Before they knew it, the three-day period had arrived, and the Gu Family Medical Hall was set to reopen.
On this day, Gu Changsheng got up early, and after a rushed breakfast with everyone, she went to the medical hall to get busy.
The first task was to hang up the signboard again. As the old saying goes, a shop without a sign is no shop at all; whether it's a large store or a small one, even the roadside tea stalls would hang a cloth banner as a sign.
The Gu Family Medical Hall's signboard was well-preserved, stored in Uncle Song's house, where he would fondly wipe and cherish it daily. Against all odds, he had managed to polish the less-than-perfect wood to a glossy sheen. Yet, even so, one could tell at a glance that it was an old signboard with some years on it.
