Chapter 9: Selling ointments
Lin Mianmian turned around, only to find that Lin Yin had woken up and was looking at her coldly.
She showed the bamboo basket full of bamboo, "I'm going to dig up herbs, I'm going to make some medicine and sell it to the villagers, maybe I can earn ten taels of silver." β
"Eldest sister, don't run out without saying a word in the future." Lin Yin's face turned pale and said, "I'm not worried about you, but ...... It may be troublesome to not find you. β
"Yes, yes."
"Hmph, I really didn't care about you, it's just that that fool started making trouble again in the afternoon." Lin Yin said, "Without you, we can't control him, so we didn't dare to open the door, just put him in the storage room." β
Oops-
Lin Mianmian then remembered Leng Feibai, who had been ignored by himself all day.
She hurriedly walked into the back room and pushed open the door to the pantry.
Leng Feibai was already curled up in the corner of the wall, leaning against the wall and falling asleep.
It's so cold here, Leng Feibai can actually sleep!
But the sound of Lin Mianmian pushing the door in woke Leng Feibai up.
He stood up instantly, his eyes showing hostility.
"Don't be afraid, it's me." Lin Mianmian adjusted a gentle smile, for fear of stimulating him, "You still remember me, don't you?" We've seen it in the morningβ"
Leng Feibai looked at Lin Mianmian and tilted his head, as if he was curious.
"It's cold in this storage room, I'll let you out here, okay?" Lin Mianmian's eyes were soft and firm, "However, you have to promise me one thing, and that is - don't make trouble." β
Leng Feibai looked at Lin Mianmian like this, and he didn't speak.
Lin Mianmian has always had doubts in her heart, that is: Leng Feibai is not crazy or stupid, he is most likely pretending.
And Leng Feibai listened to her words, his eyes sank for a moment, and his expression suddenly became no different from that of a normal person.
In order to see his reaction clearly, Lin Mianmian hurriedly took a few more steps, and there was a door open behind him.
"Leng Feibai, you-"
When it was too late, a white light slipped out of Lin Mianmian and rushed out of the door.
Leng Feibai's speed is so fast!
Lin Mianmian was stunned and hurriedly followed.
Leng Feibai happened to confront the three brothers and sisters of the Lin family silently, and the air was full of tense atmosphere.
Leng Feibai's eyes were cold and harsh, and he was emotionless.
And Lin Yin was worried that he would hurt Lin Baobao and Lin Huahua, and the whole person was like a hen.
Smack!
In the next second, Lin Huahua suddenly grabbed Leng Feibai's hand, "White hair!" β
Leng Feibai's eyes widened in surprise.
"Your hair is so pretty!" Lin Huahua grabbed Leng Feibai and had to braid him with braids, "Let me weave it for you!" β
The originally serious atmosphere eased, and to Lin Mianmian's surprise, Leng Feibai didn't resist at all, allowing Lin Huahua to ruffle his long hair like snow.
Soon, Leng Feibai became Lin Huahua's exclusive toy and was braided.
Lin Baobao also wanted to touch it, but Lin Huahua "snapped" his hand.
"Don't touch! This is my toy! β
Lin Mianmian's hanging heart relaxed, it seems that her second uncle and younger siblings get along well.
That way, she can concentrate on the herbs as well.
She plans to make the herbs into ointments for internal and external application and sell them to the villagers.
Lin Yin watched her get busy, and struggled to get up, wanting to help.
"If you rest here, you'll do me a favor." Lin Mianmian held down Lin Yin, "Otherwise, the place where I stitched you up is cracked, what should I do?" β
Hearing this, Lin Yin didn't move, but whispered to Lin Baobao and Lin Huahua not to play that fool, and to hurry up to help the eldest sister do things.
The two dolls reluctantly let Leng Feibai go.
Lin Mianmian instructed, "The baby is responsible for washing, and the tweed is responsible for cutting." β
"Eldest sister, I'll leave the matter of making medicine." Lin Yin said in a low voice.
Lin Mianmian looked at him and handed over the medicine jar in his hand.
They washed, chopped, and mashed the herbs, and the smell of blades of grass filled the room.
Leng Feibai, who was on the side, left the room, he found a corner to stay, his face was quiet, and his hair had been braided into thin braids.
They worked until the middle of the night to make more than two dozen boxes of ointment.
On the second day, Lin Mianmian carried these ointments, led Lin Baobao and Lin Huahua, and went to the village to sell these ointments together.
"Selling ointments ββ!"
"Plaster ββ!"
Lin Baobao and Lin Huahua blushed and helped Lin Mianmian sell.
And they shouted for a while, but no one came to buy it.
But there are many people watching from afar. They pointed at Lin Mianmian, and when she got closer, the people ran away in panic.
Lin Mianmian thought for a moment, she now has a reputation as a miracle doctor, and it stands to reason that the ointment should be very good, but those villagers are afraid of her, and they don't even dare to get close to her by half a step!
Now, what should I do?
"Big sister......" Lin Baobao cried with a sad face.
"It's over, no one dares to buy it......" Lin Huahua's expression was even worse.
They walked around the village and did not sell a single box until the sun set.
Lin Mianmian thought hard and suddenly had a plan.
She went to the side of the road to buy a hanging of pork belly, carried the meat, and took the ointment, and went to the house of the village chief Wu Xu.
"Yo, Lin Mianmian, why do you have time to come here?" Wu Xu looked at the pork belly and was stunned, "Give me a gift, this is the first time in more than ten years!" β
Lin Mianmian said what he meant, Wu Xu groaned for a long time, but still agreed.
"I can help you sell you those ointments, but I'm not for your sake, but for Huahua's sake." Wu Xu sniffed the ointment, "What is this cure?" β
Anyway, with Wu Xu's help, Lin Mianmian finally put her mind at ease.
Now the villagers who are afraid of her can bypass her and buy ointment from the village chief.
At this time, Wu Xu asked again: "How is Leng Feibai, that guy?" You guy, have you already played him to death? β
"What kind of person am I in your hearts!" Lin Mianmian snorted, "He's alive and well, if you don't believe it, you can see it yourself!" β
As she spoke, she remembered one more thing.
"In my memory, when Leng Feibai came here, you saved him first." Lin Mianmian asked in a low voice, "At that time, what was the situation?" β
Wu Xu was a little surprised, but soon said:
In the winter of that year, when Wu Xu went to collect firewood in the snow, he happened to encounter Leng Feibai, who was covered in blood.
At that time, he couldn't bear it, so he found a barefoot doctor and gave Leng Feibai a simple treatment.
Unexpectedly, Leng Feibai actually came over and lived in Xinghua Village from then on.
"Do you know, according to the barefoot doctor......" Wu Xu said softly, "Leng Feibai's body is all injured by sharp weapons. β
