179 Aren’t We Great?
Following the servant, Gu Qingxue walked into the inner hall and saw Huang Rongfa drinking tea and checking the accounts.
“We haven’t seen each other for a few days. Shopkeeper Huang looks even more dashing now,” Gu Qingxue said with a smile.
Huang Rongfa immediately stood up and saw that the person who came was indeed Gu Qingxue, he greeted her with a loud laugh, “Lady Gu! Long time no see. Come, quickly sit down. Go, go, quickly serve Lady Gu tea. Remember to order the tea that Lady Gu likes!”
“You’re welcome, Shopkeeper Huang. I’m here today to discuss with Shopkeeper Huang about returning for service. I want to return to treat patients today. I wonder if there’s any problem with the shopkeeper’s side?” Gu Qingxue and Huang Rongfa sat side by side at the tea table, they sat down side by side.
“Of course, there’s no problem! Lady Gu, you haven’t been back for almost a month. Do you know how many patients have come to see you?” Huang Rongfa saw that Gu Qingxue had made a trip to Jing City, and she looked more and more radiant. “Everyone says that Jing City is good at raising people. I really didn’t expect Lady Gu to keep her word and return to Qingyuan Town.”
“I like this place, so I must come back. Shopkeeper Huang, I still have something I want to ask you for today.” Gu Qingxue took out a piece of paper from her sleeve, she handed it to Huang Rongfa. “I want to ask Shopkeeper Huang to help me look for the herbs on this. The price is not a problem.”
Gu Qingxue liked living near Qingyuan Town because there were many mountains nearby and there were many rare herbs.
Otherwise, Rong Zhan would not have come all the way to Qingyuan Town to look for herbs.
Huang Rongfa took the note and read it. He frowned immediately and said, “These herbs are very rare. I’ll try my best to find them for Lady Gu. I’m afraid it will take a few days.”
“Then I’ll have to trouble you, Shopkeeper Huang. I’ll get ready to start work now.” Gu Qingxue stood up and left the back hall.
She had just given Huang Rongfa the list of medicines she had researched on the way back. It was the name of the medicines that might be able to cure her grandmother of the deadly poison in her body.
The deadly poison in her grandmother’s body was very rare. She still needed to study it further before she could slowly cure the old lady of the poison.
After putting the matter aside, Gu Qingxue returned to the front hall to give medical services.
Soon, the news of Gu Qingxue’s return spread throughout Qingyuan Town. There was a long queue outside An Pharmacy.
The day flew by. When the sun was about to set, Gu Qingxue finished seeing the last patient. She took Huang Rongfa to buy braised chicken for the three cubs and went home in Li Dali’s carriage.
By the time Gu Qingxue returned home, Nanny Sheng had already boiled rice porridge and cut the vegetables.
Gu Qingxue came to the kitchen and saw the dishes that had been prepared. She looked helplessly at Nanny Sheng, who was standing outside the door with the three cubs. “Nanny, didn’t I say that you don’t need to do the cooking anymore?”
“I have nothing to do. Besides, it was the Young Masters and Young Miss who helped me cook today. I’m not tired,” Nanny Sheng said with a smile.
Dumby raised his hand and said in a childish voice, “Mother, we all have helped you. Aren’t we great?”
Gu Qingxue walked over and patted the heads of the three children. “You are all very obedient. To reward you, mother will cook something delicious for you tonight. Go and play first.”
The three children cheered happily and started to fight in the yard.
After giving the children a loving look, Gu Qingxue rolled up her sleeves and started cooking.
