Back in the bushes when he came, the slate bridge is not far downstream, and looking from here, you can still see Jian Yun, who is dressed in goose yellow, squatting on the shore, carrying a wooden bucket to fetch water. On the side, Lu Fu stretched out his hand to help, and the two laughed and splashed water.

"I was taken away by Lord Guan before, and the girl of Green Fu was reluctant, but now she is having a good time. If you want to call her, people may not be willing to come back. Chunying pointed at it from afar and told the girl to take a look.

The seventh girl raised her chin and said seriously, "It's just right not to come back, save the monthly example for that girl." How do you say that, I am a hundred family surnames and a second surname is missing - lack of money. ”

Several people burst into laughter, and the sound of soft and crunchy laughter was heard far along the riverside. In early summer, the sun is not small, but fortunately, the scenery here is pleasant, and it is particularly pleasant to walk between the mountains and rivers.

Passing through a wide field, the five girls found Jiang Ying next to her several times that she had slowed down, thinking that she was a rare purple wildflower, so she kindly asked. "If you really like it, just pick it and wait for you."

Seeing that she bent down and picked a small flower and handed it to her, the seventh girl was surprised, and then she knew that the fifth girl had misunderstood. Gently thanked, still in hand.

"The fifth sister has a heart. But my sister didn't look at flowers and plants, but herbs. No, that's what it is. Coincidentally, there was a plant two steps away, so he simply pointed at her.

"Herbs?" Squatting down in the past to take a closer look, twisting the leaves and looking left and right, the five girls turned around and were very confused, "How do you look familiar?" ”

"Isn't it familiar? Miss, the slave maid embroidered it in your purse, isn't it this herb that you added? Every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, you need to go to the Crane Year Hall early to grab medicine. ”

The five girls don't like women, and they naturally don't care about the details. At this time, I was reminded by Xin Zhiyi, and finally saw the sun and guessed a few points. "Is this wormwood?"

With two fingers, I picked a young leaf and sniffed it on the tip of my nose, only to smell the smell and dislike it. "When you smell it, you pour sour water, it's bitter and astringent, if it's really that mugwort leaf, this smell can't be wrong."

got up and clapped his hands, took the silk handkerchief handed by Xin Zhi, and wiped his hands carefully. "That's what the living wormwood grassland looks like. What is commonly seen is dry, and the earth is tied up in a bunch, and hung on the wall should be a solar term. After thinking about it, he casually asked, "What is the difference between these two?" ”

I really wanted to say it deeply, but Xin Zhi couldn't answer. Chunying saw her embarrassed and kindly relieved her.

"What the five girls said was sun-dried wormwood, also called 'Chen Ai'. The utility is more than the new one. Chen Ai saved the cellar, and if he put it for a few more years, it would be of great use. It can dispel dampness and cold, stop bleeding and stabilize the fetus, and calm cough and asthma. If it is mashed, it can also be made into 'mugwort', which can be used as medicine and as printing clay. The slave maid also listened to the young lady, and the young lady also said that there is a saying in the book, called 'Seven years of illness, three years of love'. Therefore, the aged wormwood, there are often people in the market who use shoddy goods, take less than the year, and blackmail the people who buy the medicine. ”

A few people gathered together to talk lively, Gu Yan stood with his hands in his hands, and looked at the girl's slightly reddened side face. His gaze swept over the wormwood, his eyes thoughtful.

She actually knows medicine. She talked about Chen Ai with her former maidservant, and she was particular about the words, which were all the usual terms used by Lang Zhong when he saw a doctor. Ordinary families, maids are far from this insight. Women are familiar with pharmacology, which is rare among noble women.

Although there are medical women in the medicine hall, most of them are poor families who have a difficult livelihood, so they have to ask their daughters to go out and show up and find an errand. How did she learn the skills of being pampered like her?

As before, he silently remembered it. The time is not right, there is no need to rush to arrest her and ask her.

The group finally arrived at the end of the stone slab bridge, and they were slightly frightened when they looked closely. The bridge deck is extremely narrow enough for one person to pass through. There are no guardrails on both sides, weeds grow in the gaps of the stone slabs, and layers of moss are carefully climbed.

Chunying has a steady temperament and is the first to go. I can still take care of some of the five girls when I turn around, and support them when I need to. After that, Xin Zhi, whose legs trembled a little, walked tremblingly and walked very slowly.

The seventh girl was also afraid of startling her, so she didn't dare to urge. Deliberately stay away from her, so that she can be at ease and not so anxious. She was so nervous about the maid in front of her that she didn't worry about the person behind her at all, so she was less wary.

Gu Yan followed behind her, but he was only a foot away, and he could reach out and take her into his arms.

He has a solid foundation, his feet are steady, and he still pays more attention to her feet. The first few people in front of him walked slowly, so he was patient, walking and stopping, and he was indescribably calm and elegant. His eyes fell on her petite figure, and the man's eyes lifted and leaned forward slightly. Sticking to her left ear, he whispered to her in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Do you know medicine?" ”

She is a down-to-earth person, and if she really wants to do something, she is fully concentrated.

was calm and cautious, and suddenly heard a question from him in her ears, and she instinctively turned back, she might as well be so close to her. There was only two fingers between the two, and his handsome face was like a crown of jade, just under her nose, as soon as she met her, she was stunned, and when she came back to her senses, she was in a hurry to retreat.

He was also a little surprised. Unexpectedly, she would turn her head very quickly, and the tip of her nose almost brushed his chin. He didn't mean to confirm it, but he didn't expect her to react so much.

The seven girls were frightened and took care of one or the other. The man was so imposing that she desperately tilted her neck to the side, and her feet moved sideways. His eyes were sharp, and he couldn't help but say, and his hand was like electricity to support her waist. half-hugged her, but her eyes were gloomy and cold.

"If you dare to take it lightly, I will throw you down immediately."

She looked at him with a wistful look in her eyes—

It turned out that the back of her foot had stepped on the edge of the stone slab, and if she wanted to retreat again, it was really hard to say what the fate would be. With this man to protect him, he will not stumble and fall into the water; But because of him, the end will definitely not be better.

At this time, he also said that he would throw her down, and the gloomy and intimidating time before was still fresh in her memory, and she would never forget it.

The seventh girl secretly defended herself in her heart: If you didn't have a ghostly son, there would be no such a show at all! But she didn't have the guts. hasn't dared to fight him head-on.

After a stalemate for a long time, he finally held back a sentence that made him frown, but he couldn't help but be soft-hearted.

"Shizi, my neck hurts."

Seeing that she was relying on him, she stubbornly tilted her head to the side. He snorted softly and slowly straightened her up.

"Seek guilt upon yourself." Catching a glimpse of her servant about to go ashore, he let go and took a step back, dusting off his sleeve robe.

The seventh girl laughed and raised her hand to press her neck, suddenly remembering that he had just asked.

It was only a moment to weigh it, and she was very confident: this person has treated her well so far, and she must have cooperated well, was honest, and did not dare to deny it.

So he turned back and carried it forward, "Pharmacology is all the way, only a little rough." "After saying that, I felt that I had passed another test.

didn't understand what she was doing, and he motioned to her with a "hmm" not to rub it any further. followed her, thinking about entering Beijing in the future, and her life was a success.

Finally arrived at the other side, the seventh girl jumped over in one step, and Chun Ying just grabbed her arm and picked up the person safely. Before he stood still, he listened to the girl of the green fu on the shore, who opened her voice and waved her arms at them, "Miss, ducklings, Lord Zhou is driving a lot of ducklings, and a large string is swimming over!" ”
