CHAPTER XLVI OPENING I
On the straight street that connects the north and the south, the big red lanterns hanging in the door of every house are swaying in the wind.
A corner of the earthen wall of a house is missing, and the terrain is very low, and the earthen wall is useless. But after all, there are some heights, and if you don't climb over sincerely, ordinary people can't see the scene inside.
Zhang Hatshui, who is accustomed to living on Fulu Street, has not been to this remote corner of the town for a long time, this is an outer city, and even the guards are weaker, because there are insignificant poor people living here.
Stepping on the dirt road that is different from the bluestone street, the girl urged Zhang Hatshui to walk quickly, very impatient.
Bo Qian squatted on the head of the earthen wall, with a weed in his mouth that had come from nowhere, and it was said that the toilet was quite vigorous.
"Hey, Little Master Li, you're back. Bo Qian straightened his weedy gray hair, jumped down from the wall, put his hands in his cuffs and ran towards the girl in green clothes, revealing a mouth full of yellow teeth.
The girl in Tsing Yi nodded, pushed Zhang Hatshui forward, and poked out the small hand hidden in the cuff and said, "Cash on delivery." ”
Bo Qian smiled: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”
After speaking, he groped out a tattered parchment book from his bosom and handed it to the girl with a painful face.
Who knew that the girl scolded angrily: "Get out, whoever wants your poetry collection, I'm going to see him." ”
Boqian scolded in a low voice for not knowing the goods, and nodded reluctantly.
He seemed to be a little unhappy, so he rubbed his chin, looked Zhang Hatshui up and down as if he was looking at a work of art, and said, "It's so miserable." ”
Zhang Hatshui clamped his slightly bent legs, broke out in a cold sweat in pain, and said angrily: "Shi Ke can not be humiliated, the girl uses such a yin method, and she also called an old beggar to disgust me, I have the ability to fight alone!"
The girl in Tsing Yi and Bo Qian smiled helplessly.
"Are you coming or am I coming?"
"Let's do it, I've never seen such a request in my life. ”
Zhang Hatshui raised his eyebrows, like a quail being forced into a corner, screaming again and again.
Sent a letter to Shilipo.
There are too many things today, and people are tired quickly, so Bai Thirteen fell asleep very early.
I slept until the next morning, and it was just dawn.
Knock knock, knock knock!!
There was a sharp knock on the door.
Bai Shisan opened his eyes suddenly, straightened up from the bed, and looked out the door.
"Who!"
"It's me, Mo Nian. Go and take a look, the property that Sun Fu secretly left to the young lady has been discovered. ”
Bai Shisan hurriedly got out of bed and went over to open the door, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw Mo Nian's face flushing anxiously.
"Okay, I'll go!" he reached out and patted Mo Nian's back, giving him a smooth breath.
There is a pharmacy in Washington and a silk shop specially made for large families, the former can earn a few taels of silver a day, and the latter is not open for half a year, and it is open for half a year.
Because there are no big families with heads and faces along the mountain city, like the shop that Hua Yingying frequented in the past, it is enough to monopolize the entire high-class clothing chain along the mountain city.
The rest of the business was divided among other shops, as was the case with the silk shop in Washington.
But fortunately, the silk shop belongs to the Sun Mansion, otherwise, even if the Sun Mansion is a little selfish, the rest of the peers don't want to get a little business.
These two properties are not very far from the Golden Jade Flower Workshop, but Mo Nian is still out of breath when he runs over, and he is a little out of breath.
Bai Shisan is sometimes really worried that his hard-working little brother will one day leave quietly like his head-hunting father.
The two hurried out of the house, and when they passed by a small garden, they saw Sun An looking at a frozen pool in the Golden Jade Flower Workshop with his hands behind his back and frowning, and the falling snow seemed to dye his hair a little whiter.
"Let's go. Bai Thirteen paused for a moment and sighed softly.
Mo Nian followed closely and stopped a carriage on the street, and the two of them sat on it.
The carriage hurried, and hurriedly turned into a street corner that was second only to Fulu Street in prosperity, and from a distance, Bai Shisan saw that the entrance of the pharmacy in Washington was full of people, and he was about to smash the store.
"What's going on?" Bai Thirteen looked at the bustling crowd and asked the little guy in the store.
The little guy kept wiping the sweat on his head with the white cotton towel in his hand, and made amends to the troublemakers one by one.
The man was tall, with a fierce body and a fierce face.
He said angrily, "You are the owner of this pharmacy?"
The crowd surrounded Bai Thirteen, leaving an empty seat in the middle, and two double knives with animal skin sheaths hung from the waist of the sturdy man, and the tips of the last knives glowed with cold light.
Bai Shisan's face did not change, nodded and said, "Yes, I don't know why Brother Tai is angry?"
"Why am I angry? Look at the quack doctor in your shop who showed my father, after a few pairs of medicines, my father vomited and diarrhea, and his abdominal pain did not stop!" The big man pushed everyone away and pointed to the old man with a beard who was resting and moaning in the store, and his anger could not be concealed.
Bai Shisan hurriedly rushed into the store to find out the situation of the old man, it stands to reason that the people who watched the pharmacy were all masters, and they would not make mistakes.
"Are you sure you saw someone from the Ning family?" Bai Thirteen pulled Mo Nian aside and asked in a low voice.
Mo Nian nodded vigorously, he was not an employee of the store in the first place, but he happened to pass by, and he saw that Ning Ke's group of doglegs were sneakily talking to the big man, as if provoking.
Bai Thirteen took a deep breath.
"It's the Ning family again, knowing that they can't occupy it, so they want to take someone else's hand and make the reputation of the pharmacy stink. ”
"Can you show me the old man's situation?" Bai Thirteen's eyes were sincere.
The big man raised his eyebrows angrily, and just as he wanted to say something, he was stopped by the old man and reprimanded: "After walking the rivers and lakes for so many years, don't listen to the wind and rain." ”
The big man looked at his father, sighed helplessly, and said viciously to Bai Shisan: "My knife is very fast, you'd better not play tricks, otherwise I will make you unable to run away from the monk or the temple!"
"Don't worry, you are not the only one who buys the medicines in the store, and if it is really a drug problem, the old man will not be the only one who suffers. If it's artificial, I think the old man is frank, and no one in my shop has ever intersected with you, let alone Liangzi, why do you want to harm your father?"
The big man was silent, he had been wandering in the rivers and lakes for half of his life, and in the end he didn't make a difference, and rushed back to his hometown with a disgraced face.
When I got home, I saw my father guarding a thatched hut that was not sheltered from the wind and cold, living a life of not having enough food and clothing.
The big man who had rebelled for half his life finally repented and knelt in front of his blind father and cried like a child.
took out the little savings on his body, and wanted to prescribe medicine for his father to recuperate his body, but he never thought that his father would have unbearable abdominal pain and unspeakable pain as soon as he ate it.
With a debt to his father for half his life, Dahan himself is a fierce man who kills people without blinking, and he kills the pharmacy in a rage.
Now that I have calmed down, I feel that what my father and Bai Shisan said is indeed reasonable.
Bai Shisan gave the old man a pulse, and Mo Nian and the old pharmacist on the side never thought that he still had this hand.
Among them, the level of proficiency seems to have been immersed in the medical Tao for many years.
"My uncle's pulse is normal. ”
"Then why does my father have unbearable abdominal pain? Could it be that you are a little ghost who has not grown any hair, and you frame me for framing you? How much medical skills can you know at your age? If you talk nonsense, don't blame me for bullying the small. ”
Bai Shisan didn't answer, looking at the old man who was covering his abdomen and was about to fall into a coma, his mind was dull.
"Master Wu, those herbs you caught for this old man?" Bai Shisan asked, turning his head.
"They are all mild-tempered, and I am careful and careful about the measurement and medicine, and I am picking and choosing, and there is no way there can be a problem. ”
Master Wu hurriedly said, hurriedly turned around and grabbed a few medicinal herbs from the mahogany medicine cabinet behind him, and handed them to Bai Shisan. He has practiced medicine all his life in the mountain city, and he is extremely reluctant to lose his reputation when he is old.
"It's really no problem, dare to ask if the old man has seen anyone or eaten anything in the past few days?" Bai Shisan put a few pieces of medicinal herbs in his mouth, chewed it, and spit it out, there was no problem, it was not a matter of medicinal herbs.
In his previous life, as a top student in medical school, he can be said to be all-round, and is known as a rare genius in a century. He chose surgery not only for surgery, but for only one subject.
Dahan thought for a while and said truthfully: "My father hasn't seen anyone, but a few days ago, I went to the street to buy food, and I was shy in my pocket. I met a kind man who bought fish and sold it to me at half price. ”
Bai Thirteen frowned, and then said, "What kind of fish is that vendor?"
Dahan and Bai Shisan looked at each other, and their hearts were not good, and they hesitated: "You mean that there is something wrong with that peddler?" But my father has been loyal and good all his life and has never offended anyone. Even if I have provoked a few thieves while walking the rivers and lakes before, it is impossible to get to the mountains first. If they want to kill me, they will intercept me halfway, and if they are poisoned, why am I okay?"
"There are strange things, even if they are small, and they are worth investigating. ”
Bai 13 asked the little guy in the pharmacy to go to the place where the big man bought fish to ask, and after a cup of tea passed, the little guy hurriedly returned.
"Childe found out, the fish vendor didn't come out of the stall today. And the surrounding vendors also looked at him, and the one who used to be in that stall was a middle-aged man who looked generous. ”
Immediately afterwards, the vendor took out the leftover fish heads and tails of the day, and some buyers would ask the stall owner to cut off the useless parts and take them with him.
Dahan was disgusted with the narrow head of the fish that day, and the taste was bad when cooked, so he asked the fish vendor to cut off the head and tail.
The old doctor saw that he had lived more than a mile in the hands of the little man, and he was well-informed, and said straightly: "I know this kind of fish, they live in active volcanic areas, they are extremely heat-resistant, and although ordinary cooking can kill them, the meat is raw and cold." It's not that it's inedible, it's just that it's mostly used for roasting. ”
The big man patted the table and said awe-inspiringly: "Old man, I've seen some of the market, why haven't I heard of your kind of rhetoric?"
Doctor Wu blew his beard and glared a little, and he didn't care about the obscenity of the big man, and said directly: "This is unique to the Northland, who will go to the active volcanic area where ordinary people fish and don't know when it erupts!
Dahan looked at the bustling crowd outside, but did not hear the words of dissatisfaction with the old doctor, and felt that he was wrong, so he had to mumble a few words angrily.
