Chapter 604: Being kind
Chapter 604: Being kind
Song Ying was stunned and a little confused.
Tong Yunshu had no experience interacting with people of the same age, so naturally he didn't know whether it was normal for the elders to ask questions on the first meeting.
She bowed and replied, "My father's name is Mochuan, and my mother's name is Yun, and her name is Wanqiu."
"Tong Mochuan, Yun Wanqiu." Doctor Lin repeated slowly, with a bit of confusion in his eyes. They were all unfamiliar names, but why did this girl look somewhat familiar?
She stared at Tong Yunshu for a while, but still couldn't remember, so she gave up.
This man is old and his memory is not as good as it used to be.
Today is Yuan Shan's second day of dispensing medicine, and she still has a lot to learn. While there are no patients, Song Ying goes to the pharmacy to teach her how to recognize the talismans drawn by her and her master and uncles.
Tong Yunshu naturally followed along, looking at the prescription that was almost finished writing, she was also very curious.
As Song Ying spoke, she gestured with her hands, trying to figure out the rules of Song Ying and his group's ghost painting.
I don’t know whether Yuan Shan’s talent for reading and memory is too poor, or Tong Yunshu’s brain is better, but in the end she actually remembered more than Yuan Shan.
Later, when Yuan Shan was practicing picking up medicine, sometimes she couldn't find the medicine for a long time, and Tong Yunshu could remind her.
A few days later, when Yuan Shan finally mastered the rules written by the three disciples of Song Ying's school, Tong Yunshu had already memorized the locations of various medicinal materials. The two of them checked and prepared the medicine, and Song Ying didn't have to go to the pharmacy anymore. He just had to wait for them to prepare the medicine and then check it again.
Originally, Tong Yunshu came to the clinic to play and talk to people, but now she had to work for them. Song Ying felt very sorry for her and paid her wages.
Although the salary of a child coroner was not much, Tong Yunshu had never lacked money since he was a child, and he did not look down on 700 coins.
She just liked to talk to people every day, especially people of her age, chatting about clothes, jewelry, rouge and powder, which were experiences she had never had before.
Juan'er did not come. Her family believed that the most important thing for a girl was to get married, and they could not accept that Juan'er continued to practice medicine after getting married.
Luo Yanxing brought her to the city and together with Nanxing, she was responsible for the affairs of Yingnuoxuan.
Running a shop doesn't require much effort, but making pancreas, facial cream, and hand cream is both strenuous and delicate work, and it's easier with more people.
With Juan'er and Nanxing, Luo Yanxing and Meiyue can focus most of their energy on the Shu brocade shop.
The second day of the twelfth lunar month is Luo Yanxing’s birthday, which is also the winter solstice this year.
On this day, government offices are sealed, schools are closed, merchants are exempt from taxes, and employers must also settle wages for employees on this day. This is called the Winter Solstice Debt, not the New Year Debt.
In previous years, Song Ying and Luo Yanxing would choose a day between the second and eighth day of the Chinese New Year to celebrate their birthdays together.
This year they simply gathered everyone together to celebrate the Winter Solstice on this day.
At noon, a blue cloth carriage creaked to a stop in front of the courtyard gate.
"Sister! Are you guys ready?" Song Tian shouted as he jumped off the carriage and knocked on the door.
"Right away!" Song Ying's response came from inside.
Soon, the door was opened. Yuan Shan frowned and muttered, "Why are you in such a hurry? You have to give people time to open the door."
When she raised her eyes, she saw Yuan Qing standing beside the carriage. Her eyebrows curved and her voice became sweeter: "Brother."
Song Tian pouted and couldn't help complaining in his heart: This face changes faster than the weather in June!
He simply left the brother and sister behind and went in, then saw Song Ying slowly walking out supporting Doctor Lin.
He immediately put on a smile, took two steps forward, and firmly held Doctor Lin's other arm: "Doctor Lin, please slow down. We are not in a hurry. Let's walk slowly."
Yuan Shan, who was standing at the door, rolled her eyes and cursed in her heart: His face-changing skills are even better than those of the actors on the stage!
"Doctor Lin."
Yuan Qing bowed, walked to the other side, lifted the curtain, and he and Song Tian, one on each side, supported Doctor Lin and slowly got into the car. They also helped Song Ying and Yuan Shan get in.
After they were seated, they wanted to drive the carriage to Huichun Hall to pick up Doctor Ma.
At this moment, a white shadow suddenly flew down from the eaves and landed on the roof of the carriage with a bang.
"What the hell?" Song Tian stretched his neck to see what was going on, but was blocked by the eaves of the car.
He was about to stand up to check when he heard Song Ying say, "It's Tangtang."
Song Tian's mouth twitched. This is not a cat at all. It fell to the ground like a weight. With just this noise, the mouse had already run away.
He shook his head, pulled the reins and started the horse into a gallop.
Song Ying lifted a corner of the carriage curtain, glanced outside, and asked, "Hey, don't we have to go to the Shujin shop to pick up Second Aunt and Meiyue?"
As the weather got colder, Song Ergu mostly stayed at the nearby Shu brocade shop, while Mei Yue almost stayed there permanently.
In the past, they had to rely on their elder Aunt Song to live outside, but as the business grew, no one paid attention to these details.
The question is, we all go back to Yingnuoxuan together at night. Sometimes we are busy too late and can't go back before curfew, so we stay here for the night.
"Sister Yanxing and Master Chen were going to the workshop to pay the craftsmen, so they dropped them off this morning." Song Tian answered, feeling extremely envious.
I originally thought that as a clerk in the government office, although he would not earn as much as Sister Yanxing and the others, at least his status would be higher than hers.
Unexpectedly, she opened a Shu brocade shop and now has some face in front of all the dignitaries, much more respectable than him.
More importantly, you can make more money!
When they arrived at Huichun Hall, picked up Doctor Ma, and rushed to Yingnuoxuan, Luo Yanxing had not returned yet. Song Ergu and the sisters Meiyue and Nanxing were busy in the kitchen, and Song Yuan was lighting the fire for them.
Song Ying picked up his knee-guard and tied it on, then said to Aunt Song, "Aunt Song, please go sit outside. We can come here."
"No, no, there are not many dishes left. You can just sit outside. You are busy every day. Take advantage of the holiday today to have a good rest." Aunt Song was cutting vegetables without raising her head.
Song Ying cleaned his hands, pulled the kitchen knife out of her hand, and pushed her out. "With so many of us younger generations here, how can we let an elder like you do this? If it gets out, we'll be criticized."
Yuan Shan also came in wearing a knee-length apron and said with a smile, "Second Aunt Song, you can just go out. There are so many of us, we can still cook this meal by carrying it."
Second Aunt Song was amused. Doctor Ma's words came from outside. "Second Aunt, the children are right. You should just come out and rest. Let them tinker with it. We can also enjoy some peace and quiet today."
Song Ergu had no choice but to go out to accompany Doctor Lin and Doctor Ma.
Song Yuan, who was stoking the fire, jumped up immediately when he saw Yuan Qing. "Brother Yuan Qing is here too! Brother, you come and stoking the fire. I have something I want to ask him for advice."
After saying that, he ran away without waiting for Song Tiantong to disagree.
Song Tian frowned and subconsciously wanted to refuse, but he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.
