Seeing Chu Jinzhou’s straightforward agreement, a smile appeared on Fan Wenxuan’s face.

Progressive, very good, very good.

“Little Sister Ning.”

Zhuang Qingning was checking the century egg curing method in the workshop, correcting any issues. Hearing the sound, she looked up to see Zhuang Wencheng rushing over enthusiastically.

He was sweating profusely.

Brother Wencheng?” Zhuang Qingning was quite surprised, “When did you come back?”

I came back last night.” Zhuang Wencheng said with a grin, “I heard that Uncle Yonghe is helping with your herbal medicine collection. Should I go directly to Uncle Yonghe’s house to start the work?”

In theory, that should be the case.

However…

Zhuang Qingning instructed the others to continue working, then pulled Zhuang Wencheng aside, “Have you talked to Aunt Wang about it?”

Zhuang Qingning was well aware of Mrs. Wang’s temper; if Wang knew that Zhuang Wencheng had been chased away by the pharmacy, she would probably throw a fit.

Although Zhuang Qingning wasn’t afraid, for Zhuang Wencheng’s sake, she couldn’t be too aggressive in confronting it directly.

This kind of dilemma, having to balance between personal interest and childhood friendship, was the most torturous situation for Zhuang Qingning.

“I did.”

Zhuang Wencheng straightened up and smiled, “Yesterday afternoon when I came back home, I first threw a tantrum, saying that studying medicine is extremely hard. I can’t eat well or have a decent place to stay. I have to please everyone, the master often scolded me, and I had to do all sorts of tiring chores in the shop. In short, I couldn’t stand it any longer and don’t want to continue.” I also pointed out that being a doctor in the county town is utterly dangerous.

If I accidentally wrong treatment, I could be beaten or have my door blocked. It would be better to be a wandering doctor at home. It’s leisurely and doesn’t earn less money.”

“Did Aunt believe you?” Zhuang Qingning couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows.

Zhuang Wencheng was a good-hearted and honest man. He had always said before that as a disciple, he should work hard and bear hardships for the master. Because of this, almost everyone in the village believed that Zhuang Wencheng was a thoughtful and kind-hearted child. freewebnσvel.cøm

A person who always put others’ needs first, was honest, and unafraid of hardship, if suddenly started to complain, people would think it’s indeed the circumstance that has been unreasonably harsh.

“My mother didn’t believe it initially. But I talked to my father in advance about the inside story, and he helped me, saying that I always said that I was not tired or busy, but now I was complaining about impatience. This shows how much suffering and tiredness I have endured in daily life.”

“Upon hearing this, my mother immediately burst into tears and said that she regretted not knowing about it earlier. If she knew, she would never let me suffer like this. In the end, she comforted me, saying that it didn’t matter if I didn’t study.”

Zhuang Wencheng smiled and said, “I didn’t expect it to go so smoothly. Good thing my father is clever, he helped me a lot.”

‘In the morning, I told my mother about helping you manage the medicinal herbs in the coming days. Firstly, I have not been at home for a long time and had not got familiar with these people. If I continue to be a doctor in the future, people won’t recognize me. This would be a good opportunity to mingle with everyone.”

“Secondly, I told my mother that this is also Uncle Yutian’s business, and he entrusted me with this. So naturally, my mother agreed.”

In fact, although Mrs. Wang agreed, she also talked a bucketful into Zhuang Wencheng’s ear.

Telling him, among other things, that apart from these two reasons, he must be thinking about Zhuang Qingning and wanting to help her, and taking this opportunity to get close to her, to resolve his thoughts as soon as possible and not think too much.

Zhuang Wencheng felt annoyed, but he responded obediently on the surface.

He didn’t tell Zhuang Qingning about these words.

Upon hearing Zhuang Wencheng’s words, Zhuang Qingning couldn’t help but squint her eyes in laughter.

She has to say, it really was the case.

An honest person suddenly starts complaining about certain matters. Naturally, people won’t instinctively think that this person has some ulterior motive. They would think that there must be something wrong with those matters.

Zhuang’s father really did have a good grasp of the situation and managed to convince Mrs. Wang successfully.

In conclusion, no matter how, as long as Zhuang Wencheng was settled, Zhuang Qingning could feel slightly relieved here. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

“Since Aunt Wang has agreed to this, I’ll take Brother Wencheng to Uncle Yonghe’s house right now. Brother Wencheng, you can take this opportunity to get acquainted with the place.” Zhuang Qingning said, removing the apron from her body.

“Sure.” Zhuang Wencheng’s eyes squinted in a smile, and then he followed Zhuang Qingning to Zhuang Yonghe’s house.

Zhuang Yonghe and Mrs. He were busying themselves at home, checking and weighing the mugwort and calamus and other things that people had sold to them. Upon seeing Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Wencheng’s arrival, Zhuang Yonghe left Mrs. He to continue the work, freeing himself to talk to them.

On learning about Zhuang Wencheng’s intentions and Zhuang Qingning’s plans, Zhuang Yonghe was overjoyed, “This is just perfect timing. I won’t hide it from you, I don’t feel confident about handling this task.”

“Everyone says that herbs vary greatly in quality. I really don’t understand these things, and I’m afraid that the stuff I take in might not be what we need. Now with Wencheng here, he can check on these things, and I can finally relax a bit.”

What Zhuang Yonghe said was indeed the truth.

He was okay with purchasing beans or duck eggs, whether the beans were good and the duck eggs were fresh could be clearly distinguished by their appearance and feel. But herbal medicine looked all the same to him, which made him a bit uneasy during work.

The key thing was, with Zhuang Wencheng there, there would be an extra pair of hands to help with the work. This arrangement would not only relieve his anxiety but also make things easier.

Uncle Yonghe, don’t worry. I will take care of this matter in the future.” Zhuang Wencheng promised, laughing heartily.

Zhuang Qingning was concerned about the century eggs workshop and simply explained some things to Zhuang Wencheng, asking Zhuang Yonghe to first guide Zhuang Wencheng to familiarize himself with the prices and the daily tasks, and then she hurried back to the workshop.

Zhuang Wencheng, on the other hand, followed Zhuang Yonghe closely to learn about the process of buying medicinal herbs.

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed. Early this morning, Zhuang Qingning arrived at the shop with the goods delivery cart from town.

Big Sister Ning.” Zhang Qiuying’s face radiated excitement, “I haven’t seen you for several days. Where’s Qingsui? Can’t Qingsui come today, either?” “Probably two more days. She might get a day off the day after tomorrow, and I’ll bring her over to play with you then.” Zhuang Qingsui smiled and replied.

“Alright, I will be waiting.”

With the confirmation of a specific time, Zhang Qiuying felt like she had something to look forward to. Nonetheless, she took out the object she had been holding in her arms and handed it to Zhuang Qingning, “Big Sister Ning, this is something I embroidered when I was free. It’s not good, but it’s passable. It’s for Qingsui. Could you hand it to her?”
