Chapter 183: Recovery
Another medicine boy came out carrying some herbs and said with a smile, "Please sit for a while. It's almost time. I'll be back soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, Doctor Wei came back covered in dust.
He usually has a smile on his face. Sometimes it's a sly smile when a prank is successful, sometimes it's a sly smile when a show is good, and sometimes it's a maniacal laugh when a difficult problem is solved. But today he was like a walking negative energy machine, and when he walked past, it was like a vengeful spirit walking by.
"Are you here?" Doctor Wei said calmly, "Sit down for a while, I'll be out soon."
He went in for a while and came out after changing his clothes.
He calmly removed the splint on Tang Dafu's leg and let him stand up and walk slowly.
Tang Dafu tried it out first, and when his two legs were finally the same length and he could walk without limping, he hugged Li Taohua excitedly and said, "Wife, my legs are healed. I am not lame anymore."
"You still have to be careful recently. You can't do heavy work. You have to take care of yourself first. Of course, I'm not asking you to be lazy. Your hands are not useless. You can help with housework."
"Thank you, Doctor Wei." Li Taohua said, "You are worthy of being our Xiao'er's master. You are really capable."
"I'm not in the mood to talk to you today. If you have nothing to do, just go! Yixiao, you've worked hard during this period, so I'll give you two days off and you can come back in three days! The same goes for you two. The pharmacy will be closed first and we'll put up a sign saying it's closed for two days." After Doctor Wei finished speaking, he sighed and went into the backyard.
Tang Yi smiled and walked towards the two medicine boys and asked, "How long have you been following Master?"
"I've been there for two years, he's been there for three years. Don't worry, he'll be listless for a few days no matter where he is. We used to persuade him not to go to brothels. Others go there for pleasure, but he'll be depressed for a few days every time he goes there. Brother Peng and I discussed it and we think he fell in love with the girls in the brothels, but because he was too poor, the girls didn't like him, so he was so sad."
"Has he been like this for the past two or three years?"
"yes!"
“How many places did you change?”
"About five or six... they never stay long each time."
"He goes to the brothel every month and picks up the same girl?"
"We don't know about that. But we changed five or six places, it can't be the same girl, right? Maybe he just likes this kind of girl." Xiao Peng said.
Doctor Wei lifted the door curtain and looked at the two medicine boys who had committed treason with a stern face.
One of the two medicine boys pretended to collect the herbs, while the other pretended to find a sign to hang on the door. They didn't look at him and pretended nothing happened.
"We should leave too." Li Taohua said, "My girl, do you have an appointment with Miss Xia?"
"Yes. The shop should be almost finished with decoration. I'll go take a look." Qin Huiyin said, "Then let's go!"
After they arrived at Qingyue Restaurant, they asked the owner to pass on a message for them, saying that they were looking for Xia Ruwan.
Xia Ruwan quickly went downstairs, took them to the location of the new store, and then showed the results to Qin Huiyin.
"How is it?" Xia Ruwan asked, "If there is anything inappropriate, just tell me."
"Sister Xia is a strong woman in the business world. What are you worried about? Everything here perfectly presents the appearance on my drawing." Qin Huiyin said, "But now there is one thing. We are in the food business, and the dining table needs to be specially made, so the current plan is to customize the dining table. If Sister Xia has no objection, I will let the Zhang family father and son take charge of this matter."
"I heard that you got a share of the profits from the business of Carpenter Zhang and his son." Xia Ruwan smiled softly, covering her mouth with her hands. "Well, you cooperated with me and got a share of the money from me. Now that the money is in the family, you introduced the table and chair business to another partner and got another share of the money from him. You are more calculating than I am. I think no one here can be more shrewd than you."
"It is precisely because I have a share in Zhang's Carpentry Shop that I can get this batch of goods at the lowest price. Zhang's father and son have worked so hard for so long, it's impossible for them to work for nothing, right? Sister Xia doesn't seem to be such a cruel person. I won't make any money from my share, and I will leave some hard-earned money for Zhang's father and son." Qin Huiyin said, "If sister doesn't want to, then you can find another company to do it."
"I ask someone else to do it? Can I draw the blueprint? If I can't draw it, who can I ask? You little fox, are you a fox that has turned into a spirit?" Xia Ruwan said with a smile, "Okay, since you promised the lowest price, let them do it! When the store here opens, you have to let me make more money. I haven't started to make any money yet, and I've already invested a lot of money."
Qin Huiyin and Xia Ruwan were chatting and laughing.
Tang Dafu and Tang Luwu both looked at Qin Huiyin with admiration.
Are all the young girls nowadays so capable? Xia Ruwan is only fourteen years old, and Qin Huiyin is only thirteen after the Chinese New Year, but she is so sophisticated when talking about business, just like an old man who has been immersed in the business world for many years.
Xia Ruwan had a lot of things to do, so after agreeing with Qin Huiyin to prepare this batch of dining tables first, she went to inspect the next branch with her servants.
Tang Luwu said: "This Miss Xia is so amazing!"
"My daughter is amazing too." Li Taohua was proud of it. "Yinyin, now that your uncle Tang is back, you don't have to worry about the business in the city anymore. You can take a rest at home."
"Okay. You guys take care of it." Qin Huiyin said, "It's a good opportunity for me to supervise the production of these dining tables. Uncle Zhang can make tables, but we need to find a blacksmith to make the iron pots we need. In addition, there are many special kitchen utensils that need to be planned. I'll make the plan in advance to avoid chaos when the business opens."
The blacksmith Qin Huiyin was looking for was the same one she met last time with Song Ruize.
When the blacksmith saw Qin Huiyin, he smiled and said, "It's you, little girl. What do you want to buy? I'll give you a discount."
"Boss, this time I brought a big order. It's because you have a good relationship with my brother. When I take care of your business, I am actually taking care of my brother's business." Qin Huiyin handed the design drawing to the boss.
The boss looked at it and said in amazement: "Is this a pot? What is it used for?"
"Don't worry about what I use it for. Just make it first. I want fifty pots like this." Qin Huiyin said.
At the dam gate. Song Ruize didn't see Qin Huiyin and was about to leave without even eating. Li Taohua called him and took out a cloth bag from the box next to him.
"Yinyin gave it to you, why don't you take it?"
Song Ruize quickly took it and said calmly, "What is she busy with?"
"She has a lot of things to do. After all, she is the backbone of our family." Li Taohua said, "She hasn't had time to come here recently. When she and Miss Xia open their store, our business here will be handed over to the Song and Zhang families. Of course, Yinyin will still get dividends, and it will be good for her if you introduce more customers."
