Speaking of the widow Feng of Niujiao Village, she is also a celebrity.

Although Xiao Yu has only been in the village for more than a year and does not go out often, he has heard about the deeds of Feng's widow and wife a few times.

The reason why Xiao Pei only said that Xiao Yu asked Xiao Langzhong was because the bad reputation of Widow Feng/woman spread too loudly and did not want to get involved with him. I heard that the husband of the widow Feng was killed by his medicine, and then his in-laws took the grandson away and never returned.

Widow Feng's wife also has a cold face when she goes out on weekdays, and it is said that the man who comes to the door to flirt is extremely poisonous.

When a child in the village cries, the father and mother will threaten: if you cry again, let the poisonous widow take you away. The effect is very good, and it is the poisonous name of Feng's widow/woman who has spread far and wide.

I never thought that there was such a woman who knew medicine in this Niujiao Village, and she seemed to know poison/medicine, Xiao Yu was a little interested in exploring. She felt that Widow Feng hadn't poisoned those hooligans to death, and that she should not be the most vicious people in the village.

It's a pity that Xiao Yu hasn't seen this woman who is forty or fifty years old for so long. And most of the people who can poison are indeed not simple, and Xiao Yu does not want to easily provoke right and wrong.

Xiao Yu finished a few mouthfuls of chicken soup in the bowl.

Seeing that he finally came back to his senses, Xiao Pei reassured: "Are you still thinking about selling medicinal herbs? Don't worry, ask next week's doctor first. If you are reluctant to sell it cheaply, it is not impossible to dry it and store it first. ”

"Well, Sister A's right. The herbs on the left and right haven't been dried yet. Xiao Yu nodded.

Planting some herbs that were going to be transplanted, the three of them rested early this night.

After finishing their respective affairs early the next morning, Xiao Pei mentioned the matter of visiting Xiao Langzhong, but Xiao Yu found that there were a bunch of herbs waiting for her to deal with.

"If you don't work hard, Sister Ah and Yucheng will take a trip, so I will help ask which medicine hall has a good price for receiving medicinal materials." Xiao Yu said and picked out some better medicinal materials to bring to the two of them as a gift.

Xiao Pei went out with the medicinal herbs and Xiao Yucheng.

But in an hour, the two of them returned. Xiao Pei said to Xiao Yu, who was busy repairing herbs: "I asked Dr. Zhou, and he said that most of the medicinal materials he picks on weekdays are for his own use. However, as far as he knew, the Great Medicine Hall, such as the Rejuvenation Hall, the Jishi Hall, and the Boring Hall, all had a good reputation and an excellent reputation. ”

Xiao Yu looked up from the medicinal herbs and said with a smile: "Sister Yucheng has worked hard. After a few days, the medicinal materials are all concocted, I will take them to these pharmacies and ask, if they are collected, they can be taken there directly after collecting the medicine, and there is no need to find another place. ”

"That's nature." Xiao Pei moved the wooden mound out and sat down in the herb room, picked up a medicinal herb with purple veins like Xiao Yu did, and asked, "How do I get this?" ”

Xiao Yu looked up and said, "Just remove the impurities from the bad leaves and put them on the bamboo mat to dry." He also felt that Xiao Pei and Xiao Yucheng should learn to identify medicinal materials, so he continued: "Sister is holding Ziluo, do you see if there are purple-red reticulated leaf veins on its oval leaves?" Purple gas is fragrant, spicy and cool, and can be used internally to relieve turbidity, clear heat and dampness; External use can also invigorate blood circulation and dissipate stasis, sores and relieve pain. ”

Xiao Pei and Xiao Yucheng each took one and looked at it carefully, and silently remembered it in their hearts.

After the herbs were disposed of, Xiao Yu handed over almost all the drying to Xiao Pei and the others, and developed the pills by himself all day long. After a few days, fortunately, the weather was fine, and all the herbs were processed and dried.

During this period, some people in the village saw that Xiao Yu and Xiao Yucheng went into the mountains to catch prey, and felt that the two and a half children could return safely and harvest a lot. As a result, within half a day, he cried and raised a man who had been stung by poisonous insects and came back to Dr. Zhou for treatment.

When such an incident happened, the villagers remembered that the men who went into the mountains to hunt in the past were often injured, and realized that these wild meats were not eaten by anyone, so they stopped hunting. And the new kid from the Xiao family is also more curious.

Early summer is already very hot.

Xiao Pei boiled a pot of mung bean soup, first served a bowl to Xiao Yucheng, who used to dry herbs by weaving a simple and rough mat with bamboo strips under the longan tree, and then sent it to Xiao Yu in the east. As soon as she entered the door, Xiao Yu was piercing herself with a long silver needle.

Seeing Xiao Pei come in, Xiao Yu took the needle and said with a smile: "I haven't had a needle for a long time, so I don't get rusty when I practice my hands." Occasionally, acupuncture can also warm the meridians and harmonize qi and blood, and there will be no mistakes. ”

"With such benefits, if you give me acupuncture on weekdays, won't you give birth to hands? It's better than trying the needle yourself. Xiao Pei handed the mung bean soup to Xiao Yu and said, "You haven't practiced female red today, just go and embroider the chunlan that you didn't embroider yesterday." ”

Xiao Yu felt that as long as he could make clothes on needlework, there was no need to embroider and learn exquisite skills, and said with a smile: "I will go to the city tomorrow, and I will pick some medicinal materials to see the price." ”

"What will I do in the future if I am not good at being a female celebrity?" Xiao Pei said helplessly, "By the way, wouldn't it be better to bring all the medicinal materials to be sold into the city?" Why make an extra trip. ”

"Sister, you are a fourteen-year-old girl, and you are not a forty-year-old mother, how can you have the heart to? But it's really good to bring all the herbs with you. Sister Ah is really far-sighted and far-sighted. Xiao Yu said with a smile.

"Stinky girl, come to make fun of your sister again!" Xiao Pei said with a smile.

The next day, Xiao Yu and Xiao Yucheng went out very early, the rising sun had not yet come out of the side of the mountain, the field was shrouded in a faint mist, the villagers were busy working in twos and threes carrying hoes and shovels, and the sound of chickens and dogs barking was heard from time to time between the houses, which made this small mountain village seem more peaceful.

Zhou Changlin, the eldest son of the uncle's family on Wednesday in the village, who is nearly 30 years old, went into the city to buy today, and the two of them went together in his ox cart. At this time, Zhou Changlin and Yucheng were driving in front, and Xiao Yu was leisurely enjoying the scenery behind the car.

"Yo, isn't this the Achuan siblings? What good things did you take to the city to sell? ”

Xiao Yu heard this disgusting voice, looked up, and sure enough, it was the annoying second dog again. Seeing his thief's eyebrows, I remembered that he had repeatedly blocked the road and accosted him, and I couldn't help but turn my head. Xiao Yucheng also ignored him. Zhou Changlin drove the ox cart faster, leaving him far behind.

After entering the city, Xiao Yu and Zhou Changlin made an appointment to go back and a place to meet, and went to work separately. The two of them inquired about the location of the medicine hall.

The use of poison in the land is very strong, and it is even worse after the establishment of the Great Qi Dynasty, so the price of rare poisons and antidotes is more expensive than that of Zhucui; Compared to ordinary medicinal herbs, they are available everywhere and are quite cheap. There are many shops selling medicine in Yong'an County. Walking along the street, you can see many medicine plaques of different sizes placed in front of the shops on both sides, and most of them are common types.

The two went straight to the nearest big pharmacy, Jishitang.

Jishitang is in the most prosperous area of this long street, and the store is open. Different from the small pharmacy, the entrance of the large pharmacy hall is generally separated by a screen, and the picture of collecting medicine on the seat screen of this Jishitang is quite appropriate.

Xiao Yu and Xiao Yucheng turned the screen and came to the spacious main hall.

The house is full of medicinal fragrance.

When you enter the eye, you can see the whole wall of tall sour branch wood medicine cabinets, and the rows of neat drawers are engraved with the names of the medicines with bronze medals, and the handwriting is neat and upright; The push-pull copper handle is polished. In front of the medicine cabinet is a carved barrack, on which are placed yellow paper, medicine bowls, mills, stone paperweights, scales and abacus, etc., as well as medical books and pen and ink. There are also several blue and white porcelain jars tied with red cloth strips at both ends of the barricade.

Three medicine crates stood between the barricade and the medicine cabinet to watch and grab the medicine.

There are tables and chairs and couches on the left and right sides of the main hall, and several doctors are sitting in the hall.

At this time, there happened to be a sallow-faced woman looking for medicine in the hall, but she saw that the old doctor with white hair put away the pulse pillow and prepared a prescription like a cloud.

The woman took the prescription and went to the counter to grab the medicine.

The medicine man looked at the prescription, flattened it on the counter and pressed it with a paperweight, grabbed a few pieces of cut square yellow paper, took the small scale, turned the brass weighing plate to pour out the impurities, walked to the medicine cabinet with the left hand, grabbed the medicine with the right hand, blindly weighed it, and then checked it again, packed the medicine tightly, and reused the abacus to settle the bill, and the action was very skillful.

Then the woman gave the copper coins as much as she could, and took the medicine and left.

Xiao Yu secretly thought that it was good to open a pharmacy, but what he learned was not medical skills, and although he almost knew all the medicinal materials, he was not very good at seeing a doctor and prescribing prescriptions.
