Chapter Twenty-Three: Pills

After Gao Jing stayed in the Wudang faction for a few more days, he said goodbye to the head and Master Zhang.

Because the scenery on the side of the road has been seen when I came, and I was a little homesick after a long time, I accelerated when I went back, and I walked for a month when I came, and it only took 20 days to get home when I went back!

After the second uncle led Gao Jing and them to greet Grandpa Gao, he glanced at Grandpa Gao when they were greeting the three brothers of Gao Jing, and Grandpa Gao understood: "If you have anything to say, I will talk about it tomorrow, Yang'er, Xing'er, Chen'er, Lang'er, Yu'er, Jing'er and I will go to the study!" After speaking, he led Gao Jing and them to the study.

Grandpa Gao instructed the housekeeper to close the doors and windows of the study and let the housekeeper personally guard the door, and then said to the second uncle: "Say something!" ”

Gao Erbo took out the jade bottle he was carrying and poured out the pill, and a strong scent of danxiang immediately spread in all directions. Grandpa Gao immediately said sternly: "Hurry up and put the pill into the jade bottle cap!" ”

The second uncle of high school asked in confusion while putting away the pill as instructed: "What's the matter, father?" ”

Grandpa Gao explained: "The pill can maintain its medicinal properties when placed in the jade bottle, and once the jade bottle is taken out, it is easy to lose the medicinal properties!" ”

After hearing this, the second uncle suddenly realized: "I see! ”

"Where did this elixir come from?" Grandpa Gao asked solemnly.

"This was sent by Grandmaster Zhang, the head of the Wudang faction!" Gao Erbo explained: "When we escorted the grain to the foot of Wudang Mountain, we found that Master Zhang was chased and killed by the man in black, so I led the brothers of the dart bureau to help Master Zhang, and then escorted them back to the Wudang faction. ”

"What kind of elixir is this?" Grandpa Gao asked.

"Barrier Breaking Pill" Gao Erbo explained: "The head of the sect said that taking this pill is used by the breakthrough grandmaster or the great grandmaster, and it can make the martial arts directly advance to the first level, and there are no side effects!" ”

"Is there really such an elixir in the world? I always thought it was a legend! Gao Yu exclaimed.

"You guys are rare and weird," Grandpa Gao explained, "Grandmaster Zhang of the Wudang Sect is not only outstanding in martial arts, but also very good at alchemy, and only Grandmaster Zhang can refine a grade of pills like the Barrier Breaking Pill!" ”

"The problem is that there is only one pill, who will use it for?" Uncle Gao asked.

"The key is to be able to do martial arts, the three of you brothers can't use martial arts, so you can only use them for Lang'er!" Grandpa Gao said!

"Then they are also brothers!" The sophomore in high school said with a general feeling.

"Lang'er, what do you think you think?" Grandpa Gao asked.

Gao Lang pondered for a while and said, "Grandpa, I won't consider this elixir, you can ask the second and third brothers!" ”

"Oh, why?" Grandpa Gao asked.

"Grandpa, you also know that my martial arts qualifications are average, and I missed the best time when I learned martial arts, and I won't have any great achievements in martial arts in this life, and there is no hope of breaking through the grandmaster, if the pill is used by me, it will be wasted!" Gao Lang said sincerely.

"Okay then," Grandpa Gao sighed, "What about Yu'er?" ”

"I won't think about it either, let's give the pill to the third brother, the third brother has the best qualifications for martial arts." Gao Yu said sincerely.

"No regrets?" Grandpa Gao asked seriously.

"Don't regret it, grandpa, you also know that the third brother has the highest martial arts talent among the three of our brothers, and he is diligent and hard working in martial arts, and the pill can give the third brother its value!" Gao Yu explained.

"In that case, I'll give Jing'er the elixir." Grandpa Gao is in charge.

Grandpa Gao handed the pill to Gao Jing and said, "Jing'er take it, this is your brother's intention!" ”

Gao Jing took the pill and thanked sincerely: "Thank you, eldest brother and second brother!" ”

Gao Lang Gao Yu waved his hand and said in unison: "What do you thank your brother, besides, the pill can only give full play to its greatest value!" ”

Gao Jing nodded after hearing this and stopped talking, but put this friendship in his heart!

Grandpa Gao looked at the scene of their brothers' harmony and said happily: "Although treasures are rare, friendship is even more rare. As long as you brothers can always be so humble to each other, understand each other, and support each other, why worry about my Gao family! ”

Gao Jing and the others immediately said in unison: "Follow Grandpa's teachings!" ”

"Although the elixir was given to Jing'er, if you get other treasures in the future, only Lang'er and Yu'er can choose, and Jing'er will no longer have the right to choose, do you understand?" Grandpa Gao said solemnly.

"Yes, Grandpa!" Gao Jing and they were convinced.

Grandpa Gao took out an account book from the drawer and handed it to Uncle Gao: "Jing'er boiled refined white sugar and fruit candy according to an ancient recipe, and handed over the tools and methods of sugar making to me, I asked the shopkeeper Fang to open a shop to sell these, it has been open for more than a month, this is last month's account book, you pass it to each other!" ”

"This ...... This net profit is 10,000 taels a month? "Uncle Gao is incredible!

After hearing this, the second uncle snatched the account book and carefully calculated: "There are really so many!" ”

Grandpa Gao nodded and said, "There are so many, I didn't believe it when I first saw the account book, and I asked the housekeeper to recalculate it!" ”

"Is there anything my father has to say when we show us the ledger?" Father Gao asked.

"I'd like to tell you about the split!" Grandpa Gao said.

"This shop uses Jing'er's recipe, how can we as elders take advantage of the younger generations, we can't ask for this share!" Uncle Gao said sincerely!

"Although Jing'er's recipe is used, the shop is at home, and the shopkeeper and the guys who work in it are also servants of the family, so this shop belongs to the whole family. Jing'er, you don't have a problem with what Grandpa said, right? Grandpa Gao said.

"Back to grandpa, grandson has no opinion!" Gao Jing replied sincerely.

"Okay, then I'll call the shots!" Grandpa Gao said: "I and your three brothers are one and a half percent, and the remaining forty percent is for Jing'er!" After all, the recipe for boiling sugar was provided by Jing'er. Any of you have an opinion to mention! Grandpa Gao said openly.

"We all have no opinion!" The tall uncle and the second uncle said in unison.

"That's good, in addition to talking about the share of the shop today, in fact, I also want to divide the family!" Grandpa Gao said.

As soon as Grandpa Gao's words fell, Gao Jing and the others all knelt on the ground, and Uncle Gao said eagerly: "But what did my son do wrong?" Father wants to split up? ”

Grandpa Gao waved his hand and said, "You are all very good, I want to divide the family myself!" ”

"Parents are here, and there is no separation of families. The son does not agree to the separation! The second uncle said resolutely.

"My son is reluctant to let you and his mother be separated!" Father Gao also refused.

Grandpa Gao smiled with satisfaction and said, "We are very relieved that you care so much about me and your mother, but what I said about dividing the family is dividing the property and not separating!" ”

"What do you mean? Even after we separated, we still lived together, right? The second uncle asked uncertainly.

"Yes." Grandpa Gao nodded and said: "In a blink of an eye, your children are so old, your mother and I are also old, and they are going to study in other places after the New Year, and I don't know if I can come back once in a few years, while the family is complete, I will divide the family property!" ”

Father Gao, they saw that Grandpa Gao's resolute attitude compromised and agreed!

"The gold and silver fields and shops in the family are divided into four parts, and your mother and I have one share, and each of your three brothers has one share. Your eldest brother is the eldest son, and your mother and I will belong to your eldest brother in a hundred years, including this house, do you three brothers have any opinions? Grandpa Gao asked.

"No comments!" The three of them said in unison.

Grandpa Gao saw that they really had no opinion and said happily: "Since there is no opinion, then it is decided, and I will go to the county office tomorrow to make the deed." ”

After Grandpa Gao finished talking about the shop and the separation, he said seriously, "Lang'er, Yu'er, Jing'er, it's been two months since the college exam, and the rewards you want have been given, and you want to go out and relax, now it's time to collect your heart and review your homework." Matsuyama Academy is the best academy except for Guozijian, and the entrance exam is very strict, and grandpa hopes that you can all enter the academy when the time comes! ”

"Yes, Grandpa!" Gao Jing and the others replied in unison.

"Then from tomorrow onwards, you will still go to the study room of the outer courtyard to study, and I will let your second uncle guard you!" Grandpa Gao arranged.

"But father, I still have to take care of the fields and shops!" The sophomore in high school said in a hurry.

"What could be more important than a child's reading? I'll find someone else to take care of the business for you for the time being! Grandpa Gao said.

"Yes, Father!" The second uncle replied.

"Everything has been discussed, you can go back!" Grandpa Gao said. Gao Jing and they bowed down together and retired!
