Chapter 86 Red Star Milk Powder and Seminar

Wang Mengde did not refuse the milk powder given by Pu Lao.

This is indeed what he needs most now. What's more, he and Pu Lao are master and disciple. He will remember this favor in his heart and there will be many opportunities to repay him in the future.

When he got home from get off work and took out four cans of milk powder, Ran Xiaomei hurriedly asked:

"Meng De, where did this milk powder come from?"

It is not easy to buy milk powder on the market now. Ever since she found out her daughter-in-law was pregnant with twins, she has been asking people to look for channels to buy milk powder.

Unfortunately, the feedback was not ideal. If you only needed one or two cans, you could still buy them. But if you needed several cans every month, that would not be possible.

"Mom, this was given to me by Mr. Pu." Wang Mengde explained.

"Oh, that's great. It's Red Star brand milk powder. Meng De, you should thank Mr. Pu very much. The child is still young, so you should save these cans. They will be enough for two or three months." Ran Xiaomei carefully picked up a can of milk powder, took a look at it, and then said excitedly.

Red Star brand milk powder, launched in 1952, is the first milk powder brand in China after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

"Yes, I remember it all. Oh, Mom, Mr. Pu said that there will be four cans every month, which will be enough for the two children."

"There are four cans every month. That's enough." Ran Xiaomei said happily.

She has been worried these days, thinking that her two grandsons' appetites have grown and her daughter-in-law's milk is not enough, so she wonders where to buy some goat milk.

Now it’s all right. I’ll have four cans of milk powder every month, and my two grandchildren won’t go hungry anymore.

He Shengnan, who heard the noise, also stuck her head out of the bedroom and looked into the living room. She was very happy to see the milk powder on the table.

These days, thanks to adequate nutrition, her face has regained the baby fat she had before childbirth.

Ran Xiaomei prepared delicious food for her in different ways every day. Not only was there enough eggs, but she also had spare ribs, pork liver, and pork kidneys every day, as well as crucian carp soup and old hen soup, which she stewed in a pot every few days.

The neighbors in the yard were so greedy that they were drooling.

Just when Wang Mengde wanted to go into the bedroom to check on his two sons, his cousin's voice came from outside the door: "Mengde, are you home?"

"Cousin, you are here, come in quickly."

When I opened the door, I saw my cousin holding two old hens in one hand and a bamboo basket covered with a piece of cloth in the other.

After entering the house and taking the two chickens from his hands, Ran Xiaomei complained, "Meng Wei, these are the old hens that lay eggs at home, right? Why did you bring them here? You can buy them in the city for a little money."

"Aunt, there is nothing else at home, just a few chickens and eggs." Wang Mengwei said with a smile.

"Oh, there are fifty eggs in the basket, and a bottle of sesame oil. Grandma told my mom to eat these first and ask her to send some more over in a few days."

Then he lifted the cloth on the bamboo basket and carefully took out a bottle of sesame oil from next to the eggs.

I looked at the eggs inside again and found that none of them were broken, so I felt relieved.

"Go back and tell mom and sister-in-law that there is no shortage of these in the city. Keep the old hens for laying eggs, and the eggs as well, to supplement the nutrition of the family."

Ran Xiaomei put the old hen with its legs tied by the door and gave instructions.

"Aunt, at the beginning of the year, grandma heard that my sister-in-law was pregnant, so our family raised several more chickens this year. These are to provide her with nutritional supplements," Wang Mengwei explained.

"Okay, okay, now that you've got it, keep it. Cousin, stay in the city for one night. I'll take you to the station tomorrow morning." Wang Mengde said when he saw the two people pushing and shoving each other.

"Yes, dinner is almost ready, don't leave today." Ran Xiaomei said as she prepared to go to the kitchen cabinet to get a few more steamed buns with two-mix flour and heat them in the pot. With one more worker, the steamed buns just now would definitely not be enough to eat.

"Aunt, stop busying yourself. The corn and soybeans at home are waiting for me to go back and harvest. I have to catch the next bus. We won't eat here this time." Wang Mengwei hurriedly stopped her.

"You kid, you finally come here, but you don't even eat here." Ran Xiaomei said somewhat unhappily.

But she also knew that the autumn harvest in rural areas was very important and every second counted, so she didn't persuade them any further.

"Come over in the morning next time. It's just right for you to finish lunch before going back. Wait a moment, I'll pack you some food and some steamed buns to eat on the way."

As he spoke, he quickly took out four steamed buns made of two-kneaded flour, filled a cloth bag with more than a pound of fried dough sticks, some cakes and snacks.

Then he took the eggs out of the bamboo basket and put the cloth bag in.

"Meng De, ride your bike to take your cousin to the station."

Wang Mengwei was not polite. He took the bamboo basket and went out of the yard with Wang Mengde.

When they arrived at Deshengmen, a bus just came. While he was not paying attention, Wang Mengde bought a ticket for his cousin.

That day, just as he arrived at the clinic, Pu Lao came in and said to him, "Meng De, I won't be seeing patients today. Pack up and go with me to the exchange seminar later."

"Yes, sir." After agreeing, Wang Mengde carefully checked the materials again and then put them into a bag.

In the institute's special car, Wang Mengde sat in the passenger seat with his bag, and Pu Lao sat in the back seat.

"Sir, what is the nature of this exchange and seminar?" He couldn't help asking as the car started moving.

Mr. Pu mentioned this exchange and seminar a few days ago, but did not elaborate on the specific content.

“This seminar was originally an internal exchange meeting initiated by Western medicine. Dean Lu happened to know about it and asked for a place for me.

At that time, I will be needed to go on stage to share my experience in traditional Chinese medicine. After all, learning is mutual.

This is an attempt by the hospital. You may have heard that the dean said at a meeting a few days ago that he wanted to promote the research work of combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine. "

Mr. Pu gave a rough explanation.

"In this meeting, are we the only representatives of traditional Chinese medicine, and the others are all from Western medicine?"

"In addition to us, some doctors from other traditional Chinese medicine hospitals have also been invited to participate. I estimate that there will be about ten traditional Chinese medicine doctors participating."

"Will there be any chance of sabotage?" Wang Mengde asked again.

In his previous life, he had seen many cases of mutual sabotage. Academic disputes were also very cruel, no less than wars, and it was a life-and-death struggle.

"Haha." Pu Lao sneered: "It is certain that they will sabotage each other. After all, both factions wish the other side to perish. But don't worry, I have seen all kinds of storms over the years.

When it comes to insulting people, I am their forefather. Who will be the one to tear down whom? Meng De, if you encounter this kind of situation in the future, don’t be soft-hearted. "

"Sir, don't worry. With your words, I know what to do." Wang Mengde said hurriedly.

When he arrived at the place, got out of the car, and was slowly walking towards the venue, he suddenly saw an unexpected person appear here.
