Chapter Ninety-Three: The Widow, Mother and Daughter

"Or ...... Let's do it - I Gu Wu returned to my hometown, and I was taken care of by the villagers, and I was very grateful in my heart, and I always thought about what I could do for the villagers...... That's it, the children who came to the city this time will live in a big kang room tonight, and the house money is mine! Gu Xiao waved his hand generously.

Those villagers who were reluctant to pay for their children to live on the ondol all smiled gratefully when they heard this. The children thanked Grandpa Gu one after another and walked into the big kang room excitedly.

Widow Li glanced at her daughter, sighed in her heart, and stepped forward with the villagers to express her gratitude to Gu Xiao. Li Xiu's red eyes dimmed for a moment, and the disappointment in her heart was inevitable. Still, she thanked her very politely.

The children almost filled the entire kang. There are not many girls who came with them, except for Gu Ye and Li Xiuhong, there are also Yinggu. Yinggu came in at her own expense, and she has already been engaged to a postnatal in a village on the outskirts of the town, and she will marry in the winter next year. The third grandmother felt sorry for her, so she was naturally reluctant to let her suffer from the cold outside.

Yinggu patted the kang head and said to Li Xiuhong: "Hong'er, the kang head is warm, you can sleep here." ”

Li Xiuhong lowered her head, responded like a mosquito, took off her shoes and lay down on the kang. Ying Gu glanced at her strangely, then turned her head to Gu Ye and said, "Ye'er, you sleep on the other side of me, let's sleep with the three girls." ”

The big kang room is not good at this point, men and women are not separated, which is also the reason why many daughters-in-law are reluctant to spend money to come in. Fortunately, most of the children in this big kang room were children from Qingshan Village, and Gu Ye and the three of them were crowded in the innermost part of the kang, and Gu Ming and Gu Xiao were next to Gu Ye, separating the three girls from the other half-grown children.

Everyone slept in their clothes, and Gu Ye draped the big coat on himself. After a day's journey, the tired children soon began to snore. Gu Ye seemed to be sleeping in a non-sleeping room, and felt that someone had touched the big on his body.

opened his eyes and saw Li Xiuhong sitting on the kang, through the sleeping Yinggu, gently stroked her fox fur twice, let out a slight sigh, and fell asleep again. Although he was a little displeased with Li Xiuhong's vanity, Gu Ye could still understand a child's desire for things that he couldn't get.

Gu Ye was woken up by the noise outside. The sky outside was already clouded with bright colors, and when I looked back, Li Xiuhong had already left the room, and Yinggu was rubbing her eyes and yawning. On the other side, except for two or three stinky boys, who were still snoring, everyone else had already gotten up.

After washing, he ate a few bacon rice balls to fill his stomach, and Gu Ye followed everyone on the road again. Bacon rice balls are dry food made for them by Aunt Yan at the suggestion of Gu Ye, salty, fragrant and delicious, fast and convenient, and very suitable for going out to eat.

Gu Ye noticed that Widow Li's mother and daughter kept a certain distance from her, intentionally or unintentionally. Li Xiuhong's gaze still glanced at her through the crowd from time to time, and when she looked over, she quickly moved away.

Gu Ye shrugged her shoulders secretly, she didn't pay special attention to irrelevant people.

In the evening, a group of people arrived in town. Separated from the villagers at the entrance of the town, Gu Ye's grandfather and grandson went straight to Jimin Hall.

Night is gradually covering this mountain town, and the shops on both sides of the street are closed. The dim lights were lit in the Baicao Hall, and a handsome young man in white came out of the shop and met Gu Ye and the others.

When Zhao Mingxi saw Gu Ye, he was stunned for a moment, and a bright smile bloomed on Sven's handsome face: "Miss Gu, but you just arrived in town?" Have you found a place to stay? If not, I rented a small courtyard in the town, and my mother and I lived together. If you don't dislike it......"

"Thank you for the kindness of the tenth prince, I received it at night. We have a place to stay in the town, so we won't cause trouble to the tenth prince. Gu Ye didn't want to have too much intersection with the Zhao family, so he politely rejected Zhao Mingxi.

Zhao Mingxi smelled the medicinal fragrance emanating from the basket on horseback, and said with a smile: "Miss Gu, this is sending medicinal materials to Jimintang?" My eldest brother highly respects Miss Gu's pharmaceutical skills and hopes to have the opportunity to cooperate with Miss Gu in the future. ”

Jimin Tong recently launched a sweet medicine suitable for children, which caused a stir in several prefectures. The most surprising thing is that this kind of children's medicine, which could have been speculated at sky-high prices, is only sold for tens to 100 yuan.

In order to prevent malicious hoarding of children's medicines, children under the age of five must have been diagnosed at Jimin Tong to be eligible to buy medicines. Medicines must be taken at Jimin Hall, and take-out is prohibited.

No matter whether they are rich or poor, children are the treasures of the family, and even the children of ordinary people can afford to eat dozens of medicines. Although the taste of children's medicine is sweet, the effect is not as bad as that of the decoction, and it is even stronger. Most children can be cured after two days of taking medicine. The reputation of Jimin Hall in these cities has skyrocketed, and the common people call Jimin Hall a living Bodhisattva who saves suffering!

Zhao Mingxi has analyzed with Brother Lobby that these prefectures are precisely the cities closest to the nameless town, plus the Jimin Hall in the town, which is the first to launch children's medicine. Before the introduction of children's medicine, the little girl of the Gu family had been in contact with the three masters of Jimin Tang. This confirms the speculation of Zhao Minglin, the future head of the family-children's medicine is absolutely inseparable from the little girl of the Gu family!

Zhao Mingxi asked tentatively: "The girl's new children's medicine has benefited countless sick children. The low price was set by the girl, right? The girl is really good-natured, and let the Jimin Hall take the credit. ”

"Zhao Shigongzi, are you sowing discord?" Gu Ye raised his eyebrows and asked very directly. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: Sure enough, those born in a big family can't have a simple heart, this Zhao Mingxi looks like a gentle and pure little sheep, but he didn't expect that he would have a yin behind him.

Zhao Mingxi came to the conclusion that the little girl didn't like others to play in front of her from the analysis of the lobby brother, and hurriedly explained: "Mingxi didn't mean this, just held grievances for the girl." ”

"I asked Uncle Bai to hide his identity as a pharmaceutical man. Zhao Shigongzi, have you ever heard of the allusion of 'Huaibi his sin'? At this time, she has not grown enough to protect herself. If you rashly disclose your identity, it will be like a child holding a big gold ingot, and the final result can be imagined. However, she believes that one day, she will become the object of pharmacists and pharmacists like Master!

Zhao Mingxi is not stupid, a trace of understanding flashed in his eyes when he heard this, and he nodded: "It's my villain's heart." I didn't expect Miss Gu to think so carefully! It's not too early, so Ming Xi won't delay Miss Gu's business. Goodbye! ”

Gu Ye had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, bowed slightly at him, and said goodbye to him.

Gu Ming scratched her head and asked puzzledly, "Sister, what does this young owner of Baicaotang mean by stopping you?" Just to fight for you? ”

"It's just one aspect of not feeling worthwhile for me." Gu Ye paused, glanced back at the slender figure that disappeared in the night, and smiled, "Brother, think about it, if Jimintang hadn't been instructed by me to hide my identity as a children's medicine maker, what kind of consequences would he have brought if he had unintentionally reminded me?" ”

"Jimintang has improved its prestige by stepping on your sister, you have been robbed of the credit for nothing, even if you don't break with Jimintang, you will have a pimple in your heart. Even if a new drug is issued in the future, it will not cooperate with Jimintang. After the two-year cooperation period expires, I may be grateful for Baicaotang's reminder and turn to cooperate with them......" Gu Ming's brows gradually furrowed, and he sighed and said, "These people who do business have bent intestines. Sister, when you deal with them, you must be careful and careful. ”

Gu Ye showed a confident smile: "Brother, don't worry!" There is a plane tree at home, but you are worried about attracting the golden phoenix? As long as you have good medicine in hand, can you miss the object of cooperation? Pay the money with one hand and the medicine with the other, I can't afford to lose! ”

Gu Xiao quietly listened to the conversation between his grandson and granddaughter, and said that he had a pair of smart and capable grandchildren, and he was a grandfather.

When the three grandfathers and grandsons came to the Jimintang Pharmacy, the young man in the store was on the door board, preparing to close. Seeing Gu Ye's appearance clearly, the young man threw the door panel as if he had seen a ghost, and ran into the inner hall quickly.

Gu Ye and grandpa and brother, you look at me, I look at you, with an inexplicable expression. Just as he was puzzled, Bai Jingxuan walked out of the shop quickly, with a big smile on his face, and greeted him enthusiastically: "Miss Gu, I finally look forward to you!" Hurry, hurry, house please! ”

"Third Uncle Bai, you little guy is really interesting! I'm wondering if it's become ugly these days, scaring people so much that they even throw away the door panel! Gu Ye couldn't help but laugh and teased.

The young man blushed and hurriedly lowered his head to pick up the door. Bai Jingxuan laughed: "I tell him every day that when he sees Miss Gu, he must report it quickly." He was too excited to make such a rude gesture. I'll take a sin for him and the girl. ”

"Third Uncle Bai is serious!" Gu Ye entered the backyard familiarly. The shopkeeper in the shop, with the guys in the shop, unloaded the medicinal herbs on the horse's back, and led the horses into the stable of the back house, and took care of them with good water and good materials.

After the group sat down, Bai Jingxuan instructed the waiting girl and said, "Go, make a few cups of my newly acquired best silver quill tea and entertain your guests." ”

Gu Xiao politely excused himself and said, "Master Bai San is too polite, such a good tea, it's too bad for us rough people to drink!" For the bitter tea, Gu Xiao said that he was unable to appreciate it.

"Look at what Fifth Master Gu said, how can it be called waste? Miss Gu is our little lucky star in Jimin Hall, you are her family, so naturally you want to be the best to entertain you. The three of you haven't eaten dinner yet, have you? Go, ask the kitchen to fry a few good dishes, and I'll accompany Gu Wuye to have two cups today. Bai Jingxuan thought of the benefits of children's medicine to Jimintang, and his excitement was difficult to suppress.
