Just looking at the situation in this medicine basket, it can be inferred that Changsheng must have eaten a lot of closed-door soup today. Otherwise, how could it have been running all day before selling so little.

However, it doesn't make sense, some of the herbs she led Granny Su to pick are all often used in spring, how can they not be sold?

"Changsheng, what's the matter with you, it took a whole day to sell so little?" Granny Su scolded in a disapproving voice, sounding a little anxious, but in fact, she was also afraid that Xiao Ling'er would be disappointed, and it was rare for them to help her, for fear that Changsheng would mess up like this.

However, Xiao Ling'er looked much calmer, and she helped take Changsheng's medicine basket, "It's okay mother-in-law, Changsheng has also been running for a day, let's go in and drink a glass of water and talk slowly." ”

"Sister Ling'er......" Changsheng followed behind her aggrievedly, and as soon as he entered the room and took the water handed over by Xiao Ling'er, he suddenly raised his head and drank several sips, "I'm sorry, Sister Ling'er, I swore to you yesterday that it would be sold out, but I didn't expect it to be sold out so much." ”

"It's okay, you talk slowly, what the hell is going on?" Xiao Ling'er comforted Changsheng, she knew that since Changsheng had agreed, she would definitely sell it with all her heart, so there should be some reason why they didn't handle it well if it hadn't been sold yet.

Sure enough, Changsheng pursed his lips with an unhappy expression, "I ran all over the pharmacies in several nearby towns, and they all needed these herbs, but they all said that they didn't want this kind of original products, they had to be concocted and processed, and those would be useful." ”

"To be concocted?"

"Hmm." Changsheng nodded, "It is said that these original products take up a lot of space, and it is labor-intensive to deal with, so it is more convenient to collect those medicines that have been processed after processing, and now those pharmacies are like this." Only a few pharmacies have bought some of the bones and skins, and the money is all here,"

"I see." Xiao Ling'er understood, why didn't she think of this stubble in the first place.

Also, the medicine shops in this town can have a medicine boy, most of them are from their own families, and they want to consult and get medicines, how can they have so much effort to concoct herbs, so naturally it will be better to buy those processed medicines.

She thought, stretched out her hand and rubbed it on Changsheng's aggrieved face, and there were some baby fat faces that had not grown, and it was very comfortable to rub, "Okay, it's my fault, I didn't expect that the herbs should be concocted before they are sold, and I can't blame you if I can't sell them." ”

What's more, it seems that just by selling this bit of bone skin, Changsheng is estimated to have run a lot of ways.

"Ling'er, is it troublesome to concoct herbs?" Granny Su prepared some dry food and brought it over, sat aside as well, and asked.

"Hmm......" Xiao Ling'er thought about it carefully, "This one is also divided into types, and some will be more troublesome, but the treatment of these herbs in our hands is quite simple." It's okay, I'll concoct some and sell them then. Moreover, the purchased price of the processed drug should be higher than that of the original product. ”

Xiao Ling'er is very open-minded, and business always has to conform to the market trend.

They now have a lot of herbs in their hands, but after processing, there is actually not much left, "Mother-in-law, the money from selling these earth bone skins should be enough for us to eat for a few days, these times you take Changsheng to continue to collect some herbs according to what I said today, I will concoct and deal with these things in my hands, and we will divide the labor." ”

"Okay!"

With a new life, the momentum of immortality has come up a lot. There were always only two people in the yard, him and his mother-in-law, and suddenly felt that Sister Ling was here, and life had become different.

Like, it's a lot more interesting.

Now they have a lot of Mianyin Chen Di bone skin and clover in their hands, but fortunately, these methods are not too difficult, and Xiao Ling'er is also familiar with them.

She started to act early in the morning, Mian Yinchen removed impurities and old stems, and washed the skin of the bones and peeled off the root bark...... They have done a lot of these jobs when they went to the countryside for internships, and naturally they are also handy to do now.

For a few days, Xiao Ling'er, who made her life look like the world was turned upside down, felt a lot quieter all of a sudden, Changsheng and her mother-in-law went up the mountain to collect medicines, and she took advantage of the beautiful and sunny days to bask in the herbs in the yard.

Thinking about exchanging these medicines they worked so hard to collect for silver taels really made her much more comfortable than escaping the bad things of the Xiao family and the Mei family.

It's just that for a while, Granny Su occasionally calls the wrong "auntie", which will also make her suddenly remember that she still has a nominal husband lying in the county, and I don't know if he is awake or can't be saved. She always felt that this so-called marriage contract was still like such a cannon battle, and she never knew when the fuse would be ignited.

But what she didn't expect was that at this time, the Mei family's compound was already in chaos.

The maids ran towards the eldest young master's room with all kinds of things one after another, and after a while, there was a rush of footsteps outside the courtyard, and the old lady of the Mei family was also helped by Mrs. Mei and hurried over.

Although the Mei family is one of the largest households in the county, it is far less prosperous than the ordinary large households.

However, Mrs. Mei Zhou Xiuning is still dedicated to the Buddha, since Master Mei left, she can stay in the ancestral hall for nine out of ten days, and she doesn't care about any family affairs, the old lady of the Mei family is very clever and majestic, and a woman manages the Mei family and the Mei family's property in an orderly manner. But in the end, when I am old, I have to walk with crutches, and many times it is difficult to take care of all aspects.

The Mei family's huge family property is waiting for a successor, but Mei Chengan, the favorite eldest grandson of the Mei family, is sick and sick.

Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and this is indeed true.

The maid in Mei Cheng'an's room saw that the two masters were coming, and hurriedly stepped forward, where can the old lady of the Mei family care about what to salute or not, she opened her mouth and asked, even her voice trembled a little, "Cheng'an, are you awake?" ”

The maid didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly replied, "Wake up!" The doctor also came, and just as he was watching, the eldest young master had broken through the palace of Hades. ”

"It's really a blessing from God, Cheng'an finally woke up." Zhou Xiulan folded her hands and breathed a sigh of relief, and helped the old lady into the house tightly.

In that room, who had already sat up on the bed and leaned slightly on the edge of the bed, was not her favorite grandson. Although his face was still pale, he finally opened his eyes.

The doctor sitting on the side got up, "Old lady, the eldest son's wind and cold have faded, and his pulse has stabilized a lot. ”

"That's good, butler, lead the doctor to get the silver." Zhou Xiuning commanded, "Mother-in-law, it's time for you to put your mind at ease, tomorrow I will go to the temple to make a vow, and the Bodhisattva will bless Cheng'an." ”

"You, if you can put a little more of your mind on Cheng'an, it won't be like this." The old lady scolded lightly, and walked a few steps in front of her grandson.

The people around him were impatient, but Mei Cheng'an looked faint, as if the foot he stepped into the Hades Hall was just a shallow sleep. He took a sip of the water handed by the maid on the side, "It worries my grandmother and mother." ”

"Say anything, it's okay if you're fine." The old lady touched her chest, "Cheng'an, you must take care of your body, how can grandmother afford such a fright." ”

"My grandson remembered." Mei Chengan tapped his chin, but the next sentence was to look at the personal person on the side, "Wen Yan, what about the Linxian account book that I was dealing with before I fell asleep?" ”

"The eldest young master, the second young master came yesterday and said that the account book matter was urgent, and he took it to deal with it for you."

"Cheng'an." Zhou Xiulan frowned slightly, "You just woke up, since your brother Yongxin wants to share these things for you, you might as well take care of your body first." ”

"No need, Wen Yan, get it quickly, I'll handle it myself." Mei Chengan coughed lightly, but it was just a few short words, as if he had exhausted a lot of his strength, and closed his eyes slightly as if he wanted to rest for a while.

However, since you are awake, you should do something to do when you wake up.

……

Xiao Ling'er naturally didn't know anything about the Mei family, but she found that something was really wrong with staying at home for a few days.

This Anding village is not small to say small, but it is really not big to say that it is big, so many households, as soon as there is something new, it will be spread all at once.

Originally, she was busy going up the mountain with Granny Su to collect medicine some time ago, but she hadn't noticed that in the past few days, staying at home to concoct herbs, Xiao Ling'er found that at the door of her house, she would always poke her head over from time to time and pretend to take a look casually, and one of them walked in directly.

She was a woman in her thirties, wearing her hair in a bun, and although she was wearing a very ordinary fabric, the color was bright, and it looked a little out of place with the basket she carried on her back for farm work. The appearance is also upright, but the facial features are a little slender, and the chin is pointed, which will give people a feeling of sharp teeth and sharp mouth at first glance.

After all, it was a person from the village, Xiao Ling'er walked a few steps to meet him.

The man didn't see any restraint at all, he walked into the courtyard and looked around, and his eyes fell on Xiao Ling'er all of a sudden, "You, you are the little lady newly married by the eldest young master of the Mei family?" ”

Xiao Ling'er nodded, "My name is Xiao Ling'er, and my aunt just calls me Ling'er." ”

"Miss Ling'er?" The person who came also directly reported his name, "I am also from Anding Village, I live not far away, my name is Liang Qiulan, you look about the same age as my son, just call me Aunt Qiu." ”

As she spoke, her eyes looked up and down on Xiao Ling'er again, and she sighed to herself, "Hey, it's a pity, such a big girl is actually married to the sick son of the Mei family." I don't know what your parents think, if I have a daughter as big as you, I am reluctant to marry her so confused. Haha, isn't this a rush to force you to be a widow! ”
