Shen Yue also felt happy. In this other world, Cui Sheng could be said to be the first person to show kindness to her.
I haven't seen him for a long time, and I don't know how his health is.
If it still doesn't get better, then she has to seek diagnosis and treatment, and she must not delay it any longer.
She had to find time to go over and take a look, but for now she had to solve the matters at hand first.
While Shen Yue was distracted, Lu Zisu and the others had already sorted and packed away the medicinal materials.
Lu Zisu looked at a cart filled with almost the same kinds of medicines and stepped forward and asked, "Miss Shen, these are mostly the same medicinal materials. What are they for?"
"Well, we are going to make potions. You and Miss Yun will leave later today, and we will make some potions." Shen Yue said to the two people at the counter.
When he turned around, he saw the little boy pulling up his sleeves and walking out the door.
"Hey, wait a minute." Shen Yue stopped the boy.
If it hadn't been for his help, these medicinal materials would not have been collected so quickly.
The boy paused when he heard the sound, then turned to look at Shen Yue. As if he was remembering something, he quickly brushed the strands of hair from his forehead with his hands and covered his right eye.
The boy's voice was calm, "What's going on with the boss?"
"Have you been waiting around the Free Medical Hall? Didn't you say you would come back in two days?" Shen Yue asked.
She was a little surprised when the boy rushed out to help just now. She didn't expect that although the boy was not big, he was quite strong.
The boy seemed to be nonchalant and said, "I was passing by with nothing to do, and I happened to see the unloading of goods here, so I came to help."
What the boy said was not consistent with his age.
What he said was not as immature as a child should be. On the contrary, he was much more mature than an adult.
Shen Yue's heart trembled. She had forgotten that the boy had said that he was the only one at home, and she couldn't help but feel distressed in her heart.
The boy gave her a feeling very similar to that of Shen Yang. They both came out on their own at a young age.
Shen Yang still has her sister to rely on, but the boy only has himself, alone.
The boy looked at Shen Yue's suddenly complicated expression and secretly lowered his eyes. He was causing trouble to others again...
The boy apologized softly and subconsciously turned around and left first, not wanting to disturb Shen Yue by his rash appearance.
"Hey! Wait, where are you going?" Shen Yue called to the boy again. If she remembered correctly, the boy should have nowhere to go, right?
"I'm sorry, I disturbed the master. You go ahead and take your leave." The boy cupped his hands, his body still upright.
As he said that, he was about to walk outside.
The back view at this moment looks very similar to Shen Yang's. Both of them are afraid that they will cause trouble to others, so they choose to bear it by themselves.
What's wrong with kids today?
Why are you all so judgmental?
Shen Yue didn't have time to think too much and pulled the boy back.
"You said you can make your own decisions, right?"
The boy nodded and tightened his grip on the deformed and damaged corners of his clothes, waiting for Shen Yue's next words.
"You did a great job today. Since you can make the decision, let's start from today. You will receive two taels of monthly silver for food and accommodation. The monthly silver will increase as your medical skills improve."
In Shen Yue's view, the boy is a good prospect, but he still needs to be polished before he can succeed.
When the boy heard Shen Yue's words, his eyes suddenly widened. He was obviously shocked by what she said, and his whole body became excited.
Shen Yue had to go out for a while, so she left the boy in the care of Lu Zisu for the time being, and told him, "Grind the medicinal materials I just brought into powder. I will be back soon."
Shen Yue took a brief look at the boy's figure, turned around and left the charity hospital.
She promised Luo Qingjiu that she would make him obscene clothes, and also make clothes for the medical children of the charity hospital.
It would take a while to get the medicine clothes, and the size hadn't been decided yet, so Shen Yue came back with only underwear and a few sets of ready-made clothes.
When they arrived at the Yiyi Hall, Lu Zisu and the boy had already started grinding medicinal materials with the stone mill in the courtyard. Yun Murou in the front hall was not idle either, holding a stone mortar and pounding medicine while looking at the shop.
Time was a bit tight, so Shen Yue put away the things and started to prepare the powder. In order to save time, she didn't use butter paper to divide the powder into portions this time, and filled the medicine directly in jars.
Stone grinding is much faster than stone mortar. Yun Murou felt the tense atmosphere. Except for getting medicine for others, she spent the rest of the time with her head down and concentrated on grinding.
The sky was getting dark, and a few people had finished grinding a cart full of medicinal materials. It would not be safe for Yun Murou to go home any later.
Shen Yue asked Lu Zisu to send the person back, and she and the boy prepared all the powder into powder.
None of these medicines could be entered into public accounts. Shen Yue was counting the accounts and didn't even notice Luo Qingjiu's return.
As soon as Luo Qingjiu stepped in the door, she saw Shen Yue with her little head lowered, leaning on the counter, holding a brush in her hand and thinking about something.
Until Luo Qingjiu came closer, Shen Yue didn't notice him.
Luo Qingjiu felt a little strange.
After taking a closer look, I found that Shen Yue was checking the medicinal materials. Several ledgers were spread out on the table. No wonder she was so serious.
But when did Yi Yi Tang have a child?
The boy had never seen Luo Qingjiu, and he looked at Luo Qingjiu curiously.
Luo Qingjiu didn't pay too much attention. She walked straight to Shen Yue and called softly "Ah Yue."
Only then did Shen Yue realize that it was getting dark outside and Luo Qingjiu was back.
Seeing Luo Qingjiu's inquiring eyes scanning the boy back and forth, she thought about introducing him to Luo Qingjiu.
The words came to her lips but no sound came out. Only then did she realize that she didn't even ask the child's name.
Shen Yue collected the account book, walked up to the boy, and asked softly, "I've been so busy today that I forgot. What's your name?"
Hearing this, the boy showed a very nervous expression in front of Shen Yue for the first time, as if he didn't expect him to ask such a question.
After a long time, the boy didn't speak, and Shen Yue and Luo Qingjiu didn't know what was going on.
"I don't have a name. I only remember my grandfather, whose surname is Yu." The boy's little hands tightened slightly, and his voice became quieter and quieter. By the end of his words, there was no sound at all.
Seeing his increasingly disappointed expression, Shen Yue subconsciously reached out and touched the boy's head.
"Yu Ruo, Ruo with the prefix Cao, how about this name? Cao means Xiangyang."
Yu Ruo's eyes brightened because of Shen Yue's words, and her voice was light, as if she was asking herself, "Is it really okay?"
Shen Yue was close and had good ears, so she naturally heard it and said with a smile, "Why not?"
The three of them had dinner. Shen Yue and Yu Ruo signed the slave contract. In addition to Luo Mu's house, there were several spacious rooms in the backyard. Shen Yue found a room for Yu Ruo to live in until the medicine boys were filled. Will decide later.
That night, Yu Ruo was lying on the bed, looking at the moon hanging outside the window with a lot of thoughts in her heart, and asked herself, "Grandpa...did I do the right thing?"
…
The second day.
Yu Ruo got up very early, and even before Shen Yue woke up, he was already sitting on the steps of the backyard.
He couldn't sleep and didn't know what he should do, so he sat on the steps and waited for Shen Yue and the others to get up.
After Shen Yue and the others got up, she was slightly surprised to see Yu Ruo sitting on the steps.
When did this child get up? Don’t even children sleep?
She was very sleepy.
Shen Yue dove into the kitchen to wash up. After she finished washing up, Luo Qingjiu also served breakfast.
Shen Yue took a few quick bites, and Uncle Qin would come to get the potion soon.
To be on the safe side, she had to do an inventory again in advance.
Lu Zisu and Yun Murou didn't come, but Qin Lizheng came first.
Luo Qingjiu and Yu Ruo got into the car to move things while Shen Yue was counting them.
Finally, Shen Yue asked Qin Lizheng to check it again.
These should relieve the emergency, but of course they have to continue doing it.
Luo Qingjiu learned about this situation from Shen Yue yesterday, and before going out, she also told her that she might come back later today.
For a time, everyone entered a busy state.
The entire charity hospital was filled with a tense atmosphere.
Luo Qingjiu also started going out early and coming back late.
