Chapter 143: Feeding the Crow [4]

Zhu Yan sent Apple out, dipped in warm water alone, her chin resting on the edge of the tub and quietly distracted.

The water was mixed with the end of Peilan and mint, and there was a pool of sweet taste in the hot steam, which finally made Zhu Yan's pounding heart return to its normal rhythm.

But those things just now, just a little recollection can make her blush with shame, she has always thought that she is used to seeing the atlas of human anatomy, and she doesn't care about the naked face between men and women, but ...... But that's not the same thing at all! The place touched by Yuan Rin seemed to be still trembling slightly, and she even heard her voice so coquettish at that time! That's enough......

Zhu Yan rubbed his long hair with the powder of hibiscus, buried his head under the water in annoyance, and held back until he was about to suffocate before raising his head, greedily sucking the humid air around him, and his irritable mood was diluted by the fear of suffocation.

"Girl, Apple is in." Apple leans in through the bamboo curtain with her clothes in her hand.

Zhu Yan floated slightly, picked up the towel on the side, wrapped his long hair and wrung it out gently, the water droplets between the hair fell, and the water jade beads were as translucent.

Seeing that her face was covered with water and her eyes were still swollen, Bai Ping felt very uncomfortable, so she stepped forward to help her slightly thin shoulders, stroked her gently, and whispered comfort, "Girl, don't take those things to heart...... Childe said that the girl was going to Lingnan in a few days, and now she had already arranged affairs. ”

"He's gone?" Zhu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, just enough to give her some time to calm down.

"Well, Childe said I'll come back in the afternoon." Apple wrung her brow slightly. Helped her out of the tub, wiping the water on her body while sighing. "Lingnan is such a desolate place, why should the girl go? Aren't you going to endure hardship? ”

"I'll go there and relax." Zhu Yan smiled, "I'll be back in two months, don't worry." ”

Ping shook her head, she had always heard people say that Lingnan was a wild place, and there were many poisonous insects, poisonous weeds, poisonous snakes and other things. Looking at Zhu Yan's delicate body, it's strange not to be tired.

"Sister, sister!" Zhu Qi's soft and glutinous voice sounded outside the curtain. "Sister, come out quickly!"

"Miss Qi wait a little longer." Bai Ping hurriedly responded, and looked at Zhu Yan helplessly, "Miss Qi is looking for you early in the morning. I just rushed to the girl's house. ”

Zhu Yan pursed her lips. I really don't know what this quirky little girl wants to do, so she hurriedly took the shirt handed by Bai Ping, and went out with her coat before she even had time to wear the middle coat, and tied the clothes while opening the curtains, and secretly complained in her heart that this dress was really inconvenient, and it was very easy to put on it, but it was still a reliable button.

Zhu Qi was still wearing a plain shirt, with a small black gauze on her arm. He also wore a white bow on his head, but his expression was much better than the previous days.

Zhu Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "Ah Qi, what's wrong?"

"My sister is in bed today." Zhu Qibian flattened her mouth and looked at her with big eyes, "Did my sister sleep with Brother Xuanqing yesterday?" ”

"Miss Qi, who is suing you here?" Apple's face sank slightly, and although they were going to get married, it was still not good to hear about it.

"Brother Guan He said, he said that my sister and Brother Xuanqing were resting together, and told me not to go up and quarrel with them, otherwise I would have gone up and pulled my sister out of the bed!" Zhu Qi blinked, held the little pink fist, and stomped her feet, "Why doesn't my sister remember, yesterday you clearly promised me that you would talk to that merchant brother about pills!" ”

Zhu Yan listened to her accusation of "tears", and then remembered that she did ask the merchant Shen Qian to talk about business yesterday, but later he was stirred up by Yuan Rin, and he had already thrown this insignificant matter out of the clouds.

Fortunately, Shen Qian hasn't come yet, otherwise this matter would be even more embarrassing.

turned his mind and remembered Zhu Qi's previous words, he couldn't help but purse his lips and chuckle, Guan He always had a straight face, I don't know if he was also straight face when he talked to Zhu Qi about this?

"Sister, what are you laughing at?" Zhu Qi stood on tiptoe and grabbed her sleeve, "Hurry up and see if there are any other interesting pills!" ”

"Got it, you come with me." Zhu Yan was so noisy by her that she dragged her soft little hands to the backyard.

Apple chased after the sisters, "The girl hasn't eaten yet......"

Under Bai Ping's persistent persuasion, Zhu Yan was now holding a small steamed bun with rose bean paste in his mouth, and according to Zhu Qi's wishes, he rummaged through the room behind where the medicinal herbs and various pills were stored for any pills that could catch people's attention.

"Sister, what is this?" Zhu Qipao opened a small silk bag, and inside were several soybean-sized balls, caramel color, with a layer of bright brilliance.

Zhu Qi smelled a sweet smell very keenly, licked her lips with her little tongue, and looked at Zhu Yan flatteringly, "Sister, can you eat this?" ”

"This is ......" Zhu Yan looked at the silk bag, which was embroidered with a branch of red plum, and the stitches were slightly clumsy, it should have been embroidered not long after she wore it, "This is a throat lozenge...... It should still be edible. ”

"Hmm......" Zhu Qi grabbed one and stuffed it into his mouth, soaking it sweetly, with a little cool taste, "This tastes good!" It's a pity that it smells like medicine, and Ah Qi doesn't like it. ”

Zhu Yan raised her face and looked at her screwed light eyebrows, do children like to eat candy? If you make some fruit candy yourself, I don't know if it's good to sell it?

But tomorrow I have to go to Lingnan with Bian Feng, and I have to take the time to pack up with Bai Ping today, I'm afraid I don't have time to think about these things anymore.

Zhu Yan shook his head regretfully and touched Zhu Qi's forehead, "Ah Qi, when my sister comes back from Lingnan, I will make you some candy to eat." ”

"Candy?" Zhu Qi's eyes widened in surprise, "Is it better than rock candy?" After thinking for a while, she shook her head again, very puzzled, "Is candy rock candy or fruit?" ”

Zhu Yan smiled "poof", rubbed her hair, and rubbed the two hanging buns on her head into a mess, "Naturally it's not a fruit, what fruit does Ah Qi want to eat, can my sister bring you some lychee longan when she comes back from Lingnan?" ”

"The girl is bad, I'm afraid that the lychee longan has just spit out the flower spikes, how can it bear fruit?" Apple chuckled and shook her head, "Besides, I can't afford to store this thing, and if the girl has a way to bring it back, the merchants who sell the fruit should have broken through the threshold." ”

"Then you have to tell Brother Liu to change our threshold to a stronger one." Zhu Yan pursed her lips and smiled, it is not difficult to find a way to keep it fresh, but her chemistry has been left for a long time, and it is a little difficult to pick it up at this time.

When Shen Qian came as promised, he was really frightened by the bottles and cans piled up on the table, he first went to Zhu Yan's pharmacy in the morning to see once, and was already deeply impressed by those delicate rouge gouache and small pills, and now listening to Zhu Yan patiently introduce other more medicinal pills here, he was full of thoughts that his business would definitely grow big this time, but he was afraid that Zhu Yan would not agree.

"According to the girl's meaning, the prescription can't be told?" Shen Qian frowned, if he knew the recipe and the law, it would only be a letter to the headquarters.

"I'm sorry, but I can't tell you that." Zhu Yan pursed her lips, although it was not good to hide it, it had the meaning of "the secret Zhongjing of the Jiangnan masters should not be passed on" that Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, sighed, but she felt that intellectual property rights were the most important.

Breathing a sigh of relief, Zhu Yan stood up and chuckled, "It is said that scarcity is expensive, just like the lychee longan in Lingnan is difficult to transport to other places, if these small pills can be made in the north and south of the river, they are as worthless as wild fruits growing everywhere." ”

"That's what the girl said." Shen Qian nodded, "Can the girl put some instructions on these pills and give them to the smaller one, so that she can send someone back to our headquarters in Jiangnan to discuss?" ”

"Zhu Yan is going to Lingnan tomorrow, I will send someone to send what the little brother wants, I don't know where to find the little brother?"

"Lingnan?!" Shen Qian was stunned and looked at the delicate little girl in front of her, a plain deep dress with flowers was tightly hidden, and her long hair was only covered with a hosta, spread on her shoulders in a flowing shape, although she didn't look as squeamish as an ordinary girl, but she couldn't tell that she would be a person who could go to Lingnan.

Zhu Yan blinked, "What?" Little brother thinks it's inappropriate? ”

Shen Qian looked at the pills on the table again, "tsk" was surprised, "The girl is really a strange person, I think of one thing, I heard that a few decades ago there was a miracle doctor who also liked to make many small pills, although there was only a small one, but it had a miraculous effect in curing the disease, and the miracle doctor was like a girl, and he walked all over the country, but unfortunately he caught up with the rebellion later, and such a strange person disappeared like this." ”

Zhu Yan bit his lip lightly, the miracle doctor he said should be the senior who crossed over, right? Fortunately, his old man disappeared, so that he was still able to walk this path.

"Our shop has a semicolon in Bailang Town, but the shop is small and inconspicuous, the girl asked the old people in the town, and they all knew." Shen Qian guessed that since she was going to Lingnan, she was afraid that there were still many things to arrange, and it was not good to bother any longer, "The little one will leave first." ”

As soon as Shen Qian's front foot left, Yuan Rin came back with his back foot, looked at Shen Qian's departing back and thought, "Ah Yan, what are you busy with?" ”

"Yesterday's business." Zhu Yan was a little cramped, and when he turned around, he wanted to dodge, "I still have to sort out ......"

"Why are you still thinking about this?" Yuan Rin frowned slightly, and pulled her to a secluded place, "You like to play with medicine, you will come from whatever you want, but why bother with these businessmen?" ”

Zhu Yan blinked, as a good child who is self-reliant and self-reliant, she has always felt that financial independence is extremely important, but if she said this to Yuan Rin...... She didn't think it would end well. (To be continued......)
