Dr. Liu was so anxious and angry that his voice was raised several degrees.
Which doctor is not a kind-hearted doctor?
It's not that he deliberately wanted to get angry at his young apprentice, it's just that the drug store in Nanzi County has been tricked by people using unprescribed medicine methods, so there is now a rule of only accepting prescriptions for medicine.
This kid is too naive, he is about to fall into someone's trap!
"Master, that person wrote a note saying that the medicinal materials were taken away. If any problems arise, it has nothing to do with our shop."
When Houpu saw the master getting angry in a hurry, he knew that the old man had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained. Then while talking, he hurriedly took out the note from his arms and handed it over.
Doctor Liu paused slightly, "Oh?"
He reached out and took the thin white paper.
What caught the eye was the delicate and handsome hairpin in small regular script. He described the situation of last night in detail and clearly. Finally, he did indicate that the medicinal materials had left the store, and promised that the pharmacy would not be responsible if anything goes wrong.
Houpu secretly raised his eyes and glanced at the master to catch the traces.
"The writing is quite detailed, but there is no signature or inscription on it."
Doctor Liu sighed deeply.
Young people are still soft-edged, and they won't have long memories unless they suffer a few losses.
"That's all, if something really happens this time, I'll just take care of it for you. In the worst case, I'll use your wages to pay for it."
Houpu originally thought that he would have nothing to worry about since he had obtained a handwritten note from someone else, but who would have thought that he was so careless that he didn't even think of asking for the other person's name.
"Thank you, master."
Hopu still has lingering fears.
An apprentice clerk in a drugstore can barely earn two hundred coins a month. If someone really wants to blackmail him, even if he sells himself to the store and works for ten or eight years in vain, he probably won't be able to afford the compensation.
But Dr. Liu told him the problem and asked him to pay for it with his salary, which clearly shows his caring heart.
"Well, you have suffered this loss before, so you can't do it again next time."
Doctor Liu smiled and reassured, and seeing that it was not too early, he went back to the front hall for consultation.
"master!"
"What else?"
"Master, I still have a prescription here."
As he spoke, Houpu took out another piece of paper from his sleeve and held it respectfully in front of Dr. Liu with both hands.
"This is the prescription that the man prescribed yesterday. The apprentice is not good at learning, but he still feels that this prescription is a little different from ordinary prescriptions. I would like to ask the master to evaluate it."
Doctor Liu raised his eyebrows and reached out to take it.
Although this apprentice looks naive, he is quite talented in the medical field. He has studied with me for two years. If he didn't want to suppress his spirit, I'm afraid he would follow me for follow-up treatment.
He glanced at the prescription with some characteristics. Maybe it was really different?
Doctor Liu lowered his head with a little interest.
The prescription was light and fluffy. It only contained the name of the medicinal material and the dosage, and there was no other unnecessary content. The handwriting was still handsome, exactly the same as the previous one.
Good words!
Doctor Liu secretly praised it and took a closer look.
But as time went by, his relaxed expression gradually faded, his brows furrowed slightly, and his face showed some solemnity.
"master?"
Hou Pu couldn't help but feel nervous when he saw his master's expression becoming more and more serious.
Is there something wrong with this recipe?
"Is this what the man drove yesterday?"
After a long time, Doctor Liu raised his head and looked at Houpu with hot eyes and a hint of urgency in his tone.
"Yes, master, how is it? Is there anything wrong with this recipe?"
Have a question?
How could there be a problem!
This recipe of Junchen Zuo makes four herbs complement each other, especially Cimicifuga, Bupleurum, Shengyang and Zhen, which also take into account the effect of relieving the external symptoms. They can replenish the middle and replenish Qi while also treating the external symptoms of Qi deficiency, which is really rare!
"Is this person really unnamed?"
Dr. Liu has been practicing medicine for many years, and he believes that he has his own way of treating diseases and prescribing prescriptions. Although he does not dare to claim to be a famous doctor, he has been practicing medicine for decades and has rich experience.
In his opinion, the prescription in his hand was clear in thinking and sophisticated in technique, and it looked like it could not be prescribed by an ordinary doctor.
But the disciple also said that the other party was not a doctor.
That's strange.
"How old is this person and what does he look like? If he were to come again, would you still recognize him?"
Doctor Liu pondered for a moment, folded the prescription in his hand, and returned it to Hou Pu's hand.
"this……"
Houpu subconsciously concealed Zhuang Keqing's gender, saying only that the person who came here was in his teens, and if he came again, he would definitely recognize him at a glance.
"Only a teenager?"
Doctor Liu stroked his beard.
This was probably the apprentice of some doctor who was out of town. I'm afraid he was in a hurry and lost the recipe he brought to his master, so he wrote it down again on the spot.
Thinking that he had given the most reasonable answer, Dr. Liu no longer bothered with the other party's age, but thought about when he would have the opportunity to discuss it with the doctor who prescribed the medicine.
Houpu stuffed the prescription back into his clothes and kept it close to his body.
…
After a night's rest, Zhuang Keqing planned to go shopping in the county with Shen Ling and Zhuang Er the next day.
The three of them didn't ask the innkeeper to bring them breakfast. They just went out early and bought some steamed buns and shortcakes from a street stall to cushion their stomachs.
Xu Shifu tried it, and the hawkers on the street resumed their usual enthusiastic hawking. Walking along the street, Zhuang Er's eyesight was not enough.
In the past, he thought Songling Town was very lively, but now it seems that he has seen less of the world.
Just the different types of shops that opened on this street were too many for him to even look at.
"Girl, you said this county town is different. The store sells much more stuff than in the town."
Zhuang picked up a piece of material he had just selected at the cloth store, and his honest face smiled happily.
When he came out this time, he was thinking about what to buy for his wife along the way. He couldn't afford this gold and silver jewelry, but he could still get some fresh and colorful materials. Spring was about to start, so at least he could make some.
Wear new clothes and wear them brightly.
"Second uncle, do you have enough money? It's not enough for me to have everything here."
Zhuang Keqing saw that Zhuang Er did not continue to visit other stores after leaving the cloth store, and she knew in her heart that her second uncle was afraid that he would be short of money and would not dare to spend money.
"Enough! Enough! Enough!"
Zhuang Er thought that no matter how difficult it was, he couldn't reach out to his niece, so he waved his hands hurriedly, shaking his head like a rattle.
Zhuang Keqing only smiled and said nothing, but he entered many shops one after another, and when he came out, his hands were full.
"Should we go to Deyue Tower for lunch at noon?"
When I rarely go out, I always want to eat some special dishes from outside.
Zhuang Keqing asked the innkeeper in advance where the most famous restaurant in the county was, and the other party told him the name of Deyuelou.
It is said that this is a century-old restaurant, and some of its dishes are particularly good. It would be a shame not to try it once when you come to Nanzi County.
The waiter was very eloquent, and with just a few words, Zhuang Keqing's stomach was filled with greed.
It's true that she has been here for more than ten years and has never had a serious meal out. She feels sorry for herself.
Today, no matter what, I have to try the charm of local catering in Dashengchao, just think of it as a market survey!
Zhuang Keqing was in great interest, but he didn't notice Shen Ling's slight frown when he heard about Deyuelou.
"Who are your guests?"
No need to ask, the building of Deyue Tower alone is uniquely tall in the county, not to mention the three gilded characters "Deyue Tower", which can be seen from a hundred or ten meters away, and can blind people under the sun. eyes.
"Three."
Deyue Tower has four floors in total. The first floor is noisy, the tables on the second floor are blocked by screens, the third floor has private rooms, and the fourth floor is a banquet room.
Hearing that they wanted to be quieter, the waiter led the three of them up to the second floor.
After choosing a seat by the window, Zhuang Keqing asked the waiter.
“What are the special dishes?”
The waiter bowed and said repeatedly, "We are close to the Huaiqing River, which is famous for its delicacies, such as braised sea bass, live drunk shrimp, braised lotus grass, and the most delicious river clam soup in this season... "
"Well, Aling, what do you want to eat?"
The waiter gave several names of dishes, and Zhuang Keqing went through them again and again. After thinking about a few, he turned to ask Shen Ling.
"How about some drunken shrimp, clam soup and braised lotus grass?"
"Um."
Shen Ling responded, but it was obvious that he was not very interested.
Zhuang Keqing thought that he just didn't have a good rest, so he smiled and secretly squeezed the other person's hand on his lap, and then asked Zhuang Er what he wanted to eat.
