Chapter 32: Awkward Sleeping

There is an ox cart to the town at the entrance of the village, but considering that the weather is not hot now, Fu Xiaojiu and Wan Pozi decided to walk to the town in order to save ten yuan in fare.

On the road, many people also chose to walk to the town, although Wan Pozi is a strong mother-in-law, but the popularity is not bad, and many people on the road asked her about Wan Lin.

Fu Xiaojiu has now become a celebrity in the village, if it weren't for Wan Pozi to stop her, she would almost be watched.

Some people believe in Fu Xiaojiu's ability, and some people still question her, Wan Pozi told them that if they want to see Fu Xiaojiu, they will come to Wanjia in seven days, but if someone comes to make trouble, she will definitely not be polite.

Everyone in the village knows Wan Pozi's temper and knows that she is not easy to mess with, so they all promised that if they came to Fu Xiaojiu for medical treatment, they would definitely not make trouble.

Walking while talking to people, they didn't feel how far and tired the distance was, and when Fu Xiaojiu just felt hot, they had already come to the town.

Although this town is a town, it is actually more than the village with a shop street that can be seen at a glance, and there are more tiled houses.

There is a pharmacy in the town, the scale is not large, but the medicinal materials are complete, but the price is not cheap.

As soon as Fu Xiaojiulai and Mrs. Wan walked into the pharmacy, the guys from the pharmacy greeted them very warmly.

Wan Pozi has not bought medicine here before, although the medicine she buys every time is not much, and this is not a decimal number for many years.

"Or do you want to take the medicine according to your previous prescription?" The guys have memorized Wan Lin's prescription.

Wan Pozi smiled and shook her head, "Little brother, I don't have to buy medicine for my son this time!" ”

If it weren't for Wan Pozi's jubilant joy, the guy would have almost thought that Wan Lin was over.

"Your son's illness is cured?" The guy asked incredulously.

Wan Pozi nodded, "Yes, my son's is all right!" We're here this time to buy other medicinal herbs. ”

The guy glared and asked, "He's cured?" What's good? Have you called for a miracle doctor? ”

The shopkeeper in charge of catching the medicine also raised his head incredulously, unable to believe Wan Pozi's words.

"Didn't my son get married a few days ago......" Wan Pozi recounted the events of that day with high interest, and stunned both the guy and the shopkeeper.

"Is it this little lady who got the medical skills taught by the gods in her dream?"

The shopkeeper leaned forward slightly, wanting to look at Fu Xiaojiu more carefully.

Wan Pozi said proudly: "Yes, it is my third daughter-in-law, the reincarnation of the auspicious star, who has to learn medical skills in a dream to cure my son!" ”

Fu Xiaojiu had a polite smile on his face, and he was already embarrassed in his heart, so he hurriedly said to Mrs. Wan: "Mother, it's time for us to grab medicine, there are still a lot of things that haven't been purchased." ”

Wan Pozi hurriedly closed the conversation, "Look at my brain, I almost forgot to get down to business." ”

After Fu Xiaojiu made a purchase in the pharmacy, she bought the materials for the concoction of medicinal materials and the few flavors of medicine that were missing, and all the copper coins in her pocket were spent, and she also borrowed another amount of money from Mrs. Wan to buy a set of basic acupuncture needles.

Seeing that Fu Xiaojiu was very professional in purchasing materials, the shopkeeper and the guy in the pharmacy were also impressed by her.

Although there are two or three Langzhong in the town, no one is as professional as Fu Xiaojiu.

Before Fu Xiaojiu left, the shopkeeper deliberately said to her: "Little lady, your business will be good in the future, but you have to come to me often to buy medicinal materials, and I will give you a cheap price!" ”

Wan Pozi responded happily: "It's easy to say, let's come back in a while!" ”

Out of the door of the medicinal herb shop, Fu Xiaojiu asked, "Mother, how far is it from the town to the county seat?" ”

Wan Pozi thought for a while and said, "It takes thirty or forty miles from the town to the county seat, do you still want to go to the county seat?" ”

Fu Xiaojiu nodded, "I want to go to the county seat to have a look." There is only one pharmacy in this town, and the price is bound to be more expensive. And I also want to go to the county town to see the pharmacies and medical halls there, which can broaden my horizons. ”

"You have the right words. So you want to go today? Although Wan Pozi also supports Fu Xiaojiu's decision, she has no money on her, and the travel expenses have become a problem.

Fu Xiaojiu explained: "I don't want to go to the county seat today, I just ask first, and I have a good number in my heart." ”

Wan Pozi breathed a sigh of relief for the time being, "Nacheng, when we have time, let's go to the county seat to have a look." ”

On the way back, Wan Pozi's heart was a little drumming.

She almost spent all the money in her hand, and Fu Xiaojiu had to treat people in seven days, and she didn't know when her silver would be recovered.

Liu gritted his teeth and tightened his belt, and bought ten chicken cubs in one go, Mo didn't know what her intentions were, and stood aside to watch her liveliness.

But Mo Shi was not idle, she slowly walked around the yard with her waist up, always thinking about what kind of business was cheap and profitable.

Fu Xiaojiu went out with Wan Pozi this time, Wan Lin was not so worried, he was still reading the book intently, and the two of them came back.

Fu Xiaojiu entered the house and took the ginseng hidden under the bed to Wan Lin's bookcase, cut off the reeds with a knife, and then carefully cut more than half of the ginseng into thin slices, and kept the little half to make red ginseng.

Wan Lin stood aside with the book and watched Fu Xiaojiu busy with his work, and asked cautiously, "Lady, are you starting to concoct ginseng?" ”

Fu Xiaojiu said without raising his head: "Hmm." I need your favor right now. ”

Wan Lin immediately responded: "You can tell me what you need me to do!" ”

Wan Lin's positive attitude made Fu Xiaojiu couldn't help laughing, raised his head to look at Wan Lin and said, "These ginseng ginseng has to be dried into dry films, and the window on this side of your bookcase is facing the courtyard wall where there is no one." These ginseng are left to dry in the window, and you can just take care of them when you are fine. ”

"That's all I have to do?" Wan Lin felt that this matter was too easy, and he didn't give him any chance to perform.

Fu Xiaojiu said with a serious expression: "Don't think this is an easy errand, this ginseng is precious, if it is eaten by an insect or a bird, it will be bad!" ”

Wan Lin immediately replied with a serious expression: "Yes, lady, I must remember the teachings of the lady and take this ginseng seriously." ”

Fu Xiaojiu is not so repulsive when she hears Wan Lin call herself "lady" now, but she just asks Wan Lin to call her "Xianggong" and "San Lang" or something, and she still can't open her mouth.

Fu Xiaojiu carefully spread the ginseng slices on the chair and moved them under the window.

"Okay, don't bother you with your reading, I'll go out first."

Fu Xiaojiu began to be officially busy, what should be steamed should be fried, what should be sliced should be powdered, she has an orderly concoctor.

Wan Pozi was taking care of Old Man Wan, and Wan Feizhi gave her a hand.

Wan Feizhi is not as squeamish as Fu Xiaojiu imagined, and she is quite satisfied with this apprentice.

The courtyard walls of Wanda and Waner were all completed in the morning, and everyone ate at noon, and Wanda stayed at home to build a chicken pen, while Liu was busy continuing to live the ten chicks.

Fu Xiaojiu and Wan Feizhi continued to concoct medicinal materials, and Mo Shi took care of Tietou and Xiaoni, and there was no idler in the family.

Fu Xiaojiu was busy in full swing, and Wan Pozi suddenly came to the stove room.

"I said Xiao Jiu, have you forgotten something?"

Fu Xiaojiu was frying chaihu, and asked without stopping, "What did I forget?" ”

Mrs. Wan walked to Fu Xiaojiu's side, and said with a somewhat complicated expression: "Generally, new daughters-in-law return to the door in three days, and as soon as you enter the door, you catch up with our family for a lot of things, and you are so busy that you forget to go back." That's what I just remembered, why don't you go back to your parents' house tomorrow? I'll go and bring it to you in a moment. ”

"Back to the door?" Fu Xiaojiu stopped.

Fu Xiaojiu remembered that the original Fu Xiaojiu's mother was long gone, and although her stepmother Zhu didn't abuse her much, she was also arrogant to her, and completely treated her as an animal.

The rich father is an honest man, the youngest son Kuizi is still too young, the family lacks labor, the main thing is that Fu Xiaojiu is fat even when she drinks water, she has such a big pestle there, even if she is asked to work more, she doesn't feel distressed.

At this time, Fu Xiaojiu remembered the days when she was angry at her mother's house, and she was really angry for her.

Even a fat man knows that he is tired, how can he really treat a big girl as a cow and horse!

Fu Xiaojiu didn't want to go back to the so-called mother's house, she didn't have any feelings for that side, and felt that going back would be a blockage.

And Wan Lin's body is just right, although Fu Xiaojiu's house is located in Fugui Village, which is only five or six miles away from Wanjiazhuang, Fu Xiaojiu doesn't want Wan Lin to toss back and forth, not only his body suffers, but also delays the time to study.

Fu Xiaojiu thought for a moment and replied, "Mother, I don't want to go back." I was also an unwelcome person, and they didn't want to see me. Besides, all the money in your hand has been used for me, how can I let you go to me to prepare gifts and return to the door? These medicinal materials have to be concocted quickly, and I can't leave now, so forget about returning to the door. ”

Not to mention anything else, Wan Pozi knew what Fu Xiaojiu's status was in the family after seeing Fu Xiaojiu's dowry.

After all, the rich father has already renewed the strings, and he has a son, and the virtue of the rich ninth queen mother is not good, and it is really not interesting for the rich Xiaojiu to go back.

Wan Pozi said understandingly: "That's okay, just listen to you, and forget about returning to the door." But if it's your father's birthday, if you want to go back, go back. ”

Fu Xiaojiu felt more and more that Mrs. Wan was a good mother-in-law, she felt that she seemed to be really lucky after being reborn once, although she was a fat girl, but the people she met were not bad, and everything went smoothly, so that she could show her strength.

Fu Xiaojiu was busy all day, and at night he had a sore back.

She was just about to get the couch, and suddenly remembered that the couch had collapsed by her, and she had already agreed with Wan Lin tonight that she would sleep in the same bed.

Wan Lin returned to the bookcase after washing, and seemed to have no intention of sleeping.

Fu Xiaojiu was also like a wooden pestle beside the bed, looking embarrassed.

"That...... How long are you going to watch it? You don't want to stay up all night reading, do you? ”

Fu Xiaojiu's heart was very awkward, and he struggled to even say a word.

Wan Lin's eyes were still staring at the book, and he said to Fu Xiaojiu calmly: "You go to sleep first, and then I will read the book." ”

God knows how nervous Wan Lin's heart is, he wants to wait for Fu Xiaojiu to fall asleep, and then he can go to the bed and take a side.

Fu Xiaojiu pursed his lips and had no choice but to say, "I'll sleep first, don't watch too late." ”

Fu Xiaojiu climbed onto the bed, leaning inward against the wall inside, but her heart was still beating hard.

Fu Xiaojiu forced herself to close her eyes and hurry to sleep, and when she fell asleep, she didn't know even if Wan Lin slept next to her, which saved a lot of embarrassment.

But she had a sore back and couldn't sleep, so she could only pretend to sleep with her eyes closed.

Almost half an hour later, Wan Lin peeked at Fu Xiaojiu and found that she was breathing evenly, and she no longer turned over, as if she was asleep.

Wan Lin put down the book, went to the bed lightly and lay down slowly.
