He tried his best to stand on his tiptoes and search for Chu Qingzhi in the crowd. Soon, he saw a tall and beautiful figure.

He hurriedly ran over. “Sister Qingzhi, 1 heard them say that you’re a Divine Doctor?”

Chu Qingzhi raised her eyebrows. “I do know some medical skills. Why?”

Zhou Xiping’s eyes lit up as he looked at Chu Qingzhi expectantly. “1 want to ask you to help me take a look at my body to see why 1 can’t grow up.”

Because of his height, he had been mocked countless times.

His peers could pick him up with one hand. The humiliation was deeply etched in his mind. It tortured him like a nightmare. He dreamed of growing up.

Chu Qingzhi smiled. “Let me take your pulse.”

Zhou Xiping immediately rolled up his sleeves and showed his wrist.

Chu Qingzhi placed her slender and beautiful fingers on Zhou Xiping’s pulse and secretly sent her spiritual power into his body.

There were two types of dwarfism. One was hereditary and incurable. The other was secondary and curable.

After the checkup, Chu Qingzhi was glad to find that Zhou Xiping was the second type.

If it was the first one, even she couldn’t do anything about it.

“Wait a minute. 1 will go and write you a prescription.”

Zhou Xiping’s eyes lit up as he asked excitedly, “Sister Qingzhi, can my illness be cured?”

Chu Qingzhi smiled and said, “Sure. You’ll see the effect after taking the medicine for seven days.”

Zhou Xiping cried tears of joy. As he wiped his tears, he thanked her. “Thank you, Sister Qingzhi.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled at him. “Wait a moment.”

She returned to her room and wrote down the prescription. She walked out and handed it to Zhou Xiping. “Drink one bowl every morning and night for three years. It’s best if you don’t miss a day.”

Zhou Xiping was extremely excited. His hands trembled as he took the prescription. “Sister Qingzhi, 1 will always remember your kindness.”

No one knew how much he yearned to grow up. No one knew how painful it was to be shorter than everyone. But now, he could finally grow up.

After thanking Chu Qingzhi again, he ran to the county city to get the medicine as fast as he could.

Chu Qingzhi looked at Zhou Xiping’s cheerful back and couldn’t help but smile. This feeling… was quite good.

Shuiyun County.

Fuyuan Restaurant had a sworn enemy called Hongyan Restaurant.

Ever since Fuyuan Restaurant used the ice cream bars as a gimmick to attract customers, Hongyan Restaurant’s business had plummeted. Shopkeeper Qian was so worried that his hair turned white.

The shop assistant was worried that the restaurant’s business would not be good and that the shopkeeper would fire him. Hence, he took the initiative to suggest, “Shopkeeper, why don’t we learn from Fuyuan Restaurant?” Shopkeeper Qian immediately rejected it. “What’s there to learn? No matter how much you learn, you’ll only be imitating others. At that time, not only will you not attract customers, but you’ll also attract ridicule.”

The shop assistant said aggrievedly, “Then we can’t just sit around and wait for death, right?”

Shopkeeper Qian held his breath. “In any case, we can’t use Twelve Zodiacs ice cream bars.”

The shop assistant’s eyes suddenly lit up. “Shopkeeper, let’s use ice cream bars that look like cats, mules, and so on. How about that?”

Shopkeeper Qian said irritably, “I already said not to imitate others.”

The shop assistant looked at Shopkeeper Qian and lowered his head. Everything he said had been denied. It seemed that he was really going to be fired.

Shopkeeper Qian’s eyes suddenly lit up. “I’ve thought of a way.”

The shop assistant looked up and asked anxiously, “Shopkeeper, what is it?”

Shopkeeper Qian said excitedly, “Let’s go look for Miss Chu to buy some ice cream bars to sell in the restaurant. If people come to buy ice cream bars, perhaps, it will boost the business.”

The shop assistant nodded vigorously. “Shopkeeper, we can try this.”

After tidying up, Shopkeeper Qian set off.

In Chu Village.

Shopkeeper Qian asked the coachman to park the carriage at the entrance of the village and walked into the village.

As soon as he entered the village, he smelled a strange fragrance. He sniffed around and followed the fragrance to Chu Qingzhi’s house.

He was in the restaurant business for more than ten years and had a nose for delicacies. When he saw the steaming pots, he walked over. “What is this? It smells so good!”

Now, many families in the village were cooking rice dumplings at home, and the entire village was filled with fragrance.

In the courtyard, the people who were wrapping the rice dumplings heard Shopkeeper Qian’s voice.

Chu Eighth was closest to the door. She ran over and looked at Shopkeeper Qian with her dark eyes. She asked, “Who are you? What are you doing here?”

Shopkeeper Qian asked anxiously, “Tell me what you are cooking first.”

Chu Eighth rolled her eyes. “Rice dumpling. It’s delicious.”

“Rice dumpling?” Shopkeeper Qian looked up and thought for a moment. Then, he couldn’t help but laugh. He thought to himself that he was going to be rich.

A villager went to call Shen Ruyue. Shen Ruyue immediately walked out. “Aren’t you Shopkeeper Qian?”

When Shen Ruyue was working as a servant girl in the county, she often went to various restaurants to buy food for her madam, so she knew many shopkeepers.

Shopkeeper Qian felt that Shen Ruyue looked familiar. He thought about it and remembered. “Eh, aren’t you Madam Shen’s servant girl? Why are you here?”

Shen Ruyue smiled and changed the topic. “It’s a long story. Let’s talk about why you are here.”

Shopkeeper Qian hurriedly said, “Yes, yes, yes. Originally, I wanted to buy some ice cream bars from Miss Chu to sell at the restaurant, but there’s no need for that now. Can you sell some of your rice dumplings to me?”

Shen Ruyue said tactfully, “Someone has already bought all these rice dumplings. If Shopkeeper Qian wants it, I’ll have to ask Qingzhi.”

Shopkeeper Qian immediately said, “Quick, bring me to see Miss Chu.” He was counting on the rice dumplings to make a comeback. He had to convince Miss Chu.

Chu Qingzhi happened to walk out after finishing her work. “Who are you?”

The moment Shopkeeper Qian saw Chu Qingzhi, his fat body became as light as a swallow. With a whoosh, he arrived in front of Chu Qingzhi. “Miss Chu, I’m Shopkeeper Qian from Hongyan Restaurant. I have a small business to discuss with you.”

Chu Qingzhi was very happy to have business knocking on her door. She raised her hand. “Shopkeeper Qian, please come into the house.”

Shopkeeper Qian responded quickly, “Okay, okay, okay. Let’s talk in the room.”

Entering the central room, Shen Ruyue served tea. Then, she called Chu Xuhua over and sat at the side to listen.

Chu Qingzhi said politely, “Shopkeeper Qian, just say it.”

Shopkeeper Qian said without even drinking the tea, “Miss Chu, I want to buy rice dumplings.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled and said, “Shopkeeper Qian, someone has already bought this batch of rice dumplings. If you want to buy them, you have to wait three days.”

“Three days…” Shopkeeper Qian was relieved. As long as he could buy it, it was fine. “Miss Chu, how much is this rice dumpling?”

Chu Qingzhi said, “No bargaining. 25 copper coins each..”
