Mu family's little lucky girl

Chapter 56 Buying
The joy of Dr. Liu accepting Muli as his apprentice, the old man Mu and Mrs. Lin were so happy that they didn't fall asleep all night. When they woke up in the morning, although there were bruises in their eyes, it didn't affect their spirits at all.

Mu Li had just finished drinking a bowl of miscellaneous noodles and was about to serve a second bowl when old man Mu and Mrs. Lin urged her to go to Dr. Liu's house to help.

With that posture, he didn't want her to stay at home for a moment.

Lin went to the kitchen and took out a dozen hard-boiled eggs. These are the marinated eggs she made early this morning.

"You take all these eggs to Dr. Liu, and you will help Dr. Liu today. Don't ask about the housework. You have your father and brother."

Xiao Muxuan licked his lower lip, he hadn't eaten mother's marinated eggs for a long time, he was a little greedy, "Mother, I want to eat this too, please save one for me."

"You want to eat it another day." Lin handed the small basket to Mu Li, "Hurry up and go."

"Porf—"

Xiao Muxuan pouted dissatisfiedly.

Another day, another day, another day will disappear.

Mother really treated him as a three-year-old child, he was deceived by mother many times before, and now he has been deceived to gain experience.

Mu Li took the small basket, and tentatively said: "Can you wait until I finish drinking a bowl of glutinous rice?"

"I'm not full." Mu Li felt aggrieved, rubbing her flat stomach with one hand.

"You eat two corn buns and drink a bowl of paste. You should be full by now." Lin urged her, "Hurry up, while the eggs are still warm, Doctor Liu can eat them for breakfast."

Mu Li curled her lips, she has always eaten like this, and she has never seen her mother dislike her so much before.

Unable to drink in a daze, Mu Li took another steamed bun from the basket, walked out, and said vaguely: "Brother, I will leave the land reclamation to you today."

"Don't worry, take care of me, you just have to learn medical skills from Doctor Liu."

Mu Qing raised her head from the bowl, said with a smile on her eyebrows.

……

When Liu Renzhong was sitting at the door of the main room eating steamed buns in cold water, the melodious voice of a young girl like Ying's cry sounded in the yard.

"Ms. Liu, I'm coming."

Liu Renzhong put down the bowl and took a look. After seeing who it was, he smiled and said, "It's Ah Li."

Mu Li came to Liu Renzhong alive and kicking, and when he saw that his breakfast was steamed buns soaked in cold water, he felt very uncomfortable.

I think Dr. Liu is considered a highly respected person in Ping'an Village, and he is kind and loyal. He is always concerned about the health of the villagers in Ping'an Village, and he charges the lowest herbal medicine fee for their medical treatment, but his own life is so shabby.

Look at the roof full of holes. When it rains, the house looks like a water curtain hole. Although the villagers spontaneously organized to repair the roof of Dr. Liu's house, it is because the house has been old for a long time. Make up, the total is still easy to break.

Thinking of such a good old man, he should live a good life.

Mu Li put away the sourness in his heart, and still had a smile on his face. Although Dr. Liu was a weak doctor, he was proud, poor, but rich in spirit, so he never felt that he was poor and pitiful.

As long as you can feed your stomach.

Don't care about other things.

Speaking of money, Dr. Liu himself has very little desire for money, which is dispensable, so his cost of living is also very low, and he only needs to eat enough, the simplest way of life.

But as a doctor, he had to need money.

Because he didn't have some medicinal materials in his hands, so he had to go to the pharmacy to buy them, which required money; but when it comes to money, it's not so easy.

Liu Renzhong never went to see a doctor for the villagers for profit, and the villagers themselves were poor, so over the years, Liu Renzhong himself contributed a lot of money to the hospital.

His quality of life has also deteriorated as a result.

But Liu Renzhong didn't care about these things. What he was really worried about was that he didn't have money to buy medicinal materials. What would the villagers do if they came to him for medical treatment in the future?
Medicinal materials have been expensive since ancient times, and most villagers are reluctant to pay high prices for medical treatment, so many medicinal materials here are bought at high prices and sold at low prices.

For this reason, many villagers are reluctant to spend money.

Sickness is still hard to carry.

In addition, he is now short of cash, and he can no longer afford the price of the medicines. When he was young, he could go up the mountain to collect medicines, but not now.

Thinking of this, Liu Renzhong felt heavy.

Mu Li's voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Teacher, this is the marinated egg that my mother asked me to bring to you. You should eat it while it's hot."

Liu Renzhong refused with a smile: "I have it all, take it back quickly."

He does have eggs here. Some people in the village look down on doctors, so they use their own eggs to exchange for medicinal materials. Liu Renzhong doesn't know how to cook, so the villagers refuse to take them back. In this way, they have accumulated a lot.

Mu Li sat down on the ground, and said eloquently: "You are my teacher now, and students should respect their teachers. Besides, I have already brought it here, so how can I take it back? If my parents know, they will probably pick me up." A layer of skin."

As he said that, Mu Li cooperated with each other in a cold war.

Liu Renzhong looked at the eccentric Mu Li, and felt relieved for a while, he laughed aloud, and readily accepted it.

While Liu Renzhong was eating marinated eggs, Mu Li took the broom and started sweeping the yard for him, went to the kitchen to help Liu Renzhong wash the pots and bowls, and ran to the main room to clean and wipe the table.

Taking advantage of the sunny day, she went to the west room where medicinal herbs were stored, and took out all the herbs that had not been dried and put them in the yard to dry.

Liu Renzhong ate two marinated eggs, and put away the rest. When he came out again, he sat on the threshold of the main room, watching Mu Li who was busy with everything with satisfaction.

After drying the medicinal materials, Mu Li raised his arms to wipe off the sweat on his face. His little face was flushed red by the sun, and he said with a smile, "Teacher, I took out all the medicinal materials and dried them in the sun. In the yard, in the stove, there are still There is a main room, I have cleaned it all, teacher, if there is any work that needs to be done, just tell me."

Liu Renzhong smiled and said, "Sit down and rest first."

Mu Li sat down beside him according to his words.

"Today happens to be the day when I go to the market to buy medicinal materials. You are here today, and I will take you there to learn how to buy medicinal materials." Liu Renzhong said gently.

……

The bullock cart was parked at the entrance of the largest pharmacy in the town. There are a lot of medicinal materials here. Liu Renzhong often comes here to buy, but the price here is also higher than other pharmacies.

Today he wants to come here to buy a precious medicinal material, which is not available in other pharmacies.

The shopkeeper Fang of Jishitang greeted Liu Renzhong enthusiastically when he saw Liu Renzhong, and when he lowered his eyelids, he saw Mu Li next to Liu Renzhong. He smiled and asked, "Which family is this little girl from?"

Liu Renzhong smiled, and introduced to shopkeeper Fang: "This is my new apprentice, Mu Li. I came here to buy medicinal materials today, so I just brought her here to learn together, and let her come here by herself later."

Mu Li called out sweetly: "Hello, Shopkeeper Fang."

Shopkeeper Fang smiled and nodded.

Liu Renzhong asked straight to the point: "Master Fang, has Polygonum multiflorum arrived?"

He came here to buy Polygonum multiflorum a few days ago. At that time, the pharmacy had just sold out and had not been replenished. This time Liu Renzhong came here for Polygonum multiflorum.

Shopkeeper Fang smiled courteously: "Come on, Dr. Liu will follow me."

Liu Renzhong followed to the counter, and shopkeeper Fang took it out from one of the medicine cabinet compartments, spread it on the counter, and said with a smile: "Doctor Liu, I have worked so hard to get this back, and it took me a lot of effort." .”

"How about the finished product?"
