Chapter 5: Scallops want to applaud when they hear it
The thug screamed in pain, his lower body was weak, and he sat on the ground in a kneeling position.
Another needle, only to see a flash of silver light, in an instant has pierced the other person's dumb door acupoint, that person did not even have a chance to exclaim, only to feel dazzled, in front of the dark almost fainted.
Lin Xi's subordinates showed mercy, but only sealed the man's dumb hole, and the other person was at risk of being paralyzed.
The dumb man screamed hoarsely, but could not make a sound, and in great fear, he pointed viciously at a circle of onlookers, and fled in a hurry with his brother who had fallen to the ground. Lin Xi sneered.
The old man looked at the scene in disbelief, and when the farce finally ended, he sighed and struggled to get up.
"Old man, are you alright?" A girl in a light blue skirt in front of him reached out to help him, wearing a veil to see his face clearly, her eyes were bright and clear, more beautiful than glass.
Hand over the packed baggage.
"Thank you, thank you." The old man hurriedly thanked him.
"Business is not good, right?" Lin Xi asked.
The old man took the burden and sighed, his face full of sadness, "This is Master Luo's territory, and you have to ask for instructions and pay the fee for everything you sell...... Gadgets made of wood like this don't sell much, they don't make much money, and my wife is sick again......" The old man smiled at Lin Xi and handed her and Yu Yu a handful of jujube combs, "Thank you for helping me up, little girl." As he spoke, he tied his burden to his body and staggered forward.
Lin Xi looked at the jujube wood comb in his hand and fell into thought.
Don't sell much?
Indeed, this old man's comb is simple and unpretentious, and he is not loved by the girl, and it is not a brand, nor is it favored by Zhong Mingding's food family...... What if you upgrade the process and make it more beautiful?
No, the cost of this thing is not high, and it can't be sold too expensive anyway, and there is also the squeezing of the head snake, and the profit is even more minimal.
What if sales are expanded? I'm afraid the market has been preempted!
"I heard that the sacred tree of Anguo Temple in the south of the city is very effective, so let's also go and pray for a blessing to bless my daughter-in-law with a safe birth." The woman who passed by was talking to her husband.
"Okay, I'll go tomorrow!"
Lin Xi suddenly brightened up, patted the frustrated water, "Go, help others for fun!" ”
Yu Yu followed suspiciously, and the two immediately rushed to find the old man just now.
"Wait, wait! Elderly! Lin Xi and Yu Wan finally found him, but fortunately, the old man had bad legs and walked slowly.
"I know some medical skills, why don't you take me to see my grandmother?"
I was surprised, when will Miss know how to heal?
The old man smiled, "Thank you, little girl, I have received your wishes, but my family lives outside the city, far away." ”
"It's okay, my sister and I are out of town today."
Rolling blush.
"It's dangerous outside the city, little girl, go home quickly." The old man was also kind.
"We are not afraid of danger!" Yu said.
Lin Xi looked at the little girl, and the little girl's eyes were full of passion for helping.
The old man persuaded him for a long time, but to no avail, so he took the two girls on a long journey back to his home outside the northern city.
"The house is simple, and the girl should not be disgusted." The old man pushed open the small door made of the fence. Lin Xi saw that there were wooden tables and tools for carving, and bamboo stills for making wine in the small courtyard, and the courtyard exuded the fragrance of wine.
The old man lifted up the dilapidated door curtain in the living room, and Lin Xi saw that the house was surrounded by four walls, blocking Xiao Ran. Lin Xi heard a constant and weak cough from the living room.
"Old woman, I'm back!" The old man lifted the curtain, staggered into the house, and gently placed the burden on the old wooden table, so as not to let the unsellable wood products collide and make a sound.
He brought a stool to Lin Xi, Lin Xi sat down, and said to the pale old woman, "Grandma stretch out her hand, I'll show you." ”
The old lady smiled softly when she saw the two little girls, and although she was suspicious of the little girl's medical skills, she still stretched out her hand.
Lin Xi quietly checked the pulse, looked and asked, "The pulse is thin, the tongue is light, and the face is pale." She thought for a moment and asked, "Feeling chest tightness and panting, palpitations, and fatigue after the activity?" ”
The old grandmother nodded.
Lin Xi smiled, he couldn't see clearly with a veil, but his smiling eyes were like crescent moons, "It's okay, it's a minor illness." Just take a few pills! ”
She saw the old couple's faces beaming, "We'll come over tomorrow to deliver the medicine." ”
"Then what's so embarrassing, the girl writes down the prescription, and we'll catch it ourselves." The old woman said that they were so embarrassed to let the two girls come all the way to deliver the medicine!
Lin Xi thought for a while, "It's okay, but uncle, tomorrow you bring a few combs, and you have to punch holes, tie tassels, and engrave these words......"
Lin Xi briefly explained his thoughts to them and agreed on a meeting place.
The more the old couple listened, the brighter their eyes became, as if they saw hope.
After talking for a while, she felt that the young lady seemed to know a lot, saying things she had never heard before.
The old man smiled too, and saw his wrinkles unfold......
"Just send it here!" Yu Yu waved his hand to the old man and took Lin Xi back to the city.
"Miss, you're so amazing! When did you learn medicine? "I stumbled all the way.
"Oh, that's right. One day Miss I dreamed of a fairy man, he said that I was too handsome, so handsome that it was unreasonable, he was jealous of me, so he forced me to eat paper, who knew that I was eating a drug book, so I would be able to heal, haha! ”
Yu smiled awkwardly, saying that her young lady's nonsense skills were really no one.
"Miss, don't you blush when you say that? I'm ashamed of you! ”
"That's because you're thin-skinned, if you are a girl, you can't be as red as a spicy crayfish every day?"
"What's the object?" Confused.
Lin Xi forgot that he didn't understand the modern proper vocabulary, and explained: "It's Lang Qing concubine, before the flower and under the moon, you and I don~"
Sure enough, his face turned red, and then he was embarrassed, it was really the world of foodies, and even a figurative sentence couldn't be separated from lobsters, and he remembered Lin Xi's applause - the palms were close to each other, and the two hands swam in the air when they applauded, "This is called 'scallops want to applaud when they hear it', it's interesting!" Lin Xi didn't forget to explain to the three of them. Ah, that's funny. "Ah, Miss is amazing." "Ah, it's so vivid." The exclamation points of the three people all turned into full stops very tacitly.
Thinking about it, she laughed out loud, Lin Xi was shy when she was shy.
"By the way, Miss, this is the braised egg I borrowed from the kitchen!" Yu helped Lin Xi peel off the leaves and handed them over.
Borrowed? Lin Xi smiled.
The city vendors had gone home, and they were still wandering the suburbs, sighing.
Lin Xi was so moved that he touched his tears, "I'm so moved, this braised egg is so kind!" ”
She held the braised egg high and watched the braised egg glow beautifully under the sun.
Behind a dog, gaining momentum, jumping, soaring, and then, biting!
Lin Xi didn't know why, he only saw a black, yellow, black, yellow, and hairy thing flashing next to him, and when he raised his eyes, he found that the braised egg had been bitten to the point that there was almost nothing left!
Lin Xi opened his mouth wide in surprise, and felt that a cloud of anger was burning beside him, "Little, Miss......"
