Chapter 424: Love

Shi Qingqian said the names of several effective medicinal materials, and Xi Manwan nodded at some times, but was confused about others.

Shi Qingqian expressed complete understanding, after all, Xi Manwan is not a professional in pharmacology, even if she grew up in such a place with abundant medicinal resources since childhood, there is no guarantee that all medicinal materials will be known.

"Hey, Miss Xi, it's okay, the ones I just said also have good medicinal effects, I'll help you sort out the medicinal materials another day, you just need to apply the medicinal materials once a day in the morning and evening, after a long time, it will definitely have an effect!"

Shi Qingqian patted Xi Manwan's shoulder and smiled heartily. Seeing her laughing, Xi Manwan couldn't help but be infected by such a smile, and showed a smile with some difficulty.

After chatting, Shi An beckoned them to have dinner together.

Shi An said that the dining room of this plum courtyard was a must, so he simply invited them to stay in the plum courtyard for dinner.

After Shi Qingqian made it clear the intention of her and Shen Shuwei to come to Tongling this time, Shi An slapped the table excitedly, "You are here to inspect Tongling medicinal materials, what a coincidence!" Wan'er runs a medicine garden by herself, and there are many mountains in the south of Tongling, and one of them belongs to her. You can rest for a few days first, and let Wan'er take you over another day! ”

"Wow? Miss Xi is so young, is she actually running a mountain medicine garden by herself? Shi Qingqian was slightly flustered, surprised and admiring, and said, "It's really amazing, no wonder my second brother, who likes to run around, can willingly stay here for so long." ”

Hearing that Shi Qingqian was deliberately joking, Xi Manwan's face turned red, and she lowered her head a little shyly.

Shi Qingqian smiled in her heart, she had already smelled the smell of gossip, so she reached out to her cheek and asked with a wicked smile: "Speaking of which...... I don't know how the second brother and Miss Xi got married! I see that my brother likes Miss Xi so much, and Miss Xi also likes my second brother, so why don't you just ......"

"Woo'er!" Shi An also blushed more and more when he listened, and quickly stopped Shi Qingqian, raised his hand and sandwiched several pieces of sweet and sour pork ribs into Shi Qingqian's bowl, "Eat more and eat more, save your little mouth and can't control it all day long, you know how to talk nonsense!" ”

Shi Qingqian playfully stuck out his tongue and lowered his head to eat a piece of sweet meat.

Later, Shi An said it.

In fact, there is nothing special about the acquaintance of the two. Shi An went to Tongling and heard that other places were cold to death in winter, but there were still medicinal herbs growing in Tongling. After many years in business, he immediately caught the business opportunity, which is why he stayed temporarily.

As for getting acquainted with Xi Manwan, it was also because when he went to the back mountain to investigate medicinal materials on the spot, he happened to see several women bullying her because of Xi Manwan's face, and the soul of justice in his heart awakened, and Shi An came to a 'hero saves beauty'. Unexpectedly, such a rescue not only gave away his heart, but also 'saved' Xi Manwan's heart.

Later, after understanding deeply, Shi An saw the wonder of Xi Manwan's family secret recipe 'plum dew cream', but it is a pity that this Tongling is a place where a woman loves beauty to the point of vanity, and for Xi Manwan, who has a terrible scar on her face, she naturally looks down on and despises.

Xi Manwan's parents died, and she ran a whole mountain medicine garden by herself, except for the six faithful servants left by her parents when they were alive, she had no other support, which is why although she was the 'shopkeeper', she didn't even have a maid, and she had to move the three boxes of plum dew paste by herself.

Shi An couldn't look past it, so he used his three-inch incorruptible tongue to live in the plum courtyard, which made it more convenient to sell plum dew cream.

So far, Shi An has helped Xi Manwan sell a lot, and her life is much better.

Although Shi An was shy about the relationship between the two people, when Shi Qingqian asked him later, when he mentioned Xi Manwan's name, it was clear that he had a light in his eyes.

"Alas...... My second brother is so rich, why should Miss Xi be so lonely and have to guard a mountain to make herself so sad? After hearing those words, Shi Qingqian talked for a long time, and seemed to feel that there was something wrong with what he had just said, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Ah! I'm not talking about money...... That's right, Miss Xi also likes my second brother, doesn't she? It's normal for lovers to rely on each other! ”

Shen Shu on the side heard this and snorted disdainfully.

Shi Qingqian said it nicely, saying that 'relying on each other is not in the way', but she, a little girl, is clearly a person who never wants to rely on Shen Shu, and Shi Qingqian carries so many things by herself.

Xi Manwan shook her head with a smile, and her hand unconsciously covered her burned place, "I...... also has his own career, before I met Ziqing, our lives were all our own, so no matter what kind of achievements Ziqing had before this, none of them belonged to me...... I can't be so selfish to possess. ”

Listening, Shi Qingqian understood in an instant. Why did his second brother, who had traveled south and north for so many years, fall in love with someone hopelessly in a small place. has nothing to do with appearance or family background, what Shi An loves is Xi Manwan.

"Wan'er, don't worry, the days won't be so hard in the future......" Shi An was even more touched in his heart, and took Xi Manwan's hand in the past, "Don't worry, I will be by your side in the future." ”

Looking at his second brother, who was always not serious, suddenly looked like this, Shi Qingqian felt that he was not used to it, but he was also very moved. But in any case, as a younger sister, she still expressed her blessings when she saw that her brother had easily found her own happiness.

After dinner, the sky had begun to slowly darken, and Shi Qingqian and Shen Shu still decided to say goodbye first and return to the post station.

"Er, when you decide to start the investigation, just come to me," Shi An sent the two to the door, where the carriage that came to pick them up was parked, "Brother has also been in Tongling for a long time, what do you want to know, I'll take you there!" ”

"Got it!" Shi Qingqian smiled, got into the carriage with Shen Shu's support, and then poked his head out of the window, "Second brother, let's hurry up and send Miss Xi back, it's getting late, so as not to be in any more danger!" ”

Shi An smiled, "Okay, you guys also pay attention to safety." ”

That's it, the two sides parted.

Although Shi An's appearance was unexpected, it did provide a lot of convenience for their work. Thinking that things had become easier, Shi Qingqian was even more relieved.
