030: What's the purpose

Chu Qing nodded, "The slaves and maids are all bought!"

This time, Xiao Ziyu needed a lot of medicinal materials, and spent a lot of money before and after. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although Chu Qing didn't understand what Xiao Ziyu was doing with so many medicinal materials, she didn't ask.

If the lady needs it, she has her own reason.

However, what Chu Qing couldn't understand the most was that Xiao Ziyu actually ordered her to buy a lot of green plums, and even pickled them herself.

She remembered that Xiao Ziyu didn't like sour snacks since she was a child.

How could she suddenly pickle these green plums? Or in a way she had never seen before.

Xiao Ziyu said, "You and Chu Xue will send the medicinal herbs to the Tinglan Pavilion together!"

After speaking, Xiao Ziyu got up and walked outside the house.

Over the years, the Pavilion has been empty and uninhabited.

Xiao Ziyu told Mama Cao that he needed a spacious place to concoct medicinal materials. After obtaining Qiao's consent, Mama Cao packed up the Tinglan Pavilion for Xiao Ziyu to use.

After being called Tinglan Pavilion, it was Xiao Ziyu's study.

Compared with the fact that almost all the trees in the crape myrtle garden are in sight, the Tinglan Pavilion is much more empty.

From the crape myrtle garden to the Tinglan Pavilion, you have to pass through the small garden of the west courtyard.

On the right side of the small garden there is a pond with a few plum trees planted next to the rockery.

At this time, it is about to enter autumn, and the leaves of the plum tree are no longer as tender and green as in midsummer, and there are a few plums scattered on the branches, which is quite desolate.

The breeze carries the scent of plums, and the plum trees are reflected on the water.

Why, she actually felt familiar.

Xiao Ziyu stood for a while, and couldn't help but lose his mind.

"Ah, isn't this the seventh sister?" The female voice that suddenly appeared disrupted Xiao Ziyu's thoughts.

Xiao Ziyu raised his head and saw a girl in a goose yellow dress standing not far away.

The girl combed her double bun and put a green hosta hairpin.

She was born fair, and the fly in the ointment was that there were a few acne on her cheeks, and although she was covered with a thick layer of powder, she could still see a lot of brown acne marks, which was quite weird.

Seeing that Xiao Ziyu didn't speak, she said, "Seventh sister is really a noble person who forgets things, doesn't she remember me?"

The girl smiled and approached Xiao Ziyu.

Chu Qing and Chu Xue, who were standing behind Xiao Ziyu, immediately saluted, "I've seen the fourth miss!"

The girl in front of Xiao Ziyu is Xiao Zikite, the fourth lady of the Xiao family.

Xiao Ziyu glanced at the two maids standing behind Xiao Ziyu, and then smiled.

She continued, "Seventh Sister is really idle, where did she pick so many herbs, can you sell them for a good price?"

The Gu family makes a living by collecting medicines, and the Gu family often does needlework and even privately collects medicines to subsidize the Gu family. Xiao Ziyuan's biological mother is Aunt Wan, and Aunt Wan is a person who goes there wherever it is lively, so she naturally knows about the Gu family's subsidy for the Gu family.

Xiao Ziyuan did not hide the sarcasm in her words.

Xiao Ziyu was not angry, she said calmly, "Fourth Sister is not an ignorant person, how can she not even distinguish medicinal materials? Fortunately, there is no doctor here today, otherwise they would mistakenly think that Fourth Sister has no ink on your chest!"

When Xiao Ziyuan heard this, her eyes widened.

Is Xiao Ziyu laughing at her for being uneducated?

As a daughter, what kind of knowledge do you want?

Will you recognize a few herbs that are amazing?

"I'm not a doctor, so what's the matter if I can't distinguish between herbs?" Xiao Ziyuan said with a smile, "I can't compare with the seventh sister, the seventh sister has to make a living by selling medicinal herbs, so naturally she has to know more." ”

Xiao Ziyu was indifferent, "What about selling medicine for a living? I didn't steal or rob, and I didn't do things with a clear conscience." However, if the fourth sister knew a little bit of medical skills, she wouldn't have left so many acne marks on her face!"

Xiao Ziyuan subconsciously covered her cheeks when she heard this.

Xiao Ziyu is really hateful.

Speak and step on her most painful place.

On the contrary, she scolded Xiao Ziyu for selling medicine for a living, but Xiao Ziyu did not refute it. even calmly sarcastically mocked what she had done to her conscience.

"What if I have acne marks on my face?" Xiao Ziyuan suppressed the anger in her heart, "My aunt has already asked Dr. Xun to treat me." ”

Xiao Ziyu shook his head, "Doctor Xun is afraid that there is nothing he can do!"

When Xiao Ziyuan heard this, his face turned pale.

She'd been taking medicine for months, and now she could smell the smell of medicine in her hair with her eyes closed. Her patience was gradually exhausted, so she personally asked Dr. Xun when the acne marks on her face would disappear.

Dr. Xun replied with a smile, saying that he would definitely eliminate it in half a year.

Half?

I actually have to wait for half a year.

Xiao Ziqi's head hurts.

She can't go out to a banquet, she can't go out with those rich ladies in Gusu to play and go out, let alone go out to buy jewelry and enjoy flowers...... The acne marks on her face were too deep to cover up with no amount of powder.

"Doctor Xun can't cure it, can you cure it?" Xiao Ziyuan sneered, "Xiao Ziyu, you can afford to treat yourself!"

Xiao Ziyu said, "I can indeed cure the acne marks on your face, Fourth Sister, but I've been very busy lately, I'm afraid I'm not free!"

Xiao Ziyuan couldn't help laughing.

Xiao Ziyu really dared to say such a thing!

The ancestors of the Gu family did have a highly respected imperial doctor, but that was a long, long time ago. The current Gu family lives by collecting medicines, and they are extremely pitiful.

How much can you sell for medicine?

It doesn't sell much at all.

If it weren't for the Gu family's secret subsidy for the Gu family over the years, the Gu family would have starved to death on the streets.

Thinking of the Gu family, Xiao Ziyuan's face was full of sarcastic looks.

"Seventh sister is really busy, isn't there something wrong with your aunt?" Xiao Ziyuan squinted, "I wonder if Second Mrs. Gu's body has been found?"

Xiao Ziyu still looked faint, and he didn't see half of his sadness and smile.

She said, "I have already asked Duan Yu to return to Beijing and tell my grandmother about it." In a few days, there will be news, and I will definitely tell the fourth sister about it. ”

Xiao Ziyuan gritted her teeth.

Who cares about the life and death of Second Mrs. Gu, so she doesn't want to have anything to do with the Gu family!

A poor sour taste.

Xiao Ziyuan wondered why she said so much, Xiao Ziyu was not angry at all, and was as cold and hard as Xuan Bing.

On the contrary, she was stuffy by Xiao Ziyu's chest.

I want to vent, but I don't know what to say.

It seems that all things can't affect Xiao Ziyu's mood......

It's so weird!

Is this still the irritable Xiao Ziyu from the past?

"If the fourth sister has nothing else to do, then I'll leave first!" Xiao Ziyu didn't take Xiao Ziyuan in his eyes, as if Xiao Ziyuan was an invisible person.

She raised her leg and was about to leave, but the next moment Xiao Ziyu walked quickly in front of Xiao Ziyu and blocked Xiao Ziyu's way.

Xiao Ziyuan sneered with a smile, "Why did the seventh sister leave so quickly, I have something to say about the seventh sister today." A few **** days ago, I heard a news, and the seventh sister will definitely like it!"

Xiao Ziyuan took a step back and looked at Xiao Ziyu's eyes, full of sympathy.

She said, "The third lady of the Cui family has already arrived in Gusu yesterday, and she lives in the south of the city!"

Xiao Ziyu narrowed her eyes slightly, is this the purpose of Xiao Ziyuan coming to her today?
