Chapter 5 Dou Rice and a Few Dollars
It wasn't until the third day that Ran Yan finally woke up.
Ran Yan saw Wan Lu leaning on the edge of the couch and holding the medicine box in his arms, and his heart warmed slightly. Although she was in a coma these days, she was still conscious occasionally, and it happened that she heard the fact that Wu Xiuhe was not allowed to leave.
Now, being in Datang is already an ironclad thing, Ran Yan looked at Xing Niang and Wan Lu's sad faces, and she also felt that she couldn't go, so she made up her mind not to think about it anymore, and it was right to live well.
There was some noise faintly outside, Ran Yan didn't disturb Wan Lu, quietly got up and put on his clothes and collapsed, walked to the porch, put on his sandal shoes, tidied up his clothes, and followed the sound to find it.
Out of the yard, Ran Yan found that the Zhuangzi of Ran Mansion was not just her small courtyard, outside her courtyard was a large garden, there were a lot of weeds growing in the flower garden, which was obviously not often taken care of, and along the side of the road, there were a few houses, Daiwa white walls, which were very ordinary, and they were not as exquisite as her yard.
As he walked forward, the clearer the voice outside, and in the chaotic voice, the content of one or two sentences could be vaguely distinguished, all of which were Wu Nong's soft words, even the man's voice also carried a sense of tenderness, Ran Yan used to only speak Mandarin, but listening to the glutinous and soft accent, she could understand.
"Divine Doctor Wu, this chicken must be accepted!"
"Doctor Wu, this is the radish of the ummy family, don't dislike it."
……
Ran Yan suddenly remembered, it seems that Late Green and Xing Niang are not speaking Wu language, after thinking about it carefully, I realized that the original Ran clan can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period Ran Yong, and then there was a Ran Min in the Wei and Jin dynasties, and the Ran Wei regime was established in the Sixteen Kingdoms, Ran Yan's family is the descendant of Ran Yin, the son of Ran Min, who lived in Shanxi in his early years, and later moved to several places, all in the north, and only recently moved to the south.
Ran Yanwu thought to herself, and before she knew it, she had walked to a noisy place.
The noisy shouting at the gate stopped abruptly the moment Ran Yan appeared, and a few villagers at the door who were stuffing things into Wu Xiuhe's hands looked at Ran Yan, and even forgot the movements of their hands for a while.
Under the sun, Ran Yan wore a chest-length plain flower skirt, loosely covered with a satin coat on the outside, green silk was scattered, the delicate but pale face and ink-like hair set off each other, black and white were distinct, the beauty was extremely beautiful, but it was like a dark swamp, which made the viewer can't help but chill in the bottom of his heart.
When Wu Xiuhe saw Ran Yan, the wrinkles on his old face stretched out, and he told the porter to quickly put away the things, and then thanked the villagers in unison, before turning around and looking Ran Yan up and down, "Your complexion is better." ”
"Your skillful hands saved my life, I have nothing at the moment, I dare not say thank you, in the future, I will repay it!" Ran Yan knew that Wu Xiuhe was a pragmatic person, and it was better to give him a sincere promise than to say those heartfelt words of thanks.
Wu Xiuhe was stunned, and then stroked his beard and said with a smile, "I have tried my best to heal you for two years, and the emperor has lived up to his hard work, and you are now healed." ”
This high-ranking appearance, if it was the original Ran Yan, he would have been bluffed, but that Ran Yan was already dead.
"Lady!" Wan Lu hurriedly ran out with the medicine box, and when she saw Ran Yan, she breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Lady, this south is very different from the north, and there are many rules!" I'm afraid your description is not very good to be seen by outsiders! ”
Ran Yan wanted to say that she had been seen by outsiders, and there was more than one, but looking at the late green chatter, she was afraid that she would be endless, so she swallowed her words and lowered her head as if she was being taught.
Seeing the appearance of her little daughter-in-law, Wan Lu burst out laughing, "In the past, if the slave maid said a word more, the lady didn't want to listen, but now she is very well-behaved." ”
Clever? Ran Yan blinked, no one has commented on her for more than ten years!
Wan Lu looked at Ran Yan as if he was sad and sad in the past, and he was very happy in his heart.
The two owed Wu Xiuhe, and Wanlu returned the medicine box to Wu Xiuhe, and took them back to the backyard.
Wanlu looked around, and when she saw that there was no one, she said with confidence, "Lady, the hairpin was sold, and I got fifteen taels of silver, and I spent less than one tael to buy some rice grain, which was enough for us to eat for more than half a year, and it cost two taels of silver to catch the medicine." It's all good tonic. Then with a painful expression, he gritted his teeth, "The slave maid took it upon herself to buy some good medicinal materials for Divine Doctor Wu and sent them, and he liked this." ”
Ran Yan nodded, "This is as it should be." ”
Ran Yan thought about it carefully and thought about it, she still didn't have the slightest concept of fifteen taels of silver in her mind, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, the original owner was really a big lady who didn't know anything about the world, she couldn't live like this, so she asked, "How much rice can you buy with one tael of silver?" ”
Wan Lu felt uncomfortable, if her own lady was still in the main house, she should have learned housekeeping a long time ago, but now she didn't even know how much money she had......
Distressed to distressed, Wan Lu still said to Ran Yan very carefully, "One or two pieces of silver is consistent, that is, one thousand wen, and one bucket of rice is five wen." Ten buckets of rice is one stone, and one tael of silver can buy twenty stones of rice grain. This is still an ordinary year, if it is a bumper harvest, we Jiangnan Province rice grain three or four Wen and a bucket are also common. ”
Ran Yan nodded, one stone of rice is about fifty-nine kilograms, she knows this, but she didn't expect that one or two pieces of silver can buy more than a thousand kilograms of grain in Datang!
At the same time, he also sighed that the life of the ancient nobles was really luxurious, and a hairpin could be exchanged for so much food!
"The lady is not in good health, the slave maid bought some bishan rice, this bijaponica rice is produced in Hebei Province, there is no local area, it costs forty wen a bucket." Late Green sighed, most of the japonica rice is shipped to Chang'an to sell, and few are shipped to other places, and merchants are willing to send favors to the powerful mansions, so it is not only expensive, but also difficult to buy.
"Tsk, that's a pity." Evening Green suddenly sighed.
Ran Yan cast a questioning look at her.
Late Green Road, "The butterfly hairpin inlaid with gems is a pair, and a single purchase has lost a lot of money, if the lady pulls out the other one on the head of the eighteen mothers at that time, we can sell it for forty taels!" ”
Ran Yan burst out laughing, "You're really black-hearted!" ”
"A black heart is a black heart! The slave maid is just holding other people's money in her hands, and her heart is comfortable, but the lady is very powerful and has become a backlord! Evening Green remembered Ran Yan's courage of "Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his face did not change" a few days ago, and his eyes lit up with excitement.
Ran Yan smiled and let Wanlu chirp beside him, and entered the courtyard, the two took off their sandals under the porch, and stepped on the wooden floor with only plain socks, and the Japanese style inherited this style of the Tang Dynasty.
The livelihood problem has been solved, and Ran Yan's condition is also improving day by day, so there is a lot of joy in the small courtyard.
Wu Xiuhe somehow suddenly decided not to leave, someone gave him food and drink, and he no longer went to the city to sit in the hall, only occasionally went up the mountain to pick some herbs to enrich his private collection, and lived a good life.
The only few subordinates in the mansion only look at Zhuangzi and are not responsible for serving Ran Yan, so Xing Niang and Wanlu are busy and cannot be idle for a moment.
There is only Ran Yan's idle long grass, she used to be a workaholic, but there was no corpse for her to examine in the Tang Dynasty, so that after the collapse of the spiritual pillar, she was described as a little sluggish, although Xing Niang and Wanlu gave her a lot of ideas, but poetry and painting were not what Ran Yan liked, so she was still a little at a loss.
Holding the brush, write a dignified "quiet" word on the paper, Ran Yan began to be in a daze again, she not only inherited the memory of the original owner, but also inherited the skills, as for the level, Ran Yan is not very clear, only feels that this word is written upright and delicate, in her opinion, as long as the word can be in the eye, do not pursue anything else.
"Evening Green, I want to go out for a walk." Ran Yan put down the pen and looked at the evening green that was finally idle early in the morning.
"Doctor Wu said that your body is recovering well, and it's good to go out for a walk." Evening green is a refreshing one, just do it, and never turn a half-corner. As she said this, she quickly got up and took a power bulge and put it on for Ran Yan.
Most people in the world think that the Tang Dynasty is all about enlargement of breasts and fat buttocks, open and warm, but in fact, it is not, at least this is not the case in the early years of Zhenguan, women still need to cover up when they go out, and they can't show their faces to outsiders casually.
Mi Li seems to be a kind of hat, surrounded by soap yarn (black yarn), after wearing the whole body covered, the later appearance of the hood is the evolution of this Mi Li. Ran Yan felt quite fresh.
It was early in the morning, the heat had not yet risen, and the summer breeze was very comfortable with a slightly cool temperature.
Ran Yan stood on a small mound at the head of the village, looking down on the village, the traffic, the smoke curling, the occasional dog barking, a low house bathed in the orange morning light looked quiet and lively, the joy of reincarnation for the first time suddenly came to my heart.
Ran Yan breathed deeply, feeling this pure world, but many things suddenly appeared in her heart, that Ran Yan who was in the forensic world was dead, as for the murderer who killed her, I believe that she will be brought to justice soon.
Ran Yan is a strict person, and she has many confidential documents in her office, so she secretly installed a camera in the house, and when the police investigate, they will definitely be able to detect it. Assistant Zhang went back and got the document, there must be a record, plus the document in the safe, there were fingerprints on it, these two pieces of evidence alone were enough for the police to classify him as a major suspect, Ran Yan believed in the ability of Captain Li of the criminal investigation team, she would not die unjustly......
What is worrying is that she is in a bad situation now, so she has to think about how she should live in Datang from now on.
When to work? The elders of the Ran clan should have preferred her to die rather than agree, right? What's more, she still doesn't know if a woman can serve during the Zhenguan period, even if she can become a servant, I am afraid that no one will dare to ask for it in the future! Even though she loves the job of forensic medicine very much, she has to think about it objectively.
Singleness fell in the Tang Dynasty, and Ran Yan suddenly longed for the warmth of the family.
The opportunity gave her a chance to live again, Ran Yan felt that she should not go down the old path again, thinking that she still had medical skills, and felt that she could develop and develop, but her sudden medical skills were suspicious, so it was better to worship Wu Xiuhe as a teacher first......
Ran Yan felt that this idea was quite reliable, and after making up his mind, he sat for a while, and heard the village women start to call their children to eat one after another.
"Lady, let's go back too, shall we?" Late Greenway.
About Suzhou dialect, because it is more difficult to understand, I will not transliterate, and I will not either, only take a little of the characteristics of Suzhou dialect and use it, for the convenience of everyone to read, but also for the convenience of writing on the sleeve, everyone will turn a blind eye in the future.
