Changsheng's family settled down in the small courtyard, and Sixth Grandpa went back to busying himself with the opening of the shop in front.

Sixth Grandpa is old and has no ambitions. He only plans to open a small clinic, which can at least be a way to make a living.

Shen Rong was more enthusiastic about opening the shop than Sixth Grandpa. As soon as the child fell asleep, she sent the child to the main room and left him to Grandma Changsheng to look after. She and Changsheng went to the front to clean up.

The shop in front is quite spacious, slightly wider than the winter wing. On the left is the clinic, and on the right is a room for patients to rest, with a small bed inside. There is a row of tall medicine cabinets in the middle of the hall, and the cabinets are more than three feet wide from the wall behind. A small door is left on the wall behind to facilitate the family to enter and exit.

When Sixth Grandpa was in the village, he treated people and prescribed medicine for them. Therefore, he brought many kinds of medicinal materials from the village, as well as tools for processing the medicinal materials such as thunder planers, balance scales, grinding troughs, mortar buckets, and medicine buckets.

A few people put the medicinal materials into the newly built medicine cabinet one by one, and put the medicine grinders in place. The whole room then had the feeling of a medical clinic.

"When the plaque arrives tomorrow, our clinic will start dispensing medicine, so that people nearby can know that we have opened a medicine shop here. Changsheng's wife, what medicine do you think is more suitable for our clinic to prepare?"

Sixth Grandpa looked at the row of six-foot-high medicine cabinets in the middle of the lobby with satisfaction and said to Shen Rong.

Shen Rong wiped the sweat off her head, thought for a moment, and came up with an idea, "Grandpa, the weather is getting hotter, it would be very appropriate for our clinic to make some herbal tea to cool down the body."

Grandpa Liu stroked his beard and asked with a smile, "There are many recipes for this herbal tea. Which one do you think is the most suitable?"

Shen Rong pondered for a while, "Sanniang does know a few herbal tea recipes, the simplest of which are Cassia Seed Tea and Two Beans Drink. These two are easy to brew, require no skills, and are simple to use. If we provide these two kinds of tea, I'm afraid that others will think that our clinic is insincere and perfunctory, and then it will be of no use to our clinic.

Sanniang thinks that since we are going to do it, we should not be afraid of trouble.

I saw that my grandfather's prescriptions also included honeysuckle detoxification tea, mulberry chrysanthemum tea, monk fruit five-flower tea, etc. These herbal teas are all made from several kinds of herbs.

Honeysuckle detoxifying tea has the effects of reducing internal heat, promoting salivation and detoxifying. It is made from honeysuckle, selfheal, dandelion, white chrysanthemum, raw earth and houttuynia cordata. However, the smell of houttuynia cordata is too strong and many people are not used to it, so this herbal tea is not the first choice.

There is also mulberry and chrysanthemum tea? Put mulberry leaves, white chrysanthemums and licorice in a pot and boil them. This tea can clear the liver and improve eyesight, clear the lungs and moisten dryness, and it also has a certain effect on wind-heat. However, the chrysanthemum is slightly bitter. If you want this tea to taste good, it is better to add some sugar.

But in this way, adding sugar will increase the cost invisibly, which is not cost-effective.

My favorite is Luo Han Guo Wu Hua Tea.

Luo Han Guo moisturizes the lungs, and is combined with the "five flowers" that clear away heat, purge fire, detoxify and remove dampness: honeysuckle, chrysanthemum, locust flower, kudzu flower, and kapok flower.

The aroma of Wuhuahua is quite strong, the taste of monk fruit is sweet, the boiled soup is golden yellow and looks great.

The most important thing is that, except for Kapok and Momordica, the other four flowers are common in our village and are available in our clinic, so the cost is also reduced.”

The place where they were was the land of ancient Chu. Luo Han Guo and Kapok were further south, and both of them needed to be purchased from medicinal herb merchants.

However, these two are not rare medicinal materials and their prices are not high.

What's more, one Luo Han Guo can make a large pot of tea, and the dosage is less than that of other ingredients such as Cassia seed and Erdou drink.

The most important thing is that monk fruit tastes sweet, which saves the cost of adding sugar. Both the elderly and children like to drink it.

It can be said that Shen Rong has taken every aspect into consideration.

Sixth Grandpa looked at Shen Rong with a look of satisfaction, "You can think so carefully and choose the most suitable one from these prescriptions. It shows that you have put a lot of effort into it."

Shen Rong was delighted and was about to speak when Changsheng beside her immediately said, "Changsheng also put in a lot of effort."

As he spoke, he pointed to the neatly cut stack of oil paper in front of him.

These oil papers are used to wrap medicinal materials. When they are taken from the paper shop, they are large pieces of oil paper, which need to be cut into pieces with a length and width of about a foot.

After Changsheng finished moving the things, he sat there cutting oil paper.

"Changsheng did a great job too!" Sixth Grandpa continued to praise.

After being praised by his grandfather, Changsheng's face immediately broke into a smile, and he worked even harder.

Shen Rong looked at Changsheng who was full of energy and laughed secretly.

Everyone in the family knows that Changsheng likes to hear people praise him. If you want him to help do something, just open your mouth and praise him, and Changsheng will run to do it happily.

If Changsheng was just like this, Shen Rong and his grandparents would inevitably worry that Changsheng would be cheated by others outside.

But who can blame Changsheng for being a person who can't hear what others say?

If the outsider is not considered as one of Changsheng's friends, Changsheng will ignore him even if he talks too much, let alone do anything to help him.

Therefore, because of Changsheng's personality, Shen Rong and his grandparents never worried that Changsheng would be deceived into doing this or that and suffer losses.

After cleaning up the shop in front, Shen Rong looked at the sky. Seeing that it was getting late, she turned back to the backyard to check on the children.

When Changsheng saw Shen Rong leave, he immediately came back to his senses from his grandfather's praise. Thinking that he seemed to have not seen the two children for some time, he followed her back to the backyard.

Shen Rong had just come out of the back door and walked around the screen wall when she heard a child crying from the main room opposite.

She immediately quickened her pace and headed towards the main room, but she never expected that Changsheng would rush past her and enter the main room in the blink of an eye.

Shen Rong was both angry and amused. Just as she walked out of the door, before she had time to go back in, Changsheng strode out from inside, holding his still howling daughter.

"My daughter is hungry." Changsheng looked at Shen Rong anxiously.

The little guy looked at his mother again, and after seeing Shen Rong, he seemed to remember that he was still hungry. His mouth became even more puffy and his voice became louder.

As the crying got louder, the wailing of the son in the room became louder.

Shen Rong quickly took the child and said, "I'm going to go back to the house to feed him first. You bring your son back and remember to thank grandma."

Changsheng nodded, "Oh!"

Shen Rong went into the house, wiped the sweat off her body with clean water, and then began to feed her daughter.

After a while, Changsheng came over with his son in his arms, sweating profusely.

When Pingping saw his biological mother, he immediately became excited. He didn't even care about crying. His hands and feet kept moving. He looked like he wanted to leave his father's arms and return to his mother.

But Changsheng didn't understand what his son meant. He saw his son kicking and waving his hands, and thought his son was playing with him. Changsheng imitated his wife and started playing with his son by saying "oh" and "oh".
