Chapter 79： Seller

Chapter 79 Seller

The two guessed well. On the second day, Mrs. Wang forced Zhao Qiu to ask Zhao Dong for the formula.

But this time, Zhao Qiu didn't let Wang say what he said, and he refused to go. The angry Wang beat and scolded him severely, and then went back to the house angrily.

When Zhao Dong's family saw Zhao Qiu again, Zhao Qiu's face was pale and he was quite haggard. He came to find Sun Kang at Zhao Dong's house.

At that time, Sun Kang was taking an exam on Zhao Zhitong's homework.

Zhao Dong suddenly saw Zhao Qiu's appearance, he was startled, and hurriedly asked, "Fifth Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing the concerned expression of the second brother, Zhao Qiu didn't hold back, and a grown man burst into tears: "Second brother, my wife, please save my wife, she fainted suddenly today, and she is bleeding .”

It turned out that he went to work in the field today, and when he came back, he found his daughter-in-law was very haggard, and after eating, she suddenly fainted and bled, and he was terrified.

So he ran to Sunjiazhuang to look for Sun Kang, but was told that Sun Kang had just gone to his second brother's house, so he ran over anxiously.

Human life is at stake, Sun Kang did not hesitate, and immediately followed Zhao Qiu to his house.

Zhao Zhitong also followed Sun Mei.

After arriving, Zhao Qiu directly led Sun Kang into the house. At this time, Sun Jin had already woken up, but his face was pale and he was lying weakly on the bed.

Sun Kang took out a silk handkerchief and put it on Zhao Qiu's wife's wrist, then sat down and began to take a pulse.

Sun Mei and Zhao Zhitong were standing at the door. Their yard was very quiet. The door of Mrs. Wang's room was closed tightly, and the lights were not turned on, and there was no sound at all.

Zhao Zhitong looked at Sun Kang's pulse seriously, his eyes were so bright that stars were about to pop out.

After a while, Sun Kang put away the silk handkerchief and stood up.

Zhao Qiu hurried forward and asked worriedly, "Uncle Sun, what's wrong with my wife? Is he alright?"

Sun Kang said: "It was a good thing, your daughter-in-law has it."

Hearing this, Zhao Qiuxian was stunned for a long time without reacting. After a while, he was pleasantly surprised, and then worried again: "Uncle Sun, is it, is the child not well?"

Sun Kang nodded: "Yes, I have just been pregnant for more than one month, which is when the fetus is at its weakest. However, your daughter-in-law's body is too weak, coupled with overwork, and now there are signs of miscarriage."

Zhao Qiu showed panic on his face, and asked in a hurry: "Then, can you keep it?"

He has been married to his wife for several years and has never had a child. Now he finally has a child.

Thinking of this, Zhao Qiu's face was full of annoyance and remorse, he shouldn't have left his wife alone at home.

After Sun Kang sat down in front of the table and chairs in the room, he said: "I'll give you a prescription for nourishing the fetus first, and you can go and get some medicine for your daughter-in-law and take care of it properly. She is tired, this child can be kept."

As soon as he could keep it, Zhao Qiu finally heaved a sigh of relief, his face full of gratitude: "Thank you Uncle Sun, thank you Uncle Sun."

At this time, Sun Jin on the bed stroked his stomach, tears in his eyes kept swirling.

Sun Mei stepped forward to comfort her a few words, telling her to take care of her well: "Don't think about it, just take care of it for a while, and after giving birth to a child, there will be good days in the future."

Sun Jin nodded with tears in his eyes: "Thank you, Second Sister-in-law."

Until Zhao Qiu sent them away after the pulse diagnosis, the door of Mrs. Wang's room was not opened, and it was quiet all the time.

Sun Mei guessed that Sun Jin's sudden bleeding today must have something to do with Wang.

Sun Mei's guess was true, it was really because of Wang, because she didn't ask for the tofu recipe, she took her anger out on Sun Jin.

After Zhao Qiu left home to work in the fields, she began to instruct Sun Jin to do that. She was not allowed to rest for a moment, and if she did not do well, she would be slapped on the face.

At the end, Sun Jin told Wang that she was not feeling well today and her stomach was uncomfortable, but Wang didn't listen, which caused Sun Jin to faint and bleed suddenly.

Zhao Zhitong naturally doesn't understand these twists and turns. At this moment, her heart is full of the scene of her grandfather's pulse diagnosis just now, and at this moment, she is pestering her grandfather to learn.

Zhao Zhitong: "Grandpa, when will I start learning pulse diagnosis?"

Sun Kang laughed: "Don't worry, don't worry, you should memorize all the "Fu of the Nature of Medicine" first, and then you can do it after memorizing thoroughly."

Zhao Zhitong pouted, extremely proud: "Grandpa, I have already recited all the cold and hot medicines. Don't worry, I will be able to recite the whole book soon."

Sun Kang smiled and praised: "Good, good, very good, the girl is working hard."

…

The three of them were talking and went to work at home. When they rushed home, the food was almost cold.

Because Sun Jin was pregnant and almost had a miscarriage, the fifth child had a fight with Wang. After that, Wang stayed honest for a while and never came to Zhao Dong for another prescription.

…

In a blink of an eye, the autumn harvest is coming, and now every household is preparing to harvest grain, so there are no villagers to pull tofu to sell.

So, they only make Wang Dachui from the oil shop in the county town and tofu from the landlord’s house above the market in a day, and the quantity is not so large.

Besides, the grandfather's family also needs to collect food, so Zhao Dong doesn't let the two uncles come to help, and only the second uncle can come alone.

Although the quantity of tofu is not as much as before, Wang Dahui, the oil seller in the county, is still very powerful. He can sell two to three hundred catties of tofu and bean curd in a day, and his income is fairly stable.

However, the good times didn’t last long. Not long after, when Wang Dahui came to get the tofu, he said that someone in the county had imitated their tofu.

In order to compete with him, he even started to lower the price, selling it for two cents a dollar, and his business was taken away, so I wanted to ask Zhao Dong if he could give him a cheaper price.

Tofu will be imitated sooner or later, and Zhao Dong has expected it long ago, but Zhao Dong is not very in favor of a price war with others.

First, if the price is lowered, it will not make much money. Second, after the price is lowered, those who bought tofu before will feel cheated, which is not good for long-term business.

Fortunately, they also have bean curd and stinky tofu, the secret sauce prepared by Sun Mei, and stinky tofu, which they can’t imitate, so those who love tofu and stinky tofu will still buy theirs.

This allowed Wang Dachui to grab back a lot of business, but the sales were not as good as before. They sold at most a hundred catties a day, which was not as good as before.

However, because Zhao Dong's family also had to collect food, and he was very busy recently, so he didn't care much.

On the contrary, one day, the owner of Guangjuxuan in the market came to him.

After seeing Zhao Dong, he immediately explained his purpose with a smile. It turned out that he wanted to buy the recipe for stinky tofu and bean curd sauce.

"I am willing to pay fifty taels of silver for a formula, and I will only give thirty taels of silver for a common formula. However, after you sell me, you can no longer sell it to others. Do you think about it?"
