Chapter 464 - Letter from Hu Feng (7)

Seeing him in a hurry to leave, Bai Zhi hurriedly stopped him and said: “By the way, buy me a medicine stove. The bigger, the better, I will give you the money later.”

Doctor Lu left as soon as her voice fell. Bai Zhi then suddenly thought, why she didn’t think of selling ointment or pill? It’s also good business. As long as her medicine is effective, why can’t she sell it? She’s afraid that people will form a long line with money on their hands.

It’s much easier to do this than to farm, and earn money. It’s better to be a seller than be a doctor in the medical hall.

“Sister Bai, I’m hungry.” Ru’er, who can’t tell when she arrived, pulled the corner of Bai Zhi’s clothes. She looked up and stared at her poorly.

Bai Zhi squatted down and held her on the bench beside the table in the yard: “You eat this cake first. Sister will cook now.”

Ru’er nodded her head cleverly. Bai Zhi patted her head and then turned to the kitchen.

There weren’t many things in the kitchen, but it has everything. Bai Zhi soon lit a fire, cooked a pot of porridge, and made a few refreshing side dishes using the ready-made dishes in the kitchen.

She has always been quick in her work. In addition to overall planning, she can do multiple tasks at the same time, without delay or lack of efficiency.

Seeing her entering the back room with porridge and side dishes, Old Lady An frowned and said: “In just a short while, you already made a meal?”

Bai Zhi smiled and replied: “Not only I made a meal, but I also finished writing a prescription and talked business with Doctor Lu.”

Old Lady An liked Bai Zhi more and more. If she can have such a granddaughter, how nice would it be? She doesn’t know what gotten in Old Lady Bai’s mind. She couldn’t ask for more if she has a granddaughter like her.

Old Lady An drank the porridge, then she looked at Bai Zhi and asked: “Zhi’er, where did you learn medicine?”

Bai Zhi knew that the old lady would ask this, so she had already thought about the answer. She immediately said: “I picked up a medical book a few years ago, and then I practiced it according to the medical books. It can be considered as self-taught.”

Old Lady An gave her a thumbs-up: “You are really smart. I heard that even if some people studied medicine for a lifetime, they can’t put it much into action. But you, you can do many things just by following books.”

Bai Zhi scratched her head: “I just got lucky. Hurry up and eat, I will go to the fields again to help. Please take care of Ru’er.”

Old Lady An sent her out and said: “Don’t worry, I will take good care of Ru’er.”

Just when Bai Zhi took a few steps forward in the road, she saw a middle-aged man carrying a wooden box and entered Village Chief Li’s house.

Bai Zhi looked at the man who was in a hurry. Was this man the messenger?

Hu Feng’s letter must be inside that wooden box, right?

Thinking of this, she immediately turned around and went back to Village Chief Li’s house. When she entered the yard, she saw the man in front of the house with a wooden box. Old Lady An was standing at the door, holding two letters in her hand.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Bai Zhi rushed up and asked: “Is there a letter from Hu Feng?”

Old Lady An shook her head: “I don’t know how to read, you can look for it yourself.” Then, she passed the letters to Bai Zhi.

The handwriting of the two letters was the same. One letter was written for her and the other one was for Zhu Manyin.

Bai Zhi asked: “Who is Zhu Manyin?”

Old Lady An said: “Zhu Manyin is Zhu Si’s son. Zhu Si and Hu Feng went to join the army together.”

Bai Zhi nodded her head. This was natural. The two of them join together so they must have gotten close. Zhu Si was illiterate, so the task of writing a letter fell to Hu Feng.

Bai Zhi handed the letter for Zhu Manyin back to Old Lady An: “This is the letter from Zhu Si. Please keep it first. Zhu Si’s wife will definitely come to pick it up later.”
