Be gentle

Chapter 7

Cold air hit City H this week, and the ground was already frozen in the morning.Probably because the weather is getting colder and everyone is reluctant to go out, the business of the restaurant has been a little deserted recently.

It started to snow at noon, and it turned into sleet in the evening, and the ground quickly became muddy.

The proprietress has always been very concerned about the food of the Bai family. She never delays when she is usually busy, and naturally she will not procrastinate today when she is free.

"Huaran, please send the dinner from the pharmacy first, lest it get cold later."

Because there is only Bai Wenxue alone these days, the amount of dinner is slightly less.When Huaran saw the dinner, she knew that Bai Shuyi would not be here tonight, so she couldn't help but feel a little bit disappointed.

She doesn't have any recreational activities on weekdays, at most she just finds time to read books, so every time she meets Bai Shu, she can be very happy when she speaks a few words.

The distance of a road is not far, you can walk in a few minutes.The glass door of the pharmacy was covered with fog, and at first glance it was impossible to see what was going on inside.

"Aunt Bai, I'm here to bring you dinner..." The pharmacy was quieter than usual, the doorbell sounded very abrupt, Huaran didn't hear the answer, she wondered and walked towards the counter, "Aunt Bai?"

Then, she saw a scene that was enough to make people shudder.

Bai Wenxue lay on the ground without any reaction, and there seemed to be some blood on her forehead.

Huaran was taken aback, hurriedly put away the things in her hands, and walked into the counter.

"Aunt Bai, Aunt Bai?" She didn't dare to touch Bai Wenxue casually, so she could only confirm whether she was still conscious, took her hand and said softly, "Aunt Bai, if you can hear me, shake my hand hand."

There was a faint but distinct force in his hand.

Huaran breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Aunt Bai, I don't know what's going on with you, so I dare not touch you. May I call an ambulance for you? Well, you can shake my hand too."

Huaran's grandfather had a stroke, so she was worried that Bai Wenxue was in the same situation.

There was no response in hand.

Huaran was a little anxious, but she didn't dare to delay any longer. She got up and wanted to make a phone call, but Bai Wenxue took her hand.

"Aunt Bai, do you want me to help you up?"

The strength in her hands was not light, and it was only then that Huaran realized that things didn't seem so bad.

"Help, help me..." Bai Wenxue finally made a sound, which sounded a little weak, but very clear.

Huaran suddenly remembered that Bai Shuyi had said before that Bai Wenxue had Meniere's syndrome, so she hurriedly knelt down and gently helped her onto the reclining chair.

Bai Wenxue lay down on the chair with her eyes closed and didn't make a sound. Hua Ran was afraid that her condition would deteriorate and that she would disturb her by making a sound, so she had to hold her hand and wait beside her.

Bai Wenxue also seemed to know that she was worried about him, and gently held her back, as if telling her that she was fine.

It took about ten minutes for Bai Wenxue to finally open her eyes.Hua Ran kept silent, just looked at her anxiously.

"Aunt Bai..."

"I'm fine, I've got an old problem..." Bai Wenxue did look better, but the wound on her forehead was still a little shocking, "Xiaoran, help me get some medicine, An Ding and Phinagan."

"Okay, Aunt Bai, lie down properly, and I'll help you get it."

These two medicinal white books were specially placed in a very conspicuous place, and Huaran found it without much effort.After pouring hot water, I fed Bai Wenxue some medicine, and helped her treat the wound on her head. It was already six o'clock before I knew it.

Probably because of the dinner time and the bad weather outside, no one went into the store to buy medicines during the period.

"Xiaoran, I'm sorry to keep you so long." Although Bai Wenxue often helps others, she doesn't like to trouble others.

"Aunt Bai, don't say that, are you feeling better now?" Huaran was still in shock.

Because of her grandfather's serious illness, she has a physical fear of getting sick, whether it's her own or someone else's.

"I'm much better, you go back, I'm fine."

Huaran shook her head, "Aunt Bai, I'll stay with you until Xiaobai comes back. I'll go and ask for a leave of absence from the lady boss."

Just as Bai Wenxue wanted to refuse, she seemed to think of something, nodded and said, "Alright, I'll just call her and talk to her, thank you."

Huaran has been in a state of tension and worry just now, and she acted without thinking at all.Now that the emergency situation is over, I suddenly find that I have to be alone with Bai Wenxue, and I can't help but feel awkward.

"No, don't say that, Aunt Bai, you and Xiaobai helped me a lot before..." She was quiet and introverted, and she would never be able to take such a proactive action in normal times.After being thanked, his face was flushed and he was restless.

Bai Wenxue didn't say anything, first called the proprietress, and then asked Huaran to sit beside her.

Huaran said that she wanted to accompany Bai Wenxue, but she never thought about what to do with someone.Normally, Bai Shuyi would drag her to chat, while she and Bai Wenxue were always polite.So although he is not a stranger to him, he has not spoken a few words at all.

After Bai Wenxue's symptoms eased, she seemed to be in better spirits. At this time, she watched Huaran gently and took the initiative to open up the topic.

"Xiaoran, I think you were very organized in dealing with injuries just now. Have you ever been in contact with this aspect?"

Huaran gradually heard a lot about Bai Wenxue from the proprietress, respected her from the bottom of her heart, and answered her very sincerely.

"My grandfather is an old doctor of Chinese medicine, and later got seriously ill. I took care of him so I know a little bit."

Because of his daughter's closeness to Huaran, Bai Wenxue asked the proprietress a little about her family's situation.Compared with Bai Shuyi, she actually knows more about Huaran.

But because the proprietress only knew that Huaran's family was poor, she didn't know much about it.

"So it's like this..." Bai Wenxue had a good impression of Huaran, one was because her daughter was close to others, and the other was that she was neither arrogant nor impatient, and she was a stable person.It's just that after all, the time of acquaintance is short, and she doesn't know the specific situation of him, so she never talked too much.

However, it was different after this incident happened at night.Although her old problem is not life-threatening for the time being, what is important is Huaran's attitude of helping her without hesitation.Seeing that the other party seemed to have some foundation, her mind couldn't help floating.

"Then have you ever studied Chinese medicine with your grandfather?"

Bai Wenxue asked clearly, but Huaran didn't know what it meant, and said honestly: "I know some Chinese medicine, and I learned a little bit of massage from my grandfather."

Bai Wenxue nodded, stood up and walked towards the traditional Chinese medicine area.She studied Chinese medicine at the beginning, and she also got a certificate of practicing Chinese medicine pharmacist, so although Chinese medicine can hardly make money now, she still opened up such an area in her small shop.

"Aunt Bai?" Huaran was a little flustered when she saw her get up.

Bai Wenxue's illness came and went quickly, and the symptoms passed and were no different from ordinary people, so there is no serious problem at this time.

"Don't be nervous, I'm fine." She took out a few Chinese medicines and brought them to Huaran for her to identify, "Can you recognize them?"

Huaran hadn't been exposed to these things for a long time, but after all, she had been fascinated by them since she was a child, so she recognized them quickly at this time.

"Sanqi, wolfberry, angelica and sealwort, right?"

Bai Wenxue looked very satisfied, she nodded and gave her a thumbs up to praise her. "Yes, Xiaoran, you are great."

She praised people as if she was complimenting a child, and Huaran was both shy and happy when she heard it. "No... Aunt Bai, these are relatively simple..."

"Xiaoran, do you know that Auntie's shop is always recruiting people?"

Huaran had heard about this incident, but never paid much attention to it.Although her grandfather was an old doctor of Chinese medicine, she was still young at that time, so she just followed by to help out.Grandpa has always told her to study hard, so she never consciously put her energy on these things.

But later, her grandfather was seriously ill, and the family was too poor to go to the hospital, so she dug out his book and gnawed it whole.It's just that without the guidance of grandpa, traditional Chinese medicine doesn't have much effect on stroke and other diseases, and she thinks it's just a psychological comfort.

At this time, Bai Wenxue talked to her about this, even if Huaran was dull, she understood what she meant.

"I know...but Aunt Bai..."

Seeing that she understood what she meant, Bai Wenxue didn't ask her to reply immediately, but just said, "Xiao Ran, have you thought about what will happen in the future?"

When asked about the future, Huaran couldn't help showing a confused look.After selling all the last belongings of the family, she is still carrying a foreign debt of 10,000+. If it weren't for the village head to help her as a guarantee, she would have sold herself as a mortgage long ago.

If she works in a restaurant like she is now, she may not be able to pay off the money in more than ten years.But let her do other things, and she really doesn't know what else she can do - she already knows that she would rather die than sell her body.

Bai Wenxue sighed, lightly touched Huaran's shoulder and said, "Aunt Bai has been watching you for a while. Although she doesn't know your family situation, she thinks she has good eyesight. You are hardworking and smart. , and you still have a little foundation, Aunt Bai's place should be very suitable for you."

"But, but I haven't even graduated from high school... I don't have any experience in this field..."

A place like a pharmacy is too sacred for Huaran. In her opinion, how can a waiter like her be competent in such a highly professional profession?

"These are not important. In fact, selling medicine is not as difficult as you imagined. As long as you are willing and willing to study hard, there are ways to do it."

Bai Wenxue looked so amiable, and her words were so gentle and kind, and looking at this bright and clean drugstore, Huaran was really moved.
