123. The wages are paid
"It's much cheaper than the medicine in the hospital." Grandma Yun gave the money to Shen Ruoxi, then took the medicine and went home.
Seeing Shen Ruoxi earning fifty cents easily, Shen Da was extremely pleased. Medical skills can not only save people, but also make money. The best skill in the world is medical skills.
"Ruoxi." Shen Da waved to Shen Ruoxi.
"Dad, what's wrong?" Shen Ruoxi walked towards Shen Da with a suspicious look on her face.
"When treating people in the village, don't charge such high fees for medicine. They are all poor people, so please help them more." Shen Dadao.
"I know." Shen Ruoxi is not a sinister doctor. She has always treated the villagers preferentially.
Shen Da said happily, "Ruoxi, although I don't know when you learned medical skills, but with this skill, you should do more good deeds to make up for the debt to the village."
Shen Ruoxi nodded. She has been making up for the mistakes made by the original owner. Now there are fewer and fewer people in the village saying bad things about her.
…
In the sky, stars shined brightly.
Shen Ruohan sat at the table, counting the coins one by one, with an excited expression on Guazi's face, "I made one penny for the biscuits, one and a half penny for the flower cakes, and two and a half penny today. That's a lot of money."
Shen Ruoxi opened the door and walked in, just in time to hear Shen Ruohan's words, "How are the biscuits sold today?"
"The sales were very good. Many people ate it and came back to buy it a second time. Second sister, shall we also do biscuit business in the future?" Shen Ruohan raised his eyes, his eyes sparkling and extremely bright.
"Okay, but we have to solve the problem of raw materials first." Shen Ruoxi agreed.
Although Shen Ruohan is young, he is not stupid. "The ingredients you are talking about are butter and powdered sugar, right?"
"Yes." Shen Ruoxi nodded, "Ruohan, it took me a long time to refine these two things. If you want to do the biscuit business, you have to learn it yourself."
Shen Ruohan understood what Shen Ruoxi meant and said quickly, "Second sister, you teach me and I will learn it carefully."
Shen Ruoxi hesitated for a moment and then said, "Actually, there are books on how to make these ingredients. I taught you one type and the next. Why don't you start learning to read as soon as possible, and I will give you the recipe then. Did you do your own research?"
Shen Ruohan's eyes suddenly became bright and bright, "Okay, second sister, I will listen to you."
Shen Ruoxi likes people who are motivated and diligent, "I'll ask my sister-in-law and Ruohao. If they want to learn too, let's learn together."
Although Xu Qinglan is married and has a child, she is only eighteen or nineteen years old. Strictly speaking, she is still a child.
Shen Ruohan nodded excitedly, "I'll go with you."
The two sisters came out of the house and walked to Xu Qinglan's room, "Sister-in-law, we have something to tell you."
Xu Qinglan came over and opened the door, "What do you want to do if you two don't go to bed so late?"
Shen Ruohan took Xu Qinglan's hand and said excitedly, "Sister-in-law, the second sister wants to teach us how to read. Are you willing to learn it?"
Xu Qinglan felt very sudden and didn't know how to react, "Literacy?"
Shen Ruohan smiled and said, "Yes, doesn't the second sister know how to read? She is going to teach us. If my sister-in-law wants to learn, we will learn together."
Xu Qinglan held the corner of her clothes with her hands and hesitated, "Isn't literacy only for men?"
Shen Ruoxi explained, "Sister-in-law, you are wrong. No matter what you do, it is not the exclusive power of men. We can do it if we want to."
Xu Qinglan lowered her eyes and thought for a while, "Learn, I want to learn. If I learn how to read, I can help you in the future."
If Ruoxi opens a shop, Ruohan sells cakes, and Ruohao keeps bees, she must also be valuable, otherwise she will definitely not have a place in the family in the future, and she will have to work hard.
"Okay." Shen Ruohan hugged Xu Qinglan happily, "Sister-in-law, let's learn together."
Xu Qinglan also got excited, "When will I start learning? Can I prepare for it?"
"Tomorrow." Shen Ruoxi replied, "Sister-in-law doesn't need to prepare anything. She just needs to free up her time tomorrow night. From now on, we will start studying after dinner every day."
"I will arrange the time." Xu Qinglan nodded.
Shen Ruohao's room was right next to him. He had already heard what the three of them were saying, so he opened the door and walked out, "I want to learn too."
Shen Ruohan said, "I won't miss you."
A smile appeared on Shen Ruoxi's face, "Then it's settled. I'll prepare it tomorrow, and we'll start formal study in the evening."
Shen Ruohan suddenly reminded, "By the way, second sister, third aunt will let us go to her house for dinner tomorrow."
Shen Ruoxi said, "Since the elders have said so, let's prepare some gifts."
"I'll prepare the gift." Shen Ruohao thought that Shen Ruoxi had to go to the medical clinic and didn't have time. "We will meet you at the medical clinic at noon, and then we will go to the third aunt's house together."
"Okay." Shen Ruoxi nodded, "Okay, that's it. Let's go back to the room and sleep."
Everyone went back to their respective rooms, and slowly, it became quiet.
…
Gushengtang.
At dawn, Wang Yi came over chewing steamed buns, took out the key from his sleeve, opened the lock, and opened the door to the hospital.
After eating the steamed buns in a few mouthfuls, Wang Yi took the broom and swept the floor, then fetched water and wiped the table, busy in an orderly manner.
After a while of burning incense, Tan Ye came to the hospital carrying a medicine box and said, "Wang Yi, good morning."
Wang Yifang squeezed some water from his handkerchief, wiped the counter, and responded with a smile, "Good morning, Dr. Tan."
Tan Ye put down the medicine box, prepared the consultation table, then took the medical book and looked through it.
Over the past few days, he had been reading medical books, reviewing the past and learning new things. He realized many medical principles that he had never known before. He decided to continue to read medical books every day in the future.
There was no one in the shop now. Wang Yi was cleaning and talking to Tan Ye, "Doctor Tan, have you eaten?"
"Eat, if I don't eat, my mother won't let me go out." Tan Ye's expression softened.
Wang Yi laughed, as if he had found a soulmate, "My mother is the same, she is afraid that I will be hungry."
While the two were chatting, Shen Ruoxi and Shen Suhong arrived.
Shen Ruoxi glanced at the two of them, then walked towards the counter and took out the account book. Every day she would take a look at the previous day's business situation to make sure she knew what was going on.
The store has been open for exactly one month as of yesterday. Looking at the records in the account book, it shows that it has earned ninety taels of silver this month, an average of three taels per day.
A smile appeared on Shen Ruoxi's face, "It's okay for the first month."
She raised her head and said to the three people in the shop, "I will pay you your wages today."
Shen Suhong blew over like the wind, "Ruoxi, how much can you give me?"
"I'll give you three taels." Shen Ruoxi took out three taels of silver and gave it to Shen Suhong, "Thank you for your hard work every day in decoction, tidying up the ward, and looking for guests."
Shen Suhong returned two taels of silver to Shen Ruoxi, "One tael is enough, three taels is too much."
Shen Ruohan pushed the money to Shen Suhong, "Take what is given to you. As a sister, how can I lose you?"
Shen Suhong waved her hand, "It's no loss, no loss. Compared with before, life now is simply better than imagined."
