Chapter 67: A Heart for Growing Melons
Little Peach met hooligans in the alley, and the less people knew about it, the better.
After all, it's about the reputation of a girl who hasn't left the cabinet.
Knowing that Xiao Taohong wanted to do nail business, on the way to the town, Wen Ning copied some routines of modern nail salons, combined with reality, and talked to Xiao Taohong.
Little Peach looked like she was suddenly open, full of worship for her good sisters.
As soon as she arrived in Xinghua Town, Xiao Taohong waved to Wen Ning and got out of the car, and Wen Ning accompanied her brothers and brothers to Nanshan Academy first.
The people of Baifu, Wen Ning is also the most familiar with Bai Cangcang, Bai Cangcang is also a student of Nanshan Academy, generally speaking, he can be found in the academy.
Coincidentally, when he went to the academy, Wen Ning was told that the son of Baifu was at home due to illness and did not go to school today.
Wen Ning is embarrassed, isn't this an excuse that everyone often makes if they don't want to study?
The three brothers of Wen Shi were much more sincere, and the youngest Wen Li asked more: "Huh?" Brother Cangcang is sick, I think he was fine yesterday! ”
Wen Li didn't mean anything else, the children in the village heard that he could go to school, so they didn't envy him, he didn't know that there would be people who wanted to pretend to be sick and ask for leave because they didn't want to study.
The concierge of the academy replied in the affirmative.
Bai Cangcang couldn't be found in the academy, and Wen Ning had to go to Bai Mansion.
You must know that the hierarchy in ancient times was strict, and most of the rules in the Gaomen compound were complicated, Wen Ning was a small peasant girl, and now let her go to Baifu alone, she was a little stunned.
But the elder brothers and younger brothers wanted to study, so they couldn't delay the time, so Wen Ning had to muster up the courage to go alone.
After thanking the gatekeeper of the academy, seeing his brothers and brothers enter the academy, Wen Ning went to Baifu.
Wen Cheng saw that Xiaomei was uncomfortable, but as soon as he proposed to accompany her to Baifu, he was refuted by the other party's fierce rebuttal.
He also knew that the family had hollowed out the foundation for the three of them to study, and he should indeed focus on reading.
Nanshan Academy is not too far from Baifu, and Wenning walks over in about ten minutes.
Along the way, Wen Ning is doing psychological construction for herself, she has to behave calmly, and she must have a sense of mystery when she can come up with a healing potion.
When it came to the healing potion, Wen Ning thought about it for a while, and felt that she shouldn't be afraid of class in the first place, her healing potion was equivalent to a miracle medicine, what was she afraid of?
The appearance of the strange shadow revealed Wen Zishu's identity in Kyoto, and the setting of more killers made Wen Ning, who now has nothing, feel afraid.
After taking a few deep breaths, Wen Ning calmed down and happened to see the gate of the White Mansion.
Two stone lions symbolizing the status of Baifu stand at the door of Baifu on the left and right, blue bricks and red tiles, on the square plaque, the word Baifu, the dragon flies and the phoenix dances.
Wen Ning marveled at the grandeur of the White Mansion, walked to the door of the mansion, held the copper lock and slapped it a few times, and called: "Is there anyone?" ”
Soon, there was movement in the White Mansion, the door was opened a crack, and an old man asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”
Immediately afterwards, another voice came from the house that was somewhat familiar to Wen Ning: "Who?" The young master didn't go out today, so he shouldn't have gotten into trouble. ”
Wen Ning: ......
Just as the owner of the second voice also came over, Wen Ning looked at the other party and replied to the words of the first old housekeeper: "I'm looking for the white and pale son." ”
The owner of the second voice was the steward who had organized the search for the Wen family before, and he was stunned when he saw Wen Ning, and soon, he guessed that the other party was afraid that there was any new progress in the potion, so he immediately opened the door and invited Wen Ning in.
"Big brother, let her in quickly, I'll go find the young master!"
As he spoke, the man had already galloped into the courtyard.
Seeing that the other party was so old, and his legs and feet were so neat, Wen Ning was amazed.
The old housekeeper, who was called Big Brother, took Wen Ning and walked slowly into the courtyard.
"Let the girl laugh, my brother is a little frizzy in doing things."
Wen Ning nodded with a smile and didn't speak.
Fortunately, Bai Cangcang, who was said to be sick today and couldn't go to the academy, ran out of the back room alive.
"Little sister, you're here!" Bai Cangcang said in a familiar tone, probably knowing what Wen Ning would be confused about, and he also explained: "My eldest brother and I have become brothers of the opposite sex, you are their little sister, and you are also my little sister." ”
Wen Ning: ......
Wen Ning wanted to ignore Bai Cangcang's natural familiarity, but he couldn't help it, and said more: "Are you as old as my second brother?" My second brother and I are twins. ”
Bai Cangcang scratched his head and said innocently: "In this way, I am younger than the second brother, then I will call you sister like Ah Li, sister!" ”
Wen Ning was defeated, and she took out the jar containing the healing potion from her bosom and handed it out.
"This is the healing potion you wanted, just like last time. My eldest brother was able to go to Nanshan Academy to study, thanks to the help of Baifu. ”
As soon as he heard the healing potion, Bai Cangcang was excited, a magical potion! His cousin's leg was saved!
Seeing that Bai Cangcang was happy, Wen Ning continued: "I came today to ask if Bai Fu had found the grass plant painted on my drawings. ”
At this time, the steward who shouted Bai Cangcang just now came out with a plate of fruit from the backyard, and Wen Ning's eyes were straight.
It turned out to be a watermelon!
It's summer, the season when you should eat melons, but Wen Ning has searched all the small vendors, and she hasn't seen any fruits, let alone watermelons.
And the White House has!
Sure enough, it was a wealthy mansion, and Wen Ning was envious at this moment.
In addition to the watermelon on the plate, there is also a circle of grapes around it.
Speaking of the grass plants on the drawings, Bai Cangcang was also ashamed, "Sister, you eat melons first." Fengque Cao, I have asked my people to look for it, but there has really been no movement, and the major pharmacies have also said that there is no such medicine. ”
He pushed the fruit bowl towards Wen Ning.
After listening to Bai Cangcang's words, Wen Ning at least knew that there was indeed no habit of using phoenix finch grass in medicine in this world.
And Baifu also sent people to look for it everywhere, but there was also no harvest, it seems that the phoenix bird grass is indeed hard to find.
Wen Ning was depressed, if she couldn't find Fengque grass, she couldn't make money easily.
She took a bite of the watermelon on the plate, turned her grief and anger into appetite, and paused as she spit out the melon seeds.
Watermelon......
She can grow watermelons and sell them!
"Sister, don't be upset, eat more watermelon to extinguish the fire, what kind of phoenix finch grass, many people have been dispatched to my house but have not found it, alas, we have tried our best."
Wen Ning nodded and asked, "Well, if you can't find the phoenix grass, don't look for it, I want to ask, is this watermelon very expensive?" ”
Bai Cangcang was stunned, but he still nodded sincerely.
"Watermelons are not only expensive, but also rare! My watermelon was given by my cousin, sister, you can eat more. ”
Hearing the preciousness of watermelon, Wen Ning became even more determined to plant melons, "Can you give me the remaining seeds of this watermelon?" ”
