Chapter 38 Medicinal Herb Village

The news that Miss Jinxian withdrew from the marriage in order not to drag down the second young master of the Luo family spread out quickly, and Nanjiang City was shocked.

Some people admired Jinxian's temperament, and some people angrily scolded the Luo family for agreeing to withdraw from the marriage and boycotting the Luo family's shop, but these people didn't know the pain in the second young master's heart.

The second young master's affection for Jinxian was unfulfilled, and he tried to redeem his marriage contract with her many times.

But Miss Jinxian had no intention of him, and the old lady obstructed him in every possible way, and the cancellation of the marriage was a foregone conclusion. It's just that he deceived himself and pretended not to see the situation clearly.

The eldest young master turned a deaf ear to all kinds of discussions from the outside, and Nanjiang City's resistance to the Luo family's shop could not afford to make a little storm for the Luo family's huge foundation. He was more concerned about the development of medicinal diets.

When it comes to my future livelihood, I dare not slack off. Cooking medicinal food in the kitchen every day, the smell of Chinese medicine on my body lingers for a long time. In addition to the lack of progress in development, there is another thing that concerns me.

The medicinal materials used in my medicinal diet were all taken from the Luojia medicinal herb shop, so every time I came back with medicine from the front foot, the strange thing of someone grabbing the same medicine on the back foot reached my ears through the medicine boy who grabbed the medicine.

After the recipe was stolen, I got into it.

In Nanjiang City, the eldest young master has made a lot of enemies, but those who really have the courage to fight against the eldest young master, I only think of Miss Jinxian. She poached the fragrant cook last time, and this time she imitated the preparation of medicinal food, and she was determined to find us unhappy.

I told the eldest young master about this incident and my conjectures, and when he heard about it, he wrinkled his eyebrows and sent someone to check.

I was worried that Miss Jinxian had already obtained the complete medicinal diet prescription, and she would launch the medicinal diet first, and when the time came, we would lose the freshness of the medicinal diet, so I said to the eldest young master, "Young master, do you want to change the prescription?" ”

The eldest young master pondered for a moment and nodded slowly.

"You go pack up your baggage and go out with me for a few days." He said to me, as if he remembered something, and specifically instructed, "No one is allowed to take you." ”

The person who can be called me, the entire Luo family, only the personal maid Green Garden who was arranged at the beginning.

For Lu Yuan, a girl who was with her as soon as she entered the Luo family, I had a headache.

She remembered her duty of personal service and always wanted to be by my side. Because of this, it was easy for her to know some things about me. For example, the development of medicinal diets was also guessed by her not long ago.

The eldest young master specially told me not to bring anyone, I was afraid that her insistence on following would cause unhappiness, so I took advantage of her inattention to pack a few clothes, left a letter and followed the eldest young master.

As a master, I do this, and there is no one in ancient times.

When I got in the carriage, I knew we were going out of town. Xu is lately listening to Lu Yuan talk about the criticism of the Luo family by passers-by, and I always feel that I can hear the voices of people outside talking along the way.

The eldest young master began to close his eyes and rest since he got into the carriage, he was dark and green at the moment, I don't know what he had done during this time, and he didn't rest well.

I leaned against the small window, looking out through the small slit, the familiar two figures flashed by, I was startled, lifted the curtain and poked my head out.

That's right, it's Miss Jinxian and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The eldest young master breathed a long breath and slept well. I hesitated for a moment, not calling him awake.

Miss Jinxian was already doing things for the prince, and it shouldn't be strange for them to be together.

Blessed drove the carriage out of the city slowly, and the movement outside became smaller and smaller, until only the sound of the wheel of the carriage could be heard.

"Master, it's here."

The eldest young master opened his eyes and walked out. I followed closely behind, and when I got out of the car, all I saw was a small village.

The village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there are not many households in the village, but there are many fields. The fields are not planted with grain, but with medicinal herbs. Recently, I have read a lot of medical books, and I can recognize many kinds of medicinal materials, but some of them are still unrecognizable.

This village is simply a garden of herbs.

"Brother Luo!" After standing for a while, a number of rustic villagers poured out of the village, and the little boy with the horn whip shouted happily and ran forward.

The eldest young master was surrounded by children, with a little smile on his face, and he was blessed to take out a lot of food and play from the carriage and give it to the children, causing a burst of laughter.

I was amazed, wondering what kind of village this was, which could make the eldest young master show such a gentle expression.

"Master." The white-bearded village chief on crutches waved the child away and said to the eldest young master respectfully.

The eldest young master regained his indifferent look, and there was a look of relief in his eyes. It is not difficult to see that he is not defensive against these people in the face of the people in Nanjiang City.

"I've suddenly come here to get medicinal herbs, and I'm tired of you."

"The master is polite," said the village chief, "You saved the lives of our entire village, and a few small medicine fields are worth worrying about." ”

The villagers chimed in.

When the village chief saw me, he asked in amazement, "I have never seen this girl, who is she?" ”

"She's Jin Lan, my right-hand man. For some reason, you will often come here with me in the future. The eldest young master patiently explained.

"I see, Miss Jin is polite." The village chief touched his beard and said with a smile.

I smiled back, "The village chief doesn't have to be polite, just call me Jin Lan." ”

With these medicinal materials in the medicine field, I don't need to go to the pharmacy to buy them in the future, and I don't have to worry about the prescription leaking.

The village chief told me that the village was called Medicinal Herb Village, and that there were only 20 households in the village. Because of the hidden location, it is rare for outsiders to visit, and it is difficult for them to go out.

Originally, the village only grew food, but the output was insufficient, and every family lived in a tight situation, and many people in the village starved to death during the famine year a few years ago. The eldest young master came by chance, brought food to them, and instructed the villagers to abandon the grain and plant medicinal herbs instead.

All the medicinal materials produced every year are sold to the Luo family, and the price given by the eldest young master is fair, and the life in the village is gradually getting better because of him, so the villagers of the medicinal herb village are very grateful to this young master. Although he is not the slave of the eldest young master, he is willing to call him master.

Is the eldest young master such a kind person? The smiling young master who distributed food and the big young master who held a bloody human head were intertwined in his mind. What kind of person he really is a mystery.

The eldest young master has his own house in the medicinal herb village, which is not big, but it is complete. The house is usually unoccupied, and now it has accumulated a layer of dust.

I called for water to clean up, and the eldest young master and Youfu went to buy food from the villagers for the next few days.

Wipe the table and sweep the dust, make the bed and wash the stove...... Unfamiliar houses, familiar chores.

Compared with the pampered life of the Luo family, I prefer the simplicity of the medicinal herb village everywhere that needs to be done by yourself.

After the house was cleaned up, the eldest young master came back. He carried the food he bought, looked at the renovated house, and nodded with satisfaction.

I looked at the door and looked, but I never saw the blessed figure, and while taking the things in the young master's hand and putting them away, I asked, "Young master, how blessed are you?" ”

"He's back."

"Huh?" I was surprised, he abandoned me and the eldest young master and went back alone?

The eldest young master: "I have other things for him to do, so I told him to go back." ”

Blessed is not there, the work of taking care of the eldest young master naturally falls on me, this is nothing, what makes me uncomfortable is that there are only me and him left in the house, two people, a man and a woman.

After dusk, I lit a fire to cook, and the eldest young master repaired the holes in the roof and the corners of the broken windows everywhere, feeling that we were ...... Like a couple.

Because of the strange thoughts, I was very uncomfortable, and my eyes looked at the eldest young master from time to time, and I didn't understand why he didn't bring two more people.

He is usually very careful in his life, and it is the first time I have seen him go out without a servant who knows how to handle like this.

And what amazes me, how can he tinker?

I don't know which wild cat didn't have long eyes and dug a hole in the roof of the blue-brick bedroom. I wanted to wait for Youfu to come back and let him make up for it, but after I knew that he left, I wanted to make up for it myself, but I saw that the eldest young master Youya Youzai brought a ladder and went up to the roof with the tiles very naturally.

In the past, I saw him dancing and writing, where did he learn this housekeeping skill?

Holding the paste and window paper to paste the window, he suddenly looked over, "Rice, paste." ”

I came back to my senses and hurried to save the rice in the pot.

Lift the lid of the pot, and the yard is full of paste.

"I don't eat mushy food." The eldest young master came over to look at it and said disgustedly.

As a peasant girl who is proficient in housework, she cooked a pot of rice in front of her master on the first day of her new home, which was extremely embarrassing.

Neither of us ate the paste. I switched to noodles for dinner and lay poached eggs.

As for the pot of rice, the Luo family has a big business, and it is nothing to waste a pot of rice.

"You added herbs?" The eldest young master picked up the poached egg, looked at the few medicines underneath, and asked.

"Well, it was developed earlier." When he came back from buying, he took some medicinal herbs, and I had the heart to make up for the mistake of pasting the pot, so I specially made medicinal noodles.

After taking a bite, the eldest young master said expressionlessly: "The taste is acceptable." ”

Compared to before, it is not easy to get this sentence. I spontaneously equated his taste with the excellent taste of others, and the development of medicinal diets made great progress.

Happy, I said to him, "I still have a few medicinal dishes, but unfortunately there are not enough ingredients to make them, otherwise I can give you a taste." ”

"Tell me how."

I talked about the recipes of the medicinal diet and the ingredients needed, and he listened patiently, occasionally giving advice, and he made the choices that were usually difficult to decide.

I was very interested, and I wanted to start a fire and make all kinds of ideas come to fruition one by one.

In the middle of the night, I couldn't sleep with excitement, and I thought that tomorrow I must make all the medicinal food that I didn't make today.

"Master." There were a few voices outside the door, and I quietly opened a crack in the window to look out, and several men in black were kneeling on the ground, respectfully facing the people in front of them.

The eldest young master was wearing the white fox coat I specially prepared for him before going to sleep, and he was talking to the man in black in a low voice.

I closed the window and pretended to be asleep.

It turns out that he and I are not alone, and there are many people around him.

There were a few inexplicable emotions in my heart, and the excitement calmed down in a few breaths, and I slowly fell asleep.

When I got up the next day, several black-clothed people in the night were nowhere to be seen, only me and the eldest young master sat and ate opposite each other, quiet and silent. Only the extra ingredients on the stove proved that someone had been here last night, and they also brought me medicinal ingredients.

I don't ask where the ingredients come from, and the eldest young master doesn't take the initiative to explain. After tasting the medicinal food, they still discussed it with me, but I was not as excited as before.

In the next few days, the medicinal diet was slowly developed, and my teeth were fragrant and ready to be reopened.
