the two books were given to me as a gift.
After the three of them arrived at the department store, Tang Xiaorou quickly bought the sewing machine and asked, "Comrade, can this sewing machine be delivered to your home?"
