"Okay, I understand all this. Don't worry, I will be more careful," said Mr. Zhang
"Then there are the medicines I have here. The sliced ones are all placed in the drawer. I have carefully labeled the names on them. When you need to use them, just take them directly. On the shelf over there, the top three layers are all for medicinal baths, and the ones at the bottom are whole herbs that have not been sliced or ground into powder.
The medicine on the table here is western medicine. Most people in our village are reluctant to use western medicine unless it is an emergency. For example, if a child has a high fever and needs to reduce the fever quickly, we will prescribe antipyretic tablets, but they must be given according to the dosage.
The small jars here contain some external ointments that I made. I have written names on them. If anyone needs them, just give them to them according to the names on them.
Also, we don’t charge for other medicines except Western medicine. If the villagers bring some food from home, you can accept it, but we can’t accept money or receipts.”
"Okay, I've got it all down. I'll familiarize myself with it in the next two days. If there's anything I'm not clear about, I'll ask you later," said Mr. Zhang.
"Then you read a book first, I'll make you some porridge for breakfast," Tong Yiya said
"No need to bother, I'm not hungry. If you're still sleepy, go back and sleep for a while," said Mr. Zhang, feeling embarrassed to bother her.
"No trouble, I'll prepare it for you and bring it over to the charcoal to cook. You can eat something first. Fu Shinian and the others can come over and make lunch," Tong Yiya said.
"Okay then, if you need anything from me, just let me know," said Mr. Zhang
"I understand. Then you get familiar with it first. I'll go to the kitchen first," Tong Yiya said and walked out of the pharmacy.
She went to the kitchen, got some fragrant rice, washed it clean and put it in a casserole, then added half a pot of water. She put a spoon on it, took the fire rack she had prepared, took it to the pharmacy, put the fire rack on the charcoal fire, put the casserole on it to cook, and then she went back to the kitchen to prepare some side dishes.
These are all non-spicy. Although she has provided support from time to time to Mr. Zhang and his family over the years, their stomachs have been damaged by hunger. So she made breakfast lighter to nourish their stomachs.
All the prepared side dishes were placed on small plates and taken to the pharmacy on a tray, along with bowls and chopsticks for Mr. Zhang to drink porridge.
After everything was ready, Tong Yiya said something to Mr. Zhang, went to open the courtyard gate, then went back to the room, wrapped herself in the quilt, and continued to sleep for a while.
When she woke up again, she was awakened by a knock on the door. She heard the urgent knock on the door, and hurriedly got off the kang and ran to open the door. She saw Fu Shinian outside. Before she could say anything, she saw Fu Shinian squeeze in. After closing the door, he said to her: "Why did you open the door without wearing a coat? Aren't you afraid of catching a cold? Go back to the quilt and keep warm."
Then he pulled her back to the kang, asked her to sit on the quilt on the kang, pulled the quilt to wrap her tightly, and asked, "Are you hungry after sleeping for so long?"
When Tong Yiya heard him say that he had slept for so long, she asked, "What time is it now?"
"It's almost two o'clock in the afternoon," Fu Shinian replied.
Really? Thinking about how she had slept until the afternoon, she felt her stomach and found that she was indeed a little hungry, so she said, "I am hungry. I was asleep just now and didn't feel it. Now that I have just woken up, I feel so hungry that I can eat five pounds of pork."
Fu Shinian was amused by her cute appearance. Seeing that she was still in the quilt, he said, "Then I'll bring you some food. Eat first, and then we'll line up to share the meat."
"They started slaughtering pigs today, so why didn't you go to help?" Tong Yiya asked
She was so busy that she forgot about it, otherwise she wouldn't have slept so long in the morning.
"Guardian Dong went first. I just wanted to see why you haven't gotten up yet. I was afraid you were sick," Fu Shinian said.
Tong Yiya thought that she had made him worry, and said rather embarrassedly: "I slept late last night, and now Grandpa Zhang is helping to look after the pharmacy, so this is the first time I've been lazy and slept a little too much."
"Okay, then wait, I'll bring you the food. After you finish eating, we'll clean up and share the meat," Fu Shinian said, scratching her nose.
"Yeah, thank you Nian Nian," Tong Yiya said with a smile
Not long after Fu Shinian went out, he returned with a large bowl filled with a lot of meat and a small amount of cooked vegetable heart. He came to the kang, sat down, and slowly fed her.
Tong Yiya thought of Grandpa Zhang at home, so she asked, "Did you two invite Grandpa Zhang to eat?"
"He did. He received several patients in the morning. Although the villagers were surprised that the pharmacy had a new owner, they didn't say anything because they saw that his medical skills were not bad. We were all watching from the side. The villagers didn't seem to recognize who he was talking about," said Fu Shinian.
"I wouldn't be able to recognize you either. After taking a shower, you're like a completely different person," Tong Yiya said with a smile.
After Tong Yiya finished her meal, while Fu Shinian went to put away the dishes, she got up, put on her clothes, shoes and socks, went out of the house to wash her face, and the two of them went to say hello to Mr. Zhang and went out to get the pork.
They stayed in the village for another two days and collected all the pork and fish. They spent a day packing their luggage. They froze some of the meat and fish they collected and pickled the rest and hung them up.
After everything was ready, the three of them packed their luggage and set off for the county. When they arrived at the county that day, it was almost dark. They had no choice but to stay in the guesthouse for another night. They bought train tickets to Beijing early the next day. At around ten o'clock that day, they checked their tickets and boarded the train for Beijing.
This time, Fu Shinian used his connections to get three sleeper tickets. The three of them were in the same compartment, with two lower berths and one upper berth.
Fu Shinian let Tong Yiya sleep on his upper bunk, so it would be convenient for him to sleep on the lower bunk to help get things.
On the first day on the train, the three of them were in good spirits, and Tong Yiya even taught them how to play cards.
A day passed, and after a night's rest on the train, the three got up the next day, each took a book, and sat on their bunks to read.
The three of them arrived in Beijing early in the morning on the third day. The person who came to pick them up was a good friend of Fu Shinian. This man is now a soldier and his military rank is not low, otherwise he would not be able to drive the car.
Fu Shinian didn't need his brothers to remind him, he took the initiative to introduce her to others: "This is my girlfriend, Tong Yiya."
Then he turned to Tong Yiya and introduced her: "Xiaoya, this is my brother who grew up with me. His name is Qin Feng."
The two nodded to each other as they got to know each other. Fu Shinian handed the bag in his hand to Qin Feng, and he took the bag from Tong Yiya. Then the four of them walked out of the station together.
Qin Feng and Dong Weibing walked in front and complained: "Shi Nian is such a spoiled brat. I came to pick you up out of kindness and even helped carry your bags."
