Chapter 402: Twists and Turns
The two returned to the front yard, and when Fan saw everyone, he cried sadly, as if he had infinite grievances: "I'm really sorry, such a big thing happened to my family suddenly, I have no master, if there is anything inconsiderate, please forgive me." ”
Everyone naturally humbled a few words, and Fan paid the silver to the banquet, and then went to the funeral and other things.
He was worried about his daughter's injury, so he hurriedly said goodbye and went home with Qingjuan.
On the way, he told his daughter everything, and Qingwan sneered: "It's a matter of time or time, whether it's separated, it's been together for so many years, and it has never stopped." ”
"Now, your fourth aunt is proud, the marriage of the little girl is completed, and there will be many benefits in the future."
"That's not necessarily," Qingwan disagreed, "No one can say for sure what happens in the world, just look at it again." ”
He didn't want to mention the matter of the second house anymore, so when he entered the house, he urged Qingwan to sleep, and Qingwan had to rely on her. When I woke up at dusk, I hurried to stare at the boiling medicine.
It was late at night, the moonlight penetrated into the window lattice, and the starlight in the sky shone quietly on the earth, as if everything had unloaded the tiredness of the day, and it seemed so quiet.
A small suburban inn has also ended a busy day at this time, and there is no sound. There was only one room, and there was still a faint candle light, and I don't know why the people in it hadn't slept yet.
In the silence of the night, a light figure rushed in, and almost instantly reached the window, only to see him stop, listen to the movement inside, but hesitate for a moment.
"Why are you hiding outside? If you have something to say, you might as well say it. ”
Suddenly there was a voice in the room, and the man in black trembled slightly, pondered for a while, and then stepped inside.
He walked very slowly, but his steps were very light, and the door was open, obviously waiting for him.
"Why hide it? Sooner or later, we have to meet," the man in the room sneered slightly, "Don't you want to make a business trip sooner?" ”
I couldn't see the face of the man in black clearly, but I could hear the panic from his voice: "Then you're still here?" Don't you want to die obediently? ”
"You have to think before you say anything." The people in the room felt even more ridiculous, "Look at you're not the one who just has a brain." ”
"You!!" The man in black was enraged, and pointed his sword at him, "See if you can still speak!" ”
The cold light flashed, and the sword in the hand of the man in black fell to the ground in an instant, leaving only the stunned figure.
"If you don't have skills, don't sell people easily!" The people in the room laughed, "Tell the truth, I can make you less painful." ”
Between the lightning and flint, the hand of the man in black was tightly choked, making him unable to move.
The gentle tone just now also became cold: "If you don't take Yangguan Avenue, you want to take the single-plank bridge!" It's okay, then it's up to you! ”
It seemed that with a slight movement of his wrist, the face of the man in black was already painfully twisted and deformed, and his body struggled in vain, but his strength was exhausted.
He barely raised his eyes, and could only meet a cold gaze, his heart shrank suddenly, and he involuntarily spit out a few words: "I said, I said"
Two days have passed in the blink of an eye, and the symptoms of Anjiang Village have basically been alleviated. Except for a few who were already extremely weak, most of them have recovered. According to information from Panjia Village, the patients there have also improved. Qingwan breathed a sigh of relief.
Only Lu Yanyi disappeared as soon as she went, and she became more and more worried while she was busy.
At noon that day, Qingwan was busy cooking medicine. This is the last bit of herb, and if it can't be shipped again, so many people will be in danger of running out of medicine.
Ye Langzhong sat next to him, and said worriedly while diagnosing the disease: "I don't know how the child's affairs are doing, now that there is such a shortage of medicinal materials, I'm afraid it's not easy." ”
"It's been a few days since I left, and I haven't heard anything at all." Qingwan listlessly, "Anyway, I'll bring a letter back, we can also have a bottom in our hearts." ”
"Childe has always been like this," Ye Langzhong knew very well, "It didn't work out, I didn't want others to worry about it, I did it, and I wanted to surprise everyone." So when they came back, no one knew what had happened. ”
"Second sister! Second sister! Hanguang shouted loudly as he ran this way.
Qingwan glanced at him with disgust: "What's the matter, I'm in a hurry." I've not told you how many times, but I still can't listen to it! ”
Hanguang touched his head a little embarrassedly, and said with a flattering smile: "I'm too anxious, so I'll just"
"What the hell is going on?"
"You'll be glad to hear that! Brother Lu is back! ”
"What? Is this true? Qingwan didn't care about anything else, grabbed her brother's hand, and asked again in disbelief.
"Of course!" Hanguang showed a sly smile, as if he had seen through her: "What? Aren't you more anxious than I am? ”
"Less flamboyant! Where is your brother Lu? ”
"Well, we've arrived at the entrance of the village." Hanguang pointed.
"You watch the fire for me, be careful!" Qingwan put down this sentence and rushed to the entrance of the village.
Ye Langzhong also followed, and after walking not far, he saw Lu Yanyi with a small servant and a medicine cart, and had already rushed over.
After not seeing him for a few days, Lu Yanyi was a lot haggard, his originally fair face had tanned a lot, and his dusty appearance was almost unrecognizable. Qingwan's heart was sour, and she almost burst into tears.
At this time, many people also had to believe that they had come, and they were anxious to see if the medicinal herbs had been bought. Qingwan hurriedly asked, "Why have you been there for so long?" If you don't come back, this medicine will really stop! ”
Lu Yanyi turned over and dismounted, and it could be seen that although he was in good spirits on the surface, he was also strong, and he couldn't hide the tiredness between his eyebrows: "There is also a shortage of medicinal materials in the provincial capital, and it took me a lot of effort to get these six cars." ”
Chen Lizheng also came when he heard the news, and when he looked at the full medicinal materials, he suddenly became overjoyed: "It's Lu Langzhong in the end!" If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have anywhere to buy money! Quick, call someone to unload the truck! ”
"Wait!" Lu Yanyi said, "The situation in Anjiang is much better, and I can't use these, leaving three cars and giving it for two more days is enough." The remaining three cars were for Panjia Village. They have a lot of patients there, and they are late, so they have to disperse for two more days! ”
"Yes, yes, that's what Lu Langzhong said!" Chen Lizheng couldn't stop agreeing, and immediately commanded: "Don't you still take what Mr. Lu ordered?" Unload the two carts, ask Lord Wang for advice, and send the rest to Panjia Village! ”
As soon as he heard this, a gleam flashed in Lu Yanyi's eyes, and he soon disappeared again.
Qingwan was a little puzzled, in front of so many people, it was not easy to ask. After the medicinal materials were unloaded, Chen Lizheng asked someone to go to the county to make a report.
"Mr. Lu, it's been a hard journey!" Chen Li was busy coming over to greet him, "Sit down and rest." ”
Lu Yanyi also seemed very tired, and he didn't answer, so he sat down in Ye Langzhong's seat. took the towel handed by Qingwan and wiped the sweat beads on his head.
"Isn't it hard to buy?" Qingwan asked, "How did you get so many?" ”
Lu Yanyi took two sips of tea before slowly speaking: "There was a shortage of medicinal materials, and when I rushed to the provincial capital, I learned that black beans and licorice are especially rare, and there are not many people who use them normally, and there are fewer people who grow them, plus the harvest is poor, and the yield is very small." I've been to all the major medicine stores, but nine times out of ten, there are none! ”
"It's no wonder," Ye Langzhong sighed slightly: "Even if it's a good year, they don't want to store these two medicines, let alone now?" ”
Lu Yanyi continued: "I inquired once, and I learned that only in Maochang Pharmacy, there were still three cars. However, because it can cure the disease, the price has also increased several times. I thought that no matter what, as long as it was true that I could buy it, I would discuss with their boss if I could get it all back. ”
"This Mao Changxing has always been diligent in dealing with our family, so he won't give this face, right?" Ye Langzhong interjected.
"That's what I said." Lu Yanyi frowned slightly: "I paid the deposit at that time, and said that I would take it on the next day." The first day I promised to be good, but I got up early to pick up the goods, and it changed at that time. Whatever you say, there are Guangdong merchants who have decided to give it, even if there is more silver, they can't give it. He also said that he would double the deposit and return it to me. ”
Why is that? Didn't you say it all? Can I change it in the middle of it? No matter how much silver there is, this is a taboo for merchants, do they do old business, don't they know this rule? Ye Lang said.
"I'm also surprised, his family has always been honest, and there must be a reason for this sudden change of mind. I inquired carefully, but as if I was afraid, I didn't say a word! ”
Qingwan listened and listened, and was a little perceptive: "What is the secret behind this?" ”
Lu Yanyi looked at her, as if she had a lot to say, moved her lips, and finally swallowed, but said lightly: "I was even scared and persuaded, and finally said that the boss was moved and met the merchants in Guangdong." It turned out that although they were not a current disease, there were also many people who were sick and needed black beans and licorice for medicine, and they couldn't buy it locally, so they rushed over to collect a batch. ”
"Since that's the case, I'm afraid I won't let go easily." Ye Langzhong said.
"I asked what the symptoms were there, it turned out to be a poisonous evil caused by external heat and internal cold, in fact, there is no need for these two flavors, honeysuckle is the most appropriate. So he prescribed a recipe for him, adding forsythia and mung beans, this merchant listened to what I said, although he believed it, he was afraid that it would be difficult to go back, and I said that if the recipe for honeysuckle was not good, just come to me again. When he heard this, he was relieved. Finally, I was afraid of long nights and dreams, so I rushed back with a car. ”
Looking at his appearance, Qingwan knew that he still had a lot of words to say, thought about it, and said, "If you say so, you should have rushed back yesterday, why did you delay for a day and a night?" ”
Lu Yanyi seemed to have been prepared: "I had a little fever last night, and I really couldn't walk, so I stopped for the night." I calculated that the herbs were enough to cook until today, so it was not a delay. ”
"So Mr. Lu is sick?"
