Chapter 216 Say thank you to him
Guan Jing returns to Huichun Hall.
It was already evening and all the customers in the medicine hall had dispersed.
The old man seemed to have just finished his work. He was sitting on the chair behind the counter, looking tired.
Guan Jing took a closer look at her grandfather, only to find that he didn't know when he started. His face was sallow, his hair was pale, and his expression was full of exhaustion.
Obviously, opening a store for a long time is a considerable workload for this 80-year-old man.
Guan Jing felt distressed for no reason.
"Grandpa." Guan Jing called and walked in the door.
Old man Guan opened his eyes and glanced at Guan Jing, half-jokingly: "You know you're coming back, I thought you ran away with some wild man."
Old man Guan was originally looking at Guan Jing. Guan Jing is old and a little sad.
Unexpectedly, the old man would tease her.
She immediately tilted her mouth.
"Well, you bad old man, Brother Ming has prepared good things for you, and you actually called him a wild man!"
Guan Jing also made a joke.
Actually, Cheng Ming did not say that the pills were for the old man, but the little girl was quite good at speaking up for her boyfriend.
Even if her boyfriend is not here, she will try her best to make his image better in front of her family and give Cheng Ming extra points.
That’s why she said yes. This medicine was specially prepared for the old man.
Old man Guan became a little interested: "That boy Cheng Ming? What good things does he have for me?"
"Here, that's it." Guan Jing spread her hands, and there was something on her palm. A black pill.
"What is this?" the old man asked.
"The tonic is very tonic." Guan Jing thought for a while and said.
She didn't want to explain what the pill was, because it sounded like a pill in a fantasy novel, and it was too difficult to explain, so she just said it was a tonic, which was more conventional.
But after saying this, the old man obviously didn’t care very much.
"Forget it, don't waste it." The old man said, "Old man, I am already eighty-three, or eighty-four? I have already taken enough tonic."
"Take it. It’s better to give it to your dad.”
Guan Jing said helplessly: "Grandpa, just give it a try. Brother Ming has worked hard to make this!"
She wanted to persuade her grandfather to take it because of the rarity of the medicine.
Unexpectedly, the more he said this, the more the old man refused to eat.
"Since it's precious, there's no need to waste it on me. Besides, old man, my current body is too weak to be replenished. You yourself are a student of Chinese medicine. Don't you understand this?"< br>
“Grandpa!” Guan Jing was a little anxious.
"Brother Ming's heart and soul, I promised him that he must let you eat it. Do you really want to let him down? There is no harm anyway, just eat it quickly!"
Seeing that my granddaughter is a little bit Urgent.
The old man had no choice but to take the pill from her hand and take it.
Guan Jing didn't move away, she just sat in front of him, waiting to see the effect of his medicine.
Five minutes later.
The old man Guan, who had been resting with his eyes slightly closed, suddenly widened his eyes.
He seemed to have noticed the changes in his body at this time.
He looked at his granddaughter: "What did you feed me? Could you have given me some poison?"
"What are you thinking about, old man!" Jing first laughed and cursed, then asked, "Do you feel a little pain in the muscles and ligaments?"
"Pain? Not really, just a little fever and then a little numbness." Old Man Guan said.
Guan Jing was very surprised.
Just a little numb?
Is it different from her and Cheng Ming?
Is it because of a special constitution?
Probably not.
This is Chinese medicine, not Western medicine. Chinese medicine is made from dozens of medicinal materials, so there should be no special reactions.
"Maybe it's because grandpa is old and the medicine is not very effective?"
After thinking about it, I'm afraid this is the only possibility. Because Guan Jing observed her grandfather for more than ten minutes, and then she asked the old man Guan. The old man replied that the numbness had disappeared, but he was just a little hot.
Her guess is probably correct.
As the old man is getting older, the absorption efficiency of his stomach and body is not as good as that of young people. This is normal.
After thinking about this, Guan Jing felt a bit regretful.
The effect of the medicine is not very good, which means that the improvement effect on grandpa’s physical fitness is not as good as that of young people.
But it’s pretty good. It’s better than nothing.
Not long after.
The old man was shocked by his own changes.
He glared at Guan Jing and asked, "Girl, what you just gave me was a stimulant, right?"
He found that his fatigue had completely disappeared!
How is this possible?
When he is usually so busy, he can't get up even if he doesn't lie in bed for two hours.
It's only been ten minutes now, and the fatigue on his body has completely disappeared? And I feel better than ever!
Guan Jing was speechless and asked: "You have been a pharmacist for decades, don't you know the ingredients in the pills just by smelling them? How can a Chinese patent medicine contain any stimulants?"
Old Man Guan was shocked: "Really?"
"Of course not!"
In fact, Old Man Guan also knew!
He just found it too unbelievable!
He knows very well that the reason why Chinese medicine is not as widely used as Western medicine is because Chinese medicine is slow to take effect and cannot compare with Western medicine.
When patients are in pain, they will naturally trust whose medicine has immediate effect.
So most people believe in Western medicine.
As for Chinese medicine, it is somewhat illusory.
Now, a Chinese patent medicine, or a tonic, can actually have such good and fast effects!
It’s simply amazing.
Forgive me, the old man, for being so speechless!
"This, how is this done?" The old man seemed to be asking Guan Jing, but also seemed to be talking to himself.
“I don’t know either. Anyway, Brother Ming gave me the medicine. It should be a new formula he developed himself, right?”
"Of course he researched it! This kid is the only one with this ability!"
The old man actually admired Cheng Ming.
In his opinion, this kid Cheng Ming is not very young, but he has an incredible wealth of pharmacological knowledge!
Create so many powerful potions!
Even an old pharmacist like Old Man Guan has to admire him!
So before Guan Jing's parents met Cheng Ming, the old man had already put in a good word for Cheng Ming in front of the Guan couple!
When Cheng Ming came to Guan’s house for the first time, the atmosphere was so harmonious, in fact, the old Guan played a major role!
“My brother Ming is great, isn’t he?” Guan Jing said proudly.
The old man glared at her angrily and said nothing.
"By the way, grandpa, you can take this medicine as long as you know it. Don't leak it." Guan Jing suddenly remembered what Cheng Ming said before and immediately reminded her grandpa.
The old man was speechless.
"Old man, I am so old, do you still need to tell me this truth?"
After that, he got up from the Taishi chair and started to clean up the pharmacy and prepare to close.
Guan Jing quickly went up to stop him.
"Grandpa, you are tired, let me come."
However, Guan Jing was stopped by Old Man Guan.
“With the medicine you gave me, I’m not tired at all! You should be talking on the phone soon, right? Go and say thank you to your wild man for me.”
