Chapter 17: Returning Home and Buying
## #ε·²θΏεζΆ, in the Moon Pavilion of the Protector's Mansion
Gu Qiqiao was picking fresh petals in the flower garden, and the smile on his face was as warm as the warm sunshine.
"It just rained yesterday, and the flowers bloomed just right, pick some petals to make flower cakes for the girl, the girl likes the flower cakes made by the slave the most, hehe."
When Gu Qiqiao said this, Gu Yanran happened to be standing behind her.
"Well, I really like it the most." Gu Yanran chuckled and echoed Gu Qiqiao's words.
Gu Qiqiao, who was defenseless, was so frightened by Gu Yanran's sudden voice that she fell to the ground. "Yikes!"
"Hahaha, haha......" Gu Yanran laughed heartily, and did not forget to reach out and pull Gu Qiqiao up.
Gu Qiqiao stood up, patted the dust on his body, squatted down and continued to pick petals. "Miss Yan, why did you come back so early today?"
Gu Yanran squatted beside Gu Qiqiao, helping to pick flower petals together while mystically secret. "Because of your sister-in-law, I'm free.
Finally, I don't have to follow Gu Qiuyu and Gu Kerou to learn the four arts together, it's really easy. β
βοΌοΌοΌβ Gu Qiqiao was so shocked that he couldn't control the strength in his hand, and directly broke off a delicate red rose.
Gu Yanran got closer, saw Gu Qiqiao's movements, and blamed. "Oops, why are you so careless?"
"......" Gu Qiqiao looked at the rose in his hand, and he was so guilty that he was about to cry. I'm sorry, girl, but I broke your favorite flower. β
Red roses, this is the girl's favorite flower, why did she accidentally fold it?
Gu Yanran gave a popping chestnut to Gu Qiqiao's head. "Silly tangrams.
I'm not sorry for the flowers, I'm sorry for you, you see...... It's all bleeding!
Let's go, don't pick the flowers yet, I'll bandage you. Gu Yanran took the rose in Gu Qiqiao's hand and threw it into the flower basket, dragged Gu Qiqiao and walked to the house.
Gu Qiqiao hurriedly shook his head and refused. "No, no, it's just a small opening, and if it's not in the way, you can't die......"
Hearing the word 'death', Gu Yanran turned around and glared at Gu Qiqiao fiercely. "Shut up!"
"......" Gu Qiqiao was silent, and he didn't dare to speak again, for fear of annoying Gu Yanran.
In the room, Gu Yanran let Gu Qiqiao sit on the chair, and then turned around to find the medicine box.
But after looking around, Gu Yanran didn't find the medicine box in her memory.
Gu Yanran was helpless, so she had to turn around and ask Gu Qiqiao. "Tangram, where's my medicine box?"
"Medicine box?" Gu Qiqiao tilted his head and thought about it, very surprised. "Isn't that something that doctors can use? Girl, you don't know how to heal, how can you have? β
Gu Yanran, who was rummaging through the cabinets, paused, and slapped her backhand on her head. "Look at my pig brain."
The medicine box is something that only Gu Yanran, who has studied medicine in his previous life, has.
She was reborn as a well-known straw bag, so it was naturally impossible to keep a medicine box in the boudoir.
Thinking that there was no medicine box, Gu Yanran turned around and came to the dresser, took a can of incense powder used this morning and returned to Gu Qiqiao's side.
"Give it to me." Gu Yanran grabbed Gu Qiqiao's hand and imprinted her punctured finger on the incense powder.
"Yikes!" Gu Qiqiao subconsciously retracted his hand.
Gu Yanran didn't grab Gu Qiqiao's hand again, anyway, the punctured place had already been stuck with incense powder, but teased Gu Qiqiao's reaction. "I won't eat you again, I'm scared."
"Miss Yan, why are you ......?" Gu Qiqiao didn't understand Gu Yanran's approach.
"The incense powder used in my daughter's daily life is actually made with several kinds of fine powder ground from Chinese herbal medicines, two of which are Tianqi and purple bead grass, both of which have the effect of stopping bleeding and removing blood stasis.
Gu Qiqiao suddenly realized and admired Gu Yanran. "Miss Yan, you are really well-informed, and you even smile at the production method of fragrant powder."
"Hmph." Gu Yanran smiled triumphantly, and her chin was about to rise to the sky.
"But the incense powder you use is extremely expensive, and you have to pay ten taels of silver to put a box, and now it is stained with the blood of the slave and maid, so you can only throw it away, what a waste."
"If you abandon it, you will abandon it." Gu Yanran didn't care about the abandonment of the incense powder, and preached Gu Qiqiao seriously. "Qiqiao, you have to remember that everything in the world that can be done for two silver is not a thing.
Our Protector Mansion lacks everything, but there is no shortage of silver. β
Gu Qiqiao's eyes widened. ββ¦β¦β
"Ah, by the way, speaking of silver......" Gu Yanran stood up and walked to her bed.
When she came to the bed, Gu Yanran lifted the pillow and the cushion underneath it, and opened a dark grid.
Inside the dark compartment, there is a thick stack of silver tickets.
"Sure enough, these small details have not changed." Gu Yanran took out the silver ticket in the dark compartment and placed it on the bed according to the denomination of the silver ticket.
Fifty taels ...... Twenty sheets.
One hundred taels ...... Forty-five.
Five hundred taels ...... Twenty-eight.
One thousand taels...... Seventeen sheets.
Two thousand taels ...... Twelve.
Five thousand taels...... Eight sheets.
10,000 taels ...... Five sheets.
These silver tickets, which add up to a huge amount of money, are the moon silver, birthday silver and the gift silver she received from her elders on various festivals every year.
The maximum denomination is 10,000 taels...... It was from her birthday when she was ten years old, and her grandfather secretly stuffed her with the birthday silver and asked her to keep it secret.
"Before you know it, you've become a little rich woman." Gu Yanran smiled and showed a mouthful of small white teeth, bent over to pick up the silver ticket and put it in her arms.
Gu Qiqiao looked at Gu Yanran's unbelievable actions in his eyes and wondered. "Miss Yan, what are you doing with so many silver tickets?"
"Of course, I'm going to go out and buy something." Gu Yanran picked up Gu Qiqiao and walked out of the house. "Let's go, let's go together."
Passing by the flower garden, Gu Qiqiao looked at the flower basket that was still resting in the scorching sun. "Miss Yan, those petals will all be ruined if they don't make flower cakes while they are fresh."
"It won't be wasted, the sun is good today, and the picked petals can be used as a petal bath at night."
## #ε€η¦Ήηε, west of the city
In front of a pharmacy with a sense of age, Gu Yanran was about to go in, but was stopped by Gu Qiqiao beside her.
Gu Yanran stopped and looked at Gu Qiqiao. "How?"
"Miss Yan, are you unwell?" Gu Qiqiao didn't know the reason why Gu Yanran came to the pharmacy, so she only thought so.
"No, I'm fine, I just want to buy myself a medicine box to take advantage of, the medicinal materials in this pharmacy are excellent in terms of price and quality, and the things that can be used daily in the silver needle are also complete, so I fixed it at his house to buy."
Gu Qiqiao was even more surprised when he heard this. "Miss Yan, this is the first time you have come back to this place in the west of the city, how do you know so much about this pharmacy?
Let's talk about buying......
Have you forgotten?
Our house is always to ask Dr. Cui to see a doctor, so everything about medicinal materials is done by Dr. Cui on behalf of him. β
