Chapter 438: Speculation
The day after the end of the competition, the envoys from various countries did not leave, only the envoys from Beiming hurriedly returned.
However, Emperor Junming and his crown princess, Jia Jingyun stayed.
Nalan Jinnian rewarded each soldier with ten taels of silver, allowing the soldiers of Nalan to rest for a day before leaving for China the next day.
The soldiers of Nalan Kingdom happily took the silver and went to buy gifts for their families.
To be able to envoy to the Tanglin Kingdom and win a city is the supreme glory, and of course it is worth buying some Tanglin specialties to go back to commemorate it.
Nuan and Nalan Jinnian also went out shopping.
Girls are by nature to buy some clothes and jewelry when they go shopping.
Warmth is no exception, but she also goes to the pharmacy and bookstore.
Nalan Jinnian patiently accompanied her to buy a bunch of clothes, fabrics and jewelry, as well as many miscellaneous small items, and went to the bookstore to buy a lot of books that Nalan Country did not have, such as local logs, local customs, books and other books.
Nuan also went to the second-hand bookstore and bought a lot of old books.
Even Wan Yun followed and bought a lot of things.
Soon, the carriage was almost full!
Seeing this, Nalan Jinnian said to Thunder: "You go buy a carriage and come over!" ”
Otherwise, when I go back, it is estimated that there will not be enough carriages.
When Wen Wen heard this, he said, "Buy two!" ”
The corners of Thunder's mouth twitched: "....... Be! ”
Women, shopping in the streets, terrifying!
After selling ordinary items, Nuan Nuan pulled Nalan Jinnian to the largest pharmacy.
Nuan planned to go through all the large and small pharmacies in the imperial capital of the Tanglin Kingdom, and buy some of the pills and medicinal wine from each pharmacy and send them back to Wen Ran, which was given to Wen Ran for research.
She can give a general idea of the medicinal materials and ingredients in it when she smells it, but Wen Ran can't, she is relatively weak in this side, so when she has the opportunity to go out, Wen Wen plans to buy more and go back for her to practice.
The two walked into the pharmacy and saw several more people queuing up to grab medicine.
The people in line are a family, and they are poor people who look at the clothes.
A couple with three and a half years old and many children came to grab medicine.
The whole family was there coughing.
The woman was holding a child of five or six years old in her arms, who was asleep, but unsteady in his sleep, coughing from time to time.
The woman touched his forehead with a worried expression.
Apparently it's a fever!
Warm wrung eyebrows.
Seeing this, Nalan Jinnian asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Wen Wen shook her head, there was no diagnosis, and she was not sure.
At this time, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy grabbed a few packets of medicine and gave it to the man: "Three bowls of water are fried into one bowl of water!" Half a bowl at a time for children, one bowl at a time for adults! This is three days of medicine, a total of 100 Wen! ”
The man hurriedly took out a string of money and gave it to the shopkeeper.
When the shopkeeper saw that their family was sick, he said, "Your family is all sick, is the medicine enough to catch only one person?" ”
The man looked embarrassed when he heard this: "Enough! This medicine is drunk by the children first, and we adults just drink the medicine from the pot. ”
When the shopkeeper heard this, he also knew that it was not easy for poor people to see a doctor, so he said: "The medicinal effect of stirring decoction is not so strong, but it is better than not taking any medicine at all!" You adults drink the decoction medicine, you might as well stir the decoction a few more times, when it is tea, it is also good to drink more tea! ”
The man smiled and said, "Thank you, shopkeeper, we know!" ”
In fact, if anyone in the family is sick, the medicine they take home is repeatedly decocted in water, until the herbs have no taste at all, and they are willing to throw it away.
A few people grabbed the medicine, and the man took the child in the woman's arms and left the pharmacy.
Nuan Wen stepped forward and said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, I am about to be discharged from the hospital, and I will prepare a copy of every pill, medicinal wine, and medicinal powder in your pharmacy!" ”
Shopkeeper: "Just go out and prepare some wind chill pills and antidiarrheal pills, right?" ”
Wen Wen smiled: "My father said that it is better to be prepared, and to be prepared!" There are young and old people in the family! Shopkeeper, you can prepare a copy of the pills, medicinal wine, and medicinal powder in my pharmacy! ”
"Haha, your dad is cautious, okay! This is for you! The shopkeeper knew that there was no shortage of silver when he saw the clothes of the two, and he didn't look like a person from the Tanglin Kingdom when he listened to the accent, so he didn't persuade him anymore.
Turn around and grab the medicine.
At this time, the family happened to be at the door, and they saw two acquaintances greeting each other.
"Aunt Li, Uncle Li, you are also here to grab medicine?"
Uncle Li: "No, your aunt has been infected with wind chill and cough and fever in the past few days!" Why are you taking the medicine? ”
Uncle Li coughed twice after speaking.
Aunt Li's face was a little pale, she looked tired, and she coughed non-stop.
"We also have a fever, this weather is too repeated, some time ago the weather was quite warm, suddenly it was cold again, the shop at home is thin, and we are cold at night! Uncle Li, Aunt Li, let's go back first, Xiaobao is still hot, we have to go back and decoct him quickly!"
"Do you want to wait for me, I'm driving the ox cart, and it's faster to get back to the village."
"That's a good feeling! Thank you, Uncle Li. When the man heard this, he was not polite.
It's really that he himself is uncomfortable, and his hands holding the child are a little weak.
"What's polite, it's all from the same village, the neighbors, you go to the ox cart and wait for us outside! I'll grab the medicine first! ”
After Uncle Li finished speaking, he came in and lined up.
A village? Wen Wen listened to the conversation between the two, and she glanced back at Uncle Li and Aunt Li.
Uncle Li was coughing.
Aunt Li's face was pale, her whole face was tired, she was still covering her chest with her hands, and the exposed half of her arm was a little red, as if she had been bitten by some insect.
She was coughing too.
The symptoms of these two people are so similar to those of the family just now.
A village, with the same disease?
Warmth is suspected of being plague.
Nuan couldn't help but ask: "What village are you from, this old man?" Do you know where Xinghua Village is? ”
"We are from Apliu Village. Xinghua Village is in the village next door to us! However, many towns have Xinghua Village, and you are talking about Xinghua Village in that town! We are the town of Three Rivers! ”
"It just so happens that I'm looking for Xinghua Village in Sanhe Town." Warm pretended to gossip and said: "Mother-in-law seems to be very sick!" Why didn't you bring her to see the doctor earlier? Was her red arm bitten by some bug? It's not summer yet, how can there be mosquitoes? ”
"The old woman didn't want to come a few days ago, but she said that she would be fine in a few days! I didn't expect it to get more and more serious, but the doctor said that it was just a cold and fever, and said that he was not energetic, and he would be fine if he took medicine for a few days! It was bitten by a flea on top of a rat. Not bugs! Nothing big! ”
At this time, Aunt Li coughed up a mouthful of phlegm, she spit on a yellowed handkerchief, and she saw a little bloodshot warmly.
She was almost sure of her guess.
