Chapter 218
After speaking, Su Jinyao took out another tael of silver from the money bag and handed it to Ma Liudao: "Go to Anhetang behind the Red Sleeve Workshop to grab the medicine, although the medicine is more expensive than that of the small pharmacy, it is guaranteed to have a good effect." If you still can't believe me, you can tell the doctor who is sitting in the hall about this recipe and the dosage I said, and see if he can eat the dead. If he says it's okay, you should believe me, right? ”
Originally, he listened to his uncle's scolding of Ma Liu, and he didn't feel good in his heart. Now seeing that Su Jinyao took him a tael of silver, he hurriedly pushed it away and said, "Didn't the woman just give me ten taels of silver, which is enough to give my uncle medicine." Since you said so, I'll try this medicine. If my uncle is well ill, I will be filial to him and will not go out to cause trouble in the future. I'm not too young, it's time for my uncle to save some snacks. ”
Su Jinyao nodded and said, "It is said that the prodigal son will not change his money, if you really repent, maybe there will be a rich day in the future, so that your uncle can also enjoy happiness with you." ”
After speaking, Su Jinyao stood up (shēn), weighed the one or two pieces of silver in her hand and said, "I should go." These two pieces of silver are considered to reward your filial piety. Putting down the silver in her hand, Su Jinyao left.
She is not a good money boy, but for a person like Ma Liu, maybe this two pieces of silver can really save his conscience, and that is enough. And the last time the Red Sleeves Fang happened (qíng), Su Jinyao did see that he contributed, and the thing (qíng) was done well, and it was also appropriate to give a little reward.
As soon as Su Jinyao went out, Ma Liu hurriedly chased out, bowed and thanked Su Jinyao again, and said, "My uncle said let me thank the woman." He also said that these two taels of silver and the ten taels of silver just now were borrowed from you, and when my uncle is well, I will do my job well and return it to you twice as much as I earned. ”
Hearing Ma Liu say this, Su Jinyao didn't say anything else, just nodded and agreed. If one day Ma Liu can return the eleven taels of silver to her, it proves that Su Jinyao's kindness was not used in the wrong place this time. Moreover, the (qíng) points planted by these eleven taels of silver may be far greater than the benefits recovered by the silver (shēn).
Gu Xuebin saw Su Jinyao coming out, and walked over to her with a smile and asked, "Okay?" Where to go now? ”
"You, why do you look like a little henchman." Su Jinyao realized that she had been busy all along, and ignored Gu Xuebin, making him as if he was just a horse boy who helped him lead the horse. What about a good romantic date? How did I become like a paranoid workaholic, and when the male ticket was by the side (shēn), he couldn't let go of other things (qíng).
Thinking of this, Su Jinyao pulled Gu Xuebin's hand and said with a smile: "There's nothing to do down there, it's just that you and I are playing happily." See what to eat, play, and see in the city, and go shopping. When you get home, just pick up two things. ”
"Okay." Gu Xuebin's face was overjoyed, and when there was no one left and right, he took Su Jinyao's hand and bit it lightly on the back of her hand, and said with a smile: "Jinyao, you finally want to accompany me." I thought you were too busy to see me all day. ”
Su Jinyao listened to Gu Xuebin's words, and she was also heartwarming for a while. He is willing to accompany him silently all the time, out of understanding and protection. But he prefers to walk hand in hand with him, see a lot of places, and eat a lot of food.
"Then let's go to the market." Su Jinyao pointed to the big black horse and said, "Send it to the carriage and horse shop in a while, we just have to go shopping." ”
Gu Xuebin did not object, let him hold the horse all the time, it was better to hold Su Jinyao's hand all the time.
sent Da Hei to the carriage and horse shop, and after coming out, Gu Xuebin still held Su Jinyao's hand and refused to let go. Even if there are pedestrians around now, Su Jinyao is not allowed to break free.
Su Jinyao's face was slightly red, and she glared at Gu Xuebin and said, "What about so many people, how embarrassing are you?" ”
"You're my little daughter-in-law, what's so embarrassing? There are also those who are younger than you and are already married. Gu Xuebin was cheeky and didn't let go, of course Su Jinyao couldn't help it.
After walking for a while, I heard a woman next to me say: "Look at that pair of young couples, the man is handsome, the woman is beautiful, and the kiss (ài) (ài) is a match." It's just that I'm younger, I'm afraid it's a baby kiss. ”
"Uh" Su Jinyao turned her head to look over, and saw that the woman was talking to herself and Gu Xuebin. was already full of embarrassment, but now it is even more embarrassing to be pointed out by others.
It's also strange to say, Su Jinyao never cares about other people's eyes, why does this love (ài) start to look forward and backward and start to be uneasy.
Gu Xuebin grabbed Su Jinyao's hand tighter in a big way, and said with a smile: "Yes, sister-in-law, you are right, the two of us have been engaged since childhood, and now we are indeed living a small life on a blind date." ”
"Ah, that's good, such a good-looking couple, and it will definitely look good when they give birth to dolls in the future. When will I have a baby? Hold it and let us see. The sister-in-law actually boasted and boasted, and even the matter of giving birth to a baby (cāo) became heartfelt.
When Su Jinyao heard this, her face turned even redder. glared at Gu Xuebin fiercely, pulled him to lower his head and ran away.
After (shēn), the woman's laughter was heard: "Look at that little girl, she must be embarrassed when she blushes." Don't be ashamed, if my daughter met such a handsome uncle, I would have let her marry early. ”
Seeing that Su Jinyao kept running forward, Gu Xuebin stretched out his hand to hold her, and comforted her with a smile: "What are you ashamed of, didn't you hear that sister-in-law say, if her daughter could meet me so handsome, she would have married a long time ago." This proves that you are married well, and you are not happy? ”
"Not unhappy." Su Jinyao pouted, obviously she didn't want to sa (jiāo), but the look of anger was even better than that of sa (jiāo).
Gu Xuebin smiled "haha", touched Su Jinyao's head with his hand, and said gently: "Let's go over there and have a look." I see a candy store over there, go buy some candied fruit and eat it while walking? ”
"No, I don't like anything too sweet." Su Jinyao doesn't have to worry about (shēn) material now, because she has been just as thin as she has been nourished recently. However, her skin is better, she has grown taller, and she is relieved that she is not stunted. But for sweets, she really doesn't like them very much, especially candied fruits are particularly sweet.
Gu Xuebin pursed his lips, pointed to the other side and said, "The one who sells rouge over there, can I buy a box of rouge for you?" ”
"I just bought it, it's too cumbersome, and it's actually not very good-looking." It's not that Su Jinyao doesn't like makeup, but she doesn't like the colors of rouge and lip gloss. Recently, she found that there were several kinds of medicinal puree in a herb book, and she was wondering if she could try to mix some rouge from the botanical series herself. So she didn't want to buy this rouge either.
Gu Xuebin stalked for a moment, turned around and pointed to a jewelry store he had just passed by, and asked Su Jinyao: "Go and see if I can choose a pendant or a hairpin for you?" ”
"This one you gave is the best." Su Jinyao lifted her wrist to show Gu Xuebin, the white magnolia pendant with the red silk rope hanging was swaying in Hao's wrist, but it was quiet and elegant, and infinitely beautiful.
But...... I don't want this, I don't like that, Gu Xuebin couldn't help frowning, and said with a slight sense of loss: "Jin Yao, why do you suddenly feel that it is so difficult to please you?" ”
Su Jinyao smiled, looked down at the pendant on her wrist, and said softly: "Because you have already given the best, the gift that can warm my heart and cherish (ài), I can't look down on these worldly things." That sweet candied fruit is not worth a piece of beehive, a jar of honey that you found me; Those rouges are not much better colored than the mulberries you lied to me to eat; The gold pendant and jade hairpin ring can compare to the magnolia flower you carefully carved. ”
After speaking, Su Jinyao raised her head, met Gu Xuebin's clear eyes, and said, "Even the stone fish pot you gave me and those wild flowers picked from the mountains are more thoughtful than these exquisite things in the shops on the street, and they are my favorites." ”
"Silly girl, bad girl, really good at coaxing people. It's so sweet in my mouth, I want to take a bite. The smile on Gu Xuebin's face changed from embarrassment to joy.
Just now, I thought that Su Jinyao had become so pretentious, and she couldn't please her with no amount of coaxing, and she didn't know what to do.
But after listening to Su Jinyao's explanation, I realized that she was such an easily satisfied person. In other words, she doesn't want much, as long as she thinks about it with her heart, the wildflowers on the mountain can please her.
However, after all, the two of them came out to play once, and if they didn't give anything, they always felt that something was missing.
Gu Xuebin's eyes looked around, and suddenly his mind moved, and his eyes lit up. Pulling Su Jinyao and said, "Come with me and give you something good." ”
"Huh? What is it? Actually, you don't give anything, and the two of us go shopping with (xìng) and shopping is also good. Su Jinyao said, but she was already pulled by Gu Xuebin and ran forward.
It's just that Su Jinyao didn't expect that Gu Xuebin didn't take her to buy candied candies, nor did she look at rouge powder, let alone come to any jewelry workshop. Instead, they came to a ...... Wreath shop.
Burst! That's right, Su Jinyao rubbed her eyes and looked at it again, and only after seeing it clearly did she dare to be sure that she was not mistaken. Gu Xuebin did take her to the door of a wreath shop.
Standing here, it is a "purple and red", rows of paper flowers, paper horses, and several rows of wreaths are placed, but it is really "(rè) noisy", beautiful!
The corners of Su Jinyao's mouth twitched, and she really didn't know whether to laugh or scold. I had to look at Gu Xuebin and ask him, "You just want to give me this?" Looks like it's a little early. ”
In other words, Su Jinyao is a person who has died once, she can finally live again now, and there are still good times waiting for her, she really feels that it is too early to send wreaths. Looking at the rows of wreaths in front of her, Su Jinyao could only try to think about the benefits. Maybe it's because Gu Xuebin's thinking is jumping, and what he thinks is different from what others think, and the meaning he wants to express is also different? He didn't mean to send a wreath to himself, did it prove that he wanted to grow old with him? Or is it a vow to live and die together?
But no matter how much she thought about it, Su Jinyao felt a little awkward when she looked at those wreaths. I secretly wondered in my heart: Gu Xuebin, can we take some ordinary paths? Although all the rejections just now were a bit of a correction (qíng), but now it is still too to send wreaths directly if you don't agree with each other.
Unexpectedly, Gu Xuebin really pulled Su Jinyao to the store, and it seemed that a wreath couldn't run.
The guy at the wreath shop was also stunned when he saw a pair of handsome young men and women coming in. However, the guests came first, and they didn't think too much, so they came over and asked directly: "Do you want to order a wreath, or do you want to buy a ready-made one?" Do you want paper people and paper horses? There are also incense candles, ingots, yellow paper ......"
"Bring me a bundle of bamboo strips and colored paper. The paste also needs a bucket. Gu Xuebin waved his hand to stop the guy's sales pitch and directly said what he needed.
As soon as Gu Xuebin spoke, not only the guy at the wreath shop was stunned, but Su Jinyao was also stunned. This is to ...... The rhythm of making your own wreaths?
The corners of Su Jinyao's mouth twitched uncontrollably, but she didn't intend to stop her. Since Gu Xuebin has this thought, he (ài) sent a wreath made by himself, so he will keep it himself.
But the guy didn't move, and asked again: "This little brother, do you mean that you don't want ready-made wreaths, just bamboo strips, colored paper, and paste?" ”
"Yes, prepare as I say. Oh, by the way, and the silk rope, the kind of very tough silk rope with cow tendons. After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, he took out a piece of broken silver.
As soon as the guy sees that there is money to be made, and he doesn't have to do his own handiwork, then he can make a lot of money just by selling these things. After collecting the money, the man wrapped a bundle of sharpened bamboo strips with his hands and feet, and went to the inner room to get a few rolls of colored paper. There are various colors of flowers, tied with a rope, and handed to Gu Xuebin.
Then he said "wait a minute", and ran outside, I don't know whether I went to the warehouse, or went somewhere else to borrow a bundle of silk rope that was sold, and handed it to Gu Xuebin.
Finally, a small bucket of paste was proposed, and the guy said, "This little brother, can you send me this iron bucket of paste?" The brushes are also lent to you. ”
"Okay, I'll give it back to you when I've used it." After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, he handed the colored paper and silk rope to Su Jinyao to hold. He held the bundle of bamboo in one hand and a small iron bucket filled with paste in the other, and said to Su Jinyao: "Let's go, go out of the city." ”
"Huh?" Su Jinyao was still stunned, not knowing what Gu Xuebin was going to do. But since everything has been bought, it's better to listen to him.
There is no need to walk far from the city from here, Gu Xuebin and Su Jinyao walked out of the city quickly, found an open place, and the two of them sat down.
Su Jinyao asked, "What are you going to do when you run out again?" When you go into the city for a while, you have to teach a poll tax. It's really troublesome to get in and out, and I don't know what the government thinks. This city belongs to the people, and it is not anyone's backyard, so how can you go through the city gate and ask for money. ”
Gu Xuebin's eyes condensed slightly when he heard this, turned his head to look at the city gate they came out of just now, and said: "This is a way for the government to increase taxes, and it is also to facilitate management, so as to prevent some displaced people from entering and leaving wantonly and affecting the security of the city." ”
"Could it be that there are a lot of displaced people?" Su Jinyao untied the string tied with colored paper, and said, "If the country is peaceful and the people are safe, how can anyone want to wander around." I think it's still a matter of official government self (shēn). It is better to think about how to make the people live a good life, so that everyone can live comfortably and freely, and no one will want to sin. If such a thing (qíng) becomes a normal phenomenon, then it will not be far from the people who have risen up (rì). ”
Gu Xuebin squinted his eyes, and when he heard Su Jinyao say, his eyes became deeper and deeper.
As soon as Su Jinyao raised her head after speaking, she saw Gu Xuebin looking thoughtful, as if she had something on her mind. He shook his hand in front of his eyes and said, "Hey, don't be in a daze, you haven't said what you're doing with these things?" Don't say you really want to tie a wreath for me. I'll be able to collect it again in a hundred years. ”
"Ha, not a wreath." Gu Xuebin came back to his senses at this time, looked at Su Jinyao's pouting mouth, pinched the tip of her small nose, and said, "Even if you and I are a hundred years later, we don't need to do the work of making wreaths ourselves." I'm going to do something else. ”
"What the hell are you going to do?" Su Jinyao looked at these things in front of her, she really lacked imagination, so she couldn't guess what Gu Xuebin was planning.
Gu Xuebin smiled and didn't say anything, just took out the bamboo strip, bent it a few times to try toughness (xìng), and then got busy.
Su Jinyao didn't know what he was going to do, so naturally she couldn't help, so she had to sit aside and watch first.
It's just that although the bamboo strip has been shaved and polished with barbs, the bamboo skin is still very sharp. When Gu Xuebin bent the bamboo strip, his finger was cut by the bamboo skin, and the blood immediately flowed out.
"Ah, why are you so careless." Su Jinyao did have something to help this time (qíng). Hurriedly took out the handkerchief and cut a strip with a knife for Gu Xuebin to wrap the wound.
Gu Xuebin smiled and said, "It's okay, I don't care about this little injury." Jinyao, do you see what I'm going to do? ”
"I can't see it, it looks like it's still a wreath." Su Jinyao looked at Gu Xuebin's bamboo strips bent into two semicircles, still not knowing why.
But before Gu Xuebin could say anything, there was another wound on his thin white finger. This time the cut was deeper, and the blood gushed out of the fingertips, dripping down the fingertips, and dripping onto a small grass.
Su Jinyao felt distressed for a while, grabbed Gu Xuebin's hand and said, "Okay, I know what you're going to do, this is obviously self-harm." Forget it, it's not uncommon for me to do anything you do, let's go back and buy candied fruit to go shopping, and then buy some rouge gouache and bead hairpin jewelry. As long as it's from you, I like it. Nothing new or new, cheesy stuff is more real. ”
Hearing Su Jinyao say this, Gu Xuebin smiled slightly, and pulled back his right hand that was wrapped in another finger,
