Chapter 23: Know

"Don't lie to me, did you go to Meiwu Mountain?" Dong Mingxuan said a little angrily.

"No, why do you ask that, dad?" Bai Jiaojiao said.

Dong Mingxuan frowned, "You didn't go to Dingfeng Mountain, so this Dingfeng Grass is not easy to dig up." How did you get it? At the foot of the mountain, I haven't seen it for decades, why are you so lucky? Dong Mingxuan said angrily.

Dong Mingxuan's words were a little anxious, but it caused him discomfort, and he coughed a few times.

"Dad, don't worry." Bai Jiaojiao thought a little badly, how could she forget that Dong Mingxuan was not an ordinary person at first glance, nor was he an illiterate farmer.

Dong Mingxuan saw that Bai Jiaojiao refused to tell the truth, so he called Qingfeng. "Where did you and Yiyi go today? Think about it clearly, if you say you're lying, I'll beat you until you tell the truth. ”

Qingfeng didn't know how to lie the most, so he looked at Bai Jiaojiao, a little anxious, and Tang stood aside, and he didn't know what to do.

"You're trying to me off, why do you still want to go to Meiwu Mountain if it's so dangerous?" Dong Mingxuan said that when he watched Qingfeng behave like this, he knew that they definitely went to Meiwu Mountain.

Dong Mingxuan was a little angry, raised his hand and slapped Qingfeng, and hit Qingfeng's face squarely, and Qingfeng's face turned red in an instant.

Suddenly, everyone froze there.

Dong Mingxuan's raised hand did not let go, and was still held high.

A little trembling said, "It's all my fault, if it weren't for my body dragging you down, you wouldn't have to go to the mountain." "All the people fell silent. I don't know what to say.

"Don't say anything, Dad." Bai Jiaojiao broke the embarrassing silence and said crisply: "What do you mean by causing us to be involved, it's not to blame me for this, if it weren't for me, you would have gone to Nameiwu Mountain, if you didn't go to Nameiwu Mountain, how could you get hurt, in the final analysis, it's still my fault." ”

Dong Mingxuan wanted to speak again to persuade him, but Bai Jiaojiao said again: "We are already a family, why should the family say that it is not a drag." ”

Qingfeng hurriedly said comfortingly: "Yes, Dad, didn't you say it?" Our family will definitely live well in the future. Now let's spend the days together, and when you're well, let's find a way to go other ways together. ”

Dong Mingxuan looked up at the breeze. I don't know when it started, this son he saw growing up since he was a child has quietly changed, although it still looks simple, but if you look closely, you will find that both his eyebrows and eyes and his spirit have become much more vivid.

Such a change is due to.... Dong Mingxuan looked up at Bai Jiaojiao who was standing behind Qingfeng, all of them were influenced by that woman.

"Then you can't go to Meiwu Mountain, that Meiwu Mountain is too dangerous, it's not appropriate for you to go." Dong Mingxuan said.

"Dad, we've been to Meiwu Mountain together before, although it's in the surrounding area, there are herbs on the mountain, so if we don't go to Meiwu Mountain, do we have any other way? Where else can we go? Bai Jiaojiao said.

Dong Mingxuan lowered his head, lowered his head and thought deeply, a little dumbfounded.

"It is indeed this reason, the old man said that if you rely on the mountain, you must eat the mountain, and if you rely on the water, you must eat water, and we will build according to the mountain, and we must be inseparable from the way of life that the mountain gives us. There are herbs we need on the Meiwu Mountain, and that is our way of life. Tang said persuasively, and patted Dong Mingxuan's hand with his hand.

"Yes, Xianggong, although it is a little more dangerous, you have also seen the current situation, fight hard, maybe we still have a way to live. If you don't fight, you can't say that you are dead, but you must die for a lifetime. Tang also tried his best to comfort Dong Mingxuan.

"Dad, don't worry. Although Meiwu Mountain is dangerous, if we are careful, and if we are more careful, we may not be able to break out of a way out. Qingfeng said.

Dong Mingxuan saw that their mothers and daughters were all standing on the united front.

He waved his hand and said, "Hey." I can't control you now, so let it be, and you must protect yourself and don't get hurt, or I will become a sinner. After speaking, he moved into the house, Qingfeng wanted to help him, but Dong Mingxuan pushed Qingfeng away. Qingfeng didn't know what to do, Tang and Qingfeng looked at Bai Jiaojiao in unison, and Bai Jiaojiao gave them a look that they didn't have to worry about.

Looks like Daddy has decided to leave them alone.

Tang walked up to Qingfeng and said, "Does it hurt?" ”

Qingfeng looked up at Tang. "It's really nothing." Qingfeng said. "How much energy can he do? Besides, I'm a man, let alone a slap, even if I throw a few more punches, I'll be fine, not to mention that he's sick now, and he can't use any strength. ”

"Sit down, my mother will give you some medicine." Tang said.

"Oh." Qingfeng said.

Tang looked at the Dingfeng grass lined up on the ground and said to Ji Jiaojiao. "It's in really good condition, it should be able to sell for a good price."

"Well, I think too," Bai Jiaojiao said.

Tang picked up the biggest one and took it out, "This one is reserved for your father." ”

Bai Jiaojiao has no opinion.

"Yiyi, mother, thank you." Qingfeng saw Bai Jiaojiao's approach, although it was originally for her father, she would also leave some for her father, but she didn't think that they were willing to take out the biggest one and leave it for Dong Mingxuan. Said with some gratitude.

"What are you doing so politely, kid?" Tang's gaze fell on Qingfeng's face, and he said with some guilt. "If it weren't for your father to find Yiyi, he wouldn't have been hurt like this. It's the way it should be, it's not a big deal, and don't say it again. ”

"Mother, don't say that." Qingfeng interrupted Tang Shi's speech.

Bai Jiaojiao didn't want Tang to talk around this topic, and said in the face of Qingfeng, "Brother, you go find a bowl and get some sand back, let's plant these Dingfeng grasses with soil, and take them to the town tomorrow, and they can be sold for a good price." ”

The breeze answered and walked out.

Bai Jiaojiao hurriedly caught up and added, "Get more sand and soil, and take it out to sell tomorrow, so that it looks good." ”

"Hey, got it." Qingfeng said as he walked outside.

After a short time, they came back with a broken bowl and sand, and the two of them planted the dingfeng grass into the soil and gently covered it with soil. It was not too early to do all this, thinking that he would have to go to the town early tomorrow morning, Tang urged the two of them to take a bath and go to bed.

The next day, as soon as the rooster crowed, Tang got up early in the morning and simply made a breakfast for Bai Jiaojiao and Qingfeng to hurry up to eat, go to the town, go early and return early.

On the day of spring, the wind blows a little warm on the face.

There weren't many people in the village who got up early, and when they arrived at the entrance of the village, they met Brother Da Lin.

Brother Da Lin asked. "Qingfeng, Yiyi, where are you going early in the morning?"

"Big brother, we're going to the town," Qingfeng said, according to the rhetoric discussed before, "My father's medicine is almost finished, and I'll go to the town to find a doctor to grab a few pairs." ”

Dalin said, "It just so happens that I'm going to go to town too, so I'll bring you two over." ”

"Then I'll trouble you, Brother Dalin." Bai Jiaojiao said. Then I got in the car and didn't say anything all the way. Qingfeng and Bai Jiaojiao arrived in town very early.

When it was very lively, Bai Jiaojiao and Qingfeng did not delay and went directly to the largest medicine hall in the town.

Although it is still early, there are already a lot of people in the medicine hall who see a doctor and grab medicine.

The young man saw Bai Jiaojiao and Qingfeng standing at the door looking around, so he stepped forward and asked, "Are you two going to take medicine or ask for a doctor?" ”

Qingfeng said, "Neither. ”

The little second looked at him strangely, "Then you are..., you just said that our medicine hall is the largest in this town, and there is nothing that cannot be done." ”

Bai Jiaojiao knew that Qingfeng was not a person who was very good at words, so she immediately stepped forward, looked at the shopkeeper with bright eyes and said, "This little brother, my brother and I dug up some herbs in the mountains, do you see if your medicine hall accepts them?" ”

Herbs?

The shopkeeper looked the two of them up and down, and laughed with a snort. "Little sister, little brother, don't dig up something, just send it to the medicine hall to cheat money."

His words caused laughter in the medicine hall, not to blame this young man, one is Bai Jiaojiao and Qingfeng, looking at Nian Bai, he is not big. And most people in the village don't know about these herbs. Some families also take anything casually and send it here to cheat some money.

"We don't have it, it's indeed a fixed wind grass, you can see if you can harvest it." Qingfeng said.

Bai Jiaojiao pulled Qingfeng and stepped forward to say to the young man. "The little second brother is real or fake, you can let your shopkeeper take a look, and it will be clear if you let the doctor in the hall come over to identify it."

"Oh, little girl, we don't have that idle time, you see there are so many people in our store, there are many people queuing up to grab medicine, where can we let the doctor sitting in the hall come and see, go and don't make trouble." Go play somewhere else. The little second brother waved his hand back and said impatiently.

Qingfeng took Bai Jiaojiao's hand and was about to go out, not wanting Bai Jiaojiao to be stunned, and looked back at the young man.

"Little second brother, in case this grass is real. If you drive us out and let your shopkeeper know, then you won't be able to make a difference, after all, this medicine is a good medicine, and you are in urgent need, and there is more than one medicine hall in this town, everyone wants good medicinal materials, right? ”

If you have good medicine in your hand, there will naturally be many people looking for you to see a doctor, and if the medicinal materials in your hands are not enough, the people who are looking for you are naturally looking for the good medicinal materials.

Bai Jiaojiao's words made the shopkeeper stunned for a moment.

The doctor sitting in the hall shouted at the young man, "Otherwise, let the shopkeeper come and take a look." Anyway, it's just a matter of a while, if it's true after reading it, stay it, if it's fake, it's not too late for you to kick people out. ”

As soon as the young man thought that this was indeed the reason, he asked Bai Jiaojiao and Qingfeng to wait in the medicine hall first, served a cup of tea, and then turned around and went to the pond to find the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper of the medicine hall was a slightly thin old man in his early sixties, wearing a blue-gray cotton straight coat, although his face looked old, some bent over, his eyes were very shrewd, he looked Bai Jiaojiao up and down, and finally fixed on Qingfeng's body.

"Young man, how are you going to sell these fixing grasses?"

The shopkeeper's words suddenly shocked everyone in the medicine hall, especially this young man secretly said that it was dangerous, fortunately he listened to the persuasion on the way, otherwise, he might have lost this livelihood.

looked at Bai Jiaojiao and them anxiously.

This Dingfeng grass is not an ordinary medicinal material, not to mention the large and small placed on the counter, all of them are evenly twine, the shoulders are wide and the meat is thick, and the appearance is also very good, does this cost more than a dozen taels of silver.

The young man's thoughts had just come to mind, and the shopkeeper also blinked shrewdly and looked at the windweed on the table.

Bai Jiaojiao said, "I will sell what others sell." ”

The shopkeeper frowned when he heard this, and stared at Bai Jiaojiao with displeasure.

He has read countless people, and he can naturally see at a glance that the two brothers and sisters, the elder brother is honest and innocent, this little girl has a pair of shrewd eyes, and she is also clever, so she knows that she is easy to fool.

"Yes, yes, my sister is right, we will sell what others sell," Qingfeng also said later.
