Chapter 57: A Pile of Old Medicine
Yi Mingxue was talking to Miss Lin Er.
It happened that her maid came to look for someone.
When the maid saw her young lady's new clothes, she was stunned for a while.
"Second Miss...... This new dress looks so good! ”
Miss Lin Er was also very satisfied, turned around in front of the attendant, and said, "How is it?" You won't be embarrassed for my dad on the eighth day of next month, right? ”
The maid hurriedly held her up and replied with a smile, "Master Yicheng will definitely be satisfied." ”
Only then did Yi Mingxue know that Miss Lin Er was actually the daughter of Yicheng.
Although the post is not a big official, he controls the accommodation and communication between the various post stations in the jurisdiction.
Runners like Yi Mingxue are even more under the jurisdiction of Yicheng.
If the other party does not agree to you live in the inn, you will have to sleep in the wilderness.
Today can be regarded as a mistake, crookedly beaten.
Yi Mingxue was already preparing to leave.
Thinking that she might deal with her again in the future, she simply helped her pick out a few matching pieces of jewelry.
Not to mention, Yi Mingxue's eyes are indeed vicious.
As soon as the set of powdered peach blossoms was decorated, Miss Lin Er was lined with more and more brilliance.
However, in just a few teas, the little girl became very dependent on Yi Mingxue.
I even wanted to invite her to my house for lunch.
However, Yi Mingxue politely refused.
She had an important business to do, and she couldn't afford to delay it any longer.
After leaving Yixiangfang, Yi Mingxue went directly to Changshu Rice Village.
The person who connected with her was actually a beggar begging for food outside Changshu Rice Village.
After the other party confirms that the thing is correct.
also asked her cautiously, "You didn't peek, did you?" ”
Yi Mingxue took ten taels of silver from a beggar.
This scene is a little weird.
She didn't bother to explore, and said directly, "My purpose is just to make money, besides, didn't you just check the fire paint seal on the box?" ”
The beggar gave her a heavy look and warned.
"Watch your mouth, don't talk nonsense when you shouldn't be saying!"
Yi Mingxue nodded and left one step ahead of the other party.
……
The bluestone slab paths are staggered.
The roof tiles are flat and the flow of people is crowded.
Her trip to the county seat was really not in vain.
not only received the errand of transporting grain and grass for the army, but also helped the second Yi gently open up the way to Yixiangfang.
By the way, I also made friends with Master Zhu's family, as well as Miss Lin Er, Judge Chen and others.
No, I also got ten taels of silver.
Yi Mingxue met with Second Uncle Li at the agreed tea stall.
He took a few dollars from Yi Mingxue, but he didn't buy a bowl of tea to drink.
Instead, I bought a few packets of snacks and some rice and noodles for the two children in the family.
Yi Mingxue is not a stingy person.
When even if he paid his monthly money for this month in advance, he said.
"Our first job was completed smoothly, and I will advance a month's salary to you in advance. Let's come out after we go back this time, and we are going to start the work of delivering food and grass to the army! When the time comes, you may not be able to go home for several months, so you should buy more things for your home. ”
Second Uncle Li originally wanted to refuse, but Yi Mingxue was right.
And he really didn't have much money on himself, so he just advanced a few days in advance.
As long as you work hard, there is nothing you can't get with this money.
Seeing Second Uncle Li on the road, Yi Mingxue was naturally happy.
Her eye for people is still accurate, and Second Uncle Li is a good employee.
After having the money, the two went to the market to sweep around.
They now have horse-drawn carriages, and many large items that were difficult to buy in the past dare to start.
Yi Mingxue bought a few bookcases for a few small ones at home, and picked a wider tailoring cabinet for Yi Qing.
Thinking of Yi Tianlei grinding small stones to make bullets all day long, she simply bought him a few buckets of small iron arrows.
She planned to repair the house, so she bought herself a set of tools to handy.
There are a lot of seven, seven, eight, and eight, and in the end, it only cost less than two taels of silver.
When passing by a pharmacy.
She was sharp-eyed to find that there was a small servant processing a pile of waste medical books and bamboo slips in batches.
Yi Mingxue's eyes narrowed.
Not to mention that she almost forgot, the fifth child was a genius in the original book.
Since ancient times, medicine and poison have not been separated.
In order to prevent him from going down the wrong path in the later stage, and not to waste his talent.
How about guiding him to the doctor's path?
Just do it!
Yi Mingxue walked over without hesitation and said politely to the little guy with a feather duster.
"Little brother, are these books of yours going to be scrapped?"
The little guy was impatient to do this, so the tone of his speech was a little bad.
"Not really! This pile of has been piling up in the backyard for decades! Tell me that you can cook a meal even if you burn it! If you prefer our shopkeeper, you have to ask me to clean it up and donate it to the Volunteer Medical Hall! ”
Yi Mingxue picked up a copy and saw that although the dust on the bamboo slip was very thick, some of the hemp rope on the bamboo pieces was also broken.
However, the text on the bamboo slips is engraved, and it only needs to be cleaned out and re-applied with a layer of ink.
These books do not affect reading at all.
So, she asked the little maid, "Can you shopkeeper be in the store?" I want to buy all of these books. ”
"What are you buying this pile of for? If you want to buy books, you can go to the study on Yong'an Lane next door. The books there are all new, and there are straw paper, snowflake paper, etc., at all price points, you can choose. ”
Yi Mingxue shook her head, "No, I just want you to have these." ”
At this time, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy walked out.
Hearing her words, he asked curiously, "Is there someone in the family who practices medicine?" ”
"Yes, my fifth brother is four years old. He was gifted and obsessed with the art of medicine. ”
Who knew that when the shopkeeper heard this, he smiled and waved his hand.
"Four? Then it's useless for you to take these books back! These are reference books for intermediate doctors and pharmacists, and they are not suitable for your brother at all. ”
"Hmm-" Yi Mingxue thought about it for a moment, "It's okay, I'll buy him some beginners later." You were also planning to donate, I can give money to buy it! ”
The shopkeeper saw that she insisted.
Thinking that more is better than less, I agreed.
After all, the Yiyi Hall is now withered and depressed, and even if he donates it, it will probably be just a change of place to eat ashes.
Yi Mingxue paid very happily.
and called Second Uncle Li to help her move the pile of books to the cart.
The two of them were busy for most of the day before they were ready to go home.
When I returned to Master Zhu's house.
Zhu Tingmao also returned from the county office.
He reported the places of the ten board cars he had found one by one.
Now just wait for the county master to gather the first batch of materials, and then he can officially start working.
Yi Mingxue's plan was that she would have to follow her on the first trip.
But in the future, she will be fully responsible for the second uncle Li.
On this trip, not only Zhu Tingmao led the team, but also people in the barracks opened the way to escort the team.
Nothing can happen.
Give it to Second Uncle Li, she can rest assured!
