A few days later, on a sunny afternoon, Li Laoshi returned from Taiqingguan to visit his home with a wheelbarrow full of food, and was pleasantly surprised to find that there were two more rooms in the house.

Next to the miscellaneous house at the east end are two white-walled brick houses with oiled paper windows.

There was a red paper door god pasted on one of the doors next to the miscellaneous room, the door was half open, and the sound of pounding things came from inside.

Li Laoshi rushed into the new house, looked at the little daughter who was sitting on the small bench under the window and was concentrating on the medicine, and said with a smile: "What kind of herbs is Sister Jing pounding, and Daddy didn't hear it when he came back?" ”

"Daddy!" Li Jingjing was thinking about the medicine field.

Li Laoshi picked up his little daughter, kissed her little cheek, and asked, "What about your grandmother and your mother?" ”

Li Jingjing replied: "Grandma went to my uncle's house to make clothes, my mother took Xiao Lingzi to play in the backyard, and my little uncle went to the school. ”

Li Laoshi took his little daughter to see the new house next door, and found that it was empty and empty.

"Carpenter Yu in the village is grateful to our family for sending the ointment last time, and wants to make me four medicine racks for free, and send them when they are ready." Li Jingjing pointed to the wall and said, "I'm going to place the medicine shelf here." ”

Li Laoshi has seen his youngest daughter's intelligence and ability more than once, and has never doubted her, and has always felt particularly pleased and proud.

For dinner, the Li family ate an eight-pound grass carp brought back from Guanli by Li Laoshi, as well as half a goose.

Qu Shi drank rice wine and ate stewed goose, and said slowly: "Changsheng, the big event of building a house and buying land at home, I originally wanted to tell you about it again." Your uncle was in a hurry, and said that he would hurry up while the old patriarch was interested in our family. ”

Li Laoshi said with a smile: "Mother, I have been away from home for many years, and you are in charge of everything in this family." You just have to do it, you don't have to wait to ask my opinion. ”

Qu nodded with satisfaction: "Hmm." If only you understood that. I'm not alone in charge of major matters, so I've asked you. You are literate and reasonable, and you know more than I do. If I don't know what I'm sure about, I'll listen to her. She's right! ”

He Shi said modestly: "Mother, don't praise me." You eat more salt than I eat rice. You've been running this home for years, and you're worried about everything. I'll toast you for a long time. ”

The family had a sumptuous dinner, and he Meimei, if Qu's husband could come back for a reunion, the small life would be happier than any other family in the village.

The next day, Li Laoyong pushed the empty wheelbarrow back to Taiqingguan after breakfast, and went straight to the pharmacy to see Guangmingzi, who had just taken the prescription and was about to go to the second floor to make a pharmaceutical.

Li Laoshi was the first time to help Li Jingjing bring a message to the medicine Taoist, and after considering the sentence, he said slowly: "Medicine Dao Chief, my daughter said that you should find some people to go to Qujia Village to help her turn the wasteland into a medicine field. ”

Guangming Zi was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head and said, "This is not Pharmacist Li's original words!" ”

Li honestly touched his head, only learned from Li Jingjing's tone, raised his voice and said: "Guangmingzi, you haven't been to my house again, do you think that you took my ointment and haven't repaid my favor, so I'm embarrassed to come?" ”

A smile appeared on Guangmingzi's face and said, "This is what Pharmacist Li said. ”

Li Jingjing's words simply went to his heart.

He hadn't been there since he left Qujia Village a year ago, not because he didn't want to go, but because he had been waiting for the reply from the master medicine god, and wanted to bring good news to Li Jingjing, and repay her for the answer to the prescription without asking for anything in return.

Li Laoshi then imitated his daughter's tone, shook his head and said, "Then now I'll give you a chance to return the favor." I have three acres of land, you immediately find someone to open up the wasteland for me and turn it into a medicine field and a medicine beast circle, and then get me some easy-to-care medicinal herb seedlings and easy-to-live medicine beast cubs. ”

Several medicine disciples poked their heads out of the windows of the two-story room in the medicine room, all with puzzled faces, guessing who was so angry and dared to let Guangmingzi do so many things, and wanted Guangmingzi to be a precious herb seedling and medicine beast cub.

Guangming Zi Ha Lu Ha Da smiled excitedly and patted Li Laoshi's shoulder, and said, "It's finally time for Pharmacist Li to use me." ”

Li Laoshi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Guangming Zi handed over the prescription in his hand to a medicine apprentice, personally called the steward of the medicine room, and asked him to immediately put down everything at hand and go all out to handle the matter according to Li Jingjing.

The pharmacy manager is a formal martial artist in the temple, the Taoist number is Wangjing, and he is the senior brother of Wangfeng and Wangyang, and his power is not as big as that of the housekeeper, but he relies on the ability and prestige of Guangmingzi Pharmaceutical, and has the most right to speak in all the stewards, that is, he has some face in front of the master.

Li Laoshi bowed to Guangmingzi and Wangjing and said gratefully: "I will thank the Taoist chief for the little girl first." ”

Guangmingzi waved his hand and said, "This is a big deal, you go quickly." By the way, you take Yun Qing and let him go home to see his family. ”

"Yes, Uncle Shi." Wangjing is a down-to-earth and capable person who doesn't talk much, otherwise how could he get into the eyes of Guangmingzi and let him be the manager of the pharmacy, responsible for purchasing herbs, medicine beast cubs, and managing the money from the sale of medicines.

He paid two hundred taels of silver from the account of the pharmacy, and took one of the medicine apprentices and a lay fireman in the pharmacy, that is, Li Yunqing and the medicine apprentice Master Li who assisted.

Li Yunqing went home for the New Year and stayed for only three days before leaving, and after three months, he finally took this opportunity to go home, and learned that his little sister already had a medicine room and a medicine storehouse, and was about to build a medicinal herb field and a medicine beast circle, and he was extremely excited.

Wangjing went to the agricultural steward and asked for thirty tenant farmers who worked well, let the tenant farmers farm tools, and went to Qujia Village that day.

When the people passed by Taihe Town, they broke open the silver taels and gave each tenant farmer fifty copper coins, so that they could buy a day's dry food, and the rest was the reward for clearing the wasteland today. If you do a good job, you will come back tomorrow, and if you do not do well, you will come to another tenant farmer.

These tenant farmers usually work for the other stewards in Guanli, and they give a few copper coins a day at most, but they have never received so many copper coins, and they all decide that they must work hard this time and strive to come again tomorrow.

A group of strange men suddenly appeared in the wasteland of the Li family, which alarmed everyone in Qujia Village, and everyone who had nothing to do came over to take a look and say a few words.

The old patriarch heard that the head of the medicine room, Wangjing Daoist, was coming, so he came over to speak, and learned that the medicine Taoist helped Li Jingjing build a medicine field and cover the medicine beast circle, and suspected that the medicine Taoist was using the banner of the Li family to place a medicinal property in Qujia Village, and specially instructed the clansmen to wait for the medicine field and the medicine beast circle to be built, and they must not destroy it.

Wangjing had a good relationship with the eldest son of the old patriarch, and said, "The medicine field needs to be heavily fattened. Can the old patriarch bring some water from the village? ”

The manure water of rural households is stored in special pits. At this time, it is past spring ploughing, and there is not much fertilizer needed in the vegetable field. This is extremely easy for a patriarch to do.

The old patriarch said happily: "When do you want it, when will I ask the clansmen to pick up all the dung and water." ”

Wangjing pointed to the field that had been plucked out of the weeds, and said slowly: "Old patriarch, I still need to open a canal next to the medicine field, so that Medicine Master Li can water the medicine field without having to travel far." ”

Medicine fields are more difficult to take care of than rice fields, and a good fertilizer also requires an appropriate amount of water.

Wangjing was cautious, and in order to make it convenient for Li Jingjing to take care of the medicine field in the future, he thought very carefully for her.

The old patriarch smiled: "This is easy to say. I'll just ask the clansmen to extend the ditch deep into the medicine field. ”

Master Li rushed over and asked, "Steward, I've seen them all, and I've also asked Pharmacist Li, so I built the medicine beast pen in the backyard of her house, so that she can take care of the medicine beast at any time." ”

Wangjing nodded and said, "Everything depends on Pharmacist Li." I'm going to ask Pharmacist Li, what kind of medicine beast do you need? ”

The old patriarch followed Wangjing to Li's house, and witnessed Wangjing talking respectfully to Li Jingjing, and was shocked for a long time without speaking. sighed in my heart: Li Laoshi's cousin and daughter are simply not simple, Li Laoshi is really lucky.
