Chapter 67: Sentimentality

This was a joke for the three men, who shook their heads and smiled, and asked no more.

The guy saw that they were not interested, and he was very bored, so he didn't say much, but carried the pot to another table, and joined the conversation of the group, and talked enthusiastically.

"Girl." The older man picked up the teacup and took a bite slowly, "Today's women are so powerful." ”

A younger one tossed a few salted beans into his mouth, and listened to it just laughing, and then suddenly.

"Girl," he muttered, frowning.

"Miss the girl?" A person next to him joked, "Haven't you been squeezed dry by those girls in the past few days?" ”

"Go." The young man threw the salted beans in his hand to him, looked at the old man and said, "Uncle, have you heard, Dongping's Wu Lao Pang gang planted it." ”

The older man nodded, his face very pleasant.

"I heard that it was planted in the hands of a little girl," the young man said slowly.

The older man's face was slightly surprised, and he immediately became solemn.

By this time it was already dark, and it had been nearly an hour and a half since the girl had taken the ginseng in, and the people around the courtyard had gradually dispersed impatiently, only the woman sat by the door with the child in her arms, staring at Liu Meibao's lighted window in a daze.

"Has anyone died for so long?" The shopkeeper was also very concerned about this matter, but he was more concerned about the man lying in the room, and the guests who lived in the shop were making a fuss, saying that there were dead people in the house, and they were clamoring to check out and return the money.

"Go and ask.." The shopkeeper was so troubled that he said to a fellow, "I can't save it..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the woman with the child rushing out. At the same time, the door of Liu Meibao's house opened.

"Let's let, let's go." Zhou Liangyu flew downstairs with the ginseng in his hand, and shouted, "Borrow a pot to fry the medicine..."

Hearing his words, everyone was in an uproar, which means that it can be used.

"Let me see, let me see." Many people couldn't help but run forward and stop Zhou Liangyu from looking at the ginseng in his hand.

This is a two-section reed mountain ginseng, which is in good shape, and those who are close can clearly see that there is no mildew on it, and it is a normal ginseng.

"It's really gone!"

The crowd was in an uproar.

"I'll see." A person simply reached out and took the ginseng from Zhou Liangyu's hand. Take a closer look at the dead wind lamps hanging in the yard.

"What are you doing?" Zhou Liangyu was very annoyed when he was suddenly taken away from the ginseng, and raised his eyes to see that this was a man of about fifty, dressed as a foot trader, "People are waiting for help!" ”

Zhou Liangyu snatched it back. Greeted by the shopkeeper, he rushed to the kitchen.

The people in the courtyard gathered together in twos and threes, and the talk became more lively.

"Uncle, how's it going?" Neither of them squeezed in front of them, and they didn't see the ginseng clearly. At this time, I came over and asked hurriedly.

The older man nodded, "Yes, it's as good as ever." ”

The two looked at each other in great surprise.

"I don't know how the medicine works...", everyone else in the courtyard was speculating about this. They all stood and waited to see the results.

The three men withdrew as the crowd gathered, seemingly unconcerned about how effective the medicine was.

"I thought it was just scraping water with a knife and brushing the mold. I didn't expect it to be as good as ever..."The older man muttered, "Not only is it as good as ever, it should be said that the appearance is better, and the general medicine store will only accept it without hesitation when it sees it..."

Hearing him say this, the other two were very surprised, they didn't expect to give such a high evaluation.

"Wu Laopang's ejiao was planted in her hands?" The older man seemed to think of something, and suddenly asked.

"I only heard that it was a little girl, but as for what the person looks like, we don't know." The young man replied.

As he spoke, he felt a commotion in the crowd, and they all said that the girl had come down. They looked up too, and saw an old man walking slowly downstairs, followed by a thin girl with his head down. The lights flickered and I couldn't see clearly.

Zhou Liangyu quickly boiled the single ginseng soup, and Song Langzhong helped Shi Needle. And he borrowed a beak pot and poured it into the man.

"Let's see if we can survive tonight." He said.

The woman knelt on her knees with the child in her arms and wept in thanks.

"Although the mold did not hurt the inside, the medicinal effect is definitely not as good as when it is intact, so this single ginseng soup can only be fried with only two taels..."Liu Meibao said to her.

And the woman cared about this, and prostrated to her, and thanked her.

The shopkeeper saw that they were pitiful, and made a simple meal be brought to them, and the woman wept so much that she could not speak, but she kowtowed and thanked these kind people.

With this incident, the three of them lost interest, they had a hasty meal, and it was late to see that it was getting late, so they simply rested early and went to see Wang Liuqi tomorrow.

Song Langzhong looked at Liu Meibao and stopped talking.

"What does Uncle want to ask?" Liu Meibao said with a smile.

"Can you get those moldy medicinal methods?" Song Langzhong hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but ask in a low voice of curiosity.

In the room, watching Liu Meibao spray the ginseng with simple vinegar, turn it over, and then wrap it tightly with a cloth, which in his eyes the ginseng that could not be used at all changed greatly after an hour, which was too beyond his imagination.

There are a lot of moldy and spoiled medicines in the pharmacy every year, and it would be great if this method could be solved.

"No, different medicines have different methods, which are roughly divided into scrubbing and vinegar washing.." Liu Meibao smiled, looked at Song Langzhong's excited eyes again, understood what he was thinking, and smiled bitterly, "This, but it doesn't work." ”

"What's not going to work?" Song Langzhong didn't understand and asked again.

"If it's bad, it's bad, this is a symptom but not a cure, the medicinal materials are still mainly anti-mildew, and mildew removal is sometimes ... It's just that Eun redeems a little bit... If it weren't for the fact that the woman was too pitiful, there was really nothing she could do. Liu Meibao shook her head and said vaguely.

"That is to say, the medicine is actually still broken, and the effect of the medicine is not as good as before." Song Langzhong sighed and understood.

Liu Meibao nodded, "Fortunately, when I picked it up, I saw that her ginseng had not yet softened, and she could see the primary color by scraping the mold spots with her fingernails, and it was still edible, so I will deal with it." If it is soft or mildew seeps in, then there is no way, it must not be eaten, otherwise it is not a life-saving but a life-threatening one. ”

Song Langzhong nodded, understood, and stopped asking, so they each rested and didn't mention it.

Because of the memorability of the ginseng soup, Liu Meibao didn't sleep well all night, got up before dawn, and was about to go downstairs, when a guy saw her, raised his hand and grinned.

"Girl. Alright, alright. He said.

"Really?" Liu Meibao knew what he said, and was very happy, so she quickened her pace and went downstairs.

Song Langzhong was already there, talking to the woman.

"I took this medicine first. After eating, I will scrape together the money to find a doctor to see..."Song Langzhong said in a low voice, while handing her a prescription and a packet of medicine.

The woman wept and thanked him, and Song Langzhong sighed. Returning the favor and walking away.

"How?" Liu Meibao followed him back and asked in a low voice.

"If you can take medicine well, you will raise it for a while, no problem. But—" Song Langzhong whispered, looking back at the woman.

The woman holds the child in her hands. Kneeling on the ground, he slowly wept.

There is no money for living in the hotel, even if you take the medicine, where can you live?

In this cold winter, the beggars who froze to death on the streets every day could not be lifted.

Liu Meibao also sighed, her mood was a little depressed, she wanted to do something but she was powerless, if she couldn't make any more money, and if she encountered an accident like illness, their family would not be able to survive, and would it be the fate of living on the street at that time? I shuddered.

Because of this incident, Liu Meibao's mood was a little low. After eating slowly, Song Langzhong was kind to the free clinic last night, and a few unwell people in the inn asked him for a consultation.

Song Langzhong was anxious to take Liu Meibao to Wang Liuqi's medicine store. I'm sorry to shirk it.

"Don't worry, it's still early. A lot of shops haven't opened yet. Liu Meibao said hurriedly.

Song Langzhong paid for the woman to buy medicine, and Liu Meibao was willing to let him be a good person and repay him and earn the money back.

"I saw a persimmon seller at the door, so I went to buy some for my aunt and brought them back." Liu Meibao said, remembering the shop she saw at random in the front hall last night.

"The persimmons in Hezhong Province are very famous, so take them back and try them." Song Langzhong nodded and believed her words.

Liu Meibao pulled Zhou Liangyu and the two walked out.

"Do you really want to buy it?" Zhou Liangyu asked in a low voice, and unconsciously pressed the money in the small pocket around his waist.

Liu Meibao originally just talked casually, but at this time, standing in the hall, facing the shop, just opened the door, a few guys were setting up stalls outside, looking at the persimmons that came out, she couldn't help swallowing her saliva.

It's been a long time since I've eaten a snack, and the most ordinary snack that I once disdained to eat a few more bites is now so out of reach.

"I don't know how much a pound is.." She couldn't help but say.

"Then go over and ask." Zhou Liangyu looked at her and smiled, and walked away.

"Forget it." Liu Meibao stretched out her hand to grab him, winked and smiled, "When this business is done, let's buy it again." ”

"That's not the same, buy it now." Zhou Liangyu said that he was still willing to let her eat it.

Liu Meibao pulled him and didn't let him, Zhou Liangyu finally smiled at her, and the two sat down by the door, looking at the street scene, while waiting for Song Langzhong, whispering and laughing, the haze in his heart gradually dissipated a lot.

The flow of people on the street gradually increased, and there was a man dressed in strict clothes who walked towards this side slowly, Liu Meibao and Zhou Liangyu didn't care, they still looked at the street scene and whispered.

"So you arrived, I thought you didn't come." The man stopped in front of them and spoke.

Liu Meibao and Zhou Liangyu looked at him at this time, and the person who came turned out to be Wang Liuqi, and the two of them hurriedly stood up.

"Uncle Wang, why did you come here in person?" Liu Meibao said with a smile.

Wang Liuqi looked at the girl's indifferent smiling face, and couldn't help nodding secretly in his heart, it was really calm enough.

In fact, he had long wanted Liu Meibao to identify the medicine, but if he eagerly invited her to come at that time, he was afraid that he would be raised the price.

Doing business, you must not let the other party know your true thoughts, the more you need her, the more you have to dry her, not to mention that you also know that this girl's family is not having a good time, presumably she must have been hanging her for so long before she was invited, she must be anxious, so that she does not overestimate her weight.

Unexpectedly, he had been waiting since yesterday, but it turned out that it was noon the next day, and no one had come. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point () to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. )
