In the quiet courtyard, in the exquisite wing, the sandalwood with a good smell of the air rises and smokes people sleepily.

Fan Jian held a small sachet in his hand and looked at it carefully for a long time, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and then put the sachet back on the table.

The wood-colored table had a bottle of jade-colored wine and a crystal clear wine glass in addition to the sachets.

He expertly poured himself another glass of wine and poured it down without hesitation.

The liquor passes through the throat and pours down the throat, cì jī with every taste bud, is it bitter? Is it sweet? Or is it hearty?

I have a jug of wine, enough to soothe the dust. The wine entered the bowels and turned into lovesick tears.

The sachet on the table was filled with red beans, which was given to him by Pei Xiuxiu on the day of the first snow last year.

In addition to this, the year before last, the first snow Xiuxiu also gave him a sachet, which contained sun-dried herbs, and wore a faint herb fragrance on his body.

Snow, still snow, goose-feather snow falling from the sky one after another, chaotic into the charming eyes.

The ancient plum in the courtyard opened alone, red and dazzling.

A smiling girl, her face was red from the cold, and she stood aside and stomped her feet.

The crimson face is still beautiful, and her voice is like a hollow valley.

"This sachet is for you."

A gentle smile crossed Fan Jian's surprised eyes: "You embroidered it?" ”

The girl smiled slightly: "How can I?" This is what I asked Ling'er to embroider, and you don't know that I am clumsy. ”

"It's okay, it's the heart that matters." Fan Jian accepted the sachet and smiled in the snow.

Pei Xiuxiu's two hands that were red from the cold sometimes put them to her lips and sighed, and sometimes went to catch the snowflakes.

She said happily: "Do you know that this is filled with herbs, there are mugwort leaves, dried chrysanthemums, etc., which I specially prepared, and you can bring it with you to be beneficial to your body and prevent wind and cold." ”

"Well, I'll always have it with me."

Pei Xiuxiu looked at him in a daze, and there seemed to be a clear spring flowing in her shining eyes.

White snow fell on the eaves, treetops, dirt...... The land was covered in silver.

Two young men in their cardamom years quietly greeted the first snow of the year.

First snow, unforgettable first snow, who will be the one who will accompany you to watch the first snow?

Where is that person after all these years?

Fan Jian sighed, grabbed the sachet on the table again, and put it in front of his eyes to look at it.

This is a sachet embroidered with seven-colored gold thread, small and exquisite, and a few plum blossoms in the sachet are lifelike.

Fan Jian opened the sachet and took out a handful of red beans and put them in his palm.

"Exquisite dice An red beans, I don't know if I am lovesick to the bones." He softly chanted a line of poetry, infinitely sad.

"What the hell is wrong with you? Why did it change overnight? Could it be that lovesickness can also be controlled at will? Fan Jian smiled bitterly, poured a full bottle of wine and continued to drink.

"Red beans are born in the south, a few branches are sent in spring, may you pick more, this thing is the most lovesick."

Fan Jian's drunken eyes began to be a little sluggish, and he was still chanting the poem Red Beans in his mouth.

"I thought that from the day you gave me the red bean sachet, you and I have already made up our minds, why why? Can I change my mind overnight? Xiuxiu...... Xiuxiu ......"

The night in the mountains is quieter, and the drunken are more tired.

Pei Xiuxiu and Tie Zhu continued to set off with a full load of pills.

When he passed by Rong Er's house again, he saw Zheng Rong Er sitting on the threshold sadly and crying.

Pei Xiuxiu ran over in a panic and asked, "Rongji, why are you crying?" Did something happen? ”

When Rong Eryi saw that he was Xiuxiu, he cried even more sadly, and the bean-sized tears kept flowing, as if he had suffered great pain.

Pei Xiuxiu comforted: "Don't cry, what's wrong?" How's the aunt? Could it be that you are sick again? ”

Eiji cried and shouted, "My mother, she...... My mother, she's dead...... I don't have any more relatives in this life......"

The heart-rending cry echoed in the valley, and Pei Xiuxiu cried with red eyes: "Don't be sad, people can't be resurrected after death, how can she ...... aunt?" ”

Rong Er choked up intermittently: "Since you left, my mother's illness has gradually recovered, and I can walk on the ground. One day I didn't want to mention that I wanted to eat fish, and after I chopped firewood, my mother ran alone to catch fish by a creek five miles away...... Unexpectedly, she slipped and fell into the water, she was washed far away by the water along the stream, and when she was rescued, she was covered in injuries and dying. She died not long after I returned. It's all my fault, it's all my fault...... Why do I say I want to eat fish? If I don't say it, my mother won't die. I killed my mother...... Yes...... Woohoo......"

The sound of sobbing kept coming, and Rong Er picked up his fist and smashed it wildly at himself.

Xiuxiu and Tiezhu persuaded for a while before Rong Er quieted down.

In the next few days, after Pei Xiuxiu appeased Rong Er, she went to the eldest mother's grave to burn incense.

Before leaving, Pei Xiuxiu said to Rong Er: "Rong Er, remember that you are not alone in this world, I, Pei Xiuxiu, am still your friend, you follow me from now on, anyway, I am thinking about opening a restaurant and I am worried that there is no guy to help." ”

Rong Er hesitated and said: "I also want to go out with you, but my mother just died, and I still have to keep filial piety for her." ”

"Well, I heard from your villagers that it's okay for you to keep filial piety for three months, right? It's not a long time, and when you come to me, I'll find a way to find someone to inform you. ”

"Hmm. One word is certain".

"It's a deal! There will be a period later. ”

Pei Xiuxiu and Tie Zhu said goodbye to Rong Er and continued on their way.

Tie Zhu asked puzzledly, "Why is Rong Er, a woodcutter chopping wood, so good at cooking?" ”

Pei Xiuxiu explained: "That's what you don't know, I heard Rong Er mention that when his father was young, he was the imperial chef in the palace who cooked for the princes and mothers, and he was very good at cooking." Later, in a palace fight, innocently involved in the poisoning of a concubine, at first it was determined that the imperial chef was also Rong Er's father who was instructed to poison the concubine, and his father was put on death row and was devastated, only to be executed in a few days. Fortunately, it was later found out that the concubine died of the poison of poppy purple incense, and it happened that the new emperor ascended the throne and granted amnesty to the world, so he was expelled from the palace on all charges. Later, he lived incognito here, married a wife, had children, and had children for the rest of his life. ”

Tie Zhu nodded and said, "No wonder Rong Er's cooking skills are so good, it turns out that he has obtained the true inheritance of his father." If he stays here as a woodcutter for the rest of his life, wouldn't he be wasting his good cooking skills? ”

Pei Xiuxiu agreed: "Yes, Eiji is very talented in cooking, he has his own ideas and can innovate, what he is most afraid of is tireless exploration, interest is the best teacher." Youeiji is not afraid that the hotel will not be able to open. ”

Tie Zhu stopped and asked, "Xiuxiu, where did you get the ambition and money to open a hotel?" ”

"You don't have to worry about that, wait and see!"

The two of them went all the way west through several lively towns, and walked straight to Yaoxiang Town without stopping.

True to its name, Yaoxiang Town is famous for selling herbs wholesale.

The streets here are all open pharmacies, and there are many pharmacy shops in the town, and you can smell the strong aroma of herbs in the air from afar.

Perennial merchants gather in Yaoxiang Town, and herb merchants from all over the country come and go, shuttling back and forth in various pharmacies to see reselling medicinal materials.

Whether it is Ganoderma lucidum snow lotus or musk antlers, as long as you say the medicinal herbs that are named, you can find them here.

There are three most in Yaoxiang Town, the first pharmacy has the most, the second herb is the most complete, and the third doctor has the most.

The doctors who went out from Yaoxiang Town are all over the world, and they are famous all over the world for their superb medical skills and medical ethics and benevolence. Its most famous is Su Muze, the son of the medicine incense, and his imperial physician father Su Deren.

As soon as Pei Xiuxiu and the others appeared in the Yaoxiang Town Market, they caused passers-by to watch and discuss.

"Isn't she the miracle doctor?"

"yes, yes, why is she here again?"

"Is she here to marry Su Muze, the son of Yaoxiang?"

"I wonder if she still has any elixir? My grandfather also wants to buy a bottle. ”

……

Hearing all kinds of discussions, Pei Xiuxiu still smiled lightly and remained silent.

A guy from Baicao Pavilion stopped Pei Xiuxiu and said, "Miss Pei is really you?" Are you back? Are you here to find our son-in-law? ”

Pei Xiuxiu asked casually, "Is Gongzi Su at home?" ”

Although she didn't come to him this time, it was good to have an acquaintance who helped with more hands.

The man opened his mouth and said, "My son-in-law is not in the house, and he has returned to Beijing." ”

"Oh" Pei Xiuxiu nodded and smiled: "Anyway, I didn't come to him." ”

The two led the horse to an inn, opened two rooms, and lived.

Tiezhu asked, "What are we going to do next?" ”

Pei Xiuxiu dragged her chin and thought about it and said, "Let me think of a way, what kind of event should I hold?" ”

After that, there was no word for the night, and the two went back to their rooms to rest early.

The next day, Xiuxiu, who was still asleep, was awakened by a knock on the door.

Pei Xiuxiu was dressed slowly and neatly, and after opening the door, she saw the rich man Zhou standing at the door with a smile on his face.

"Miss Pei, don't come unharmed!"

Pei Xiuxiu saw that it was him, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be you, what are you doing early in the morning?" ”

Rich Lord Zhou said with a smile on his face: "I heard that you came to Yaoxiang Town again, so I came to see you in the morning." ”

"What the hell is going on? Say. ”

Zhou Caizhu smiled and said: "The bottle of Hearth's Warming Pill is really a miracle medicine, I want to ask if there is anything else?" I'd like to buy a few more bottles. ”

Pei Xiuxiu poured him a glass of water and said with a smile: "Please sit down, I won't tell you that I did bring a lot of Hearth's Warming Pill this time, but this time I don't want your silver taels, I plan to give you a few bottles for nothing." But is there a condition? ”

When the rich man heard this, he asked, "What conditions do you say?" ”

Pei Xiuxiu smiled and said, "First, help me find a talented showman." Second, I want to set up a banquet for the rich gentry of Yaoxiang Town, and I hope you will come forward to deal with this matter, do you think it? Thirdly, I heard that there is an annual medicinal incense conference in your medicinal herb town, and all the medicinal herb shop managers, doctors and medicinal herb wholesalers in the town will participate, right? It is said that outsiders are not allowed to participate, but I would like to ask for an admission ticket from you. ”

"No problem, it's a trivial matter. The first two things are easy to do, and as for the third one, it won't be difficult for me, so you can go in with the shopkeeper of our medicine store, Liu. ”

"Thank you!"

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say."
