171 Discovery (3rd Watch)
He Yunqi asked some more questions about the fairy grass, and until the other party couldn't say it anymore, she stopped asking, and asked the person to buy dried fruit shells and fairy grass seeds, and then sent the person away.
After He Yunqi bought the husk of the fairy grass, he couldn't wait to try it. She didn't dare to add the husks directly to the food and sell them to the guests, but tried to add the husks to the medicinal diet in the kitchen of the He family, and specially chose a strong nursing home to test the medicine.
She never forgot what Shang Jinxiu said at the beginning, so she really wanted to know if this thing was really addictive? Is it really going to turn people into waste?
The man sold her a small bag of husks, which could be used for a long time if she tried it. He Yunqi couldn't help but smile expectantly when he thought of the changes that this kind of thing would bring to the medicinal food hall.
She didn't know what to say, after the man left the He family, the humility on his face disappeared without a trace, and turned into disdain and malice.
He Yunqi secretly found someone to test the medicine and observe the person's reaction.
When the first bowl of medicinal food was served, the man took a careful sip of it. will be cautious, it's not that he knows that there is something wrong with the Dao thing, it's just that he is just a nurse, but He Yunqi let him eat this kind of medicinal diet made with good medicine, which really makes him puzzled and flattered.
However, when he took the first sip, his face involuntarily showed a somewhat intoxicated expression, as if he had eaten the ultimate delicacy. Then he devoured the rest of the medicinal food.
After eating, the expression on his face was clearly unfinished. He Yunqi saw it in his eyes and smiled slightly. I feel a little more confident in the fairy grass. Even if such a husk is not addictive, as long as the taste goes up. I am not afraid that there will be no business at all.
However, He Yunqi didn't dare to take it lightly, and then it depended on the reaction of this nursing home. In case of adverse reactions. Then how could she dare to add the husk of fairy grass to the medicinal diet?
Maybe it's because this person is too strong, or maybe it's because things are right, in short, this person doesn't have any adverse reactions at all.
The next day, He Yunqi gave him another medicinal meal with ingredients. This time, he tasted it with a bit of anticipation, then his eyes lit up, and he devoured it again.
Then on the third day, on the fourth day, on the fifth day. He Yunqi deliberately gave him unfrequented medicinal food. As a result, after taking a bite, the man did not want to eat again, and he looked like he didn't know the taste of food.
He Yunqi deliberately asked him, "Why don't you eat it?" Doesn't it with your appetite? ”
The nurse's face was a little more cramped, and he looked at He Yunqi very embarrassedly, and his speech became stammering: "Big ...... Lady ......"
He Yunqi waved his hand so that he didn't have to say any more, and then asked him, "Do you think this time is delicious, or is it delicious before?" ”
This time, the guard said very dryly: "Of course it was delicious from the other day!" The taste was too bad this time. After speaking, he glanced at He Yunqi quickly, wondering if the eldest lady had seen him eat too much a few days ago. That's why he deliberately corrected him.
He Yunqi guessed that this person was probably addicted, and when she thought of this possibility, her face suddenly glowed with a charming brilliance.
He Yunqi was very happy at this time, her medicinal diet hall was saved!
She did the math. If she saves a little, the husk in her hand can last for a while. Before the husks run out, though. She had to grow the seed and grow new husks.
To save money. She asked the kitchen man to add only a small amount at a time. In this way, the effect of the husk is less pronounced. But the taste of the things has also improved a lot, and it has saved a little bit of the business of the medicinal restaurant.
Because the effect is not understood, there are not many people who are addicted, and even if there are, it is very mild, and it cannot be compared with the addiction caused by a certain drug. It wasn't until later that He Yunqi cultivated a large area of fairy grass and increased the amount of fruit shells, which caused many people to become addicted.
It was also at that time that Shang Jinxiu found out about this.
Time passed very quickly, He Yunqi was busy cultivating fairy grass seeds, Shang Jinxiu was forced to practice by Lan Qi, Shang Shigong was busy improving the hall, and a month passed quickly.
At this time, the good hall had been almost repaired, and the medical hall was opened, but Shang Shigong was still busy with his feet on the ground.
The triennial autumn season began, and Shang Shigong, as the prefect of Qingzhou, had no way not to pay attention to it.
Gu Haotian participated in this autumn festival, he and Gu Yunhai were very confident, when he came out of the examination room, he looked refreshed and refreshed, with a confident smile on his face, and instantly compared to others.
Feeling the gaze from all around, Gu Haotian was very proud. He is young at this time, and it is the time to perform well, wishing that he would become the focus of everyone, and everyone admires and admires him.
Simply put, it's narcissism.
After the exam, Gu Haotian had free time, and he remembered that Shang Jinxiu was here. Before, he had already regarded Shang Jinxiu as his belongings, and when she grew up, he accepted her into the house. It's just that he has been busy with Qiu Qiu's affairs before, and he didn't have time to find Shang Jinxiu, but now that he is free, he has moved his mind and wants to meet Shang Jinxiu.
He had already known about the matter of 'Yipin Xian', and at the same time, he also knew about the gradual decline in the business of the He family's medicinal restaurant. For the He family, he didn't look down on it at all, so naturally he didn't pay much attention to it. And since he planned to take Shang Jinxiu into the house, he regarded Shang Jinxiu as his own person, and he felt honored and very proud of the success of 'Yipinxian'.
So, Gu Haotian specially prepared a generous gift, took it to the merchant, said it was congratulations, but in fact, he was itching to see Shang Jinxiu.
After announcing his name, the porter did not lead him in directly, but shut him out and told him to wait, and then ran to report the news.
After getting the news, Li Shuhua's face changed. Ever since the ancient family wanted to bury the merchant's merits in the pit, she was very dissatisfied with the Gu family. Now Gu Haotian also came to give gifts in person, what kind of gifts? Is it necessary?
It's just that although Li Shuhua is not happy with him, it is not good to lock him out directly. After all, the Gu family has become a supplier of Shantang's medicinal materials, if it is seen, Gu Haotian will be rejected by them, and I don't know what kind of words will come out of the Dao!
Helpless, Li Shuhua had to ask Gu Haotian to come to the main hall.
When Gu Haotian arrived at the main hall, he saw that there were only Li Shuhua and the maid in the hall, his face changed slightly, and he was very disappointed. He came to see Shang Jinxiu, not Li Shuhua!
However, in order not to be too rude, Gu Haotian's expression quickly returned to normal, and he said a lot of congratulations to Li Shuhua. Li Shuhua listened with a smile, but felt uneasy in her heart. As soon as Gu Haotian came in, he looked at the main hall, looking like he was looking for someone. And after seeing that there were only her and the maid in the main hall, Gu Haotian's face even flashed a trace of disappointment.
What does this mean? Is Gu Haotian really coming to see someone? Who is that man? Could it be Lan Qi?
Li Shuhua didn't think about Shang Jinxiu, after all, Shang Jinxiu was only a nine-year-old girl, what was Gu Haotian looking for her? It's Lan Qi, who is in the prime of her youth, beautiful and celibate, and it's so normal to be favored.
So Li Shuhua thought that Gu Haotian had come to see Lan Qi.
After guessing this possibility, Li Shuhua shook her head silently in her heart. If it's someone else, how can it be Gu Haotian? The father and son of the Gu family are obviously not good things, even if Gu Hao is innocent about Lan Qi, she can't let Lan Qi be with Gu Haotian!
When she thought this, Lan Qi was lying comfortably in the hammock, checking Shang Jinxiu's cultivation results during this time. As a result, Shang Jinxiu still hasn't cultivated internal strength, but the fighting techniques she taught have already been learned, even if there is no internal strength, it is no problem to deal with ordinary ordinary people.
Lan Qi looked at Shang Jinxiu with critical eyes, not knowing that she was lying innocently.
Although Li Shuhua guessed it, but seeing that Gu Haotian didn't say anything, she pretended not to know, and talked nonsense with Gu Haotian a few words, then took the teacup and prepared to drive away.
Gu Haotian saw that he was leaving, so he had to grit his teeth and ask, "Can you invite Miss Shang Er to come out and see you?" ”
Li Shuhua's heart suddenly beat violently, and her eyes widened. She looked at Gu Haotian in disbelief, suspecting that she had read it wrong, and asked him, "Who do you want to see?" ”
Gu Haotian was no longer cramped this time, he said naturally: "That's the case, I met Ling Yan on the street last time, and I had some misunderstandings, and I want to explain it to Ling Yan clearly." ”
Although he said it in a high-sounding manner, he couldn't change the fact that he wanted to see Shang Jinxiu instead of Lan Qi.
Li Shuhua's gaze when she looked at him suddenly changed, and she didn't send someone to call someone, but just asked coldly, "Oh? And this thing? I don't know what to do. She is not a child who holds grudges, since this matter is in the past, you don't have to take it to heart. ”
Gu Haotian insisted very much: "That's Ling Yan is open-minded, but I have always been obsessed with this matter, if I can't explain it clearly in front of Ling Yan today, I am afraid it will become my demon in the future." ”
The corners of Li Shuhua's mouth twitched slightly, and she was very disdainful of Gu Haotian's statement. Still demons? Isn't that the idea of beating her precious daughter?
Thinking of this, Li Shuhua shot the eye knife at Gu Hao Tiankuang. Shang Jinxiu is only more than nine years old, and he is less than ten years old, even if he talks about marriage, he doesn't have to be so early, right? Besides, even if her daughter is not a lady, she is also a small jasper, and she is not the kind of person who ushers in and sends her, why should Gu Haotian see it if she wants to?
Li Shuhua's face became even colder, and she didn't even bother to hide her hostility and disgust for Gu Haotian, she said bluntly: "I said, there is no need to apologize, my daughter doesn't have this blessing, and she can't afford it!" ”
Gu Haotian's face changed suddenly, Li Shuhua's words obviously guessed his thoughts! (To be continued......)
