When Xie Wanxing gently pushed open the door to Xie Lan's room, he saw Xie Lan sitting at his desk, absorbed in his reading. The winter sun shone through the window onto him, and the room was warm from the charcoal stove.
Xie Lan frowned slightly, seeming a little sleepy, but he still insisted on cheering up and reading.
"Axing? Why are you here?" Xie Lan's voice was filled with a hint of surprise. "Axing? Why are you here?" Xie Lan's voice was filled with a hint of surprise.
"Brother, I made a cooling ointment for you. It's easy to feel sleepy in winter, and this can refresh your mind." Xie Wanxing opened the lid, put some on his hand, and motioned Xie Lan to lower his head.
"Cooling ointment?" Although Xie Lan was a little confused, he still obediently put his head in front of Xie Wanxing.
Xie Wanxing looked at his eldest brother's puzzled expression and explained, "Yes, big brother. This is a cooling ointment that my mother and I made with mint leaves. Smell it, doesn't it have a refreshing smell?"
As she spoke, she gently applied the cooling cream on her hand to Xie Lan's temple. The coolness instantly spread across Xie Lan's skin, and a faint mint scent filled his nose.
Xie Lan felt that his originally dizzy head suddenly became much clearer. He looked at his sister in surprise, his eyes full of joy.
"Axing, this cooling ointment is amazing," Xie Lan exclaimed. "I feel refreshed instantly."
Xie Wanxing smiled proudly: "Brother, when you feel sleepy while reading in the future, just use this cooling ointment. It will definitely help you to wake up and concentrate on reading."
Xie Lan looked at his sister tenderly, his heart filled with emotion. He knew that his sister had always been considerate and always thought about him. He secretly sighed in his heart how lucky he was to have such a good sister.
Dad is doing so well now. Not only does he not have to work so hard anymore, he can also study and learn to read at home. Life couldn't be better.
"Little sister, don't worry, I will study hard in the future and support you with my achievements in the exams."
"Brother, I believe you can do it."
The brother and sister talked for a while, and then Xie Wanxing went out. She planned to go to Cheng Hui's room to play with her younger brother Xie Yao.
Xie Wanxing's cooling mint ointment is really useful. Someone came to him the next day after he made it. It was because he accidentally touched yam juice while processing yam. Washing it off with clean water didn't work, so he had to ask Xie Songlin for help.
Xie Songlin dug out some of Xie Wanxing's cooling mint cream and gave it to them. The moment the cooling mint cream was applied on the skin, the effect was immediate. The original unbearable itching feeling disappeared without a trace, and the pain also dissipated. Everyone was amazed and praised the magical effect of the mint cream.
Later, some more people came to ask for the cooling ointment. Xie Songlin suddenly thought that it would be okay to sell the cooling ointment after the New Year when the shop reopened.
Just as he was immersed in his beautiful imagination of the future, Xie Wanxing said coldly: "Don't sell weird things in the milk tea shop."
“Where can I sell it then?”
Xie Wanxing thought for a moment and said, "Just open a grocery store. If you come up with anything strange, you can sell it here."
Xie Songlin listened to his daughter's suggestion and began to seriously consider it. Opening a grocery store was indeed a good idea. This way, he could not only sell the cooling ointment, but also provide a sales platform for various novelties that might be developed in the future.
"That's fine. I'm going to open a shop after the New Year. What do you think we should call it?"
Xie Wanxing thought of the name her father had chosen, 'Xing Canteen', and couldn't help but sneer, "Dad, aren't you quite good at naming things?"
However, Xie Songlin was not affected by his daughter's teasing. Various names quickly flashed through his mind. Suddenly, he slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "Xingbao Pavilion!"
The more he thought about it, the better he thought the name was: "This is it. It's obvious that this is my shop."
Xie Wanxing couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth. She was really helpless about her father's naming style, but looking at Xie Songlin's excited look, she didn't dampen his enthusiasm for naming.
However, since I have decided to open a grocery store after the New Year, I have to think of what to sell in the store. I can't just put a bottle of cooling ointment on the shelf.
Xie Wanxing began to rack his brains. Since he could make mint cooling ointment, why not try making some simple soaps, hand creams, lip balms and the like?
Oh! And the charcoal pencil she just used to write with can be made more finely. This kind of charcoal pencil made from burning charcoal is more portable than a brush, can write small characters, and saves paper.
Xie Wanxing's thoughts were like a wild horse running out of control. She returned to her room and planned to search through the space to see if there was anything that was easy to make and useful in ancient times.
Xie Songlin was very pleased looking at his daughter's back. In modern times, he had hoped to trick Xie Wanxing into taking over his business, but he failed. Although he felt a little sad at that time, he finally chose to support his daughter to pursue her own career.
Now he doesn't even need to be led astray, Xie Wanxing has become obsessed with money and has ideas for making money one after another.
Xie Songlin burst into tears in his heart: It turns out that my Ah Xing is born to be a businessman. It is such a waste to be a doctor in modern times...
Xie Wanxing certainly didn't know that her father was thinking this behind her back. Now she was busy looking for her mother Cheng Hui to help her research soap and other things.
However, New Year's Eve is approaching and Cheng Hui is also very busy.
Before they knew it, half a year had passed since the family of three traveled through time. This was their first year spent in this strange era, and it was of great significance.
Cheng Hui has always been a person with a strong sense of ritual. She hopes to have a lively New Year, so she started to prepare various things carefully early. Taking advantage of the opportunity when Xie Songlin drove the ox cart out for a stroll every day, she took out a lot of things from the space.
She found a lot of red paper to cut window decorations, but unfortunately, neither she nor Xie Songlin knew how to do it. The only one who knew how to do it, Xie Wanxing, had short arms and couldn't hold the scissors to cut those delicate window decorations.
Fortunately, Qiuyue knew how to cut paper-cuts, and she volunteered to take on all the work. Her fingers danced flexibly, and the scissors moved freely across the red paper. After a while, exquisite patterns appeared on the paper. The paper-cuts had various shapes, including lifelike animals, gorgeous flowers, and auspicious patterns.
Xie Songlin and a few boys carefully pasted these paper-cuts on the windows of their home, and the whole house became festive.
Qiuyue sat quietly in the backyard room every day, concentrating on fiddling with the red paper and scissors in her hands. Before she knew it, she had cut a lot of paper-cuts, which she pasted all over the house. She even had some left over and gave some to Old Lady Shen.
