648: Chapter 659: Really a Fellow Ti-traveler 648: Chapter 659: Really a Fellow Ti-traveler Gu Youyou said, “Yes, a dicine shop.
It doesn’t make sense for other pharmacies to go all the way to Yangguan City just to restock their dicines.
If we have our own pharmacy there, they could directly purchase from us.
As long as we control the market prices well, it could be a substantial inco, and it would be convenient for other pharmacies and dical establishnts too.”
Yue Rujing thought for a mont, then clapped her hands and said, “That’s a good idea, and we should hang the sign of Jisheng Hall too.
In the future, this brand will beco more and more renowned.”
“Of course,” Gu Youyou said with pride.
“Let’s start with one in Jinxiu City, it’s close and easier to manage.”
“Okay, I’ll have soone take care of it right away.”
…
After a busy day without a mont’s rest, Gu Youyou realized it was getting late, and she still had to fulfill Lin Qianqing’s requests.
“Grandma, Youyou is here to see you.” She brought so pastries she had made, a mix of hawthorn and yam, sweet but not cloying.
She had been aning to try making cream cakes when she had the ti, but Gu Youyou seed too busy to get around to it.
“Youyou, bringing this old lady sothing to eat again?”
Gu Youyou smiled as she set down the food box and said, “It’s a pastry made from yam and hawthorn.
Please try it.”
The old lady, smiling, picked up a piece, took a bite, and couldn’t stop praising it, “Not bad, it’s almost the sa as the pastries your mother made when she was little.”
“My mother could make these pastries?” Gu Youyou was utterly surprised.
People of that ti weren’t supposed to know how to make pastries from hawthorn and yam like this.
The old lady narrowed her eyes, her thoughts drifting off to the distant past.
She recalled her eldest daughter with both pride and heartache.
A child so bright, who passed away so young due to a tragic fate.
“She, from a young age, could do many unique things, especially making excellent pastries.
And then there was one made with milk, called what… cake?
The taste of that still makes my mouth water to this day.
It’s just a pity that ever since she passed, I’ve never t anyone else who can make cakes.
Sigh!
But of course, she invented it herself and never taught anyone else, so naturally no one else knew how.”
Gu Youyou was so shocked at this point that she was speechless.
Based on what she was saying, Gu Youyou’s unseen mother was also a ti-traveler?
No wonder she, a re village woman, could lead her family to prosper, the secret was all here.
Alas!
What a pity that she was killed by that scoundrel, Gu Lao San.
“Apart from making pastries, could my mother do anything else?”
The old lady beca animated as she spoke of her daughter, “She was smart from a young age, even smarter than your uncle, and could learn anything at first try.
My children, they are truly capable.
She took charge of our household at a young age, insisted on sending your uncle to private school.
Without her, we would have never thought about getting your uncle educated, and our family wouldn’t have the wealth we have today; we’d still be digging clay in the village.
Everyone profited from it, but she, she insisted on staying in Lotus Village to marry your father.
She had her own mind since she was little, and nobody could force her otherwise; we just let her be.
But who would have thought, she would end up in such a…”
Gu Youyou talked with the old lady a little bit more, and confird that her deceased stepmother was indeed a ti-traveler, and she had traveled back in ti while in the womb.
Being born different from ordinary people, the Lin family, the old lady, and the uncle were all influenced by her, with thoughts different from the people of ancient tis.
Seeing that it was getting late, Gu Youyou began to speak of more urgent matters.
