Lin Miao smiled at him: "Don't worry, I'm fine."

As he spoke, he looked at the purse in his hand, remembered the unique temperament of the two young ladies, and asked curiously: "By the way, brother, has the young lady of the Chen family always lived in Gaoqiao Town?"

Lin Xi shook his head, his eyes also fell on the purse, and said, "No, the young ladies are coming back with the old man to worry about it."

"Ding Wei?"

Lin Xi nodded: "Well, Old Lady Chen was a big official in the capital, and she died of illness two years ago."

"In this way, then, are the old men of the Chen family also officials?"

Lin Xi nodded again: "The eldest master seems to be some kind of squire, and the second master is the editor of the Hanlin Academy."

So that's the case, Lin Miao nodded in realization.

Suddenly thinking that when Miss Chen Er talked about Miss Chen's fiancé just now, the expression on Miss Chen's face looked a little strange, so she asked again: "Does my brother know what kind of person that eldest lady's fiancé is?"

Lin Xi shook his head: "I only heard that he is the son of a big official, and he is also a very talented person."

"In this way, no wonder her sister wants to ruin her reputation, it turns out that she wants to rob her family."

Lin Miao said and thought of what the eldest lady said, and hurriedly asked again: "By the way, brother, eldest Miss Chen said that you saved her, how did you save her?"

Lin Xi thought for a moment and said slowly: "At noon on the day of the Double Ninth Festival, the shopkeeper asked me to send a jar of fine bamboo leaves to Fulai Restaurant.

"On the way back, I saw a horse pulling the carriage screaming and galloping as it ran towards me, and I somehow reached out and grabbed the horse's rope, and the horse dragged me for a while, and then stopped."

"And you were injured at the time?" Lin Miao asked.

Lin Xi shook his head, his eyes fell on Lin Miao's face, and it was no longer his sister standing in front of him, but the girl who pretended to be calm but couldn't hide the panic in her eyes.

The girl is like the most beautiful fairy, she walked up to him and thanked him, how did he come back at that time?

It seems that I only said that I don't need to thank you.

Why didn't you say more at the time?

Lin Xi sighed in annoyance, I am afraid that I will not have a chance to speak in the future.

Lin Miao glanced at Lin Xi and then looked at the purse, and finally took out the ten taels of silver tickets in the purse, and then gave the purse to Lin Xi, and said, "Brother, you help return the purse to Miss Chen, and thank her."

Lin Xi was a little stunned when he heard this, and the purse in his hand was subconsciously pinched by him.

Big families are more particular, and it is difficult for a foreign man like him to see the eldest lady alone.

Yesterday, I was able to see it because I was looking for the shopkeeper's advance of moon silver, and the shopkeeper said that he couldn't be the master, so he led him to Chen's mansion, and the two masters went to the county.

I thought it would be in vain, but I didn't expect to be seen by the eldest lady when I left the house, and in the end, the eldest lady directly untied the purse and gave it to him.

Can he bother the eldest lady again?

Obviously not!

Thinking of this, Lin Xi raised his eyes to Lin Miao and said, "The eldest lady will definitely not want this purse again, so sister, you can use it."

"I don't want it, you can use it."

Lin Miao said and turned around and walked towards the counter, where Ah Chang had already picked up the medicine, and he also took a rope to tie up the same medicine.

Ten taels and two hundred wen, this is the total price of medicine, this time Lin Miao didn't say anything, just gave the silver and took the medicine and left.

Out of the medical hall, Zhang Damu was already waiting, and when he saw the Lin family brothers and sisters, he smiled slightly.

Lin Xi's brother and sister quickly approached the ox cart, there were four large baskets on the ox cart, occupying all the empty seats in the ox cart, Lin Miao's nose sniffed a smell of gunpowder, and asked, "What is this?" ”

Zhang Damu looked at Lin Miao and said: "This is a cannon battle that has not yet been prepared, every time before the Chinese New Year, the cannon workshop will release some for people to take back to make up, and the village chief in our village has pressed his handprint as a guarantee, so you can also take some back."

It turned out to be firecrackers!

"Is this firecracker easy to weave? How long should a row be? ”

Lin Miao reached out with interest to pull away the black coarse cloth covering the basket, and what caught her eyes was a single firecracker, which was tied into a cake, and the gray lead was softly drooping her head.

"It's not very difficult to make ten loaves in a row, and you should be able to make a row in one day."

"One day, how much silver can you get by making a row?"

"One article." Zhang Damu gestured.

Lin Miao instantly covered the black cloth back, and she only earned a penny a day, so she forgot it.

Lin Xi looked at the hour, climbed into the car and moved the basket to vacate a place, and said, "Yue'er, come and sit here."

The ox cart was not slow, and it was not yet noon when she returned to Lin's house, Lin Zhao sat on a small bench and tied a broom, and when she heard the footsteps, she hurriedly looked up, and saw that it was Lin Xi's brother and sister, and the broom came over as soon as it was released, and hurriedly asked, "Have you bought the medicine?"

Lin Miao picked up the medicine and put it in front of Lin Zhao, and said, "The medicine is here, but it can't be boiled yet, there are still a few flavors of medicine, the medical hall is sold out, the doctor has already told me what the medicine is, I will wait to go up the mountain to pick it back."

Lin Xi was a little uneasy in her heart, that prescription was written by her sister herself, and the doctor had never come out, could there be a problem?

"Danger in the mountains, this, you..."

Without waiting for Lin Zhao to finish speaking, Lin Miao directly interrupted her and said, "It's good that my brother is with me, we don't go into the mountains, just where everyone often goes to chop wood, I don't think there will be any danger."

"This..."

Lin Zhao is still not at ease, on the one hand, because the mountain is really dangerous, his father fell on the mountain, and she usually goes to chop wood, so she knows that there are a lot of snakes and insects on the mountain, not to mention being bitten by snakes, even if you don't pay attention to it, you may itch all over your body.

On the other hand, she still knows a little about her daughter's pounds and taels, and she doesn't believe that her daughter can recognize the medicine the doctor said, so she is afraid that her daughter will mess around.

Seeing Lin Zhao's hesitation, Lin Miao hurriedly hinted that Lin Xi would help speak.

Lin Xi glanced at his sister, and suddenly remembered her calm appearance when she wrote the prescription, and the uneasiness in his heart slowly dissipated, and he felt that he should believe his sister.

A person who is willing to quit his family in order to ask for money to treat Daddy's illness will definitely not take the lives of his family as a child's play.

After figuring it out, he pulled Lin Zhao and walked inside, saying as he walked: "A-Niang, I will take care of Yue'er, you don't have to worry."

Lin Zhao's gaze stopped at Lin Xi, she had the thoughts of a traditional woman, and she naturally chose to obey her son, and said, "Then you guys be careful."

Lin Xi nodded, moved his gaze to the door of Lin Chengfu's room, and asked, "How is Daddy?"

"Much better, drank some porridge and fell asleep."

Lin Zhao's tone was relaxed, no longer as heavy as yesterday.

Putting down the medicine bag, Lin Miao went back to the room.

After Lin Zhao put away the medicine that belonged to his father-in-law, he took the rest of the packets of medicine and walked out.

Lin Xi felt that he should go over and have a look first when he came back, so he stopped Lin Zhao and said, "Ah Niang, I'll take it." ”
