Medicinal Diet
In order to express his apologies to his roommates, Song Shixia specially prepared sunscreen ointment for each roommate during the military training in mid-to-late October.
Song Shixia patted his chest and promised: "Feel free to use it. This is my unique formula. I guarantee that it will not burn your skin no matter how strong the sun is. Remember to give me feedback. I will continue to adjust according to your feedback."
In fact, Song Shixia made it up. She didn't know whether the pharmacy course had studied medicine preparation. However, the sunscreen she mixed herself was indeed effective. It was an upgraded version of sunscreen.
There was no concept of sun protection at that time, and several roommates would not have thought that military training would cause a tan, so Song Shixia could only make the excuse that it was sunscreen cream to prevent the skin from peeling due to the sun.
Several girls in the dormitory couldn't put down the ointment.
"Xia Xia, you're amazing. You can prepare your own medicine just one month after school started."
Song Shixia said modestly: "It's okay, mainly because I studied two majors, so you may smell a little bit of Chinese medicine."
"The smell of Chinese medicine means it's authentic, and I feel more assured."
They trusted Song Shixia 100% and did not doubt it just because they were going to apply it on their faces.
They look like this, can they become more beautiful after applying this medicine? As for disfigurement, it is even more impossible. Song Shixia is so beautiful, is there any need to harm them?
Everyone happily accepted the ointment and applied it on their face whenever there was sunlight.
Zheng Lingling looked at herself in the mirror and said, "This texture feels much more refreshing than vanishing cream. I feel like my skin is not peeling anymore."
Ding Jiajia applied it carefully: "I guess this must be a good thing. We should use it sparingly."
Chai Shanjing touched her face and said, "I have never used vanishing cream, but sunscreen cream feels so comfortable on my face, as if I could squeeze water out of it."
The weather during the military training in October was not hot, but the sun was still scorching.
Song Shixia was in a team several classes away from several of his roommates, so if he wanted to get feedback, he could only observe everyone's skin condition during their breaks every day.
After all this, Song Shixia, who had originally spoken at the freshman convention, attracted more attention.
Song Shixia refused the invitation of a male classmate to study together for the third time. She felt helpless. Did she have to wear a ring to show that she was married? But people in this era may not understand the meaning of wearing a ring.
The sunscreen cream was originally a gift from Song Shixia to his roommates as compensation for causing him to be questioned by Professor Ji, but he didn't expect that it would somehow spread to the next dormitory.
The neighboring dormitory was discussing behind closed doors.
"How dare you put something on your face without even a label? Aren't you afraid of ruining your appearance?"
"Keep your voice down. Those girls next door are worshipping Song Shixia."
"I really don't understand why a student majoring in pharmacy is so good at currying favor with her. Isn't she just a family member of a school teacher? Maybe she is the mistress of a teacher in our school."
"Don't say that. She was a speaker at the freshman convention and was admitted to Yenching University based on her real talent. Isn't it degrading to say that about us?"
The girl with the most malicious intentions doesn't like Song Shixia. She can't stand students not acting like students. She dresses so fashionably all day long, but she's not participating in a beauty contest. This is a school, not a stage.
The other roommates were only led by her to make a few complaints, and no one knew who in the dormitory spread the news, but within just a few days, the entire dormitory building knew that Song Shixia would use sunscreen ointment.
Some are full of malicious intent, while others are just curious about sunscreen cream.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but the girls who shared the dormitory with Song Shixia didn’t seem to get tanned, while everyone got more or less tanned because of standing at attention.
For a while, people came and went in Song Shixia's dormitory, all of them came to inquire about the sun-drying ointment.
Song Shixia was not at school at this time. Opposite her desk sat Yao Xue.
"You can apply for the sunscreen cream now. My roommates have provided feedback on their use. They all feel that it is refreshing and hydrating. I think it is definitely suitable for our northern winter."
Sunscreen cream not only protects against the sun, but also has the effect of a cold cream. Moreover, it is very low-cost and can be sold in a small packaging bag. It is inevitable that it can carve out a niche in the market.
Yao Xue wiped the back of her hand.
"I think the taste needs to be improved, such as a floral scent. The current smell of traditional Chinese medicine may not be acceptable to everyone."
Song Shixia thought this was a selling point.
"Of course we can make it floral, but since we are using Chinese herbal ingredients, it must have a medicinal scent to be convincing. And the after-scent of Chinese herbal medicine smells good. You should wait until it dries before you smell it."
Song Shixia continued to explain: "Besides, many raw materials for perfumes are derived from traditional Chinese medicine, but we will not touch that level for the time being. We will first make the most basic skin care products, and then touch the higher-level products after we have established a good reputation."
Yao Xue laughed and said, "Foreign perfumes are actually not very valuable."
Song Shixia nodded: "Yes, our ancestors also studied perfume. The famous perfumes in our history are no worse than those in foreign countries. It's just that I don't have the energy to take care of it at the moment. I want to make skin care products first to benefit my relatives and friends around me."
The smile on Yao Xue's face became even bigger.
"You are worthy of being my sister. I am waiting for you to make fortune with me."
Song Shixia teased: "You still need these three melons and two dates from me."
"How can I complain about money? Besides, what does my father's money have to do with me? I'm working with you out of my own pocket to prevent my father from interfering in my business."
Song Shixia said she understood that she and Yao Xue's cooperation was a 50-50 profit-sharing, with each of them holding half. Yao Xue was in charge of the management of the company, and she was in charge of the products. As for who they wanted to transfer the shares to privately, it didn't matter.
Song Shixia suddenly thought: "I recently learned from a book some medicinal diets for pregnant women to nourish their bodies. It is said that they have a certain effect in helping to produce breast milk. Are you interested?"
"I'm not really interested, but if we can help women recover quickly, my dad should be able to help us sell it for a good price. You know he has a wide circle of friends. The middle-aged men in his circle have three or four wives, and the thing those women have the most is money."
Song Shixia understood immediately. Isn't this just doing business with the ladies? This is very profitable, but the premise is that she is not allowed to come into contact with ladies, because these people usually have a lot of things to do.
She doesn't want to deal in luxury goods for the time being: "I'll ask if anyone is interested. Medicinal food is not expensive. I can prepare the ingredients and send them directly by mail. Just cook it according to the instructions."
"Okay, I'll call my dad and contact you if anyone buys it."
Song Shixia found a medicinal diet recipe for Hu Yu, and the child ate breast milk that night. She didn't want to sell this recipe at a high price, but she hoped that every pregnant woman could use it. It not only helps the baby, but also provides nutrition to the mother.
Too many pregnant women develop diseases when giving birth. If they don't pay attention to it at the time, the problems will gradually appear in the long run. Ordinary mothers-in-law don't care about their daughters-in-law's health. The whole family's attention is on the baby, so as long as pregnant women have the opportunity to get medicinal food, they can nourish their bodies in the name of considering the baby. This is the method Song Shixia came up with when she was struggling with medicinal materials.
