Song Dacheng couldn't do any heavy work during his recuperation, but fortunately, the batch of goods given by Liu Dart Tou had been completed, and Song Qi could be sent to the Dart Bureau Branch of Feng County another day.

Song Shuyun went up the mountain again, collected a lot of gums, and went to search near the rock mass for another day, this time not only orpiment, but also found two pieces of lapis lazuli and a piece of malachite.

The lapis lazuli was blue, and the malachite was stone green, so Song Shuyun carefully put away a few stones and went home to start making ink blocks. The pine smoke that was refined last time was carefully preserved, and it happened to be used this time.

At dinner, Song Dacheng learned that his daughter needed to use a pot to cook glue, so he secretly made a small pot for Song Shuyun that night, and also gave a wooden handle to make it easier for her to take it.

Song Shuyun, who got up the next day to prepare to boil the glue, was surprised to see the small pot, which was somewhat similar to the frying pan in her previous life, but she was even more surprised that her father actually got up in the middle of the night to strike iron.

"Dad, the doctor said you can't do heavy work, why don't you listen?" Song Shuyun likes this pot, but he is more worried about his father's body, in case something happens to him, Song Shuyun is afraid that he will blame himself for the rest of his life.

Song Dacheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's effortless to fight this, can Qiqi like it?" ”

"Well, I like it, but Daddy can't do that next time." Song Shuyun was worried, but fortunately, Song Dacheng repeatedly assured that she would not work again until the injury was healed, so she was relieved.

With this pot, it is indeed convenient for her to cook glue and materials, Song Shuyun didn't waste time, she had to make alum glue blocks and send them to the old doctor in the medical hall before her brother went to deliver the goods.

Song Shuyun melted the gum and added just the right amount of alum, waited until the two fused together, and then poured it into the wood mold prepared by the second brother in advance, and waited until it solidified and formed.

Put the alum gum block aside and wait, Song Shuyun picked up a small piece of gum and put it in the pot to melt, and then poured the refined pine smoke into it, poured it out and beat it after it was cooked evenly, and then put it into the mold.

Song Shuyun spent two days of hard work for this piece of ink and alum glue, but fortunately, they were all successful.

"Daddy, my second brother and I are going to the town to deliver goods." It should have been Song Qi who was going to deliver the goods, and he also knew the road. But because Song Dacheng was injured, the Zhang family couldn't do the work in the field at home alone, so Song Qi could only stay at home to help.

Fortunately, the second brother Song Zhiyuan is also calm and can take charge alone, and when Zhang watched his son and daughter go out in a rented carriage, he felt a little emotional. She and Dacheng are very happy and lucky, and the children can be in charge and filial.

When he was on the way, Song Shuyun kept playing with the ink block in his hand, thinking that Song Xiaosi could save a lot of money by going to the school in the future, and couldn't help laughing.

Song Zhiyuan glanced back at his smiling sister, and then looked at the ink block in her hand, thoughtfully.

The two entered the city smoothly, and Song Zhiyuan inquired all the way and found the dart board without much effort and sent the goods in. Song Shuyun had been waiting for him outside, sitting at the door still thinking about his ink block.

"Where did this poor girl come from, what are you doing sitting at the door of our dart game? Why don't you get away yet? "There were several people coming out of the game, and the one who spoke was a young man who looked fifteen or sixteen, full of arrogance.

Song Shuyun looked up at him when he heard the sound, and the young man's eyes lit up and he smiled: "You look good, what are you doing in front of the dart game?" But lost? ”

"Wait for my brother, we're here to deliver to the dart board." Song Shuyun lowered his eyes and whispered, the young man raised his eyebrows slightly and turned his head and asked, "What goods?" ”

The guard at the door didn't know, so he shook his head. It happened that Song Zhiyuan came out at this time, and he didn't know what was happening at the door, so he smiled and wanted to take his sister away, but was stopped by the young man.

"The whereabouts of the two of you are unknown, this son needs to check carefully, in case you are the enemy's people, don't you want me to lose the dart game?" The young man stared at Song Shuyun and swallowed his saliva, Song Shuyun couldn't help frowning-how could there be such a person in the dart game?

Song Zhiyuan stepped forward and saluted slightly, and said without humility or arrogance: "This batch of goods was personally sent to my home by Mr. Liu and asked my father to repair it. It's not an enemy, this son doesn't have to worry. ”

"Oh? Mr. Liu's dart head? Seeing that you don't look like a rich family, my son has never seen you in the city, why do you believe that you know Mr. Liu's dart, and let him deliver the goods in person, you have such a big face. The young man raised his eyebrows and looked at the Song family brothers and sisters meaninglessly.

Song Shuyun pursed his lips and muttered, "Dogs look down on people." ”

"What did you say?" The people around the young man immediately drew their swords and faced each other, Song Zhiyuan stretched out his hand and pulled his sister behind him, "Little sister is still young and ignorant, please forgive me." ”

"Forgive me?" The young man hooked his lips and smiled lightly, looked at Song Shuyun carefully, and said with no clear meaning: "This son will meet me." ”

Song Shuyun always felt that he was a little abnormal, so he reached out and grabbed his second brother, and ran away with his feet. Song Zhiyuan also reacted quickly, and when he saw that his sister had jumped onto the donkey cart, he quickly got on it and ran away with the donkey cart.

"Go after it." The young man's eyes were a little gloomy, but at the same time he felt interesting, and he ordered the people around him to chase him out.

Song Shuyun didn't plan to run far, she still had to go to the hospital to give the old doctor alum gum blocks, and she couldn't be untrustworthy. It was she who pointed the way and asked Song Zhiyuan to drive the donkey cart to the front of the hospital, and then she ran in to find the old doctor.

"Old man, this is the alum gum block promised to you last time, stir it with water when you use it." Song Shuyun ran out in a hurry, hurriedly explained and ran out, and Lao Langzhong saw this and hurriedly asked the medicine boy to stop her.

"You haven't explained it yet, what are you doing in such a hurry?" There are no patients in the hospital for a while, and Lao Langzhong still wants to ask more about color ink. The paint plate that Song Shuyun gave him last time was lost by his little granddaughter, and he was thinking about ordering or buying some more.

Song Shuyun's eyes were anxious, and he said worriedly: "My brother and I are hiding, I'll talk to you about it next time." Song Shuyun still wanted to leave, but the old gentleman glanced at the medicine boy, and then smiled and said, "What's the matter?" Tell me about it. ”

"I don't know......" Before Song Shuyun finished speaking, the young man's person had already chased after her, she was very worried about the comfort of the second brother, and just wanted to go out to find someone, she was stopped by Lao Langzhong, and the young man's person just entered the hospital at this moment.

The young man squinted his eyes and said to the old man in front of him: "Old man, you stay aside, otherwise your old arms and legs will not be responsible for any damage." ”

Lao Langzhong chuckled, Song Shuyun didn't know why, at this moment she wanted to know where the second brother had gone, and why it was gone in the blink of an eye.

Just when Song Shuyun was looking for the second brother, Song Zhiyuan was brought in by the medicine boy, and the medicine boy held up a sign in front of the young man, and the latter's eyes instantly became respectful and apologized again and again.

"I don't know Taishan with my eyes, please forgive me." As soon as the young man changed his arrogant and domineering spirit, he saluted respectfully, and Lao Lang Zhongben didn't want to get along with a child, so he waved his hand and let him go.

Song Shuyun looked at Lao Langzhong in surprise, she knew very well that this old gentleman was not an ordinary Langzhong, but she didn't plan to get to the bottom of it, these things were not something she could touch.

"Thank you, old gentleman, for your help." Song Shuyun bowed, Lao Langzhong helped her up, and said with a smile: "Girl, now you can tell me about the glue." ”

Song Shuyun nodded and told the use of alum glue in detail. It is nothing more than brushing alum glue on the rice paper of the painting, and then painting it again after the painting is finished. The first pass is to prevent the paper from being rendered by ink, and the second pass is to keep the color unchanged.

"Cut a little when you use it, then soak it in cold water to melt it in warm water, don't mix it with too much water." Song Shuyun pursed his lips and pondered for a moment, and then said: "If you grind the ink, you don't need to paint the first layer of glue water, it's a bit wasteful." ”

Lao Langzhong's eyes were a little embarrassed, and he looked at Song Shuyun and didn't know how to speak, but after this look, he found that something was wrong: "Girl, do you have a secret disease?" ”

Song Shuyun was stunned when he heard this, but also nodded. The old man took her to the consultation table and began to take her pulse, "The congenital fetus is insufficient, and then the cold invades the body, if this disease is not treated early, the body will get worse and worse in a few years." ”

Song Shuyun pursed her lips and was silent, she didn't expect this disease to be so serious. Song Zhiyuan stepped forward a little anxiously and asked, "Mr. Langzhong, how is my sister doing?" ”

"The pulse is vain, this disease can't be cured in a day or two, so let's do it, I'll prescribe a prescription for you." After that, Lao Langzhong listed several medicinal materials on the paper and handed them to the scholar, and he continued to say to the Song family brothers and sisters: "This is a medicine to nourish the body, right now your body is too weak, you can't use the medicine to get rid of cold, the medicinal properties of that medicine are too domineering." ”

Song Shuyun nodded slightly, took out the money bag from the cloth bag and handed it to the second brother, and the old man hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop it: "Girl, I won't show you today's illness in vain, it's just that I don't want money, I just want a piece of colored ink that you said last time." To tell you the truth, the water and ink you gave me last time were all used by my granddaughter to play. ”

"But I don't have any ink in my hand, so why don't I give you the money first? I'll send it to you. Song Shuyun chuckled lightly and said, "You also said that my illness will not get better for a while and a half, I am afraid that I will come over to trouble you from time to time, and you are still afraid that I will not be able to repay the debt?" ”

Lao Langzhong touched his beard and pondered for a long time, and finally nodded and accepted Song Shuyun's silver. The medicines he prescribed to Song Shuyun were all excellent, and a few pairs of medicines cost a few dollars of silver.

Song Shuyun looked at the medicine bag that the second brother was carrying, and sighed silently - you have to hurry up and earn money, otherwise you can't afford to drink the medicine yourself. Song Zhiyuan was very happy to help his sister get on the donkey cart, at least his sister's illness was cured.

As for how much it costs, he and his eldest brother have the ability, are you afraid that you won't be able to earn money for medicine for your sister? But the top priority is to go back to make an inkstone for his sister, just now he saw the inkstone used by Lao Lang in the hospital, he remembered what it looked like, and when he went back, he carved one himself, maybe my sister would be very happy to see it.

Song Shuyun sat in the back and wanted to make money, Song Zhiyuan set up a donkey cart in front of him to think about the inkstone, and the brother and sister went out on the way home with their own thoughts.
