Chapter 25: Get the Seed
The ox cart lasted until late afternoon before arriving at Linxian. The four of them found a hotel, ate a little and then went back to their rooms to rest.
"Wu family, Su Yatou went out alone at a young age, you can go with her, and you can take care of it." The village chief said to Aunt Wu after eating.
"Okay, then you can go with Lao Wu, and save some money if you can." Aunt Wu happily agreed.
So, at the behest of the village chief, Su Moli and Aunt Wu slept in the same room.
At night, Su Moli was full of worries and was about to fall asleep, when she heard Aunt Wu's curious voice beside her.
"Su girl? Did you sleep? ”
"Aunt Wu, what's wrong?" Su Moli yawned and asked lazily.
"It's nothing, I just want to ask, how did you and your little husband meet?" Aunt Wu's gossip heart was blazing, and she hurriedly asked.
"......" Su Moli was speechless for a while. In these years, how can you take a ride and leak personal privacy.
Aunt Wu saw that Su Mo didn't speak, but she was shy, and said with a smile: "I think your little husband is good, and his family will allow him to join your family?" ”
These words alerted Su Moli. Realize that now, he hasn't asked him questions about his family, and he doesn't seem to have taken the initiative to mention it to himself.
"We met in the town, and I was dying of hunger, and he went to grab food for me from the beggars, who protected me and beat me when they came to us. I somehow got better, and I'll take him home when I'm done. Su Moli picked a few things to tell Aunt Wu.
"I know! Wang Lijuan, who was killed that day, was not kind-hearted! lived in other people's houses, used other people's sons as beasts, and threw their daughters away to others, and deserved to go to hell! Aunt Wu was indignant and scolded Su Moli fiercely.
Su Moli listened, smiled with relief, and said in a very soft voice: "It's all over." Well, to be honest, I still have to thank her. Without her, I wouldn't be where I am now. ”
If Wang Lijuan hadn't brought the original owner to the town, the original owner would have starved to death, how could she occupy this body, have her own brother and father-in-law, and have her own life? The original owner may be full of hatred for Wang Lijuan, right? But myself, in a way, really want to thank her.
"Girl Su, you're crazy! What are you thanking her for? Aunt Wu was very surprised, thinking that Su Moli had committed madness again.
Of course, Su Moli wouldn't tell outsiders what he was thinking, so he snorted: "If it weren't for my aunt, how could I meet my father-in-law?" I'm still very satisfied with them. ”
"Tut-tut, young man......" Aunt Wu seemed to be a fan of the right cp, showing an aunt smile on her face, and sighed: "Yes, only you know whether your life is good or not, and how you live your life." Others, it's just a joke, and they say a few words about watching a play without pain or itching. If you two can live a good life, it's better than anything else. ”
The two of them talked a few more words, and then fell asleep.
The next day, the four-man soldiers split into three routes.
Aunt Wu and Uncle Wu went to buy the latest iron sample, the village chief went to buy the four treasures of the study for his grandson, and Su Mo left to look for dry ink lotus seeds.
The four of them agreed to meet at the hotel for lunch.
Su Moli didn't know where to buy it, so he asked the shopkeeper: "This little brother, do you know where to sell dry ink lotus?" ”
"Dry Ink Lotus?" Xiao Er was confused: "What is that, Lotus?" ”
"It's not a lotus, but it's a flower." The shopkeeper's question reminded Su Moli: "Then the second brother, do you know where to sell seeds?" ”
The shopkeeper is obviously more comfortable with this question: "This, girl, you go straight, there is a Chen Ji restaurant in front, and then go to the right-hand side, pay attention to the side of the road, you can see it." ”
Su Moli walked on the road, secretly thinking in his heart.
There are three doctors with famous names in this county and neighboring counties, and although the friendship between the three is not deep, they must have met and known each other. Is it possible that the owner of the hospital in the neighboring county deliberately manipulated the seeds in order to make money?
Su Moli was thinking about it, and then he saw the seed shop that Xiao Er said.
"This boss, do you have the seeds of the dry ink lotus?" Su Moli looked at the shopkeeper and asked with a smile.
"No, it's sold out." The shopkeeper looked at Su Moli with a strange expression: "What are you buying dry ink lotus seeds for?" ”
"Uh......" Su Mo was running quickly from his brain, his face was full of sweet smiles that were harmless to humans and animals, and he said softly: "I read in the book that the dry ink lotus blooms beautifully, I am curious about what it looks like, so I will plant a few plants in the garden now." ”
"That's it......" The boss lowered his eyelids and seemed to relax his vigilance: "Boss Sun of the medical hall is all round, you can try your luck at him." ”
Sure enough, it's greasy! Go to Boss Sun? I'm afraid I won't be able to grow dry ink lotus in the next life!
"Eh, boss," Su Moli decided to take out a coquettish offensive: "Boss, there is no store like yours, and it is useless for me to worship the Buddha and ask for the Bodhisattva!" Boss, you can do it, sell me some, a little bit is fine. I just want to grow and play, and make a fresh picture. ”
Su Moli's mouth has always been powerful, praising and praising it, and he was stunned to say that the shopkeeper was fluttering.
"Okay, I'll give you some, and I'll treat it as a gift." The shopkeeper turned around and went to the warehouse to get a small handful of seeds, handed them to Su Moli and advised: "Just plant and play at home, don't go out and talk nonsense, you know?" ”
Su Moli thanked him busily, and nodded like a chicken pecking rice.
Out of the seed store, Su Moli walked on the road, thought about it in his heart, and pulled a passerby to ask about the location of the medical hall.
Su Mo left the hospital hall and saw a fat middle-aged man sitting in front of the desk, his eyebrows full of shrewdness.
"Boss, do you have any seeds for the Dry Ink Lotus?" Su Moli said with a smile.
"Little girl, what do you want to do with dry ink lotus seeds?" The shopkeeper squinted and smiled, like Maitreya Buddha.
"Didn't you say that dry ink lotus can stop bleeding? I want to plant and play. The seed shop at the south end of the street said you've got a round, let me try my luck with you. Su Mo kept his face and made up lies.
"Of course!" When the boss heard that the owner of the seed shop didn't sell it to Su Moli, his face was even more happy: "I don't have any medicinal materials in this pharmacy!" Even the next county has to come to me to pick up the goods! ”
The boss said, walked behind the screen and took out a bag, grabbed a small handful and gave it to Su Moli.
"Twenty Wen." The boss asked for a price.
So expensive! This boss's heart is too dark. A room in a hotel is only eight cents a night.
"Boss, let's get cheaper. I don't have that much money. Su Moli said with a smile, and took out the same set against the seed shop owner.
The owner of the medical hall squinted and nodded, listened to it with a smile for a long time, and finally gave in when Su Moli's mouth was dry:
"Fifteen texts. Girl, don't bargain anymore. ”
