Chapter 25, Xin'er's past
Early the next morning, Sumire sent her out of the valley as agreed, and Granny Sam also came to see her off, Xiao Qianyue Edgeworth left the valley and went straight to Yaowang Town.
"Miss Xiao, have a good trip, don't forget your oath." Granny Sam stood in the enchantment and explained,
"I will, Granny Sam." Xiao Qianyue saluted Granny Shen again, and watched Granny Ginseng leave before pulling Sumire,
"Sumire, I'll go to Yaowang Town, you remember waiting for me outside Yaowang Town in the morning five days, no matter what the result is, I will bring your sister to you." Xiao Qianyue pinched Sumire's hand and whispered,
"Okay, that's a deal." Sumire also shook Xiao Qianyue's hand back, and then reluctantly went back.
The barrier of the Medicine King Valley has been laid, and the grassy valley can no longer be found from the sky.
", you live in my bracelet first, it's inconvenient for me to show up in Yaowang Town this time." Xiao Qianyue hugged the roll and said,
"Okay, I just want to sleep, so it's just right that no one disturbs me." Roll said with a whoosh and disappeared.
Yaowang Town is indeed not far from Yaowang Valley, Xiao Qianyue flew for half an hour to arrive, this town is much larger than Jinshui Town, there are not many vendors along the street, there are many shops of all kinds, what clothing stores, goldsmith shops, weapon shops, teahouses, taverns, everything.
Xiao Qianyue still looked for a place to live first, and then inquired about this man surnamed Qian in the city.
It turns out that there are two families surnamed Qian in this town, one is a rich gentry in the town, the family is a businessman for generations, mainly engaged in the medicinal materials business, and the current owner is a middle-aged man, who is a rich and unkind fish and meat villager, and has a very bad reputation.
There is also a family surnamed Qian is a scholarly family, and the children in the family all make a living by teaching calligraphy and selling paintings, and the family is poor, but the reputation is very good. These two families were originally relatives, and they were brothers in their grandfather's generation, but one was later kicked out of the family due to family conflicts, which led to the later two Qian families.
Xiao Qianyue didn't care what conflicts their Qian family had, she just wanted to find out the person who deceived Sister Jian'er.
Since I can't inquire about the Qian family now, let's go and inquire about Sumire's sister first.
So I started asking around again if anyone knew Miss Xin'er, and finally found out at a pharmacy.
"Shopkeeper, do you know a girl named Xin'er?" Xiao Qianyue has already asked more than a dozen shops, and she has run all over the streets.
"Xin'er? We used to have a girl named Xin'er who worked as a helper, but I don't know if it's the one you know. The shopkeeper replied while observing Xiao Qianyue,
"Then is this Xin'er the one who is with the man surnamed Qian?" Xiao Qianyue felt that there was a play.
"Speaking of which, the man surnamed Qian you said is probably not Qian Duoduo, the son of Master Qian, our medicinal herb family, right?" The shopkeeper recalled for a moment before asking,
"There's a lot of money, that's it. I'm a maiden friend of Miss Xin'er's sister, and I came to her at the behest of her sister, and if the shopkeeper knows Xin'er or knows where she lives, he will trouble telling me. Saying that, Xiao Qianyue stuffed the shopkeeper with a blood spirit pill that she had personally refined.
"Blood elixir? Girl, how did you get this elixir, this, this, ah, girl, come and speak in my inner hall, please. The shopkeeper took this pill as if he saw a treasure, and his attitude immediately changed one hundred and eighty degrees, and politely welcomed Xiao Qianyue to the inner hall, and instructed Xiao Er to pour tea for her.
"This girl is your surname, if there is anything you need my help with, I will do my best." The shopkeeper diligently helped pour a cup of tea.
"Just call me Xiao Qianyue, this blood elixir was given by a friend of mine, and I just borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, as long as the shopkeeper can help me find this Xin'er girl, it doesn't hurt to give this blood elixir to the shopkeeper." Xiao Qianyue said while drinking tea,
"This, this, good, good, I must know everything, and I will never hide it. Here's the thing...... It happened two years ago......" recalls the showcase,
It all started two years ago.
The Xinghe Pharmacy opened by the Qian family, a family of medicinal materials, in Yaowang Town, was opened, and the sound of firecrackers and applause was loud that day, and the street was very lively.
The shopkeeper also hung a recruitment notice at the door, which read: Recruit a helper, require to be able to recognize medicinal materials and distinguish flavors, be sharp with hands and feet, include food and accommodation, and the salary is negotiable.
Not long after the recruitment notice was posted, a girl jumped in for an interview.
"Shopkeeper, I'm here to interview a helper, do you still need someone now?" The girl asked with a grin,
The shopkeeper looked at this girl, seventeen or eighteen years old, she looked full of aura, and her eyes were crooked and very pleasing when she smiled.
"Someone, girl, do you know medicinal herbs? Do you have any previous experience as a helper? The shopkeeper led the girl to the medicine box and asked,
"Understand, I've been with medicinal herbs since I was a child, and it can be said that there are no medicinal herbs I don't know, as for experience, as long as the shopkeeper is willing to take it in and teach it carefully, I will have experience, hehe." As she spoke, the girl grabbed a handful of herbs from the table and sniffed it on the tip of her nose.
"Oh? Then tell me what herbs are in these herbs in front of you, and what are the effects? The shopkeeper worshiped the three medicinal herbs prepared in front of her in front of her.
The girl looked at them one by one, sniffed the first herb on the tip of her nose, and put it down in a few minutes.
"The medicinal materials of this first part are ephedra one coin, bitter almond one penny, perilla seed two coins, half summer one and a half coins, coltsfoot flower one and a half coins, aster two coins, sulforaphane seeds two coins, orange red two coins, Pyrrhiza seeds two coins, white front one and a half coins, the above medicinal materials are decocted with a simmer to take two teas, boiling out of a bowl can cure children's cough and asthma." As he spoke, he began to grab the second herb and put it on the tip of his nose, and put it down after a while.
"This second part, there should be one penny of Poria cocos, one penny of Sichuan Rhizome, two coins of Qin Gang, two coins of plantain, one and a half coins of desmodium, two coins of peach kernels, one penny of clematis, one penny of red peony, one and a half coins of angelica, and the main treatment of ventilation." Then I started to grab the third herb,
"Okay girl, don't look at it, it's no problem to be a pharmacist at your level, how could you think of coming to our Xinghe Pharmacy as a helper?" The shopkeeper doesn't understand that this kind of person is not a pharmacy, even if he goes to the Chaozhong Tai Hospital, why bury it in this small place.
"The shopkeeper doesn't know, I live near the Yaowang Valley, although I have been aware of medicine since I was a child, I don't know how to look and smell and ask, and besides, I am the first time to leave home, and I have no acquaintances in Yaowang Town, since I just want to have a place to live, I hope the shopkeeper will not dislike me." The girl bowed to the shopkeeper and said,
"Well, don't dislike it, we have a lot of accommodation, if you don't dislike me, I'll take you to the back wing to have a look? By the way, what do you call a girl? The shopkeeper hurriedly picked up the girl and said,
"The shopkeeper can call me Xin'er." Xin'er Dao,
"Okay, just call me Lao Chen in the future, don't call the shopkeeper anymore, the doctor who is sitting there is surnamed Li, just call him Doctor Li, and the second bookkeeper over there will call him Xiaoyao, in the future, the work of catching medicine and running the hall in our store will be handed over to you, don't be too hard, as long as you do a good job, you will definitely not be missing at the end of the month." The shopkeeper led Xin'er around the store while explaining, and then led her to the backyard wing to pick a residence.
