Chapter 123: Heart-to-Heart Talk
Boiling medicine? Lan Yu blinked his eyes and reacted quickly: "Of course, Lin Gongzi, do you need my help?" I can help you boil the medicine. ”
"No, no, you can boil the medicine pot myself, that is, the taste may be a little heavy......" Lin Shengyue was not very embarrassed, after all, this is in someone else's house, if the smell is heavy, what should I do if it smokes others.
"No problem." The door next door was suddenly opened, and Twilight stood at the door dressed in green clothes, opening his mouth lightly.
Lin Shengyue turned her head to look at him, blinked her eyes mischievously, and said, "Good brother!" ”
Lan Yu quickly brought the medicine pot, and even brought a medicine pounder, made of stone, which seemed to have found some things in the house that could be used for medicine.
Lin Shengyue is very grateful, at least it is more convenient to have this medicine pounder.
Lan Yu and the others retreated again, but Du Sheng was still standing at the door, as if he was going to look at Lin Shengyue to see what she was trying to do.
Lin Shengyue didn't like to be watched by others, and felt uncomfortable, so she said, "Ah Yi, why don't you go back to the room?" ”
As soon as the words fell, she suddenly felt that she was a little disrespectful when she said this, so she said: "I can do it alone, I don't need anyone's help, really." ”
Her eyes were extremely sincere, and Twilight wanted to see it again, but at this moment she could only go back to her room depressedly and close the door.
Lan Yu led the group to a place that Lin Shengyue couldn't see, she breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to tinker with things again.
The medicinal herbs were put directly into the medicine pot, two bowls of water were added and the cooking began, when the stove was boiling, Lin Shengyue actually felt a little warm, and when the medicine was boiled and poured out, although there was only about one bowl, it was enough.
She first took out the dregs, put them in the medicine pounder, and began to pound the medicine manually, trying to break them all up and grind them into powder.
Although Du Sheng entered his room, he had been listening intently to the movement outside, hearing the sound of the medicine boiling and rolling up, and naturally he also heard the sound of Lin Shengyue pounding the medicine, and after sitting for a while, he finally couldn't help but stand up and open the door.
Lin Shengyue was sitting cross-legged at the door pounding medicine, and when she heard the voice, she looked up, and when she found that Dusk Sheng had come out again, she blinked her eyes: "Why did you come out again?" ”
"I'll help you." Twilight rolled up his sleeves and lifted the hem of his clothes, then sat down beside her, and then stretched out his hand, "Give it to me." ”
He was too reasonable, Lin Shengyue blinked her eyes, her brain hadn't reacted yet, she had already handed over her own things in her hand, and when he started to start tinkering with the dregs, she came back to her senses violently, and then couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"What are you laughing at?" Du Sheng was still using the small stone hammer in his hand to hammer the medicine slag, but his eyes were on Lin Shengyue.
Lin Shengyue hurriedly said: "Don't look at me, look at your hand, it will hurt if you are pricked in the hand later." ”
As soon as the words fell, she couldn't help but laugh again: "I didn't expect you to come to help me, but it's okay, I have an extra free labor." ”
She raised her eyebrows and began to boil a packet of medicine again, and a smile appeared in Twilight's eyes, and said, "Isn't it okay to have one more person to chat with you?" Why did you rush us away just now? ”
"Because I'm afraid of bothering you, how can I say that I'm also an outsider, it's embarrassing enough to ask you to help me prepare such medicinal materials, I ......" Lin Shengyue opened his mouth while fanning the stove with the fan he used to pretend to be his son's brother, but he didn't expect to be interrupted by Dusk Sheng before he finished speaking.
"We're friends, aren't we? What do you do about this? Twilight's voice was a little dull, and she didn't seem to want to hear her separate them too much.
Lin Shengyue was stunned for a moment, and laughed after half a sound.
The two of them chatted while they were busy, and they chatted and chatted about Twilight's business.
"Ah Yi, do you have any other business besides Yunliang Pavilion? Teach me, in this day and age..... Ahem, in our country, how do you make money? Lin Shengyue put down the fan in her hand and turned her head to look at Du Sheng.
She curled up her legs, rested her chin on her knees, and blinked her big eyes, looking a little cute.
The smile in Dusk Sheng's eyes deepened, he thought about it, and suddenly said, "Ah Yue, why do you want to make money so much?" "Looking at her appearance, she shouldn't be the kind of person who regards wealth as her life.
In the dead of night, it is always the easiest to have a heart-to-heart, Lin Shengyue was silent for a while, the light in her eyes dimmed, and her voice lowered: "Making money is for a better life, Ah Yi, people like you who are born rich don't understand, sometimes, money can solve a lot of things." ”
After a pause, she added: "The living situation of our family is very ...... There are still a lot of bad people, I need to protect my family, and the best way to protect my family is that I have to have enough money, and with money, those bad people will be obedient. ”
She spoke her thoughts in the most straightforward words, and the movements in Twilight's hands paused for a moment before she said, "I have money." "You can take it with me, you don't have to work as hard as yourself.
Lin Shengyue was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and said, "Don't you know?" Women must be financially independent, and only when they are financially independent can they do whatever they want. ”
Dusk Sheng really stopped what he was doing this time, and all the puzzles in his eyes emerged: "Ah Yue, what does it mean to be financially independent?" Why do you keep saying things I don't understand? ”
"That's ......" Lin Shengyue sighed silently in her heart, and warned herself not to make mistakes again before saying: "Financial independence means that a woman must learn to earn money to support her family, so that she does not have to rely on a man and can do everything she wants to do." ”
This point of view is different from those views in ancient times that 'a woman is virtuous if she is not talented' and 'a woman must follow three virtues and four virtues, marry her husband, and obey her father at home', so after Lin Shengyue finished speaking, she looked at Du Sheng with some apprehension, worried that he would reprimand himself, because these remarks are not right here.
But instead of scolding her, she said, "That's a ...... Novel. ”
A strange look flashed in his eyes, and he said: "You will definitely be able to achieve all your methods, and if you need help, come to me, I am not to be denied." ”
Lin Shengyue looked at him stunned for a while, and after half a sound, she smiled with crooked eyebrows, and she didn't ask why he didn't think such an idea was strange, at this moment, there was no need to ask, because she knew that even if he didn't understand, he would understand himself.
"What about you? You haven't told me yet, you'...... experience. She didn't ask Twilight how he made so much money now, she instinctively knew that he was also a man with a story.
Twilight restarted, thought for a moment, and said, "It's true that I was born rich, but I ...... It's not a good time. ”
