Chapter 177: Farewell
Ding Yuejun saw her daughter and Fei Erya coming over together, her face full of smiles, "Er Ya, quickly take your things to your room, later we’ll have a good meal."
This time, her daughter did so well in the exam, she naturally remembered Fei Erya’s help. If it weren’t for Er Ya staying over every night to tutor her daughter, her daughter wouldn’t have improved so quickly.
Fei Erya nodded and went to the room with her clothes.
Meanwhile, Yiyi saw her mother was busy and washed her hands, intending to help.
Seeing this, Ding Yuejun quickly waved her hand, saying, "Yiyi, you go rest, I’ve almost prepared everything. You two can wash your hands and eat directly later."
Yiyi saw it was indeed almost done, so she helped set the tableware.
With everything ready, the three happily started to eat.
During the meal, Yiyi mentioned to her mother about not having lunch at home the next day.
Ding Yuejun smiled upon hearing this, "Since Teacher Yang invited you to her place for lunch, you should buy some fruit tomorrow, have a proper sendoff, but luckily you both enrolled in universities in Shangjing, so you can still see each other often."
"Yes, so learning that Teacher Yang is going to Shangjing, it didn’t feel as sad anymore." Fei Erya nodded in agreement.
Thinking about the recent business at the pharmacy, Yiyi said, "Mom, I might be busy with Er Ya at the pharmacy these days, so I won’t have lunch with you guys. Er Ya and I will just stay at the pharmacy and eat with Mo Ping and them."
"Alright, then Suxin and I will just have something easy," Ding Yuejun nodded in agreement, but still reminded, "Yiyi, I’ve heard the pharmacy’s business is doing well recently, but you should also take care of yourself and not stay busy all day."
"Don’t worry, Mom, I’ve got it under control."
The next day, Yiyi took Fei Erya to Wuming Pharmacy.
As soon as Mo Ping saw Yiyi, he quickly approached and said, "Young boss, I’m glad you’re here at the pharmacy. Those pills you made a few days ago are almost sold out, so we’ll need you to make more."
Hearing this, Yiyi was quite surprised.
"What... they’ve almost sold out? But I made a lot before."
"Oh dear, my young boss, almost the entire Houshan Town is starting to sell our pills, so this shop needs some, and that shop wants a few, so they’ve run out."
Yiyi frowned upon hearing this. If this continued, it wouldn’t be feasible for her alone to keep making pills.
After thinking for a while, Yiyi directly instructed Mo Ping, "Mo Ping, from tomorrow, start looking for suitable places to build a factory. It seems we need to set up a pharmaceutical factory, otherwise, the supply of pills won’t meet demand."
"What... we really need to set up a factory? But we only have two types of pills, can a big factory really only produce two types of pills?"
In his opinion, having a factory to only produce two types of pills seemed a bit of an overkill.
"Don’t worry about that, other pills will also be produced gradually. At that time, we’ll label them with our Wuming Pharmacy’s name so everyone knows they’re our production."
Hearing Yiyi’s words, Mo Ping couldn’t help but begin to imagine.
Thinking about that scenario made him quite excited, "Young boss, that’s wonderful. In the future, when people mention whitening pills or something like that, they’ll know they’re from our Wuming Pharmacy. We won’t just sell pills in Houshan Town, we’ll promote them to the city, the province, and even all over the country."
By the end, Mo Ping was getting more and more excited, only feeling their future was bright.
Yiyi glanced at him and said, "For now, you should focus on how to source so many herbs."
"Don’t worry, young boss, I’ll make sure to source the herbs well. Besides, I’ve recently obtained a batch of seeds, I’ll give them to you shortly."
Hearing about the seeds, Yiyi was very happy.
"Give them to me now." Thinking of the thriving herbs in the space, she smiled. Once she had a variety of herbs, she could make some uncommon pills.
After getting the seeds, Yiyi took Fei Erya to the lab.
"Er Ya, now you handle these herbs, watch how I do it first." Handling herbs wasn’t difficult, so Yiyi was comfortable leaving it to Fei Erya.
Fei Erya watched Yiyi’s actions carefully. Once she memorized the process, she tried with a small amount of herbs and found it quite easy, smiling as she said, "Yiyi, next I’ll handle these."
"Okay, let’s give it our best together."
The two worked all morning, finally completing a small part, but many herbs remained, clearly showing Mo Ping expected Yiyi to produce a large quantity of pills this time.
Fei Erya finally believed Yiyi’s previous words about hiring people; it was clear they really needed assistance here.
Thinking about going to Jidong Island later, she clenched her fist slightly, determined to work hard and earn enough for the travel expenses.
"Alright Er Ya, let’s hurry to Teacher Yang’s place now to avoid being late."
"Okay."
Fei Erya tidied up a bit and left with Yiyi.
On their way, they bought bananas and apples at the fruit shop and headed straight to Yang Liu’s home.
"Yiyi, Er Ya, you’re finally here."
Seeing the two arrive, Yang Liu quickly invited them in.
Fang Cheng was there too, he greeted them with a smile and looked at Yiyi with curiosity, "I heard you reunited with the Chu family?"
"Yes, my grandmother was from the Chu family."
Fang Cheng had already heard about this, so he didn’t ask further. He was just surprised this young girl Yiyi was quite impressive, with such good medical skills and now connections with the Chu family. Her future surely seemed promising.
After Yang Liu brought out the final dish, lotus root and rib soup, she invited everyone to eat.
"Teacher Yang, I didn’t expect your cooking to be so good."
Fei Erya praised, tasting braised pork and couldn’t help complimenting.
Yiyi was also surprised by Yang Liu’s culinary skills, given Fang Cheng usually cooked, "Yes, it’s really delicious."
Seeing them compliment his wife, Fang Cheng happily said, "Liu’er’s skills are indeed excellent, much better than mine."
"I’ll cook more and it’ll become even better. When your university starts, on a weekend, I’ll cook for you again."
Yiyi, hearing this, smiled and said, "Then it’s a deal."
After the meal, Yiyi and Fei Erya bid farewell to Yang Liu and her husband.
"Teacher, Brother Fang, safe travels, we’ll meet in Shangjing."
