Chapter Ninety-Five: Preemptive
Chapter Ninety-Five: Preemptive
"Shopkeeper Peng."
A deep male voice passed through the screen, and Ling Yuan, whose eyes had been falling on Gu Bainiang, saw that the little girl's figure was slightly stiff.
Peng Yizhen over there seemed to be a little flustered response, got up and returned the salute, I don't know where it hit, the chopsticks and plates made a mess.
Presumably Peng Yizhen was looking at Shen Anlin with a dead eye, a smile appeared on the corner of Gu Banniang's mouth, and the description of that day in the temple appeared in front of her again, her smile was closed, and her eyes were lowered.
There is not much talk over there, just like in memory, Shen Anlin doesn't like to talk, he speaks quickly and his sentences are short, and he just asks where Peng Yizhen is from, and he wants to buy this pharmacy to do it, Peng Yizhen said in detail that he did not hide it except that there was another master behind him.
After a few glasses of wine, Shen Anlin over there put forward a suggestion that Peng Yizhen should take the majority of the dividends, and did not hide the power of their family, implying that this was a happy thing.
Gu Bainiang sneered, this is indeed a good idea for everyone to be happy, but this time it is not for everyone to be happy.
Peng laughed a few times, of course refused, and left no room for refusal.
Shen Anlin was surprised, and after a moment of silence, he got up and said goodbye.
"This pharmacy is left by my mother, so I can't sell it."
Gu Banniang was slightly stunned when she heard this, he**? Deceased Zhao's? Then how can Shen's name be written? She frowned and thought about it, but she didn't have this impression in her memory, was it really fake?
Over there, Peng Yizhen also hurriedly got up, and spit out a sentence as if he had been holding back for a long time.
“.. Shen Gongzi, can you let me check the pulse..."
Gu Bainiang wanted to roll her eyes, this was what Peng Yizhen wanted to say most after meeting.
This sentence obviously surprised Shen Anlin as well, and after his footsteps stopped, he said thank you, opened the door and strode away.
"Eighteen Niang..."There was a moment of silence, and Peng Yizhen's somewhat sneering voice came.
"You go back first." Gu Bainiang said, hearing Peng leave in response.
"He won't sell." Lingyuan said, looked at Gu Eighteen Niang, a little worried, the money was thrown in vain......
"I'm going to steal the money back."
He gritted his teeth and stood up.
Gu Bainiang stretched out her palm, looked up at him and smiled, "Nonsense." ”
Her smile spread out in her eyes, this was a real smile, Ling Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and reached out to support her arm.
"He had to sell it, and there was no other way but to sell it to me." Gu Bainiang stood up, put on her cloak on one side, and said lightly, her voice was extremely determined.
It was already time for the main meal, and there were more small people running back and forth in the corridor to deliver wine and food, and as the door opened and closed, the sound of laughter and laughter came from all rooms.
Gu Bainiang and Ling Yuan walked one after the other.
"Uncle Peng wants to check his pulse?" Ling Yuan couldn't help but ask in a low voice curiously, and before the words fell, Gu Bainiang, who was walking in front of him, suddenly stopped.
Ling Yuan couldn't retract his momentum, hit her back, the quiet body fragrance wafted into his nose, and he panicked in his heart before he was about to stand away, and when he looked up, he saw a slender young man standing in front of him through his dark cloud-like sideburns.
The young man was about twenty, dressed in a dark blue round-necked robe, with a gray cloak in his hand, his chin was slightly raised, and his eyes shimmered on Gu Banniang.
This is Shen Anlin? Ling Yuan's gaze couldn't help but stay on him for a moment longer, and when he was empty, Gu Eighteen Niang walked away.
She didn't bow her head, just lowered her eyes slightly, put her hands in the cloak, and just met Shen Anlin's gaze, passed him calmly, walked through the long corridor, and turned down the stairs.
Shen Anlin retracted his gaze, this back is a little familiar, where have you seen it? His thick eyebrows furrowed slightly, and then he looked in the direction where Gu Bainiang came over, his brows furrowed even more, and he suddenly stretched out his hand to stop a young guy who came out of cleaning up the dishes.
"Which room did that young lady come from?" Shen Anlin asked.
The young man was stunned by the question, "Which young lady?" ”
Shen Anlin looked back, and naturally Gu Banniang was gone.
"About fourteen years old, so big..."He stretched out his hand and put it on his shoulder, "The big red wind fur cloak..." Thin and graceful.."
Before his words fell, the young man was already full of laughter, "You said that young lady, huh..." He took out his free hand and pointed to the private room behind him, "Apricot trouble second..."
Shen Anlin's eyes flashed, and he looked in the direction he was pointing, Xinghao second, that is, next door to Xinghao first, who he had just entered, it turned out that he had just noticed that there was another person in the house who was her?
Shen Anlin turned around, walked a few steps, and looked down on the fence on the third floor, and the girl had long been gone.
Who is she?
The carriage swayed for a long time, and Gu Bainiang didn't speak, looking at the swaying curtain in a daze.
In that life, he was afraid that until he died, he didn't look at himself squarely......
In that life, you drove me to the point where there was no way out.......
In this life, even if I don't hurt your life, I want you to taste this kind of feeling like being forced to no return.
"Go to Shunhetang." She stared slightly and said into the car.
When Ling Yuan heard this, he pulled the reins of the horse and turned the horse's head away.
Shunhetang, a young man who was bored and napping in a brazier, suddenly felt a shadow cover down, looked up, and saw two young people standing in front of him.
The woman had not yet taken off her cloak and hat, her whole face was covered, and she looked no more than fourteen or fifteen years old.
"Miss, the point?" He greeted with a habitual smile.
Gu Banniang took off her hat and smiled at the young man, "Can I meet your concoction master?" ”
The young man was stunned for a moment, and guessed and asked, "Miss is going to concoct medicinal materials?" His eyes fell on the young man behind the young lady, and he saw that he was indeed carrying a paper bag in his hand.
Gu Bainiang was gracious and did not elaborate.
"That's right, according to the rules, our family's master only concocts our family's medicine...", the young man said embarrassedly.
Ling Yuan threw away a string of money behind him.
The young man's eyes were quick to grab, and he didn't stumble, and his smiling eyes narrowed, "Miss ....., come with me..."
Passing through the door, a cluttered backyard comes into view.
"Miss, slow down, it's messy here.." The young man nodded and said as he kicked away a medicine box under his feet.
Gu Bainiang closed her eyes slightly, and the familiar arrangement was presented in her mind one by one, she had been here for three or four years at that time, and she could walk even with her eyes closed.....
"Be careful.." Lingyuan reached out and grabbed her arm.
saw that Gu Bainiang had stopped in front of the big tree, opened her eyes, and reached out to stroke the trunk.
This Tsubaki tree is still there, Gu Bainiang sighed a little, Shunhetang cut it when she was expanding the backyard concoction room, she reached out and patted it lightly.
"Master Gao, Master Gao," the young man shouted at the top of his voice.
A middle-aged man with a yellowish face and a slightly clumsy figure came out of the house, holding a medicine pot in his hand, dipped in water, and seemed to be scrubbing.
"Do?" He muffled.
"Master Gao, someone wants you to concoct medicinal materials." The young man smiled, and pointed to Gu Bainiang, who walked over slowly.
"Don't." Master Gao didn't raise his eyelids, but simply said, shook the medicine pot in his hand, grabbed the dry cloth on the side and wiped it.
The young man was embarrassed, "You guy, how can you talk to a guest...."
"I've quit my job, I'm leaving, it's your guest, not mine." Master Gao said in a muffled voice, still not raising his head.
The young man couldn't, and looked at Gu Shibanniang embarrassedly.
Gu Bainiang's face was a little excited, she took a few steps closer, stood in front of Master Gao, and her nose suddenly became a little sour.
It was this man who looked very difficult to get along with, who assisted her in supporting the precarious Shunhetang, perhaps because of the rare medicine book, but Gu Bainiang understood that he also somewhat pitied himself, a lonely and helpless person with the name of a young grandmother.
"If the girl in my family is here, she is as big as Grandma Lin........"
Master Gao felt that people approached, and he was very angry, so he raised his head and said impatiently: "If you don't do medicine, you don't do it, there are many medicine stores, and then you can find it...."
Halfway through his words, his voice lowered, and he looked at the young girl in front of him a little strangely, and her expression seemed to be very... Agitated...? There is quite a feeling of tears in the eyes of the fellow when he sees the fellow......
"Master Gao.." Gu Bainiang took a deep breath, bit her lower lip, and reached back, Ling Yuan hurriedly handed over a packet of medicine, "I'm sorry for you to help me take a look...."
Master Gao's face stiffened, and he didn't reach out to take it.
"Little brother," Ling Yuan suddenly said to the grinning young man on the side, "I'm sorry for you to make a pot of tea..."
"Okay." The young man was very happy, glanced at this God of Wealth, turned around and left, and couldn't help but look back before going out, this young man seemed to have a good face, dressed ordinarily, and looked like a family nurse, he immediately put aside this thought, the God of Wealth was very kind to him.
"This little lady, I'm about to quit my job, it's all other people's belongings here, I can't use it..."Master Gao's voice softened a little, explained, and stretched out his hand to point her in the direction, "....There are all medicine stores on this street, any one can concoct it...."
"Master Gao, I want to ask, I want to use ten aconitum at a time, you might concoct it for me?" Gu Banniang interrupted him and said with a smile.
Master Gao was stunned for a moment, and then sank his face, the aconitum is highly poisonous, and the general dosage of three taels is the maximum amount, this person opened his mouth with ten, which is clearly a joke.
He couldn't help but snort, "Little lady, is this the test for me?" I can't do it, so please be smart. ”
"If I tell you how to concoct it to detoxify and not affect the efficacy of the medicine, will you listen?" Gu Banniang smiled and shook the paper bag in her hand.
Master Gao snorted and looked at her.
"My surname is Gu," Gu Banniang restrained her smile and looked at him too, "My name is Shibaniang." ”
The news of Liu Gong's appearance has already spread all over these days, but everyone in the pharmaceutical industry knows that Master Gao has really changed color.
"You, are you Gu Niangzi?" He stammered, his face filled with excitement and disbelief.
"Yes," Gu Banniang nodded, "I'll tell you, aconite, soak it with children's feces, boil, add a little salt, and then cut four slices with a bamboo knife, wash the well water, change the water day by day, soak it for seven days, dry it and use it....."
As she said it sentence by sentence, Master Gao's face changed from surprise to panic.
Even the layman knew that this secret method meant that for a pharmacist, it was undoubtedly a treasure from heaven, and he only felt like a dream.
He had already heard of this Liu Gong's heir, and he heard that those big medicine stores sent invitations to worship and sent invitations were not seen, and it was even more impossible for him, a nameless and nameless concoction master wanted to see Master Zu, but he didn't expect her to stand in front of him, and also said the secret method of concocting aconitant, Master Gao only felt trembling all over, and hurriedly knelt down.
"Thank you, Master.," he said, kowtowing.
Gu Bainiang looked at him with a solemn and frightened expression, and couldn't help but take a deep breath, this scene was like she handed him the book in that life.
Although there is no book in this life, she has herself, the name of Liu Gong, Liu Gong's secret method, for Master Gao, the temptation is far greater than that of the Shen family's book.
"You need no more courtesy when you get up." Gu Banniang said with a smile.
"Master, do you want me to do it?" Master Gao stood up and asked respectfully.
The pharmacist is a craftsman, and although he concentrates on his skills, he is not ignorant of the world, and he knows that pie will not be lost in vain.
"You don't have to do it." Gu Bainiang looked at him and smiled, "You just have to do it." ”
After that, he handed him the aconitum in his hand, "You try it according to what I said, and see if it can be done." ”
Knowing the method, but it still depends on the actual operation, this is to examine yourself, Master Gao solemnly took it, and gave the salute again and again.
The guy rushed in with tea, and Gu Eighteen Niang turned around to leave.
"Miss, have a cup of tea.." He greeted him warmly.
Gu Bainiang smiled at him, said thank you, and didn't stay.
"What are you doing? Take him as an apprentice? Ling Yuan was very puzzled, and finally couldn't help asking.
"No... I just..."Gu Banniang smiled, and suddenly felt that she didn't know what to say, "It's just to try it first..."
"Get ahead of the curve?" Ling Yuan was even more puzzled.
Gu Bainiang looked at the plaque of Shunhetang again and lowered the curtain.
Although she can't let fate go her way, luckily she at least knows the general trajectory of fate, as well as the possible course, so that is actually enough.
robbed others of their way, leaving others with no way out, and fate could help me.
When Shen Anlin walked into Shunhe Hall, he happened to meet Master Gao who was carrying the burden on his back.
"Master Gao.." He hurriedly walked a few steps, "Please stay..."
Master Gao turned his head and saw that it was him, and couldn't help sighing, his eyes full of reluctance.
"Young master," he called, bowing down, "I was about to kowtow to you..."
As he spoke, he was about to kneel, but Shen Anlin stretched out his hand to support him.
"Master Gao, I know that my mother has punished you, you have been wronged..... the matter of the hangover pill has nothing to do with you..."Shen Anlin said in a deep voice, "I have already obtained my mother's consent to take over Shunhetang in person..."
Master Gao was stunned when he heard this, and a little surprise appeared on his face, "Young Master, you..."
"I hope Master Gao will help me." Shen Anlin said, taking out a book from his arms, "This is the ..... I gave you."
Master Gao glanced at the cover, his face trembled, his eyes flashed with surprise and longing, and he couldn't help but stretch out his rough hand and tremble.....
"Master Gao." Shen Anlin seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said solemnly, "I will give you this book, so I can make the best use of it, you can accept it." ”
Master Gao's hand stroked the book twice, but he finally withdrew his hand.
"Young master..."He knelt down and kowtowed, but there was a bit of determination in his voice, ".. Actually, since my wife is away, I should have left..."
Shen Anlin's body stiffened.
"Young Master, you... Take care...."Master Gao sighed and walked slowly with his head down.
Shen Anlin's hand let go, the book fell to the ground, and the wind blew loudly, he clenched his hand tightly, and his green tendons skyrocketed.
