His son deserved a better girl, perhaps in the future, he could even marry a CEO’s daughter!

Ni Yan could not have imagined that Li Dongliang had such thoughts. She still replied with a heartful smile, “Hello, Uncle and Auntie, I’m going to buy some stuff from the pharmacy.”

Going to the pharmacy?

If she was really going to the pharmacy, why didn’t she stop there on her way? Why is she coming back instead?

She must be up to some shifty business.

A touch of ridicule flashed in Li Dongliang’s eyes.

Ni Yan was cycling very fast, and in a blink of an eye she slipped past the couple.

Qian Jinfeng curiously asked, “Hey, is that young girl the Ni Yan you’ve mentioned before? She’s quite polite, not at all like a girl from the countryside.”

People just arrived from the countryside are normally very shy, restrained, and humble, but Qian Jinfeng only saw confidence in Ni Yan’s demeanor.

And she was very beautiful.

Even though it was just a passing glance, Ni Yan had already impressed Qian Jinfeng.

Li Dongliang snorted, “That little girl has big plans!”

Qian Jinfeng was taken aback, “What do you mean?”

Li Dongliang then told Qian Jinfeng what he was thinking.

After hearing it, Qian Jinfeng’s face was full of astonishment.

“Li, I think your analysis makes sense! But don’t worry, our Xiaowei is not that shallow. He’s a sensible boy, even if Ni Yan has a little trick up her sleeve, Xiaowei won’t fall for her!”

Li Dongliang nodded his head.

Qian Jinfeng sighed, “I really didn’t expect that young girl to be like this, what on earth was her parents’ upbringing? Such a failure! Fortunately, our Xiaowei isn’t like that.”

Ni Yan arrived at the pharmacy.

She parked her bike at the entrance.

It was the critical period of Western medicine’s prevalence and the decline of Traditional Chinese Medicine, so there were no other customers in the Traditional Chinese Medicine store except the salesperson.

The salesperson greeted enthusiastically when he saw someone entering, “Hello comrade, what can I help you with?”

Ni Yan smiled and replied, “Could you please get me a kilo of dark plum, a kilo of hawthorn, a kilo of dried tangerine peel, a kilo of licorice, and a kilo of roselle flower?”

People usually purchase traditional Chinese medicine by grams, yet this young girl requested kilos…

The salesperson was stunned for a moment, then asked, “Young comrade, are you sure you want a kilo of each item?” Instead of ten grams?

Ni Yan nodded, “Yes, how much is it? I’ll pay first.”

“Wait a moment, let me calculate.” The salesperson picked up his abacus and started calculating.

Ni Yan glanced at the price list on the wall then said, “Five kilos of medicine should cost two yuan, four cents, and three mills.”

After saying that, Ni Yan took out the change from her pocket and placed it on the counter.

Two yuan, four cents, and three mills?

Could this young girl calculate so accurately?

She must be guessing, right?

The salesperson continued to operate his abacus suspiciously without looking up at Ni Yan.

However, a moment later, the salesperson was amazed at Ni Yan’s ability to calculate to the penny accurately when he saw the result on his abacus.

This young girl was indeed remarkable!

She calculated the exact amount right down to the penny!

The salesperson collected the money on the counter, weighed the medicine and handed it to Ni Yan, then asked curiously, “Young comrade, what do you need all this medicine for?”

Besides, these medicines can’t cure diseases, they can only be used as adjuvants in usual practice.

Ni Yan smiled and said, “Actually, it’s not really medicine. I’m using it to make a drink.”

“These medicines can be used to make a drink?” The salesperson was surprised.

Ni Yan nodded.

After buying the main ingredients for sour plum soup, Ni Yan went to the store again to buy some rock sugar and dried osmanthus flowers.

It wasn’t until two o’clock in the afternoon that Ni Yan returned home.

Ni Cuihua had been waiting at the doorstep.

Seeing Ni Yan cycling back, Ni Cuihua immediately went to meet her, “Yangyang, why are you so late today?” Ni Yan usually got home around 12 o’clock.

Ni Cuihua was so worried that Ni Yan could have met with some accidents.

Ni Yan smiled mysteriously, “I bought some interesting things.”

“What interesting things?” Knowing her daughter’s mischievous nature, Ni Cuihua couldn’t help but be a bit curious.

Ni Yan continued to maintain her mystery, “You’ll know tonight. By the way, where’s Yunyun?”

Ni Cuihua laughed, “Yunyun is sleeping. I’ve left you some food in the pot. You should go and eat first, I’ll tidy up these things for you..”
