Chapter 89, Uncle Shi
There were not many guests invited for dinner, the prefect Gu Yan, the master Zhou Sidao, the captain Qin Zhongqiu and the deputy lieutenant Qin Zhongyue who guarded the city, and a few officials who often asked for martial arts.
The Gu sisters also showed up, and the two of them were red, like children who had done something wrong, and they were very embarrassed to stand in front of Wu Tiande.
Wu Tiande knew the cause and effect of the matter, and the resentment was not scolding, the two sisters always secretly left Hezhou for the sake of their Wu family. Wu Tiande was furious, but he couldn't say anything.
The old man had just learned about this from the people's apology, and he twisted his head and snorted coldly and ignored the two. The Gu family sisters were even more cramped and uneasy, standing innocently trembling among the people who came and went. However, Zheng Wen laughed and said: "You two should also have a long memory, do you think that you can break into the rivers and lakes by casually learning kung fu?" still wants to do things that bully people, inciting the people regardless of right and wrong, making your master's family unable to get together for a long time, and even causing the two dolls and Song's nephew to be imprisoned, why don't you compensate them quickly! ”
How can the two sisters be unreasonable, especially the usually good neighbors, who are now cold-eyed, which is really uncomfortable.
"Xingzhou, Nuan Nuan, forgive us! I—We were wrong, and we shouldn't have targeted you. Gu Lushan stumbled and said, and when he was relieved after apologizing, the words poured out like a wheel.
"We were also in a hurry, we wanted to buy good medicine for my master and Brother Xingyi, but the medicine was in hand, but it was stolen by the bad coachman who killed that day, and I was angry and anxious that day?? Just?? We didn't expect that you were Master's relatives, and if we had known, we would never have done this to you. ”
Wu Xingzhou bared his teeth at the two sisters, Wu Nuandong had a deep sympathy for the two, she heard Grandpa Zheng mention it, only to know that the two sisters went to half of their net worth in order to buy medicine for their grandfather and Brother Xingyi, although they were a little unkind to the three people who were looking for relatives, but the friendship of the Wu family was still rare.
Wu Nuandong smiled sweetly at Gu Lan Ling regardless of his previous suspicions, "Sister Lan, I heard that you worship your father as a teacher?" ”
Gu Lanling nodded flatteredly, "Nuan Nuan, you ...... You're our little sister, aren't you? ”
Gu Lushan looked at Wu Nuandong with round eyes, thinking that no matter what the master's daughter said, she would say the right thing to improve the master's bad impression of them.
"Hehe, we were taught by our grandfather himself, in terms of seniority, we are your two little uncles!" Wu Nuandong blinked mischievously, and looked at the two of them with big eyes, the two of them were speechless, choked for a long time, and shouted, "Little uncle......
"Good!" Wu Nuandong smiled, took out two bottles of small silver kettles the size of half a fist of babies from his arms and threw them to the two of them, "This is the exclusive formula of the martial arts healing medicine, a gift for you!" ”
The little adult-like behavior made the people present laugh out loud, and the Gu sisters were red-faced, thinking that Nuan Nuan remembered the enemy and the little ghost deliberately chilled the two of them!
Insiders such as Wu Tiande are happy for the two sisters, Nuan Nuan's martial arts don't even have the old man to touch the routine, since they have admitted their relationship with the Wu family, with Nuan Nuan's temperament, as long as they will not be sorry for the Wu family, they will definitely not treat them badly.
Before leaving Gaomen Village, Wu Nuandong made a lot of small silver pots, filled them with spiritual water, not only left a lot of Wu Xia Zhi and the two brothers, but also brought a lot of them with him, giving Zheng Wen and Wu Xingchuan who were going to travel far away with four bottles each, Old Man Wu, Daddy and Wu Xingyi each two bottles of emergency, and there are a bunch of them in the space!
The sisters of the Gu family were naturally mixed with water, and so was Uncle Song's.
Song Daga saw that the two sisters didn't take it seriously and put it in their sleeve pockets, and kindly reminded, "Don't underestimate the healing medicine prepared by Nuan Nuan, I scratched my hand when I moved in the afternoon, you see, apply one or two drops, and the wound will be healed, if the injury is more serious, half a bottle will definitely stop the bleeding." "There was a shallow scar on the back of the outstretched hand, and it was a new wound that could be seen from there. Gu Lanling was careful, remembered the wound on Wu Xingzhou's neck, turned his head to look, and naturally couldn't even see the scar.
Of course, the two sisters were no longer careless, and quickly hid the silver kettle in their arms.
Qin Zhongqiu and Qin Zhongyue were soldiers, and they were definitely unwilling to let go of this good medicine, but they were not allowed to speak, so Wu Nuandong opened his mouth and cut off their thoughts.
"Alas, it's a pity that the preparation of this medicine is too precious, not to mention Ganoderma lucidum, wild hundred-year-old northern ginseng, five heads of southern notoginseng are indispensable, and the cherished medicinal materials during this period are even more rare, and I just entrusted Grandpa Zheng's blessing with a few bottles."
The two sisters are even more vigilant, I'm afraid that someone will rob them of it. Panax notoginseng is a southern miracle medicine, and its preciousness is better than ginseng, although Panax notoginseng and ginseng have been cultivated by special people since ancient times, and there are few wild curative effects. What kind of medicine is this! Uncle Xiao sent it to fate! The hearts of the two sisters are even more unhappy, they were so sorry for the two children before, but the little uncle didn't remember half of the hatred!
How do they know that Wu Nuandong doesn't hold grudges, she may remember them for a lifetime!
Song Daga gasped, and couldn't help but protect the waist seal, secretly distressed by the waste of the day.
"Okay, a few bottles of medicine to see how proud you are!" Old Man Wu happily scratched Wu Nuandong's little nose, not to mention, Nuan Nuan gave him and Xingyi a good compress on the injury in the afternoon, and then combined with the medicine prescribed by Brother Zheng, sure enough, the often painful injury was much more comfortable.
seems to dislike the warmth and publicity, but in fact, the old man himself is happy to see his eyes, and the pride in his tone is undisguised.
Everyone present knew who the old man's treasure was, and praised it very understandingly, which made Wu Nuandong really embarrassed, she didn't mean to show off at all, and she wanted to take the opportunity to publicize the medicine field at home. I'm really embarrassed now.
Wu Tiande smiled helplessly, raised his glass to greet the guests, and for a while, he was finally full of wine and food, and the adults chatted.
Wu Nuandong finally found an opportunity to promote his own medicine field, "Lord Gu, are you the place where you are worried about the disaster victims?" ”
"Nuan Nuan, just call me uncle." After three rounds of drinking, Gu Yan was a little up, but he still had his senses, and he regretted complaining about this matter, so he had to nod his head, and he didn't forget to praise his peak, "Thanks to the general's sympathy for the people's feelings and came to recruit soldiers, most of the young and middle-aged people finally have a place to go, but those old and young women and children still have nowhere to go." The last sentence is quite emotional, and it can be seen that Gu Yan is a little cunning and mellow, but he is a good official.
Wu Nuandong didn't shirk, "I want to hire some people to go back to Gaomen Village to grow medicine, Uncle Gu, is there a suitable candidate?" ”
"You want to hire someone?" Gu Yan couldn't help but raise his voice. Wu Jiawa is very elfty, but he didn't expect his heart to be quite big, he asked uncertainly, "Nuan Nuan, do you know how much silver taels it costs to hire someone?" ”
"I know, it's safest to hire someone who can work with my family for the rest of my life."
Listening to Wu Nuandong's words, Gu Yan's last trace of drunkenness completely dissipated.
This doll is amazing! I know that human trafficking is illegal, and I also know how to play with tactful words.
The details can't be discussed at the dinner table, in order to stay in the city, Gu Yan has no heart to eat, but fortunately, he has been an official for several years, and finally waited until the table was over, and he couldn't wait to take Wu Nuandong back to the mansion to discuss in detail.
Most of the victims who were able to escape to Hezhou were people with strong bodies and strong hearts, but unfortunately they escaped natural disasters, and their bodies were inevitably infected with the plague. Of the original 600 victims, more than 100 died, and those who survived were basically young, strong, and well-rooted. General Zhenguo recruited 400 people, as well as less than 100 old and weak women and children, orphans and widows.
Wu Nuandong's mention yì naturally received Gu Yan's attention, and when he came to the study of the government office, he abandoned the official errand and left only Master Zhou, and he earnestly asked the most concerned question, "Nuan Nuan!" How many people do you want to hire? ”
ps: The matter of the two sisters is not over, you don't need to worry~
