In modern times, she discovered that infertility had become a problem for many people, so she paid special attention to treatment methods in this area.
Sister-in-law Guihua has already given birth to two children, so it should not be a major problem. However, Zhuqing cannot jump to conclusions without systematic examination.
Of course, in ancient times, it was obviously impossible to do fallopian tube blockage tests or male sperm analysis like we do in modern times.
Zhuqing planned to find an opportunity to feel Guihua's sister-in-law's pulse, check her tongue coating, and then ask her about her menstrual period and see how her body was doing. At that time, she would try to help her with her condition so that she could have another child and get rid of the disease.
The regret of being childless.
So she smiled at Sister-in-law Osmanthus: "Sister-in-law Osmanthus, I believe you will have another child!"
Sister-in-law Osmanthus also smiled at her: "Yeah, I'll lend you some good words, I hope so!"
Then he waved to Zhuqing: "Qingya, come here. The bowl for holding dumplings that your family gave me yesterday is returned to your family. Come and get it."
Zhuqing walked over. Sister-in-law Guihua gave her a bowl and stuffed a few candies into her pocket: "Take it back and eat it with Zhushan. Dani's father brought it back last night."
There are not as many kinds of candies in this time and space as there are in modern times. Children from rural families like them usually only get two candies during the Chinese New Year.
The candy that Sister-in-law Osmanthus gave her could be considered a luxury product.
"No, Sister-in-law Osmanthus, keep it for Dani and Erni to eat!" Zhu Qing quickly refused.
"There are so many at home. Even the big girl and the second girl can't eat so much. Just take it if I ask you to take it! The medicine Zhushan takes every day is so bitter, but sugar can make her mouth sweeter." Sister-in-law Guihua pushed Zhuqing out of her house.
outside.
"Thank you so much, sister-in-law!" Zhu Qing thanked her from the bottom of his heart.
She is really a kind-hearted and considerate woman.
"Hey, if you say thank you to me, it's time to show up!" Sister-in-law Guihua smiled at her, and then urged her: "Don't you still have to go to work today? Go quickly! Don't let anyone tell you if you go late!"
"Yeah, well, I'm leaving then!" Zhu Qing went home, put the bowl away, gave the few candies to Zhu Shan, and then strode away.
She arrived early today, and Uncle Zhong took her to the warehouse of Dr. Qian's pharmacy.
"Here, weighing and dividing medicines are all done here first. You can take a look first and get familiar with it. In a few days, I will bring you over to identify the medicinal materials and learn how to divide medicines!" Uncle Zhong introduced to her.
.
Doctor Qian's warehouse for storing medicinal materials is very large, and the raw materials for many medicinal materials are neatly placed in categories.
Obviously, it is not an easy task to build such a warehouse.
Zhu Qing followed Uncle Zhong and walked around inside, which took almost a quarter of an hour.
Of course, Zhu Qing was dazzled by the medicinal materials inside.
"Uncle Zhong, are there so many medicines here that Doctor Qian brought back from other places?" Zhu Qing asked deliberately and curiously.
"Well, some were brought in by him, some were sent over by medicinal herb dealers, and some were grown at home." Today, Uncle Zhong's patience was much better than usual.
"These medicines are also graded according to the place of production. Generally speaking, authentic medicinal materials are more effective. Like Sichuan clams, the ones produced in Sichuan are better." Uncle Zhong didn't know if he was influenced by Doctor Qian.
The instructions I gave to Zhuqing today were also very detailed.
Zhuqing listened attentively. Although she had learned all this knowledge, it might not be a bad thing for her to review the past and learn the new, read more, and listen more.
As they got closer and closer to the center of the warehouse, Zhu Qing found a piece of paper stuck next to some medicinal materials, with a few lines of words written on it, which looked very much like a prescription.
He couldn't help but ask Uncle Zhong: "Uncle Zhong, what was written on that note?"
When Uncle Zhong saw those notes, his expression changed, and he said sternly to Zhu Qing: "You don't need to worry about those notes. You don't understand even if I tell you! Girl, you better speak less next time!"
Zhuqing nodded: "Hey, I understand."
Perhaps because Zhuqing saw the prescription, Uncle Zhong no longer took her around the warehouse, but took her back to the pharmacy where the medicine was prepared.
In the afternoon, Zhuqing asked him to go back early. He probably thought that Zhuqing was going back to help his mother with housework, so he readily agreed.
Zhu Qing left Qian's house and went straight to Liang's pharmacy.
"Mr. Liang, take a look. This cicada slough can clear away heat and treat hoarseness. Do you want to take some of it?" Zhu Qing first dumped all the cicada sloughs in the bamboo basket behind her in front of Mr. Liang.
"Hey, girl, how did you receive so many cicada sloughs? I want this!" Mr. Liang was shocked when he saw how much bamboo greens were poured out at once.
"I asked the children from the village to find it. It's twenty cents per penny. There must be a brave man under the heavy reward." Zhu Qing said with the corners of his mouth raised.
"Haha, you girl, you have so many ideas!" Mr. Liang couldn't help but shake his head when he heard that she actually spent money to buy children to help her find it, and then laughed again.
"I won't let you suffer here. I'll give you three cents and twenty cents! After removing the cost, you can still make two cents!" Mr. Liang is quite generous.
"Deal!" Zhuqing smiled at him.
She brought a total of about a hundred cicada sloughs today, and she could get a total of fifteen cents. After deducting the cost of five cents, she made ten cents.
"Mr., do you have any dried mint here? I want to buy it." Zhu Qing said business to Mr. Liang.
"Dried mint, you buy it alone? What's the use?" Mr. Liang was very surprised.
Zhuqing smiled at him: "I want to make some peppermint oil to sell."
"Peppermint oil? What is it?" Mr. Liang had never heard of it before and was very curious.
"You'll know when the time comes!" Zhu Qing deliberately let it slip.
"Okay, how much do you want?" Mr. Liang didn't get the answer, so he stopped persisting. So he asked Zhu Qing.
Zhuqing thought for a moment and realized that there was some fresh mint at home. If it was dried mint, I would probably buy a pound of it first, which should be enough.
So she said, "I'll buy a pound first! How much does a pound cost?"
Mr. Liang was stunned for a moment, and then got a little angry: "Girl, are you kidding me? The medicines I have here are all priced according to the price. How can you buy them directly by the pound?"
Zhuqing smiled and said: "Old sir, don't worry about how I buy it. Do you have it here? I am really useful!"
Mr. Liang sighed and said: "Hey, that's enough. Anyway, no one is visiting my drug store now, so I'll give you all the mint in my storehouse! A pound of mint will cost you thirty cents."
!”
Zhuqing was stunned after hearing this. Although she didn't understand the market price, Mr. Liang would definitely not be making money if the dried mint was sold at such a price.
