Chapter 347 The Rich Older Men and Women
When Su Niannian took a look, she realized that it was indeed quite convenient.
To be honest, this military compound is quite far from the city center.
If she were to ride a bicycle, Su Niannian estimated it would take about two or three hours.
Having a car would be much more convenient.
In terms of timing, it's also quite good.
Su Niannian smiled and thanked the old lady.
Then, smiling, she said that she would be taking the 9 o'clock bus to leave.
Without wasting any time, Su Niannian began taking the pulses of the elderly women and men.
Su Niannian said that if she didn't finish watching it today, she could continue tomorrow.
"Miss Su, Chief Miao returned last night. I heard the wound was treated quite well and there was no infection at all."
"That's good." Su Niannian smiled.
Su Niannian knocked out Chief Miao yesterday, which was just a temporary measure. After all, it was extremely troublesome to keep him from touching this or that.
Although it wasn't Chief Miao's fault, it did add a lot of burden to the medical staff.
While they were chatting, Su Niannian had already finished taking their pulse.
For some cases of arthritis, Su Niannian would directly perform acupuncture.
At first, the elderly folks were a little worried that Su Niannian, being so young, might not be very good at acupuncture.
However, after Su Niannian's actions, she displayed a confident and composed demeanor.
This made the elderly men and women present think more highly of Su Niannian.
"I really didn't expect that this young girl would be so capable."
"You're absolutely right! I think this girl is simply amazing!"
A series of flattering voices reached Su Niannian's ears.
Su Niannian showed no arrogance, but simply smiled in response.
For some cases that acupuncture couldn't handle, Su Niannian wrote out a prescription for traditional Chinese medicine using paper and pen.
"Just get the medicine according to this prescription. Get six doses. After you finish them, come back to me for a pulse check, and I'll see how much it has improved," Su Niannian said with a smile, handing over the last prescription.
"Okay, okay, I'll come back to you after I finish this Chinese medicine." The aunt took the prescription and said with a smile.
After Su Niannian finished dealing with things, she got up to go back.
"Hey? Miss Su, you haven't collected your consultation fee yet." Su Niannian was stopped by an older woman.
Actually, Su Niannian came here to build a good relationship and never even thought about the consultation fee.
As a result, these elderly men and women all seemed to have plenty of money and insisted on paying Su Niannian for her medical consultation.
Su Niannian couldn't refuse.
Well, the elderly folks stuffed a lot of money into Su Niannian's hands.
Although they're only a few cents or a dollar, it's really not a small amount.
“Miss Su, there isn’t a doctor in this compound. It’s already very kind of you to keep your promise and come to treat us old folks. Otherwise, we would have to go to the military hospital.”
"Moreover, these are all age-related diseases that we suffer from, and the hospital can't really find anything wrong with them."
"So, don't refuse this money. Nobody here is short of a dollar or two," an old man said to Su Niannian.
Su Niannian nodded upon hearing this.
What I just saw mostly turned out to be age-related diseases, like rheumatism, arthritis, and so on.
Actually, applying medicated plasters to the affected area is best, but of course, taking traditional Chinese medicine is also an option.
Suddenly, a money-making idea exploded in Su Niannian's mind.
In this era, although the country explicitly prohibits doing business in private, there is one type of business that can be done openly and legitimately.
It's a business related to pharmaceuticals.
Thinking about it, Su Niannian's eyes brightened.
Perhaps Grandpa can help with this.
Once this business takes off, it might be more profitable than selling grain or braised meat.
Thinking it over, Su Niannian didn't continue to refuse. She nodded, responded to the old man and woman's words, and left with a smile.
It was only 8:30. Su Niannian went back to pick up Zhao Tian and Gu Ningning, and then they could go to the city.
Moreover, you don't need to ride a bicycle.
very nice.
When Su Niannian returned to the Gu family home, Gu Ningning was already waiting at the door.
Gu Ningning was filled with anticipation as they headed to a large shopping mall in downtown Beijing.
Over there, Zhao Tian had already cleaned the two bicycles and placed them in the yard.
“Sister-in-law, I just heard from the aunties in the compound that there are cars going to and from the city every day, so we don’t need to ride bicycles today,” Su Niannian said to Zhao Tian as soon as she entered the compound.
"There are other vehicles? What kind of vehicles? Like buses or public buses?" Zhao Tian had seen such vehicles on the road when she came from Kaoshan Village.
But I've never sat in it before.
"Mm!" Su Niannian nodded with a smile.
Then, he asked Gu's mother if she wanted to go shopping at the city mall with him, since there was a bus available.
Mother Gu quickly waved her hand.
"I'm worried about Zhendong and Yangyang at home, so you three go instead."
"Be careful, and come back as soon as possible," Gu's mother said with a smile.
Su Niannian thought that it wasn't really appropriate to leave Gu Zhendong and Yangyang at home alone, so she decided to take Gu's mother out for a visit another time.
Anyway, there will be plenty of time later.
There's no rush.
Su Niannian told Gu's mother the time she would be returning by car.
“I’m afraid I won’t make it on the 2 p.m. bus. If I take the 4 p.m. bus, I might be back later. Don’t worry, Mom.”
“We’ll bring some food back with us, so you don’t need to cook too much for dinner,” Su Niannian said with a smile.
Gu's mother said that she understood, and that there was no need to buy too many things, since Su Niannian was pregnant now, it was better not to bring so many things.
Seeing that it was almost time, Su Niannian smiled and set off with Zhao Tian and Gu Ningning.
Zhao Tian also took the basket that Su Niannian usually carried, and there were two coarse cloth bags inside. Gu Ningning said that she was all grown up now and she could help carry things.
Zhao Tian and Su Niannian smiled at each other.
A minibus was parked outside the gate of the family compound.
When Su Niannian, Zhao Tian, and Gu Ningning got on the bus, there were still a few seats available.
After finding a seat, I sat down.
Su Niannian was still unsure how much the fare would be for this trip.
I figured it should be around two cents.
As a result, no one came to collect the fare until the vehicle departed.
Su Niannian still felt a little strange.
Then she saw an older woman sitting in front of her turn around and chat with Su Niannian.
"This is a benefit provided by the military family compound; there's no transportation fee," the old lady said with a smile.
This old lady is the one Su Niannian just treated.
Now, when I go to the city, I plan to go to a traditional Chinese medicine shop to get the medicine according to the prescription given by Su Niannian.
"Oh, I see!" Su Niannian smiled and thanked the aunt for clearing up her confusion.
The car drove very smoothly the whole way.
After entering the city, the car stopped at a bus station.
It is located in a relatively bustling area.
There are shopping malls and state-run restaurants here.
