Qu Xiaomo took a look at the prescriptions given by the old doctor, they were all herbs she didn't know, took the medicine bag and put it away, then asked for the consultation fee, and said, "I don't know how much silver these medicinal materials plus the doctor's visit fee are?" ”

Although the doctor was invited by the uncle, he naturally couldn't let him out of the consultation money, and when he scrubbed the body of Jin Zhen yesterday, he put away all the precious things on his body, and the gold crown and jade pendant and the like must be exchanged for a lot of silver.

The old doctor was not polite when he asked about the consultation, and said directly: "These detoxification medicine bags plus two bottles of Jinchuang medicine are a total of five taels of silver, and you will be charged one tael for the outpatient fee, and the medicine bag can be bought for only one tael of silver, but these two bottles of gold sore medicine are more expensive." ”

Although Qu Xiaomo also felt that it was very expensive, he still gritted his teeth and took out six taels of silver prepared from his sleeve, and handed it to the old doctor, fortunately, he had forty taels of all his belongings, but the money for the medicine and the medical fee had already spent eight taels in addition to the two taels of last night's accommodation, and the silver spent in the future had to be carefully calculated, and when the gold sting on the bed was ready, he would definitely be scolded fiercely, hum!

personally sent the old doctor out of the door, and when she returned, the aunt had already washed out the medicine jar, and after getting along this morning, Qu Xiaomo also saw clearly that this aunt was greedy for a little money, and there was nothing bad about it, and she accepted her two taels of silver.

Taking the medicine jar, Qu Xiaomo took out the two packets of medicine given by the old doctor, put one packet into the jar, added water and boiled it, and when he looked at the fire, he thought about how to settle down in the past few months.

Now that he has thirty-two taels of silver, it is unrealistic to say that it is unrealistic to find an inn to live in the county seat, and it is risky, which is safer than in this small village.

When lunch was ready, the uncle came out and called for dinner on the table, and on the table was a simple basket of steamed buns and a pot of porridge, as well as a plate of wild vegetables fried and pickles that he had eaten last night.

Half a bowl of porridge was eaten, and the uncle took a steamed bun and gnawed it, and said: "Young man, listen to the doctor's words, your shopkeeper is afraid that he won't be able to get up for a while, so he will live here for a while, and when you are better, you are making plans." ”

As soon as these words came out, the aunt immediately frowned, and said loudly: "It's okay to live here, but you have to collect one tael of silver every month, and we can count your food and drink in one tael of silver, but the one lying inside has to eat meat porridge and golden soup medicine, which we can't afford, you have to figure out your own way." ”

"It's nature, it's nature." Qu Xiaomo held the porridge bowl with a flattering smile on his face, and said, "I will find a way to pay for the medicine and eat and drink of the shopkeeper." ”

Seeing that she was very good at talking, the aunt glanced at her and didn't say anything, one tael of silver a month has already earned a lot, and the countrymen rely on self-sufficiency, and this food and drink are all these common things on the table, and they don't need a few pennies.

The uncle glanced at his daughter-in-law, sighed, and said: "Although our village is small, there are still two or three long-tongued women, and you and your shopkeeper are afraid that they will attract discussion when they appear rashly in the village, and when the time comes, I am afraid that it will cause trouble when it goes out. ”

"That's a good idea." Without waiting for Qu Xiaomo to respond, the aunt looked her up and down with those thin eyes, and said with a smile: "According to me, you young man was born with the appearance of a girl's family, so he pretended to be my cousin's daughter who came out of five clothes, she is also married to a businessman, and she has not been in contact for one hundred and eighty years, and no one will see you and your shopkeeper pretending to be husband and wife." ”

As soon as the words fell, the uncle frowned and reprimanded: "You woman, he is a dignified man, why is he pretending to be a woman?" How will you behave after you say it? ”

Qu Xiaomo smiled embarrassedly, she wanted to refuse, but when she remembered the small breasts that had been wrapped all day, her eyes rolled, and she said: "Now is also an extraordinary time, I can't hide it, I and the shopkeeper were chased and killed by the mountain bandits along the way and fell off the cliff, and we walked for a long time to get here. ”

"So be it! After dinner, my aunt will find you two sets of clothes. ”

"Thank you, auntie, uncle."

"In the future, I will call Aunt Fang, although my husband's family name."

"Okay, Aunt Fang, uncle, my name is Qu Xiaomo, you can call me Xiao Mo."

His daughter-in-law and son have decided like this, and Fang Laohan also felt that although the child in front of him was just a subordinate, he was well-behaved and polite, so he nodded and admitted it.

After lunch, Qu Xiaomo took two sets of clothes and took one set to change into her body while Jin Yu was not awake, and while she was changing clothes, Aunt Fang pulled Fang Laohan to whisper in her room.

"Old man, that young man just said that they were chased and killed by mountain bandits, so will those people find here? We're not going to get in trouble if we take them in. Aunt Fang pulled Old Man Fang with some concern and asked.

"Why didn't you worry about this when you cashiered last night?" Fang Laohan knocked twice on the foot of the bed with a cigarette stick in his hand, glared at her

"It's not like I didn't ask clearly, besides, two taels of silver, we can't earn this amount in the sun for a few months!"

Fang Laohan got up and put the cigarette stick in his waist, and said: "Don't worry, I'm afraid these two people won't be here for long, and they will definitely not be ordinary people if they can escape from the hands of the mountain bandits, you look at the shopkeeper lying on the bed, such an immortal-like character can't be as simple as a businessman, and the sword beside him, look at it is an extraordinary thing, let's take a look first, after all, it is also a human life!" But you can keep your mouth shut a little when you're chatting with the people in the village, don't you hear me? ”

"I know, I know." Aunt Fang, who heard her husband say this, was relieved, and nodded again and again when she heard his explanation.

Seeing that his wife really listened, Fang Laohan walked out of the room with his hands behind his back.

Qu Xiaomo, who had changed his clothes, was already squatting by the stove burning the medicine jar to watch the fire, wearing a gray long coat, a skirt of the same color, and a belt around his waist, the chest that was originally wrapped in a chest cloth was slightly curvacated at the moment, and his hair was fixed with a slightly smooth branch with the skin removed, and with the already beautiful face, she was a beautiful girl of fifteen years old.

Fang Laohan looked at her appearance, took out a cigarette stick, smoked, and said to her with a smile: "She really looks like a girl's family, even more beautiful than Juan'er in our village." ”

Aunt Fang also pulled the curtain out, and saw that Qu Xiaomo's eyes were also full of surprise, and said, "How can Juan'er's tall girl's appearance be compared!" If this face is taken out of the village, I am afraid that many handsome young men will be worried. ”

Qu Xiaomo got up a little embarrassed and smiled: "Auntie and uncle, don't cancel Xiao Mo." ”

A big man pretending to be a girl would have damaged his face, and the two teased her and said that they were embarrassed to see her, so they also opened the topic.

The farmer naturally had to go to the field during the day, and Fang Laohan took a hoe to work in the field after resting for a while after lunch, while Aunt Fang stayed at home to do housework.

After the medicine was boiled, Qu Xiaomo poured it out, waited for a while to cool down and fed the golden sting, and when he went out, he saw Aunt Fang feeding the chickens, and chatted with her when he was interested.

"Auntie, what is this village called, and how many families are there?"

Aunt Fang took the chicken food box and glanced back at her, although she loves money and is greedy for money, but she is still a good person, not as bitter and mean as the few women in the village, this Qu Xiaomo master and servant also paid a considerable amount of silver for borrowing, so naturally she would not put on a long face, so she smiled and said: "This is called Fenglai Village, but forty or fifty households, you are from elsewhere, right?" ”

Qu Xiaomo didn't hide it, and said with a smile: "We are from Jiazhou, and we originally followed the big shopkeeper to the west to buy goods, but we didn't know that we met mountain bandits on the road, and we lost our way when we fled, so we came here." ”

"Jiazhou! That's far away from here, this is Ning County, which belongs to Qingzhou. ”

As he spoke, he put down the chicken food box in his hand, clapped his hands and turned his head to look at her and said, "I'll take you to the county seat tomorrow, so as not to know the way, and in the future, you will have to go to the county to buy the medicine in the shopkeeper yourself." ”

"Thank you, auntie."

Qu Xiaomo habitually bent down and bowed his hand, and Aunt Fang looked at it and smiled: "You are not suitable for such a salute in women's clothes, and you can't go out like this." ”

Qu Xiaomo touched the hair hanging down from his cheeks with a little embarrassment, smiled and learned the posture of the maid he saw in the Jin Mansion, and did it to Aunt Fang, and then saw her shake her head and said: "This is the countryside, where can I use the rules of the maids of big families, just say thank you, the more troublesome it is, the more suspicious it is." ”

Qu Xiaomo thought deeply when he heard this, and said with a smile: "What my aunt said is true!" ”

After chatting a few more words, she went back to the house to see if the medicine was cold, and as soon as she opened the door and lifted the curtain, she saw that the person on the bed who had closed his eyes was looking at her with his black eyes open, which made her heart tremble, and the smile on her face froze, and the heartiness that had just been outside suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Thinking of the women's clothes he was wearing at the moment, Qu Xiaomo hurriedly walked in, licked his face near the window and smiled: "The big shopkeeper, you are awake!" ”

Saying that, he pointed to the women's clothes on his body, and said, "This is Aunt Fang's idea, I am more feminine, let's pretend to be the daughter and wife of her distant cousin to avoid those mountain bandits." ”

The golden sting on the bed stared at her face for a long time, staring at her chest in a daze, her eyes were full of shock, and the frozen twin peaks were slightly wrinkled, with a hint of entanglement and disbelief.

Qu Xiaomo followed his gaze, hurriedly hugged his chest with both hands, the tips of his ears were a little hot, and hurriedly opened his mouth to explain: "This is a pad, there is no breast, it looks like a woman!" ”

Blocked by her arm, Jin Yu retracted his gaze and asked in a dry voice, "What is this place?" What about those people? ”

After speaking, he struggled to get up, but he felt that he was weak, and the wound on his back was also painful because of his movements, and he couldn't help but hum, and then he remembered that he was shot by the black-clothed man's sleeve arrow, and then fought with the last trace of strength to hug the falling Qu Xiaomo, and finally the two fell down the mountain together, and then they had no memory.
