Chapter 32: Borrowing a Step to Speak

She pondered all night, and the next day she walked around like a ghost with a pair of fish bubble eyes.

She still couldn't figure out what her grandfather's realm of the void was.

With such a down-and-out identity as she is now, even the maids of big families can't compare, and the Qi Wangfu is also a relative of the emperor, how can someone like her enter casually.

A skill is indispensable.

However, Lin Manlu's perfume blending technology is not in vain, and it is also passed on by word of mouth in the heart of the boudoir Jiaojiao. If you don't have more looks than her, you can't get into it at all.

It seems that she still has to go to Guichun.

"Mother, I'm going to go out, you have to be careful when you're home alone."

Lin Wanbai actually didn't want to leave Aunt Zhao's side very much, who knew what else would happen, but yesterday she had already gone to Lin Manlu, and put on a pitiful and obedient expression in front of her.

If the arson was really committed by Lin Manlu, then her actions yesterday were undoubtedly a dose of reassuring medicine for Lin Manlu.

"My daughter's family is always running out, what are you doing when she shows up?"

Aunt Zhao counted on the side, but she was helpless, she was burned now, although she was not strict, but her work was hindered. And the stove room is also burned out, and there is no place to cook.

If Lin Wanbai doesn't go out and show his face, he can't even earn money for food.

"Then I'll put on the gauze hat, and that's it?"

Lin Wanbai picked up the gauze hat and put it on her head, the gauze covered her face, but it couldn't hide her graceful figure.

This is the hat and yarn hat left by Su Mu, and when Su Mu is mentioned, Lin Wanbai is still on fire.

If she has a chance to see him next time, she won't be called Lin Wanbai.

"Come back early, it's not good to see the sky."

Aunt Zhao sent her out the door, looked at the low-flying swallow, and said worriedly.

In the rainy season in June, it will basically rain for half a month here in the capital, and when she thinks of the leaky roof, Lin Wanbai can only swallow it in her stomach even if she has more helplessness.

If this battle is fought beautifully, then everything that belongs to her and her mother will be asked for it back.

She lifted her hat and walked down the alley, unsure if anyone was following her, so she had to use a roundabout tactic and be careful.

Finally, she walked through the intricate alleys and into Gui Chunxing.

The original 100-year-old age, after more than ten years of changes, has finally become a dilapidated shop in the wind and rain.

"This guest ......"

The shopkeeper saw that a guest came to the door, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, his century-old store, and there was no guest for three days on weekdays.

"Shopkeeper, it's me."

Lin Wanbai took off the hat and looked at the shopkeeper and said.

The shopkeeper looked at Lin Wanbai and asked in some surprise, "What is the little lady doing with a gauze hat?" ”

"Borrow a step to speak?"

Lin Wanbai put the gauze hat aside, looked at the shopkeeper, and smiled.

Wearing a hat and a gauze hat, she naturally has her thoughts, even if she gave Lin Manlu a dose of safe medicine yesterday, she can't guarantee that there is really nothing wrong, it is better to be careful.

The shopkeeper listened, walked to the side, lifted the curtain, said please, and invited Lin Wanbai to the backyard seat.

After sitting down, the shopkeeper asked the little maid to make a pot of high-grade Longjing, and suddenly the fragrance of tea in the elegant seat was overflowing.

"The little lady has come like this, I don't know what is going on?"

Lin Wanbai took out a piece of white paper from his cuff, handed it to the shopkeeper, and said, "Plus the spices I deposited yesterday, all of them are collected, how long will it take." ”

The shopkeeper took it and looked at it carefully for a moment before he raised his head and looked at Lin Wanbai, he knew all the spices in it, but he never thought that it could be fused together.

He couldn't imagine what kind of aroma it would come out.

"There are a few of them that are rarely used, but if the little lady is in a hurry, I still have a way to buy them quickly."

The hundred-year-old store still has some connections, even if Lin Wanbai wants something tricky, he can find it easily, but it takes a lot of effort.

"Naturally, the sooner the better."

Lin Wanbai answered, the birthday banquet of King Qi's mansion, but there is still half a month, she knows that incense is such a thing, the longer it lasts, the stronger it is, and the new incense is not valuable, this is what everyone knows.

She suddenly remembered her grandfather's realm of the void, the ancients were not technologically developed, and there was no way to explain many things, but for Lin Wanbai, everything could be explained.

"Shopkeeper, let me ask you one more thing, do you know poppy/poppy?"

"That's not a spice, if the little lady wants it, just go to the medicine hall and buy it."

Listening to the shopkeeper's relaxed tone, it seems that this poppy/poppy is a very common thing in this dynasty, just used for medicine, and there are not too many unruly acts.

Since it is only used as medicine, naturally no one will know that another use of poppy/poppy, if the dosage is well grasped, can indeed create the so-called Taixu realm.

"Please help me add a poppy to the list."

Since it was the request of the gold owner, he must have agreed to it, not to mention that going to the medicine hall to buy a poppy/corn seed is like buying licorice, there is no difficulty.

After explaining everything, Lin Wanbai took a long breath, raised his head, and looked at the shopkeeper with clear eyes.

The shopkeeper has passed the age of sixties, his hair and beard are gray, and it is rare to live past sixty years old in ancient times.

"Shopkeeper, although I only bought spices from you once, I am very satisfied with the quality of your spices, and if I can, I would like to buy spices from you for a long time."

Lin Wanbai looked at the shopkeeper and said what he had thought of a long time ago.

Why did she say that, because she wanted to pay on credit.

The shopkeeper smiled at her compliments, and said humbly: "The ancestral inheritance can't be defeated in my hands, and what Gui Chunxing sells is never fake." ”

"Shopkeeper, I have a way to make Gui Chunxing regain his former prosperity, what do you think?"

In fact, Lin Wanbai is also desperate, if she shows up in King Qi's mansion, she will openly confront Lin Manlu. Although Lin Manlu is only a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, there is still Lin Chen behind her, which should not be underestimated.

What if this time, she won the bet.

"What to say."

When the shopkeeper heard Lin Wanbai say this, he sat up straight, and looked at Lin Wanbai tightly with his two eyes, as if he felt that it was inappropriate to make such a joke.

"Nowadays, people in the capital only recognize the Lin family's spices, regardless of whether they are good or bad, as long as they are stamped with the label of the Lin family, it is good. But if Gui Chunxing's name can appear in front of the emperor's relatives and relatives, what will be the result? ”

Lin Wanbai looked at the shopkeeper and said slowly.

"How could I be in such a place, this shop?"

The shopkeeper laughed self-deprecatingly, a few pounds and a few taels, he himself knew very well.

Although he said this, Lin Wanbai heard his yearning tone, who didn't want to compete for a place with the Lin family.

"What if I say, I can do it?"

Lin Wanbai lowered her voice, pursed the corners of her mouth and smiled, since the other party was a well-informed old man, there was no need for her to continue to sell Guanzi.

"Shopkeeper, I haven't introduced myself yet, my surname is Lin, my name is Wanbai, and I am a person in the Lin family who was kicked out."

It's not a good thing to report your identity here, but in order to gain trust, Lin Wanbai has no other way.
