Chapter 58: Pinkey Eye Is Everywhere
"Could it be...... The 'quick-acting heart-saving pill' that can snatch people back from the hands of King Yama, aren't you curious? Zhao Minglin had an inexplicable smile on his face.
"That's right! What kind of 'heart-saving pill', except for Miss Gu, there is also Ding Mansion! Whether the little girl is a disciple of the Medicine Saint or not, you will find out when you go to the Ding Mansion. The stocky man looked surprised.
Zhao Minglin shook his head slowly and said, "You will be mistaken!" Whether that little girl is a disciple of the Medicine Saint or not is not so important anymore. I have a hunch that within five years, her achievements in pharmaceuticals will definitely not be lower than those of Baili Pharmacist. If we can win her over, Baicaotang will once again become the leader in the pharmaceutical industry! ”
Gu Ye, who had completed today's shopping task, suddenly felt a chill down his spine on the way back to Jimin Hall with his brother. She frowned, with her astonishing instincts in her previous life, someone must be calculating her.
"Brother, if someone surnamed Zhao accostes you in the future, don't reveal any news about our family." Gu Ye couldn't help but tell his brother.
Gu Ming asked suspiciously, "You mean, those people you met in the jewelry shop today?" The mother and daughter don't seem to be easy to get along with, and the short and fat man also looks treacherous. However, that Young Master Zhao was kind and polite. ”
Gu Ye stretched out his index finger and shook it in front of him, saying, "It's the opposite. As the so-called dog that bites people doesn't bark, this Zhao Dashao is definitely not a simple character. A person like ours who has a intestine that leads to the end was sold by him and helped him count the silver! Therefore, we should stay away from such people. ”
Gu Ming nodded and agreed: "Say yes." I heard that Baicaotang is a more famous pharmacy than Jimintang, how can the eldest young master of their family be a simple character? The reason why they are so polite to us is just the medicine made by you, sister. ”
As he spoke, he came to the backyard of the Jimin Hall. After taking two pairs of medicines, Yan Qiutong, who was resting on the kang, no longer coughed so much, and the high fever that tortured her for two days also subsided a lot. The old doctor sitting in Jimin Hall, after re-examining her pulse, was amazed at her recovery ability.
Gu Ye took her temperature with her hands, and she still had a low-grade fever, so she added another dose of medicine to the medicine she drank at night.
In the evening, considering Aunt Yan's current physical condition, coupled with the courtesy's retention, the Gu Ye brothers and sisters rested in the guest room in the backyard of Jimin Hall.
Early the next morning, Aunt Yan's fever completely subsided, her spirit was much better, and she ate two bowls of porridge for breakfast. Gu Ye was afraid that Aunt Yan's sick and weak body would not be able to sustain a whole day's long journey, so he wanted to leave her in Jimin Hall to recuperate, and the shopkeeper took care of her. However, Aunt Yan insisted on going on the road with her, saying that she was much better.
Seeing that her attitude was so resolute, coupled with her confidence in her potion, Gu Ye agreed. Hung four baskets full of New Year's goods on the back of the mule, and helped Aunt Yan to a sturdy mule, and the brother and sister stepped on the morning light and walked on the way home.
Aunt Jiu's family has been waiting at the entrance of the town for a long time. Seeing that the bamboo basket full of grain on Uncle Jiu's back was very heavy, Gu Ming took off some light New Year's goods on the mule's back, and freed up to put the heavy New Year's goods of Uncle Jiu's house.
Two mules, each of which can carry more than 200 catties of weight. One horse carried the skinny Aunt Yan, and the rice and noodles that Gu Ye bought, and after putting other New Year's goods on the other, it was more than enough to put the New Year's goods of Uncle Jiu's family on it. Gu Ming was reluctant to let her sister be tired, so she urged her to ride on it too.
With two heavy mules, the group traveled lightly, and the speed was naturally much faster. Although the departure was a little late, on the mountain-like path, it quickly caught up with the large army in the village.
Seeing the fat mule led by Gu Ming, I don't know who it was, and said sourly: "Gu Ming, your family has made a fortune?" Not to mention the goods purchased for so many years, I also bought two mules. This mule alone costs a dozen taels to say the least, right? ”
Gu Ming noticed that there seemed to be something more in the eyes of the villagers, and hurriedly said: "These two mules were borrowed from the shopkeeper of Jimin Hall. ”
"Jimin Hall? How could they lend you mules? It was Li Zhuzi's daughter-in-law who spoke, Li Zhuzi had a little relationship with the village chief, and his daughter-in-law always felt that she was superior in the village, and she couldn't see others better than herself.
After all, Gu Ming was a child less than twelve, he couldn't hide the pride in his eyes, looked at Gu Ye and said, "The medicine made by my sister, the shopkeeper of Jimin Hall thinks it's good, so let's send it to them every month." We bought a lot of New Year's goods, and the shopkeeper of Jimin Hall was a good man, so he lent us the mule for use. I'll give them back the next time I come to town. ”
Li Zhuzi's daughter-in-law glanced at the goods on the mule, smacked her lips and said, "Xiao Ye'er is really capable!" You sold that medicine for a lot of money, didn't it? I bought so much rice noodles alone. ”
Aunt Jiu sighed deliberately and said, "These New Year's goods are not only for the two children, but also for us." You said that these two children really can't live. The money from selling medicines is all used to buy New Year's goods, and I don't know how to save it. ”
Li Zhuzi's daughter-in-law listened to this, and her face was slightly better. She pouted and said, "It's still someone Gu Ye'er who has the ability, and these old goods are worth two or three taels of silver, right?" Anyway, people still have to deliver goods to Jimintang next month, can they still lack silver? ”
Liu San'er, who had a good relationship with Gu Qiao, deliberately amplified his voice and said, "Oops! Don't be fooled by these two kids! ”
"They sell medicine, and people give money from Jimintang, how can they be deceived? You can't look at people's goodness! Another villager shook his head and laughed.
Liu San'er looked at the brother and sister and said, "Have you two signed a contract with someone?" ”
Seeing that the brother and sister nodded, he said with a playful face: "In our mountain, I don't know when the snow will close the mountain after winter." If you can't get out of the mountain on the day of the medicine delivery next month, then you have broken the contract, and you will have to pay double the silver. ”
When Uncle Nine heard this, he looked at Gu Ye worriedly and asked, "Hurry up and take out the contract and let Brother Qi show you if there is any content about liquidated damages." ”
Gu Ye looked at the Liu family who was gloating, and said to Gu Mo with a smile: "Uncle Nine, don't worry." Renjia Jimintang has branches in many prefectures and counties, and it is a big business, and our little silver is similar to a mosquito's leg in the eyes of others. What is worth being deceived by others? ”
"Say yes! Jimintang's reputation has always been good, Tong Su is not deceived, it shouldn't be deceiving, right? Gu Mo was still a little unsteady in his heart, but he couldn't make any effort. He was looking forward to Gu Xiao coming back quickly. The fifth uncle is not here, he feels that he has a great responsibility!
"Ride a big horse! Sister, I'm going to ride a big horse too! Xiao Zhuang rubbed his sleepy eyes, and when he saw Gu Ye riding on a mule, there was a look of envy in his eyes. In the past few days, Liu was so tired that he didn't want to speak, and he didn't brainwash the little guy. In addition, Gu Ye gave him fragrant cakes, and his attitude towards Gu Ye was much better, unlike before, he "lost money" one by one.
Gu Qiao and Liu, one of them carried a basket of heavy New Year's goods, and Gu Qiao still had to hold the fat little Zhuang, and it didn't take long for him to start panting. He cast his expectant gaze on Gu Ye on the mule's back.
Although Gu Ming was very disappointed in Gu Qiao's father, Xiao Zhuang was his younger brother after all, and what the child knew, everything he did before was picked up by the Liu family.
When she received her sister's understanding gaze, Gu Ming was slightly moved in her heart. He turned to Xiao Zhuang and said, "You follow your sister on a big horse, you have to listen to your sister's words, you can't move, and you can't scold your sister casually." If you can do it, not only will you be allowed to ride a horse, but you will also be rewarded with a piece of white sugar cake to eat! ”
"Yes, yes! I am obedient, I don't scold, I don't move...... I'm hungry, can I eat cake now? "Xiao Zhuang didn't wake up yet, he was carried and set off, and his little stomach was hungry at this time.
Gu Ye took Xiao Zhuang, let him sit in his arms, took out a meat bun from the baggage, and said, "The bun is still hot, eat the bun first." My brother said that only good children can eat white sugar cakes! ”
Xiao Zhuang, who was about to grin and eat white sugar cakes, after hearing this, flattened his mouth and took the bun a little reluctantly. When he ate the meat buns with thin skin and many fillings, all his unhappy emotions were left behind, and he ate two meat buns the size of an adult's fist.
After eating, Xiao Zhuang sat on the back of the mule, and looked around excitedly at first, but after the freshness passed, he began to yawn a little, and leaned on Gu Ye's arms and fell asleep.
In the evening, I still rested in the large courtyard halfway through. Because the two families bought a lot of New Year's goods, Gu Mo was not at ease, so he gritted his teeth and spent two people's money, and went into the house to live for one night. There are two adults staring, and some people with ulterior motives don't dare to hit the idea of two children's New Year's goods.
The return journey was a full two-day mountain road, and it was good that they had mules to carry the goods, but most of the villagers carried heavy New Year's goods, and their footsteps became heavier and heavier. When I got back to the village, it was already late at night.
When I went, many people helped the brothers and sisters share the weight of the medicinal herbs. On the way back, Gu Ming also took turns to help the villagers who had helped them carry the New Year's goods. On the last ten miles of mountain roads, Gu Ye got off the mule's back, let the mule and horse out, and helped the villagers who couldn't carry the goods. Even Li Zhuzi's daughter-in-law was stained, and she couldn't say the sour words of Gu Ye's brothers and sisters.
When he got home, Gu Ye first settled Aunt Yan in his house. After two days of rushing in a row, she was weak, and if Gu Ye's medicine was not supported, she would have collapsed long ago. Tired, she fell asleep as soon as she touched the kang.
Yao Sheng heard the movement, put on his clothes and walked out of the house, and saw Gu Ming moving things down from the mule's back, and also came over to help. Not seeing his apprentice, the Medicine Saint asked with concern, "Where is Xiao Yezi?" You're not going to throw her in town, are you? ”
"Master! I haven't seen you for five days, and you miss me? Gu Ye hurriedly stopped the master and stuffed the snacks he bought for him into his arms. Yao Sheng is already seventy years old, and she is reluctant to let her master do heavy work.
