The fragrance of medicine is alluring, the farm elder sister is cool and cool

Wen Qingcheng came back to her senses and nodded, "Mom, remember to call me early tomorrow. I'll be there at 12:30 am."

"Why so early? We still have to account for the time we're on the road."

"Yeah, so I thought, I'll start taking some bedding to Wangji tomorrow. If the weather is bad, I can still live there."

"Okay, don't worry about that. The hot water is ready. Soak your feet before going to bed."

Wen Zicheng still had a lot to say to Wen Qingcheng, including interesting things in school and his longing for the first year of junior high school. But seeing that his elder sister was so tired, he stopped pestering her.

Wen Qingcheng went upstairs directly. Soon, Ye Xiuying came with a foot bath basin with steam rising from it.

"Mom, I can do it myself." Wen Qingcheng hurriedly took the basin and placed it next to the bed.

Ye Xiuying was worried. This was her daughter's first day at work, and she was already so tired. Was she getting along well with everyone at Wangji? Was anyone giving her a hard time? Her daughter was a good girl, but she was too straightforward and easily offended people. I thought others wouldn't give her a hard time.

Although she had a lot of questions, seeing that her daughter was so tired that she was too lazy to even speak, she didn't ask any more questions and left the room with a worried look on her face.

Wen Qingcheng sat on the edge of the bed, took off her shoes and socks, and soaked her feet in warm water. The soothing feeling instantly spread throughout her body. She slowly lay down, closed her eyes and enjoyed the tranquility of the moment. Her thoughts gradually drifted away, and she thought of Axuan and Chuyi.

Chuyi said that he was the next head of the He family in Kyoto. After he passed the junior pharmacist exam and opened a pharmacy, maybe one day he would open it in Kyoto. Then, they would meet again. I wonder if Chuyi would forget her when he returned to that glamorous world...

Wen Qingcheng lay on the bed, soaking her feet. After a tiring day, she relaxed and felt her whole body sink into the soft blanket. Her consciousness gradually became blurred, and she fell asleep in the warmth...

The next morning, as the light of dawn was just breaking, Wen Qingcheng woke up to the sound of birds chirping on the roof without waiting for Ye Xiuying to call her.

She lifted a corner of the quilt and got up. She felt cold on her upper body and looked down to find that she was not wearing any clothes. She remembered that she had soaked her feet yesterday and fell asleep with her clothes on. The footbath on the ground had been taken away and there was no water mark on the floor. She guessed that Ye Xiuying had wiped her feet last night and took off her clothes and covered her with the quilt.

Thinking of this, Wen Qingcheng felt warm in her heart, and stretched herself. Only then did she feel sore all over, and her fingers felt swollen and painful. Thinking of the centipedes she and Qi Zhen had strung together in five large earthenware pots yesterday, she didn't dare to use force on her fingers now, as it would hurt if she did.

After getting dressed, she walked to the window, opened it, and the fresh air rushed in. Wen Qingcheng took a deep breath and immediately felt refreshed. It was another day full of energy.

In the yard outside the window, Ye Xiuying, wearing an apron, walked out of the kitchen. She looked up and saw that Wen Qingcheng had woken up, so she called her down to have breakfast.

Wen Qingcheng didn't even put on makeup today, she washed her face and went to have breakfast. Ye Xiuying served Wen Qingcheng a bowl of rice porridge and handed her a vegetable pancake, she ate a few bites with pickles, and when she saw it was getting late, she stuffed a pancake in her mouth and went to the stable.

"Hey, don't eat on the road. The cool breeze will heat up the air. I've packed it for you, along with the bedding. Take it with you." Ye Xiuying said as she picked up the packed bedding and the packed vegetable pancakes from the chair.

Wen Qingcheng was also stunned when she saw the quilt that was tied up like a caterpillar. Ye Xiuying laid the quilt across Wen Qingcheng's horseback. "No matter how busy you are at noon, you must remember to eat."

Wen Qingcheng agreed, got on the horse and left, otherwise Ye Xiuying would be very worried and would not be able to finish giving her instructions until dark.

Wen Qingcheng arrived early. Wang's herbal medicine store had just opened. She led the horse to the stable, carried the bedding to Qi Zhen's room, took out the vegetable pancakes and ate them with her.

Qi Zhen was also sore all over today. In the morning, she had two big dark circles under her eyes as she cleaned the medicine shop with a broom. Manager Pang came and saw the two of them sweeping the floor, but he didn't say anything. Today, the two of them had a tacit understanding and would no longer work hard to speed up, but cleaned the courtyard carefully.

After a while, Manager Pang yelled at the two men, "Why are you still sweeping the floor? Hurry up, the goods are coming, go unload the truck!"

The two men had no choice but to drop their brooms and follow him outside. There were three carriages parked in the yard, and the carriages were filled with cloth bags filled with medicinal herbs.

Wen Qingcheng started to move the herbs with a few odd jobs. After moving the herbs, she had just sat down and hadn't even had a sip of hot water when she was called by another worker to remove the impurities and clean them.

Wen Qingcheng and the others had no main missions, no specific processes to be responsible for, and they just ran around wherever they were needed, just doing odd jobs. It seemed that after the junior pharmacists signed up, she would have to have a good talk with the manager.

"Hurry up, this is the motherwort that the He family in Kyoto urgently needs." shouted the middle-aged woman.

The two of them ran over in two quick steps and found a small stool to sit down. The middle-aged woman who was talking was named Liu. She had been working as a pharmacist for many years. Because the medicines she cut were of good quality, she was known as Liu Yishou in Wangji Medicinal Materials Store.

Liu Yishou saw the two men wearing clean clothes and was disgusted. "You don't even wear a bib or a headscarf. You don't look like you're working."

The two smiled without saying anything. Following her instructions, they began to pour out a bag of fresh motherwort, remove the impurities and pick the herbs. They were so busy that they didn't even have time to go to the toilet.

While working, Liu Yishou chatted with several other pharmacists and asked Qi Zhen all sorts of questions. Qi Zhen was a straightforward person and wanted to integrate with them more quickly, so he told them all about his family background.

Soon, they became familiar with each other. Wen Qingcheng kept her head down and worked, rarely interrupting.

"Miss Wen, where are you from?" Liu Yishou asked.

Before Wen Qingcheng could speak, Qi Zhen answered, "Her family is from Yueya Village, and our two families are not far away."

"Is Miss Wen's family in this business? Do you have any relatives working at Wang's?"

"Not really." Wen Qingcheng did not give a detailed answer. She hated it when people she just met asked her all kinds of questions.

In the following time, Liu Yishou's attitude towards her was obviously a little cold. In addition to weeding the motherwort, she was also called by other pharmacists to fetch water at any time. Because after the motherwort was picked, it was washed.

Wen Qingcheng and Qi Zhen were busy like spinning tops. The two girls fetched five large jars of water from the well behind the pharmacy, and their shoulders were rubbed raw.

It was almost time to get off work. After finally finishing the work at hand, Wen Qingcheng thought about cleaning up early so that the steward Pang wouldn't ask them to stay again.

The two of them swept the floor of the medicine shop with brooms, put all the medicine utensils in order, and wiped the table for cutting medicine spotlessly. They carefully left a place to work slowly.

Wen Qingcheng didn't feel relieved until everyone started to organize the herbs and clean the place. She quickly cleaned the area. She shook off the dust on her body and waited for the end of the work.
