Chapter 467: Letter from Hu Feng (10)
They then began to boil herbs again until nightfall came. The two were very tired, so they stopped and counted the ointment they made. They made more than 150 cans.
Bai Zhi said: “It’s too late to do more today. I will come early tomorrow morning, let’s try to do as much as possible so that they won’t rush us.”
Doctor Lu was very happy. He and Bai Zhi have the same idea. He would rather suffer early than to just be rushed.
Bai Zhi went home and ate a simple dinner. Then, she went to the third floor without even washing her face. The medicine stove was placed on the terrace. Zhou Awu helped her to set up everything she had to use. Everything was placed within her reach.
Zhou Xiaofeng came out of the small attic and saw her folding her sleeves. He asked: “Do you need help?”
Bai Zhi shook her head: “No, you can continue studying. I’ll do it myself.”
His uncle told him that the medicine Bai Zhi will do is medicine to save his father and General Fu. So, he wanted to help somehow, but looking at the things in front of him, he doesn’t know what to do. He can only stand on the side and do nothing.
Bai Zhi skillfully put the soaked medicinal herb into the furnace. However, not all the herbs were put altogether, some of them were put one at a time or boiled separately. The process was very long. Even after boiling the whole night, only a few medicinal herbs were completely boiled. When Bai Zhi saw the sky was getting brighter, she put down the work in her hands, then returned to her room to rest for a while. She got up when Zhao Lan called her to eat breakfast. Bai Zhi dragged her tired body to wash her face and change clothes. After breakfast, she rushed to Doctor Lu’s house to make an ointment.
Bai Zhi felt like she returned to modern times, rushing to do surgery day and night. Such a tiring day was too familiar to her, she thought she would never live a day like that again… …
So, life is still unpredictable!
Three days later, they finished making all the ointment, she also finished refining the medicine to fake death. She added some plant figments to the medicine to make it look the same as the ointment, and also put it in the cans that she took in Doctor Lu’s house, which enough to confuse the people.
Bai Zhi looked at the oxcart that was full of ointment and then asked: “Who will send these ointments to the barracks?”
Doctor Lu shook his head: “I don’t know, they didn’t say it. They only told me to make the ointments within 7 days. They didn’t say anything else.”
“Where shall we deliver them?” Bai Zhi asked.
Doctor Lu said, “In the Bai Caotang, this kind of business is being managed by Bai Caotang. It would be good if they give us some benefits after we deliver.”
Bai Zhi thought for a while, then went to the attic on the third floor to find a set of Zhou Xiaofeng’s clothes and then she combed her hair just like Zhou Xiaofeng. Due to long-term malnutrition, her body hasn’t developed yet. After putting on men’s clothing, coupled with her flat chest, she looked like a young man.
Bai Zhi took out her medicine bag and put all the contents in Lin Yang’s first-aid kit. And then, she left letters on Zhou Xiaofeng’s room, which contained several recipes of a medicinal diet. She asked Zhou Xiaofeng to give it to Boss Chen, to not delay the promotion of their new dishes.
When Doctor Lu saw Bai Zhi’s get up, he couldn’t help but laugh: “What are you doing? Why are you wearing men’s clothes? If your mother sees it, she will think that she has a son.”
Bai Zhi smiled and said, “They all went to the fields. No one will see such a blessing, it’s only exclusive for you.”
