Shopkeeper Li was very happy when he saw Lu Man coming. She was introduced to Dr. Chen, Dr. He, Master Qin, Master Qin, Master Qin, and Li Tent.

Lu Man knew that the two doctors, Chen and He, and Master Qin had served He Huang before, and this time he did not hesitate to come to Tongrentang. So they were courteous, in addition to Master Qin and Li Tent, Lu Man gave the other people a junior gift, said some words of thanks, and let Xing'er reward each of them with twenty taels of silver.

Shopkeeper Li also bought two subordinates, Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen, who are responsible for the doorman, cleaning, cooking and other matters of Tongrentang. They are a husband and wife, both in their thirties. It is said that the two children were born sick, and in order to cure the children, they caused a lot of famine, and after the children died, they sold themselves to pay off their debts. They are considered Lu Man's minions, and Shopkeeper Li also handed over the slave deed to Lu Man.

Lu Man saw that Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen looked a little similar, and eighty percent of them were cousins, so the children born were unhealthy. He also asked Xing'er to reward each of them with four silver bills.

Master Qin heard that the hanging bell flower has this miraculous effect, which is very novel. He took the two potted plants and studied them for a long time, saying that his family has an ancestral medicine method that can remove some toxins from plants, but he doesn't know if he can remove the toxins in the bell flowers.

Lu Man couldn't help but like it after hearing it, he was really a master in the people. She smiled, "The bell flower is also a plant, so it should work." If you can really remove some of the toxins, and then add some drugs to inhibit toxins in the medicine, it will be much safer to take the bell flower. ”

Master Qin asked Master Qin to take the bell flower to the pharmacy. Although it is not yet officially open, the work of the pharmaceutical industry has already begun. Shopkeeper Li and the ancestors of the Qin family both had channels to buy medicines, they bought a lot of medicines and piled them up in the warehouse, and began to concoct medicinal materials. As soon as Tong Ren Tang opened, it was immediately able to pick up and sell medicines.

Lu Man asked him as soon as possible, she was in a hurry. Moreover, it is best to make a part of the powder, because if the heart failure patient has an acute attack, he can not wait to boil the medicine.

After that, I asked the two doctors, Chen and He, if there was any medicine for hanging bell flowers. The two doctors, Chen and He, only know how to detoxify with mung bean soup and bitter ginseng soup, and they don't know that they specialize in this kind of good medicine.

Lu Man knew this result, but he was still disappointed. She visited Tong Ren Tang again, which was almost decorated, but the office furniture such as cabinets and tables had not yet been completed, and several carpenters were busy.

Her room has been completely renovated and even furnished. She sat in the room for a while, saw that Shopkeeper Li seemed to have something to say, and said with a smile, "If Uncle Li has anything to say, please say it directly." ”

Shopkeeper Li's face turned a little red, and he said, "I just want to ask, is there any news from Senior Sister?" ”

Lu Man sighed, "I'm also in a hurry, and the people who went to Shuzhong didn't have a letter." And he said, "Wait a little longer, if there is no news in the next year, I will send someone to find it." ”

As he was talking, Uncle Chen came to pay his respects, "Third grandmother, there is a Mrs. Lu who said that she is your eldest uncle......

Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Lu's voice had already come in, "Man girl, it's harder to see you now than to see the lady in the palace." ”

As she spoke, Mrs. Lu squeezed into the house from Uncle Chen's side.

Lu Man's face sank, she was very impatient to deal with the Lu family, even if it was face-saving. It is already difficult to settle the river water with their well water, and these people are still sticking it up shamelessly.

Uncle Chen saw Lu Man with a sinking face, his face was red to the back of his ears, and he knew that he had done something wrong.

Shopkeeper Li pulled him out and whispered, "In the future, the Lu family, no matter who it is, will say that the third grandmother is not there." That family is not authentic, bad. ”

Uncle Chen hurriedly bowed down and agreed.

As soon as Mrs. Lu sat down on the chair, she took out her handkerchief and cried, and said, "Manya, auntie, even if I beg you, you can do it, busy with your uncle." Because of the relationship between your grandfather, he is still a petty official from the seventh grade, originally Lord Huang said that there was a good shortage for him, but why did he give it to others. The Huang family treated us with great courtesy before, but for some reason, their faces have changed now......"

Lu Man said, "Big lady, you are going to cause trouble when you say this, not only to the eldest lord, but also to Lord Huang." At that time, the eldest lord may even be gone from this petty official from the seventh grade. Besides, if I didn't have my mother's money to go to the door, and if my grandfather didn't go around begging for help, Master Lu wouldn't even be able to get this petty official from the seventh grade. What about the jinshi, there are too many jinshi who are county officials and masters in remote mountainous areas, and some don't even have a real shortage. Master Lu lived in a big mansion in the capital in front of the Beijing official, and after so many years of rich life, not only did he not appreciate my mother and my grandfather, but also complained. ”

Mrs. Lu hurriedly took off the veil and said, "Okay, okay, it's the eldest aunt who said the wrong thing." Man girl, I heard that you are very familiar with Master Huang's daughter, Grandma Min Si, can you help your uncle say good things? Your uncle's status is high, your status is also high, and we are your mother's family in the end. ”

Lu Man sneered, "My relationship with Sister Huang is indeed very good, and I also hope that the eldest master can soar into the sky and become a master of several products or something." However, being an official also has to talk about ability. He was not promoted, perhaps because his ability was not enough. Sister Huang and I are women, and we don't have the ability to meddle in the affairs of officialdom, let alone seek benefits for the eldest master. ”

After finishing speaking, he got up and said to Lu Ling, "Call the eighth master and the flag chief, it's late, it's time to go back." ”

Mrs. Lu didn't dare to go to the Eldest Princess's Mansion, so she kept sending people to pay attention to Tongrentang, and as soon as Lu Man came, she would quickly send her a letter. When she got the letter today, she hurried over in a carriage, of course she didn't want to let Lu Man go lightly.

She hurriedly stepped forward to pull Lu Man's sleeve, but was blocked by Xing'er and said, "Mrs. Lu, if the guards outside know that someone wants to offend my third grandmother, they will beat someone." ”

Mrs. Lu retracted her hand and begged again, "Second aunt and grandmother, I beg you." It was Xiao Chen's who treated you harshly before, Baoqin stole the deed, and my mother-in-law helped the two of them, and your uncle and I can't do it......"

Lu Man said, "Big lady, don't embarrass me. I really can't help you. Then he walked out with his feet up.

She snorted coldly in her heart, she was really an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf, thinking that it was the He family who spent the money and He Huang helped, so she helped Lu Fangming find an official in Tongzheng. They didn't say anything about helping the unlucky He, but they also complained that He Huang had delayed his career. Eating He's and using He's, but watching Xiao Lu Man being bullied......

Mrs. Lu's voice came from behind, "Grandma, the old lady asked me to ask you, that day, the eldest princess's mansion invited all the in-laws, why didn't you invite the Lu family?" The eldest princess's mansion doesn't take your mother's family in her eyes, and your aunt's face is not good-looking. ”
