Chapter 41: Artemisia is a Vulgar Thing?
In the temple, the officials placed the offerings in an orderly manner.
After the offerings were arranged, Li Mojin stood at the front, followed by the people in the yamen who stood according to their grades, and then the wealthy merchants and gentry.
Under the auspices of the temple blessing, the ceremony of worshipping the god of the land began, and the crowd fell silent.
Li Mojin led everyone to offer incense and sacrificial wine.
Gu Jinxiu, who wanted to watch this scene, could only see the crowd of people, and she couldn't see the situation inside at all, so she felt that it was boring, so she jumped out of the ox cart.
Thinking that it was still early for their ordinary people to offer incense, they took out a book and looked at it leisurely.
I don't know how long it took, but the scene became noisy again.
"Hurry up, let's hurry up and line up, we won't be able to get the meat when it's late."
"I just saw a fat sheep in the county order, and a little fat pig in the Huang family......"
"You're still inking, hurry up and get in line."
“……”
Gu Jinxiu raised her head and looked at the people passing by chattering, knowing that the sacrifice was over, she glanced at the crowded crowd, shook her head slightly, and had no interest in going to the queue to receive meat.
Yu Guang saw that the mother and daughter of the He family and the Gao family looked eager to try, Gu Jinxiu hurriedly said: "Mother, don't go, if you want to eat, I will go to the county seat to buy it another day." ”
Now that the family has a business, the family's life has improved greatly, and He said: "This meat is different. This meat is the first batch of offerings, the first to enter the eyes of the land god, after eating, it can bring good luck, not to mention that this is still given by the county order! Last year, your aunt was in the village for a long time. ”
Now Gu Jinxiu understands that the He family wants to eat meat, and he is clearly comparing with the Li family!
Looking at the somewhat cute He family, Gu Jinxiu didn't point it out, and said with a smile: "Mother, I'll go to line up, you take Gao Ling'er to worship the land god, and the Gao family guards the stall." ”
She couldn't let Ho go, the crowd was prone to stampedes.
Gu Jinxiu was just about to leave, but was pulled by the He family.
Seeing the chaotic crowd, some people scolded, and some people were looking for children...... He also saw a person stealing things, afraid that Gu Jinxiu would be injured, and said uneasily: "Jinhao, why don't we use it?" ”
Gu Jinxiu raised her eyebrows, "Mother, if you think clearly, if you don't want it, it will be gone after a while?" ”
Just now she found out that some people line up separately as a family, and if they are lucky, the whole family can get meat, some people have queued up once, hide the meat and go again, and some people cut the line...... Look at this scene, there are so many people, that little thing is not enough!
Gu Jinxiu's mother and daughter were discussing whether to go, and the woman on the side almost gave the "mother and son" a big look.
If she hadn't guarded the stall, she would have followed to grab meat.
Her house hasn't smelled of meat for a while!
Alas, she thought that this place would be like in previous years, the county order would not come here, and the Huang family and the Gao family were very stingy, and most of the meat was taken by their own little people, and they couldn't grab the meat at all!
If she had known that this would happen, she should have brought her daughter-in-law with her.
While the woman was immersed in her own thoughts, Ho made a decision.
She doesn't want to take palm-sized meat.
She took advantage of the fact that everyone was queuing up to divide the meat, and took Gao and Gao Ling'er to incense.
And Gu Jinxiu looked at the endless stream of pilgrims, and didn't go to the incense, she felt that it was a good deal to make money!
Although many people go to the queue to receive meat, there are also people who are not uncommon.
Thinking of this, Gu Jinxiu began to shout and sell mugwort leaf baba.
Her shouting, though drowned out by the noisy crowd, still attracted guests, but it also attracted trouble.
Some people will pay to sell one or two after tasting mugwort leaf poop.
Some people tried it again and again, for these greedy people, Gu Jinxiu didn't stop it, she didn't want to lose a large number of customers because of this.
Some people have tasted it and think that the taste here is the same as that of the delicious building, and they will ask for a sentence or two.
In this regard, Gu Jinxiu will respond patiently.
In short, after the tasting, her mugwort leaf baba sold better than in the west of the city.
"Gu Jinhao, I didn't expect you to sell things here as a scholar, it's really insulting!"
An abrupt voice sounded, and Gu Jinxiu raised her eyes to see that several people wearing Qingshan Academy student uniforms were looking at her with disdain.
These people are really idle and have nothing to do, Gu Jinxiu didn't pay attention to these people, and continued to beckon people to buy Ai Ye Baba.
"Gu Jinhao, you used this vulgar thing to deceive everyone's money, and you became a scholar in vain."
In Dongxuanguo, mugwort is only eaten by the poor when they are so hungry that they can't help it, and most of the time it is used to repel mosquitoes.
Gu Jinxiu raised his eyes and looked, some people wanted to buy it, but they left because of this sentence, and some people pointed at this Ai Ye Baba.
In the midst of the discussion, she learned who the scholar was.
She glanced at the person opposite, a scholar, such a woman, and said coldly: "Liu Gongzi doesn't know, this vulgar thing is a good medicine, and the whole herb is used in medicine, which has the effects of warming the meridians, removing dampness, dissipating cold, and stabilizing the fetus. ”
After saying this, Gu Jinxiu looked around and saw that the person who was going to leave had come back again.
However, the scholars on the other side still looked disdainful, Gu Jinxiu was unhappy, and said coldly: "If you dislike it, don't bring this sachet made of mugwort leaves to repel mosquitoes in the future." ”
People here will pick the mugwort leaves and process them into sachets to repel mosquitoes, and many people will bring one of these sachets in summer, but for these scholars, they are not diligent in their limbs and do not distinguish between grains, how can they know.
"This son won't wear this vulgar thing, only a pariah like you will wear it."
As soon as Liu Gongzi said this, he didn't know that he had committed public anger.
Ai Ye is a vulgar thing in the hands of the untouchables, and if you don't know that it is a "jewel" in the hands of the nobles, how can you allow others to confuse it, isn't this belittling them?
Hearing this, the scholars who came with him all changed their faces.
Gu Jinxiu curled the corners of her lips and smiled, arguing with this person lowered her IQ, it was better to make money.
She didn't say anything, but someone didn't.
No, a sentence came abruptly from above the trees: "Vulgar thing, Liu Gongzi, your family shouldn't be disgusted with the gift given by the official!." ”
Everyone looked up slightly.
Gu Jinxiu was no exception, taking a step or two back, tilting his head slightly to see Li Mojin standing on the tree.
When did this person go up, she didn't notice it at all, frowned slightly and glanced at it a few times, seeing that this person had no intention of coming down, Gu Jinxiu turned her head to look at Liu Gongzi and the others, and their faces were really indescribable at this time.
Retracting her gaze, Gu Jinxiu lowered her head and took out the mugwort leaf baba from the back basket and put it in the spare space on the small table.
