Liu Er was overwhelmed with emotion, whipping his horse while saying, "Doctor Gu, you have a kind heart. You will be rewarded in the future."
"Ah Tie is lucky to be following you."
Ah Tie, sitting in the back, nodded vigorously, agreeing that his fortune was indeed to follow Yun Jiao.
He was now well-fed, clothed warmly, and living like a real person.
Upon arriving at the county town, the carriage stopped in front of the Wang Family Pharmacy, and Yun Jiao entered with Ah Tie.
Manager Wang smiled when he saw Yun Jiao, "Miss, why are you here again today?"
Yun Jiao smiled and said, "I have something to ask of you, not sure if it’s feasible. If not, please don’t trouble yourself."
Manager Wang remained expressionless, "Miss, tell me."
Yun Jiao hesitated for a moment, "After the new year, I plan to open a pharmacy."
Manager Wang’s face changed at first, then he laughed, "You want to open a pharmacy? Be the shopkeeper yourself?"
Yun Jiao nodded.
Manager Wang burst into laughter, "Now this is truly, ’Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.’"
"Although your father is in this trade, but you, you’re so young. Opening a pharmacy is not like opening a general store where you just sell things. There’s a lot of knowledge involved."
"Moreover, some doctors don’t necessarily know how to make medicine!"
Doctor Liu also laughed beside him, "Little girl, this is not child’s play. If you want to do business, try something else."
Seeing their reaction, Yun Jiao thought to herself, forget it, there’s no need to speak. She’ll teach Ah Tie slowly when they return.
At this moment, Ah Tie was very angry seeing Yun Jiao being mocked, "What do you know, Doctor Gu’s medical skills are exceptional!"
He looked at Doctor Liu, "Back then, you couldn’t cure my illness. But now, Doctor Gu has cured it!"
Doctor Liu frowned, "What nonsense!"
Yun Jiao held her forehead, she wanted Ah Tie to stay and learn some skills, not to humiliate others, "Doctor Liu, please don’t take it to heart."
But Doctor Liu insisted, pointing at Ah Tie, "Young man, tell us, when it was and what illness did you have?"
Ah Tie clearly said, "I had a sore on my head, four years ago, my mother brought me here, and it was you who prescribed the medicine."
"The sore was on the top of my head, with a foul smell. At that time, you covered your nose with a cloth before examining me."
Upon hearing this, Doctor Liu remembered, "It was you!"
Ah Tie nodded, "I took seven doses of your medicine and used external ointment, but there was no improvement."
"My mother took me to see you again, and you said this stubborn sore needed more medicine due to my warm constitution."
"My mother ran out of silver and had to leave."
Doctor Liu snorted, "Who can you blame? If you had continued the treatment, you would have recovered!"
Ah Tie shook his head, "But Doctor Gu didn’t have me take medicine, just used one free ingredient to cure my sore that lasted five years."
Doctor Liu was taken aback, "Impossible!"
Ah Tie bowed his head, "Would you like to see? It has scabbed over."
Doctor Liu glanced at Ah Tie’s head and indeed saw a newly formed scab.
His face alternated between red and white for a while before awkwardly saying, "It’s not surprising, perhaps this is her father’s secret recipe."
Ah Tie shook his head again, "No, Doctor Gu treated me before and couldn’t cure it either."
Doctor Liu’s expression suddenly improved, since Doctor Gu couldn’t cure it either, it wasn’t his fault.
However, being outdone by a little girl still made him uncomfortable.
He asked, "What ingredient was used?"
