Chapter Seventy-Four: Asking for Help
"Jing'er, just say whatever you want."
Although Chu Xintian didn't look at Bai Yongjing, she could feel Bai Yongjing looking up at her face.
"Mother, are you still angry with me?"
Because Chu Xintian ignored Bai Yongjing, Bai Yongjing was very anxious.
"Mother is not angry. Didn't you just be obedient? If you do well, your mother won't be angry. ”
Chu Xintian lowered his head and looked at Bai Yongjing.
"Really?" Bai Yongjing was still a little skeptical.
"Of course it's true, my mother won't lie to you."
Chu Xintian smiled at him.
Seeing Chu Xintian's smile, Bai Yongjing breathed a long sigh of relief and finally put his mind at ease.
Bai Yongjing likes his mother the most, and he doesn't want her to be angry with him.
On the way to the entrance of the village, the mother and son met many familiar villagers.
"Where is the second daughter-in-law of Bai going?"
"Aunt Liu, let's go to the county seat."
"Is that so? Yo, why is Yongjing so good-looking today? Have you made new clothes?"
Due to the praise of others, Bai Yongjing seemed very happy.
"Yes, Grandma Liu, my new clothes were made for me by my mother!"
When he said this, Bai Yongjing's voice had a very smug tone.
"Yes, yes, Yongjing put on his new robe, like a high school champion!"
"Hehe, thank you Grandma Liu for the compliment!"
In addition to Grandma Liu, other villagers also praised Bai Yongjing for being clever and handsome.
After all, Bai Yongjing was still a child, and he was even happier to hear such praise.
At the entrance of the village, the mother and son still made Xu San's mule cart.
Chu Xintian paid the fare, and Xu San only wanted Chu Xintian to pay five cents, saying that Bai Yongjing was a child and would not charge him the fare.
Chu Xintian didn't want to take advantage of others: "Third Brother Xu, don't be so polite, the child also occupies a person's position, this money must be paid, if you don't accept it, then how can we be embarrassed to take your car?"
Seeing that Chu Xintian insisted on this, Xu Sancai accepted the five cents again.
However, Xu San was a kind person after all, and when he arrived at the city gate, everyone wanted to get off.
But he knew that Chu Xintian and Bai Yongjing were going to the Chinese medicine shop and brought so many heavy things, so he drove the mother and son to Market Street.
Xu San's approach deeply touched Chu Xintian, and she wrote down this favor.
After thanking Xu San, Chu Xintian took Bai Yongjing to the Baicao Hall of the Lu family.
The shopkeeper was very happy to see Chu Xintian, and he was very curious to see Chu Xintian with a little boy.
"Sister of the Chu family, who is this little boy?"
"Well, he is my son, Bai Yongjing, Jing'er, hurry up and salute the shopkeeper."
Bai Yongjing was very polite and greeted the owner.
The shopkeeper was surprised to hear that this little boy was Chu Xintian's son.
In the eyes of the shopkeeper Wang, Chu Xintian was at most a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl who had never combed her hair in a bun, so he never thought that Chu Xintian was already married and had such a big son.
But the shopkeeper Wang is also a smart person, he just does business with Chu Xintian, and doesn't care much about other people's private affairs.
"Sister of the Chu family, what good medicine did you send me today?"
Chu Xintian quickly took out all the medicines he had dug up in the past few days, including white peony, rhubarb, and angelica.
Chu Xintian's medicines were very good, and Shopkeeper Wang happily settled the money for her, and these medicines were sold for a total of one or two silver.
When Chu Xintian and Bai Yongjing walked to the door of the store, Shopkeeper Wang suddenly said, "Please stay, sister of the Chu family, there is one thing I want to ask you to help with."
"What is the matter with the king's shopkeeper? I'll definitely help if I can. ”
"That's the case, sister of the Chu family, in the past two months, there are two kinds of herbs missing in our store, they are eucommia and Chuanxiong, especially Chuanxiong, the lack is even more serious, if the sister of the Chu family encounters these two medicinal materials when she goes to the mountains to collect medicine, it is best to bring some over, no matter what the product looks like, as long as there is it."
